   Supreme Court omen from Gail Heriot:

   “ARACHNOPHOBIA: I woke up at a ridiculous hour this morning so I could be ready in case the Supreme Court’s decision in the Harvard/UNC cases was announced. I have a whole list of things I need to do once the cases are decided, starting with ‘read the decision carefully.’

   I dutifully logged on to SCOTUSblog on my iPad and the Supreme Court website on my Mac. Then I hit nervously refresh, refresh, refresh until it was clear that there were no more opinions for today.

   But when I reached for my coffee, there was a giant spider (well … a medium-sized spider) in it. It was dead, drowned. It was an ex-spider, a no-longer-a-threat-to-all-that-is-good-and-holy spider. But is this a sinister omen? A benign one? Or just one more dead arachnid?”

     @coolboymew Oops, should have mentioned these are the cases where Asians have sued Harvard (and the University of North Carolina) for in the case of Harvard utterly blatant admissions bias. Which of course is the angle Jews used to capture Harvard et. al. back in the day.

     If the court rules against them, this will cause serious real pain to Harvard, especially since a likely remedy will include supervision of their admissions policy for some time.

     And who knows what else, although my preferred remedy that starts with bulldozing Harvard Yard except for the libraries and I suppose church, and sowing the ground with radioactive salt is probably not on the table.

     Might also cause some other institutions pain, although we know they’ll do everything to DEI even if officially forbidden.
