| Liberty Unyielding via Instapundit "Last year, Sandia National Laboratories — which designs America’s nuclear weapons — hosted a" segregated "3-day reeducation camp for ’white males,’ with the goal of exposing their ’white privilege’ and deconstructing ’white male culture.'" So reports the Manhattan Institute’s Christopher Rufo. "Last year, the national laboratory sent its white male executives to the La Posada luxury resort to undergo a mandatory training called ’White Men’s Caucus on Eliminating Racism, Sexism, and Homophobia in Organizations.'" In the opening session, trainers demanded that the men make a list of associations about white male culture. The trainers wrote "white supremacists," "KKK," "Aryan Nation," "MAGA hat," "privileged," and "mass killings." ...In a subsequent session, the white males were forced to publicly recite a series of "white privilege statements" and "male privilege statements." They had to accept their alleged complicity in creating oppression of women and people of color. At the end of the training, the white males had to "write letters ’directed to white women, people of color, and other groups'" in which they "apologize for their ’privilege.'" ..."You must work with HR to hire on the basis of skin color" is apparently one message of this training. And then you wonder why Chinese are so confident |

| #2 /\ Their must be countless redundancies. Agreed, cut them. Meanwhile, as the US commits economic & societal suicide, China will be more than happy to step in and become "number one". |

| #1 The National Labs were set up back in the 40s and 50s. It was recognized that you couldn't draw talent at government employee wages, so in effect, this was contracted out. It was for national defense. Since then your DoD has down sized significantly. The Army alone had over a million in uniform. Today its under 500,000. Bases have been closed and realigned. However, we still have the same number of National Labs as we did back then. As NATO is just welfare for first world nations, the National Labs are welfare for the 'gifted'. New Mexico has two (something about others worried about NIMBY). Time to realign and close several of them. They were transferred from DoD to the Department of Energy when it was created during the Oil Crisis of the 70s. There's no oil crisis anymore and not due to anything that DoE did. Time to cut, cut, cut. |
