Sic is just legal-ese for "bless your heart."

A plaintiff’s constitutional claims against a city for its police officers’ repeated usage of excessive force have survived dismissal in the Western District of Virginia after the court found the pleadings supported four theories of liability. https://t.co/7dBD4w9wD2

@eafb71 @MyCaseInc Frustrated, buy glad to know it's not just me.

"The potential consequences of Lhamon’s new rules are enormous."

In the Title IX world, the accusation alone (even with no supporting evidence) is sufficient to cause career ending consequences. Students are often made to disclose on future applications any time they were “charged,” not just convicted.

An awful rape happened at an Alexandria high school. Instead of giving families the info they needed to keep their kids safe and doing something about the rising violence in ACPS, the school board, district officials, and the mayor hid it from parents. https://t.co/qBijO92YPB

Biden admin will be reviewing T IX and threatens rollback of due process. Lhamon’s return endangers students' rights. It is so important to learn how to participate in the public comment period of this regulatory review. Sign up: https://t.co/f6IfYc1xKG

2020 T IX Regs protect complainants such as these Liberty U students, prohibiting the retaliatory behaviors described in their lawsuit.

"All that said, at least we know what we are getting in Catherine Lhamon and, more important, we know to stand watch, to be prepared, and to fight back at her every attempt to violate the civil rights of students."

"{A]t some point, our society must address the needs and vulnerabilities of men and boys as men and boys, advocate equal treatment and civil liberties in their behalf, and elect politicians who are willing to do the same." YOUR VOTE IS YOUR VOICE!

Catherine Lhamon returns to head @EDcivilrights. It's time to ask the question: how did we get here?

[Scott Greenfield @ScottGreenfield]

Catherine Lhamon's nomination as head of the Office of Civil Rights at the DoE will go to the Senate this week.

There is no one who hates campus due process more than Lhamon. If Senate Dems value constitutional rights, they must reject her nomination.

Focus should be on being #Brave and #Strong. Being "safe" all the time is dangerous.

I wrote in @NewYorker on studies by psychologists, conducted between 2018 and 2021, which suggest that trigger warnings do not help and may even harm mental health. https://t.co/QnCrtbDS40

I take back most of the bad things I've said about 2021.

Songs were cut from the live show. There doesn't seem to be 1 song that stands out, & the singing of the regular actors (Amy Adam's, Julianne Moore) was not strong. I'd still see it again, and I'd remember to bring tissues this time.

@brianweigand00 I saw DEH the movie. It was my first since the beginning of the pandemic. I enjoyed it. The subject is very serious, and if you are not in touch with adolescents, you may not be interested. 1/2

[Families Advocating for Campus Equality @FaceCampusEqual]

“Under Lhamon, universities and colleges can expect a return to the days when a single complaint might launch an expensive, large-scale investigation.”

Untold numbers of (mostly) young men have been subject to terrifying injustice by campus sexual assault tribunals. Finally, a dean acknowledges the damage & cruelty she & colleagues have inflicted. I pray @CatherineLhamon & @joeBiden read this. https://t.co/lMywBt6vNS

"Now, however, the wolf is at the door. Her name is Catherine Lhamon, and she is being nominated to retake her old job – head of the Education Department’s Office for Civil Rights (OCR)."
@JustinDillonLaw & @staylor5448 have that right.
