[BREITBART] Student activists at the University of Notre Dame are calling for the removal of white authors from the university curriculum to "decolonize" the university. According to the students, "diversifying the canon helps eliminate the violence of only privileging white scholarship."
According to a report by The College Fix, a student activist group at the University of Notre Dame called "End Hate at ND" is demanding that the university drastically rewrite course curriculum because they believe it currently features too many works by white authors.
The student activist group published a list of demands to their Instagram page. The students demanded that the curriculum be revised so that the works of minority authors account for at least 50 percent of required readings.
Cultural competence is key in building empathy for marginalized folks. No course or program of study should have a view limited to white, western, and/or male voices. We demand that people who are of Color, Indigenous, Black, queer, or not male are represented in the authorship of at least half course and major required readings. Diversifying the canon helps eliminate the violence of only privileging white scholarship. Everyone should see themselves represented in coursework.

I'm starting to wonder what kind of education those "students" received prior to college.
#2
I'm pretty sure that the ancient Greek and Roman authors of many classic works would be baffled by the idea that they were "white." White people were the illiterate barbarians to the north who painted themselves blue.
So the whole Dead White Men meme doesn't work when it comes to authors like Cicero or Aristophanes. Dead? Absolutely. Male? Certainly. White? Not so much.

Up = Down
Night = Day
Overgrown children's hurt feelings/rage = evidence of "violence"
Actual violence against innocent citizens = "speech," "protest"

#2 exactly. Someone needs to tell these morons to go back and learn a bit about the history of the faith and the saints.
Augustine was African.
Paul was from Asia Minor, as was the dude whats-his-name from Galilee.

Universities charge the students money because they are going to prepare them for the future and caving into everything and giving them a substandard education isn't preparing them for anything.
#18
Profesor's high salaries are derived from income from students loans these low iq chillins will never be able to payoff but this will get them a few more class credits.

Isn't that good though ? That the vatican or its cousins employ and sequester away young gays and make them perform a kind of community service for life. They are kept out of politics and woke activism and let's say 2 in 10 maybe end up molesting children. Or is that more ?

Who says these 'protestor's are, in fact, students? How do we know they're not paid Soros drones?

Dron,
We have a lot of data now to indicate that ped0phi!ia is indeed extraordinarily prevalent in the Church-- orders of magnitude more so than in the general population.
The minimal estimates are 5-6% and probably about 10% based on the Church's own data and exhaustive analyses of same that have been done in the US and Australia.
in Australia 7% of priests have been accused of ped0phi!ia; the government estimated that not fewer than 4% are guilty of same.
In the US there were 4,352 documented cases between 1960 and 2002 per the John Jay Report. Today iirc there are about 40,000 active priests today, so we can estimate that perhaps 2x that number or ~80,000 priests were active in the period studied by the John Jay Report.
That would yield an estimate of close to 6% incidence of ped0phi!e priests.
And then we have very detailed, diocese-by-diocese data from data from the state of Pennsylvania. In 7 of 8 Pennsylvania dioceses (excluding the Archdiocese of Philadelphia with perhaps 1/4 of the state's total # of priests), the Church admitted to 311 individual cases of ped0phi!ia by priests over a 70-year period.
There are about 1,400 active priests currently in those 7 dioceses,so perhaps 2.5x or 3,500 priests total were active over this 70 year period in those dioceses. That would yield a rare of about 9% of PA priests were, by the Church's admission, ped0phi!es.
The actual number is of course higher but that 9% figure from PA suggests a good floor estimate.
Call them whatever polite term you wish: this organization is an international crime syndicate. It's no wonder that the left-leaning clergy at Notre Dame and elsewhere drape themselves in all manner of virtue-signaling rhetoric, "liberation theology" and other left-wing political nonsense.
It's a massive redirect from their gay mafia organization and its horrific crimes committed on a worldwide scale.
[WASHINGTONEXAMINER] The House impeachment proceedings against President Trump are soon heading back to the Judiciary Committee, where partisan bickering and theatrics during public hearings last summer prompted House Speaker Nancy San Fran Nan Pelosi Congresswoman-for-Life from the San Francisco Bay Area, born into a family of professional politicians. On-again-off-again Speaker of the House. It's not her fault when they lose, but it's her accomplishment when they win. Noted for her heavily botoxed grimace and occasional senior... uhhh... moments... to shift the investigation to the House Intelligence Committee.
The intelligence panel appears to have wrapped up a series of public hearings. No new hearings or depositions have been scheduled.
Under an Oct. 31 resolution passed by Democrats, the matter is supposed to fall back to the Judiciary Committee, which will hold its own hearings and draft articles of impeachment against Trump.
Judiciary Committee hearings, an aide told the Washington Examiner, "could begin in early December," when politicians return from the Thanksgiving recess.
The next step in the impeachment process will be to return the spotlight to Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerry Nadler, who had fallen out of favor with Pelosi after he conducted a series of raucous public hearings, including several he labeled "impeachment proceedings."

