*multiple sources go on the record with TV’s most respected news show about a government kidnapping/torture program*

BARI: Can’t run it ‘til Stephen Miller calls me back.

*one parent tells Bari about something that may have happened at Chapin*

BARI: We do not need to hear Chapin’s side.

When Bari Weiss wrote about the national crisis of “woke private schools,” all of her sources were anonymous students, parents, and teachers who agreed with her premise—and she ran the story without getting a school on the record, for “context.”
— The Miseducation of America's Elites Affluent parents, terrified of running afoul of the new orthodoxy in their children's private schools, organize in secret. By Bari Weiss 03.09.21 -Education In a backyard behind a four-bedroom home, ten people sat in a circle of plastic Adirondack chairs, eating bags of Skinny Pop. These are the rebels: well-off Los Angeles parents who send their children to Harvard-Westlake, the most prestigious private school in the city. By normal American standards, they are quite wealthy. By the standards of Harvard-Westlake, they are average. The parents in the backyard say that for every one of them, there are many more, too afraid to speak up. "I've talked to at least five couples who say: I get it. I think the way you do. I just don't want the controversy right now," related one mother. They are all eager for their story to be told - but not a single one would let me use their name. They worry about losing their jobs or hurting their children if their opposition to this ideology were known. Consider this story, from Chapin, the tony all-girls school on the Upper East Side, involving a white girl in the lower grades who came home one day and told her father: "All people with lighter skin don't like people with darker skin and are mean to them." He was horrified as she explained that that was what she had been taught by her teachers. "I said to her: that's not how we feel in this family." It's worth taking a look at Chapin's various affinity groups, which have become de rigueur at all of these schools. (Chapin did not respond to a request for comment.)

NEW: The Trump admin has fired members of the Cyber Safety Review Board, a committee that was lauded for its investigation into Microsoft hacks of 2023, and was working on the recent Salt Typhoon telco hacks.

One source called it a “horribly shortsighted” decision.
