"Among other things, the law school reference isn't plausible. Not only was she in a different graduating class from Thomas, but to the extent they overlapped, he wasn't even a conservative in law school — that was just the beginning of his ideological transition," Klein explained.

Colleges Are Ethnically Cleansing America's White Kulaks - Revolver
Colleges Are Ethnically Cleansing America's White Kulaks - Revolver
"In the days and weeks after George Floyd’s fentanyl overdose, America’s universities proudly proclaimed an imminent “racial reckoning” on campus.
- “Diversity,” understood in a very specific way, became the top objective.
Harvard’s university press published books on how to eliminate schools that were “too white.”
Activists demanded the abolition of “white supremacist” standardized tests, and dozens of schools swiftly complied.
Two years have passed.
Two years have passed.
Last fall, American colleges welcomed their first 100% post-George Floyd classes, and the results are clear:
- At one elite school after another, ordinary white Americans are being treated as academia’s “undesirables” and are slowly being cleansed out.
Shortly after his thread, Schmidt appeared on Fox News to repeat his story..."

world’s largest integrated chemical complex spanning some 200 plants.

...Answering a question about the White House’s response to criticism of Biden for the tragedy, Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre first tried to deflect by pretending to be concerned about those who lost their lives and their families.
“So, 46 people died — right? — in the state of Texas, and so — and others, as I just mentioned, are still fighting for their lives,” she said.
...“But the fact of the matter is the border is closed,” she said, “which is in part why you see people trying to make this dangerous journey using smuggling networks.”Umm, what? The border is closed?..."

More than a warning, a prediction-----America Is More Fragile Than the Left Understands--Victor Davis Hanson
America Is More Fragile Than the Left Understands -- By Victor Davis Hanson
"...Our elites assume that all our nation’s past violent protests, all its would-be revolutions, all its cultural upheavals, all its institutionalized lawlessness were predicated on one central truth—America’s central core is so strong, so rich, and so resilient that it can withstand almost any assault.
...But such inheritances are not written in stone.
"...Our elites assume that all our nation’s past violent protests, all its would-be revolutions, all its cultural upheavals, all its institutionalized lawlessness were predicated on one central truth—America’s central core is so strong, so rich, and so resilient that it can withstand almost any assault.
- So, we can afford 120 days in 2020 of mass rioting, $2 billion in damage, some 35 killed, and 1,500 police injured.
- We can easily survive an Afghanistan, and our utter and complete military humiliation. There was no problem in abandoning some $70-80 billion in military loot to terrorists. Who cares that we tossed off a billion-dollar new embassy, and jettisoned a $300-million refitted air base, as long as our pride flags were waving in Kabul?
- Certainly, we can afford to restructure all our universities, eliminate free expression and speech, and institute Maoist cultural revolutionary fervor in our revered institutions of higher learning—once the world’s greatest levers of scientific advancement and technological progress.
- We can jettison merit in every endeavor, from banning the world’s great books to grading math tests to running chemistry experiments.
...But such inheritances are not written in stone.
America, as the world’s only successful multiracial democratic republic, was always fragile.
It was and is always one generation away from disappearing—should any cohort become so foolish as to mock its past, dismantle its institutions, revert to tribalism, redistribute rather than create wealth, and consume rather than invest.
We are that generation.
We are that generation.
...But again, the culprit is not the COVID plague or want of money. It is us, we who turned over our cities to the incompetent, the selfish, the timid, and the violent.
There is again an antidote..."

They see themselves as the heroes of their own movies, good red-diaper babies constantly battling the forces of revanchism and irrendentism, which are you.

- snarlingly turned on her running mate and their erstwhile favorite maverick, John McCain in 2008; and

Dobbs and Kennedy: Two more victories in a long line of recent religious freedom decisions from SCOTUS - TheBlaze:
The Dobbs decision, which effectively overturned Roe v. Wade, and the Kennedy decision, which ruled in favor of a public school coach's right to pray after football games, are currently at the forefront of our minds, but they are hardly anomalies. Since at least 2018, the Supreme Court has steadily upheld religious freedoms and protected this aspect of the First Amendment against further government overreach.
Let's review some of the hallmark cases that have affirmed religious rights.
