Racist ‘Hispanics Only’ Program At USC and Loyola Marymount University Draws Civil Rights Complaint

“A Hispanics-only program hosted at the University of Southern California and Loyola Marymount University has drawn a federal civil rights complaint.”

According to a report from The College Fix, a complaint has been filed with the Education Department for Civil Rights after Los Angeles universities promoted a scholarship program exclusively for Hispanics.

The complaint against this program was naturally due to the fact that “it is expressly limited to students who identify as being of Hispanic heritage.”

It should go without saying that this violates civil rights laws. If there must be special civil rights laws, how would this not be a violation of them?

This program, by definition, would amount to segregation based on race, something which would never be tolerated if done for White students.

“USC and LMU participation in the YLI program violates Title VI by discriminating on the basis of national origin. Moreover, this participation violates California’s own discrimination statutes and the nondiscrimination policies,” states the complaint, lodged June 29.”

“William Jacobson, president of the Equal Protection Project, told the New York Post that it’s “open discrimination, they don’t try to hide it.”

New York Times Countersues Trump DOJ After EEOC Accuses Newspaper of Discriminating Against White Male Employee

The New York Times has filed a countersuit against the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) after the agency accused the newspaper of discriminating against a white male employee in a promotion decision.

The EEOC sued the Times in May, alleging the newspaper used Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) hiring practices that favored women and minority candidates in violation of federal civil rights law.

The agency is seeking to block the company from continuing these policies and is also seeking damages on the employee’s behalf.

According to the EEOC’s complaint, veteran editor Bryant Rousseau was denied a promotion to deputy real estate editor in favor of a multiracial woman who lacked his experience covering real estate.

The agency also alleges that none of the four finalists for the position were white men.

In a countersuit filed Friday in federal court in New York, the Times accused the EEOC of targeting the newspaper in retaliation for its reporting on the agency.

“The Commission markedly deviated from its ordinary practices in almost every respect to file the flimsiest of lawsuits against The Times, a frequent target of the administration, on the heels of investigative reporting that brought to light scathing bipartisan criticism of the EEOC, its leadership, and its priorities from both inside and outside the Commission,” the complaint states.

The View Descends into Chaos After Joy Behar Admits Democrats Must Run a White Man to Win

Friday’s episode of the liberal talk show The View descended into chaos when co-host Joy Behar argued that Democrats need to run a white man in 2028 to have any chance of winning back the White House, sparking an immediate pushback from Ana Navarro.

During the heated exchange, Behar insisted she was simply focused on “winning” in what she called an “emergency” situation under President Donald Trump.

There is something hilarious about women who spent years demonizing white men suddenly treating them as saviors and their only path to victory.

Behar began by floating a list of white male candidates she believes could actually win, naming Georgia Sen. Jon Ossoff, Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro, Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker, and former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg.

She framed the suggestion as cold political reality, telling her co-hosts they needed to face facts after watching the country for decades.

Behar stated, “Maybe I’m too old at this point for this conversation. But I’ve been watching this country for a long time. And you’ve got to be in reality. These past few years that President Donald Trump has been in office, he’s practically destroying democracy. This is an emergency we’re in.”

Navarro jumped in, saying, “I hate it when I hear you say that it’s gotta be like a white man, cause I then feel that it becomes like a self-fulfilling prophecy. And I don’t want.”

The Democrat Party’s History of Race-Based Policies: From Slavery to the KKK to DEI

On a daily basis, Democrats refer to Republicans as racists, Nazis, and fascists. Meanwhile, they push for DEI, affirmative action, and race-based admissions, hiring, and promotions, which are objectively racist policies.

Republicans are characterized as racists because they want all laws to apply equally to everyone, with no preference given to any race, while Democrats not only have a long history of race-based policies but were also the founders of the KKK. The Republican Party, meanwhile, was formed largely by abolitionists, specifically to stop the expansion of slavery.

Abraham Lincoln was the first Republican president, elected in 1860 as the candidate of a party founded in 1854 primarily in opposition to the extension of slavery into new territories. Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation in January 1863, presided over the Union victory in the Civil War, and was assassinated in April 1865, days after Lee’s surrender at Appomattox. Republican-controlled Congresses then passed the 13th Amendment abolishing slavery in 1865, the 14th Amendment establishing citizenship and equal protection in 1868, and the 15th Amendment guaranteeing voting rights regardless of race in 1870.

The Democratic Party went in the opposite direction by restricting voting rights and attempting to disenfranchise Black people. That campaign ran from the 1890s through the passage of the Voting Rights Act in 1965.

After the Populist Party was defeated in the 1890s, Democrats amended state constitutions to include poll taxes and other disfranchising measures. Because payment of the tax was required to vote, impoverished Black people, and often poor whites who could not afford it, were denied the right to vote.

Democratic-controlled state legislatures across the South also imposed literacy tests, grandfather clauses, and whites-only primaries between 1895 and 1910 to exclude Black voters while exempting whites.