They know this is a huge backfire. Kick back to committee... vote there isn't enough evidence to impeach... vote to censure the president. Move on to 2020.
#5
If you think bug-eyed, if-Charles-Manson-had-a-son Adam Shiff made for bad television, wait until obese, greasy, 4'x4' Jerry Nadler takes over America's airwaves for 8 hours a day, every day.

#4 "infer" - what a complete and utter Shitshow.
This is spot-on: Well, there’s a slightly less than strong impeachment position: Impeachment by “inference”.. he says. Previously Mueller and Weissmann attempted to prosecute President Trump, the fictitious horse-thief, for attempting to obstruct his hanging; now Schiff is inferring guilt because President Trump didn’t present alibis for his whereabouts when the fictitious horse wasn’t stolen…. Yup, it’s looking like a fail.
[NYPOST] Adam Schiff ...Showboating U.S. Representative for California's 28th congressional district since 2013. A member of the Democratic Party, Schiff has served in Congress since 2001. He currently serves as the chairman of the United States House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence. In a manner reminiscent of Joe McCarthy, on March 22, 2017, in a interview with Chuck Todd on MSNBC Schiff claimed there was “more than circumstantial evidence now” that Donald Trump's campaign colluded with Russia." Todd followed up by asking if he had seen direct evidence of collusion and Schiff responded that there was "evidence that is not circumstantial and is very much worthy of investigation... and Nancy San Fran Nan Pelosi Congresswoman-for-Life from the San Francisco Bay Area, born into a family of professional politicians. On-again-off-again Speaker of the House. It's not her fault when they lose, but it's her accomplishment when they win. Noted for her heavily botoxed grimace and occasional senior... uhhh... moments... have managed to pull off a miracle with their impeachment gambit.
They’ve united Republicans around Donald Trump, a feat once thought impossible, and for which the president owes a great deal to Schiff’s dogged Republican counterpart Devin Nunes.
"There has never been so much unity and spirit in the Republican Party, as there is right now!" trumpeted Trump on Twitter Friday.
As support for the president edges up nationally and, notably, in the battleground state of Wisconsin, where 94 percent of Republicans oppose impeachment, he has been gifted a remarkable campaign advantage by his opponents.
He ran as an outsider in 2016, and now he gets to run again as an outsider, despite three years in the White House.
The Beltway Brahmin class of babus bureaucrats and resistance journalists have provided him a new campaign pitch: "New hoax. Same swamp."
After two weeks of public impeachment hearings, we are no closer to evidence that Trump committed an impeachable offense over Ukraine. Inappropriate, perhaps, but that’s his middle name.
The partisan audience ‐ and media ‐ sitting in the hearings each day, cheering along Schiff’s cunning narrative, has misled the Democrats into thinking it has popular backing.
Like the boy who cried wolf, if you spend long enough shrieking that Trump is the devil incarnate, eventually people switch off.
You only had to hear the laughter at the end of proceedings Thursday, when Schiff let down his guard and mocked Nunes, to recognize the anti-Trump mood infecting the public gallery in Room 1100.

