The Great America Show - DEI HAS DIED IN AMERICA

00:00:00.000 hello everybody and welcome to the great america show it's great to have you with us thanks so

00:00:06.420 much for joining us today happy friday folks hope you all had a great weekend looking forward to

00:00:10.740 the weekend as much as i am well the deportation rates continued today and last night and the day

00:00:16.580 before that and every day since president trump took office on january 20th president trump making

00:00:21.920 it clear he's not playing any games with these criminal cartels he's not playing any games with

00:00:25.480 these criminal illegal aliens we're in this country illegally they committed crimes and it's 1.00

00:00:30.300 time to be deported as i said in yesterday's episode we are a nation of law order and borders

00:00:37.140 it doesn't get much simpler than that president trump's first administration back in 2016 to 2020

00:00:42.960 he floated the idea or was reported at least that he had floated the idea of maybe bombing some drug

00:00:47.920 facilities drug facilities that are producing fentanyl and cocaine and marijuana in mexico this

00:00:53.660 is how the cartels make their money and they peddle it through the border with nobody stopping them

00:00:57.920 at least that was the last four years there's a new sheriff in town in case you haven't figured it

00:01:03.160 out or the marxist dems haven't figured it out and that's president trump and his administration

00:01:07.460 secretary of defense pete hegseth was on with fox and friends this morning and was asked

00:01:12.760 about the prospect of blowing up these drug facilities if we can find them if we know where

00:01:18.120 they are maybe we already know where they are take a listen to secretary of defense hegseth

00:01:21.940 the drug cartels have been declared terrorist organizations and if you find that and we know

00:01:27.420 if there's al-qaeda we're gonna hit them i don't care if you're in somalia sudan or in syria if we

00:01:34.220 find that they continue to fire at our border control and they continue to put fentanyl into our country

00:01:39.100 as the secretary of defense are you permitted now to go after them in mexico or wherever they are

00:01:45.200 brian um i don't want to get ahead of the president and i won't that's ultimately going

00:01:51.800 to be his decision but let me be clear all options will be on the table uh if we're dealing with what

00:01:58.140 are designated to be foreign terrorist organizations who are specifically targeting americans on our

00:02:04.780 border and we're finally securing our border we've been securing other people's border for a very long

00:02:10.640 time the military is orienting shifting toward an understanding of homeland defense on our sovereign

00:02:16.400 territorial border that is something we will do and do robustly isn't that nice folks we have an

00:02:22.160 administration that has the americans interest in its best interest it's been four long years we've

00:02:28.700 all dealt with it we all know somebody or know somebody who knows somebody who's dealt with a drug

00:02:33.840 overdose we've all witnessed it in our streets if you live in a deep blue city if you're fortunate enough

00:02:38.640 to live in the streets of uh somewhere in florida or one of these deep red states you probably haven't

00:02:43.660 had to deal with it as much as us who live in new york uh or in chicago or in la uh but nonetheless

00:02:49.680 the trump administration seems to be getting it all under control they're just 11 days in

00:02:55.000 we've heard from pete hegseth multiple times we've heard from other members of the cabinet and the

00:02:59.700 administration who have been confirmed multiple times we've heard from president trump multiple times in

00:03:04.560 just 11 days um something tells me in the first six months of his administration we're going to hear

00:03:09.200 from president trump more than we heard from joe biden in all four years not saying much but uh

00:03:15.140 president trump is a workhorse who all he wants to do is make america great again the marxist dams are 0.71

00:03:20.900 doing all they can to stop him hakeem jeffries today in a press conference said he's ready to fight

00:03:26.240 president trump and fight the administration and take it to the streets take a listen to hakeem jeffries

00:03:31.000 we are going to fight it legislatively we are going to fight it in the courts

00:03:37.540 and we're going to fight it in the streets what do you mean by that hakeem jeffries are you

00:03:44.300 threatening to cause some sort of insurrection in america do you not know what happened on january 6th

00:03:49.900 when those patriotic american terrorists decided to cause an insurrection on our streets were you not

00:03:56.960 around for that hmm i'd love to know what hakeem jeffries meant by that by saying taking it to the

00:04:02.720 streets uh maybe he'll clarify in the days ahead what he meant by that but to me it sounds like

00:04:07.540 violence he's inciting some sort of violence um but this could be why the democratic party things like

00:04:13.900 that is in such a shambles it's in the gutter nuke polling from quinnipiac who by the way tends to be

00:04:21.160 one of the more left-leaning pollsters has the pro-child mutilation party upside down by 26 points

00:04:27.240 57 unfavorable for the marxist ends to 31 favorable they're continuing on with their same messaging they

00:04:34.840 ran for in 2024 it's the same messaging that got them killed in this election absolutely murdered

00:04:40.320 gave control to the senate to the republicans gave control to the house to the republicans

00:04:44.160 and ultimately gave them the presidency back to donald trump where he's rightfully sitting right now

00:04:49.640 um i'm not sure what hakeem jeffries meant by that i'm not sure what the marxist ends party is

00:04:55.140 going to do going forward uh they're set to elect a new dnc chair over this weekend uh so we'll see

00:05:00.320 the the route they want to take um and the violence that they want to choose uh tonight at midnight

00:05:06.220 tariffs go into effect on canada and mexico these are the tariffs that president trump promised to put on

00:05:11.660 them if they didn't get their borders under control and yes canada too we have illegal immigration

00:05:16.480 flowing through our northern border uh white house press secretary caroline levitt said it's

00:05:20.980 going to start with 25 percent tariffs it'll be placed on goods from both mexico and canada

00:05:25.780 chinese imports will be 10 on duties china of course the mass producer of fentanyl in this country 0.96

00:05:33.340 i think 10 is is just a tiny bit too little for them um i would like to see upwards of 50 on them to

00:05:41.160 really make it make it hit them where it hurts because they've done far too much damage this country

00:05:45.300 to get away with it uh it would be a travesty for the american people as i said anyone who's known

00:05:50.780 somebody who's died of a drug overdose um who gets to witness it walking on their streets that's all

00:05:56.100 from china with the help of mexico so hopefully those tariffs uh get to work and get these people

00:06:02.600 under control and get the stifle this drug import into america our guest today is professor william

00:06:08.320 jacobson folks he's a cornell university law professor and he's also the founder of the

00:06:12.360 equal protection project he joins us now professor jacobson it's great to have you with us here on

00:06:17.440 the great america show and as i told you before you're one of lou's favorite guests you were such

00:06:21.520 a brilliant mind so we couldn't think of a better guest to have on today uh to talk about all that's

00:06:26.020 going on i want to play for the audience a quick clip back from 2023 ted cruz this is talking to the

