"It's funny no one's picked up on the Stephen Miller connection," Spencer says. "I knew him very well when I was at Duke. But I am kind of glad no one's talked about this because I don't want to harm Trump."
Yet he's talking to perhaps the most famous lefty magazine in the States? Interesting, though, that Miller has Trump's ear and Spencer is an email away.

No, he didn't: "Trump made one more major financial deal on the hotel. A year after signing the lease with the federal government, he put that very lease up as collateral to secure a $170 million construction loan from Deutsche Bank. If Trump doesn’t finish his hotel or if he defaults on payments, the bank could take over the lease, according to the terms of the loan, just as a bank would take over the mortgage on a home when the owner falls behind on payments."

I define para-expertise as the experiential, embodied, and tacit knowledge that does not translate into the vocabulary or skills of disciplinary expertise
para-expertise.
-
The concept of para-expertise may help to resituate how we conceptualize, teach, and use notions of expertise in the classroom, since it can teach nonexperts to pursue rhetorical action through strategic expertise allianceswithout overstepping the very real limitations of nonexpertise. As a pedagogical approach, this articulation may also help students better understand the work of expert interactions among audiences, texts, and themselves as novices
-
The pedagogical aim of such a course is thus to increase students’ own expertise in writing studies.
Which is a major shift.
-
In their landmark studies, Flower and Hayes conclude that “novice” writers differ from “good” writers in the way novice writers fail to construct a problem in the same ways as expert writers. Novice writers tend to repeatedly read a prompt in hopes of finding some kind of direction for the writing situation. Meanwhile, “good” writers use the writing prompt as a way to articulate and define their own understanding of the rhetorical situation to which they are responding.

Yet it is also embedded in judgment. The rhetor who collects, archives, traces, or inquires does not give up any claims to judgment (krisis).
Key point.
-
Consider how many assign-ments in our most common courses (lower-level and introductory writing and speaking classes) reflect a pedagogical assumption that students should feel something prior to writing, speaking, or producing a rhetorical text.
Indeed. She has totally changed my thinking on this. What do you think?
-
This pedagogy of inquiry asks students to develop a different kind of relation to place, crisis, and discourse. Inquiry becomes a habit, not a precursor to anything else. It does not matter whether one feels injured by the changes or has authentic memory or feel-ings about the changes, or whether the changes have some kind of decidable value. In fact, it does not matter whether one cares or does not care about the issue at hand. What matters is the challenge of inquiry itself.
I love this and would love to discuss the counters.
-
Rather, actor-network theory is more about how we are within a process. While we may not be conscious of the networks we inhabit, we are aware of the networks through a kind of embodied knowledge that is reflected in our behavioral adjustments.

Its empiricism does not displace its potential to serve activist goals.
This is an important point. A major criticism of Actor Network Theory and Object-Oriented Ontology is just this. This is a big move, and a welcome one, in my opinion.
-
Where a question, exigence, or crisis exists, the inquirer's approach to this scene is not yoked with his or her own feelings.
Because if it is just feelings, then we become exclusionary. We read ourselves out of possibility.
-
In class, we flipped through the yellowing pages of racist literature and the counterliterature that fought back.
I love the idea of having students find "counter" narratives, exposing them.
-
How such memories are "stored" and "indexed" is apt to become more complicated in the digital age, which has interesting con-sequences for how we publicly remember and think about racism.
I think this would excellent to discuss with our students. How archives shape us.
-
The world that is constitutively written in their project is a multiple, complex, and untotalizable one.

As a result, students will begin to see rhetoric as an adaptive process that requires a proliferation of methods at every instant.

s. It is no surprise then that institutionalized writing is steadily moving away from the essay as the universal proving ground for student writers, and towards teaching to write effectively in a variety of genres students can expect to work in as they leave college for the workforce. This shift from writing as a single, universal skill to writing as multiple and genre-based is both potentially liberating and potentially disenfranchising.

Instead of a pedagogy of heuristics, which presupposes interiority, Hawk argues for the importance of “ecology and immersion,” in which students gain a greater understanding of their rhetorical presence as multivalent, existing from moment to moment, in connection with other bodies and technologies
As opposed to "synchronic."

Hawk further argues that as the proliferation of communication technologies continue to fracture our understanding of what is good and effective writing, it no longer makes sense to teach texts as if they are strictly the product of a dialectic between writer and audience.

Here’s a thought exercise I sometimes give my students. How many times a day do you use Google to search for something? Do you even think about it? I know I don’t. I once lost my glasses and tried to Google them. I’m serious. So you google something, and you get a page of results. How often do you stop to think about what those results mean? Where they came from? What you’re seeing and what’s being hidden from you? Who decides this? We all know there’s an algorithm behind search. Was it written on stone tablets and handed down from on high?
Great questions for us to think about.

