A former Southwest Airlines flight attendant who was fired after sparring with her union president over abortion won a $5.3 million jury verdict against the airline and the union Thursday.
A jury in a Dallas federal district court handed down the verdict, ruling Charlene Carter had been fired for her religious stance on abortion, which she shared to social media, and that her termination was in violation of her right to advocate against her union.
If it stands, Carter could collect $4.15 million from Southwest and $950,000 from Local 556 of the Transport Workers Union, mostly in punitive damages.
The man wanted for stabbing NASCAR star Bobby East to death in California earlier this week was gunned down by a SWAT team in Anaheim, police revealed.
East, 37, was stabbed while pumping gas in a gas station in Westminster, outside Anaheim, on Wednesday.

San Francisco’s no-nonsense new district attorney is cleaning house — as she reportedly laid off 15 staffers inherited from her booted, woke predecessor.
The firings Friday by Brooke Jenkins come nearly two weeks after she was appointed district attorney by Mayor London Breed following the recall of her much-maligned predecessor Chesa Boudin, according to SFGATE.com.
“Today, I made difficult, but important changes to my management team and staff that will help advance my vision to restore a sense of safety in San Francisco by holding serious and repeat offenders accountable and implementing smart criminal justice reforms,” Jenkins said in a statement.
U.S. District Court Judge Amit Mehta agreed Friday with defendant Peter Navarro, a former economic adviser to President Donald Trump, that his abrupt arrest by the FBI at Reagan National Airport last month for contempt of Congress was bizarre. (snip) Mehta, a former federal defender, said it was puzzling that prosecutors didn’t just tell Navarro he was going to be charged and allow him to walk into an FBI office, as some white-collar defendants are permitted to do.
Catholic League president Bill Donohue has decried the worrisome trend of black Congresswomen siding with white supremacists in pushing abortion for blacks.
“White supremacists have always championed population control for blacks, whether it be in the form of birth control or abortion,” Dr. Donohue wrote this week. “Today this cause is being led by black Congresswomen.”
Donohue went on to note that the pro-abortion movement has been rooted in white supremacy from its origins, with Margaret Sanger founding Planned Parenthood for the express purpose of “decreasing the black population.”

Mark Milley to honor his word and stop dodging questions about allegations in Bob Woodward and Robert Costa’s book Peril that he usurped President Donald Trump’s power as commander in chief after the Capitol riot on January 6, 2021, in violation of the law.

Sheriff Joe Lombardo, the Republican nominee for governor in Nevada, called on a Nevada judge to resign after making “anti-police” comments during a court hearing earlier this week.
The Nevada Globe reported that Clark County District Judge Erika Ballou, a black woman, made anti-police remarks while addressing a black defendant during a court proceeding.
“You’re the one making the decisions not to walk away from cops,” Ballou told the defendant. “You’re a black man in America. You know you don’t want to be nowhere where cops are.”
Ballou went on to say that she does not want to be “nowhere where cops are.”

This is a tragic story all the way around. (snip) An OB-GYN in Indianapolis, Dr. Caitlin Bernard, performed the abortion. (snip) Bernard filed the required abortion disclosure, known as a “terminated pregnancy” form, on July 2, two days after she performed the girl’s abortion, according to a copy of the form IndyStar received Thursday from the state health department. (snip) Also, on the disclosure form, an age for the father had to be provided. An approximate age. The doctor recorded his age as 17. That would make him a minor, too. He’s 27. Doesn’t that raise a red flag?
Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascón will fight a state Supreme Court appellate ruling that he must charge all eligible cases as mandated under California’s “three strikes” law. (snip) Deputy District Attorney Jonathan Hatami, a Gascón critic who supports the recall movement against him, said his boss issued a “blanket policy” in December 2020 forbidding strike priors to be filed in any case. "He also ordered all prosecutors to remove strike priors on any existing cases (snip) That meant child murderers, serial rapists, child molesters, sex traffickers, and police killers who were career criminals, we couldn’t use the law, look at the evidence, or even ask for an exception,"
Pope Francis said in an interview Tuesday that President Joe Biden's claims to be a faithful Catholic are "incoherent" because he publicly advocates for abortion. (snip) The Pope said in the interview with Mexican journalists from Televisa Univisión that from both a spiritual and a scientific point of view, life begins at conception, and anyone who denies that cannot coherently call himself a Catholic at the same time. He said that unborn children deserve the dignity of life (via Catholic News Agency): (snip) As for the defense of abortion by the U.S. president, Pope Francis stated that he leaves it to Biden’s "conscience.”

Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita said Wednesday that his office is investigating abortion provider Dr. Caitlin Bernard, who told the Indianapolis Star earlier this month that she treated a 10-year-old girl in Indiana because the child was unable to receive an abortion in Ohio.
"We’re gathering the information, we’re gathering the evidence as we speak, and we’re going to fight this to the end, including looking at her licensure, if she failed to report in Indiana. It's a crime to not report." Rokita told Fox News.

