A score north of 50 indicates adversity; below that threshold lies privilege. Colleges will see this number, but students will not.College Board will add adversity score for everyone taking the SAT — Among the factors that would go into the adversity index are some that are economic (proportion of students at a school who are eligible for free or reduced lunch), that reflect economic challenges (housing instability) and educational status (percentage of students who go on to college). A score would be on a scale up to 100.Four Reasons The College Board's New Adversity Score Is A Bad Idea — What should we make of the new SAT adversity score? Will it increase fairness in college admissions? Will it help increase the diversity of enrollments? Or will it backfire, adding to Americans’ skepticism about the fairness of college admissions?

Dan Crenshaw (R-TX) was a Nazi and told the former Navy SEAL that he should be \"ashamed\" of his military service. The congressman's response to the young man was direct and memorable.Why Modern Liberalism Is Fascism In Disguise — But behind this ideology, lies a secret, hidden intolerance of which most are unaware. It’s not so much in what modern liberalism seeks to accomplish that is the problem. It is how it tries to make those changes. In fact, if people truly saw what this worldview meant… I think they would be appalled and abandon the system.Understanding ‘isms’ — Central to Nazi philosophy (and Communist philosophy) was their demand to “break the shackles of finance capital.” Expanding on this demand, the Nazis outlined that every citizen must productively work and their labour must benefit the whole community.LIBERALS and NAZIS — We combat the … materialistic spirit within and without us, and are convinced that a permanent recovery of our people can only proceed from within on the foundation of the common good before the individual good.\"\r\n\r\nMYTH BUSTED: Actually, Yes, Hitler Was a Socialist Liberal » Louder With Crowder — What does National Socialist German Worker’s Party mean? Glad you asked. Is it different from “Democratic socialism”? Only in semantics. A Democracy is mob rule, which is why America is actually a constitutional, representative republic, NOT a democracy. A representative republic protects the minority from the majority, whereas a democracy is the rule of the majority.Nazi Party - Summary \u0026amp; Facts about The German Nazi Party — In an effort to modify the philosophy of socialism, Hitler placed the word “National” in front of the word “Socialist”, saying that he was only agreeable to equality for those born with “German blood”. Others, known as “Jews and aliens” would no longer enjoy citizenship and non-Germans would no longer be allowed to immigrate into Germany.","content_html":"\u003cp\u003eWelcome to The Schmidt Show\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhat is Nazism?

Trump faces conservative opposition to family leave program. — “The biggest concern is the potential explosion of the program over time, and then having a federal program be the one source that everyone has to go to would not serve workers well,” Heritage Foundation research fellow Rachel Greszler told the Washington Examiner. “They would be far better off having a more tailored policy through their employer.”Trump’s Paid Family Leave Plan: What It Is, and What It Isn’t — The White House proposes a “fully paid-for” plan which, unlike recent proposals by Sen. Marco Rubio and Ivanka Trump, is not funded by shifted social security benefits. Rather, the plan is to be funded – in conjunction with state governments – through the unemployment insurance regime. Thus, it is still a “big government” plan, but not as much a big, federal government plan.Rubio rolls out paid parental leave bill — Rubio’s bill would allow new parents to receive early Social Security benefits to use for paid leave, in exchange for delaying the collection of Social Security benefits by about three to six months when they retire.Why the Left Is Consumed With Hate — At the Women’s March in Washington the weekend after Mr. Trump’s inauguration, the pop star Madonna said, “I have thought an awful lot of blowing up the White House.” Here hatred was a vanity, a braggadocio meant to signal her innocence of the sort of evil that, in her mind, the White House represented.Give Back?

If a foreign power can tell America “what we shall do, and what we shall not do,” George Washington once wrote to Alexander Hamilton, “we have Independence yet to seek, and have contended hitherto for very little.”Border Walls Work - American Renaissance — Border walls are surprisingly common. Two-thirds of the world’s people live in countries that protect their borders with a wall or fence. Governments build these barriers because they are an effective way to keep people out.Declaration of Independence, July 4, 1776 — When in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.Farewell Address to the Continental Congress — After eight years of service, and more than two years after Cornwallis’ surrender at Yorktown, George Washington traveled to Annapolis, Maryland, where he formally resigned his commission as commander in chief of the Armies of the nascent United States of America; he delivered these remarks to the Continental Congress on December 23, 1783.The Case for Sovereignty - Jeremy A. Rabkin — This book goes beyond slogans and catchphrases to engage one of the most contested concepts in contemporary international politics: the sovereign rights of nation-states.The Coming War on Sovereignty — While the term “sovereignty” has acquired many, often inconsistent, definitions, Americans have historically understood it to mean our collective right to govern ourselves within our Constitutional framework.

It is an Obama-administration scandal.\r\n\r\nThe Clintons were just doing what the Clintons do: cashing in on their “public service.” The Obama administration, with Secretary Clinton at the forefront but hardly alone, was knowingly compromising American national-security interests.America Uranium in Russia - The New York Times — Rosatom had taken over a Canadian company with uranium-mining stakes stretching from Central Asia to the American West. The deal made Rosatom one of the world’s largest uranium producers and brought Mr. Putin closer to his goal of controlling much of the global uranium supply chain.\r\n\r\nBut the untold story behind that story is one that involves not just the Russian president, but also a former American president and his wife.Russian Nuclear Energy Conquers the World — Russian nuclear energy demonstrated impressive achievements in the global market \"of nuclear services\" in 2012. In this area, Rosatom State Corporation wins competition with major Western companies, even though cooperation in the field of \"peaceful atom\" remains under strong political pressure.Russian Oligarch And Putin Pal Admits To Collusion — Russian Oligarch Oleg Deripaska, a close associate of Vladimir Putin, has gone on record with The Hill's John Solomon - admitting to colluding with Americans leading up to the 2016 US election, except it might not be what you're thinking.ICE Arrests in Courtrooms Become Necessity — The reason ICE has to do arrests on the street or in courthouses or other public places is precisely because the anti-border jurisdictions have prevented them from doing it in a safe, controlled environment in the county jails, these sanctuary jurisdictions are creating the very problem they’re complaining about.South Africa is in a Mess and Little Hope Remains — ...the South African economy is in a mess and diving deeper by the day. On Monday the rating agency Moody’s savagely criticised the finance minister Malusi Gigaba’s recent budget statement, almost certainly heralding a further down-grade of the country’s foreign and local currency – already given junk status by two of the three big rating agencies.Trump Bashing at Funerals is Juvenile — The Trump bashing at the John McCain and Aretha Franklin funerals was monumentally juvenile.\r\nTrump of course contributes to this by his own massive signal-to-noise problem. He doesn’t know how to shut his mouth when he’s ahead. With a roaring economy, he only has himself to blame if the Republicans lose the House in November.California Wants a Woman on Every Board — If the bill is signed into law by California governor Jerry Brown, it would be the first state to take such a step. Unlike some European countries, the United States doesn't mandate female representation on company boards. A majority of companies in the S\u0026amp;P 500 have at least one woman on their boards, but only 25% have more than two, according to a study from PwC.","content_html":"\u003cp\u003eWelcome to The Schmidt Show\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eToday we talk about South Africa and ICE.
