The Oregon Department of Education is promoting a program for teachers that seeks to “disman[tle] racism in mathematics,” alleging that focusing on finding the right answer is a symbol of white supremacy. Fox News reported that the ODE sent out a newsletter last week that mentions a “Pathway to Math Equity Micro-Course” that will occur on February 21. The course, according to Fox, is designed for middle school teachers to make use of a toolkit for ‘dismantling racism in mathematics.’” The newsletter encourages teachers to sign up for the training, which the New York Post previously reported includes a section...

hope of ever turning things around no matter how hard you try? Right now, there are millions upon millions of Americans that have been emotionally crushed by this economic downturn, and many of them have completely lost all hope. Those around them may be telling them to “hang in there”, but month after month goes by and nothing ever seems to get better. For a moment, I would like for you to consider a scenario. Imagine that you own a successful small restaurant somewhere in the country. Despite the odds, the restaurant has been successful enough over the years for...

OAKLAND - California Democrats are suddenly waking up to a nightmarish reality that in their solidly-blue state, a small but determined band of GOP activists may soon qualify a recall that puts Gov. Gavin Newsom’s future in doubt. Alarmed party leaders, facing the threat of a chaotic and expensive election by the end of this year, have begun to issue “all hands on deck” calls. But it may already be too late to convince the disorderly Democratic ranks to put aside their political differences - and in some cases, ambitions - and stand in unity with their embattled governor. “Every...

Portland police say officers “remained out of sight as much as possible” after being pelted with snowballs by protesters, who would go on to damage multiple businesses after the police retreat. Portland, Oregon continues to deal with protests turning violent, even though police are bending over backward to stay out of sight – according to the latest police statements on Friday’s violent protest. Despite heavy snowfall, 30 to 50 protesters marched on Friday night to the Central Precinct, according to the Portland Police Department. The demonstrators proceeded to throw snowballs at police vehicles and then at officers when they left...

SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON - CAPTAIN NOAH AND HIS WONDERFUL SHIP MORNING WORSHIP - OUR FAITH’S FIRM FOUNDATION - SUNDAY EVENING MESSAGE - SATAN'S ATTACK ON OUR MINDS

A first-of-its-kind study, involving over 25,000 children, reveals that masks are harming schoolchildren in many physical and psychological ways and have a negative effect on their behavior, focus and interest in learning. These negative effects are censored from social media, under-reported by the media, and ignored by government officials. Of the 25,930 children studied, the database includes at least 17,854 health complaints submitted by parents. These health issues and impairments were observed in approximately 68 percent of masked schoolchildren who were forced to wear a face covering for an average of four and a half hours per day. Prolonged, forced,...

On the eve of the Presidential election, then-candidate Joe Biden spoke at a union hall in Pittsburgh and promised to be “the most pro-union president you’ve ever seen.” Such lofty promises weren’t surprising, coming from Biden. Once again, the rehashing of the tired blue-collar Joe Biden myth begins.

A few days ago, an email from Zahra Takhshid (granddaughter of Mohammad Yazdi, former head of the Islamic Republic's judiciary) was sent to some people, and I was one of the recipients. In this e-mail, a plan for the Islamization of information technologies in the field of law, especially sharia, was proposed. This is apparently the research project of Takhshid as one of the lecturers at Harvard Law School. Harvard University, which once trained members of the U.S. Supreme Court, is at one of its lowest points today, where the Islamicization of the internet and information technology has been promoted...

Former Gov. Pataki thinks New Yorkers should take a hard look at recalling Gov. Cuomo over the “reprehensible” cover-up of nursing home deaths. On Thursday, Cuomo’s top aide, Melissa DeRosa, admitted to lawmakers that her boss concealed data about the coronavirus death toll among nursing-home residents to avoid having to share it with the federal government. Even before The Post exposed that scandal this week, roughly 40% of New Yorkers said they would favor a recall effort to oust the three-term incumbent if a recall mechanism existed in the Empire State. “I think it would be appropriate to take a...

In recent months, the hatred of Fox News from the left has been almost matched by trending memes – from the right! Examples include (to paraphrase) “Fox News has turned left.” “Fox News is being run by Disney.” “The woke wives of the Murdoch sons are running Fox.” “RINO Paul Ryan is running Fox News from his seat on the company’s board of directors.” And so on. All of that is false. Total BS. How do I know? Unlike most of the new anti-Fox critics, I actually watch the Fox News Channel (FNC). I take notes. I have monitored the...

Nicholas Winton was a British banker and humanitarian who established an organisation to rescue children at risk from Nazi Germany. Born to German-Jewish parents who had emigrated to Britain at the beginning of the 20th century, Winton supervised the rescue of 669 children, most of them Jewish, from Czechoslovakia on the eve of World War II. *snip* His work went unnoticed by the world for nearly 50 years, until 1988 when he was invited to the BBC television programme That's Life!, where he was reunited with several of the children he had saved.

The Bachelor host Chris Harrison has announced he will no longer appear in the TV special and said he is 'deeply remorseful' for 'excusing historical racism' after he defended a contestant who attended a plantation-themed ball. Harrison, who has hosted the ABC reality television dating show since 2002, issued a statement on his Instagram Saturday saying he is 'ashamed' of the 'pain' he has caused to people of color and that he is committed to 'evolve and be a better man.' He will also be 'stepping aside' from the show and will not feature in the After the Final Rose...

In times of turmoil, is toxic, heated rhetoric emanating from the White House justifiable?"They bring a knife – we bring a gun.""I want you to argue with them and get in their face!""I don't want to quell anger. I think people are right to be angry! I'm angry!""Hit back twice as hard.""We talk to these folks… so I know whose ass to kick.""The other party's victory would mean hand to hand combat.""Punish your enemies.""I'm itching for a fight."Such combative political discourse must have been from Donald Trump, right? Except, Trump didn't say any of the above. Barack Obama did when...
