JD Vance: "Nobody is talking about doing immigration enforcement without a warrant. We're talking about different types of warrants that exist in our system. Typically in the immigration system, those are handled by administrative law judges. So we're talking about getting warrants from them."
Thinking about J.D. Vance and Vivek Ramaswamy (possibly an ill-advised notion) has anyone fully mapped out how many of Amy Chua's protégés are now in positions of significant power?

christ I didn't realize ramaswamy was also a chua mentee
One of the reasons Chua annoys me so much is that I had people (INCLUDING DURING THE LAW PROF HIRING CYCLE) ask me if my mom was a “tiger mom” like Amy Chua.
My mom was NOTHING like Amy Chua, we did not remotely have the same resources, and I will put my mom’s results up against Chua’s any time.
The fact that so much coverage presented it as “secret Asian childrearing techniques produce success”, rather than the simpler answer of “a Yale professor married to a Yale professor had children who had the opportunity to succeed” says nothing good about the media.
