Alejandra Caraballo, a clinical instructor at Harvard Law School’s Cyberlaw Clinic, has joined the large cadre of fools who seem to seriously believe former President Donald Trump has a strong similarity to Adolf Hitler. After the assassination attempt on July 13, Caraballo posted on Twitter/”X”: “Trump is going to use this as his Reichstag moment to crack down when he’s elected.” See?

What a sage and perceptive prediction! And what makes Carabello so certain that this is going to happen? Your guess is as good as mine. Insanity? A brain tumor? How exactly would Trump accomplish this? Who would tolerate it? Why is someone so devoid of critical thinking skills and prone to make such hysterical pronouncements allowed, not just allowed but paid, to teach anyone anything at all, never mind at Harvard Law School?

Actually the reason is clear: she’s trans, see, so that makes up for any other deficiencies. She’s an LBGTQ-obsessed fanatic, but DEI mania holds that this rarefied niche advances diversity, never mind the fact that she has to be bonkers to really believe such fantasies, just as Harvard is bonkers to let her have any influence at all over its students.

Back in April, I offered the suggestion that some people with law licenses are demonstrably too stupid to be trusted by clients. There is nothing in the disciplinary rules governing the minimal ethics requirements of lawyers that mention basic, personal intellectual competence as a mandatory component of professional, legal competence, and there should be. That post was prompted by The View’s resident racist lawyer Sunny Hostin suggesting on the air that solar eclipses were caused by climate change.

“One cannot be a trustworthy lawyer without minimal critical thinking skills,” I wrote. “When a lawyer demonstrates such a deficit beyond a shadow of a doubt, that ought to be considered a legitimate reason for disbarment.”

I’m willing to concede that Caraballo’s Trump-Deranged tweet doesn’t quite reach the Olympian heights of cretinism displayed by Hostin, but I still maintain that nobody who believes such nonsense can be trusted with a client’s welfare and interests. If she doesn’t believe what she says Trump WILL do, she is deliberately issuing lies in public, conduct that also indicates a lack of fitness to practice law.

Of course, it might be that stupidity is the diverse quality Harvard seeks by employing Caraballo. From what we’ve seen in Cambridge recently, I’d say Harvard has that category more than adequately covered without her.
