Addendum the tweet criticises the PragerU short for its willingness to ignore #OtheringDiscriminationRacismStructuralSystemicInstitutional (and actually, #TheorySociologyIntersectionality).

#BrandAccessIntelligenceLLCPRNewsGroupSophieMaerowitz [Muckrack] "On Jan. 6 at 2:55 p.m. ET--about 20 minutes after insurrectionists breached the U.S. Capitol building--beauty influencer Amanda Ensing tweeted, 'There's not enough popcorn in the world for what's about to happen.' A self-proclaimed Trump supporter and Christian, Ensing has long been vocal about her political and religious views on social media.
Users on both the left and the right were quick to condemn Ensing's Jan. 6 comment, with fellow influencer Gabriel Zamora tweeting, 'this is entertainment to you?' and others questioning Ensing's religious convictions. In addition, social media users have denounced Ensing for 'blackfishing,' or pretending to be black or mixed-race online for personal gain. (No evidence has refuted Ensing's half-Puerto Rican heritage, although critics have alleged a misleading opportunistic and "rebrand")." https://www.prnewsonline.com/sephora-influencer-PR-Ensing

Supplementary #MagazineUSTheNewYorkerPaigeWilliams "In September, 2020--four months after the murder of George Floyd, two months before the Presidential election, and a month into Williamson County Schools' use of Wit & Wisdom--Christopher Rufo, a conservative activist, appeared on Tucker Carlson's show, on Fox News, and called critical race theory 'an existential threat to the United States.' Rufo capitalized on the fact that, given C.R.T.'s academic provenance, few Americans had heard of the concept. He argued that liberal educators, under the bland banner of 'diversity,' were manipulating students into thinking of America not as a vibrant champion of democracy but as a shameful embodiment of white supremacy. (As he framed things, there were no in-between positions.) Rufo later called C.R.T. 'the perfect villain'--a term that 'connotes hostile, academic, divisive, race-obsessed, poisonous, elitist, anti-American views.' Rufo found a receptive ear in President Donald Trump, who was already ranting about 'The 1619 Project,' the collection of Times Magazine essays in which slavery is placed at the heart of the nation's founding. On Twitter, Trump had warned that the Department of Education would defund any school whose classroom taught material from the project. Trump conferred with Rufo and banned federal agencies from conducting 'un-American propaganda training sessions' involving 'critical race theory' or 'white privilege.' Trump said that Black Lives Matter protests were proliferating not because of anger over police abuses but because of 'decades of left-wing indoctrination in our schools.' Establishing a '1776 Commission,' he urged 'patriotic moms and dads' to demand that schools stop feeding children 'hateful lies about this country.' (The American Historical Association condemned the Administration's eventual '1776 Report,' highlighting its many inaccuracies and arguing that it attempted to airbrush history and 'elevate ignorance about the past to a civic virtue.') Nearly nine hundred school districts nationwide were soon targeted by anti- C.R.T. campaigns, many of which adopted language that closely echoed Trump's order not to teach material that made others 'feel discomfort, guilt, anguish, or any other form of psychological distress on account of his or her race or sex.' In some red states, the vague wording was enshrined as law. Republicans filed what became known as 'anti-C.R.T.' bills; they were seemingly cut and pasted from templates, with similarly phrased references to such terms as 'divisive concepts' and 'indoctrination.' Williamson County Schools was uneventfully wrapping up its first term with Wit & Wisdom when, in early December, 2020, the American Legislative Exchange Council, which generates model legislation for right-leaning lawmakers, hosted a Webinar about 'reclaiming education and the American dream.' A representative of the Heritage Foundation, the conservative think tank, warned that elements of a 'Black Lives Matter curriculum' were 'now in our schools.' Rufo--correctly predicting that Joe Biden, then the President- elect, would abolish Trump's executive order--urged state legislators and governors to take up the fight. Continuing the agitation wasn't just an act of fealty to Trump; it was cunning politics. The fear that C.R.T. would cause children to become fixated on race has resonated with enough voters to help tip important elections. Last November, Glenn Youngkin, a candidate for the governorship of Virginia, won an upset victory after repeatedly warning that the 'curriculum has gone haywire'--and promising to sign an executive order banning C.R.T. from schools. Jatia Wrighten, a political scientist at Virginia Commonwealth University, told the Washington Post that Youngkin had 'activated white women to vote in a very specific way that they feel like is protecting their children.' Days after the alec Webinar on 'reclaiming education,' three women in Florida filed incorporation papers for Moms for Liberty, Inc., later declaring that their 'sole purpose' was to 'fight for parental rights' to choose what sort of education was best for their kids. One of the organization's founders, Tina Descovich--who had recently lost reëlection to the school board of Brevard County, Florida, after opposing pandemic safety protocols--soon appeared on Rush Limbaugh's show. Declaring plans to 'start with school boards and move on from there,' she said of like-minded parents, 'It sounds a little melodramatic, but there is evil working against us on a daily basis.' maga media--'Tucker Carlson Tonight,' Breitbart--showcased Moms for Liberty. Media Matters, the liberal watchdog, argued that influential right-wing media figures were essentially 'recruiting their eager audience' for the Moms' campaign. Moms for Liberty, which is sometimes referred to as M4L or MFL, is so new that it is hard to parse, from public documents, what its leaders are getting paid. (The founders say that the chairs of local chapters are volunteers.) The group describes itself as a 'grassroots' organization, yet its instant absorption by the conservative mediasphere has led some critics to suspect it of being an Astroturf group--an operation secretly funded by moneyed interests. Moms for Liberty registered with the I.R.S. as the kind of social-welfare nonprofit that can accept unlimited dark money." https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2022/11/07/the-right-wing-mothers-fuelling-the-school-board-wars #AdvocacyUSManhattanInstituteForPolicyResearchChristopherRufo [Wikipedia] #NMUSFOXFNCTuckerCarlson #TheorySociologyCriticalRaceTheoryCRT #SlurWhiteSupremacy #PhenomnPolarisationDivisiveIssue #OtheringElitesLiberalCulturalEducated #PoliticsNationalismAmericanAnti #OrgClassifPPUSRepublicanPartyGOPPOTUSDonaldTrump #Cause1619Project #PhenomnWhitePrivilege #CauseBlackLivesMatterBLM #TauntIndoctrination #1776_Commission #1776_USDeclarationOfIndependence4thOfJuly #PoliticsPatriotism #OrgUSAmericanHistoricalAssociationAHA #AdvocacyUSAmericanLegislativeExchangeCouncilALEC #AdvocacyUSTheHeritageFoundation #OrgClassifPPUSRepublicanPartyGOPGlennYoungkin #IRLScientistPoliticalJatiaWrighten #EDUUSVirginiaCommonwealthUniversity #ToponymAmericaNorthUSFloridaBrevardCounty #IRLShockJockRushLimbaugh #LiteralSchoolBoard #NMUSBreitbart #AdvocacyUSMediaMattersForAmericaMMFA #TheoryPerformativeActivismAstroturfing