One tactic that has entered the historical memory of this era, and was later mentioned by Barack Obama at Congressman John Lewis’s funeral, was the so-called jelly bean test. Registrars asked Black applicants to guess the number of jelly beans in a jar. Alabama voter Theresa Burroughs recounted being asked exactly this by the Hale County Board of Registrars in the late 1940s. According to NPR’s account, it was one of the tactics used to delay her voter registration by two years.

Outrage after woke NYC mayor publishes map of ethnic neighborhoods that ERASES iconic Little Italy and much-loved ‘Little Ireland’

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani has ignited a firestorm after releasing a map of immigrant enclaves that excluded the city’s Little Italy and historic Little Ireland neighborhoods.

The democratic socialist’s office unveiled a map identifying 30 immigrant enclaves across the Big Apple’s five boroughs, including Koreatown, Little Palestine in Brooklyn, Little Bangladesh in Queens and Little Africa in Staten Island. 

Little Italy, the iconic stretch around Mulberry Street and long considered one of Manhattan’s most recognizable neighborhoods, was missing from the design.

Furious replies followed, with one X comment reading: ‘This aggression will not stand, man. New York isn’t New York without the Italian heritage that brought it to life and BUILT IT.’

‘Pissing off the Italians in New York may just be the dumbest thing he’s done yet,’ another said.

A third critic wrote: ‘Has he not seen The Sopranos? What the hell is he thinking?’ 

Also absent was Little Ireland, the tiny Irish enclave spanning across Woodlawn and Yonkers, where Gaelic football jerseys are as much a part of daily life as Yankees caps.

‘The Irish also built it. Just saying. Mamdani is scum,’ one comment added.

The map, reportedly released in May and sourced from the New York City Mayor’s Office of Immigrant Affairs, pinpoints three dozen immigrant neighborhoods and the subway lines serving each one, according to JNS News.

A City Hall spokesman told the New York Post that it was designed to help tourists explore the Big Apple’s vibrant cultural communities, but acknowledged it was not a complete list of ‘all the rich diversity across the city.’ 

But the map was thrust back into the spotlight Wednesday after writer Avital Chizhik-Goldschmidt resurfaced it on X.

‘The Mayor’s Office made a map of NYC’s immigrant enclaves: Little Africa, Little Poland, Little Palestine,’ Chizhik-Goldschmidt wrote.

‘But they just couldn’t figure out how to represent 11 percent of the city,’ she added. ‘Couldn’t decipher where the Jews are from.’

‘Huge riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma.’

Italian-Americans slammed Mamdani for leaving out the city’s ‘original Little,’ where generations of Italian immigrants first put down roots in the late 19th century. 

At its peak, the community housed about 10,000 Italian immigrants escaping severe poverty, failed crops and natural disasters – the majority coming from Southern Italy and Sicily.

Jasmine Crockett on Talarico Win in Primary: ‘It Was Racist, It Was a Racist Race’

Radical leftist Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) said race played a major role in her Democrat primary loss to Texas Democrat Senate candidate James Talarico (D).

Crockett argued that racism, not politics, was the deciding factor in her Democrat primary loss to James Talarico.

“The reality is that there was a lot of races, not a lot, it was racist. It was a racist race. It is what it is, right? But we live in America as y’all are celebrating 250, okay? We know what this country is,” Crockett said.

Crockett rejected criticism that she should have spent more time campaigning alongside Talarico. Instead, she said her strategy was to help down-ballot candidates, pointing to five black men she endorsed in Texas runoff races who all advanced to the November election.

“The best thing that I can do for James Talarico isn’t me standing on a stage with him,” Crockett said. “It is the fact that I endorsed five candidates in the runoff who all happen to be black men in the state of Texas and every single one of them won.”

She pushed back on criticism that she should have campaigned more directly for Talarico, saying giving voters multiple candidates to support is a more effective strategy for boosting turnout.

“People keep trying to say, ‘Well, Jasmine has to go and hold his hand.’ No, I don’t,” she said. “If you can give people more than one thing to vote for, then you have a better chance of getting them out to the polls.”

Talarico defeated Crockett in Texas’s Democrat primary for the U.S. Senate in March, overcoming weeks of polling that had shown her with a sizable lead in the race to challenge Republican Sen. John Cornyn in November.

Crockett previously said she does not believe black voters have fully united behind Talarico’s Senate campaign and confirmed she will skip next week’s Texas Democrat Party convention.

She said she has not seen broad enthusiasm for Talarico or the rest of the party’s statewide candidates, adding that many voters remain unconvinced despite several months remaining before the November election.

“I’ve not heard a bunch of kumbaya,” Crockett said. “People don’t seem to be convinced at this point, but there’s a lot of time between now and November.”

Asked whether she plans to campaign for Talarico, Crockett explained that her focus is on down-ballot races rather than his Senate bid.

“I have no idea. I am more focused on down-ballot races in general,” she said.

Socialist Congressional Candidate Melat Kiros: We Can’t Tackle White Supremacy Without Reparations

America cannot tackle “white supremacy” without “reparations,” socialist congressional candidate Melat Kiros said during a recent discussion.

