Nancy Kerrigan calls Disney parade corny after she was paid $2 million dollars to attend
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Nancy later said that her remark was taken out of context and she was not commenting on being in the parade but rather on her agent's insistence that she wear her medal in the parade. She said that her parents had always taught her not to brag about her accomplishments. 🔗: web.archive.org/web/2014081410…

So here we are: “I think it’s imperative that we have the proper resources for our law enforcement to protect campus." DEI funding: UNC Board of Trustees slashes diversity program funding, diverts money to public safety - ABC11 Raleigh-Durham abc11.com/post/dei-funding-u…

Keep in mind: These are the folks claiming to be colorblind, claiming that DEI focuses too much on race, explicitly saying the real problem is white men in a university system that is at least 75% white in a state that is 90% white need a space that’s racially for them. It’s always been a trap.
Iowa’s 3 public universities are closing their DEI offices Iowa State’s president said they’ve established learning communities so that ‘a young man, young white man, from rural Iowa, could find the place where they could belong’ kcrg.com/2024/04/25/iowa-uni…

Seems like a good a time as any to share my article, "Is Originalism Bullshit?" which is forthcoming in the Lewis & Clark Law Review! This article finally takes on the question that seems to be on everyone's mind these days: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.…

UVA will change the name. Good, Alderman was a hardcore eugenicist. Next step is theyve got to start talking about it. 2024 would be a great year to educate the community on the harm these men caused, being the 100 anniversary of the “Racial Integrity Act” dailyprogress.com/news/local…

Brazil's President Lula da Silva has been under immense attack from Israel and its allies for calling the war in Gaza a "genocide" and invoking the Holocaust. Israel banned him from entering the country. Rather than apologize, here was Lula's response last night in Rio:
‘If this isn’t genocide, I don’t know what is!’ @LulaOficial doubled down on Israel at an event in Rio de Janeiro on Friday.

Let the record show that Donald Trump complained today he’d been treated worse than President Lincoln, who died at the hands of an assassin.

We should never have acquiesced to even calling it "right to work." It's just anti-labor Jim Crow era policy meant to hurt working people.
Replying to @GovernorVA74
Please don’t bring me a bill that impacts Virginians’ Right to Work, as it will be met with the business end of my veto pen.
