A.M. Edition for Oct. 2. The Trump administration has invited nine initial schools to join a ‘compact’ banning use of race or sex in admissions, freezing tuition, capping international enrollment and more. Plus, the U.S. will for the first time provide Ukraine with intelligence for missile strikes deep inside Russia. WSJ correspondent Bojan Pancevski says it's part of a major shift in strategy from both the U.S. and Europe, as efforts to ensure a peaceful ending to the war in Ukraine have all but failed. And, why tech bosses say they can’t find the right workers despite a sea of tech talent. Caitlin McCabe hosts.

On January 20, 1942, one of the most infamous meetings in human history took place.
Fifteen of the top-ranking Nazi officials gathered in the Berlin Suburb of Wannsee to come up with the “Final Solution of the Jewish Question.”
They discussed who would be eliminated and how, without the slightest hint of emotion.
In around ninety minutes, the fate of millions was decided.
Learn about the Wannsee Conference and how the “Final Solution” was enacted on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The War on Words: 10 Arguments Against Free Speech—And Why They Fail (Heresy Press, 2025) constitutes a bulwark against the persistent censorial efforts from both the political left and right. At a time when conformist pressures threaten viewpoint diversity, and when political attacks on free expression are mounting, this book is a valuable resource for all who seek to understand and defend the right that is central to both individual liberty and our democratic self-government. This concise volume is organized around 10 claims that proponents of speech restrictions regularly assert, such as: “words are violence,” “free speech is right-wing,” and “hate speech isn’t free speech.” In lively, clear, and persuasive prose, the authors examine the flaws in these pro-censorship assertions. The book also includes an insightful introduction by Jacob Mchangama, shedding additional light on the topic from historical and international perspectives.
Greg Lukianoff is an attorney, New York Times best-selling author, and the President and CEO of the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression (FIRE).
Nadine Strossen is the John Marshall Harlan II Professor of Law Emerita at New York Law School and was the national President of the American Civil Liberties Union from 1991 to 2008.
