SCOOP: @LockheedMartin, the nation’s largest defense contractor, sent key executives to a three-day white male reeducation camp in order to deconstruct their “white male culture” and atone for their “white male privilege.”

I've obtained internal documents that will shock you.🧵
The program was led by the consulting firm White Men As Full Diversity Partners, which specializes in helping white males “awaken together.” The participants included a former three-star general and the vice president of production for the $1.7 trillion F-35 fighter jet program. Image
To begin, the diversity trainers led a “free association” exercise, asking the Lockheed employees to list connotations for the term “white men.” The trainers wrote down “old, racist, privileged, anti-women, angry, Aryan Nation, KKK, Founding fathers, guns, guilty, can’t jump.” ImageImage
The trainers then asked “what’s in it for white men,” listing responses: “I won’t get replaced by someone who is a better full diversity partner,” “[I will] improve the brand, image, reputation of white men,” and “I [will] have less nagging sense of guilt that I am the problem.” Image
White Men As Full Diversity Partners argues that the “roots of white male culture” include traits such as “rugged individualism,” “a can-do attitude,” “hard work,” “operating from principles,” and “striving towards success”—which are “devastating” to women and minorities. ImageImage
Next, participants were asked to repeat and internalize 50 “white privilege statements,” including: “My culture teaches me to minimize the perspectives and powers of people of other races”; “I can commit acts of terrorism, violence or crime and not have it attributed to my race.” ImageImage
Participants then repeated and internalized 59 “male privilege statements,” including: “My earning potential is 15-33% higher than a woman’s”; “My reproductive organs are not seen as the property of other men, the government, and/or even strangers because of my gender.” ImageImageImage
Next, participants repeated and internalized 59 “heterosexual privilege statements,” including: “I am not asked to think about why I am straight”; “I can have friendships with or work around children without being accused of recruiting or molesting them.” ImageImage
Finally, the white males read a series of “I’m tired” statements from fictitious racial minorities and women, including: “I’m tired of being Black”; “I’m tired of Black boys/girls being murdered”; “I’m tired of ... the concept that we should be ‘colorblind.’” ImageImage
This is pure neoracism from a company that receives billions of taxpayer dollars every year.

I call on the United States Senate to launch an immediate inquiry into the racist practices at @LockheedMartin. We must shut this down before it endangers our national security.
Here is the fully story, exclusively in City Journal. I will be on Tucker Carlson tonight at 8pm EST to offer further commentary.

EXCLUSIVE: Columbia professor Jennifer Manly marched with pro-Hamas encampment leaders and, according to public records, has been a recipient of $100 million in taxpayer funding for CRT-style research, which claims that racism causes Alzheimer's in black people.

🧵
This is Columbia University in April 2024. Jennifer Manly marched with pro-Hamas protestors and stood in a human blockade intending to prevent administrators from dismantling the unauthorized encampments, which shut down classes and was the base for illegal building occupations. Image

Image
But the real scandal is that Manly has been a recipient of more than $100 million in taxpayer funds for so-called "social determinants of health" research, which posits that racism, sexism, and homophobia cause brain disease in minorities—which critics call pseudoscience. Image

EXCLUSIVE: @GrossmanHannah and I have obtained logs from the NSA’s secret transgender sex chatroom, in which NSA, CIA, and DIA employees discuss genital castration, artificial vaginas, piss fetishes, sex polycules, and gangbangs—all on government time.

This is insane. 🧵
The NSA maintains a chat system for the "intelligence community" called Intelink. The servers are supposed to be used for government work, but gender activists have hijacked at least two channels—LBTQA and IC_Pride_TWG—to discuss fetishes, kink, and sex, all legitimized as "DEI." Image
One popular chat topic was male-to-female transgender surgery, which involves surgically removing the penis and turning it into an artificial vagina. These male intelligence agents love the feeling of penetration and of peeing with their pseudo-vaginas. Image

The Right must be more selective in the people it welcomes into the firmament. Conservatives have been locked out of elite institutions for so long, many will accept any celebrity that signals opposition to the Left—even a common pimp with a social media following. Image
There is a real danger that the Right becomes a dumping ground where failed celebrities land. While we should welcome high-quality defectors, we must have enough self-confidence to draw boundaries and reject those who simply want to farm the Right for clicks and power.
Two things happening here:

1. The Right's organic institutions have difficulty producing viable elites.

2. The Right's media figures feel pressure to chase the algorithm and a) turn themselves into Catturd-style slop; b) engage with human bait such as Andrew Tate for virality.

The Left is spiritually stuck in 1963. Their entire politics is a reenactment. Boomer libs want to live in an endless loop of the civil rights era, but America has moved on and we do not need to indulge their fantasy of permanent adolescent rebellion.
We've had the Great Society and the Civil Rights Act—which, in fact, led to systematic discrimination on behalf of minorities—for 60 years. We've spent trillions on the Left's social utopia. But they still pretend they're "marching on Washington" with the dispossessed.
These people are incapable of taking responsibility for the regime they have created. They can only imagine themselves in opposition because they have no desire to grapple with the failures of their policies and the reasons for continuing inequalities. It's stupid songs forever.

The cause here is noble, but the implementation, like the related executive order, is a misstep. The whole point of the "abolish DEI" campaign is to stop having special carve-outs, programs, and commitments on the basis of race or ethnoreligious identity. The better approach is to have a single colorblind standard that will fight harassment and discrimination against any group. We can have a Task Force on Campus Equality, which, in practice, will address the significant antisemitism problem, while retaining the higher principle.

I laid out the basic argument with Jenin Younes in the Free Press, related to the Antisemitism Awareness Act: thefp.com/p/dont-expand-….
Supporters of this initiative should ask themselves: How is it reasonable to support a Task Force on Antisemitism while opposing an Ibram Kendi-style Task Force on Anti-Black Racism (i.e., DEI)? And by the same principle, how is it reasonable to support a Task Force on Antisemitism without also supporting a Task Force of Anti-White Racism and a Task Force on Anti-Asian Racism, both of which are widespread on campuses? How is it consistent for the administration to abolish DEI, then establish a special task force for one, rather than all, of these groups?
It's a serious problem, as I've showed in my reporting, but all of it can be addressed by delineating the behavior of the perpetrators—harassment, disruption, occupation, support for terror, etc.—in a colorblind manner.

EXCLUSIVE: Kamala Harris plagiarized at least a dozen sections of her criminal-justice book, Smart on Crime, according to a new investigation. The current vice president even lifted material from Wikipedia.

We have the receipts. 🧵
The investigation was conducted by Dr. Stefan Weber, a famed Austrian "plagiarism hunter" who has taken down politicians in the German-speaking world. We independently confirmed multiple violations, which are comparable in severity to the plagiarism found in former Harvard president Claudine Gay's doctoral thesis.Image
Image
We can begin with a passage in which Harris discusses high school graduation rates. Here, she lifted verbatim language from an uncited AP/NBC News report: Image
