America’s Top Law Schools Have Become Reeducation Camps of The Progressive Left
- Law school courses now commonly reject American norms such as free speech, fact-based decision-making, individualism, and Anglo-American legal principles that created the most benign and beneficial form of government in human history.
- UPenn Law’s purpose these days, it seems, is indoctrinating students into rejecting the American system of jurisprudence as racist, homophobic, gender-biased, and oppressive. Just pick-your-favorite-adjective of wokeism and cancel culture.
- The bottom line, as with the other schools we have examined (Yale, Stanford, Chicago, Columbia, and Harvard), is that if you want to hire an unbiased, well-trained, ethical, and professional lawyer who actually understands the law, you might want to choose someone other than a graduate from the law school at the University of Pennsylvania.

GOP Reps Condemn ‘Abhorrent’ SPLC Attack on Concerned Parents in House Resolution
- Republicans in the House of Representatives have filed a resolution defending parental rights groups such as Moms for Liberty after a leftist group branded them “extremist” and put them on a “hate map” alongside Ku Klux Klan chapters.
- The resolution, which Rep. Lisa McClain, R-Mich., filed Thursday, declares that “it is not extreme or hateful to believe that parents, not the government, should have the final say in their children’s education.” The resolution comes a week after the Southern Poverty Law Center added Moms for Liberty, Parents Defending Education, Army of Parents, No Left Turn in Education, and others to its “hate map.”
- The resolution aims to push back “against the labeling of attempts by parents to ensure school curriculum and sports are age- and sex-appropriate as extreme.”