Kiros, who unseated 15-term Democrat Rep. Diana DeGette in Colorado’s First Congressional District primary, spoke with Walter Rhein and explained that she believes there is a racism that exists as a “product of growing up in a white supremacist society.”

“One of the things that brought me into starting my PhD program was finally coming to the realization that we were never really going to be able to tackle white supremacy in the way that we need to without reparations,” she said, asserting there is “no way to truly heal” and progress without that.

She said she researched wealth inequality data by race and found that “the gap between poor white people and rich white people and the gap between poor black people and rich black people is actually identical, and the gap between black people, white people in general, can actually be reasonably explained by the failure of the Reconstruction Era and our inability to actually repair the harm that was done.”

From there, she claimed, the “harms just continued to compound on one another, leading to a lot of the wealth inequality that we’re seeing today.”

Americans must understand “where” the harm is, she continued, and they must be able to “quantify racism.” She also believes there must be a new word for “white supremacy.”

“I almost think there needs to be a new word, because there’s racism that is coming from, you know, places of hatred and, you know, true bigotry, and then there’s racism that is just a product of growing up in a white supremacist society,” she said, declaring that America is “objectively a white supremacist society.”

“And I think there are a lot of people that engage in these kind of racist stereotypes without the intention of doing so, and so I think there has to be a little bit of separation in order for people to not be so afraid of being tacked on with this idea of racism, acknowledging that it exists within every single group,” she said, essentially calling on Americans to admit they are racist, even if they are not.

“You know, there’s anti-blackness within the black community as well, and you know, being able to understand all of these things, I think, is going to be the first step that’s necessary before we’re able to actually meaningfully fight for reparations, but I do not think we can’t get any kind of meaningful change without reparations,” she said, later emphasizing, “If we want to really address white supremacy in this country, we have to talk about reparations.”

Independence Day Rant: Toxic Queen Dodo Jasmine Crockett Lectures “America Owes Everything to Black Women”

Apparently, Toxic Queen Dodo Jasmine Crockett is desperately trying to stay relevant in Democrat circles after she lost to goofball Talerico in the Texas Senate primary.

That means this hateful idiot will not be back in DC next year after Texas Republicans altered the Congressional districts in the state. Certainly, MSNBC is saving a spot for this repulsive racist on their staff?

On America’s 250th Anniversary, Crockett lectured on the democratic contributions and inventions of black women. For that, Americans should honor specifically black women.

Via End Wokeness:

Jasmine Crockett: This Fourth of July, I say celebrate a Black woman that you know, because whether it’s an invention that she made or whether it’s the very democracy that still hangs by a thread right now, there is a Black woman to thank for her contributions.

When it comes to answering the question of what America owes Black women, the answer is everything. When we think about the sacrifices that Black women have made from the moment that we were stolen from our homelands and transported into this country.

“Being Black” – Obama Presidential Center Visitors Can’t Name One of Barack Obama’s Accomplishments

People visiting the Obama Presidential Center can’t even name one of Barack Obama’s accomplishments.

The $850 million eyesore that resembles a trashcan officially opened last Friday (Juneteenth).

Fox News interviewed visitors to Obama’s library and they can’t even name one thing Barack Obama accomplished in eight years as president.

“Name Obama’s greatest accomplishment,” Fox News said to a couple of visitors.

“I can’t remember! It was just a lot!” one supporter said.

“I can’t think! You caught me off guard!” another said.

“I’m gonna have to say just being there,” one woman said.

“Being black,” one person said. “Staying black,” another said.

James Talarico Says Black Churches Understand Jesus Better than White Churches

Texas Democrat U.S. Senate candidate James Talarico said many white churches do not reflect the Jesus described in the Gospels and argued that black churches have a “deeper and more accurate” understanding of what it means to follow Jesus.

Speaking on the September 2024 podcast titled “Holy Conversation: Faith and Politics,” Talarico said too many white churches focus on the afterlife instead of on “freeing the oppressed and healing the sick and feeding the hungry.”

“Too many white churches are focused on the afterlife and not really much on this life,” Talarico said. “In my opinion, a lot of white churches don’t resemble the Jesus we meet in the Gospels of being out in the world, of freeing the oppressed and healing the sick and feeding the hungry.”

Talarico also praised black churches, saying they have a better understanding of what it means to follow Jesus than many white churches.

“And in the black churches that I’ve been in, they, I think because of their position in this country historically and currently, have a much deeper and more accurate understanding of what it means to follow Jesus in the 21st century,” Talarico continued. “So I’m glad that we are learning from black churches. I know my church has up in North Austin, and it sounds like this church is.”

Talarico has criticized Christianity. Earlier this year, the Texas state representative and Presbyterian seminarian told The New Yorker that Christianity is the “most violent” religion and has caused “damage” to Islam.

He has opposed President Donald Trump’s immigration restrictions on people from terrorism-prone countries and expressed support for Muslim communities. During remarks to the Pakistani American Council of Texas, Talarico condemned Trump’s restrictions on travel from countries identified as hotspots for radical Islamic terrorism, calling the president “a threat to all of us” and saying he stood with his “Muslim brothers and sisters.”
