Asian American voters shifted right…by A LOT

National exit polls underestimated the rightward shifts of AA in major urban areas. WaPo, NBC found a shift under 10 pts

My analysis of Asian-majority precincts show shifts of 15-30 pts

Why the shift? AA voters explain⬇️ Image
1) Punished for being too successful

“The injustice of being labeled as privileged, selfish, cheaters, overrepresented, white adjacent, and resource hoarders hurt very deeply” @AsraNomani Image
2) The anti-crime election

“You only understand what you signed up for after Democrats win and you have to put up with crime and squalor” @DasguptaTeesta Image
3) Inflation

“Las Vegas is like an island in the middle of the desert, the increase of fuel costs trickled down to the pockets of consumers at the grocery stores w/goods being transported from CA to Las Vegas” @LibertyLumpia Image
What should Democrats and Republicans make of these shifts? Read more @RCPolitics

🧵New Axios/Generation Lab Poll on pro-Palestinian campus protests:

1) 81% of college students think universities should hold protesters accountable for destroying, vandalizing, or illegally occupying buildings Image
2) Pro-Israel protesters (64%) are more likely to be friends with someone who disagrees w/them than anti-Israel protesters (42%) Image
3) Among students who agreed w/ “from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” 1/3 still don’t know from which river and to which sea

Likely an overestimate of people who know the meaning of the phrase since it was multiple choice

🧵In my new @WSJopinion piece, I go through a proposal from Illinois that would embed race into state funding for universities

Let’s just say the state gov’t takes identity politics to a new level by placing price tags on the oppression hierarchy Image
The IL Commission on Equitable Public Funding wants to alter the state funding model for “equity” purposes

Goal: create incentives for universities to enroll more black, “Latinx” students

Price tag: $1.4 billion/year

How is race injected into the formula? Image
IL would pay to help universities increase enrollment of minority students. Larger amounts set aside for groups the commission considers disadvantaged:

Black: $6K bonus/each enrolled student

Hispanic: $4K bonus

Rural: $2K bonus

White/Asian: you don’t count, sorry! Image

🚨BREAKING🚨

Writing for the @PittsburghPG, I found that Carnegie Mellon University could owe the Pennsylvania government $700M+ (~25% of its endowment value) for failing to report its funds from Qatar

🧵Here’s what happened:
Since 2003, Qatar has paid Carnegie Mellon University to operate a branch campus in Qatar. Through this arrangement, Carnegie Mellon received nearly $700 million from Qatar since 2010, and did not report any of it to PA
Some of you might know that the federal gov’t requires universities to report foreign funds above $250K. What is less known is that some states, like PA, also require foreign funds reporting.

In my @tabletmag debut, I expose the relationship between international student recruitment, DEI policies, and left-wing activism on American campuses

Here are some important takeaways you should know⬇️
tabletmag.com/sections/news/…
1) Today, there are over 1 million foreign students enrolled at American universities (5% of the total student population)

The process of internationalization used to be slow, but the number of international students doubled between 2000 and 2015 Image
2) Universities view foreign students as an important revenue source

57% of international students pay out of pocket to attend American universities

3% receive foreign government/org support

That 3% can be particularly troublesome (cont.) Image

Many have speculated that universities dropping out of rankings, going test-optional is to prepare for a world without affirmative action.

In a new article for @LawLiberty, I provide proof that this is all intentional🧵 Image
The College Board’s “playbook” offers 3 strategies that universities could adopt to skirt the law:

1) Relaxed admissions standards
2) Race attentive outreach + recruitment
3) Service commitments associated w/race

The goal is to avoid triggering strict scrutiny by the courts
Play 1: Easy admissions standards

Many have caught on that universities dropping out of rankings, going test-optional is so colleges can adopt easier admissions criteria as they try to meet racial diversity metrics

Lax criteria = pathways to practice racial discrimination

64 hospitals lost 11,000+ employees due to C19 vaccine mandates

*hospitals mapped by headquarter location
While the raw numbers are large, keep in mind that those who were not vaccinated generally accounted for less than 1% of a hospital’s workforce

Here’s more info on hospitals where the incident type was reported:

Suspended: 3,898
Fired: 6,036
Resigned: 1,406
Hospitals include those affiliated with universities.

Data was compiled using various online sources. Big help from Becker Hospital Review and Fierce Healthcare
