LAUSD required all employees to undergo "implicit/unconscious bias training" guided by Tyrone Howard, a critical race theory advocate and professor at the University of California, Los Angeles, prior to the 2021-2022 school year. The training materials, which were obtained by Fox News Digital through a California Public Records Act (PRA) request, instructed educators to work toward being "antiracist" by challenging whiteness at school, which Howard argued exists in the concepts of "merit" and "individualism."...

Unlike the Watergate hearings, the Benghazi hearings, all past impeachment hearings, or the House Un-American Activities Committee, this committee does not have a single person who might present a challenging set of questions for any of the witnesses brought before the American people. From Supreme Court confirmation hearings to the aforementioned congressional proceedings to the OJ Simpson murder trial to the Johnny Depp/Amber Heard defamation trial to any episode of Judge Judy, the American people have come to expect that we would hear "the other side" to every issue put before us. No matter how paltry the defense of any...

Many people with the condition can't even recognize family members, partners or friends and cope by using alternative ways to recognize people, such as remembering the way they walk, or their hairstyle, voice or clothing. While Brad has not been formally diagnosed with the condition he has long believed himself to be...

"Don't bring a bike to a car fight." That might be the takeaway from a video that has gone viral since its posting July 4 on Twitter. The location of the event is uncertain, but it shows motorcyclists kicking an SUV numerous times on its exterior panels for an unknown reason at an intersection. The SUV driver was apparently in no mood to turn the other cheek and turned his own vehicle into a snowplow of sorts, smashing into one of the biker's motorcycles and continuing to push it down the street while a motorcyclist desperately tried to stop the...

Joe Biden has shipped five million barrels from the United States' Strategic Oil Reserve abroad, after claiming that releasing them would help ease Americans' pain at the pumps. The president faces accusations of a sneaky sleight of hand as it was revealed that between a fifth and a sixth of the reserve oil he bragged about releasing to boost supply made its way offshore to Europe and Asia in June. Biden authorized the release of a million barrels a day from April onwards. But his action has done little to combat soaring gas prices, with the national average sitting at...

e year was 1748, the place was Philadelphia, and the book was The Instructor, a popular British manual for everything from arithmetic to letter-writing to caring for horses’ hooves. Benjamin Franklin had set himself to adapting it for the American colonies. Though Franklin already had a long and successful career by this point, he needed to find a way to convince colonial book-buyers—who for the most part didn’t even formally study arithmetic—that his version of George Fisher’s textbook was worth the investment. Franklin made all sorts of changes throughout the book, from place names to inserting colonial histories, but he...
