Charging documents alleged that on November 11 and 12, Caines committed three similar attacks in the area, spitting directly into the faces of unsuspecting women at close range, according to The Post. 'It felt targeted, even though I don’t know who he is. For some reason, I was the chosen victim.

Chicago Public Schools are now allowing illegal immigrant students to miss class if they or their parents fear being targeted by immigration enforcement. An internal document obtained by education watchdog Defending Education states that students without legal status can be marked as 'excused' if a parent tells the school they are afraid of federal immigration authorities. 'If a parent/guardian reports an absence and attributes it to fear of federal representative-related procedures, schools CAN excuse the absence under “concern for student health and safety,"' the policy states. 'Additional information should not be provided in the memo box to respect student/family confidentiality.'...

In yet another shocking example of radical left ideology infiltrating public schools, a “non-binary” Baltimore high school English teacher has come under intense fire for sharing explicit kink-related content on social media, including videos where he role-plays as a pregnant woman with enormous prosthetic breasts. James Roman Stilipec, 50, who goes by “Jay Aress” online and teaches ninth-grade students at Reach! Partnership School, has been blasted by parents and conservative groups for flaunting his fetishes publicly, raising serious questions about his fitness to be around impressionable teens. Stilipec, a former U.S. Navy veteran with 36DDD breast implants he proudly calls...

More than 150 anti-ICE protestors descended on a lower Manhattan government building Saturday and clashed with cops amid reports that federal agents are rounding up illegal migrants in the area this weekend. Cops responded to the chaotic scene near the U.S. General Service Administration building on Centre Street after receiving a 911 call about protestors blocking access to a nearby garage that Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents reportedly entered, the NYPD said. Multiple protesters were arrested for obstructing government administration and disorderly conduct after ignoring multiple warnings by police to clear the area. Some were spotted trying to climb the...

A new labor market analysis from Massachusetts Institute of Technology suggests that artificial intelligence is no longer a future threat to jobs. It is already capable of performing tasks tied to 11.7 percent of total U.S. wages. That represents as much as $1.2 trillion in economic exposure across major sectors including finance, health care, logistics and professional services. The findings come from a newly developed labor simulation system known as the Iceberg Index. The project was built jointly by MIT and Oak Ridge National Laboratory and models how today’s AI tools interact with the real American workforce at a granular,...

A Virginia high school principal and his brother were arrested for allegedly planning to carry out a heinous attack involving firearms and explosives to kill US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced on Wednesday. John Wilson Bennett, and his brother Mark Booth Bennett, have each been charged with conspiracy to commit malicious wounding. According to DHS, the pair was overheard by Virginia state police officers on November 17 discussing alleged plans to "kill police officers and ICE agents." Additionally, Mark was allegedly overheard stating his intention to meet with like-minded individuals in Las...

Since I have no Spirit-filled words for her, I'll just give you the funny comments instead. RESPONSES AT LINK......................... Republicans should probably just play this on repeat for the midterms.

Excess weight or obesity boosts risk of death by anywhere from 22% to 91%—significantly more than previously believed—while the mortality risk of being slightly underweight has likely been overestimated, according to new CU Boulder research. The findings, published Feb. 9 in the journal Population Studies, counter prevailing wisdom that excess weight boosts mortality risk only in extreme cases. The statistical analysis of nearly 18,000 people also shines a light on the pitfalls of using body mass index (BMI) to study health outcomes, providing evidence that the go-to metric can potentially bias findings. After accounting for those biases, it estimates that...

Although, I will not give particulars to protect myself, God performed a miracle for me last night. I was traveling from my work camp to a gas compression station, which compresses LNG to allow it to flow through the pipes easier. The road I was traveling on was good, except for after the T-intersection, then it turned very ice with hard packed ice with grooves in the road that could catch your tire. I slowed down to about 50km/hr, trying to be safe. However, the road still caught my tire and I spun out of control. I had no control...

