      From: johnny@invalid.net              By Taylor Penley       Published October 12, 2022              Some U.S. federal judges are boycotting future Yale Law graduates for       clerk positions, citing cancel culture concerns.              Trump-appointed U.S. Circuit Judge James Ho spearheaded the boycott at       a Federalist Society conference last month, claiming the institution       "not only tolerates the cancelation of views — it actively practices       it," according to Reuters.              "I don’t want to cancel Yale," Ho told the outlet. "I want Yale to stop       canceling people like me."              Ho invited other judges to join his boycott, and the call led Federal       Appeals Court Judge Elizabeth Branch to announce she would join the       effort in an Oct. 7 statement to National Review.              "My friend, Judge Jim Ho, recently raised legitimate concerns about the       lack of free speech on law school campuses, Yale in particular," she       said.              "Like Judge Ho, I am gravely concerned that the stifling of debate not       only is antithetical to this country’s founding principles, but also       stunts intellectual growth. Accordingly, I accept Judge Ho’s invitation       to join him in declining to consider students from Yale Law School for       clerkships with me,...              https://www.foxnews.com/media/federal-judges-boycott-yale-law-cl       rks-cancel-culture-free-speech-issues              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
