Federal Judge Will No Longer Hire Law Clerks from Yale Law School: “No Space for Students Trained in Anti-American Anti-freedom Principle”

‘Yale not only tolerates the cancellation of views — it actively practices it,’ Judge James C. Ho said.

Judge James C. Ho of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit announced Thursday that he would no longer be hiring law clerks from Yale Law School and urged other judges to follow suit. In a keynote address to the Kentucky Chapters Conference of the Federalist Society, titled “Agreeing to Disagree — Restoring America by Resisting Cancel Culture,” Ho cited a number of high-profile examples of speakers being shouted down or otherwise censored at law schools across the country but singled out Yale Law as “one particular law school where cancellations and disruptions seem to occur with special frequency.”

Sorry Yale But Federal Judges Don’t Want Your Liberal Students- Mass Rejection

By: Daphne Moon, Patriot Chronicles, October 5, 2022:

Law students going to Yale are going to find it a little harder getting a job as Federal judges unite to reject receiving new hires from the ultra-liberal school of law. In a massive letter of rejection Judge James C. Ho of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit explains how the court has no space for students trained in anti-American anti-freedom principles.

“Yale not only tolerates the cancellation of views — it actively practices it,” Ho said, according to prepared remarks exclusively obtained by National Review. “Starting today, I will no longer hire law clerks from Yale Law School. And I hope that other judges will join me as well.”

“Cancel culture now plagues a wide variety of institutions. I’ve written judicial opinions noting how cancel culture has infected our educational institutions, the legal profession, corporate America, and public health — and how even the criminal justice system has been weaponized to cancel disfavored political viewpoints. Cancel culture is also deeply embedded in journalism, entertainment, sports, and the arts.

The consequences for America are significant. I would contend that cancel culture is one of the leading reasons why citizens no longer trust a wide variety of once-leading institutions. It turns out that, when elite institutions make clear that people who think like you and me shouldn’t even exist, we return the favor.”

Ho gave an hour and a half speech where he demolished the ‘woke’ school, according to the outlet. Free Beacon noted that a dozen federal judges say they are no longer hiring clerks from Yale Law School, citing a slew of scandals that they say have undermined free speech and intellectual diversity.

“Students should be mindful that they will face diminished opportunities if they go to Yale,” said a prominent circuit court judge, whose clerks have gone on to nab Supreme Court clerkships. “I have no confidence that they’re being taught anything.”

I guess they’ll have to find other means on paying back all those student loans—Or at least the portion that Biden can’t force taxpayers to cover.