00:06:32.140 faa administrator who was brought forward by the biden administration let's play this for the

00:06:36.960 audience and then we'll discuss it you ever flown a plane thank you for the question senator no i have

00:06:43.140 never flown a plane so you weren't a military pilot or a commercial airline pilot no senator uh have you

00:06:49.400 ever worked for an airline no senator uh have you ever worked as an air traffic controller no senator

00:06:56.180 have you ever worked for a company that manufactures airplanes no senator have you ever worked for a

00:07:01.500 company that fixes airplanes no senator faa administrator is a specialized position i'm not

00:07:14.060 qualified to be faa administrator i have no idea how to fly a plane no one in their right mind would put

00:07:18.500 me in charge of aviation safety because i don't have that experience i suspect most of the members of

00:07:23.440 this committee are in a similar position the american people when they think about aviation safety when

00:07:30.320 they think about i played in this committee a southwest airlines and fedex uh plane almost colliding in

00:07:36.940 at austin's airport they want an faa administrator who knows why those planes crash and knows how to fix it

00:07:45.080 to keep them safe and with all respect mr washington it gives no comfort to the flying public that their pilot

00:07:54.440 might be a transgendered witch but doesn't actually know how to prevent the plane from crashing into 1.00

00:08:01.060 the ground and killing them i believe your record is woefully lacking and in fact you have zero aviation

00:08:09.740 safety experience professor i this was back in 2023 of course before the tragedy we saw that happen on

00:08:17.820 wednesday night my background is in aviation i know what it's like i went to school for to be a pilot i am

00:08:23.500 a pilot i know what it's like to go through training and i know what it's like for air traffic controllers

00:08:28.360 to go to training how do we find ourself in this situation where we now have the deadliest plane crash

00:08:34.400 in 15 years well i think we have to be very careful um the dei the quotas things like it is an

00:08:44.160 extremely serious issue particularly when you get into technical areas like aviation safety i mean

00:08:51.560 it is a threat whether it caused this accident will depend on what we find out more about who is in

00:08:59.860 charge who is not in charge what went wrong so the video clip you just played is actually kind of

00:09:06.680 shocking and frightening um that you know why was this person even nominated for that position it's

00:09:14.260 really hard to understand i would not accept a nomination to be faa administrator i have no clue

00:09:22.860 what i would be doing and it doesn't appear does not appear that the person in that clip who's being

00:09:28.360 questioned by ted group has any idea what to do either it's just not the sort of thing you can learn on the

00:09:35.720 fly it's like okay i'm going to appoint you um you know general manager of this nuclear you know uh

00:09:42.820 energy plant it's like why would you do that and i think that's the question we ask with a lot of

00:09:48.280 these things why are you even doing this and i think that's you know one of the questions ted

00:09:52.660 cruz got to like why are we even here so uh i i don't want to jump to conclusions that that caused

00:09:59.320 this crash but if it even if it didn't it's a problem that we need to address you know

00:10:05.520 i i agree with you wholeheartedly on that uh president trump came out and mentioned it he

00:10:10.020 obviously had some sort of information as to you know what was going on before the general public

00:10:15.160 did the thing i do find abhorrent about this whole situation is we're now going on two days professor

00:10:20.180 we still have bodies that are in the water this is america we have the greatest infrastructure in the

00:10:25.020 wall in the world we still have bodies that are floating in the water that they can't get out yet

00:10:29.280 um we have the names of the two pilots released but we don't have the name of uh the female who

00:10:34.920 was apparently flying the plane at the time this is a government that i expect to be transparent in

00:10:40.520 in all uh and everything back last year uh as i mentioned i went to an aeronautical school and

00:10:47.200 while i was in school it was during the obama times and partway through my schooling i had a lot

00:10:52.080 of friends who were in school to be air traffic controllers obama got rid of the mandate that you had

00:10:56.460 to go to college and you had to be a professional to become an air traffic controller and i had friends

00:10:59.860 who had just spent hundreds of thousand dollars on school they now are told they don't need it and

00:11:04.180 you're going to be hired based on dei well lo and behold just a few years later the faa's diversity

00:11:10.580 hiring practices are under scrutiny uh for exactly that hiring uh there's a thousand people in this

00:11:17.460 class action lawsuit hiring based on color hiring based on race hiring based on gender how did we get to

00:11:23.840 this point in in this country a question i often ask on this show and maybe you can answer this

00:11:30.280 because you're a brilliant scholar mind why are we still asking on job applications what your

00:11:36.360 ethnicity is and what your gender is and whether you're gay straight heterosexual bisexual what does

00:11:43.460 that have to do with anything well it doesn't and i you know it gets it's grad there's a saying that

00:11:52.360 you know collapse comes gradually then suddenly okay and we've been gradually moving towards a

00:12:00.700 collapse of our institutions which have been completely captured by group identity politics and you can

00:12:08.440 call it diversity equity and inclusion you can call it anti-racism you can call it critical race theory

00:12:13.860 it's all of those things but it's an identity politics who you are and whether you get hired depends on

00:12:21.020 what group you are serving as a proxy for so we no longer hire the individual because of the

00:12:28.100 individual we take into account what group are you part of and so how did it get to this point it got to

00:12:34.720 the point over the course of a decade or more how did it specifically get to this point in 2021 joe biden

00:12:42.420 issued an executive order now rescinded by donald trump which forced the federal government to engage in

00:12:49.540 what it called racial equity throughout everything it does so this was a man-made disaster okay it 0.63

00:12:56.780 didn't need to be this way and he doubled down on it in 2023 with a second executive order which is

00:13:03.060 also now rescinded so what's happened at the faa didn't start with biden as you indicate it goes back

00:13:10.440 to the obama years but it the acceleration of the collapse has taken place because the federal government

00:13:18.180 both in terms of hiring contracting grant making almost every aspect of it has been captured by

00:13:27.540 a group identity ideology which again could be described in many different ways with many

00:13:33.420 different acronyms but it elevates identity over quality and merit and the person who's hired may

00:13:41.640 have quality and merit but that's not why they're hired right okay they're hired because of skin color 0.99

00:13:46.160 or gender identity or something else and so we're now seeing the sudden part of the collapse that has been

00:13:53.100 coming doesn't this professor go against every fabric that americans believe in right now that this

00:13:58.540 country was built on that we're all the same inside uh that it doesn't matter what color your skin is we're

00:14:04.200 all the same on the inside we all live for the same thing uh god family and country at least that's what i like

00:14:09.940 to think doesn't this go against every fabric in our in our body uh it certainly does i mean a lot of

