Judge: You can't ban DEI grants without bothering to define DEI (arstechnica.com)

They should just double down on banning grants with racist/sexist/etc application... which was always illegal anyway, everybody just looked the other way. That would get rid of the objectionable parts of DEI.

It doesn't work at all, Potter Stewart wasn't stupid or uninformed about what a secular republic is, so he was acting in bad faith to push for personal discretion definitions that will mostly be performed by people in the majority faith.

Well that too, but I guess my point is that it works even less now.