Supplementary #NewspaperUKBrdshtBylineTimes "So far, the Project 2025 Heritage Foundation and Claremont Institute plan to codify the 'Unitary Executive theory' into law has been successful. Until recently, the Unitary Executive Theory was a fringe constitutional doctrine asserting the President holds sole authority over the entire executive branch, derived from Article II's vesting of 'the executive Power' in one person, meaning Congress can't limit presidential control over executive officials or agencies. The US Supreme Court has now mostly embraced this idea, and has consistently removed Congressional oversight powers, or even the power to dictate where and how funds are spent. The other two branches have yielded power willingly; the Republican controlled Congress has handed over the power of the purse to the executive branch, and the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) has nearly universally accepted Department of Justice (DOJ) arguments that the executive branch cannot be countermanded via injunctions. SCOTUS also granted near-blanket immunity to the President to commit crimes while in office, so long as they are a part of 'official acts.' The Republican Party is increasingly behaving like a party that believes it will never face a competitive election again, which I believe is exactly what is happening. The administration increasingly doubles down on unpopular policies and positions, including defending young Republican leaders who got caught admiring Hitler and looking forward to gassing and burning the bodies of their political opponents. Trump is deep underwater in opinion polls across most of his signature issues, including tariffs, the economy, and immigration. Yet Republican leadership seems to assume they have the capability to decide Presidential elections in perpetuity, regardless of how people vote." https://bylinetimes.com/2026/01/22/trump-has-already-rigged-the-2028-presidential-election-us-defence-insider/ #AdvocacyUSTheHeritageFoundation #AdvocacyUSTheHeritageFoundationProject2025 #TheoryConstitutionalLawUnitaryExecutiveTheory [Wikipedia] #OrgUSFedSupremeCourtSCOTUS #OrgUSFedDptOfJusticeDOJ #OrgClassifPPUSRepublicanPartyGOP #PoliticsAuthoritarianismAutocracy

@YvonneScheckelhoff [name pseudonymized] [ontology] : Someone tell #Skeletor, aka @SenRickScott @ScottforFlorida that no one but #conservative #boomers says #woke anymore. #okboomer #florida #floridaman [URL redacted]
#WebsiteHuffPostAmandaTerkel "In his 10-minute speech to the conservative Heritage Foundation in Washington on Thursday, Scott kept saying the word 'woke' in that same cringeworthy way some people are still using 'da bomb.' (You know who you are.) 'Americans in flyover country have had absolutely enough of this woke elitist nonsense.' 'The woke left wants all of that gone. They want to end the American experiment. They want to replace freedom with control.' 'Democrats know they can't win with their crazy woke ideas.' 'They're going to say I'm not woke enough, and I'm not serious.' For what it's worth, no one is going to say Scott is not woke enough, because anyone who could be considered woke - i.e., someone who cares about injustice and inequality - likely isn't using that word anymore. But indeed, Scott might face some questions about how serious he is."

