President Trump revealed Friday in a pair of tweets that he has directed the Treasury Department to review the tax-exempt status of colleges and universities, saying many of them are “about Radical Left Indoctrination, not Education.”
He is correct, they are.
An academic paper from 2019 defies the current progressive narrative about police targeting minorities. The paper has been cited by right leaning scholars, such as Heather Mac Donald of the Manhattan Institute.
Now the authors of the paper are seeking to retract it.
The City Council of Minneapolis recently voted unanimously to defund the city’s police department. Now certain members of the council claim they are getting threats, so they have been given private security.
At taxpayer expense, naturally.
As cancel anything pre-Marxist Black Lives Matters moves from Confederate cancellation to all of American history, Princeton University has caved to the radical left’s demands that it remove Woodrow Wilson’s name from its public policy school.
The recent efforts to oust police unions from the larger labor movement are alarming. Not because I am a fan of public unions, I’m not, but because of what it reveals about the tactics of the left in demonizing, isolating, and eventually destroying their target du jour.
Dr. Stephen Hsu is a professor of theoretical physics at Michigan State University, where he also served as the vice president for research and innovation. He is now one of the latest casualties of the manic cancel culture currently gripping academia.
Tiffany Riley, the principal of Windsor High School in Vermont, has been laced on leave for a comment she made on social media about the Black Lives Matter movement. Riley’s Facebook post prompted an emergency meeting of the local school board which was “uniformly appalled.”
Berklee College of Music is located on Massachusetts Avenue, in the heart of Boston’s Back Bay neighborhood. During the protests for George Floyd, Boston police officers were posted near the school and were allowed to use the school’s bathrooms.

Young Democratic voters are not particularly excited about the prospect of voting for Joe Biden, and who can blame them? The primary began with over 20 candidates and ended with, well, Joe Biden.

We recently pointed out that Stacey Abrams is now campaigning to be Joe Biden’s running mate. Naturally, she has to have an opinion on when Georgia’s economy should be reopened, and of course, it’s negative.
At least she is finally acknowledging she is not the governor of Georgia.
While the nation has been focused on the Coronavirus crisis, Virginia Governor Ralph Northam and his Democrat-controlled legislature, have been hard at work passing new laws.
Northam has signed numerous bills into law on everything from abortion to gun control. Virginia as we knew it is gone.
Now that Bernie Sanders has suspended his campaign, Joe Biden is truly the presumptive Democratic nominee. Progressives are wasting no time letting Biden know what he must do to win their votes.
