Calling Hamas a "terrorist" organization, illegal immigration a "cancer" and people who illegally immigrate "illegal aliens" is no longer punishable speech at taxpayer-funded schools in California and North Carolina, under settlements to resolve litigation this month.In a third quadrant of America, Eastern Maine Community College didn't wait for litigation before replacing a professor who called a Christian student a hypocrite for defending the Second Amendment in a debate assignment, and twice ordered...

    Former Epstein Attorney Reveals Names Of 2 Dems On ‘List’ Former Harvard Law professor Alan Dershowitz named two former top Democratic officials on Sunday, whom he says appear in the Epstein files. Speaking to Fox News Sunday host Shannon Bream, Dershowitz clarified that there was never an official “client list,” but noted that names can be uncovered through other means and that additional information is available. Dershowitz previously served on Jeffrey Epstein’s legal team during his 2008 case, in which Epstein pleaded guilty to soliciting prostitution from a minor. “Are [the names] in the grand jury transcripts, and do you...

    Former Harvard law professor and veteran trial attorney Alan Dershowitz — who represented notorious pedophile Jeffrey Epstein in his 2008 criminal case — said during a recent appearance on Fox News that at least two prominent Democrats are named in files relating to the case. While speaking with host Shannon Bream on “Fox News Sunday,” Dershowitz stated that while the Epstein “client list” does not exist in the way it has been built up in some corners of the internet, there are other ways to reveal the names of individuals who were potentially involved in Epstein’s crimes. ““Are [the names]...

    For a party with such distrust in the mainstream media, Republicans certainly put a lot of stock in the headlines about PEPFAR. While thousands of people would most certainly not die from the targeted cuts to the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief, Senate Republicans are determined to keep throwing taxpayer dollars at the Democrats’ woke programs in the name of “foreign aid.” In a blow to Donald Trump’s goal to end government bloat and abuse, moderate senators — led by Susan Collins (R-Maine) — threw a tantrum over the White House’s plan to shave a fraction ($400 million) of...

    Passengers were stranded in a “war zone” at a Maine airport for over 17 hours after their flight was diverted due to a pair of butt-huffing bozos puffing cigarettes on board. Passengers were stranded in Bangor, Maine, for over 17 hours after their TUI Airways flight from Cancun, Mexico, to London, UK, was diverted due to a couple smoking on board. “It was like a war zone in a lounge — rows and rows of beds,” passenger Terry Lawrance said while painting the dismal scene in Bangor, Maine (pictured). “Everybody was fed up,” UK native Terry Lawrance, 66, told Southwest...

    Senate Republicans blasted through Democratic and internal opposition to pass President Donald Trump’s multibillion-dollar clawback package early Thursday morning. The final vote tally was 51-48, with Republican Sens. Susan Collins of Maine and Lisa Murkowski of Alaska joining every Democrat in voting against it. The package will now be sent to the House, which has until Friday to pass it. The $9 billion rescissions bill tees up cuts to "woke" spending on foreign aid programs and NPR and PBS that Congress previously approved. Republicans have pitched the bill as building on their quest to root out waste, fraud and abuse...

    A violent suspect who was arrested trying to shut down a pro-Daniel Penny rally in Manhattan was out on bond for a leftist domestic terrorism case in Atlanta. Teresa Yue Shen, 31, of Brooklyn, was one of several far-left militants charged with domestic terrorism in January in Atlanta, following a deadly shooting incident at an Antifa-linked autonomous zone occupation at the heart of the “Stop Cop City” movement. Shen’s $20,000 bond was fronted by far-left activist Daniel Hanley. The Atlanta Solidarity Fund, a project of 501(c)(3) nonprofit Network For Strong Communities, has been raising cash for Antifa and domestic terrorism...

    Nothing will ever be easy with congressional Republicans. The reconciliation package aged all of us 35 years, as Sen. John Thune (R-SD) and Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) had to whip votes, hold the line, and make some phone calls. President Trump was also working the phones heavily when final passage was at stake in the House. Republican leadership held the line, but with Rep. Mark Green (R-TN) retiring after the reconciliation vote, delivering what’s left of the Trump agenda before the 2026 midterms is about to get even tougher. The House did its job and passed the rescission package, but...

    The Satanic Temple plans to open an abortion center in Maine on June 14, 2025, named “The President’s Yuge Most Beautiful Tremendous Satanic Abortion Clinic” in a mocking nod to President Donald Trump’s birthday. “We hope he receives this clinic’s distinguished title as the magnificent, regal birthday present it is intended to be,” said Satanic Temple executive director Erin Helian in a press release. The facility, part of the temple’s TST Health network, will sell dangerous abortion-inducing drugs by mail and instruct women to perform a “Satanic Abortion Ritual” involving chants that pro-life advocates denounce as evil and morally repugnant....

Suazo, a 21-year-old Boston resident, was found by a passerby around 11:45 a.m. on Sunday, June 1, in Milton, Mass, which is approximately 8 miles south from the capitol city, according to a press release from the Norfolk District Attorney’s Office.

    A Maine family’s then-five-year-old son was vaccinated in November 2021 with the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine at a public school without his parents’ consent. After the family filed suit, the Maine Supreme Judicial Court ruled that their state claims for damages were pre-empted by the federal Public Readiness and Emergency Preparedness (PREP) Act, holding that their parental rights to consent and their child’s right to bodily integrity were not violated. By Petition for Writ of Certiorari to the United States Supreme Court dated June 2, 2025, the Hogan family has requested that the U.S. Supreme Court review their case.Most Americans trust...

    Maine recently updated its drug labeling law to shield physicians who prescribe abortion pills, allowing the prescribers to list their healthcare facility instead of their names on the label. Local ABC affiliate WMTW reported that Gov. Janet Mills, a Democrat, signed the bill May 29, two days after both chambers of Maine’s legislature approved it. The bill covers abortion drugs mifepristone, misoprostol, and their generic alternatives. According to WMTW, Mills has a history of shielding physicians and healthcare workers who commit abortions. Last year, she signed a bill that bans other states from taking legal action against abortionists or those...

    If recent history is any guide, the party that canceled common sense may be canceled by the voters it took for granted. If Democrats in Vacationland thought the censure of Rep. Laurel Libby would put an end to the education policy debate surrounding Title IX—and the participation of biological men in women’s sports—they’ve misread the moment, misread federal law, and badly misread their voters. What was meant to silence dissent has only amplified it. What was supposed to end the debate has cracked it wide open. In March, I wrote about how Democrats’ schizophrenic treatment of women’s sports—both existential and...

    The U.S. Supreme Court ordered the Maine state legislature to revoke its censure of GOP state representative Laurel Libby on Tuesday. Libby has been censured since Feb. 15 for a social media post that identified a transgender Maine high school athlete who won a girls' pole vault competition. In a 7-2 decision, the court ruled that Libby's entitlement to relief from the censure is "indisputably clear." The GOP lawmaker celebrated the Supreme Court decision in an X post. "This is a victory not just for my constituents, but for the Constitution itself. The Supreme Court has affirmed what should NEVER...
