For years, America’s left-wing elite universities have been hiding behind prestige and Ivy League branding while running full-blown discrimination campaigns against (mainly) white students, all in the name of politics. If you’re white (or Asian), you’re told to sit down, shut up, and take the back seat—because the progressive admissions and hiring playbook is all about race quotas, DEI scorecards, and left-wing identity politics. It’s not just unfair—it’s un-American. ... We’ve highlighted this from all angles at Revolver, exposing how universities use taxpayer dollars and their tax-exempt status to push a radical, anti-white, charity-driven agenda under the fake guise of...

Miami Beach's annual Pride Parade celebrates the LGBTQ community's impact in South Florida, but attendees said that this year feels different with government policies they feel roll back some protections... Since Jan. 20, the Trump administration has rolled back DEI programs in the federal government and frozen grants. The president also signed an executive order declaring that the U.S. government will only recognize two genders: male and female. "We have had to go back into our federal contracts," said Daniel Molloy of Pridelines, an LGBTQ community center. "We've had to go back into our state contracts. And redact any mention...

The American Alliance for Equal Rights reported the groups to the IRS over their discriminatory scholarships and programs.. The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and two other nonprofit organizations have come under fire for allegedly implementing scholarship and career advancement programs that discriminate against white Americans, potentially violating federal law and jeopardizing their tax-exempt status. The American Alliance for Equal Rights (AAER) reported three organizations, the Gates Foundation, the Lagrant Foundation, and the Creative Capital Foundation, in letters to the IRS, claiming the nonprofits have “intentionally” discriminated against white people. These cases of discrimination, AAER says, constitute “sufficient grounds” for...

Three Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) supervisors involved with the scandal in which aid workers were advised to bypass homes with Trump signs in the aftermath of Hurricane Milton have been fired. That makes four in total, given their walking papers over the incident. The news appears to contradict former FEMA Administrator Deanne Criswell, who told members of the House Oversight Committee that the shocking directive involved a lone employee. The New York Post reports that Cameron Hamilton, the agency's current acting administrator, sent a letter to Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) advising her of the results of an “exhaustive investigation”...

By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, it is hereby ordered: Section 1. Purpose. The dishonest and dangerous activity of the law firm Perkins Coie LLP (“Perkins Coie”) has affected this country for decades. Notably, in 2016 while representing failed Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, Perkins Coie hired Fusion GPS, which then manufactured a false “dossier” designed to steal an election. This egregious activity is part of a pattern. Perkins Coie has worked with activist donors including George Soros to judicially overturn popular, necessary, and democratically enacted election...

More rallies in Hawaii as DOGE cuts hit NOAA in the islands HONOLULU (HawaiiNewsNow) -- A march and rally in support of diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) was held on Saturday.

A high school in Minnesota was forced to cancel a field trip scheduled only for students who 'identify as a person of color' after a civil rights complaint was filed. Mark Perry, a community member and retired professor in Twin Cities in Minnesota, saw information on the field trip, which allegedly only was available to students who identified as students of color, on social media. The trip for Highland Park High School offered a chance for students to be exposed to digital marketing and advertising careers, according to Perry. Perry told the Star Tribune that the event, which has been...

Marlean Ames had earned positive performance reviews for nearly 15 years in her job at the Ohio Department of Youth Services. But in 2019 when she applied for a promotion, she got passed over for the position and was subsequently demoted. A gay woman got the job she'd applied for, while a gay man was assigned the job she once had. Her supervisor at the time was also gay. Ames is a straight woman. The Supreme Court on Wednesday will take up Ames' case of alleged "reverse discrimination" and her bid to revive a lawsuit against her employer under Title...

WASHINGTON—Amid a MAGA-led backlash to diversity, equity and inclusion policies, the Supreme Court on Wednesday will consider an issue that has split judges around the country: What do white people and other members of a majority group have to prove to win a claim for reverse discrimination? Marlean Ames claims the Ohio state agency where she works denied her a promotion and then demoted her because she is heterosexual, instead giving both her old job and the one she had sought to gay people. A federal appeals court in Cincinnati threw out Ames’s lawsuit, finding that she failed to show...

Bolting billionaires. Ballooning budgets. A racial discrimination suit from a thwarted subcontractor. Who needs Jussie Smollett? The Obama Presidential Center (OPC) is turning out to be Chicago's greatest hoax. Sprouting up on the city's South Side in 2021 like an Egyptian funerary complex, the Taj Barack has already taken nearly twice as long to build as any presidential library in history. And at an estimated cost of $830 million, it's the most expensive... by hundreds of millions. That's enough to make King Tut's mummy blush, but it's pretty standard when it comes to the modern gods of the Democratic party....

