Federal judges join boycott on hiring Yale Law clerks over plague of 'cancel culture'
Fox News
Two federal judges have publicly said they will not hire clerks from Yale Law School because of the school's pervasive “cancel culture."
Ho, who sits on the New Orleans-based 5th Circuit, said in a speech delivered at a Federalist Society conference in Kentucky on Sept. 29 that Yale "not only tolerates the cancelation of views — it actively practices it." Ho urged other judges to likewise boycott the school. Sarah Rumpf is a Fox News Digital Production Assistant. You can reach her on Twitter at @rumpfsarahc
"I don't want to cancel Yale," explained Ho. "I want Yale to stop canceling people like me."
"Like Judge Ho, I am gravely concerned that the stifling of debate not only is antithetical to this country’s founding principles, but also stunts intellectual growth," explained Branch in a statement to National Review. "Accordingly, I accept Judge Ho’s invitation to join him in declining to consider students from Yale Law School for clerkships with me, with an exception for past and current students."
