Delaware Literally Lowers The Bar To Increase Racial Diversity Of Lawyers, Judges
'The bar exam is not supposed to be a barrier...'
. . ."To translate that, it sounds as if Durante thinks that “white people” at large need to continue to adapt to woke ideology and bow at the altar of diversity, equity, and inclusion.
"Despite claims that the standards are still high, it does in fact change them, which automatically means less qualified candidates will be admitted to practice law in Delaware. Changes such as reduced clerkships and minimum legal proceedings will mean that new attorneys will have less experience. "If finances are what preclude qualified minorities from applying to the state bar, why not just focus on making those more affordable either via upfront reduction, scholarships, or grants? That would open the bar exam to all lower-income individuals — not just those of certain races, as Durante made clear was the goal. "There are two ways of immediately increasing racial diversity based on immutable demographics: One is blatant discrimination, which is illegal though it is oft attempted by the Left. The other is lowering standards so that there are more “winners” — so to speak. "Of course, in both cases, the final product — or in this case the quality of attorneys — is weakened because immutable characteristics rather than merit are prioritized. In the end, it will be the clients depending upon their attorneys to win in court who will suffer as the Delaware Bar exam sacrifices quality for DEI.". .
Hershey’s feels the heat over candy wrapper featuring trans woman for International Women’s Day
BPR Hershey’s Canada’s woke “Her for She” campaign debuted an ad on Wednesday in honor of International Women’s Day on March 8 that features on its candy bar wrapper transgender woman Fae Johnstone, a queer, trans and feminist activist who is also a “2SLGBTQUIA+ Advocate.”
The move set Twitter on fire with users blasting Hershey’s over the ad campaign. Many thought it was obscene to use a transgender woman to represent a pro-female celebration.
"The short clip shows Johnstone posing with the limited-edition candy bar. She provides a voiceover attempting to explain the lame and offensive inclusivity initiative.
" 'My name is Fae Johnstone, I’m the executive director of ‘Wisdom to Action.’ We can create a world where everyone is able to live in public space as their honest and authentic selves,” Johnstone declared.". . .
It “means a lot to be included, as a young(ish?) trans woman,” Johnstone tweeted. “I grew up with few trans role models. Many young trans folks haven’t met a trans adult. I hope this campaign shows trans girls they can dream big and change the world too.”
Now Equestrian Helmets Are (You Guessed It) Racist –
We want justice!
"The New York Times, that intrepid warrior for anything and everything that the Left is hysterical about, on Friday published a lengthy piece about a source of systemic racism that no one has ever noticed before: It seems that equestrian helmets are racist because they don’t accommodate the dreadlocks that some black horse riders wear. One black rider’s mother lamented: “Mostly everything in this sport isn’t designed for us.” Well, that’s got to change, and these Jackie Robinsons of the Coiffure, with the Times’ generous help, are leading the way to the Equestrian Helmet Justice that our society so desperately needs.
"Chanel Robbins, the Times tells us solemnly, “has been riding horses most of her life, ever since her grandmother traded a cow from their family’s farm in Ontario for a pony when she was 7.” Horse riding “offered an escape from thoughts that weighed on her,” which included the fact that “she was the only Black girl in the neighborhood.” But when she grew dreadlocks, her helmet didn’t fit anymore, and that, as you must know by now, is racist.
"Fighting back tears (really, the Times actually said she was), Robbins said: “I finally freaking feel like myself, and now society is asking me to change. I just want to be able to ride.” How dare Whitey do this! Is there nothing to which he will not stoop? Poor Chanel Robbins can only find relief on the back of a horse from the systemic racism that confronts her every hour in Amerikkka, but now Whitey has taken even that away!. . ."
Please make it end!

