    A North Carolina high school student was denied his diploma for wearing a Mexican flag over his graduation gown. Ever Lopez draped a Mexican flag over his blue gown at Asheboro High School's graduation ceremony Thursday night. Livestreamed video footage from the ceremony shows the principal ask him to take the flag off. After an unsuccessful attempt to take it off, he was handed his diploma holder, which the other students also received. But after walking across the stage, he was denied his actual diploma. Lopez told ABC News, "When I got up there I went for the handshake and...

    Dr. Anthony Fauci's new book, Expect the Unexpected: Ten Lessons on Truth, Service, and the Way Forward, recently had its listing removed by Amazon and Barnes & Noble. What we can say with near certainty is that Amazon and Barnes and Noble didn't delist the political left's most marketable saint for the past year because they disagree with the book's content, which undoubtedly touts his wisdom in supporting compulsory masking and distancing, strict government lockdowns, and the suspension of constitutional freedoms as the panacea for national health crises. No. Something really, really big is cooking, and it doesn't bode well...

    Ready for an anti-racist checklist to go with your hot dog? Major League Baseball has gone from a Field of Dreams to a dystopic Field of Nightmares. Coming off the All-Star Game P.R. debacle, where they moved the game out of Atlanta, MLB is upping its radical chic several notches with its latest political advocacy. On the anniversary of George Floyd's death, MLB highlighted its social justice initiatives, which are a series of suggested readings, video viewings, and social justice activities that it recommends people do. Nothing like giving your customers a homework assignment. And they wonder why people find...
  • A Quick, Compelling Bible Study Vol. 64: Parable That Founded the Phrase ‘Good Samaritan’

    Thanks for joining our study. Today we explore the biblical basis for the common phrase “good Samaritan.” Most likely, you have heard the words used to describe someone who unexpectedly helps a stranger in their time of need. However, unless you are a Bible reader, you might not know that the phrase is based on a parable (teaching story) told by Jesus. Therefore, we will read the verses to garner an understanding of the context and broader meaning of the Good Samaritan found only in the Gospel of Luke (10:25-37). The story begins: "On one occasion an expert in the...

    The Louisiana legislature passed SB 118 with veto-proof majorities. The House sent the bill, with amendments to the Senate, after voting for it 73 to 27 on 27 May 2021. Constitutional Carry is a reasonable facsimile of the state of law when the Second Amendment was ratified in 1791. At that time, no state, nor the federal government required any governmental permission to carry arms openly or concealed.The Senate passed the amended bill on 1 June 2021, 27 ayes to 9 nays. SB118 will be sent to Governor Bel Edwards. It was enrolled on 3 June. Governor Edwards has 20...

  • Biden wants to fix the nation's teacher shortage. Educators say the problem is worsening.

    NBC News / Comcast ^ | June 6, 2021 | By Adam Edelman
    [Snip] Included in the American Families Plan's $9 billion to address the teacher shortage is money to train, equip and diversify the nation’s teachers. (The overall price tag on Biden's plan is $1.8 trillion.) The proposed money seeks to increase the number of people who study education and want to enter the field, keep existing teachers from leaving the field and allow existing teachers and professionals from other fields easier and less expensive opportunities to obtain certification for particularly in-demand specialties within teaching. Nearly a third of the $9 billion would go toward creating and expanding “Grow Your Own” programs,...

    I don't mean to say, "I told you so." But ... I told you so. Check the records. Check the archives of my national radio show, "Wayne Allyn Root: Raw & Unfiltered," on USA Radio Network. Check my hundreds of newspaper columns and online commentaries. I said from day one, in early March 2020, as we knew a deadly pandemic was headed our way, that this China flu (aka COVID-19) was manmade in a Chinese biowarfare lab in Wuhan. I also said it seemed likely Dr. Anthony Fauci had used American taxpayer money to fund the creation of COVID-19. And...

