    South Carolina Democratic Rep. James Clyburn funneled six figures worth of campaign cash to two of his family members throughout the 2022 election cycle, filings show. The longtime congressman's campaign largesse included forking tens of thousands of dollars over to a company linked to his son-in-law. He also sent nearly $100,000 to his grandson, Federal Election Commission records show. While it's legal for federal politicians to pay family members from their campaigns, ethics experts have generally disapproved of the practice. Despite this, both political parties have taken advantage of the perk. Clyburn's family payments the last election cycle include $57,500...

    In 2021, the two largest teachers’ unions in the country collected over half a billion dollars from their members, and almost all of their political spending went to leftist causes. While 57 percent of the American Federation of Teachers (AFT) and the National Education Association (NEA) membership is either Republican or independent, nearly 100 percent of political spending of the $575 million in dues was funneled into far-left politics.

    Saudi-funded dhimmi pseudo-academic Islamic apologist John Esposito working with Hamas-linked CAIR to destroy the freedom of speech, cover up the truth about the global jihad and Islamic supremacism. It's ironic: Islamic supremacist critics sometimes point to my working outside of academia as if it were some indication that what I say isn't true. But in reality, it's the universities that are bought and paid for by Islamic supremacist interests. The only honest work on Islam and jihad is taking place almost completely outside of academia these days. "PJM Exclusive: Georgetown U.

    TULSA, Okla. - More than $1 billion a year was inappropriately funneled through Oral Roberts University, a lawsuit by a former senior accountant at the scandal-plagued school alleges. Trent Huddleston claims in a lawsuit filed Thursday in Tulsa County District Court that he discovered an "unrestricted" account used to funnel "unusually large" sums of money through the university each month — which would exceed $1 billion on an annual basis — that wasn't used for any legitimate university purpose. He says he was discharged because school officials feared he would reveal that the account existed. Huddleston, who was hired in...
