Discriminatory and divisive DEI ideology has no place in medical education,’ watchdog says The Association of American Medical Colleges continues to infuse “diversity, equity, and inclusion” ideology into medical education despite scrubbing DEI programs and commitments from its website, a medical advocacy group found. Two experts told The College Fix that DEI in medical schools jeopardizes funding, lowers standards for students, and damages trust in doctors. A recent report from Do No Harm states the Association of American Medical Colleges has recently “taken steps to remove dozens of the more explicit and overt endorsements of DEI from its website” following...

A new K-12 online school is focusing on promoting American principles and "eliminating woke ideology." The president of the American Virtual Academy, Damian Creamer, told Fox News Digital that he wanted to provide an alternative to parents who were fed up with liberal ideology being taught in the classroom. "We’re really focused on giving families an opportunity to put their kids in a school that is going to respect their values and make sure that we're teaching American principles and providing a different option to families out there than what they typically run across," Creamer said. The online-only Kindergarten through...

A poet said his career skyrocketed within the liberal literary scene by taking on minority personas to promote his work to publishers. Aaron Barry, 29, of Vancouver, experienced the most success when he posed as writers with identities far from his own, even if the poems were blatantly 'trash.' His reasoning behind the scheme was simple - to prove the poetry world is more concerned with writers' identities than the quality of their work. 'My thinking was that, if the industry - from small magazines to full-on publishing imprints - could get away with showing a clear preference toward certain...

A new poll reveals a sharp decline in support for the Democratic Party since the 2024 election, as frustrated voters say the party has drifted far from the concerns of everyday Americans. Instead of focusing on inflation, border security, or public safety, Democrats are increasingly seen as obsessed with destroying President Donald Trump's legacy, woke virtue signaling, and identity politics. A poll conducted by Unite the Country, a Democratic super PAC, shows that many voters — especially white men, Hispanic men, and working-class Americans — see the Democratic Party as “woke,” “weak,” and disconnected from everyday realities. The party’s approval...

"What's important is that I'm not the last African American fire chief." The Austin Firefighters Association intends to hold a vote of no confidence on Fire Chief Joel G. Baker over his failure to deploy advance teams to flood ravaged Kerr County ahead of the destruction. Now, it has been revealed that Baker, the first black fire chief in Austin, prioritized diversity goals shortly after coming onto the job. He's been accused of not deploying Austin's specialized teams ahead of the destruction, despite having been asked by the state to do so, because Texas was delayed in reimbursing the department...

Democrats are worried that their party won’t be able to afford to even pay its employees through the end of the year, their donations have dried up so much. It couldn’t happen to a nicer group of people. They absolutely deserve every bit of it, and I will cheer so loudly if it happens that you’ll hear me do it, no matter where on the planet you are. How did the party go from woke to broke? Easy, it’s right there in the question. At no point in the last 10 years have Democrats found themselves on the positive side...

Memo offers a snapshot of how personal statements can be used to skirt affirmative action ban... At the end of finals period each May, the Duke Law Journal hosts a two-week-long competition to select its next crop of editors. Applicants write a 12-page memo, or casenote, analyzing an appellate court decision, as well as a 500-word essay about what they would "contribute" to the journal. Students are chosen based on their grades, casenotes, and personal statements. Less than 20 percent of the class makes it onto the law review, which is overseen by Duke Law School and has no legal...

The Associated Press appears to believe that people are waking up every day having nervous breakdowns over the spectre of — wait for it — climate change. AP lifestyle writer Leanne Italie put out a crackpot piece of green freak propaganda June 25 that competed with The Babylon Bee for funniest satire of the day. “Anxiety, grief, anger, fear, helplessness. The emotional toll of climate change is broad-ranging, especially for young people.” Yes, this was a real sentence in what is supposedly a news item. It just got worse: “Many worry about what the future holds, and a daily grind...

Important newsflash for the Senate GOP: the recommendations of the woke Senate parliamentarian, who is trying to ensure that absolutely no financial reform is enacted, are not binding. ... John Thune .. not going to challenge the outrageous decisions of the Senate Parliamentarian, and no doubt he’d like you to believe there’s no option otherwise. That is simply untrue. There are multiple ways of overruling the unelected Senate Parliamentarian Elizabeth MacDonough’s decisions. As voters, it’s very important we understand the legal realities of our system and not give our elected representatives a pass just because they claimed helplessness. ... “The...

Here’s a story you won’t see the mainstream media cover, ever: the white African farmers once demonized and stripped of their land and livelihoods under Robert Mugabe’s Marxist dictatorship in Zimbabwe didn’t just vanish into thin air. These fighters packed up, crossed the border, and rebuilt. And guess what? They’re doing amazing. If you don’t recall, back in the early 2000s, Zimbabwe’s government kicked off a so-called “land reform” plan that drove white farmers off their land, often violently, and handed them over to Black Zimbabweans. Roughly, about four thousand white farmers were forced out, and many were attacked or...

Undercover video shows a Western Carolina University director of institutional assessment detailing a ‘strategy’ to ‘embed’ DEI. The WCU administrator caught on camera is ‘no longer employed by the university,’ a school spokesperson says. ... She went on to explain that if DEI is not explicitly mentioned in an office or title, it can remain undetected by legislators. “It is easier for them to be like, well, you need to get rid of that position because it has that niche title,” she says in the video. “Well, if we don’t create titles, and that it’s more just the work you...

The 75th anniversary edition of George Orwell's novel 1984, which coined the term "thoughtcrime" to describe the act of having thoughts that question the ruling party's ideology, has become an ironic lightning rod in debates over alleged trigger warnings and the role of historical context in classic literature. The introduction to the new edition, endorsed by Orwell's estate and written by the American author Dolen Perkins-Valdezm, is at the center of the storm, drawing fire from conservative commentators as well as public intellectuals, and prompting a wide spectrum of reaction from academics who study Orwell's work. Perkins-Valdez opens the introduction...

The Harvard Law Review retaliated against a student editor for allegedly leaking documents to the Washington Free Beacon and demanded, as part of the journal’s disciplinary process, that he request their destruction, according to emails obtained by the Free Beacon. The demand came as the law review was under a document retention order stemming from multiple federal probes, raising questions about whether the journal was also trying to interfere with a government investigation. The Justice Department told Harvard on May 13 that it was investigating reports of racial discrimination at the journal, according to the New York Times. A week...

Nearly a dozen aviation insiders, including a whistleblower who filed a federal complaint, asserted that diversity initiatives cause unneeded distractions.. For one veteran airline captain, a routine flight to Denver changed her view about aviation safety—but not because of an in-flight crisis. Rather, the captain heard a story that—for the first time in her decades-long career—made her uneasy about putting her loved ones on a plane. During a 2024 conversation, a flight instructor described unusual steps managers had taken to salvage the career of a young female trainee pilot. The instructor described an “egregious” example of the apparent relaxing of...

I’m a retired New York attorney. For decades, renewing my attorney registration was straightforward. You paid the fee, confirmed your status, and moved on with your life. Not anymore. Now, in 2025, the Unified Court System has decided they need to know whether I identify as transgender, nonbinary, intersex, or “none of the above.” I wish I was joking. See for yourself: This is not just a form. It’s an ideological loyalty test disguised as “data collection.” These questions are optional but it’s in little tiny lettering — and I might have filled it out had I not read the...
