White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki defended American colleges and universities teaching theories of systemic racism as 'responsible' on Thursday as she denied allegations that it amounted to 'liberal indoctrination.'The issue has become one of the frontline skirmishes in the country's culture wars in the wake of last year's Black Lives Matter protests.Conservatives allege that students are being taught a warped version of American history that claims the impact of slavery remains present throughout society. And Sen. Tom Cotton this week introduced a bill that would raise a 1% tax on endowments held by the country's wealthiest schools to fund job training schemes.

During President Donald Trump’s tenure, America’s veterans were cared for better than at any time in recent memory.A series of scandals during the Obama administration, including instances where vets died while waiting for care after they were removed from schedules, led Trump to pledge during his 2016 campaign ‘never again’ would our vets be neglected.One of his first veteran-related actions was to sign a measure just a few months after he took office reforming the abysmal Veterans Affairs. And things only got better from there.
On Friday, President Joe Biden accidentally admitted on camera that he would be interfering with the Department of Justice to make sure that they cannot seize records belonging to reporters. The admission raises many ethics concerns.“Would you prevent your Justice Department from doing that?” asked liberal hack CNN reporter Kaitlan Collins, referring to reporter’s records.Biden replied by saying that the practice was “absolutely, positively wrong.”“It’s simply, simply wrong,” Biden said.Biden said, “I will not let that happen,” when asked if the Justice Department would be allowed
The top federal labor arbiter smacked down a controversial Biden appointee's move to dismiss a worker's complaint against union leaders.National Labor Relations Board acting general counsel Peter Ohr attempted to withdraw the agency's support for a Texas nurse who accused union and company officials of conspiring against workers. Three members of the five-member NLRB, which enforces federal labor law, said the Biden appointee ignored "significant legal issues" the case presented."This case presents significant legal issues regarding the duty of fair representation and the appropriate framework for resolving allegations that a union breached that duty,"
Joe Biden mistakenly branded Korean President Moon Jae-in 'prime minister' a day after he called Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu 'president.'When President Biden, 78, presented 94-year-old Korean War veteran Ralph Puckett with the Medal of Honor on Friday, he said, 'The people in the Republic of Korea haven't forgotten, as evidenced by the fact that the prime minister of Korea is here for this ceremony,' The New York Post reported.Less than 24 hours earlier, Biden referred to Netanyahu as 'President Netanyahu' during his speech celebrating an Israel-Hamas cease-fire, according to The Post.
Free-world CEOs, presidents and prime ministers are now being forced by China to make fundamental choices. Do they stand for free speech, the rule of law and human rights — or for primarily making money?Over the past 30 years, Western leaders have dreamed they lived in an earthly paradise where they could stand for both. But the ruling Communist Party of China under paramount leader Xi Jinping is now making it increasingly clear that if you want to do business with his country, you’d best embrace the party line.Take Apple.The world’s most valuable brand is a powerhouse in Washington, DC, maintaining armies of lawyers and making large donations
Joe Biden met with South Korean President Moon Jae-in today.During a joint press conference, Biden made it clear that who he was calling on during the press conference had been scripted by his staff, as the Washington Examiner explained.“First question, I’m told is MaryAlice Parks, ABC,” Biden said starting the questions.At his first press conference on March 25, we also saw a lot of scripting, where Biden had a pre-selected list of reliable liberal media to call on, without any questions from someone who might ask something pressing and challenging. He had a list of reporters with their names and their pictures, with numbers when they were supposed to be
A joint White House press conference Friday with President Joe Biden and South Korean President Moon Jae-in ended with an unusual question being posed to the president and an even more unusual answer being offered in reply.After Biden said his usual “thank you” after fielding some questions, Fox News’s Peter Doocy abruptly asked him whether he had “time for one more.”“If you’re not asking me a mean one like you usually do,” the president initially replied, prompting some laughter from the mainstream press.By “mean one,” he meant a tough question instead of the relatively easy ones that are usually asked of him by members of the mainstream press.
Doug Wead, is a historian, New York Times bestselling author, and advisor to two American presidents. On Friday Doug Wead joined author and presidential historian Craig Shirley on Greg Kelly Tonight to discuss the Democrats’ latest attempts to rewrite history with their dishonest talking points on the January 6 protest and riot at the US Capitol. Democrats and their fake news cohorts are labeling the Jan 6 protests where three Trump supporters died and another was shot dead as the worst attack on the US Capitol since the War of 1812.This is of course a complete lie.Here is a list of several violent bombings and shootings inside the US Capitol
A Brooklyn middle school principal this week urged teachers and administrators to demand government sanctions against Israel — sparking outrage and a pending probe by the school system’s independent investigator, The Post has learned.In an email sent amid the since-suspended fighting between Israel and Hamas terrorists, Principal Amanda Bueno told staffers at MS 136, “If you have been watching the news in absolute horror, you are not alone.”“You can take action today by protesting, attending a vigil, making a public commitment
CNN host Don Lemon slammed the Republican party on CNN Friday, saying that they are not “operating in reality” and are “obsolete.”“Well, right now, the person who is in the White House is a Democrat,” Lemon said. “The people who are in charge of Congress are Democrats. The people who are in the majority, slightly, in the Senate, are Democrats. The only party, now, that is operating in reality, is the Democratic party.”
“The Republican party is obsolete,” he continued. “The Republican party is not dealing and living in reality. So, you cannot negotiate with a party that doesn’t operate on logic.”
The White House said Friday it would follow the same standards of justice as former Attorney General Eric Holder for how they would work with journalists.White House press secretary Jen Psaki reacted to a CNN report revealing that the Justice Department under former President Donald Trump obtained phone records of their Pentagon reporter Barbara Starr.At the White House press briefing Friday afternoon, Psaki reminded reporters that the actions took place under Trump’s administration, not after President Joe Biden took office.“They certainly intend to use the Holder model as their model, not

