The Wall Street Journal editorial board is slamming Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) for signing a sweeping mandatory E-Verify bill into law that prevents industries across the state from hiring illegal aliens over Americans and legal immigrants.

As Breitbart News reported in May, Florida became the largest state in the nation to require all employers with 25 or more employees to screen its workforce through the federal government’s E-Verify system — ensuring that all new hires are legally residing in the United States.

“How are states with E-Verify getting these jobs filled? Somehow, they’re doing it,” Jeremy Beck of NumbersUSA told Breitbart News.

Editors at the Wall Street Journal, the most notorious prolific mouthpiece for corporate special interests, published a piece that suggests Florida’s economy faces near collapse because of mandatory E-Verify.

In the article, titled, “Ketanji Brown Jackson's ancestors were enslaved. Her husband's were enslavers,” the enslaved ancestors of the Justice and slave owning ancestors of her husband were revealed.

“When John Greene, believed to be an ancestor of Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, got off a schooner from Trinidad in Charleston, S.C., he was immediately enslaved and dispatched to a plantation, according to family lore. When John Howland, the 10th-great-grandfather of Jackson's husband, Patrick Jackson, disembarked the Mayflower at Plymouth, Mass., he was given housing and several acres,” The Washington Post wrote.

The Post continued to lay out the couple’s parallel histories dating back over 100 years.

“Ketanji Brown Jackson, one of the country's nine most powerful legal arbiters, tracks her family history through generations of enslavement and coercive sharecropping. Patrick Jackson, a gastrointestinal surgeon in D.C., counts among his ancestors King Edward I of England, four Mayflower passengers and a signer of the U.S. Constitution.”

The paper cited Christopher C. Child, senior genealogist with the New England Historic Genealogical Society in Boston, who found that Patrick Jackson’s “great-great-great-great grandfather Peter Chardon Brooks was the richest man in New England when he died, having made his fortune insuring ships, including some involved in the slave trade.”

In addition, the article explained, “Patrick was raised outside Boston, but his maternal grandfather's ancestors lived in the South. Based on public slave schedules from 1850 and 1860, Child estimates the family owned about 189 enslaved people at the time. ‘Every male ancestor of Patrick's maternal grandfather over the age of 21 alive in 1850 or 1860 was a slaveowner,' Child said. One of his ancestors was also a Confederate soldier.”

People often associate affirmative action with efforts to end discrimination for people of color. But scholars say the greatest beneficiaries of affirmative action policies are white women, from college campuses to the American workplace.

White women today are more educated and make up a bigger slice of the workforce as a result of decades of affirmative action policies, scholars say. White women have also made inroads into corporate leadership that people of color and women of color have not.

The Supreme Court on Thursday struck down affirmative action admissions policies used by Harvard College and the University of North Carolina to build diversity on their campuses. Legal observers say that decision will have huge consequences for higher education and could have significant ripple effects for corporate diversity programs.

...

Half of Americans do not approve of colleges and universities considering race in admissions, according to a recent Pew Research Center report. A majority of white adults disapprove of it, too. About 70% of non-Hispanic white women somewhat or strongly oppose affirmative action, according to a 2014 Cooperative Congressional Election Study.

He means business.

Anthony Edwards sent a PSA to women interested in him after agreeing to a five-year, $260 million max contract extension with the Minnesota Timberwolves.

While in bed with his girlfriend, Jeanine Robel, the All-Star guard said she’s the “only one” who will be reaping the benefits of his massive payday.

“All you females who think you gonna come up off a n—- from signing a contract, she the only one,” Edwards said, before panning the camera to his Robel.

The 21-year-old then put the camera on his dog, and joked, “No, her.”

That’s when Robel said, “Boy, don’t lie.”

“She the only one that’s coming up,” Edwards continued. “[She’s] new to the table, so I’m a little green for her.

“Everybody else, the light is the same color as my damn jacket [red]… Feel me?”
