You do not have to throw out "maybe DEI went too far" as some sort of show of charity and good faith.

These people are full of shit, and that shit is bigotry. It's not complicated.

"The department signaled that it was reviewing claims of discrimination against white men at The Harvard Law Review..."

I'm sorry, I have to laugh. This is patently absurd. These people are delusional. Do not concede anything to these lazy, aggrieved, utterly delusional clowns.

A colleague at Stanford’s business school used The Stanford Daily to argue—poorly—against DEI. The piece was riddled with historical errors and left one searching for fact, so I broke my public writing hiatus to respond.

I hope you’ll read and share the piece.

What DEI threatens isn’t merit. It’s monopoly.
Political science professor Hakeem Jefferson argues for DEI's importance to de-monopolizing universities.

Marriott’s CEO said it straight: “We welcome all… we create opportunities for all… that’s who we are as a company.”

He went back to his hotel to find 40K emails from Marriott associates worldwide saying “thank you.”

Plenty of CEOs talk. Capuano showed up.

Marriott still has my business.

See this is what I mean. Mississippi is a state with a 40% Black population. African American candidate Mike Espy garnered nearly 45% of the vote in the 2020 General Election for the U.S. Senate.

Why isn’t there a 10 yr Dem plan for organizing Mississippi? Why concede the state w/a 40% Black pop?
NEW: Mississippi Gov. Tate Reeves has declared April 2025 as Confederate Heritage Month.

He did so at the behest of the Sons of Confederate Veterans, a neo-Confederate organization that espouses “Lost Cause” ideology, which whitewashes the role of slavery in the Civil War. 🧵

I remind you that 50% of Hispanic men and 30% of Hispanic women VOTED FOR themselves to be racially profiled and detained without reason, and disappeared in the middle of the night,

by people who HATE them because of their skin color and accents.

Still befuddles me.

Without due process, this could be you. It could be me. It could be any or all of us.

It doesn’t matter who you voted for. Or the color of your skin.

You must understand what is truly at stake here.

All tyranny needs to thrive is for people of good conscience to remain silent.

No biggie. This man is temporarily in charge of, and Trump wants to put him permanently in charge of, one of the two United States Attorney’s offices that handle the most national-security matters.

If passed by Congress, the SAVE Act would be the worst voting law in U.S. history. And a new executive order on elections is more a malevolent press release than real policy.

All I keep thinking about is how Pete Hegseth raised questions of the competency of a Black four-star general and Air Force fighter pilot who was the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Hegseth asked did he get the job “because of his skin color? Or his skill? We’ll never know, but always doubt.”