As reported by The Associated Press, the event was socially distanced and held at AMC Century City 15 theater in Los Angeles. Before speaking, Schwarzenegger chanted, “We are back! We are back!” He described the importance of getting movie theaters back into commission and creating the experience of attending a movie in theaters once again.
“Now it’s time to get back to the big screen,” Schwarzenegger told the audience.
President Biden promised to help Palestinians who lost their homes during 11 days of Israeli strikes on Gaza as he offered prayers Friday for a ceasefire to hold. During a press conference to mark the visit of South Korean President Moon Jae-in, he insisted he remained committed to Israeli security. But he struck a careful balance between both sides as he announced plans to help Palestinians in Gaza rebuild their lives so long as Hamas militants, who rained rockets on Israel, were not able to rebuild their armaments. 'I am prepared to put together, and am going to attempt to put together, a major package
Democrats have been flogging the image of Kamala Harris for more than six months, trying to show Americans why she should be popular, and the public isn’t buying it.The efforts and the expectations of success by Democrats say a lot about the party and their myopic view of the voters, which has cost them dearly during the last three national elections. A party that tells most voters they’re “racist” and says those same ordinary people must be cleansed of their “systemic racism” and delusions of “white supremacy” shouldn’t have to wonder why people don’t like them very much.But the Democrats keep doubling down — as they did with Harris.
Washington—President Joe Biden will host George Floyd’s family at the White House Tuesday to mark the first anniversary of his death at the hands of a white Minneapolis police officer, White House officials confirmed Friday evening. Earlier in the day, White House press secretary Jen Psaki said the president would mark the anniversary of Floyd’s death, but offered no further details on his plans.(Snip) Biden's plans to host Floyd's family come, however, as talks focused on the police reform bill named after Floyd—the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act—have stalled on Capitol Hill. Biden had previously set the anniversary of Floyd’s death
A critical race studies and ethnic studies professor at the University of Colorado-Boulder says Americans wondering why Black citizens commit anti-Asian hate crimes have an answer: “White supremacy.” The educational watchdog Campus Reform spotlighted the commentary of Jennifer Ho, which preceded President Biden’s newly signed legislation aimed at combatting hate crimes against Asian Americans. “Anti-Asian racism has the same source as anti-Black racism: White supremacy,” Ms. Ho wrote for The Conversation. “So when a Black person attacks an Asian person, the encounter is fueled perhaps by racism, but very specifically by White supremacy. White supremacy does not require a White person to perpetuate it.”
Hollywood actresses have been speaking up about how they really feel about performing on-screen sex and nudity.
Spoiler alert: They hate it.
Actress Salma Hayek recently opened up to Dax Shepard, host of the Armchair Expert Podcast, about her experience filming the iconic sex scene in her first film Desperado: “I started to sob and kept saying, ‘I don’t know that I can do it.’” She remembers holding onto the towel wrapped around her. “I would take it off for two seconds and start crying again.”
And Hayek is not the only one. Dozens of actresses have gone on record detailing traumatic experiences they had while filming sex scenes.
Oregon has gone from a liberal hell hole to 1930s Germany overnight.
The Oregon Health Authority is now requiring businesses and religious institutions to enforce mask mandates by forcing people to show proof of vaccination.
The CDC last week updated its mask guidance and said fully vaccinated people no longer need to wear masks indoors.
In order to prevent the unvaccinated from walking around unmasked, Oregon health officials are now creating a caste system by marking the unvaxxed lepers.
“Businesses, employers and faith institutions now have the option to adjust their masking guidance to allow fully vaccinated individuals to no longer wear a mask in their establishments,” OHA’s website said.
A federal judge ruled Wednesday that students of the opposite biological sex must be allowed to share shower spaces and dorms at a Christian college in Missouri.

The two jail employees tasked with guarding pedophile Jeffrey Epstein the night of his suicide in a Manhattan jail have admitted to falsifying records—but will skirt time behind bars under a deal with prosecutors. Tova Noel and Michael Thomas admitted that they “willfully and knowingly” lied on forms stating that they’d made the required rounds checking on inmates the night of Epstein’s August 2019 suicide. Prosecutors said the guards were sleeping and surfing the web when they should have been monitoring the maximum security federal prisoner, who had recently been on suicide watch at the Metropolitan Correctional Center.(Snip) Instead, the disgraced duo will
Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.), who has served since 1975 and is in the line of presidential succession, is asking colleagues to support his potential campaign for a ninth term, according to Democratic senators who have spoken to him. The 81-year-old has also indicated to them that he believes he’s “the only Democrat that can win the seat,” said a person briefed on the conversations. Given that Bernie Sanders is an independent who caucuses with Democrats, Leahy’s the only Democrat ever elected to the Senate from Vermont. If reelected, Leahy could take the record for Senate longevity in a chamber famous
It seems like a crazy urban legend: In China, drivers who have injured pedestrians will sometimes then try to kill them. And yet not only is it true, but it’s also fairly common; security cameras have regularly captured drivers driving back and forth on top of victims to make sure that they are dead. The Chinese language even has an adage for the phenomenon: “It is better to hit to kill than to hit and injure.”
In contrast in our country, BLM regularly blocks roads and in most situations, the drivers are the ones that took the hit.
