Internal Portland Public Schools documents provided to Fox News by a whistleblower show the district’s mandatory cultural competency teacher training is heavily steeped in Critical Race Theory with an emphasis on creating activists. Among the material being shown to students in third through fifth grades is an interview clip of author Sonya Renee Taylor saying, "Our society speaks racism. It has spoken racism since we were born. Of course you are a racist, of course." Another video being shown to kids as young as 8 years old features an actor reading from the book "Anti-Racist Baby," written by Ibram X....

Russian warplanes repeatedly flew low over a Dutch navy frigate in the Black Sea last week and carried out “mock attacks,” the Defense Ministry of the Netherlands said Tuesday. The incident involving the Dutch ship Zr. Ms. Evertsen happened last Thursday southeast of Crimea, the ministry said in a statement. It came a day after after Russia said one of its warships in the Black Sea fired warning shots and a warplane dropped bombs to force a British destroyer out of an area near Crimea that Russia claims as its territorial waters. Britain denied that account and insisted its ship...

Nothing says "let's try again" like hiring an assassin to drug your ex until they agree to rekindle the relationship. That is apparently what one neonatal doctor in Spokane, Washington thought, as he allegedly did just that. Ronald Ilg, 55, was arrested in April and is being charged in federal court for hiring a hitman over the internet to abduct his wife and imprison her in a "secure location" for a week, all the while dosing her with heroin. "The target destroyed two families and walked away as if she did nothing," the doctor allegedly wrote in his abductor job...

A divided Supreme Court on Tuesday denied a request to block a US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention order that prohibits landlords nationwide from evicting certain tenants who fail to pay rent amid the Covid-19 pandemic. The court's order means the moratorium will remain in place until July 31. Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Brett Kavanaugh joined with the court's three liberals to keep the moratorium in place. Justices Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, Neil Gorsuch and Amy Coney Barrett said they would have granted the request.

It is just beyond belief to me that there are still people who actually believe that those in our Government like Mass-murderer Anthony Fauci, and the Fake President suffering from dementia, Joe Biden, are telling the truth. What evidence do you have that they have EVER said anything publicly that is true about COVID-19? But there it is. Fear mongering to get more people to sign up for the bioweapon shots, because now the “unvaccinated” will be blamed for this “new variant” which is neither “new” nor dangerous (if it exists at all). Here is a video analyzing how this...

The True Church exists in two simultaneous modes; the visible and invisible church. By the visible church we refer to the local assemblies of God’s people, who believe in Jesus, worship Him, break bread and who observe and propagate the teachings of the Apostles. The visible church, can be referred to as the churches. They are the witness of God (for better or worse) in every community where they are established. Churches come and they go, they can shine brightly, or they can apostasize, they have differing histories, experiences, expressions of worship, and they can be seen by men. “Let...

Former University of Georgia football icon Herschel Walker will join next year’s race to represent the Peach State in the US Senate, former President Donald Trump said Tuesday. “He told me he’s going to, and I think he will,” Trump told “The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show” of the 59-year-old Walker. “I had dinner with him a week ago. He’s a great guy. He’s a patriot, and he’s a very loyal person. He’s a very strong person. They love him in Georgia … He is a fantastic guy, and they love him. “So I think he’d win,” Trump added....

House Minority Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) has announced the formation of a climate change task force as the Republican Party gets ready to capitulate to the liberals on yet another issue. Perhaps after a session with his butt-buddy and roomie Frank Luntz, McCarthy decided to make climate change a primary focus for the Republican Party moving forward. He made climate change the focus of one of his seven task forces, which are overwhelmingly packed with RINOs. “These task forces will be critical in building consensus around ideas to continue to build on our Commitment to America and ensure that the...

Abp. Viganò issues ‘severe warning’ to Pope Francis in wake of his support for Fr. James Martin'The one who sits in Rome is surrounded by immoral persons who wink at LGBTQ+ movements and hypocritically simulate a welcome and an inclusivity that betrays their choice of field and their sinful tendencies. There is no more courage; there is no more fidelity to Christ...'THE WORLD, THE FLESH, AND THE DEVILScitote quoniam Dominus ipse est Deus: Ipse fecit nos, et non ipsi nos.Know that the Lord is God: He made us, and not we ourselves.

A Ruling Class judge first gave this corrupt government official, who forged a document in order to frame a man, then entered that forgery into evidence in a FISA hearing, no jail time at all. The judge's excuse? Well, this criminal lost his job. And might lose his law license. Isn't that punishment enough?... I think the average street criminal would be surprised to learn that losing your job due to a crime, and maybe losing your Ruling Class Credential of a law license, is punishment enough. And now -- about that losing his law license part. He lost it...