00:14:17.220 people say well we're a country that was founded when there was slavery okay but that was how long

00:14:23.020 ago was that okay at least since the mid-50s to mid-60s the civil rights laws have been passed the ideology

00:14:31.000 of the country unabashedly is against discrimination against racial discrimination the 14th amendment equal

00:14:38.740 protection clause applies as well as the fifth amendment um applies uh equal protection that's

00:14:45.300 been read into it uh so at least for 70 years or 60 to 70 years the ethos of this country has not been

00:14:55.000 to pick people based on the color of their skin just the opposite so you know if you went back to the

00:15:00.580 1930s and 40s maybe you could make an argument that that wasn't our ethos as a country even despite

00:15:06.300 the constitution but you can't make that anymore it's been 60 70 years we shouldn't be doing this

00:15:11.700 right now we shouldn't be engaging it what amounts to racial retribution and that's really what it is

00:15:17.880 that's going on uh they call it anti-racism they call it a lot of different things but it's holding

00:15:23.280 some applicant for an air traffic controller job uh you know not giving that person that job because of

00:15:30.100 what somebody with a similar skin color did 80 years ago how ridiculous is that we need to move 0.99

00:15:36.560 beyond this and you know what professor that african-american that hispanic-american that

00:15:41.920 that asian-american whatever the ethnicity may be it's a slight to them because they fought to where

00:15:49.600 they get to get to where they are today to the job that they want based on their grades i can guarantee

00:15:55.260 you nine and a half out of ten of those folks who've gotten a job of a certain race are offended

00:16:01.000 by this because it's not right it should be based on your your merit and it probably sticks in the back

00:16:06.900 of their head was i hired because i'm a different race am i hired to make a quota or was i hired because

00:16:13.220 i was actually the best candidate for this position going back to the job applications of asking

00:16:19.700 you know if you're male female your race ethnicity is there any legal remedy that this country can go

00:16:26.820 through federal government state and local governments to get that off of a job application

00:16:31.420 to get that off of a college application so that you don't even see a name yeah well it depends some

00:16:38.620 of that data is required to be collected for statistical purposes and so the person doing the hiring really

00:16:44.940 doesn't need to see that data but it's data the government wants to collect for whatever its reasons

00:16:50.080 but you know in the federal government now that's banned those practices are banned since donald trump's

00:16:55.740 executive orders and remember the federal government has a massive reach it's not just who gets hired by

00:17:02.860 them it's who they contract with and these racial um mandates were imposed on on private businesses

00:17:09.820 that wanted to do business so um i think it's changing i really do think that it's changing

00:17:14.760 your mouth to god's ears i want to take a quick break here when we return president trump

00:17:19.220 one of his executive orders went into effect at 5 p.m today to remove all pronouns from employee

00:17:30.980 opening an investigation into schools alleged discrimination of white students go figure

00:17:36.120 we're coming right back with professor william jacobson the brilliant law mind cornell university

00:18:44.340 folks we're back with professor william jacobson of cornell university

00:18:49.780 i want to turn to something it was just it seems so common to me of why it shouldn't have been in

00:18:56.120 place in the first place uh president trump at 5 p.m today one of his executive orders went into to

00:19:01.220 effect to remove for federal workers to remove the pronouns from their employee signatures okay uh

00:19:07.660 it's mind-blowing to me that this was there in the first place that you had to have an employee

00:19:12.960 signature and i have family members who work for uh large corporations and they were pretty much told

00:19:19.340 by their managers in their linkedin profiles you need to have your signature in there otherwise it's

00:19:24.120 frowned upon have we gotten so stupid as a society uh professor that we need to tell people i'm he him 0.87

00:19:32.400 i'm he she i'm she her i'm they them what does it come to well this is how you know kind of leftist

00:19:42.900 ideology gets to dominate they force you to use their terminology they force you to take little

00:19:49.400 steps that you don't want to take and then later more little steps and then more little steps so

00:19:55.960 you know the whole pronoun thing is you know uh one of those little steps if they can get you to

00:20:03.600 acknowledge the pronoun thing that means you're acknowledging a larger gender ideology and you're

00:20:10.600 accepting it and maybe you want to maybe you don't want to but the the use of those pronouns is

00:20:16.300 a combination of forcing people to adopt ideologies they may not agree with and also um really virtue

00:20:24.700 signaling in many ways it's i'm going to show everybody that i am holier than everybody else

00:20:29.760 because i'm going to use pronouns okay and if you don't describe them by their pronouns you're in big

00:20:35.280 trouble in most corporations the federal government i just want to read some some briefs from this

00:20:40.200 executive order because president trump is by no means a doctor and the most surprising part to me

00:20:45.060 professor is that doctors who perform these surgeries i always tell people on this show and

00:20:50.280 it may be offensive and i don't care there's no such thing as transgender you cannot change your 1.00

00:20:55.160 gender your biological makeup is what it was at birth you can't change that so i just want to read

00:21:00.260 uh this executive order from president trump quote it's the policy of the united states to recognize

00:21:04.480 two sexes male and female these sexes are not changeable and are grounded in fundamental

00:21:09.080 and incontroversial reality under my direction the executive branch will enforce all sex protective laws

00:21:14.360 to promote this reality and the following definition shall shall govern all executive

00:21:19.040 interpretations of application of federal law and administration policy i will just go through a

00:21:23.940 few of them sex sex shall refer to an individual's biological classification as either male or female

00:21:30.460 sex is not a synonym for and does not include the concept of gender identity if you are a woman

00:21:36.900 uh if you are a male male males shall be described as a boy shall also be an adult juvenile human males

00:21:44.620 respectively females means a person belonged to at conception to the sex that produces the large 0.84

00:21:50.360 reproductive cells why did it take president trump to come in professor for something so common sense

00:21:56.760 to be put into law this shouldn't even be something that we should be wasting our time on

00:22:02.120 as a government we have so many problems with this country right now you have a border that's out of

00:22:07.140 control you have china producing fentanyl shipping into this country wiping out people you had 0.94

00:22:11.760 the coronavirus i mean there are so many things that are wrong with this country right now

00:22:15.700 yet president trump is stuck here wasting time on stupidity yeah i mean this is part of the ideology

00:22:22.880 that's taken hold in the the forced use of pronouns the use of pronouns in a signature all those sort of

00:22:29.340 things and it got to crisis levels mostly because of what's happening with girls sports i mean i'm so

00:22:36.620 old i remember when girls having their own sports opportunities was a feminist issue right i mean title 1.00

00:22:43.160 nine was a feminist issue it's how girls advanced everybody recognized that well one particular girl may 1.00

