WASHINGTON (TNND) — Department of Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said that a transgender teacher, who “identified” as a wolf, was fired from his position as a pre-K and Kindergarten substitute teacher and teacher’s aide at an elementary school located on Fort Bragg military base. “The ‘Wolf’ was fired 2 weeks ago,” Hegseth wrote on X. His post included a link to an article written by Christian Broadcasting Group, which detailed the bizarre and unsettling behaviors of the substitute teacher toward the students. Military parents of the Mildrid E. Poole elementary school students said that the teacher, a biological male, would...

Montgomery County, Maryland, Board of Education must pay $1.5 million in damages to Becket’s clients and comply with court-enforced protections for parental rights following the Supreme Court’s landmark ruling inMahmoud v. Taylor. The case arose after the School Board took away parental notice and opt-outs for storybooks that promote gender transitioning, Pride parades, and pronoun preferences to children as young as three and four (Watch this podcast episode to learn more). Becket represented a diverse coalition of religious parents including Muslims, Christians, and Jews, who successfully challenged the policy at the Supreme Court. In the Court’s 6-3 ruling last summer,...

Striking San Francisco teachers have demanded parents avoid homeschooling their children to help support their push for higher wages and better conditions. More than 50,000 children were kept home on Monday and Tuesday after teachers walked off the job and joined picket lines, demanding a nine per cent raise over two years and subsidized family health care, which the cash-strapped San Francisco School District claims it can’t afford. And with the strike set to drag into a Wednesday, local parents are now fuming after teachers emailed them and asked them not to encourage any home study. The district — which...

Let's see how things are going in the communist utopia of New York, a month after Democratic Socialist Zohran Mamdani was sworn in as mayor. Nearly two weeks after a massive winter storm hit the Big Apple, mountains of garbage line the still snow-covered streets (but not around Gracie Mansion, of course), and at least a dozen homeless people have frozen to death after Mamdani refused to force them into warming shelters despite the bitter cold. There were also blackouts, which is great when it's freezing outside.Oh, and the number of antisemitic incidents in the city has skyrocketed, and Mamdani...

The head of the Minneapolis teachers union said in a recent interview that elected officials are involved in anti-ICE agitation in the city."The notion that people that are actively engaged in ICE watch, in being vigilant in protecting our neighbors, in Signal chat groups, running plates, in their cars doing patrols — that somehow we're ashamed of that activity, that somehow you can call our bosses and show our faces and then we would be shunned by our community..." Marcia Howard told Al Jazeera in an interview that aired last week.Howard is the president of the Minneapolis Federation of Educators,...

With the National Education Association being thrust into the spotlight after increasing its public opposition against the Trump administration and having been accused of financially backing far-left agenda items, two Republicans are taking steps to revoke its federal charter. The National Education Association holds a rare distinction in Washington, D.C., as the only labor union granted a federal charter, a status it received from Congress in 1906, and critics have argued that the functions of the NEA then and now are much different. Republican Reps. Buddy Carter and Mary Miller have been vocal critics of the NEA in recent years...

Detransitioners have struggled to bring malpractice cases to trial. By the time regret emerges, it often comes after the statute of limitations has passed for civil actions. In White Plains, New York, a 22-year-old victim of medical maiming managed to get her case in front of a jury in time, in what appears to be the first detransitioner lawsuit to proceed to a verdict and judgment. Fox Varian got a $2 million judgment, a story that nearly no one except Benjamin Ryan and Stacy Robinson at the Epoch Times covered in any depth: BREAKING: 1st Detransitioner to Take a Medical-Malpractice...

When Renee Good drove her car into an ICE agent earlier this month, the left tried to gaslight us into believing she was just some innocent bystander who was just at the wrong place, that she’d just dropped her son off at school and wasn’t supposed to be there. That narrative fell apart fast. Good, we soon learned, was a trained anti-ICE agitator who was absolutely there to obstruct law enforcement. Now we're watching the same playbook unfold with 37-year-old Alex Pretti, the armed agitator shot dead by Border Patrol agents on Saturday in Minneapolis while confronting agents. The talking...

The Chicago Teachers Union (CTU) has been forced to delete a post urging the 'ultra-wealthy' to fully fund city schools after it was mocked online for misspelling 'governor.' On Tuesday, the CTU posted a flyer across X, Facebook and TikTok calling on the public to push state leaders to tax billionaires, months after a report found the district is $1.6 billion short of necessary funding, according to Chicago Public Media. A damning report revealed that last year, over half of Chicago students couldn't read at grade level, and nearly three-quarters failed to reach math proficiency on state tests, according to...

WASHINGTON — America’s largest teachers’ union accused Republicans of promoting “racist and transphobic troupes” in teaching materials for an upcoming training program, according to documents obtained by a conservative activist group. The National Education Association is hosting a training from Dec. 2-4 at an undisclosed location called “Advancing LGBTQ+ Justice and Transgender Advocacy” aimed at dismantling “strategic racism and transphobia,” the group Defending Education uncovered.

FIRST ON FOX: One of the top teachers unions in the country is facing criticism over an upcoming training session that will instruct members on how to go through a gender transition at work, including best practices for using gender pronouns and combating transphobia, while also being provided with literature labeling conservative opposition as "villains."

@AndrewKolvet on X: Concerned parents just sent us this image of what’s believed to be teachers in @vailschools. in Tuscon, Arizona mocking Charlie’s murder with costumes that read “Problem Solved” and blood down the left side of their shirts.

Photos circulating online show several teachers wearing white shirts splattered with red stains over the left side—the same area where Kirk was fatally shot in September—along with the phrase “Problem...

Even as congressional Democrats hang tough on their demands for an Obamacare subsidy extension deal before they’ll agree to a reopening of the federal government, one of their most conspicuous allies in this standoff, the American Federation of Government Employees, has asked them to call it all off. AFGE is the largest federal employee union, representing approximately 820,000 workers across many agencies. This is not the first time AFGE has called for an end to the government shutdown, but it is the first time the union has backed the approved GOP avenue for getting out of the mess: a “clean...

Nicholas Roske, 26, is from Simi Valley, California. A LinkedIn page in the name of Nicholas Roske of Simi Valley says that he worked as an office manager at a pest control company.

The suspect also goes by the names Nicholas Roske and Nick...

Conservatives have been successfully calling on teachers to be fired for justifying Charlie Kirk's murder A conservative political action committee launched an effort to expose teachers across the country justifying Charlie Kirk’s assassination online and is pushing back on claims from the left that conservatives are being hypocritical about free speech. Stefano Forte, executive director of 1776 Project PAC, spoke to Fox News digital about the new form live on the organization’s website where users can flag teachers and administrators who have justified Kirk’s killing online, a form he says has already yielded an "endless stream of tips." "Many people...
