As many of you know, my granddaughter, Hazel passed away recently. Here’s a letter from the mother of one of her classmates. Hazel was profoundly disabled but she had an even more profound effect upon the world around her. Every life has a value beyond measure.
If you don't want to be Weimar, you unapologetically enforce public order against both the Reds and the Browns.
I get that the left has romanticized the 60s -- and esp 1968 -- for 5+ decades. I just hope it remembers the most imp political event of that year was the election of Richard Nixon (along with a large groundswell of support for segregationist George Wallace outside of the South).
“victims reported being brought to the New Orleans Seminary where they were told to skinny dip in the pool and would be sexually assaulted or abused. This was discovered to be a common occurrence and it was reported that other members of the Archdiocese were present” @wdsu
Most Black Americans say that even if crime is declining and new police reforms are not enacted, they would still prefer to maintain (or increase) police patrols and spending. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
A big setback for the push for a second Black majority district in Louisiana - but a lot of uncertainty over what happens next. It’s pretty clear Republicans drew an unnecessarily mangled #LA06 in hopes it would get struck down as a racial gerrymander, and this panel complied.

One interesting thing I'm seeing a lot from folks who believe these protests are impactful is the idea that after the student militancy of the sixties, the lefties... won? A wave of open-mindedness and tolerance spread across the American political system in the 1970s and 1980s?
A new study of 350,000 European adults screened for genes and surveyed for lifestyle determined that, other than being blessed with good genes, the 4 best things you can do to live past 75yo are (listed by the rank of the size of the effect estimate): 1. Don't smoke. 2. 150…
This is just the law. We apply the same principles in every case. (See our record fighting for pro-Palestine and pro-Israel voices — heck, and these very students, — at thefire.org). People do get upset when they want special rules for speech they really agree with.…
Very respectfully, there is no constitutional right to forcibly occupy private property. I do agree police force should be a last resort, reasonable and proportional. These are, indeed, students who are, by definition, learning. But so are their classmates with divergent views…

Funny how all these protestors are so quiet about a possible large-scale massacre in #Darfur, where an actual genocide was committed by the same folks now threatening the region's civilians. nytimes.com/2024/04/29/wor… #Sudan
Teachers union leaders adopt misleading rhetoric about “high stakes testing” —> rank and file teachers believe the rhetoric and communicate misinformation to third graders —> mass panic among 9 year-olds on DC CAPE testing week.
Most of this reading material has nothing to do with the Palestinians, which is totally true to form for protests these days - i.e., muddled messages and conflicting aims.

Did someone end up in the river? I've been watching a Coast Guard helicopter sweeping up and down the river along Holy Cross... #NOLA
This doesn't make a lot of sense... I know NOPD needs a new HQ, but how about getting them a building that's actually built for that purpose. This is going to be messy and expensive. #NOLA

No student should be denied access to their campus because of their identity or beliefs. Mob blockades against targeted students are illiberal and unlawful and cannot be tolerated.
Yeah, so none of this is going to happen... However, are the annual investments of #Tulane and Loyola's endowments really hidden from view or do the protesters simply not know how to find it? #HigherEd

One interesting thing I'm seeing a lot from folks who believe these protests are impactful is the idea that after the student militancy of the sixties, the lefties... won? A wave of open-mindedness and tolerance spread across the American political system in the 1970s and 1980s?
A new study of 350,000 European adults screened for genes and surveyed for lifestyle determined that, other than being blessed with good genes, the 4 best things you can do to live past 75yo are (listed by the rank of the size of the effect estimate): 1. Don't smoke. 2. 150…
This is just the law. We apply the same principles in every case. (See our record fighting for pro-Palestine and pro-Israel voices — heck, and these very students, — at thefire.org). People do get upset when they want special rules for speech they really agree with.…
Very respectfully, there is no constitutional right to forcibly occupy private property. I do agree police force should be a last resort, reasonable and proportional. These are, indeed, students who are, by definition, learning. But so are their classmates with divergent views…

While we must always protect free speech, the occupation of the PSU library has crossed the line into criminal behavior. I stand with PSU President Cudd, Mayor Wheeler, Chief Day, and our law enforcement partners. Those engaged in this behavior should vacate. I will prosecute…
The new Title IX regulations have nothing to do with sports. Did you schedule this tweet? 😬
I applaud Louisiana’s @AGLizMurrill & @LAGovJeffLandry for refusing the Biden Admin’s outrageous Title IX revisions. This expansion embraces radical gender theory & erases the protections women fought for. Every state that seeks to protect women’s sports should follow suit.
They’re baaaaaaaacccck 😫
No student should be denied access to their campus because of their identity or beliefs. Mob blockades against targeted students are illiberal and unlawful and cannot be tolerated.
I have been trying to figure out a correct say to say this so it doesn’t come out wrong. Why the hell are they so against transgender students? The percentage of students that are transgender is very small but they want to use them as an example of something they can control.
I pray for a cessation of conflict, a meaningful movement towards two states, and a rejection of extremism and extreme and divisive rhetoric. I hope the lack of a pithy slogan doesn’t harm the message.
