Four years ago, the Journal of the American Psychoanalytic Association published an article by Dr. Donald Moss, a New York psychoanalyst, titled “On Having Whiteness.” There, in a flagship journal of a supposedly scientific discipline, Dr. Moss laid out his thesis in tones more suited to medieval demonology than modern psychology. “Whiteness is a condition one first acquires and then one has,” he wrote, describing it as a “malignant, parasitic-like condition” that induces in its hosts “voracious, insatiable, and perverse” appetites. The article, deeply disturbing on both moral and intellectual grounds, was not rejected as inflammatory pseudo-science, but rather published,...

If there is no emotional connection to their own children, how could there ever be a desire for peace, coexistence, and mutual respect for the Israeli people? Speaking to the children of Jenin in their native Arabic language, N12 Israeli television reporter Ohad Hemo confirmed what we’ve all known for a long time: the realization of why there can never be peace between Israel and the so-called Palestinians who live in Samaria. With special permission from the IDF, Hemo made his way through the rubble, which was once home to 14,000 people who lived in the Jenin Palestinian refugee camp,...

Once upon a time, it was fairly common for highly educated men in the United States to marry less-educated women. But beginning in the mid-20th century, as more women started to attend college, marriages seemed to move in a more egalitarian direction, at least in one respect: A greater number of men and women started partnering up with their educational equals. That trend, however, appears to have stalled and even reversed in recent years. Gaps in educational experience among heterosexual couples are growing again. And this time? It’s women who are “marrying down.”

Earlier this month, the co-founder of one of the country’s first legal abortion facilities, Horace Hale Harvey III, died. Harvey had founded the Women’s Medical Group (later renamed Women’s Services) in 1970 in Manhattan; at that time it was the largest freestanding abortion facility in the world. But it is Harvey’s co-founder in the abortion business — staunch environmentalist Barbara Pyle — who, while only briefly mentioned in tributes to Harvey, ideologically influenced an entire generation of children. Barbara Pyle As Live Action News previously reported, Pyle told the New York Times in a 1971 interview that the abortion facility...

It’s not like we didn’t know this already, but college-educated white women are the scourge of society. They’re political maniacs with views so left-wing you’d think it’s satire. They’re all about being ‘woke,’ DEI, and other lunacies that don’t have a positive reception outside of a college faculty lounge. NBC News broke it down. The white vote remains crucial, and that will be the case in future elections, despite liberal America’s persistent claim that white voters, especially white men, won’t matter. It’s an assumption that was brutally gutted in 2024. Yet, this is a core Democratic Party voter bloc, so...

Over the last three decades, elite American universities have engaged in economic, political, social, and cultural practices that were often unethical, illegal -- and suicidal. They did so with impunity. Apparently, confident administrators assumed that the brand of Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Stanford, and other elite universities was so precious to the nation's elite movers and shakers that they could always do almost anything they wished. By the 1970s, non-profit universities had dropped pretenses that they were apolitical and non-partisan. Instead, they customarily violated the corpus of iconic civil rights legislation by weighing race, gender, and sexual orientation in biased admissions,...

A photo from the Jenin area reveals: a swastika is proudly affixed to one of the pillars on the street • In recent days, the IDF has been expanding its activities in northern Samaria as part of Operation "Iron Wall," which is intended to thwart terrorism in the area. A photo from the Jenin area reveals: a swastika proudly plastered on one of the street pillars. Our reporter Hillel Biton Rosen commented on this on his Twitter account: "There is no difference between the Arabs in Gaza and those in Judea and Samaria and East Jerusalem, where the phenomenon of...

A school board meeting descended into chaos during an argument over an LGBTQ pride book that was made available to children in kindergarten. The book, titled 'The Rainbow Parade', illustrates a young child and her two moms attending a pride parade together, where they see men in bondage holding hands and a near naked person walking the streets alone. Outraged parents from Penfield Central School in New York attended a board meeting on Tuesday night in an effort to voice their concerns, but were shut down by officials who refused to listen.

A high school in Wisconsin has come under fire and is facing potential legal action after girls at the school complained of a biological male claiming to be transgender, using their locker rooms, exposing his p*nis, and allegedly masturbating with lotion that he says is to “prevent chafing.” The school district reportedly voted to allow biological boys to compete in girls’ sports and use girls’ locker rooms and restrooms earlier this month. Kenosha County Eye, a local media outlet, reported on the allegations from female students’ parents at the Westosha Central High School in Paddock Lake, Wisconsin. One girl claims...

