Jackie Fielder weaponized a dead cat then immediately pumped a crypto scam.
When a Waymo killed a neighborhood cat named KitKat in the Mission she rushed to hold press conferences and rallies demanding bans on self-driving cars. Critics called it cynical political theater since human drivers kill millions of animals every year.
Right after the rally she jumped on X and started hyping the $KITKAT memecoin on Solana. Watchdogs called it a classic PUMP-and-DUMP. She never disclosed if she held a stake or cashed out while retail investors got wrecked.
A formal ethics complaint was filed against her for using her public office to promote a speculative financial grift. This is the same âDemocratic Socialistâ who rails against corporate greed and chairs the committee that polices it.
While you struggled to pay rent she was pumping a crypto scam off a dead cat.
This is staggering hypocrisy and self-dealing. Jackie Fielder must resign.
A black man in San Francisco shoves an elderly man from behind.
The victim hits his head on the pavement and dies.
Completely unprovoked. âI was having a bad day.â
And he got PROBATION.
Judges should be held accountable for the consequences of the people they let back out.
@minilek Who are the decision makers on this?
They are a disaster
Is it the Regents who will make the call on this as well?
What can be done to restore some sanity and confidence back with the UCs?
Looks like University of California leadership is going to water down the admissions requirements right at the moment when they should instead be bringing back the SATs just like all the Ivies did
Some of the talking points in the document for why we may need to remove/replace requirements include "changing workforce needs", "widespread adoption of AI", and "studentsâ need to apply knowledge and skills to current real-world scenarios".
These were basically all the talking points of the California Math Framework (CMF) for why we needed to dumb down high school math.
That's no accident. Guess who's partnering with the UC on this workgroup? The State Board of Education -- the state body that adopted the CMF.
While faculty complain of rising student underpreparedness, University of California leadership is concerned our minimum admission requirements are "overly rigid" and convened a workgroup to investigate reducing them.
Notably, the workgroup is not allowed to consider enhancing requirements, only reduce them.
I guess they thought everyone is so focused on the SAT that no one would notice this getting snuck in.
Brittney Griner is a full grown-adult man, and theyâre allowing him to lay out Caitlin Clark â with a shoulder đ€Ż
Stop letting men compete in womenâs sports!! đ„
Update: 270+ professors have signed the social sciences/humanities letter to bring back standardized tests across the University of California
Strong showing from the following fields:
-Economics
-Political Science
-Sociology
-Psychology
-Business
@alpha1906@minilek If someone doesnât know middle school math itâs likely their other qualifications are poor as well
Itâs not just about the numbers
Itâs base qualifications
And thousands of admits do not have it
Anti merit is racist
đ„NEW: Stephen A. Smith: âI would give anything to be able to say something definitively in Karmelo Anthonyâs defense. If there was a shred of innocence to the incident itself, I would say so. I donât want to see another black young man going to jail.â
âBut I donât give a d*mn about what your race or ethnicity is. Just because youâre white and young doesnât mean you deserve to be m*rdered. And just because youâre black and young ⊠doesnât give you a license to m*rder someone.â
âThatâs what happened.â
This bringing back SAT is going to be good for secondary curriculum too because reading and knowledge building will get renewed focus vs the âmake a Canva and talk to the class for 10 minsâ classwork
My CA daughter didnât get into any top UCs but did get into all of the top out of state universities she applied to. Messed up system considering I paid taxes all these years to support UCs.
W. Burlette Carter went to Harvard Law School and is now Professor Emerita ar George Washington University Law School.
She apparently believes that a "jury of your peers" means that Karmelo Anthony was entitled to a jury of black teenagers.
She also admits she hasn't even read the transcript so she gets basic facts wrong about the case.
One of the coaches testified that he put Austin Metcalf in charge of watching over the tent.
Additionally, self defense requires proportional force.
A light shove, in which you don't claim you feared for your life, does not allow you to use deadly force.
How did this woman get accepted to Harvard Law?
How is she now teaching at GW Law?
Ro Khanna is worth more than the GDP of Tuvalu and Nauru combined. Thatâs two whole countries.
Ro Khanna could pay the tuition for thousands of underprivileged students, or fund social programs out of his own pocket, but he doesnât.
Funny how people like Ro Khanna and Bernie Sanders always talk about how millionaires and billionaires could solve all these problems by forcing them to pay more in taxes, but they must not think donating millions of their own money to help fix those problems will make a difference.
NEW: Last week, Seattle Marxist Mayor Katie Wilson claimed she "broke her boycott" & went to the Pike Place Starbucks
However, that location has been closed for renovations for weeks & only reopened today.
Her office won't say what day she went. She did not post pictures from socials. SPD won't disclose when her protection detail took her there. In the interview, she refused to say she supported the company
Did she actually go?
