A father is suing Colarado’s largest school district after he alleges that a school refused to let his children display “straight flags”. Nathan Feldman alleges that his two children have been denied their First Amendment rights at the K-8 Slavens School in Denver. He says that a “straight flag” would represent his children’s beliefs and should be allowed to be hung and displayed on campus the same way LGBTQ+ flags are. Feldman’s lawyer, Michael Yoder, has blamed equality, diversion and inclusion policies in Denver for the “overt sexualisation of content in elementary schools nationwide”. He said that books focused on...

The urgent need to expose the corruption within the Biden family is undeniable; it’s a cover-up we all acknowledge. A call echoes for more Republicans to exhibit the same level of outrage and tenacity as demonstrated by Byron Donalds. The revelation of Hunter Biden receiving a staggering $4.9 million from Hollywood lawyer Kevin Morris over three years, unearthed by an IRS whistleblower, marks a significant escalation in the known financial ties between Hunter and his so-called “sugar brother.” IRS agent Joseph Ziegler, in a compelling Tuesday testimony before the House Ways & Means Committee, presented the jaw-dropping figure and additional...

The unspeakable brutality and depravity of the October 7 Hamas assault on Israel led soon afterward to aggressive protests on many of our college campuses. The protests (and declarations, blog posts, marches, signs, etc.) were overwhelmingly in favor of Hamas, not the victims. Liberal feminist and women’s-rights groups were silent or dismissive of the widespread gross sexual abuse of Israeli women during the attack. At a large rally near campus, one professor at my school (Cornell) said that the attacks were “exhilarating.” While paying lip service to protecting civilians, his visceral reaction to what was known to be a barbaric...

Israeli forces are closing in on the location of Hamas leader, Yahya Sinwar, Israel's military has suggested, as it moves into the "third phase" of ground operations in the devastated Gaza Strip. The Chief of the Israel Defense Forces' General Staff, Lieutenant General Herzi Halevi, was quoted by The Jerusalem Post on Tuesday as saying that the IDF has encircled southern Gaza and Khan Younis, where multiple top officials have said Sinwar is hiding, though the outlet said there was no precise timeline for capturing or killing him. "[Yahya] Sinwar is the address," Halevi said. Israeli forces moving through the...

Before becoming Italian prime minister, Giorgia Meloni was one of the most strident voices on migration in the European Union. As an opposition politician, she warned darkly of efforts to substitute native Italians with ethnic minorities and promised to put in place a naval blockade to stop migrants crossing the Mediterranean. During her time in office, she has taken a markedly different tack — presiding over a sharp spike in irregular arrivals and introducing legislation that could see as many as 1.5 million new migrants arrive through legal channels. Coming at a time when the right and far right are...

To understand how the UN effectively runs the Hamas propaganda war, it is important to know that the UN, through its agency for Palestinian refugees, the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA), is effectively embedded with Hamas in the Gaza Strip…“The UN has 13,000 employees in tiny Gaza. They know exactly what’s going on… They all knew Hamas’ terror infrastructure was in the hospital compound, where Israel wouldn’t attack. They lied to the world for 16 years. To paint Israel as evil.” — Hillel Neuer, Executive Director of UN Watch, November 16, 2023.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez claimed that all women will have to face genital examinations if biological men are banned from competing in female sports. The 'squad' member spoke out at Tuesday night's House Oversight Subcommittee on Health which discussed the topic of gender participation in competitive sports. AOC, 34, said there were multiple proposals that would marginalize transgender Americans and claimed that questioning athletes' gender would open up women and girls to 'genital examinations'. 'We are talking about opening up all women and girls to genital examinations when they are underage, potentially just because someone can point to someone and say, I...

I have noticed a world of difference between visiting the depressed and visiting the physically sick. The physically sick will chat with you and will enjoy a prayer at the end of your conversation about their illness and the medical plan to take care of it. The depressed, on the other hand, want to talk to you about God. They weep over their sins. They look to the words of the pastor as if life were in them. Their eyes contain tear-filled expectations, simultaneously expressing grief and hope.If we evaluate these types of sicknesses—mental and physical—it is easy to see...

(Key stakeholders were intrigued by the possibility of a new FBS subdivision that could allow schools to pay players directly) LAS VEGAS -- If there is a college athletics revolution in the near future, the NCAA is now admitting it wants to be part of it. In a letter sent to membership Tuesday, NCAA president Charlie Baker proposed sweeping changes to his association's amateurism model that would essentially create pay for play between schools and athletes. Baker proposed a new subdivision consisting of schools "with the highest resources" that would likely separate itself from the rest of the Football Bowl...
