Now I’m even happier that A&M beat them.

This entire article is a completely dishonest discussion of what Charlie was actually arguing.

Evil will go for the religious institutes. Look at what happened in Minnesota. Evil goes after innocence. It takes over schools

Any Catholic institution such as ND must be aware of how that works, and be vigilant with prayer, sacraments, sacramentals or it’s a perfect ground for evil takeover.

It is not executed in the form of quotas (banned by the Supreme Court in the late 1970s), it does not discriminate against white men and it certainly does not hire unqualified individuals (which is against federal law).


The writer has little connection to reality. Anyone who has been in the workforce for the last 40 years knows the discrimination against white men has only grown worse.

The dishonest are particularly susceptible to mind control.

When you don’t love truth, you can’t see it.

I don’t care to talk to these lunatics. They are not my countrymen. I don’t care to coexist with them.
Split the country up already so I can get to living and being let the the hell alone.

From "Not the Bee" this morning:

WaPo writer complains about being fired for making up fake Charlie Kirk quote:

04-D0-DBA1-416-D-4-D0-C-8-E72-82170912-B912

The problem?

Charlie Kirk never said that.

JD Vance: "Charlie Kirk never said Black women do not have the brain processing power to be taken seriously. He never uttered those words."

Charlie Kirk might have dropped out of college, but he was a well-spoken, well-educated, intelligent man. I never heard him speak until after he was murdered.

The young lady is mistaking credentials for education and intelligence.

Affirmative action is when organizations make an active effort by devoting resources to better the employment and educational opportunities of marginalized groups such as ethnic minorities and women.

It doesn't work that way in practice. It ends up as de facto racial quotas, even if it is called DEI or something else.

The Ivies are no longer (if they ever were) arbiters of brain power. Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerburg, Michael Dell, Quentin Tarantino, Richard Branson, Peter Jennings (RIP) are all successful college dropouts. All white guys. Interesting.

The question is did they get into those schools because they were black and filled slots or because of their academic achievement.

That’s the problem with affirmative action - it can push people beyond their ability and lower the overall group performance. Shiela Jackson Lee was a joke and KJ Brown isn’t recognized so far as being all that brilliant to say the least. Michelle’s thesis was described by Christopher Hitchens as “not being written in any known language”.

There are plenty of really intelligent black women who don’t need DEI. They should be promoted - not the PC blacks propped up by DEI.

Well, her comprehension skills and lack of critical thinking skills are very apparent. The four examples used may be clever but are far more filled with race hate than Charlie could ever have been. Seems she’s bought into the left lifting them up based on zip diddly. Guess Zora has a minor in dumbassery. 🙄

ND is run by their Board of Trustees, most of whom are rich, liberal Democrat lawyers from Chicago. It’s a stretch to call it a “Catholic institution,” unfortunately. Their theology department isn’t a total loss, at least.