#OrgClassifPPUKConservativePartyOliverDowden: "Today, a social media mob can cancel you merely because you have dared to challenge one of the left's fashionable nostrums. To mount a vigorous defence of the values of a free society." #TauntWokeMob #CatchcryCancelCulture #TauntLeftThe #TauntNostrum
"When the Prime Minister appointed me as Chairman of our Party in September, I said that I intended to be a strong voice for our conservative values. So, I am writing to you from the United States where I am meeting leading conservative politicians and strategists to see what we can learn from our transatlantic friends to get the Party ready to win the next General Election. But I am also here to strengthen our alliance at a crucial time in conservatives' battle against a pernicious new ideology which is infecting our schools, universities, government bodies, companies and now even the hard sciences. Just yesterday, I spoke to the Heritage Foundation think tank in Washington DC about this. I am of course talking about so-called 'social justice warriors'. Those who claim to be 'woke'. The people who vandalise the Cenotaph and statues of Sir Winston Churchill. Who think that 'free speech is hate speech' and that people are 'privileged' just because of their skin colour. It is tempting to assume that these 'ideas' can be passed off as a fad. I do not see it that way, Alma. I see it as a profoundly dangerous phenomenon. At a time when our attention should be focused on external foes, the country is in danger of entering a period of extreme and nonsensical self-criticism. When we should be showcasing our values and the strength of democratic societies, we look willing to abandon those values. Only the Conservatives can combat this ideology. Just this week, my friend the Education Secretary made clear to teachers that their job is education not indoctrination and set out strict new rules so our children can make their own minds up. But we should not assume the path to victory is an easy one. It is profoundly sad that the modern Labour Party is gripped by this ideology and that is why we need your help to kick it out of our institutions." #AdvocacyUSTheHeritageFoundation #ToponymAmericaNorthUSWashingtonDC #SymbolWarMemorialUKCenotaph #IRLHistoricalFigureWinstonChurchill #CatchcryFreeSpeechFreedomOfSpeech #PhenomnWhitePrivilege #CatchcryIntrospection #OtheringHateSpeech #OrgClassifPPUKConservativePartyNadhimZahawi #MetaphorWarfareCultureLiberalEducation #TauntIndoctrination #OrgClassifPPUKLabour

Addendum #WebsiteHuffPostMollyRedden "Trump appointed Mizelle to the federal bench in late 2020 over objections from the American Bar Association that she had not been practicing law long enough to be qualified. A search of her other rulings found she had never previously applied corpus linguistics. Neither Mizelle nor the Judicial Education Institute responded to requests for comment. In response to the new disclosure, Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-R.I.), a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee who chairs the subcommittee on federal courts and oversight, called for more disclosure surrounding when judges attend ideological educational retreats. 'The multi-pronged billionaire-funded scheme to influence the judiciary includes flying amenable judges to luxury resorts to bathe them in the latest fantastical right-wing legal theories,' he said in a statement to HuffPost. 'At the very least, the public ought to know when judges are attending lavish 'seminars' promoting the agenda of partisan special interests. The Judicial Conference should take a close look at tightening its rules to ensure transparency around such junkets.' Legal corpus linguistics is not inherently ideological. Nevertheless, as the right-wing legal movement increasingly insists that courts must interpret the law based on 'history and tradition,' conservatives have seized on corpus linguistics as a useful source of legitimacy. 'History,' as described by the conservatives who dominate the federal courts these days, has an uncanny way of mirroring the political beliefs of the modern GOP on issues like gun laws, school prayer, organized labor and abortion rights. Corpus linguistics, the thinking goes, with its air of big data, offers a potential retort to the accusations that judges are simply cherry-picking their view of the past. But skeptics argue that it's just as easy for an ideologically motivated judge to cherry-pick results from a search engine. 'A lot of what legal corpus work tends to do is allow you to pick and choose your history,' Anya Bernstein, a professor studying legal interpretation at the University of Connecticut School of Law who has written critically of legal corpus linguistics, told HuffPost in March.
