The NYT believes it's a "free speech problem" that government employees can't promote collective guilt and early sexualization to kindergartners. It's not only wrong—public school teachers do not have unlimited First Amendment rights in the classroom—it's dangerous.

The people, through their democratically-elected legislators, get to decide which values their public institutions transmit to the next generation. Policymakers have the authority and the obligation to shape public institutions toward the public good.

Public school teachers cannot do whatever they want. They must follow the standards enacted by the state legislature, submit to the authority of democratically-elected school boards, and serve the parents and families who are their primary stakeholders.

Ketanji Brown Jackson is a lifelong admirer of the father of critical race theory, Derrick Bell, who wrote that the Constitution was like "roach powder," that whites might commit "racial genocide," and that his motto was "I live to harass white folks."

This isn't a speech from thirty years ago. It's from January 20, 2020. She endorses a book that was foundational to critical race theory and made the case that, given the choice, whites would trade African-Americans away to space aliens and banish them from the universe.

This isn't just metaphorical. Bell told NPR's Fresh Air he believed whites would make the trade in real life. He argued in the book that the history of slavery was not only "an example of what white America has done," but "a constant reminder of what white American might do."

It's been interesting to watch the postmodern elements of the Biden administration—from the Jen Psaki "inflation doesn't exist" press briefings to the TikTok influencer propaganda videos—crumble under the modernist concerns of gas prices, product shortages, and physical war.

The White House policy staff sees filled with people who have lived exclusively in the digital and symbolic world. They act as if physical things just appear at gas stations and Walmart distribution centers. If they get the words right, perception and reality will follow.

Buttigieg is a good indicator: during the worst supply chain crisis in recent history, he was taking paternity leave, promoting eco-friendly bike lanes, and declaring that roads are racist. Equal parts narcissism and delusion.

A public school in San Antonio segregated fifth-grade students by hair color, subjected them to harassment and abuse, and showed them graphic photos of murdered black children—all as part of a twisted "antiracism" lesson.

Here's the story. 🧵

As NBC-San Antonio first reported, teachers at Leon Springs Elementary School separated students into oppressor and oppressed categories based on hair color. Teachers told the dark-haired kids they were "privileged" and told the fair-haired kids they were "not as intelligent."

Then the teachers gave the fair-haired students a game with pieces missing so they could not play, suggesting that they deserved mistreatment. After the game was over, the teachers forced the fair-haired children to clean up after the "privileged" children.

Beto O'Rourke becomes the first prominent Democrat to flip against critical race theory.

"I don't think [CRT] should be taught in our schools."

Beto is a shameless flip-flopper, but the lesson is clear: critical race theory is toxic with voters and the Democrats' polling on culture war issues has collapsed. Conservatives must go on offense. Make the opposition defend CRT and bash them through the midterms.

Beto has given Republicans a gift. They can now say "even Beto O'Rourke says critical race theory shouldn't be taught in schools."

These women are running a "Sexy Summer Camp" for children in rural Kentucky, with lessons on "sex liberation," "gender exploration," "BDSM," "being a sex worker," "self-managed abortions," and "sexual activity while using licit and illicit drugs."

Here's the agenda for the camp. I'll be doing a more extensive report in the coming weeks.

The leader of Sexy Summer Camp recommends that children begin to masturbate as toddlers.

"Masturbation is really healthy and I recommend it to people of all ages. All ages. As soon as my nephews could talk, they were doing that."
