\"\"<\/p>\n

After efforts to strip him of his honorary degrees and a call for him to resign from his law school faculty, Attorney General Bill Barr’s high school is now entering the debate over whether to tear him down like the walking Confederate statue he kind of is.<\/p>\n

The Horace Mann school is holding a Zoom call today to discuss striking Barr from its list of distinguished alumni. Class of 2020 students Kiara Royer and Jessica Rosberger started a petition<\/a> to get the school to make the move and quickly garnered over 8,000 signatures. Sources told the NY Post<\/a> that it’s touched off a big debate within the alumni committee.<\/p>\n

Barr received the Award for Distinguished Achievement in 2011 despite his primary achievement to that date being his successful effort to cover up the Iran-Contra scandal. Per the Post:<\/p>\n

\n

Alums decrying Barr is nothing new. Since 1991, a Horace Mann peer of his, Jimmy Lohman, now an attorney, has been publicly accusing the AG of being a racist who bullied him at school because he supported civil rights.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

 <\/div>\n

That totally tracks.<\/p>\n
