The University of Texas has agreed to dismantle its Campus Climate Response Team after an ongoing legal battle concerning the right to free speech on campus, according to an opinion piece from the Wall Street Journal.
The UT website states the team was enacted to help students report hateful comments, prejudiced behavior or other incidents of alleged bias. Examples include derogatory graffiti, verbal harassment, hostile classroom environments or hateful written comments in regard to topics such as citizenship, race, disability, sexual orientation or gender identity.
Sure, what could go wrong when you put a bunch of liberal whiny ass students in charge of "policing" political correctness? Apparently The University of Texas will need to move out of Texas if they want to continue with this sort of selective censorship.
Senate Bill 18 was passed in 2019, which required public colleges and universities across Texas to develop more uniform policies on free speech. It states that they must allow anyone to engage in free speech on campus and create disciplinary sanctions for students who interfere. It also asks that school leaders develop a process to address complaints of potential free speech violations, but it also allows them to put restrictions on the time, place and manner of these free speech activities.
What does it tell you when a states has to create laws that allow free speech in our public colleges and universities? It tells us that our secondary education situation is in dire need of repair. It also tells us that we have an upcoming generation of children who believe that the entire world not only revolves around, but caters to their own personal opinions.
Remember Veruca Salt from Willie Wonka and the chocolate factory? The one who demanded that her father buy her everything because she wanted it and wanted it NOW? That is pretty much the poster child of our upcoming generation of children. They are just looking for the right sucker to come along and provide everything to them.

- I did not personally create the University of Texas.

GOOD NEWS
Georgia Runoffs Unlikely to Split
11:33 am
Associated Press:
“One thing helping line voters up is the decision of the candidates in both races to run as tickets, with joint appearances and advertisements.
“With the candidates running as tickets, it’s unlikely the parties will split the seats. Two wins would put Democrats in control of the U.S. Senate with Vice President-elect Kamala Harris breaking a 50-50 tie. A split or two GOP wins would keep Republicans in control.”
WHY DEMOCRATS SHOULD WIN
Jobless Benefits Run Out as Trump Sits on Relief Bill
11:14 am
“Millions of Americans lost their unemployment coverage on Saturday as President Trump resisted signing a sweeping $900 billion aid package until lawmakers more than tripled the size of relief checks, putting the fate of the measure in limbo,” the New York Times reports.
“Mr. Trump’s resistance to signing the bill risks leaving millions of unemployed Americans without crucial benefits, jeopardizes other critical assistance for businesses and families set to lapse at the end of the year and raises the possibility of a government shutdown on Tuesday.”
Playbook:
“Unemployment benefits have already run out. But the president, comfortably enveloped at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach, seems to be growing more indignant that the rescue package deal his treasury secretary cut with Congress is insufficient. He is showing no signs whatsoever that he is going to sign it.
“The president’s aides and allies are working to try to get him to reverse his stance, with evidently little success.”
Sanders Calls Out Trump as ‘Unbelievably Cruel’

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) called out President Trump’s response to the $900 billion COVID-10 relief bill passed in Congress last week “unbelievably cruel” in an ABC News interview.
Said Sanders:
“What the president is doing right now is unbelievably cruel. Many millions of people are losing their extended unemployment benefits. They’re going to be evicted from their apartments because the eviction moratorium is ending. We are looking at a way to get the vaccine distributed to tens of millions of people. There’s money in that bill.”

Trump is Just Trying to Inflict Pain on Congress
4:27 pm EST
A source briefed by White House officials on the relief bill told the Washington Post, President Trump — who has been frustrated by his election loss and the fallout from the coronavirus pandemic — is “just angry at everybody and wants to inflict as much pain on Congress as possible.”
TRUMP IS JUST FURIOUS THAT ALL THE COURTS AND JUDGES (INCLUDING THE SUPREME COURT) AND REPUBLICAN POLITICIANS AND GREAT, MASSIVE NUMBERS OF THE PUBLIC ARE NOT LEAPING TO THEIR FEET AND SAYING, "YOU WON THE ELECTION!"
TRUMP IS JUST FURIOUS THAT ALL THE COURTS AND JUDGES (INCLUDING THE SUPREME COURT) AND REPUBLICAN POLITICIANS AND GREAT, MASSIVE NUMBERS OF THE PUBLIC ARE NOT LEAPING TO THEIR FEET AND SAYING, "YOU WON THE ELECTION!"
Then why hasn't this been proven in a court of law Reverend?
Must be a total lie, just like election fraud.