(Reuters) - Marlean Ames received numerous promotions and good evaluations over the years working in Ohio's youth corrections system, so when she was denied a promotion and demoted in 2019 with a $40,000 pay cut she said she felt "shocked and hurt and humiliated." But, according to Ames, that was not all. She had a gay supervisor at the time, she was passed over for a promotion in favor of a gay woman and she was demoted in favor of a gay man - both of whom, Ames asserted, were less qualified than her. "That's how I came to feel...

But former colleagues of the terminated “G-men” say this narrative is backward. FBI officials, past and present, have marshaled significant evidence via whistleblower complaints and testimony indicating that several terminated leaders routinely used their offices for partisan purposes.

The Office of Special Counsel found Marn’i Washington, the former Federal Emergency Management Agency supervisor who told her team to “avoid” homes “advertising Trump” during Hurricane Milton response, violated the Hatch Act through her “bias[ed]” conduct. Washington is charged with two counts of violating the Hatch Act, one for engaging in political activity while on duty and another for using her authority or influence to interfere with or affect the result of an election.

An MP wants to know if carrot tops and blue-haired cat ladies will get special treatment under the Equality Act.Anneliese Dodds, Labour MP for Oxford East and UK minister for women and equalities, was compelled to answer an eye-catching question from a backbench MP last week. Chris Evans, the Labour MP for Caerphilly, submitted a written question earlier this month, asking Dodds ‘whether she plans to amend the list of protected characteristics in the Equality Act 2010 to include hair colour’. Ms Dodds was pleased to be able to confirm that the government has no such plans. Well, that’s a...

Mob rule on college campuses has suffered a serious legal setback. The Jewish professor suing the California College of the Arts in San Francisco for threatening to fire her because she gently reproached pro-Hamas students won a significant legal battle earlier this month when a federal judge ruled that the case can proceed, rejecting a motion to dismiss from the College.Hopefully, the ruling is going to prove a cautionary note to college administrators who coddle pro-Hamas students and resort to railroading any professors who dare challenge them. United States District Court Judge Haywood Gilliam, Jr., ruled that the professor, Karen...

The EO takes aim at the private sector and higher education, requesting an OMB report within 120 days on the worst offenders and targets for federal action. Through our work at the Equal Protection Project (EPP), we have already identified numerous recalcitrant and systematically discriminatory institutions and we will be making our findings public long in advance of the OMB report. i previously wrote how Trump Signed Executive Orders Rescinding Biden’s “Racial Equity” Agenda and Eliminating DEI Throughout Federal Government. Those executive orders rescinded Biden’s 2021 and 2023 “Racial Equity” executive orders, and also banned DEI within federal agencies and...

A federal appeals court decided this week to allow Davina Ricketts, a former North Carolina high school student, to continue pursuing her racial discrimination lawsuit against the Wake County Public School System, its board of education, and numerous school officials. Ricketts alleges that school and district officials did not intervene and were “deliberately indifferent” to the racial harassment and cyberbullying she endured from other students during and after a student council election in 2016.... When election day came, Ricketts discovered her name and the names of the other three Black candidates were not on the junior class ballot. The omission...

In a stunning reversal, the tech industry—once the unstoppable engine of modern innovation—has laid off over 124,000 workers in 2024 alone. What’s driving this wave of layoffs, and what does it mean for the future of work in one of the world’s most dynamic sectors? The Layoff Landscape In August 2024, Intel sent shockwaves through the market by announcing a 15% reduction in its global workforce—roughly 15,000 jobs. Just days later, Cisco Systems announced plans to lay off 7% of its employees, marking its second round of job cuts this year as the company shifts focus to rapidly growing areas...

The game show, Wheel of Fortune has gone off the end since Pat Sajak left. The makeup of contestants is now strongly anti-white hetero male and it is so, so obvious. The current season under new host Ryan Seacrest has featured the black population far beyond the average population of the country. Over 33% of the contestants have been black with only a couple of shows not having a black contestant. These shows that did not had Hispanic contestants instead. There was a stretch of five shows earlier this year when there was not a single white male contestant. It...

Taylor Starling, a high school cross-country runner at Martin Luther King High School in Riverside, California, lost her spot on the varsity team earlier this season to a transgender transfer student. Multiple parents of students at Martin Luther King have told Fox News Digital that the school has allowed the trans athlete to compete on the varsity cross-country team despite missing practices for academic reasons. These parents include Starling's father, longtime firefighter Ryan Starling, and construction subcontractor Dan Slavin, father to Kaitlyn, another runner on the team. "The fact that the male athlete was able to compete while attending less...
