The FBI cancelled a mandatory sexual orientation and gender identity course in 2021 after agents protested being tested on their knowledge of “transgender descriptors,” a suspended FBI agent told the Daily Caller.
The test, sponsored by the Office of Diversity and Inclusion (ODI), intended to boost agents’ awareness of the LGBT community and show how to be “an ally for LGBT+ colleagues,” documents provided to the Daily Caller show.
The 56-page test showed guidance on the definitions of gender identities and sexual orientations, how to write or talk about a transgender person, how to use the word “queer,” what one can ask an LGBT person and how to use pronouns.
Twitter has allegedly stopped paying rent at its San Francisco headquarters as Elon Musk looks to slash costs across the social media giant.
Billionaire Musk has also supposedly mulled not paying severance to the thousands of employees fired since his $44billion takeover of the company in October.
Sources told the New York Times it's been weeks since rent was pair at both the San Francisco office and Twitter's offices around the world.
Musk has been quibbling over nearly every penny since he purchased Twitter. In addition to selling off furniture from the company's San Francisco office, he has refused to pay unpaid travel costs which were wracked up by employees
Kari Lake appeared in court today for an Emergency Hearing in her lawsuit against Katie Hobbs and Maricopa County Elections officials, contesting the stolen Midterm Election in Arizona.

President Joe Biden signed a bill making same-sex marriage legal nationwide on Tuesday, describing it as a victory for freedom in America.
“There is nothing more decent, more dignified, more American about what we are doing here today,” Biden said during his speech at the White House before the signing.
The White House pulled out all the stops for the event, featuring several speakers, four musical performances, and remarks from House Speaker Nancy Pelosi Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, and Vice President Kamala Harris. Thousands of activists and Democrats cheered throughout the event. that was over an hour and 40 minutes long and included performances from singers Cyndi Lauper and Sam Smith.
The Associated Press recently put out an “abortion topical guide” for journalists — guidance which pro-lifers say “demonstrate[s] even further the extent of the media’s bias in favor of abortion.”
The Associated Press is notably the most used stylebook used by news outlets of all political affiliations and influences how many journalists choose to word and frame various issues. The news organization’s updated abortion guidelines include advising journalists to use the terms “abortion rights” and “anti-abortion,” while foregoing other terms like “pro-life, pro-choice, or pro-abortion.”
The organization additionally advises journalists against using the term “abortionist” because it supposedly “connotes a person who performs clandestine abortions.”

There is only one day left before millions of Social Security beneficiaries receive a direct payment worth an average of $1,681.
This payment, intended for retirees, will be sent in three waves, with people who have their birthdays between the 1st and the 10th of a month getting paid first on Dec. 14. Payments for retirees always begin on the second Wednesday of a month, with later payments being sent on the following Wednesdays, according to the Social Security Administration.

Soon-to-be retired infectious disease guru Dr. Anthony Fauci sat down with CNN’s David Axelrod to discuss Twitter CEO Elon Musk’s attacks against him, insisting they aren’t worth reacting to and then hypocritically proceeding to slam Twitter as a “cesspool of interaction.” (Snip) “The Axe Files” segment with Fauci comes out Thursday but CNN cut a teaser showing the response from him and discussing with Axelrod just how upset he was over the attacks by Musk.

Prince William and Kate Middleton are getting into the holiday spirit.
On Tuesday, the Prince and Princess of Wales shared a new photo of their family — including their kids Prince George, 9, Princess Charlotte, 7, and Prince Louis, 4 — for their 2022 Christmas card.
“Sharing a new picture of the family for this year’s Christmas card!” they captioned the new snap, posted on their social media account.

Last week, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis reportedly told a meeting of the Republican Party of Florida that his team would be looking for ways to hold the COVID-19 vaccine makers accountable for side effects and health problems tied to their products.

Jimmy Kimmel's attack on Elon Musk was about as unfunny as one would expect.
Kimmel said, "Elon Musk seems to be intent on filling the troll hole vacated by Donald Trump. Because yesterday, he wrote ‘My pronouns are Prosecute and Fauci.’ (snip)
Well, when it comes to terrible jokes, Kimmel is an expert.
That pronoun thing is such "small-minded, lowest-common denominator garbage" that Kimmel indilged in it.
But there is a mustard seed of truth in his statement. Musk has replaced Trump as a surrogate for real Americans who are tired of being screwed by the federal government and mocked by the media. He is not a conservative.

At one point, Hunter Biden himself happened to call into the meeting, connecting briefly by video to add his own thoughts.
Just when you thought our politics could not get more poisonous, a recent meeting in California suggests the past is mere prelude.

Earlier today, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell discussed the greatest problem for the Republican Party as it exists with voters. Allowing people to vote is not in the best interests of the Republican Party. If the politicians could just devise a government system that didn’t need voters to support it, things would be much better.
As noted by Mitch McConnell, “Our ability to control the primary outcome was quite limited in 2022 because of the support of the former president. Hopefully in the next cycle, we’ll have quality candidates everywhere.”
The Washington Post quietly scrubbed the word “conservative” from its description of the center-left reporters behind the viral “Twitter Files” after being called out for the inaccurate wording.

Arizona Sen. Kyrsten Sinema decided to shake up the political world on Friday by becoming an independent. The former Democrat is still caucusing with the party in the Senate, so the Democratic caucus still has 51 members. Now, instead of 49 Democrats and two independents within their ranks, the caucus has 48 Democrats and three independents.
But that simple math hides a more clouded picture for Democrats and for Sinema herself. Sinema’s interests are no longer necessarily the Democrats’ best interests in the next Congress, and the 2024 Senate map became even more complicated for Democrats with Sinema’s decision.

The eight charges form the bedrock of the attempt by U.S. prosecutors to pursue Bankman-Fried for his alleged crimes. Federal prosecutors say that Bankman-Fried had been engaging in criminal activity as far back as 2019.
