WINNING: Anti-CRT Candidates Stomp Leftists in Texas School Board Elections.

EVER WONDER WHERE THE WORD ‘DISINFORMATION’ CAME FROM? Well, J. Michael Waller points to the Soviet KGB as the inventor of the term:

“’Disinformation’ is not a word from the English language. It is a direct translation of the Russian word dezinformatsiya. It is a KGB form of tradecraft from the Red Banner Institute of the KGB First Chief Directorate, otherwise known as the KGB foreign spy academy.

“Disinformation is definition 159 in the KGB’s ‘Lexicon of KGB Terms,’ published internally by the Soviet foreign intelligence service before 1984. Here it is: ‘Misleading by means of false information; A form of intelligence work in the Active Measures field, which consists of the secret channeling towards an adversary of false information, especially prepared materials and fabricated documents designed to mislead him and prompt him to take decisions and measures which fit with the plans and intentions of the Intelligence Service.’”

Ya think Biden knows … or would care if he did?

THREE THINGS GOP MUST DO IN 2023: Spencer Chretien offers three actions he believes Republicans must take in 2023 if they regain Senate and House majorities. Number three is to “meaningfully confront the national security state.” I absolutely agree, but how about this for number four: Meaningfully DEFUND the Administrative State” and do it on Day One?

FILING TODAY:  Pete Kirsanow are I are filing our Amicus Curiae Brief in Students For Fair Admissions v. Harvard today.  It is an expanded version of the brief we filed last year at the cert stage.  The most significant addition is a discussion of the Hispanic Serving Institution program.  Did you know that a university whose student body is at least 25% Hispanic can be entitled to large federal subsidies?  If you’re thinking this could cause colleges and universities to engage in ever-larger preferences for Hispanic students in order to get its share of the federal honeypot, you’re obviously right.  This is a big deal at the U.S. Department of Education and also at the National Science Foundation.  There’s a lot of federal money out there.
