The Leftists are ruthless in enforcing their discrimination against ANYONE who does not follow the PC party line. NO independence of thought is allowed in our leftist universities. Censorship and groupthink are the norm not only among students, but also among famous tenured professors.

“Jonathan Turley thought Sonia Sotomayor wasn’t smart enough to be on the Supreme Court.”

Fake but entirely accurate (not about Turley but about sotomayor).

Caterwauling like a baby will surely put him back in good standing with the deviant, brain-dead party.

Wake up, Mr. Turley. The left you imagine to be hasn’t existed for decades.
The left that exists now will kill you at the drop of a hat.
A MAGA hat.

Leftist “academics” nurtured the Bolshevik mob. Now they are going to find themselves ina metaphorical gulag for wrong-think.

Turley is not alone. He, along with Alan Derschowitz (sp?) and others have discovered that Objective Truth is not a consideration as far as Democrats are concerned.
The only thing that matters to Dems is total adherence to their agenda. Blind obedience is mandatory!!!
Independent thought is abhorred and will not be tolerated. If you engage in it and it is contrary to their agenda you will be attacked mercilessly and your reputation, no matter how impeccable in the past, will be targeted for destruction.

Sounds like there’s a whole lot of “lead deficiency” in The Academy...

But it is. So what does that tell the professor about the reality of his beliefs and what they do to people?

Professor Turley, I suggest you ought to have lunch with Sharyl Atkisson.

She can enlighten you about what happens to true professionals who dare to deviate from the left-prescribed ways of thinking.

Sin? It’s practically an academic death sentence.

Although, Turley is well-enough known that he’ll just be shunned.

Progressivism is a religion of Secular Humanism and Cultural Marxism.

It is a religion with doctrine, rituals and priests & priestesses.

Some of their commandments would include:

Thou shall never admit error.
Thou shall demonize all who disagree with us.
Thou shall call truth only that which favors us.
Thou shall infiltrate schools, businesses, media and churches.
Thou shall indoctrinate people, especially children, to our side.
Thou shall rewrite history in our favor.
Thou shall divide the sexes, races, religions, families and incomes.
Thou shall dumb down children in our schools.
Thou shall demonize men and white men especially.
Thou shall divide and then rule America.

Whatever perch he had been on his ivory tower, surely he knew the consequences for this "great sin" of telling the truth to Democrats. He couldn't possibly be that naive.

It is truly amazing to watch those who champion the communist party find out what awaits them when they realize they weren't as able to speak freely as they thought they were.

No more of those sweet television appearance checks for you, pal.

Turley is a smart, educated man. Surely he could not be this clueless as to what his fellow Leftists are all about.

Absolutely, right on the money... But it needs to be called what it really is, Communism.

“But it needs to be called what it really is, Communism.”

In due time. They got ‘socialism’ accepted now...

It’s been communism by different misdirected sugar coated names since the 50s. Absolutely time to back to the original factual root source label.