00:22:50.640 be better than one particular boy as a group men are stronger physically stronger men are physically

00:22:56.860 faster um but this gender ideology has so twisted things that we've lost that distinction so now you 1.00

00:23:03.980 have biological males who are also called males in girls sports and if it is well it's only you know one

00:23:11.000 out of a thousand but there are only three spots on the podium okay you don't need a thousand people

00:23:16.380 and we've seen many examples in connecticut and elsewhere of you know boys competing in girls sports and

00:23:24.060 taking one of those three spots at the top that means you don't get a scholarship that means you

00:23:28.760 don't get money for college uh and then you have the whole issue of women's prisons that i mean what 1.00

00:23:34.360 is what really horrible stories horrible you know gut-wrenching stories of women being put in prisons

00:23:40.840 with men who identify as women and nobody's willing to stand up to it and say wait a second what about 0.80

00:23:47.120 the safety of women what about the women's private spaces was a feminist issue how is it that men 1.00

00:23:53.900 are in women's locker rooms these are all serious issues and it's unfortunate it took at least for the 1.00

00:24:00.980 federal government for donald trump to have to issue an executive order that 10 years ago people would have

00:24:08.100 laughed about this situation but it's a very situation women are entitled to their own rights we've recognized 1.00

00:24:14.340 that for a long time they're entitled to their spaces and let's face it this is really about women 1.00

00:24:19.480 protecting women the men don't really care you know about this so much but a woman should not have to 0.88

00:24:26.340 wonder who's in her locker room or who's in her bathroom uh you know and so it's common sense what he

00:24:32.360 did it makes logical sense but we never should have gotten to this point because people went too far

00:24:38.080 right and if you're if you look to the adverse as you and i both agree on this you're a sexist and 0.85

00:24:44.120 you're a misogynist and you're canceled because you're insensitive to these people who decided they

00:24:48.780 wanted to try to change their gender you can't as i said i'm not a doctor i'm just a common sense kind of

00:24:54.120 guy as most smart people are and uh it's just crazy that it's gone this far that once again the federal

00:25:01.380 government had to step in to stop but it didn't stop there professor it went further than that you have

00:25:06.800 kids now in classrooms in new jersey who think that they're dogs they're called furries you send your

00:25:13.040 kid to school and they're pretending to be animals this falls on the parents and the way that they're

00:25:18.540 raising the kids i don't think that the kids are being raised the way they were when you were a child

00:25:23.880 even when i was a child growing up in the late 90s or early 2000s we learned respect we learned uh you

00:25:30.520 know that you respect elders you respect your women and uh and you lived your life like a like a

00:25:35.720 gentleman or like a woman but now you've got all types of crazies uh kids wanted to be furries uh

00:25:42.880 men wanted to play in women's sports and it's gotten so bad that we've had to take it up now to

00:25:48.600 the supreme court to high courts why can't these schools just say listen this is it you're a man

00:25:54.020 you're playing in a man's sport you're a woman you're playing in a woman's sport and why can't these 0.80

00:25:57.780 schools just say you are what you are when you were born on your birth certificate yeah i mean i i don't

00:26:04.460 know i've heard the story about the furries i don't know if that's true or not it's true but it

00:26:10.220 wouldn't be shocking if it was true true okay um you know but that's not the problem the problem is

00:26:17.380 not children growing up to think they're animals it's children being told from the moment they enter

00:26:23.520 the school system that they don't really know what they are they're not a boy or a girl they're

00:26:27.940 whatever they want to be uh and it's age inappropriate you know and that's really what

00:26:32.840 went on in florida with the you know falsely labeled don't get say gay law which had nothing

00:26:39.320 to do with saying gay okay that's how they frame things it simply restricted what sort of sexual

00:26:45.680 material could be provided to children through the third grade okay you know kindergartners and you

00:26:53.640 know there's something very troubling about what seems to be an organized uh you know effort to cast

00:27:00.140 doubt in young children's minds okay and uh it's it's very sickening in many ways that that sort of

00:27:08.000 proselytizing process that seems to be going on leave the kindergartner alone please okay and what

00:27:14.960 about the parents rights why can't the parents there's litigation ongoing now about whether parents can

00:27:20.940 opt their kids out of certain things and what is it's a it's a left-wing totalitarian um you know

00:27:27.520 attitude that they must control everything including your kids you know it's very soviet like i studied

00:27:33.360 in the soviet union during part of college that you know the kids belong to the state they don't belong

00:27:39.340 to the parents and that's where we're heading in this country and it's very dangerous the attempt to

00:27:45.000 you know extricate parents from school systems the attempt to by the justice department to

00:27:49.960 prosecute you know moms and dads who maybe spoke a little too loud at the school board meeting

00:27:55.120 okay this is all a process of you know taking parents out of the equation and so how did we get

00:28:02.320 to this point we got to this point the same way we got to everything else the institutions have been

00:28:07.540 captured by the ideologues and who are advancing theories that just 10 years ago would have gotten them

00:28:15.460 laughed out of the room and now if you don't agree with it you get fired right the thing that's so

00:28:21.480 perplexing to me is that you know used to be back in the day that every kid got a a beating from their

00:28:26.740 parents you did something wrong you got a smack you got a you know whatever now you do that you go to

00:28:33.280 jail all right if you do that you're going to jail but you could mutilate your child five years old four

00:28:40.460 years old whatever you want i see these videos on instagram all the time a parent dressing their son

00:28:45.000 up as a girl singing taylor swift uh that's completely fine you could send your kid to the

00:28:50.500 you know transgender surgeries you're fine but if you you smack your kid on the rear end for doing 0.97

00:28:56.280 something wrong to teach him a lesson you're going to jail uh we've gotten so asked backwards in this

00:29:01.700 country i really just don't know how we could ever revert and come back to reality are you confident we can

00:29:08.000 i i don't know you know my attitude is um two things are not mutually exclusive um whether you're

00:29:15.280 in favor of corporal punishment or not i i would kind of you don't have to hit your kid but you also

00:29:20.140 don't have to put them through transgender surgery okay how about we do neither okay uh and i think 0.77

00:29:26.040 that's a problem i mean it's really these surgeries are horrendous they're grotesque they're offensive

00:29:33.860 uh i we're already starting the process but we're going to look back upon these three to four years

00:29:41.080 and wonder how we let this happen to children my board it's grotesque enough when it happens when

00:29:47.200 you're an adult but at least adults get to choose things but you know 11 12 14 15 year olds um there's a

00:29:55.480 reason we don't let them drive and we don't let them vote okay because they don't have the mental 0.93

00:30:00.920 mental maturity and i mean that in the brain process way to make those sort of life-altering

