This is fascism. [/quote]

Where are all the colleges? Only like 16 signed the amicus brief for Harvard.

So gross. Why aren’t they sticking together and protesting this corruption?[/quote]

They are splintering. There are so many hiding, trying not to draw attention to themselves.  This is how fascism is allowed to grow.  It’s how the Nazi movement spread- p

+1. They are all trying to keep their head down to avoid being the next shakedown victim.  It’s sad to see it come to this.  [/quote]

For all have sinned and the wages of sin are death[/quote]

The biggest sinner is one in the white house and enabled by spineless snakes.  But as my grandmother used to say, this too will pass.  I think of it like a really painful kidney stone that eventually gets flushed away.[/quote]

I know there is a lot of pushback in woke enclaves but for the overwhelming majority of the country, there are almost no political downsides to punishing woke colleges for being woke.

Every Republican president for the forseeable future is going to examine trump's policies and recognize that they can attack woke colleges and universities to bump their poll numbers.
This will happen EVERY Republican administration to a lesser or greater extent.
This is the new normal until the wokeness has been purged out of colleges the same way segregation was purged out of colleges.

So no, this will not simply pass.  Some of this is going to become a policy plank.

Border security and immigration enforcement is also going to become a policy plank, one that even the Democrats are going to have to adopt.

So many things I could say this word salad, but I’m short on time.  Here is a quick list:

1. Next president won’t be republican.  As dysfunctional as the dems are right now, the stagflation that Trump is creating will doom the republicans.  Inflation will tick up ~50 bps by the end of year and unemployment will do roughly the same.  The fed WILL lower rates, but it will only make the inflation hotter next year.  Trump will blame Obama and Biden.  He might even blame Kamala Harris even though she lost.

2. If woke means having empathy for those who aren’t white, male, and cis then it is a label that fits most in America whether they realize it or not. Given population trends etc, things are going to more woke before they get less, and what you are seeing is NOT where we will end up on DEI policies.

3. Most people want secure borders, but again - that does not mean abandoning all due process, identifying “illegals” based on their appearance, and indiscriminately  kicking people out. When this starts impacting the labor markets (and it will), the republicans will be the first ones to change their policies.  My best guess is that this will start in earnest after losing the midterms — right about the time the economy is in the crapper.

4. UCLA will countersue around the $1B and they may even drop the demand before it goes to court.  The $1B of damages has no basis, and it is a completely made up amount because it had nice ring to it.  I personally think it reminded Trump of the Dr Evil bit from the Austin Powers movie that he watched in his more lucid days.
