Inoue vs. Stossel: “People Like You…”
For decades – and certainly since I was in college and graduate school in the early 1970s – higher education in America has had an attachment to Marxism and derivative ideologies. Since the turn of the century, this infatuation has been blended with a critique of capitalism as inherently racist, classist, sexist, and transphobic.
I’ve written about that before. And if you’ve had any contact with American colleges and universities, this isn’t news to you. But what you may not know is that capitalism is now being criticized for the racist/sexist/whatever effort to teach college kids how to write and speak in Standard English.
Here’s a discussion on this crazy debate between John Stossel and Professor Asao Inoue, an Asian-American professor from Arizona State who argues that teachers should accept, and even encourage, ungrammatical English!

More on the Hunter Biden Laptop Story
(Facts You Can Neither Deny nor Ignore)
I’m sure you remember that, during the 2020 election, the New York Post came out with a story about how Hunter Biden was doing all sorts of questionable deals in Russia, the Ukraine, and China. And that proof was on his laptop, which had mysteriously disappeared.
This was, for a few seconds, front page news in the mainstream media. But do you also remember that, soon after the story broke, 50 former intelligence officials signed a public letter claiming that what is now known as “The Hunter Biden Laptop Story” was “Russian disinformation”?
That letter was widely believed, and discredited the New York Post and the story. Since then, however, the facts have been leaking out. And now, just about everyone, including the media that published that Russian-propaganda misinformation, is admitting that the laptop story is true.
Yes, the laptop was real. And it was turned over to the Justice Department, which wouldn’t release it or even admit it had it. But there was another copy that was turned over to a Republican senator and released to the press. And after seeing it, even the NYT admitted it was legit.
Since then, the liberal media went quiet on the story. But information keeps piling up. The latest: Former Deputy Director of the CIA Michael Morrell testified to the House Judiciary Committee that he was ordered to orchestrate the letter in the fall of 2020 by Antony Blinken, who at the time was a senior campaign adviser to Joe Biden.
That’s crazy, right?
And here’s something more: Several of the signatories of that disinformation were rewarded afterward with Biden administration jobs.
From The Daily Caller:
“Jeremy Bash, a former chief of staff for the CIA, was the one who put Morrell in touch with Biden’s campaign chairman Steve Ricchetti, who personally thanked Morrell for facilitating the letter’s creation. Bash was then appointed to Biden’s Intelligence Advisory Board. Two of the letter’s other signatories, Russell Travers and Nicholas Rasmussen, were appointed to the Biden Administration as Deputy Homeland Security Advisor and Counterterrorism Coordinator for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), respectively….
“In his testimony, written under oath, Morrell confessed that the purpose of the letter was ‘to help Vice President Biden’ in the 2020 election. Although there may not be any grounds for criminal charges, the revelation nevertheless reflects even further corruption and political bias within the American intelligence community in favor of Democrats. Blinken’s role in the scandal also seems to suggest that he was given his position as Secretary of State as a reward for orchestrating the letter in the first place.”
