Whether in high school, college or the workplace, they see this anti-male attitude as coming from the Democrats, with diversity, equity and inclusion meaning a diversity and inclusion that is not diverse enough to include them, especially if they are White. (Snip) Democrats take the blame, though, because on top of these discriminations against men, Democrats, via DEI, HR, “Believe Women,” “#MeToo,” “toxic masculinity,” “the patriarchy,” “male privilege,” “male power” and taking pride in “the future is female,” create safe spaces and trigger warnings for women but not for men.Democrats appear to be the ones blaming them for all the...

President-elect Donald Trump is expected controversially to move Space Command headquarters out of Colorado to Alabama. Space Command, separate from the Trump-created Space Force, has been the center of a yearslong dispute about whether to put its headquarters in Colorado or Alabama. Trump has favored the deep-red Alabama, while Biden favored the deep-blue Colorado. Rep. Mike Rogers (R-AL) told Mobile radio FM Talk 106.5 that Trump would settle the dispute as one of his first moves in office. "President Trump said in the campaign that he was going to reverse that decision if elected," he said, referring to Biden's decision...

Some of the migrants in sanctuary city New York are already 'terrified' of being deported by Donald Trump - but others are convinced they'll be free from persecution because they aren't criminals. At the The Roosevelt Hotel shelter, where many have been living for over a year, some say they feel 'traumatized' by Trump's repeated threats. One mother was seen sobbing in the lobby after the Republican's win was announced early Wednesday. Another said he is already planning to flee the US and go to Costa Rica, telling Daily Mail: 'I am a scared man.' 'I don’t want them to...

I have been reading the articles concerning Proposition 127 and how this undermines the Colorado Parks and Wildlife’s ability to properly manage wildlife. I agree 100 percent. However, there is another insidious movement underway that will undermine both the CPW and hunting in a big way. The National Forest Service is quietly, but steadily closing off dispersed camping — camping in areas other than designated campgrounds. I experienced this in September on my muzzleloading deer/elk hunt in South Park. This will probably be the last tented hunting camp I will be able to do with my hunting partner. I am...

“This wisdom is not that which comes down from above, but is earthly, natural, demonic” (James 3:15). True wisdom is from God; false wisdom is from the Devil. Wisdom that is bitterly jealous and self-centered is not “from above.” Such traits constitute a wisdom that doesn’t come from God, the source of true wisdom (cf. 1:5, 17). Human wisdom, rather than being from above, is “earthly” (3:15). It is limited to the sphere of time and space and marked by the curse of man’s own fallenness, which is characterized by pride and self-centeredness. Everything the world initiates in the way...

President-elect Donald Trump has selected South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem as his next secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, according to two people familiar with the selection. Noem will be tapped to take over the agency as two key immigration hardliners — Stephen Miller and Tom Homan — are slated to serve in senior roles, signaling Trump is serious about his promise to crack down on his immigration pledges. With his selection of Noem, Trump is ensuring a loyalist will head an agency he prioritizes and that is key to his domestic agenda.The department saw an immense amount of...

The judge in US President-elect Donald Trump's New York criminal case will decide Tuesday whether to throw out his conviction, potentially handing him a major legal win as he prepares to take office again. Trump was convicted of 34 felony counts in May after a jury found he had fraudulently manipulated business records to cover up an alleged sexual encounter with a porn star ahead of the 2016 election. Trump, due to be sentenced on November 26, may receive a reprieve if Judge Juan Merchan decides to dismiss the case following the Supreme Court's recent ruling on presidential immunity... Ahead...

Donald Trump’s winning the 2024 US presidential election popular vote shows Democrats need to move back to the political centre to win, says US politics expert Steven Okun.Donald Trump will become the next United States president, this time with a win in the popular vote that eluded him eight years ago. But more Americans did not suddenly want to Make America Great Again or put America First. Donald Trump garnered slightly more votes than he did when he lost in 2020. Kamala Harris received about 10 million fewer votes than outgoing President Joe Biden. Harris, Biden and the Democratic Party...

Is the movie Dune 2 worth watching? I have seen a trailer and the one young evil knife fighter looks like Sam Briton, the guy who worked for the Biden administration and stole luggage? I was waiting to see smudged lipstick on his face. Also, I think I saw the actor who played the evil dude in “No Country for Old Men.” But his lines seemed too stiff and predictable. All I could think was that he would be pulling out that Hydronic Hose Gun he had in “No Country for Old Men.” Visually, the movie looks striking and everybody...

A famous Belarusian prankster who has garnered a reputation for duping schools to highlight the “fascistization of Russian society” has tricked teachers in Russia's Voronezh region into wearing pro-Russia “protective” tinfoil hats. Vladislav Bokhan, an exiled Belarusian artist and activist who lives in Poland, wrote on Telegram on November 9 that in July he sent out what appeared to be an official government directive to schools in the Voronezh region to organize events in which tinfoil hats bearing the Russian flag were made. The hats, the order said, would “protect against foreign enemies.” The schools were also instructed to...

Social media platform Bluesky has picked up more than 700,000 new users in the week since the US election, as users seek to escape misinformation and offensive posts on X. The influx, largely from North America and the UK, has helped Bluesky reach 14.5 million users worldwide, up from 9 million in September, the company said. Social media researcher Axel Bruns said the platform offered an alternative to X, formerly Twitter, including a more effective system for blocking or suspending problematic accounts and policing harmful behaviour. “It’s become a refuge for people who want to have the kind of social...

Americans are becoming all too familiar with the phrase “house rich, cash poor,” as a growing number of middle-class adults report spending more than 30% of their income on housing costs. With rising home prices, stagnating wages, and relatively high mortgage rates, that once-reliable housing benchmark is becoming harder to maintain.
