In the wake of a Johns Hopkins diversity officer's distribution of a "monthly diversity digest" email labelling white people, Christians, and men as "privileged," one Republican lawmaker is mulling funding cuts for medical schools pushing such concepts.

Earlier this month, Dr. Sherita Hill Golden's email outlining allegedly "privileged" groups attracted went viral and prompted her to retract it in short order. The episode has since contributed to the growing public scrutiny of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion initiatives in higher education.

Appearing Monday on the "John Solomon Reports" podcast, Maryland GOP Rep. Andy Harris, who received his MD from Johns Hopkins, fumed over the contents of the email and dismissed the university's response as mere "window dressing."

By means of shrewd lies, unremittingly repeated, it is possible to make people believe that heaven is hell - and hell heaven. The greater the lie, the more readily it will be believed.

The receptivity of the masses is very limited, their intelligence is small, but their power of forgetting is enormous. In consequence of these facts, all effective propaganda must be limited to a very few points and must harp on these in slogans until the last member of the public understands what you want him to understand by your slogan.

I'm having spinal surgery in two weeks and if I thought for one second the surgeon's major qualification was the color of his skin, I'd chose to suffer with what I have than risk having it made worse. :thumbsdown:

DEI = white males need not apply