The COVID-19 pandemic has reached a stage where infections can now be controlled and prevented by vaccinations. Whether it’s Pfizer, Moderna or Johnson & Johnson, more and more New Yorkers are getting vaccinated so that we can protect each other, and especially protect vulnerable populations. It’s also becoming more apparent that being able to prove your vaccination status will be a useful thing going forward. Being able to prove that you’re fully vaccinated could become an essential way of living and being able to live a life of normality, like before the pandemic. The ImmunaBand Vaccination Band is a useful...

Since the age of 13, and being raised in the northeast, I was an unabashed and unapologetic Pittsburgh Steelers football fan, having starting to watch during the dynasty years of the 1970’s. Though my love of football faded some after getting saved, I still enjoyed watching the games from time to time. Time, for me, ran out when the NFL started supporting the politics of Colin Kaepernick leading all the way up to blatant disrespect for our National Anthem and flag. I didn’t watch one minute of one game in 2020, but to be honest, I was holding out hope...

Billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk said Tuesday he plans to invest up to 30 billion dollars to develop his ambitious Starlink satellite internet service. Starlink plans to deploy thousands of low-orbit satellites to provide high-speed internet to isolated and poorly connected areas. It has so far deployed over 1,500 satellites and by August it will be able to provide coverage everywhere in the world except the North and South Poles, Musk told the Mobile World Congress, a telecoms industry conference underway in Barcelona, by video. The Tesla chief said he expects to invest "at least five billion dollars, and maybe as...

Royal Caribbean International said on Tuesday it would require unvaccinated guests over 12 years of age traveling from Florida to show proof of insurance that covers COVID-19 related medical expenses, quarantine and evacuation.

The silence inside a makeshift cinema in the heart of Kyiv was shattered with the crash of a windowpane. Fireworks flashed. Homophobic attackers were attempting to besiege the screening of a film about the lives of LGBTQ people. The assailants threw tear gas and pyrotechnics. A member of the audience jumped up onto the windowsill and began throwing the projectiles back onto the street — shocking the men outside, who quickly ran away. That man was Viktor Pylypenko, a former member of the Ukrainian army's anti-terror detail in Donbass and the founder of a federation for equal rights for LGBTQ...

Explanation: Few cosmic vistas excite the imagination like the Orion Nebula. Also known as M42, the nebula's glowing gas surrounds hot young stars at the edge of an immense interstellar molecular cloud only 1,500 light-years away. The Orion Nebula offers one of the best opportunities to study how stars are born partly because it is the nearest large star-forming region, but also because the nebula's energetic stars have blown away obscuring gas and dust clouds that would otherwise block our view - providing an intimate look at a range of ongoing stages of starbirth and evolution. The featured image of...

On Monday, several residents at Maison Grande Condominium, an 18-story building with 502 units, said they are worried about the safety of the 1971 building at 6039 Collins Ave., in Miami Beach. They have photographs showing corroded steel and concrete spalling. Records show there have been five inspections that determined the building is an “unsafe structure.” The building envelope is among the list of concerns. There were also warnings that the two-story parking garage and pool deck “have reached the end of their useful life and require repair, replacement,” or “a combination thereof.”

The discovery of a huge fossilised skull that was wrapped up and hidden in a Chinese well nearly 90 years ago has forced scientists to rewrite the story of human evolution. Analysis of the remains has revealed a new branch of the human family tree that points to a previously unknown sister group more closely related to modern humans than the Neanderthals. The extraordinary fossil has been named a new human species, Homo longi or “Dragon man”, by Chinese researchers, although other experts are more cautious about the designation. “I think this is one of the most important finds of...

Plans for former President Donald Trump to return July 4th weekend to the city many credited with lending legitimacy to his 2016 campaign after USS Alabama Battleship Memorial Park commissioners reportedly did not sign off on a plan for Trump to hold a rally at the Mobile site. The commissioners were concerned that Trump’s appearance on Saturday “was going to be a partisan political event, rather than just a patriotic event planned for that evening,” Bill Tunnell, chairman of the commission, told NBC 15. Efforts to reach Tunnell were not successful. The commissioner told the station the body asked Attorney...

Everywhere you look, things are getting weird, and I don’t mean that in a good way. Throughout all of our ups and downs over the decades, one thing that our society could always count on for a certain degree of consistency was nature. But now nature is going haywire at the same time that the very fabric of our society seems to be unraveling all around us. In this article, I am going to share with you a number of items that have been brought to my attention over the past month. On their own, each one of these items...
