Harvard says Asians have bad personalities; judge agrees | the Aspen beat

Harvard says Asians have bad personalities; judge agrees | the Aspen beat
"...Harvard says it discriminates against people with bad personalities. 
After all, what good is knowledge, morality and dreams if you’re no fun?
To the fun-loving bureaucrats running Harvard, personality is measurable by your skin color and your sex life.
Image result for too many Asians at HarvardThey believe that good personalities are found in blacks, Hispanics, gays, transgenders, whites and just about everyone else, in roughly that order.
Except Asians. 
Harvard says Asians have bad personalities.
And so to be admitted, Asians need an SAT score about 140 points higher than whites and about 450 points higher than blacks.
You might reasonably ask: How did Harvard decide that Asians have bad personalities?
Plenty of objective personality tests are out there, but Harvard doesn’t use them. 
It instead uses a subjective evaluation of the applicant by one of those fun-loving bureaucrats.
At an in-person interview, the bureaucrat takes note of whether the applicant is Asian has a bad personality.
I suppose it’s a lucky thing for Harvard that Asians have bad personalities.
Because otherwise their high merit would get more of them admitted at the expense of lower-merit whites, blacks, Hispanics, gays and transgenders.
The result would be too many Asians at Harvard, according to social engineers with low SAT scores who are constructing our campus racial utopias because they couldn’t get through college calculus in order to be real engineers..."

Pam Bondi's breakdown of the corruption concerns surrounding Hunter Biden's business dealings in the Ukraine during the Senate impeachment trial were so effective, that even CNN chief legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin had to give her credit for it.
During the White House defense team's opening arguments Monday, the former Florida attorney general argued that questions about potential corruption surrounding the Bidens' dealings in the Ukraine while Joe Biden was vice president and Hunter Biden was employed as a board member at the Ukrainian natural gas company Burisma were indeed legitimate.

Watchdog: Illinois fiscal health 2nd worst in nation

See the source imageWatchdog: Illinois fiscal health 2nd worst in nation
  • Illinois politicians have too often ignored the necessity of true pension reform and instead opted for tax hikes.
A government accounting watchdog has slapped Illinois with an F grade in finances, ranking the state’s fiscal health second worst in the nation.
Truth in Accounting’s annual “Financial State of the States” report ranks Illinois 49th in the nation for fiscal health, earning the designation of “Sinkhole State.”
...Chicago ranked worst in the nation, with each Chicago taxpayer on the hook for nearly $120,000.
Unsurprisingly, pensions were also the biggest chunk of city taxpayers’ debt burden..."

The Trans Agenda Could Make You Choose Your Pronouns - Minding The Campus

"In early December, Merriam-Webster named “they” the 2019 Word of the Year.
...At my own university, one can choose to have their personal pronouns displayed in the public directory: choices include “they/them” and “ze/hir.”
For students, these selected pronouns also appear on class rosters.
Speakers at meetings and on panels often introduce themselves as “Jane Doe, she/her.”
...In short, in higher education, pronouns are everywhere.
Pronouns are, of course, just one part of the larger transgender movement, and that movement itself finds an accommodating home on college campuses.
...But within this larger movement, pronouns have come to represent more than just lexical items. Rather, they’ve transformed into ideological shorthand that signals to one’s audience support for transgender rights, that one is on the “right” side of history.
Their ubiquity renders them a powerful cudgel to beat down any dissenters. 
If stating one’s pronouns has become unquestioned dogma, then it follows the omission of these statements signals something too: perhaps a touch of heterodoxy, a public confession that one may not toe the acceptable party line..."