"If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle." ― Sun Tzu, The Art of War
[Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News] Bloomberg Editor-in-Chief John Micklethwait announced new guidelines for campaign coverage in a note to staff on Sunday
The note came shortly after the former NYC mayor announced his candidacy
Micklethwait said that the organization will continue its tradition of not investigating Bloomberg, or his family and foundation
It will extend that policy to his rivals in the Democratic primary out of fairness
Investigative coverage of President Trump's administration will proceed as usual
That coverage will be reassessed should Bloomberg be chosen as the Democratic presidential candidate
Bloomberg Opinion will also no longer run unsigned editorials as they typically reflected views of the founder

...And Bloomberg Media head toward bankruptcy...
[JohnSolomonReports] As House Democrats mull whether to pursue impeachment articles and the GOP-led Senate braces for a possible trial, here are 12 tranches of government documents that could benefit the public if President Trump ordered them released, and the questions these memos might answer.
Each bullet item briefly discussed at link.
1) Daily intelligence reports from March through August 2019 on Ukraine’s new president Volodymyr Zelensky and his relationship with oligarchs and other key figures.
2) State Department memos detailing conversations between former U.S. Ambassador Marie Yovanovitch and former Ukrainian Prosecutor General Yuriy Lutsenko.
[BREITBART] Mayor Pete Buttigieg ...the testicleless mayor of South Bend, Indiana, since 2012. Buttigieg graduated from Harvard College and, on a Rhodes Scholarship, from Pembroke College, Oxford. From 2007 to 2010, he worked at McKinsey and Company, a consulting firm. From 2009 to 2017 Buttigieg served as an intelligence officer in the United States Navy Reserve, attaining the rank of lieutenant and deploying to Afghanistan in 2014. Buttigieg was first elected mayor of South Bend in 2011 and was reelected in 2015. During his second term, he announced he was gay. Buttigieg also campaigned for Indiana state treasurer in 2010 and for chair of the Democratic National Committee in 2017, losing both elections. He is running for the Dem nomination in 2020 on the theory that being mayor of a nondescript medium sized city is qualification to run the country... wants to raise taxes on the more wealthy Social Security earnings, as part of a plan to save it from bankruptcy, according to a plan released Monday.
Buttigieg announced individuals earning above $250,000 (Families earning over $500,000) would face higher Social Security taxes if he is elected president.
The mayor’s plan also suggested more wealthy seniors would also get "modest Social Security benefits" as a result of their additional taxes.
Those earning less than $250,000 would not be taxed extra.
Buttigeg made the announcement as his campaign released a lengthy policy plan on how to preserve Social Security in the future.
"Politicians in Washington have known this crisis was intensifying for years," the South Bend mayor wrote. "And for years, they have failed to address it. It is time for a new approach."

Of course Buttigieg would, he's very very experienced in screwing people in the butt!

Prior to the Clinton administration and legislation of 1993, there were no 'taxes' on Social Security. What you paid into the fund and never touched for 50-60 years was yours.
[THEGUARDIAN] The former Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party, congresswoman Katie Nice Boobies! Hill ...Dem representative from California who ran as a bisexual, resingned from Congress when nude pictures of her came to light, along with information that she was being bisexual with one of her aides. Katie appears to be unacquainted with the word shame... , who resigned in October after the publication of nude photographs and allegations of an affair with a member of her congressional staff, said on Sunday rightwing media outlets attacked women because "they’re easier targets" for bullying.
In an interview on CNN’s Reliable Sources, the Democrat said bullying affects women across the US, whether they are teen girls or power-players such as the former ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch and ex-national security council official Fiona Hill.
Yovanovitch and Hill, both naturalized US citizens, testified in the congressional impeachment inquiry against Donald Trump ...the Nailer of NAFTA... . As with other witnesses, Trump supporters in the media questioned their loyalty to the US.
"As a public figure," Katie Hill said, "you’re used to attacks, right? But when it gets to the level of these threats and feeling like you’re not seen as a person any more ... the dehumanization is something that I think people can’t really understand unless you have been there.
"And that’s exactly what the rightwing media does and that they’re doing to these witnesses. And look what they’re doing to Fiona Hill and what they did to Ambassador Yovanovitch.

