Re: The Shining City Upon a Hill
Joe is trying hard to get rid of KamalaToe. But the Supreme Court? She's too dumb for that. C'mon, Joe.
If she is, in fact, nominated and confirmed, Harris would likely be the first Justice to have failed the Bar exam, the entrance exam to the practice of law.
confirmed by fact-checkers, such as USA Today. The New York Times noted
Supreme Court legend Benjamin Cardozo was said to have failed the Bar exam, but that turned out to be an urban legend.

(CNN)President Joe Biden on Tuesday signed into law four bills aimed at supporting the nation's veterans, including legislation intended to combat racial disparities related to benefits as well as addressing maternal mortality among female veterans.
"We have many obligations, but we only have one truly sacred obligation, in my view. And that is prepare those we send into harm's way, care for their families when they're gone and care for them and their families when they're home," Biden said at the bill signing event. "And that's a lifetime commitment."Comment

... using Fox News, a biased news organization, reflects your inability to put aside your own personal bias and make an honest effort to understand what CRT is.
I prefer the definition and description supplied by the American Bar Association.
A Lesson on Critical Race Theory

A Lesson on Critical Race Theory
CRT is not a diversity and inclusion “training” but a practice of interrogating the role of race and racism in society that emerged in the legal academy and spread to other fields of scholarship. Crenshaw—who coined the term “CRT”—notes that CRT is not a noun, but a verb. It cannot be confined to a static and narrow definition but is considered to be an evolving and malleable practice. It critiques how the social construction of race and institutionalized racism perpetuate a racial caste system that relegates people of color to the bottom tiers. CRT also recognizes that race intersects with other identities, including sexuality, gender identity, and others. CRT recognizes that racism is not a bygone relic of the past. Instead, it acknowledges that the legacy of slavery, segregation, and the imposition of second-class citizenship on Black Americans and other people of color continue to permeate the social fabric of this nation.
CRT grew from Critical Legal Studies (CLS), which argued that the law was not objective or apolitical.
Some of the most compelling demonstrations of how racism has been replicated through systems is within the education system.
Segregated schooling is a particularly profound and timely demonstration of the persistence of systemic racism in education.
School funding inequities are exemplified in many racially and socioeconomically isolated districts, such as Detroit’s public schools.
Consequently, in 2000, the ratio of Black students to white students in Detroit’s public schools was 91 to 4. The city’s racially isolated public schools are also profoundly under-resourced.
Another important consideration is that many of our nation’s systems and structures—including the legal system—were created when people of color were denied full participation in American society. Therefore, as many critical race theorists have noted, CRT calls for a radical reordering of society and a reckoning with the structures and systems that intersect to perpetuate racial inequality.
Like any other approach, CRT can be misunderstood and misapplied. It has been distorted and attacked. And it continues to change and evolve. The hope in CRT is in its recognition that the same policies, structures, and scholarship that can function to disenfranchise and oppress so many also holds the potential to emancipate and empower many. It provides a lens through which the civil rights lawyer can imagine a more just nation.Comment