However, Charleston-based Republican consultant Michael Mule told Fox News that Murdaugh “knew how to play the political game,” highlighting his contributions to Democrat and Republican politicians in South Carolina.
"Disgraced former South Carolina lawyer Alex Murdaugh and his family members have given hundreds of thousands of dollars in political contributions over the years, including to top Democrats such as Hillary Clinton and President Joe Biden.
"The Murdaugh family has long been influential in South Carolina’s political and legal realms. However, Murdaugh on Thursday was convicted by a South Carolina jury for the double murder of his wife and son."
Paris Hilton reveals she had an abortion to condemn pro-life laws
Paris Hilton reveals she had an abortion to condemn pro-life laws (& other stories) | The Bridgehead "At The Critic, Sebastian Milbank has a sobering essay titled “The end of Christendom,” in which he looks at the tandem threat of persecution against Christians outside the West and the slow, steady erosion of religious liberty within the West. An excerpt:
"With no refuge or well of power and influence with which to draw on, Christians are becoming further endangered across the globe. Christian refugees will find no special welcome in the secular West. Christian churches in exile may find their beliefs again denounced and legally persecuted by Western societies. The great influence and rhetoric that helped win freedom for the Christian peoples of the Balkans is unlikely to be available for Christians now persecuted worldwide.
"Read the entire thing—it’s worth your while.". . .
. . .To defend abortion in the wake of Roe v. Wade’s fall, Paris Hilton has publicly stated that she had an abortion when she was in her early twenties because she “was a kid.” She wasn’t, of course—and the actual kid was killed. Children pay the price for our ambitions. . .
Hawley blasts Garland over FBI raid on pro-lifer’s home -
American Thinker "Sen. Josh Hawley blasted Attorney General Merrick Garland over the FBI raid on a pro-life activist’s home, and asked whether the Department of Justice (DOJ) had an “anti-Catholic bias.”
“ "Our department protects all religions, all ideologies. It does not have any bias against any religion of any kind," Garland said during the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing.
"Hawley then labeled the DOJ as an agency that attacks Catholics while “turning a blind eye” to crime in American cities.
“ 'Your answer frankly surprises me,” Hawley added.
"In September 2020, Mark Houck, a pro-life activist and author from Pennsylvania, was arrested in front of his wife and seven children after dozens of FBI agents showed up on his lawn, carrying long guns and shields.
"In 2020, on Fox News’s “Tucker Carlson Tonight”, Houck’s wife, Ryan-Marie, recounted the event:
My entire front yard, you could barely see it, it was covered with at least 15 big trucks and cars. There were 20, 25, 30, men, women, completely in jackets with shields and helmets and guns. They were behind cars. It was something I would never expect to see on my front lawn[.] . . .

James Bond Novels To Get Woke Rewrite… "Ian Fleming’s famed sexist super spy James Bond is getting the 2023 sensitivity treatment. According to the Sunday Telegraph, the Bond books are getting a rewrite. The editors? Sensitivity experts expunging a number of racial reference’s ahead of the character’s 70th anniversary."
. . .Defense and State are supposed to defend and promote American values around the world, but mainly they’re engaged in internal trolling, lecturing Americans about our alleged moral deficiencies and shouting out propagandistic far-left buzzwords.
"Sen. Tom Cotton, who served in the infantry in both Iraq and Afghanistan, noted this summer that he has received hundreds of complaints about ideological inculcation in the military. “One Marine told us that a military history training session was replaced with mandatory training on police brutality, white privilege, and systemic racism,” Cotton told Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin. “Another servicemember told us that their unit was required to read ‘White Fragility’ by Robin DiAngelo which claims, and this is a quote, ‘white people raised in Western society are conditioned into a white supremacist world view.’ ”
"West Point cadets are being forced to attend classes on “Whiteness and white rage,” as though the soldier’s mission is not to protect the country from external threats but to search his own soul for microaggressions and cultural appropriation.". . .

Merrick Garland says those attacking pro-life centers too ‘clever’ for FBI: ‘They work at night’
“ 'That’s your job,” responded Sen. Marsha Blackburn, Tennessee Republican.
"Republican senators repeatedly pressed the attorney general on what they said was a striking disparity between prosecutions in pro-life and pro-choice attacks.
"They were incredulous at his explanation that the FBI has come up empty.
"Ms. Blackburn pointed to an attack on a pregnancy center in Tennessee where a pro-choice group, Jane’s Revenge, took credit.". . .
Report: FBI Was Against Mar-a-Lago Raid, Argued With DOJ Prosecutors (legalinsurrection.com) "I’m so old, I remember when leaks to The Washington Post and other NeverTrump media about the Mar-a-Lago raid (but don’t call it a “raid”) were all negative to Donald Trump – nuclear secrets blah blah blah, no choice but to send 20+ FBI agents because of the risk of the documents falling into foreign hands, etc.
"Oh, how times have changed. Now that it turns out Joe Biden had classified documents dating back to his Senate days in multiple locations, and FBI searches were arranged without a show of force, and even Mike Pence got caught Sandy-Bergering stuff, well, now maybe that raid was a tad unnecessary. That’s the gist of a leak to WaPo, Showdown before the raid: FBI agents and prosecutors argued over Trump. Notice, WaPo used the R word (raid):.
Naturally, the Whoopster has an opinion:
"Months of disputes between Justice Department prosecutors and FBI agents over how best to try to recover classified documents from Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago Club and residence led to a tense showdown near the end of July last year, according to four people familiar with the discussions.. . .Sara Haines attacks the intelligence of Biden critics, saying "anyone with any amount of brain cells knows these are not completely equivalent purely because of the volume" of documents. pic.twitter.com/VpxY9xtPBo— Nicholas Fondacaro (@NickFondacaro) January 12, 2023