By embodying a model of urban space divorced from the spatial history of the city and from the spatial practices of the rural communities whose former inhabitants were immigrating in ever-greater numbers to the city, the new underground made visible the radical transformation occurring everywhere.

Cabrini-Green’s design actively discouraged civic engagement through the lack ofopen and safe public space, as well as the neighborhood’s lack of diversity. Residents had nophysical place in which to inhabit their civic roles, yet they also experienced very little ethnic,racial, or class differences that might spark deliberation.

But that’s not why Brown was so giddy. The Ohio Democrat and 41-year political veteran was excited about a new labor rule he and Biden had come to Ohio to champion — a provision that, starting Dec. 1, will expand eligibility for overtime pay for certain professional workers earning less than $47,476.Business groups griped about it, Republican lawmakers threatened to block it, and most Americans probably missed its unveiling. But for Brown, it was a capstone in his decades-long crusade for the working class — a policy change he said would put more money in the pockets of millions of low-income Americans.“There are 134,000 Ohioans and 4 million Americans who will benefit directly from this,” Brown said.
Just another reason why this election is not about legislative policy, but reinforcing and solidifying these types of executive actions.

Smith and Lybarger. Makes sense, but I guess I don't see how this pushes Fish's Reader Response, for example. It doesn't seem new, I guess.

Whereas Bitzer suggests that the rhetor discovers exigencies that already exist, Vatz argues that exigencies are created for audiences through the rhetor's work.
Bitzer="discovers" exigence. Vatz="created" exigence.

sender-receiver models of public communication tend to identify a kind of homeostatic relationship, which simultaneously abstracts the operation of social links and circulation. The triangle of sender, receiver, text misses the concatenations that come to constitute Warner's version of a public.
Is this like saying s-r-t limits an object's possibilities?

"In Tennessee we hear a lot about the (Environmental Protection Agency) and the rules that are there. They’ve been very difficult on people that are doing plastics and rubbers and tool and die processors,” Blackburn said, while suggesting that there will be calls for repealing government rules and regulations and lower tax rates on businesses during upcoming sessions of congress.
Yeah, but the Bernie supporters don't care. They are too pure.

“The most cardinal rule of any speech-writing operation is that you cannot plagiarize,” said Mr. Latimer, the Bush speechwriter, who is now a partner at Javelin, a communications firm. If you do, he said, “you lose your job.”

"From a young age, my parents impressed on me the values that you work hard for what you want in life, that your word is your bond and you do what you say and keep your promise, that you treat people with respect," Melania Trump said in her speech. "They taught and showed me morals in their daily life. That is the lesson that I continue to pass along to our son. And we need to pass those lessons on to many generations to follow because we want our children in this nation to know that the only limit to your achievements is the strength of your dreams and your willingness to work for them."
Failure of the course to suspension. Wow.

If Martin struggled to write outside his usual communities, it’s not difficult to imagine individual students moving across the disciplinary ecosystems of higher education, each trying to cope uniquely with alien-looking assignments that must be particularized with complex information just learned or still being learned. Students are required to write well from context to context in almost chameleonic ways, taking on expertise in completely different domains of knowledge, lurching from one style to another, radically transforming their self-representations from “personal” to “highly objective” to “thoughtfully analytical.”
Well said.

The complexity of text, idea, and image and the relation ships this complexity creates promote the "in the box" pedagogy that composition studies struggles to learn. In other words, teaching a new media writing is a reflection of a cultural condition currently lived; it is "in the box." I, like many others, have come to see such an "in the box" emphasis as one that stresses the formation of relationships among "too much" information. I, like many others, have come to see this pedagogy as the basis of network writing.
And thus more useful for students.

The specific features that pertain to Cornell's art and that can pertain to persua sive hypertexts are: the minimalist use of readymade texts; the knowledgeable linking of disparate materials; and the creation of a critical commentary to illu minate the intellectual connections that motivate the links. (Janangelo 28) Use what is available (ready-mades), create connections (linking), add to the found material (critical commentary), and link one's position. Such is a Cornell recipe for hypertext writing.
Indeed.

Good writing, as Richard Lanham famously put it, cuts out the lard.
Really cool stuff: sentences as curating words.

They feel never ending in their rhetorical approaches. "Yet a rhetoric of endless growth con flicts with the idea, endemic to academic prose, that persuasion is usually predicated on focus, selection, and strategic presentation" (Janangelo 29
Well put.
-
Janangelo realizes that hypertext involves more than mere linkages or nonlinear expression. It also involves a reassembly of the ev eryday (experiences, things, places, and ideas) into a nonsequential space.
Ok.

In their articulation of peer review as a form of love, as a means of collaborating in deep relationship and ethical recognition, they write that “peer review is an opportunity to learn and teach simultaneously.”