    A 21-year-old Amazon driver has been arrested after savagely attacking a 67-year-old customer Thursday following a dispute over a delivery in Castro Valley, Calif. The driver, Itzel Ramirez, engaged in a heated verbal exchange with the unnamed victim before unleashing a horrific onslaught of punches to the back of the head and the face of the much older woman. The vicious encounter was caught on video from multiple angles. Ramirez reportedly verbally berated the victim about her “white privilege” before the attack, according to KTVU FOX2. Police say that the victim may have called the suspect a “-—-” before the...

    It was starting out to be such a great Summer, but then…Foot-dragging states like California and New York were beginning to catch up with the rest of us in Texas, Florida and other smart places which long ago reopened our restaurants, movie theaters and other businesses…abandoning myopic “mask mandates” while watching our COVID-19 numbers plummet. Tunnel-vision publishers like Simon & Schuster—which cancelled U.S. Senator Josh Hawley’s stunningly important bookThe Tyranny of Big Tech—saw Salem Media’s Regnery Publishing pick it up and reap the profits. And Dr. Fauci was pulled down from his pedestal as even Joe Biden (or his handlers)...

    As we learn more about the great COVID cover-up, there’s a fascinating British thread going back decades when it comes to leftist lies. It’s becoming increasingly clear that America’s bureaucracies engaged in a cover-up about COVID’s origins. What’s also become clear is the fact that one of the main players in the entire COVID scandal is a British man, Peter Daszak. And I realized something when I thought about Daszak’s involvement: Beginning more than 20 years ago, the British have taken lead roles in three leftist lies that have been used to remake America: Climate change, the Russia hoax and,...

    Ver-sur-Mer (France) (AFP) - A memorial to almost 22,500 servicemen and women under British command killed during D-Day and subsequent battles is to be unveiled on Sunday in northern France, a tribute seen as a long overdue commemoration of their sacrifice. The British Normandy Memorial, inscribed with the names of 22,442 men and women who lost their lives during the invasion of Nazi-occupied France in the summer of 1944, will open on a hillside in the Normandy village of Ver-sur-Mer on the 77th anniversary of the landings. It overlooks Gold Beach, one of three beaches where British forces landed on...

    Source: (Official White House Photo by D. Myles Cullen)The year of the pandemic was the best thing to happen to cable news – a captive audience stuck at home with a reason to tune in regularly. They really hate to see it end. CNN’s ratings have cratered even greater than their credibility, which didn’t seem humanly possible considering they employ Chris Cuomo. The other networks and print outlets haven’t suffered the same fate, at least not yet. But whatever media emerges from this year of failure, mis- and disinformation should be viewed with the same skepticism and contempt CNN rightly...
  • America’s Jews face a New Reality

    Unless this menace somehow passes quickly, this new reality is a game-changer for America’s Jews. Hitler’s Brown Shirts are alive and well, trolling the streets of America in keffiyehs, harassing and assaulting Jews, painting swastikas on walls, and vandalizing synagogues and Jewish-owned property. This is the image that comes to mind, a comparison between the activities of the Nazi Party’s para-military troops of the 1930s who attacked Jewish citizens of Germany and vandalized Jewish-owned property, and the swarms of pro-Palestinian ruffians who have literally been hunting Jews in order to harass and assault them. This sudden explosion of violent physical...

    Nigerian preacher TB Joshua, one of Africa's most influential evangelists, has died at the age of 57. A post on his Facebook page, which has more than five million followers, said: "God has taken His servant". He was said to have died on Saturday shortly after conducting a live broadcast, but the cause of his death has not been made public. Tens of thousands would attend his services, with top politicians from across Africa among his followers. But his teachings and practises were also controversial. In April, YouTube suspended his account due to allegations of hate speech after a rights...

    The Delta variant is 40% more transmissible, the health secretary says, adding that protection against it is just as good with two doses of a vaccine Matt Hancock says the variant, first identified in India, makes life more challenging, and the government is "open" to delaying England's 21 June unlocking if needed Asked if measures such as face coverings and working from home could continue in the long term, he says he "wouldn't rule that out"