If anyone in the future cares enough to write an authentic history of the 2024 presidential campaign, they might begin by noting that American politics exists downstream of American culture, which is a deep and broad river. Like any river, American culture follows a particular path, which has been reconfigured at key moments by new technologies. In turn, these technologies, which redefine both space and time—canals and lakes, the postal system, the telegraph, railroads, radio and later television, the internet, and most recently the networking of billions of people in real time on social media platforms—set the rules by which...

If you have kids or ever were a kid yourself, you know that Barbie and G.I. Joe don't have genitalia. But wouldn't it be great if you could slap a penis on Barbie? The University of Minnesota is working with transgender and gender-diverse artists to make that possible with their line of "MyGender Dolls." They're very inclusive: they come in all skin tones and body types, along with lots and lots of clothing options. The university is looking to expand the program, as they explain in the fundraising video below: BREAKING: @UMNews is rolling out a project called “MyGender Dolls”...

WASHINGTON (AP) — Throughout his campaign, President-elect Donald Trump heaped scorn on the federal Department of Education, describing it as being infiltrated by “ radicals, zealots and Marxists.” He has picked Linda McMahon, a former wrestling executive, to lead the department. But like many conservative politicians before him, Trump has called for dismantling the department altogether — a cumbersome task that likely would require action from Congress. The agency's main role is financial. Annually, it distributes billions in federal money to colleges and schools and manages the federal student loan portfolio. Closing the department would mean redistributing each of those...

On Nov. 6, the day after a national election that sent Donald Trump back to the White House, Elijah Graham and Owen King, who attend high schools on opposite sides of the Willamette River, were each greeted by the same Turkish proverb posted on their classroom bulletin boards: “When a clown moves into a palace, the clown does not become a king—the palace becomes a circus.” A similar mood met students across Portland that Wednesday morning. “The air was pretty intense,” says Camila Sahagun, a sophomore at Lincoln High School. Connor Jacobsen, a senior at Benson Polytechnic High School,...

A report showed that nearly 70% of enforcement actions executed by the Biden administration’s Education Department targeted faith-based and career schools. A report showed that nearly 70% of enforcement actions executed by the Biden administration’s Education Department targeted faith-based and career schools… “As our report details, the Biden-Harris Department of Education has been engaged in a long-running scheme to punish Christian colleges that are ideologically opposed to the left’s agenda. The unfair targeting of these institutions has been egregious, and it needs to stop immediately.” The APP notes that two of the nation’s most prominent Christian universities, Grand Canyon University...

As is well-known, politics is the art of influencing behavior. As is also well-known, America’s institutions of higher education uniformly behave with a political orientation that renders them exponents of leftism, socialism, communism, and antisemitism. President-Elect Donald Trump is determined to extinguish that behavior. He’s identified a vehicle for doing so, too: The role played by educational accreditation agencies for colleges and universities under the Higher Education Act of 1965 (Public Law 89-329). Under the HEA, the Department of Education approves accrediting agencies that the Secretary of Education determines to be reliable authorities regarding the quality of education or training...

On November 5, America resoundingly rejected the hateful race rhetoric and divisive lies of Democrat identity politics. This included record numbers of black and Hispanic voters disenchanted by the election-year promises of Democrats that translate into deteriorating economic opportunities for racial minorities. But Bernie-blue Vermont didn’t get the memo, and has continued to shamelessly push anti-MAGA propaganda spewed by the mainstream media — in public schools, by paid teachers. A Vermont newspaper proclaimed almost triumphantly how the teachers were soothing the children with Huxleyan hate propaganda: In the wake of a presidential election that will send Donald Trump back to...

University of California (UC) San Diego has introduced a mandatory program for all new students, regardless of major: “Climate Change Education.” The graduation requirement, officially named the Jane Teranes Climate Change Education Requirement (JTCCER) after a Scripps Institution of Oceanography professor who died in July 2022, was implemented this fall, the school announced in a press release. The initiative was “designed to ensure that undergraduates across all majors on campus are equipped to understand and address climate change,” the university said. Over 7,000 first-year students will need to complete a one-quarter course from a list approved by the UC San...

A “social justice academy” run by a California school district teaches elementary school kids to disavow “whiteness” and embrace transgender ideology, lesson plans shared with The Daily Wire show. Every summer since 2021, the New Haven Unified School District in San Francisco has trained rising 3rd-6th graders in leftist gender and racial politics during its annual “social justice academy.” Specific details about the academy’s curriculum were revealed in documents recently obtained from the school by Parents Defending Education through a public records request. “Scholars will define and critically think about Social Justice, identify social injustices in the community, and create...
