Racial discrimination at Harvard: Blacks are granted such a large advantage by Harvard over their White peers that a Black applicant in the 5th decile still has a higher chance of admission than a White applicant in the 10th decile. If we use Asians in the 10th academic decile as a reference point, we notice that the most qualified Asian individuals have a worse chance of getting into Harvard than Black individuals in the 4th decile from the bottom half of the applicant pool.

I’ve got news @TomSteyer — girls and women aren’t emotional support animals for confused boys. The boys can go to therapy and leave us gals alone.

@MayorFrey He was not murdered. He died of a drug overdose. You failed the test of maintaining basic civic order in your city. You let a mob pervert the justice system to soothe your conscience. Derek Chauvin is innocent. And he will be free again. x.com/PassagePress/s…

Today we are proud to announce the release of American Scapegoat: How a Corrupt Justice System Sacrificed Derek Chauvin to the Mob by former federal prosecutor T.J. Harker (@TJ_Harker). Six years ago today, George Floyd died while in custody of Minneapolis beat cop Derek Chauvin, sparking the most destructive riots in our nation's history and becoming the pretext for an era of mass political hysteria that threatened to rip apart the very fabric of American life. Cities burned. Floyd's body was paraded around in a gold casket. Every institution was made to bend the knee to BLM. Ordinary white Americans, represented by the person of Derek Chauvin, were called to account for three centuries of racial grievance. All most Americans saw of that day was the grainy cellphone footage of Officer Chauvin's knee restraining the back of George Floyd's neck. Few bothered to learn any other details about the case, and by the time the trial rolled around, the verdict was a foregone conclusion. An innocent black man had been killed by a racist white cop, they were told. And for America to atone for its original sins, that racist white cop had to pay the price. What they didn't know was that Chauvin's knee did not prevent Floyd from breathing. They didn't know Chauvin was following procedure by the book. They didn't know Floyd had taken lethal amounts of fentanyl minutes before being restrained. They didn't know Floyd had a pre-existing heart condition. They didn't know the autopsy report had been revised under threat of professional harm. They didn't know the original prosecutor removed herself from the case after seeing all of the evidence. They didn't know the subsequent prosecutors had to abandon their theory of the case just days into the trial. They didn't know the prosecution never established a cause of death, let alone that Derek Chauvin was responsible. In American Scapegoat, author T.J. Harker breaks down what happened on that fateful day six years ago, analyzes the thousands of court documents manipulated and recontextualized to achieve the trial result Minnesota politicians demanded, and relives the trial itself in thorough, painstaking detail to definitively show that Derek Chauvin did not kill George Floyd. Never in modern American history has our justice system been so corrupted by public mass hysteria than in the case of Derek Chauvin. This is the story of that trial. This is the story of how a man was sacrificed to the mob. American Scapegoat is available for pre-order now. Coming Fall '26.

@MayorFrey Today we remember the veterans who gave the ultimate sacrifice in defense of our freedoms. Not drug addicts who overdosed.

@MayorFrey It changed your city, state and my country for the worse. Rioters on your side killed people and did billions in economic damage. And for what? Defunding police policies that have led to more people being killed.

@MayorFrey George Floyd died from a Fentanyl overdose, @MayorFrey. Today, George Floyd is six years sober, and absolutely nobody misses that career criminal, drug addict, THUG. Here’s a page from his autopsy report.

Angie Craig capped insulin at $35 — while $BILLIONS was stolen from the Medicaid programs that pay for that insulin, by people in her own party, in her own state, on her watch. 🙄 She told constituents to flood 911 on ICE — then called 911 herself when she needed help in an elevator. She voted FOR the Laken Riley Act — then reversed herself and called it a mistake. She flew to El Paso for immigrant photo ops — while Minnesota families buried their dead. She told Tulsi Gabbard ‘See ya!’ when Tulsi’s husband was diagnosed with bone cancer. She sat silent through the greatest government fraud in Minnesota history — and now wants Minnesota’s Senate seat. Angry Angie — you had your chance. Minnesota is done. 🇺🇸 #NeverCraig #AngieCraig #MNSenate #VoteRed #November2026 #Minnesota #Accountability

People talk about taking on Big Pharma. I actually did it. I wrote the bill that capped insulin at $35 a month.

By 1900, the United States had achieved a 90% literacy rate largely by using McGuffey Readers in one-room schoolhouses.  But, yeah, NYC’s problem is it’s not spending enough money.

Today, the City of Minneapolis wants to celebrate George Floyd instead of Memorial Day. In fact, they've failed to honor Memorial Day for years. All their posts on Memorial Day are just to remind people that the offices are closed. A violent career criminal who overdosed on fentanyl and held up a pregnant woman at gunpoint vs honoring brave service members who gave their lives for our country. Minneapolis is a FAILED city. Tampon Tim is a DISGRACE

Claire Abernathy was put on testosterone at 14, had a double mastectomy before she was in high school, and was fighting to have her medical transition reversed by 17. Now 21, she is detransitioning and urging lawmakers to help protect minors. trib.al/ZZmqAPh

With respect, I am confident you are mistaken or misinformed. @AAMCtoday no longer publishes the data below in "Table A-24.2 MCAT and GPA Grid for Black Applicants and Acceptees to US Medical School." In a 4/22/2024 email, AAMC representative Brianna specifically told me "The AAMC no longer produces the MCAT/GPA grids by race/ethnicity." If YOU can provide current MCAT/GPA grids by race/ethnicity, please let me know by DM or email.

The @AAMCtoday no longer makes these data available, but when it did, the medical school data showed a significant difference in the admission rates among Asians, Whites, Hispanics, and Blacks. With average MCAT scores and average GPA, Blacks had a 4X greater acceptance rate vs. Asians and nearly 3X greater acceptance rate vs. Whites. @aaronsibarium @keshavs_journal @BillAckman @elonmusk @libsoftiktok @jordanbpeterson
