that the federal courts will not be asked to decided whether a particular book is appropriate for the library of a private school. But I suppose he'll go make a stink at his kids' school and demand that they remove the book - all on camera, probably, for the delectation of the MAGAts.

My older two children went to St. John's. I was at a college event for one of my kids and the facility at St. John's bragged about rejecting George W. Bush and Jeb Bush because they were too stupid to cut it at this school. This is in front of the Yale dean of admissions who admitted that W and Jeb were admitted as legacies.