00:30:06.860 decisions and uh and the medical industry has been captured the medical associations have been

00:30:13.520 captured it's really horrible the stuff that's gone on in the medical industry is i keep using the word

00:30:19.980 grotesque but that's what it is when you read about these surgeries who thought this up i mean how could

00:30:25.560 you possibly do that it used to be very exceptional cases um in sweden you could get those surgeries and

00:30:31.940 so on but truly exceptional cases um now you have entire hospitals putting out videos about their

00:30:39.260 gender-affirming care which is just a euphemism for life-altering changes to a child either

00:30:45.200 pharmaceutically or uh surgically and it shouldn't have been allowed it shouldn't be allowed i mean

00:30:50.680 you know just because you've got an md doesn't allow you to do anything you want to a child

00:30:56.460 and i hope there are prosecutions down the road there was a doctor i think he was in dallas texas

00:31:01.480 uh maybe last year or so uh who spoke out against these these gender-affirming surgeries and the doj of

00:31:08.360 course came back they came after him now i hope president trump and his administration looks into that

00:31:12.860 and and writes the wrong but how can you be a doctor i mean doctors and lawyers are among this depending

00:31:18.260 on the lawyer your select few are some of the smartest minds in this country right they're the

00:31:22.400 the people who make the laws are the the people who built this country and determine what's right

00:31:27.360 what's wrong and doctors are the ones who save lives it's troubling for me professor to see a doctor

00:31:32.480 a man who went through years of of medical school a man who knows human anatomy to sit there and think

00:31:40.240 it's okay to sit there and perform a surgery as you said that's irreversible five-year-old six-year-old

00:31:46.040 kids once you go gender mutilation there's no going back i mean that's it and you look at the

00:31:51.860 stories now of kids who are coming out 10 years later five years later saying i ruined my life

00:31:57.180 there's no going back i lost the five years of my life i mutilated myself i removed my breasts to do 0.56

00:32:02.740 this and it's over i mean your life is ruined you look at elon musk smartest man in the world he lost

00:32:08.780 his child to the same thing and it's you know it's not uh a a socio issue where the poor people do it

00:32:15.560 the rich people do it elon musk the richest man in the world the smartest man in the world and he lost

00:32:19.300 his child yeah i mean i think it's a social contagion in many ways it's become the cool thing to do

00:32:26.940 there have been other social contagions i think it's very interesting that it is most dominant among

00:32:33.700 teenage girls just like there was a time period when anorexia was most prominent among teenage girls 0.79

00:32:39.760 and you know the internet has made things infinitely worse as to that doctor that you're talking about

00:32:46.700 in texas i do believe they uh dismissed the prosecution of him what he was accused of doing

00:32:52.680 is um blowing the whistle essentially on a texas hospital which was violating state policy in his mind

00:33:01.280 and he was prosecuted by the u.s department of justice for allegedly violating the privacy rights of the

00:33:09.000 patients that um he blew the whistle on or you know their medical cases and that has been to my

00:33:16.280 understanding that case has been dismissed and he's been vindicated because what it was it was the

00:33:22.200 medical establishment violating he said state law on not performing these surgeries and these chemical

00:33:29.980 interventions um and so he blew the whistle and the department of justice that under the prior

00:33:36.640 administration tried to find a way to prosecute him that's how crazy it got they should have given

00:33:41.860 him an award he should get the presidential whatever that medal is that you give to civilians

00:33:47.260 you know for trying to protect children yeah did you ever think in your years i mean you're a little bit

00:33:52.980 older than me not much older 33 34 years old or something right um yeah i just turned 30 did you ever

00:34:01.200 think i mean through your years you've seen a lot of stuff going on in this country uh did you ever

00:34:07.140 think we'd be at these crossroads where we're seeing things like we just discussed with whether

00:34:12.160 it be the dei whether it be these gender reaffirming surgeries of children even adults did you ever think

00:34:18.260 i mean your mind must be exploding inside i never really did you know with the benefit of hindsight

00:34:25.280 i could see it developing i can track the history of it i say now it all makes sense but when you're

00:34:32.760 going through it you don't realize it um and it was a capture the institutions we should most rely on

00:34:39.020 uh you know medical establishment uh legal establishment uh not to mention education establishment

00:34:46.660 have all been captured by far left-wing ideology doesn't mean every single person in those organizations

00:34:53.500 is that way but they've been ideologically captured and people say well what can we do

00:34:59.000 an executive order is a good first step but we really have a cultural battle here to regain control

00:35:05.900 of our society and i think the place it needs to start is in education because that's where the damage is

00:35:11.520 going all the crazy ideas we're now talking about developed on the campuses they didn't develop

00:35:18.820 in the hospital they didn't develop in the corporation they developed on the campuses and i forget who it

00:35:25.920 was but somebody had the phrase um i think it was andrew sullivan that you know we are all a campus now or

00:35:32.720 we're all the campus now our whole society has gone into crazy land with these theoretical ideas

00:35:39.780 that developed on campuses and now have captured everything so it's not a great situation uh i i think that

00:35:48.140 i can look back on it and understand what went on and there were points in time where i understood it

00:35:55.100 and both i and other people spoke out about it but it really hopefully this new presidency

00:36:02.780 uh is a chance to reverse the flow of what society has been happening not to get us back to some

00:36:10.380 you know 1950s you know leave it to beaver you know you know family thing but let's get us back to

00:36:17.280 rationality let's get us not back to the center back away from the complete craziness uh if we can

00:36:23.620 if donald trump can accomplish that in four years maybe with eight years and added on for jd vance

00:36:30.180 he will have in many ways saved the country from self-destruction you know it's the crazy thing is it's not

00:36:36.000 just k through 12 anymore and we're going to talk about this on the other side of this break but i just

00:36:40.120 want to get this point in it's not just k through 12 it's these colleges and universities you belong to

00:36:44.960 one of them as a law professor um probably one of the best institutions in this country

00:36:49.700 if you went to cornell if you go to cornell you think it's number one if you went to harvard it's

00:36:53.480 number two or so on and so forth but it's these these colleges and institutions that are brainwashing

00:36:58.480 facilities i have a sister who went to colgate university up in hamilton new york when she went

00:37:02.720 it was a top i think 15 school in the country she left here you know republican whatever you know

00:37:07.960 based on our parents see we were born republicans um and came back this marxist i love her to death but

00:37:13.140 she came back this marxist liberal who sees the world a completely different way um and it's 0.89

00:37:18.020 crazy i have another sister went to school down in smu in texas came back the same way she left

00:37:22.560 there was no indoctrination there you know it was a good experience but it's these universities that are

