…to a seat on the bench. Because FedSoc publicly casts itself as a non-partisan debate club, though, the code effectively protects Neil Gorsuch’s sacred right to don a bow tie next time FedSoc conclave rolls around. This ethics code exists largely as a marketing tool for reporters willing to buy what the FedSoc Six are selling, but also as cover for the justices’ clear preferences.

First Draft Of History Today Could Be Fox News Promo Tomorrow

By Lauri Lebo

As President Obama signs the health care bill into law today, we are watching the first draft of history. But imagine what students a generation from now will be taught about the most significant overhaul of this nation’s health-care system since Medicare if the conservative activists on the Texas Board of Education are successful at their long-range goal of using the public education system to rewrite history. If publishers kowtow to the board a…

That kind of hucksterism is probably exactly why a guy like…

Apocalyptic Rhetoric at Moms for Liberty Summit Illustrates Political Challenge of 2024

By Chrissy Stroop

…nothing less than the kind of right-wing indoctrination I grew up with. DeSantis, for example, called for mandatory civics in public schools with curricula shaped by the decidedly right-wing Heritage Foundation and Hillsdale College. Former president and insurrection fomenter Donald Trump, too, rambled on about how “bad” things are, asserting several times that if Republicans lose in 2024 “there’s no coming back.” And interestingly enough, out of…

By Joanna Brooks

…de, we sounded a note of caution here at RD about the “dark side” of honor code enforcement. After all, the honor code had been created during the 1960s in an effort by ultra-conservative BYU President Ernest Wilkinson to root out liberals, and honor code enforcement (including anonymous referrals) had been used to bait and harrass feminist, liberal, and gay students, shut down campus free speech, and compromise the privacy of pastoral counseling…