What Ebenezer Scrooge was to Christmas before his awakening, liberal educators are to Thanksgiving: At the University of California, Davis, the California History-Social Science Project, which describes itself as “Resources & professional learning for K-12 history-social science,” hosted a Zoom event called “Decolonizing Thanksgiving in the Classroom.” Decolonizing means de-Americanizing this quintessentially American holiday. Other Thanksgiving events are explicitly anti-American: Massachusetts Institute of Technology students are invited to the “4th annual Thanksgiving Myth-busting” event that is aimed at “continuing our exploration of the narratives justifying land grabs via colonialism” and includes a viewing of the TV show “Buffy the Vampire...

'Someone has exposed me to man-made material; there are voices in my head controlling me,' he told officers. Police advised that Brown should seek medical attention at a hospital, but he became visibly upset by their response to his complaint. 'If I get an MRI and they see what it is, what they gonna say? We gotta get surgery and get that out so we can investigate what the f*** that is,' Brown pushed back.

Reed approached MaGee and repeatedly yelled ‘burn alive b***h,’ a criminal affidavit filed in federal court alleged. Other X users also shared footage of a speech the judge gave at a Hispanic Heritage Month event, where she said she enjoyed her previous role as a prosecutor because she had a ‘chance to decide’ what cases were prosecuted, as she often faced ‘defendants who looked like me.’

A startling new study says Artificial Intelligence may be close to replacing many jobs for humans, and many jobs occupied by lawyers as well. "AI is a wonderful tool that can help people in many amazing ways," explained lead researcher Stan Marsden. "But we worry it will soon replace a significant number of jobs that humans hold in the workplace. It might also take jobs from lawyers and other non-human entities as well." The study showed a startling trend as AI replaces human-held jobs at a faster and faster rate. Job experts worry that many humans and lawyers might be...

See video. This is really interesting.

Your life is my background noiseThey say my generation is wasting our lives watching mindless entertainment. But I think things are worse than that. We are now turning our lives into mindless entertainment. Not just consuming slop, but becoming it. We have been posting about our lives for a long time. But now I notice something else, something more than a compulsion to capture and share moments. I see people turning into TV characters, their memories into episodes, themselves into entertainment. We have become the meaningless content, swiped past and scrolled through. Experiences, relationships, even our own children, are cheapened,...

Post See new posts Conversation Eric Daugherty @EricLDaugh 🚨 JUST IN: Parents are SUING a Colorado school after their 11-year-old daughter was FORCED to share a bed with a biological male, without even telling the parents That is absolutely DISGUSTING and INFURIATING. Transgenderism has gone way too far. "Putting that person into a s*x segregated bed with a girl is just completely UNACCEPTABLE." "A young girl who's on an overnight school trip, who finds out in the moment that not only is she sharing a room with someone with male genitalia, she is in a bed with that person!" "And...

Concerns are mounting in Maryland after a male teacher was found posting TikTok videos flaunting what he describes as his pregnancy and breast-implant fetish. Although the teacher has since locked down his social media accounts, the child-safeguarding organization Gays Against Groomers saved one of the clips and reposted it on X, where it has already racked up more than 30,000 views at the time of writing. Reduxx has identified the teacher in the controversial video as James Roman Stilipec, who instructs Grade 9 English at REACH! Partnership School 341 in Baltimore. In the clip shared by Gays Against Groomers, Stilipec...

Ken Burns and PBS want to teach us the history of the American Revolution. That’s objectively laudable, but from the opening seconds of his new six-part, 12-hour-long series on the Revolution, Burns is off to a truly ludicrous start. Why do I say that? Because instead of beginning with the events that led to the break with Britain in 1775, Burns (after an anodyne quote from Thomas Paine) opens with an Indian diatribe about land.That is not surprising. Lest there be any question as to what Burns intends for us to learn about the American Revolution, Burns stated in an...

Classrooms across the European Union are about to change. A new decision folds climate education into the EU’s 2025 climate plan, from kindergarten through the end of high school in all 27 member countries. Students will not just hear about distant ice melt or heat waves. They will learn how climate science, local impacts, and job skills fit together as part of the European Union’s official response to the climate crisis. For young children, future lessons are likely to connect local weather, food, and energy use to simple climate ideas, instead of treating the subject as a one off event...