00:37:27.560 doing it and they're they're indoctrinating and they're brainwashing kids and it's hard to believe

00:37:32.160 and we're going to take this up on the other side of this quick break with william jacobson

00:37:35.160 professor at cornell law how such smart kids who are in ivy league schools who are in these top

00:37:41.540 universities can be so easily manipulated by these marxist professors we're coming right back 1.00

00:38:49.880 folks we're back with professor william jacobson he's a professor at cornell law and he's also the

00:38:57.560 founder of the equal protection project he's got a big lawsuit we're going to talk about in just a

00:39:01.160 moment but i want to start with this how is it possible that such smart kids kids who scored

00:39:07.400 through the roof on their sats go to these ivy league schools they leave their home level-headed

00:39:13.240 seeing the country as a great place and then they come home after four years or their first christmas

00:39:19.100 break and they're radicalized marxist how is it possible

00:39:23.220 well there are enormous social pressures on college campuses um to conform and the price of

00:39:33.540 speaking out and not conforming is so high in terms of being socially ostracized or worse

00:39:39.940 that people just go along with it and it is truly astounding it in many cases it may only take a

00:39:47.700 semester uh for somebody to be turned around and uh and and we've got to look at that and we've got

00:39:53.920 to understand why and how that's happening but i believe it's a combination of the orientation and

00:40:01.740 other ideology the colleges are pushing and the severe social pressure to conform and orientation

00:40:09.380 programs you walk in and your first two weeks is all of the things we've been talking about here

00:40:16.780 okay basically we just did the orientation program from the other side that a college student would

00:40:23.340 get and you know and it's not an exaggeration that they are taught to believe that the united

00:40:28.740 states is inherently evil it's inherently racist it can't be changed it's the main problem in the world

00:40:35.200 capitalism is the main problem in the world um you know really it's uh and that's orientation

00:40:42.100 okay uh and then you have the social pressure the internet is one of the worst things that ever

00:40:48.460 happened in this world certainly the social media part of the internet is one of the worst things

00:40:54.080 there's mobbing on the internet there's bad mouthing thankfully you know when i grew up and went to

00:41:00.520 college i'm really thrilled there was no internet now whatever the social pressure

00:41:05.140 were you dealt with them in the cafeteria at high school you didn't deal with them all night long

00:41:13.060 all morning long all day long on the internet so it's really i think we need to look at this we need

00:41:19.900 to look at the rising rates of depression among students particularly bad among females and we need to

00:41:26.620 look at the drop out effect for young men they are essentially dropping out of society in many ways

00:41:34.340 and choosing not to go to these colleges i can't blame them because on day one of orientation they're

00:41:41.040 accused of being you know potential rapists you know and uh so it's a bad situation uh people are

00:41:49.080 voting with their feet young men are voting with their feet uh and i can't blame a lot of them you know

00:41:55.080 and so yeah it's a but so many of the problems in our country stem from higher education all this stuff

00:42:02.720 that's going on in elementary school didn't start in elementary school it started on the college

00:42:08.660 campuses with the students who went into teaching with the students who went into the foundations that

00:42:15.380 provide money went into this with the students who went into the uh publishing houses that published

00:42:21.140 the books it didn't start in k through 12 it started in college but it's now worked its way down

00:42:27.580 into k through 12 we have a major crisis in this country in higher education and we we nobody seems

00:42:33.700 willing to address it at least trump is trying to address it he's what two weeks and not even two

00:42:39.020 weeks you know it's got four more years i hope he keeps up the pace uh not all of these things will

00:42:45.000 land not all of these things will be successful but some of them will be and and i'm all in favor of

00:42:50.560 that i think you're absolutely right and there's a saying the fish rots from the from the head down

00:42:54.620 and that's exactly what we're seeing now with you saying starting with the uh with the colleges now

00:42:59.080 you mentioned uh the the whole capitalism thing that was sort of the uh woke ideology before this

00:43:05.300 whole uh everyone's racist you probably remember the whole occupy wall street thing where a bunch of

00:43:10.300 these idiot kids sat on wall street occupying it to get wanting to get rid of banks not realizing that 0.90

00:43:17.000 everything they've bought every piece of clothing they're wearing every everything their parents done for

00:43:20.980 them was bought through a bank that was sort of the first thing and i took special interest in that

00:43:25.440 because my father was in banking on wall street and my sisters are in wall street banking and i'm sitting

00:43:30.600 there and i'm young at the time and i'm thinking you know i'm 15 60 how dumb are these people that they 0.65

00:43:35.960 want to get rid of banks what do you do with your money that was that was one thing but you're right

00:43:39.940 technology and social media these things are are the devil they really are um you know kids will never

00:43:46.420 see the days of going and knocking on your friend's door to tell them to come out to play

00:43:50.760 staying out on the street playing riding bikes until your mom yelled at you to come home those days are

00:43:55.460 long gone and uh it's sad i think my generation was probably one of the last ones who got to witness

00:44:00.800 that where you weren't sitting home playing video games all day if you weren't sitting on tiktok

00:44:04.720 um you mentioned uh depression rates among women you know everyone follows each other on instagram

00:44:10.480 on tiktok you see your friends are out you're not invited send you in depression you look at the

00:44:16.100 uprising school shootings i think that probably has social media probably has a massive effect

00:44:21.280 on what goes through these kids minds they see that they're not included in plans uh one of the kids

00:44:26.200 gets beat up on the playground someone's got a video of it next thing you know it's all online and

00:44:30.300 everyone's making fun of you the next day uh it really social media and these cell phones have been

00:44:34.480 the demise of i think society for the last 10 years coming it's really sad the last thing i want to

00:44:40.380 hit on is the other thing is birth rates you look at the birth rate decline in this country

00:44:44.000 people don't want to have kids anymore uh young women don't want to get impregnated young men don't 0.83

00:44:49.740 want to impregnate women birth rates are through the floor and we're literally a dying species we're

00:44:55.760 a dying society uh what do you what's your thoughts on that yeah i i think that's a

00:45:01.300 essentially like a trailing indicator if that's the right word that the fact that people don't want

00:45:08.680 to raise families they don't want to get married they don't want to invest in a future generation 0.98

00:45:14.820 is a reflection of all the other things that have gone wrong in our culture it's not unique to the

00:45:20.340 united states there are other developed nations where it's worse i mean korea is collapsing birth

00:45:27.320 rate wise much worse than we are south korea uh same throughout western europe um very interestingly

00:45:33.780 the only economically developed country in the world um where the birth rate far exceeds the

00:45:45.400 replacement rate is israel and uh israel has i look actually looked at this the other day for a

