STUDENTS FOR FAIR ADMISSIONS v. PRESIDENT AND FELLOWS OF HARVARD COLLEGE: All in all, 20 “friend of the court” briefs have been filed urging the Supreme Court to grant review of the case about Harvard’s race-preferential admissions (including one by Peter Kirsanow and me). Another one of the briefs–filed by Californians for Equal Rights–was based on an article written by Alex Heideman and me, so I’ve got a double stake in this. I’m crossing my fingers. I hope you are too.
KRUISER’S MORNING BRIEF: I’ve Known Maxine Waters Is Evil for a Very Long Time. “Blaming ‘rhetoric’ for violence has long been their thing. These are the lunatics who tried to blame a target on political literature for Jared Loughner shooting Gabby Giffords, after all. In their tiny minds, however, it’s only Republicans who have inflammatory rhetoric. They’ve been lying about Trump since Jan. 6th and now they’re running cover for Waters’s actually inflammatory words.”
NOBODY SEEMS THAT THRILLED THAT HE’S PRESIDENT, ACTUALLY: Voters Skeptical of Joe Biden’s Cognitive Health, Poll Finds.
RICHARD FERNANDEZ: Western Civilization’s Growing Intellectual Dead Zones. “The world is living through a crisis of civilization which differs from ordinary disruption in that it involves not a breakdown of physical systems, as might be caused by a natural disaster or technological failure, but is a malaise afflicting the intellectual functioning of society itself. By its nature a civilizational crisis affects elite institutions, the dominant ideology, the core operating system of an ruling system. It is not a breakdown of the backward periphery but a madness in the heart of empire, a rot in its ivory towers.”
The intellectual decay is not happening by accident.
JEFF BEZOS, PROGRESSIVE UNION-BUSTER: Amazon illegally interfered in Alabama warehouse election, union alleges in complaint to federal officials. “The union claims Amazon intimidated employees and manipulated conditions around the voting process, preventing a ‘free and fair’ election.
Looks like the mainstream media finally found some election fraud concerns they’ll report fairly.
YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN SOCIETY UNLESS YOU HOLD APPROVED VIEWS: Utah news outlet runs entire segment about local paramedic for … donating $10 to Kyle Rittenhouse.
And even in Utah, the alleged defenders of freedom in the news media are gleeful enforcers of social discipline.
Hey, news media: Don’t want people to think of you as garbage? Try not being garbage. This, by the way, is garbage.

BIDEN INJECTING CRT INTO CIVICS CLASSES: Stanley Kurtz at National Review puts a new Biden administration proposed rule under the microscope and finds a new variant of the Critical Race Theory (CRT) cancer – public school civics classes.
The proposed Department of Education rule establishes grant criteria for new civics education programs that explicitly require the teaching of CRT tenets, beginning with the “systemic racism” pogrom against the American experience. And why not, since the Chief Executive himself repeats the lie on a regular basis.
And don’t miss Hans Bader’s detailed assessment on Liberty Unyielding of the devastating critiques of CRT that have appeared from historians across the ideological spectrum, including the Worldwide Socialist Web Site that described the 1619 Project as “a politically motivated falsification of history.”

I WASN’T FEELING REALLY WELL YESTERDAY, SO I FORGOT TO LINK MY SUNDAY INDIE PROMO POST: Book Promo And Vignettes by Luke, Mary Catelli and ‘Nother Mike.

I’VE STARTED A NEWSLETTER. THIS ONE IS MOSTLY DEVOTED TO MY FICTION: Schrodinger Path.
There will also be snippets, pictures of my cats, and updates on what’s coming out when and what projects I’m involved with.
I’m trying to figure out if there’s a way to use the subscription function to give people a way to buy my books bypassing Amazon. (And getting in them in other formats also.) I can’t afford to leave Amazon (yet) because that’s where casual readers who aren’t yet fans are. But there might be a way to get advance sales to my fans by other means.
Experiments will happen.
