   Liberal Democrats, too lazy and stupid to compete   
   scholastically. This is the result of the present day inferior   
   California school system, once the envy of the entire free   
   world, after 40 years of Democrat control and parasitic   
   socialist union infestation.

   A TV series based on the recent college admissions scandal is in   
   the works, Variety has confirmed.   
      
   Annapurna Television has optioned the rights to the upcoming   
   book “Accepted” by Melissa Korn and Jennifer Levitz. The book is   
   set to be published by Portfolio, a division of Penguin Random   
   House. Sue Naegle, Ali Krug, and Patrick Chu will produce on   
   behalf of Annapurna Television.   
      
   D.V. DeVincentis will adapt the book for television. DeVicentis’   
   previous credits include writing multiple episodes of “The   
   People v. OJ Simpson” and the features films “High Fidelity” and   
   “Grosse Pointe Blank.” He is repped by UTA, Management 360 and   
   Morris Yorn. Korn and Levitz are repped Fletcher & Company and   
   LGNAF.   
      
   Back in March, nearly three dozen people were indicted by the   
   FBI for their part in the scandal, which saw parents paying   
   large sums of money to secure their childrens’ placement in top   
   schools. Tactics included creating fake athletic backgrounds for   
   students and either paying someone else to take the SATs in a   
   student’s place or bribing test administrators to correct   
   answers after the fact.   
      
   The parents charged in the case include CEOs, real estate   
   investors, the co-chair of a global law firm, and actresses Lori   
   Loughlin and Felicity Huffman. The children gained admission to   
   Yale University, Georgetown University, Stanford University,   
   UCLA and USC. At the center of the case is William “Rick”   
   Singer, 58, who ran Edge College & Career Network LLC, also   
   known as “The Key,” a for-profit college admissions consulting   
   firm. Singer, who is based in Newport Beach, Calif., is also   
   alleged to have set up the Key Worldwide Foundation, a fake   
   charity designed to receive bribe payments.