00:45:52.560 different reason uh israel i think has a 3.3 um child per woman um rate and it's roughly equal between

00:46:03.040 you know arabs and jews so it's not one or the other they're roughly equal rates the arab rate

00:46:09.040 has come down dramatically with economic development um to now we're arabs and jews are basically the

00:46:14.760 same but it's over three even for secular jews it's 2.2 which is basically the replacement rate

00:46:21.360 right for religious jews it's messiah but there's something about that society despite all their 1.00

00:46:27.000 problems despite constantly being at war um despite terrorism all these things they're also ranked the

00:46:34.660 fourth happiest country in the world and i think the happiness that they have is reflected in the you

00:46:40.940 know the birth rate that's not true everywhere sometimes it's a reflection of poverty lack of access

00:46:46.260 to contraception things like that but in the developed world the fourth happiest country also happens to have

00:46:52.560 the highest birth rate and so i think the things you're pointing about the collapse of our birth

00:46:57.180 rate in the united states is a reflection of i believe in part the growing unhappiness in this

00:47:03.540 country yeah and you know what and that's israel where you're mandated as a man to go into the

00:47:08.000 military that's a whole different thing we can't draft people into the military here but i constantly

00:47:12.980 ask myself i have no kids i'm not married why would i want to do that to myself as for the kids aspect

00:47:18.220 why do i want to bring a kid into the world where i'm considered a domestic terrorist if i go against

00:47:23.300 what they're being taught in school why do i want to bring into a kid into the world where it's not

00:47:27.640 even affordable to live in new york if you're not making 150 000 or more why do i want to bring a

00:47:33.080 kid into the world who's going to be indoctrinated once he goes to or he or she goes to college

00:47:36.820 to a belief why do i want to bring a kid into the world that's going to grow up one day to hate me

00:47:41.100 because i teach them right from wrong um you know it's a very very very big problem we could spend hours

00:47:47.360 talking about it uh before we get to your lawsuit i want to talk about president trump looking to

00:47:52.340 cancel the visas of the pro-palestine protesters we'd spoken to you a lot you're on show a bunch

00:47:57.320 uh back when we had the uh palestinian protests at nyu and uh at harvard and cornell um your thoughts

00:48:04.820 as this is one of president trump's first acts in the first as we say 11 days in office to go after

00:48:10.760 these terrorist sympathizers who were terrorizing kids were terrorizing a university shutting down

00:48:16.760 universities like they own the place well i think you had to look at what the terms of their visas

00:48:21.760 are let's remember these are people who are here on permission and uh the terms of their as i understand

00:48:28.260 the argument is that this conduct by them you know flying the hezbollah flag flying the hamas flag

00:48:35.140 which may be lawful for an american to do it may be lawful for them to do it they don't go to jail

00:48:41.120 for it but it might violate the terms of their visa that brought them here allowed them to come

00:48:45.420 here and i think the terms of visas is legitimate and should be enforced and so uh i i think that

00:48:51.620 might be a positive thing um i think if you look at a lot of these protests there seem to be a very

00:48:56.740 disproportionate number of foreigners who are here on visas taunting people on the streets and engaging 1.00

00:49:02.540 in aggressive conduct that may not be criminal in the united states but may violate the terms of their visa

00:49:09.460 and i think we should toughen up those visas you don't have a right to come to this country 1.00

00:49:13.840 and if you're going to come here you have to abide by the terms that we allowed you in and i don't

00:49:19.380 know if that conduct violates the visas or not the president seems to think it does uh that will be

00:49:25.360 litigated of course everything's litigated but you know i'm not very sympathetic to the people who come

00:49:31.460 here on a visa and the visa says you can't engage in support of terrorist groups or whatever and then

00:49:38.300 comes here and you know taunts students not just jewish but taunts american students with a hamas flag

00:49:45.380 or with an isis flag you're not deserving to be in this country if that's what you're doing 1.00

00:49:51.800 now if you just have an opinion we don't like that's a different thing but i think take take it as it comes and

00:49:58.260 as of now my understanding is the threat of deporting people is not because you don't like their opinion

00:50:05.060 but because they're engaging in conduct which violates the terms of their visas and this you

00:50:10.400 didn't even mention the guys and women who are burning american flags nobody's telling you you

00:50:14.740 have to be in this country that's the great thing about it if you're an american citizen you can leave

00:50:18.760 freely if you're not an american citizen you're free to go back where you came from if you hate this

00:50:22.920 country and you hate the people that are here and the fabrics that we stand for uh that it doesn't

00:50:27.820 get much simpler than that uh we all dealt with joe biden for four years uh gruelingly with all the bad

00:50:34.520 things he did in this country and we took it none of us said burgh leaving the country if he wins

00:50:38.600 i think it's probably because they're a little bit more level-headed uh than some of these marches

00:50:42.540 but it's it's truly sickening um that this is what it's come to real quick before we get to your lawsuit

00:50:47.200 i keep saying we're getting to it but i want to ask you about uh his president trump's uh deportations

00:50:52.080 and get a legal scholar's mind on it um i had said and i believed before he took office that

00:50:58.340 somewhere somehow it's going to get caught up in the courts someone's going to come and block it

00:51:03.560 um there's nothing in the constitution about birthright citizenship what's your take on on

00:51:09.320 the deportations are we going to be allowed to continue to do them uh and uh president trump

00:51:15.760 wanted to get rid of birthright citizenship what what do you think the implications are for that

00:51:19.200 yeah well on the deportations i think that um it would not shock me if some district court judges

00:51:26.020 put a halt to things um you know uh but there are two to three million people in this country

00:51:33.500 illegally who have gone through the immigration judicial system they have been ordered to leave

00:51:41.300 their asylum claims were denied and they're still here they have no basis for interfering with that 0.99

00:51:46.440 a federal judge um same with people who are here illegally and commit crimes uh you know it would

00:51:51.900 be nice if congress would do its job but there are already enough laws on the books to deport them and 0.62

00:51:58.640 the uh you know uh law that i think it was signed today or yesterday about the young woman in georgia who

00:52:06.680 was killed by lakin riley um uh will uh that's legislation which should allow a lot of these people

00:52:14.140 remember the outrageous thing about democrats voting against that is we're talking about people who are 0.99

00:52:21.400 here illegally and who committed crimes while violent crimes while here and they want them to stay yeah

00:52:28.080 okay you know uh sorry so i think there will be a deportation there will be a lot of what's called

00:52:34.960 self-deportation once the job opportunities dry up once they're this is no longer their their free

00:52:42.180 meal ticket um i think you'll find a lot of people leaving i would not be surprised it's not going to

