Blinken and Richetti both served as managing directors while Kahl was a strategic consultant at the center.

Fraternity reported for ‘bias incident’ of wearing construction outfits on May 5"...It wasn’t a Cinco de Mayo party.
It had no sombreros or tacos, as far as anyone knows.
Yet the University of Chicago’s Phi Gamma Delta, known casually as FIJI, has nonetheless been reported for the “bias incident” of throwing a party where attendees wore construction outfits.
Yet the University of Chicago’s Phi Gamma Delta, known casually as FIJI, has nonetheless been reported for the “bias incident” of throwing a party where attendees wore construction outfits.
- Relevant to know: Its fraternity house has been “under renovation and construction for two years.”
- The left-wing Latino student group MEChA issued a veiled threat May 4 to anyone who might violate “the fine line between celebrating culture on a national holiday and undermining the cultural dignity of a group through ignorant and ill-intentioned appropriation.” (Note to MEChA: May 5 is not a national holiday in Mexico.)
- Because some people showed up in construction gear anyway, FIJI showed its “privilege and authority by blatantly disregarding the concerns of marginalized groups without facing disciplinary actions,” the letter says:
- Moreover, this event was an attack on the mental and emotional well-being of marginalized students on campus...

CNN reporter calls out Biden over border visit, delivers fact-check on WH excuse for why Biden didn't interact with migrants - TheBlaze:
CNN reporter Rosa Flores called out President Joe Biden on Monday for not actually seeing any migrants when he visited El Paso on Sunday.
Biden visited the border city, an epicenter of the migrant crisis, on Sunday. It was his first official visit to the southern border. Still, the visit earned swift criticism because Biden did not actually witness any of the chaos that has plagued El Paso since migrants began flooding into the city. The areas where Biden visited were even cleaned up.

The study attempts to show how critical race theory made its way into the public education system by investigating the curricula used to train teachers.
The Creepy Cult Surrounding the Gas Stove Panic Gets Exposed
The Creepy Cult Surrounding the Gas Stove Panic Gets Exposed"If you’ve been on social media the last day or so, you’ve probably noticed there’s a moral panic occurring over gas stoves.
According to Democrats far and wide, they are dangerous, cause asthma, and must be banned by the federal government.
As RedState reported, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez pushed that line on Tuesday, resulting in much mockery given she herself has a gas stove.
As RedState reported, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez pushed that line on Tuesday, resulting in much mockery given she herself has a gas stove.
But what’s astonishing is that amidst her absolute certainty on the topic, she had never even mentioned the issue prior.
In other words, in the span of just 24 hours, Ocasio-Cortez saw some questionable study, promoted it on the internet, gained legions of supporters for her position, and then tried to pretend that everyone else had been ignoring her desperate calls. As Charles W. Cooke notes, it’s cultish behavior...

FDA vaccine advisers 'disappointed' and 'angry' that early data about new Covid-19 booster shot wasn't presented for review last year | CNN"...That data suggested the possibility that the updated booster might not be any more effective at preventing Covid-19 infections than the original shots.
The data was early and had many limitations, but several advisers told CNN that they were concerned about a lack of transparency.
US taxpayers spent nearly $5 billion on the new booster, which has been given to more than 48.2 million people in the US...

The 'Electrification' Of Our Economy Is The Latest Eco-Scam - Climate Change Dispatch
"...Beege wrote a must-read post on this yesterday. Must. Read.
"Now I have no problem, in principle, with reducing the carbon footprint of the economy, as long as it can be done with inexpensive, abundant, and reliable power sources that perform the job as well or better than fossil fuels...
...The activists pushing for uber-electrification (I won’t call them climate alarmists, because I suspect many of them aren’t actually alarmed, but playacting for effect) absolutely know that our current and near-future electrical generation and transmission cannot conceivably produce enough power to keep our economy going.

President Biden ignores question on why classified documents were found at his think tank | Fox News:
Records from Biden's time as vice president were discovered at the think tank by his personal attorneys on Nov. 2, and included a "small number of documents with classified markings," the White House said. The National Archives were notified and took possession of the documents the following day.
"The documents were not the subject of any previous request or inquiry by the Archives," White House special counsel Richard Sauber said in a statement. "Since that discovery, the President's personal attorneys have cooperated with the Archives and the Department of Justice in process to ensure that any Obama-Biden Administration records are appropriately in the possession of the Archives."

Why Does Peter Hotez Think We Are Mass Murderers?
- The sad story of how an unhealthy father became the bane of the autism community and the leading advocate for vaccine tyranny.
Although I am used to seeing inflammatory approaches like this being used to silence debates, I was nonetheless quite taken aback by the WHO’s recent tweet (watch it; it’s only 52 seconds long):
“Anti-vaccine activism, which I actually call anti-science aggression, has now become a major killing force globally."
- @PeterHotez, Professor and Dean @BCM_TropMed, on the devastating impact of #misinformation and disinformation.
Before we go any further, I would like to note that that there is no way Peter Hotez could have made this video himself, and it was most likely produced by a PR firm...