rightwing media attack women because ‘they’re easier targets’
You ain't seen nothing yet dear. The push for "equality" filled all kind of positions from high school teachers to POTUS candidates with women who are NOT competent for the job.
[BREITBART] Freshman swing-district Democrat Rep. Cindy Axne (D-IA) said Saturday that she "did not run" to "impeach" President Donald Trump ...Oh, noze! Not him!... despite her backing of the impeachment inquiry.
Swing-district Democrat Rep. Axne traveled to Mount Ayr, Iowa, to meet with roughly twenty constituents to discuss the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) as well as her support for the impeachment inquiry against President Trump.
One Iowa constituent asked whether Rep. Axne had voted for impeachment in a recent vote to formalize the rules and procedures surrounding the impeachment inquiry. Rep. Axne was one of 230 Democrats that voted for that resolution that would advance the impeachment inquiry against President Trump.
Rep. Axne said, “No, no.”
One Iowa constituent asked whether Rep. Axne had voted for impeachment in a recent vote to formalize the rules and procedures surrounding the impeachment inquiry. Rep. Axne was one of 230 Democrats that voted for that resolution that would advance the impeachment inquiry against President Trump.
Rep. Axne said, "No, no." Then her lips fell off.
Another constituent asked the Democrat representative whether she backs the impeachment inquiry against President Trump.
Rep. Axne replied, "What I’m for is doing the hard work for the people of this district. I didn’t run for this seat to impeach the president. Go back and check my 18 months of running for this office; there is nothing in there about that."
Congresswoman Axne represents one of the 31 congressional districts that President Trump won during the 2016 presidential election and that Democrats flipped during the 2018 midterm elections.
Rep. Axne’s comments follow as a recent Emerson College poll found that only six percent of Iowa voters say that impeachment is the most important issue.
The freshman Democrat also explained that House Democrats "are very close to" passing the USMCA through Congress’ lower chamber.
"I’m out here working hard to make sure rural America has what it needs and that we are serving its farmers," she explained.
In October, Axne reiterated her supported for impeachment by suggesting that she swore an oath to protect the Constitution.
"First and foremost, as much as my job is dedicated to helping the people here in Iowa ‐ and that’s my priority ‐ I took an oath and swore that I would protect the Constitution," she said.

‘I Didn’t Run’ to ‘Impeach the President’
I run because my ego demanded recognition for my superior personal qualities?
[BREITBART] On Sunday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s "AM Joy," Rep. Mugshots/maxine-waters.jpg U.S. Representative for California's 43rd congressional district, serving since 1991, a total of 27.98503309636981 years. A member of the Democratic Party, she is the most senior of the 12 black women currently serving in the United States Congress, is a member and former chair of the Congressional Black Caucus. Before becoming a member of Congress she served in the California Assembly, to which she was first elected back when Disco was in flower, in 1976, which would make it 42.982979708279466 years. She has been a politician for virtually all her adult life. If she was brighter she'd be a Communist... Comrade Maxine Waters (D-CA) said former neurosurgeon Ben Carson ... a neurosurgeon who was under the delusion that being brilliant qualifies him to be president.... did not have the "intelligence" for his current position as Secretary of Housing and Urban Development.
Bless your heart, my dear, the man is literally a brain surgeon. The only field debatably smarter is rocket science. And you qualify for neither.
Carson had said Waters lacks basic manners after she had written President Donald Trump ...His ancestors didn't own any slaves... a letter demanding answers on reports that the administration was considering moving homeless people off the streets in Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party,Waters said, "I sent him a letter, and he sent me a letter claiming that I had no manners, etc. I basically said to my staff, I really don’t have time to be bonded by somebody who does not know the difference between REO and OEO. This guy just doesn’t have the background, the capability, the intelligence to do the job. He does not know what he’s doing. He doesn’t care about this issue."

