We’ve all heard about the “glass ceiling”, but what about the “glass cliff” that pretty much sets women and people of color up for failure? @research_usu’s Christy Glass explains how it works:

For a lot of women — and especially women of color — Claudine Gay’s landmark appointment as Harvard’s first Black president feels like another case of women getting much-deserved leadership opportunities as their institutions face a profound crisis, says @ProfMMurray:

House Dems will release Donald Trump’s long-sought-after tax returns. And while it may be a few years late, the ex-president “did not get away with not showing the American public his taxes,” @DelPercioS says: “It always catches up to you."