A Bill Comes Due: Will California Pony Up for Reparations?
Jonathan Turley "Below is my column in The Hill on the recommendations for reparations by two appointed bodies in California. After years of declaring this a moral imperative, the bill has come due for leaders like Gov. Gavin Newsom and San Francisco Mayor London Breed. The collective demand is for trillions in California alone with additional trillions demanded from Congress in a national reparations program. California Democrats will now have to render a decision on committing real money on reparations to show that this was not mere virtue signaling. That decision could be coming soon.
"Here is the column:
"A long-awaited meeting of San Francisco’s board of supervisors was set this week to discuss the recommendation of its African American Reparations Advisory Committee to give $5 million to each eligible Black resident as reparations. The meeting was postponed, but the city and the state soon must make a decision on a bill that has come due for Democratic politicians.
"The city council voted unanimously to create the reparations committee in 2020. Even though California was a free state without slavery before the Civil War, the committee’s “particular focus has been the era of urban renewal, perhaps the most significant example of how the City and County of San Francisco as an institution played a role in undermining Black wealth and actively displacing the city’s Black population.” That could be viewed as only a partial payment for race-related injuries.
"In the meantime, California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) created his own Reparations Task Force, which just reached its own recommendations for $223,000 per person. Others have insisted the figure should be $350,000 for individuals and another $250,000 for Black-owned businesses. One California politician insisted the figure needs to be $800,000 per person, reflecting the average cost of a home in the state.". . .

I can picture ex-Mayor Lightfoot being a semiregular on Joy Reid at MSNBC
On Tuesday night, Mayor Lightfoot was rejected by the voters. She came in 3rd place and will start packing her bags for a post-political life. My guess is that she'll end up at MSNBC but maybe I'm just cynical today. Silvio Canto, Jr.
Lightfoot Loss Blamed On Rampant Murderphobia | Babylon Bee . . ."Murderphobia is still an unfortunate reality here in Chicago, and it is the reason I was not reelected as this city's mayor," said Lightfoot to reporters. "People were so busy being afraid of being shot in the face by gang members that they forgot about what an amazing mayor I was. Let me be clear: murderphobia is racist. Murderphobia is bigoted. Murderphobia is NOT ok. Full stop.". . .
Lori out -- but will anything change?Bad timing also can’t explain Lightfoot’s inability to get along with people and a relationship with the City Council so contentious at least seven members of her own leadership team abandoned ship, endorsing other mayoral candidates.
Lori Lightfoot Effectively Calls Chicago Residents Racist, Sexist After Election Loss – RedState . . ."Naturally, like any good radical leftist, Lightfoot took no personal responsibility for her loss, choosing to blame it instead on others. In this case, the entire city of Chicago is guilty of being sexist and racist as reported by the New York Post:
“I’m a black woman in America. Of course,” she replied when asked by a reporter if she had been treated unfairly.
…
“I am a black woman — let’s not forget,” Lightfoot, 60, told the New Yorker in a piece that ran Saturday. “Certain folks, frankly, don’t support us in leadership roles.
"Apparently, the city that elected her to the mayorship in the first place suddenly became racist and sexist during her time as that city’s mayor.
"The truth is that Lightfoot took a crime-ridden city filled with violence and murder and made it worse. Under her reign, Chicago’s violent crime rate increased a whopping 37 percent while auto thefts skyrocketed by 74 percent. Corporations abandoned the city for safer places as the homeless population increased to unmanageable proportions.". . .

Toronto trans teacher with ‘natural’ ginormous boobs on paid leave after getting caught being a man
Yet commenters continue to refer to this man as "she".
Trans teacher with prosthetic Z-cup breasts put on leave after it was revealed they don't wear the fake boobs outside of school https://t.co/5KBVqOA3l7
— Daily Mail Online (@MailOnline) March 2, 2023
Twitchy.com "Did you hear the one about the Canadian teacher with the massive knockers?
"See, normally it would be considered pretty offensive, not to mention sexist, to ask a question like that. But not this time. This time, it’s totally appropriate. Because we’re talking, of course, about Kayla Lemieux. Even if the name doesn’t sound familiar, the story should ring a bell. She’s the trans Toronto high school teacher who claims that she’s actually intersex, which is why it’s entirely possible that she could have male reproductive organs as well as comically ginormous boobs (despite having no formal medical training, or even informal medical training, she diagnosed herself with gigantomastia). Lemieux was persecuted by intolerant parents who just didn’t understand that it’s a fundamental human right to be able to wear skintight tops as a schoolteacher, particularly when you’ve got Z-cups.
The district previously claimed that interfering or criticizing the teacher would go against the Ontario Human Rights Code.
“The [Halton District School Board] recognizes the rights of students, staff, parents/guardians and community members to equitable treatment without discrimination based upon gender identity and gender expression. Gender identity and gender expression are protected grounds under the Ontario Human Rights Code,” the board said in a statement.
Well, it seems that the school board has since had a slight change of heart about Lemieux after she was spotted out and about looking like a dude and conspicuously missing the hooters:". . .
