Civil Rights Battles Of The 1960s, Back Again.

When the Supreme Court issued its school desegregation decisions in the 1950s, some people disagreed. Gov. Orval Faubus swore to use the Arkansas National Guard and “stand in the schoolhouse door” at Central High School in Little Rock. He didn’t want Blacks in the school. But he was dealing with President Eisenhower, who had commanded the entire European Theater in World War II. Ike federalized the Guard and sent his own general to command it. Then he sent units of the 101st Airborne from Fort Campbell, Kentucky. No one was stupid enough to stand in their way.

Some things have changed.  The White House is occupied not by a 5-star general who respected the Constitution, but by a man who gives dementia a bad name. But some things haven’t changed. Our universities are again occupied (in both senses of the word) by racists. This time it’s Jews they won’t let on the campus, but it’s the same idea: We decide who gets an education, based on irrelevant criteria of skin pigment or ethnic background. And we dare you to do anything about it.

But note that this threat to our liberty comes not from that awful Donald Trump and his crazed MAGA extremists, but from good old Uncle Joe Biden and his leftist buddies here and in the Middle East. We’ll remember in November.
