Federalist ^ | DECEMBER 28, 2023 | Roy Matthews
Faculty said they felt trapped in an ‘alternate reality’ when trying to navigate the college’s ‘toxic’ DEI environment.. College students attending universities with restrictive speech codes are used to walking on eggshells and keeping their heads down on campus out of fear of committing social suicide or experiencing violence. In the disordered world of contemporary higher education, Jewish students receive limited, if any, support from school administrators amid explicit calls for violence against them, while other students face punishment for banal infractions like rolling a “free speech ball” around campus. But if you are shocked at how students are subject...

Despite what ads for wrinkle cream would have us believe, there's no magic reversal for aging. As the years pass, a certain amount of change is inevitable but not, it turns out, inexorable. Fingers that feel less nimble in doing the normal tasks of life—buttoning a shirt, writing a list—are not doomed to stay that way, new research shows. It also demonstrates that, to some extent, age is just a number. Researchers worked with more than two dozen study participants ages 60 to 83 to understand whether manual dexterity can improve with time. Over six sessions, participants completed a pegboard...

Canadian police have launched a probe into a series of posters that were put up advertising 'whites only moms and tots' sessions for parents who want to 'escape forced diversity and join other proud parents of European children.' The adverts popped up on the streets of Port Coquitlam, British Columbia, last week. They were taken down, and the city's mayor Brad West slammed the 'vile garbage.' According to locals, the posters were seen in Coquitlam Centre shopping mall, local coffee shops, and at bus stops nearby. Some had been partially ripped down. The poster, which caused outrage online, read: 'Are...
 

Montana becomes first state to ban drag reading sessions for children in public schools and libraries after Governor said it is 'wildly inappropriate for little kids to be exposed to sexualized content'

Montana has become the first state to specifically ban people dressed in drag from reading books to children at public schools and libraries. Republican governor Greg Gianforte signed the bill on Monday because he 'believes it's wildly inappropriate for little kids, especially preschoolers and kids in elementary school, to be exposed to sexualized content,' spokesperson Kaitlin Price said. But the law is unique among efforts by states to block drag performances as it does not require a sexual element to a performance for it to be banned. Bills in Florida and Tennessee also appear to try to ban drag reading...

In November 2019 in an exclusive report, The Gateway Pundit uncovered evidence that showed that on Jeff Sessions’ first day in office, he was committed to recusing himself as President Trump’s Attorney General and handing over the Department of Justice to the crooks in the Deep State. The former Senator from Alabama, Jeff Sessions was sworn in as President Trump’s Attorney General on February 9, 2017. His first real day of work was a few days later on Monday, February 12, 2017. Sessions was hardly a day in office before President Trump was set up in the Oval Office by...

A former pastor of the Covenant school has claimed that trans shooter Audrey Hale was receiving counseling sessions with the father of one of her victims. Hale, 28, opened fire at the private school in Nashville on Monday, killing three children and three staff members. Ex-pastor at the school Jim Bachmann has now claimed that she was receiving private sessions from the current pastor of the school – Chad Scruggs. His daughter, Hallie, 9, was one of the children gunned down in the brutal attack, and police still say they still do not have an official motive for the incident....

UK Daily Mail ^ | March 20, 2023 | Emma Powell and Owen Tonks
His adaptation of A Christmas Carol portrayed Ebenezer Scrooge as a molested schoolboy who grew up to force Tiny Tim’s mother into prostitution. So perhaps it’s no surprise that Steven Knight’s BBC1 version of Great Expectations turns Miss Havisham, played by Olivia Colman, into an opium addict and shows an ecstatic Mr Pumblechook being spanked in a dingy bedroom. He has also included references to the British Empire’s connections to the slave trade, with several characters hammering home an anti-colonial message.

CWB Chicago ^ | December 20, 2022 | Anonymous
In an email to the county’s judges on Tuesday, Chief Judge Timothy Evans acknowledged that “in the last week, many of you have been ‘Zoom Bombed’ with a video of a person who exposes himself and engages in sexually explicit conduct.” That may be an understatement, based on the graphically described accounts of witnesses CWBChicago acquired through a source. Evans said the Cook County Sheriff’s Police are investigating the incidents. He told judges that “bad actors seem to be using Zoom access information from the court’s website” to “broadcast these egregious acts to the detriment of proper decorum and the...

VIDEOYou want the absolutely EASIEST training in the world in order to make you think you are some sort of rough tough warrior? Then join the Undercover Feds Patriot Front. The main requirement is that you be so absolutely CLUELESS that you don't notice the obvious---that you are being manipulated by fed handlers. The folks conducting the laughably lightweight training sessions in this video are obviously undercover feds, including probably the Golden Retriever, but the poor shmoes being trained have no idea that they are being set up for the big fall in the upcoming October Surprise to be promoted...

Let us hope Governor Ron DeSantis and Florida’s legislature continue to expand laws to protect their citizens from compulsory woke indoctrination. In a recent ruling, The Hon. Mark Walker, chief U.S. district judge for the northern district of Florida, Tallahassee division, granted an injunction against the state of Florida’s “Stop WOKE Act,” which endeavors to protect employees from left-wing critical race theory (CRT) indoctrination intrinsic to the “diversity, inclusion, and equity” (a.k.a., DIE—acronym is based on the chronological order in which the Left created these concepts) training sessions mandated by employers and (usually conducted by) their DIE consultants. The decision...

"Former Smith College administrative employee Jodi Shaw, a white woman, is suing the elite school in federal court for retaliation and racial discrimination including forced participation in humiliating ideological indoctrination sessions. David Pitvorak, who describes himself in his Twitter biography as an “individual rights attorney taking on Critical Race Theory in the courts,” is representing Shaw in the lawsuit. “We allege that Smith forced Shaw to undergo ritual racial humiliation and tasked her with implementing policies that racially segregated and discriminated against students,” Pitvorak tweeted. The 101-page lawsuit was filed Dec. 16 in the U.S. District Court for the District...

Read the email reproduced below from Dania Matos, UC Berkeley's new vice Chancellor for Diversity, Equity and Inclusion. And weep. Or laugh.

These wagers were too rich for the Department of Justice’s blood. A Los Angeles County casino was hit with a hefty fine for failing to properly alert financial regulators and the Internal Revenue Service when a “high roller” walked in with $100 million in cash to bet on games of baccarat. Federal prosecutors say the unnamed whale — who was described only as a Chinese national — made over 100 visits to the Bicycle Hotel & Casino over eight months in 2016, often arriving with duffle bags full of cash to bet on marathon sessions of the high-stakes card game.
