A group of graduates walked out of Stanford University’s commencement ceremony Sunday moments after Google CEO Sundar Pichai began delivering his keynote address. Videos circulating on social media showed more than 100 students leaving their seats at Stanford Stadium while chanting, “Free, free Palestine.” The protest was organized by far left radical groups including Students for Justice in Palestine and No Tech for Apartheid. Students for Justice in Palestine calls for ”death to all collaborates”, which grotesquely mimics Hamas’ justification for executing Palestinian collaborators. They have previously posted images mourning the death of influencers in Gaza who have openly celebrated...

Americans have been assured that we’re importing the “best and brightest” foreigners the world has to offer. So, when a story like this hits the internet, people are going to wonder what the hell is going on. Because the public has been sold a very specific story about these amazing standards, credentials, and competence from immigrants who come here to work and are placed in positions of tremendous trust. Apparently, that’s not entirely true. This case we’re about to share with you is a complete and total nightmare. According to a lawsuit filed in Oregon by the parents of a...

A pack of Biden-era Department of Education bigwigs covertly defied federal court orders, even after a colleague tried to blow the whistle — and are still on the job, even though the department has admitted the violations. The story starts in 2021, with President Joe Biden’s executive order that banning “discrimination on the basis of gender identity and sexual orientation” across the entire federal government. The folks at Education ran with that, sending out “guidelines” to state officials warning that “Title IX’s ban on sex discrimination” extends to “discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity” — refuse to go...

Two adults were arrested by ICE agents at a Maryland preschool graduation ceremony, drawing condemnation from top elected officials in the state. Children were allegedly heard 'screaming' when the arrests took place on Thursday in the parking lot of Commodore John Rodgers Elementary School in Baltimore. Video taken by a witness shows two agents holding a man down on the pavement as they tried to get his arms behind his back so they could cuff him, while the woman recording shouted, 'This is school property! It's against the law!' Last month, the City of Baltimore signed an emergency bill prohibiting...

A Manhattan public school is treating parents and teachers as “separate” but equal. The P.S. 003 Charrette School in the West Village is hosting a workshop for parents and staffers that separate them into “affinity” groups by race and ethnicity — a move slammed as discriminatory by legal experts. “What Does it Mean to be White in a Multi-Racial Community at PS3? — How does whiteness affect the collective child experience at PS3, as well as the entire community? White-identifying PS3 community members – SIGN UP HERE,” reads the invite posted on the school’s website. The June 16 “Listening Circles”...

Among Americans, there remains an ever-growing divide between those who are pro-life and those who are pro-killing-their-baby. In an attempt to bridge this divide, The Babylon Bee interviewed thousands of liberals to hear their compelling reasons to murder infants. Here are the 10 most convincing liberal arguments for abortion:Planned Parenthood gives out free cookies with every abortion: Everyone loves cookies.The baby may develop acne as a teenager and get called "pepperoni face": Abortion is a mercy. No human being has ever survived acne.Diapers are clogging up landfills: Unless we stop climate change now, there won't be a world for babies...

As its national influence has risen, the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) has simultaneously grown more extreme. Nowhere is this more apparent than in the group’s “Red Rabbits” initiative. The Red Rabbits Security Commission, a subgroup within the DSA focused on “community defense” efforts, is, according to its authorizing resolution, preparing for a “national uprising against federal agents and police brutality.” In practice, that means training cadres in tactics like armed and unarmed self-defense, blocking intersections, and fighting “fascists” with umbrellas. A recent panel offered an unprecedented window into what the project looks like. Organizers from Minnesota, Oklahoma City, Philadelphia,...

This college commencement season — from north to south, east to west, state universities to the Ivy League, law schools to military academies — one trend stood out: speeches about AI. Some speakers praised the technology and were booed; others denigrated it and were cheered. But one thing was clear, it’s all anyone can talk about. At least 25 graduating classes have heard some version of the spiel. Yes, talk about AI is timely, but it’s also not all that helpful. Nobody knows where the technology is headed, and students probably have a better grasp of that future than the...

The empty desks appearing across Colorado today are the delayed consequence of decisions made years ago by politicians, educators, and cultural elites. Colorado colleges are bracing for what education experts call an “enrollment cliff.” Fewer high school graduates mean fewer college applicants, shrinking tuition revenue, budget cuts, mergers, and even campus closures. The same phenomenon is unfolding nationwide. After years of warnings, the demographic reckoning has arrived. According to recent Colorado education data, public school enrollment fell by more than 10,000 students this year, the state’s largest decline since the pandemic. State officials point to a simple explanation: there are...