Joe Biden’s transgender Assistant Health Secretary Dr. Rachel (Richard) Levine and newly hired DOE employee Sam Brinton celebrated Bastille Day at the French Ambassador’s residence. Sam Brinton is a “non-binary” drag queen into “kink” with “they/them” pronouns. Brinton is also a “pup handler”–Yikes. Sam Brinton wore a blue dress with bright blue heels and Rachel Levine wore his admiral’s uniform, pantyhose and heels. “Week 4 On The Job: Champagne and Celebration with the French Ambassador in his residence for Bastille Day.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) lamented the cost of working as a member of Congress in an Instagram post despite her substantial congressional salary. Members of Congress are required to occupy one residence in Washington, D.C., as well as one in the state from which they are representing, according to the New York Democrat. This leads to "class dynamics” within Congress and causes economic strains for those who struggle to afford two residences, she argued. “It’s insanely expensive, there is no stipend or per diem for it, and you’re not allowed to write it off even though your job forces you

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s husband Paul bought up to $5 million in stock of a computer chip company ahead of a vote on a bill next week that would hand billions in subsidies to boost chip manufacturing, a financial disclosure shows.
Paul Pelosi purchased 20,000 shares of Nvidia, one of the world’s largest semiconductor companies, on June 17, according to the speaker’s disclosure report released Thursday. Now, senators will convene as early as Tuesday to vote on a bipartisan competition bill, which allocates $52 billion to boost domestic semiconductor manufacturing and gives tax credits for production, Reuters reported Thursday.
“It certainly raises the specter that Paul Pelosi could have access
Joe Biden’s cognitive function was so far gone that he was fed pills by staff supervised by his wife Jill to be able to function during the 2020 presidential campaign–and still is to this day, according to a report Friday by Fox News Channel host Tucker Carlson.Tucker Carlson: “How did he manage to get through the campaign? Well, it turned out, we learned later his staff, supervised by Dr. Jill, his wife, was giving him pills before every public appearance–checking the time and at a certain hour giving him a dose of something. Now it’s not a guess, we’re not making that up.
A new report from the Committee to Unleash Prosperity claims that most of President Biden's top officials have no business experience at all.
Economists Stephen Moore and Jon Decker analyzed the work records and resumes of 68 officials, including Biden himself and his Cabinet members, advisers and regulatory officials.
Moore has been a frequent commentator on tax issues and advised Trump on his tax plan, along with former GOP presidential candidate Herman Cain. Along with Larry Kudlow, he helped pen the Trump 2017 tax cuts.
Church: Where Are The Men?

I had breakfast in Budapest this morning with an American academic on vacation with his family. We talked about the turmoil in the world; like me, he is a Christian. He has been working in the Baltic countries for the past few years, and said that those places are beginning to re-paganize. About the Christian churches in the West, he said that it feels to him like we are at the point of the downfall of the Kingdom of Judah, just before the Jews were taken to Babylon in captivity. He said that in those days, many false prophets appeared, telling the Jews what they wanted to hear:
Spectacular and groundbreaking snapshots of the early cosmos gripped the world earlier this week when NASA released the first images from its new super space telescope.
James Webb captured an unprecedented look at a 'stellar nursery', a dying star cloaked by dust and a 'cosmic dance' between a group of galaxies, along with hints of water vapor in the atmosphere of a remote exoplanet.
What is even more exciting, however, is that astronomers say this is just 'the tip of the iceberg'.
It is hoped the $10 billion (£7.4 billion) telescope will also observe the very first stars to shine, detect habitable planets in far-away galaxies and peer back in time
This is what happens when Joe Biden’s handlers let him out of the basement.
Joe Biden on Friday delivered remarks at Augusta Victoria Hospital in East Jerusalem.
Joe Biden insulted our ally, made some gaffes and at one point he had a coughing fit.
“My background and the background of my family is Irish American and we have a long history not fundamentally unlike the Palestinian people, with Great Britain and their attitude toward Irish Catholics over the years for 400 years,” said Biden while he was in East Jerusalem.
President Joe Biden said he would take "strong executive action" on climate change following the apparent failure of Senate Democrats to reach a deal on major green energy legislation. The pledge is a response to news that Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin, a centrist of West Virginia who has been the main holdout in Democrat-only reconciliation process, said he isn't prepared to support new climate spending and tax hikes right now because of high inflation. (Snip) He added that actions he would take "will create jobs, improve our energy security, bolster domestic manufacturing and supply chains, protect us from oil and
Michelle Obama’s Changing Sexual Identity

In promoting my new film and accompanying book, Michelle Obama 2024: Her Real Life Story and Plan for Power, I am asked one question far more often than any other. Is Michelle Obama a dude? In fact, it’s everywhere! Here is a sample of reader comments from Jack Cashill’s recent review of my film in [edited]:
Big Mike's born-with XY chromosomes
Michelle Obama IS NOT A WOMAN but a Man in Drag
Blatantly obvious Trannie
A drag queen President? Are you kidding? In my research on Barack and Michelle Obama, an exercise the major media have avoided, I find myself having to deal with this rumor as well as those about Barack’s sexual orientation.
Headlines lately have not been encouraging for the faithful. A Gallup poll shows that the percentage of Americans who believe in God has fallen to 81 percent—a drop of 10 percent over the last decade and an all-time low. This accelerating trend is especially pronounced among young adults. (Snip)
Perhaps surprisingly, our survey discovered that the perceived message of science has played a leading role in the loss of faith. We found that scientific theories about the unguided evolution of life have, in particular, led more people to reject belief in God than worries about suffering, disease, or death.