00:52:47.460 address everything on the issue of birthright citizenship a lot of people are treating that

00:52:51.920 as a frivolous issue oh you know the supreme court's already recognized birthright citizenship

00:52:56.620 not really it's not as clear as people think the decision that people keep referring to had to to do

00:53:04.220 with the children born to permanent resident aliens here people who had permission to stay permanently

00:53:11.620 in the country not somebody who just landed on a plane from you know asia on birthright uh tourism

00:53:19.460 not somebody who crossed the border illegally and gave birth there's never to my knowledge been a

00:53:24.860 supreme court ruling on whether somebody the child of somebody in the country illegally um is entitled to

00:53:32.440 birthright citizenship and there is significant um evidence that the framers or the 14th amendment

00:53:40.180 did not intend that when they framed the issue of that's now called birthright citizenship so i don't

00:53:48.200 think it's a frivolous issue i can't predict how the court will come down but it is not a frivolous

00:53:53.200 issue like some like all of the media is treating it all of the legacy media is treating it like this is

00:53:58.900 crazy this is you know frivolous um a judge made a comment apparently in one of the cases like i can't

00:54:06.440 believe any lawyer would come in here and argue well there's a lot of scholarly articles that argue

00:54:11.640 that one our notion of birthright citizenship is not supported by the constitution and the framers

00:54:18.460 of the 14th amendment and also that the case law really isn't as strong for it as people are claiming

00:54:24.740 right i think that makes perfect sense well i guess we'll just have to wait and see uh how it plays out

00:54:30.080 but i wanted to get your take on that because like i said i think you're a brilliant

00:54:33.460 legal scholar it's so funny to me how uh two people so far right so far left can be so far uh

00:54:40.920 disconnected on the same issue you know there are some brilliant legal minds on the left not many but

00:54:47.360 uh it's just so funny to me i want to turn to a lawsuit that you had filed last august that's

00:54:53.060 finally now picking up some traction against the ithaca school district and their discrimination

00:54:57.540 against white students tell us a little bit about what's going on with the case and uh how it's

00:55:02.840 going to progress so um i teach at cornell which is in ithaca okay and it came to my attention i don't

00:55:09.640 even remember how somebody must have tipped me off or something that they had been running a program

00:55:14.380 called students of color united um uh annual gathering uh and uh that white students were excluded

00:55:22.900 from it and i looked into it and i researched it and sure enough this was a horrible program running

00:55:29.440 over four years in the ithaca city school district to which white students were barred to the extent i

00:55:36.700 mean i'm not even talking about nuance here they had a frequently asked question on the official website

00:55:42.860 explaining why aren't white students invited okay the registration form required students registering for

00:55:52.260 this event to affirm that they understand this is only for students of color okay um the uh

00:56:00.760 administrative emails that we gathered through various processes mostly uh freedom of information

00:56:06.820 law process in new york um it was very clear every level administrator um and what's outrageous about it

00:56:15.020 is that people did complain okay after the first year of this event in 2021 i think it was people

00:56:23.260 complained formally it came up at the board of education and the board of education ignored the complaints

00:56:29.340 people in the community and this is a liberal community um are saying this doesn't seem right to me

00:56:35.800 okay why are we segregating students by race these students who were the non-white students were

00:56:42.880 released from class on the days of this event and the white students had to stand behind you know

00:56:49.280 uh in class or stay behind in class and so really grotesque stuff and so we sent a demand letter to the

00:56:55.780 district and went public with it and got it written up a lot of publicity and the district said oh we're not

00:57:01.500 really doing that that was just a miscommunication and i didn't like that okay because it wasn't a

00:57:08.820 miscommunication we have four years of your records okay and so we then followed up in august so that

00:57:14.720 would have been late may early june of last year after they've been doing it for four years and we

00:57:21.700 filed a complaint a civil rights complaint with the office for civil rights of the u.s department of

00:57:27.320 education and in it we asked the department of education to open an investigation and take action

00:57:33.180 against the district for this grotesque four-year discriminatory program that they had and just now

00:57:40.040 with this incoming trump administration they opened a formal investigation and that's the first big step

00:57:47.140 in any civil rights complaint with the department is when they make the decision to open the investigation

00:57:53.400 that doesn't mean they found the district guilty but it means they think there's enough there to open

00:57:59.140 it so that that's what we have they've now moved into higher gear let's put it that way and we think the

00:58:05.660 district needs to be held accountable because dozens of teachers were involved in this dozens of

00:58:12.000 administrators up to the highest level the board of education was involved in this and they did and they

00:58:20.240 were non-apologetic they've never apologized for it they've denied and obfuscated what they did they wrote it off

00:58:27.120 in a press release a public statement this was a miscommunication we apologize for any misunderstanding

00:58:33.220 from our communications we will try to be better in the future no this was outright discrimination on

00:58:40.500 the basis of race against white students who could not attend this event and we want them to be held

00:58:46.400 accountable and i hope the department of education does we're calling for many things where i think they

00:58:52.080 need a fine i think they need to not just to um have perhaps a an administrative monitor a so-called

00:58:58.940 special master appointed this is a district that's in very deep denial about what they did they still

00:59:04.960 haven't apologized for it i mean that tells you right there and that's what we want and hopefully

00:59:10.780 under this new administration uh you know i'm not that critical of the department of education

00:59:16.380 office for civil rights they've opened other investigations for us but i really hope the new

00:59:22.560 administration takes it to a new level and a new level of enforcement and these schools need to

00:59:27.820 understand we filed over 60 cases so far these schools need to understand the civil rights laws

00:59:33.960 protect everybody they don't only protect one race and racism against whites against asians is not okay

00:59:42.260 just like racism against blacks and hispanics is not okay there's got to be equal enforcement of the

00:59:47.940 laws and that's what our equal protection project equalprotect.org is all about which is holding

00:59:54.560 schools accountable to not just the civil rights laws not just the 14th amendment but their own rules and

01:00:01.320 regulations all of these districts and all of these universities the 60 we filed against all have in their

01:00:07.660 internal rules that they will not discriminate on the basis of race or national origin and then they

01:00:13.160 go out and they do it anyway so i i think ithaca school district needs to be made an example of

01:00:18.580 i'll go one further i'm all for getting rid of the department of education uh all together uh it's far too

01:00:24.540 much corruption there there's far too many bureaucrats who skate by uh you probably know a little something

01:00:29.240 about tenure they've probably got something over there that you know makes them uh non-fireable and they

01:00:34.760 just sit there their whole lives they get a pension and uh they mean to do harm we need more attorneys

01:00:39.800 like you in this country and i know i understand fully why you're one of lou's favorite attorneys to