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries on Sunday dodged key questions about scandal-scarred Maine Senate hopeful Graham Platner, saying the fellow Dem and horny oyster farmer has to answer for himself. Platner, who is married and faces a primary-election race Tuesday, was hit early on with revelations of a Nazi-linked tattoo and cheating-by-sext. Then last week came allegations of deeply disturbing behavior toward female partners and him harboring fantasies about raping home intruders. “I haven’t followed these allegations closely, but what I have said is that violence against women in any way, shape or form is unacceptable,” Jeffries (D-NY) told Fox...

One of TV’s longest-running children's shows is facing backlash for once again linking its puppets to homosexuality on social media. Sesame Street shared a post on social media Tuesday, which read: “Happy Pride Month from Sesame Street! Join us in celebrating and uplifting the [gay and lesbian] members of our community.” The post also included an image featuring different rainbow-colored furs resembling puppet characters from Sesame Street, such as Elmo, Cookie Monster and others. Primarily geared toward toddlers, the series, (which moved in 2015 from PBS to HBO, and in 2025) was acquired by Netflix — drew the ire of...

Given this data, what to you think are the factors that make this so?

One of the ringleaders of the Delaney Hall mayhem is a former New Jersey early-childhood teacher, The Post has learned. Anti-ICE demonstrations have raged outside the federal immigration detention center in Newark since May 22, when 300 migrants inside went on a hunger strike over what they claimed were inhumane conditions. Ex-teacher Cassandra Magazino, a “nonbinary” radical activist who lives in Pompton Plains, immediately started clamoring to “free the detainees” and “abolish ICE.” “No concentration camps in New Jersey!” Magazino, 36, raged on Threads under the moniker “Rainbow Renegade,” which she’s used to organize the two-week long protest that’s resulted...

Connecticut officials just adopted the first major new restriction on homeschooling in America in decades, forcing parents to seek permission from “child welfare” authorities while imposing a slew of new regulations on families who exit government schools. Advocates for home education blasted the move. And they vowed to fight on. The legislation, known as House Bill 5468 and signed into law as Public Act 26-37 or “An Act Concerning the Provision of Parent-Managed Learning,” treats all homeschool families as guilty until proven innocent, critics said. Before starting to homeschool, parents must report to the government and receive approval from the...

As FOX 5 DC reported, an Oxen Hill, Maryland man named Jheyco Borda was operating on his vehicle near Oxon Hill High School around 4:30 p.m. on Wednesday when four teenagers sauntered up to him on the sidewalk.

A Cornell student activist who hounded the Ivy League school’s president, Michael Kotlikoff, in a parking lot following an Israel-Palestinian debate has been banned from campus. Aiden Vallecillo is prohibited from attending any events at the Ithaca institution for one year after he was a part of a larger group of students who surrounded and filmed Kotlikoff, demanding to talk with the administrator as he walked to his car on April 30, according to WBNG. Vallecillo, who graduated from the elite upstate university in May, was labeled a persona non grata by university police at his off-campus apartment on May...

The Shocking Damage Caused by Covid PoliciesThe Covid lockdowns may not have been remotely effective, but at least they harmed millions of people and created long-lasting negative impacts that we’re still dealing with today.That’s the conclusion of a massive new body of research into the nonsensical policies promoted by the public health “expert” class, promoted by their media partners, and enacted by incompetent, cowardly politicians.Mask mandates had been thoroughly discouraged by decades of pre-Covid pandemic planning. There was no body of research supporting the closing of certain businesses at different hours of the day, as many jurisdictions demanded.No studies were...

Rep. Rashida Tlaib’s (D-Mich.) Lebanon war powers resolution was shut down Thursday, with the majority of House Democrats rejecting the “Squad” rep’s effort. In the floor vote, 117 Democrats voted against her resolution, and 91 voted in favor, resulting in a 92-324 defeat of Tlaib’s attempt to limit potential Trump administration military options in Lebanon. Tlaib insisted Israel was carrying out an “ethnic cleansing campaign,” and Congress must intervene to stop the “war crime.” “The Trump administration is helping in greenlighting these attacks,” she said, as Israel seeks to root out the Hezbollah terror threat in Lebanon as a second...