[Jpost] Ilhan Omar was recruited by a foreign government, received funding from a foreign government, and passed sensitive information through intermediates to Iran, a Florida court has been told.
The claims came during testimony by Kuwati-born Canadian businessman Alan Bender, who was giving evidence in the trial of Sheikh Khalid bin Hamad al-Thani. The Qatari emir's brother stands accused of ordering his American bodyguard to murder two people, and of holding an American citizen hostage. His deposition, obtained by Al Arabiya English, was authenticated by the attorney for the plaintiffs, according to the publication.
Speaking from Toronto by video link, Bender told the Florida District Court that he met with Qatar’s Secretary to the Emir for Security Affairs Mohammad bin Ahmed bin Abdullah al-Masnad and two other senior Qatari officials.
According to his sworn deposition, the three officials told him: “If it wasn't for our cash, Ilhan Omar would be just another black Somali refugee in America collecting welfare and serving tables on weekends."
Not possible. The lady has a masters degree in... something. She’d be waiting tables at least five days a week.
Bender testified that the officials asked him to recruit American politicians and journalists as Qatari assets, and that when he objected, was told that several prominent figures were already on the payroll. US Congresswoman Omar was described as the "jewel in the crown," he said.
...in the turban, surely.
Qatar “recruited Ilhan Omar from even way before she thought about becoming a government official. […] They groomed her and arranged the foundation, the grounds, for her to get into politics way before she even showed interest. They convinced her,” he added.
The deposition shows he further told the court that, during a 2017 meeting with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, Omar swore allegiance to him.
Swore allegiance as what? Sultan of the caliphate? President of Turkey? Head of the Turkish branch of the Muslim Brotherhood?
At the time she was a junior state representative in Minnesota.
Omar was said to also have passed information to Qatar which was subsequently handed along to Iran, and was actively involved in recruiting other American politicians to likewise work for Qatar, Bender testified.
And what are their names, pray tell?
“The best thing money can buy are American officials because they are the cheapest of the cheapest costing officials in the world,” the Qatari officials were said to have told him.
In a statement, a spokesperson for Congresswoman Omar told The Jerusalem Post "Since the day she was elected, Saudi Arabian trolls and mouthpieces have targeted Rep. Omar with misinformation and conspiracy theories."
"The latest outlandishly absurd story from a Saudi-funded media outlet is of course false and only the latest in that trend," they said. "The only people Rep. Omar represents in Washington are the people of Minnesota’s 5th District. She will continue to speak out against human rights violations around the world—whether it is war crimes in Yemen or the caging of children at our border—regardless of who commits them."
Omar has already been found by the Minnesota Campaign Finance Board to have broken campaign finance rules, by improperly using campaign money for out-of-state travel while a state representative. Conservative group Judicial Watch has also called on the House Ethics Committee to investigate Omar for alleged offenses, including immigration fraud. But these claims go much further.
Omar was one of 107 House Democrats who co-signed a letter Thursday, calling on Secretary of State Mike Pompeo to reverse his announcement on the legality of West Bank settlements. The signatories claimed such a move "severely damaged prospects for peace" in the region.
“No,” quoth the honourable Secretary Pompeo. “Never more.”

The brilliance of jihad is that not all participants need to be sworn members of a circle, or report to some shadowy figure. All you have to do is work the host nation's legislature to its own detriment, destabilize their law, health, public admin, etc. any way you can. You report to Allan.
Between Tlaib and Omar, I've always suspected Omar of being a plant of some sort. If not a plant, a champion of the jihad. Tlaib you can say is batshit crazy, because she always was. There was nobody writing her script.
But this one. She rose from a gradually coordinated, concerted campaign of employed and even moneyed immigrants embedded within her district. The most refugees to successfully exodus from a war torn state with their money are often undocumented fighters or middle rung regime enforcers. I don't know what story her father gave the officials. Then her mother was from the coastal based Haji Husein clan with ties to militants and pirates. Young Ilhan insinuated her way into the democratic farmer labour groups, and kept her scams going with young Somalian men she kept smuggling into the US even with the WOT raging in Africa.
There was never a peep from the bitch whenever an act of atrocity was heard of from Al Shabab. It has always been 'America the devil, islamophopia, my people, my culture,
israel should die', ad nauseam. She's unapologetic, wears her islam proudly, even some somalis in her district fear her and she repeatedly makes statements that must inspire her kind across the oceans. They see her, and they think 'Not far now... the great satan is almost bridled'.
We've seen this pattern in Asia and Europe for decades now. They are a very private bunch, seemingly unconnected too, like a hive mind in their plodding approach. They chip away at the State, the constitution, populating a region with malcontents and muscle from across borders, and rise to offices on swollen constituencies by intimidating and guilt tripping people.
