NEW: The Michigan Department of Education instructed public school teachers how to facilitate child sexual transitions and recommended that teachers keep a child's "chosen name and pronouns" a secret from parents, even if the child is suicidal.

It's all on video. 🧵
The training program follows the basic narrative of radical gender theory: the presenters claim the West has created a false notion that “gender is binary” in order to oppress racial and sexual minorities. In response, teachers should work to “dismantle systems of oppression.”
Trainer Amorie Robinson, who says she is a “Black, masculine-identified, cisgendered lesbian” and uses the “African name” Kofi Adoma, says that gender is an infinite spectrum, including identities such as “genderfluid,” “genderqueer,” “butch,” “stud,” and “questioning.”
Next, Michigan Department of Education employee Kim Philips-Knope share a series of TikTok videos featuring minors and young adults exploring their sexual identity. One person identifies as "agender" and uses "she/her/they/them/he/him" pronouns.
In another video, the Michigan Department of Education promotes an individual who is “struggling with gender issues” and has started using breast binders and “they/them” pronouns. “I have never been happier with how my body looks.”
When a teacher asks how to respond to a student who claims to have “she/he/they/them” pronouns, the trainer responds adamantly: “Go with what the kid says. They’re the best experts on their lives. They’re the best experts on their own identities and their own bodies.”
Finally, the Michigan Department of Education instructs teachers how to facilitate child sexual transitions and recommends that they keep a child's “chosen name and pronouns” a secret from parents, even if the child is suicidal.

Law enforcement should make it clear to university presidents that, if they are unwilling to expel violent protestors, they cannot expect the police to serve as a foil and do the clean-up work. The universities made this mess; we should not allow them to shift the responsibility.
The best approach for law enforcement is to create containment zones, prevent violence, ignore provocations, and avoid displays of highly public enforcement, which allow the pro-Hamas demonstrators to play the victim. Hold the line; let the universities deal with it.
The other approach, which the feds successfully used in Portland during George Floyd, is to identify ringleaders who are engaged in illegal activity and do nighttime snatch-and-grabs. This avoids the spectacle of mass confrontation and removes the most significant threats.

The key is to lock in the circle of connotations around the Ivy League. They stacked faculties with “decolonization” scholars, recruited left-wing student activists, and hired sympathetic administrators. We need to drive internal conflicts and connect all of the dots in public.
The second step is to remind voters that they are subsidizing these ideologies, and, more importantly, these people, through direct federal support, student loans, and Biden’s debt payoff scheme (don’t call it “debt forgiveness”). Call to action should be “defund the Ivy League.”
It’s important to remember that we should not throw Ivy League administrators a lifeline. The Right should be careful not to overreact; the best approach is to remain quiet and let the Left tear itself apart. The longer the encampments stay, the more the Left will fracture.

EXCLUSIVE: @LukeRosiak and I have discovered that the DEI director of UCLA Medical School, Natalie J. Perry, plagiarized multiple long passages in her PhD dissertation, which is her only published academic work.

The plagiarism here is shocking. 🧵
UCLA Med School has been in the news recently for promoting ideology about "Indigenous womxn," "two-spirits," and "structural racism." A guest speaker praised and two residents championed "revolutionary suicide."

The DEI director, who advances "anti-racism," is Natalie Perry. Image
But according to our exclusive analysis, Perry's career is predicated on academic fraud. Her PhD dissertation plagiarized material from ten other papers, which she did not attribute or put in quotations. The examples are brazen:

EXCLUSIVE: Federal Reserve governor Lisa Cook is one of the most powerful economists in the world. But @LukeRosiak and I have discovered that her academic work appears to contain plagiarism, according to her former university’s policy.

The plagiarism scandal hits the Fed. 🧵
There have long been questions about Cook’s academic work. Her publication history is quite thin, contains serious methodological errors, and largely focuses on race activism rather than rigorous, quantitative econ. She had trouble getting approved by the Senate.
Image
Image
We have found that, in a series of academic papers spanning more than a decade, Cook appears to have copied language from other scholars without proper quotation and duplicated her own work and that of coauthors in multiple academic journals, without proper attribution.

Absolutely, I will share ten stories with original source documentation proving that this is, in fact, how many, if not most, Fortune 100 companies consider DEI.

EXCLUSIVE: Harvard racial-studies professor @ChristinaJCross plagiarized multiple passages in her dissertation and at least one other paper, according to a new complaint filed with Harvard’s research integrity office.

Harvard's plagiarism crisis is spinning out of control. 🧵
Christina Cross is a rising star in the field of critical race studies. She earned a Ph.D. from the University of Michigan, garnered attention from the New York Times, and won a slate of awards for her dissertation, including one from the American Sociological Association.
Image
Image
The most serious allegation in the complaint is that Cross lifted an entire paragraph nearly verbatim from a paper by Stacey Bosick and Paula Fomby—the latter of whom was her dissertation advisor—without citing the source or placing verbatim language in quotations.
