Looking To Tamp Down Controversy, Yale
Law School Restricts Access to Free Speech Panel

Original Article

In March 2022, hundreds of students at Yale Law School disrupted a panel with Kristen Waggoner, a conservative lawyer who has argued religious liberty cases before the Supreme Court, arguing that her presence was a "slap in the face" to "queer students." Yale's response to the incident left the school with egg on its face: Though the protest clearly violated Yale's free speech policies, which do not allow protesters to disrupt speakers, not a single student was disciplined. Now Waggoner is returning to Yale Law for another talk. And this time, administrators aren't leaving anything to chance, banning press and anyone without a Yale Law School ID, including undergraduate students,

One of my way back-in-the-day ancestors was one of the founding fathers of Yale. He came to this country to find religious freedom. He and the others that founded this university must be spinning in their graves.

Why doesn't the left have any restrictions on their free speech. They have gotten pretty nasty, and urge and commit violence on those that don't agree with them.

It is difficult for the progressive left when they are forced to adhere to Constitutional principles. Life would be so much easier if only they could drop all pretenses and simply put on Nazi uniforms.

No judgeships for these law school graduates. The school and its student continue to demonstrate their unfitness for upholding and defending the Constitution of the USA. Their ignorance is laid bare. Their stupidity is there for all to see and be horrified in the seeing: if they can't see how the premier Right of the American people is the Right to Free Speech, and conscience (religion). Have to admit, Hillary was right on one thing, and that is "we have a right to debate and disagree with anyone..." All dictators attempt to stifle or eliminate oppositional views, and all of them eventually get strangled by that insuppressible human need and desire to search for truth and express one's thoughts and opinions. Where there's no freedom of speech, there is no civilization, no society worth living in again.

Whale meat vending machine business continues
boom in Japan

Posted by Imright 1/28/2023 6:58:09 PM Post Reply
A new set of whale meat vending machines debuted in Japan this week. Kyodo Senpaku Co., a Japanese whaling operator, unveiled them in the port town of Yokohama, approximately 20 miles from its capital city of Tokyo. This is the third vending machine outlet the company has installed in an effort to promote sales after years of struggling to promote its products due to whale conservationists’ protests. (Photos) In 2018, Japan put an end to the hunting of the animal in the Antarctic and resumed commercial whaling off its coasts. That moved halted the protesters, but the groups still oppose the new machines.

On this day in history, Jan. 28, 1986, the space shuttle Challenger — scheduled for a routine launch from Cape Canaveral in Florida — exploded after just 73 seconds in flight, killing all seven Americans on board. The disaster shocked the nation — and led to an immediate pause in the space shuttle program. The cause of the disaster was found to be the failure of the primary and secondary redundant O-ring seals in a joint in the shuttle's right solid rocket booster (SRB). While the mission on that fateful day in 1986 was supposed to be like any other routine mission,
Pelosi Attacker David DePape's Chilling
Call to Local CA News Station

I think it’s safe to say that David DePape, Paul Pelosi’s alleged attacker, has more than a few issues. We saw the harrowing body cam video where he attacked Pelosi with the hammer, as well as the Capitol Police surveillance video showing how he broke into the Pelosi home. Capitol Police were not monitoring the video at the time because Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) was out of town. We also heard the troubling call Paul Pelosi made to a 911 operator. But DePape also made a wild call to KTVU, a local California news station on Friday, to deliver an “important message.”

Steve Hilton is host of The Steve Hilton Show and served as director of strategy for the British Prime Minister David Cameron. Republican Congressman George Santos is rightly in the middle of a media and political storm over his astonishing series of lies about everything from his career experience to his family history.

But there’s another congressional fabulist whose lies are far more serious and who isn’t facing nearly the same level of scrutiny: Adam Schiff.

Donald Trump's first high-profile 2024 campaign event had him sounding more like a politician than he did during any of his 2016 or 2020 rallies – showing the ex-president may be ready to 'play ball' in his third presidential campaign. He also said that Joe Biden running the country makes every day feel like April Fools Day. While Trump did resurrect some of his greatest hits during remarks at the New Hampshire Republican Party's annual meeting on Saturday afternoon, he mostly stuck to the script. He did, however, make sure to reassure voters that he is still 'angry' and still invested in winning and promised the rallies are coming 'soon.'

President Donald Trump is the only Western leader who has consistently calling for a de-escalation of the Russian-Ukrainian War. In early September Trump warned the Russia-Ukraine War could lead to World War III and could lead to a nuclear war. Later that month, President offered to step in and mediate a peace deal between Russia, Ukraine, and the US. Earlier this week President Trump posted this on Truth Social.On Saturday President Trump will speak at the New Hampshire GOP Convention.

Protests over the police beating death of Tyre Nichols turned violent in Times Square Friday night as several arrests were made, including of a man who stomped on the windshield of an NYPD police cruiser.  At least three people were handcuffed in the Crossroads of the World after getting into some sort of confrontation with police in the street.  In another chaotic scene, one of the protesters hopped on the hood of a police car and cracked the windshield with his foot. Several police officers quickly moved in to grab the man and then they led him through the crowd into a police precinct, footage shows.

The US is in the midst of a catastrophic fentanyl epidemic that is causing an eye-watering number of deaths and tearing the fabric of American society apart. The ultra-strong opioid being cut with virtually every street drug in the country killed a record 75,000 Americans in 2021, the equivalent of 1,500 lives lost every week.  Fentanyl - which is 100 times more potent than morphine - started off as a cheap and potent alternative to heroin and was used by only the most hardcore drug addicts in the US, who mainly injected it or smoked it through a pipe.

Joe Biden’s expected re-election bid will thrust his wife, Jill Biden, further into the public eye, as the White House deploys the self-described introvert to help win over women. What little polling exists in regard to the first lady, who is 71, suggests she’s unknown to many Americans, even after two years at the side of the world’s most powerful person. But within the White House she is understood to be the president’s closest and most protective confidante. “She is his gut check on everything,” said Michael LaRosa, former press secretary to the first lady and special assistant to the

Ronna McDaniel won a fourth term to head the Republican National Committee (RNC) during a secret ballot vote by members on Friday, capping off a contentious election spurred by calls within the party for new leadership. McDaniel fended off two challengers — California attorney Harmeet Dhillon and MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell, a staunch denier of the 2020 presidential election results. She received 111 votes, while Dhillon received 51 and Lindell received four. Former Rep. Lee Zeldin (R-N.Y.), who did not ultimately make a run for RNC chair, also received one vote.

As RedState reported, Ronna McDaniel has been re-elected as the chair of the Republican National Committee. That followed a contentious, months-long battle with notable GOP lawyer Harmeet Dhillon, who ultimately ended up well short of the number to overtake McDaniel. (Tweets) McDaniel is now the longest-serving party chair in modern American history. What did she do to deserve that honor? She and her party lost the 2018 election, lost the 2020 election, and severely underperformed in the 2022 election. Apparently, being a consistent loser is all it takes to win the blessing of the GOP’s party elite. Why? Because the Republican Party hates you.

The Biden administration is facing some scrutiny over a proposal to change the way it racially/ethnically classifies federal employees. At the moment, anyone of Middle Eastern or North African descent only has the option of identifying/being classified as “white.” Were the administration’s proposal to be approved, these individuals would instead have the option of identifying as Middle Eastern or North African. The proposal would accomplish this by rewriting the Office of Management and Budget 1997 Statistical Policy Directive No. 15: Standards for Maintaining, Collecting, and Presenting Federal Data on Race and Ethnicity (SPD 15).
