Texas Strips American Bar Of Law School
Oversight After ‘Unlawful Discrimination’ Complaints
Posted By: Beardo, 1/12/2026 10:45:30 PM
Law schools in Texas will no longer need the American Bar Association’s (ABA) approval after the state supreme court ruled this month that the organization will no longer have the final say on accreditation. Approval of law schools now rests with the Texas Supreme Court, according to the Jan. 6 ruling. Concerns over ABA’s objectivity have been growing in recent months, and U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi in February 2025 even accused the organization of subjecting law schools and students “to unlawful race and sex discrimination under the guise of ‘diversity’ mandates” by forcing schools to ensure their student and staff bodies are “diverse with respect to gender, race, and ethnicity.”

A lawsuit filed late last month took Chicago-based McDonald's to task over the McRib sandwich, calling its name a form of false advertising. (snip) The lawsuit said McDonald's has "cultivated a sense of anticipation around the McRib, leveraging its scarcity to drive sales across its many locations."
As CBS News has reported before, the notorious 520-calorie sandwich contains just five simple ingredients: seasoned boneless pork dipped in BBQ sauce, sliced onions, and dill pickles in a toasted homestyle bun.
We've told you quite a bit about Cea Weaver, the housing/tenant advisor to New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani. Weaver has very strong opinions on homeownership, private property, and white people. You can read about her scary Marxist beliefs in-depth here. Still, the Cliff Notes version is this: homeownership is a tool of white supremacy, she wants to abolish private property, and she hates white people (Weaver apparently hasn't looked in a mirror recently). (snip) Turns out Weaver's mom owns a $1.6 million home in Tennessee.

Somali cash in luggage leaving Minneapolis airport 9 replies
The Transportation Security Administration flagged nearly $700 million in cash detected in passengers’ luggage leaving the Minneapolis airport the last two years, a massive cash exodus believed to be tied to Somali immigrants and their money couriers, Homeland Security officials told Just the News.
The officials said the cash movements out of Minnesota’s largest airport began about a decade ago – around the time Democrat Gov. Tim Walz took office – and has grown substantially in recent years.
Just as the heat turns up on massive daycare fraud in Minnesota, a Somali-run daycare in Minneapolis claims that someone conveniently broke in during the early morning hours, smashed up a wall, and walked off with the one thing investigators would care about most: records on employees and children. Not cash. Not electronics. “Important documentation.”
The manager, Nasrulah Mohamed, claims the Nokomis Day Care Center was hit sometime between 3 a.m. and 6 a.m., with a damaged door, interior vandalism, and missing files on kids and staff.
California’s outrageous law hiding “gender transitions” of kids from parents just took a massive hit in a district court ruling.
The California law mandating that teachers hide gender transitions from parents if the parents do not support radical LGBTQ ideology is unconstitutional, as a new U.S. District Court ruling from Judge Roger Benitez found.
Legal expert Jonathan Turley noted that the U.S. Supreme Court has repeatedly cited inherent parental rights, and that Benitez relied on one such ruling in issuing his own decision.
The United States is now pursuing a third oil tanker linked to Venezuela, escalating a maritime enforcement campaign that intensified just one day after U.S. forces seized another vessel operating in the Caribbean.
As I reported yesterday, American authorities boarded and seized a tanker earlier this month as part of a broader crackdown on sanctioned oil shipments tied to the Maduro regime. That operation now appears to be only the beginning.
There have been a couple of fascinating developments that touch upon two subjects I cover for Legal Insurrection: California and nuclear power. (snip) So, as presumptive 2028 candidate Gavin Newsom prepares for his campaign’s official launch, there is some pre-planning to avoid the embarrassment of statewide brownouts or blackouts during his run. Such an event would give Newsom’s adversaries both within and outside the Democratic Party a big target that would resonate with many Americans, who no longer believe the “climate crisis” narrative.

The FBI secretly deployed more than 250 plainclothes agents to the U.S. Capitol during the Jan. 6, 2021 riot, an operation so disorganized it unleashed searing frustrations among many of the FBI's rank-and-file that the bureau had lost its core competencies to "wokeness" and allowed its employees to become “pawns in a political war,” according to an after-action report kept from the public for more than four years.

Former FBI Director James Comey was indicted by a federal grand jury Thursday on charges of making false statements and obstruction of justice.
“No one is above the law,” Attorney General Pam Bondi said in a statement on X. “Today’s indictment reflects this Department of Justice’s commitment to holding those who abuse positions of power accountable for misleading the American people. We will follow the facts in this case.”
A Virginia high school violated the free speech rights of students when it named its school after Confederate Army General Stonewall Jackson, a federal judge ruled recently.
The Virginia NAACP sued Shenandoah County’s school board over its decision in 2024 to bring back the name “Stonewall Jackson” for its high school. In 2020, the school board changed the name to “Mountain View.”
The American Journal of Economics and Sociology recently removed special editor Marty Rowland from his position for publishing a paper refuting climate change argument about carbon dioxide, according to the paper’s authors.
“The standard response of the mainstream climate science community these days to papers that somewhat challenge the CO2-is-dangerous-narrative is to immediately ask for retraction,” Marcel Crok, a co-author of the paper and director of the climate science group Clintel, told The College Fix.

As U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents surged into Minneapolis, Minnesota, one local McDonald’s made a public display against the upholding of federal immigration law.
The Daily Wire posted an image of the sign, which was captioned “NO ICE ACCESS IN THIS BUSINESS,” to social media platform X on Thursday afternoon.
The sign was clear that it was intended as a “NOTICE TO ALL LAW ENFORCEMENT & IMMIGRATION AGENTS.” “This is a private business,” it said.
“You are not permitted to enter non-public areas of this business (including offices, break rooms, storage areas, and staff-only areas) without a valid JUDICIAL WARRANT signed by a judge or magistrate.”

"Dilbert" creator Scott Adams died Tuesday at the age of 68 after a battle with prostate cancer.
Reports broke Monday that Adams had entered hospice care and was declining at a rapid pace. As of press time, his X account was broadcasting a live video of his friends mourning his death.
Adams was most well-known for his cartoon comic strip "Dilbert", but later became a successful podcaster, hosting "Coffee with Scott Adams." He was a vocal supporter of President Donald Trump.
Prior to his death, Adams embraced Christianity.
The Trump administration has canceled the Biden administration’s rules forcing banks to ignore immigration status for loan applications.
On Monday, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and the Justice Department eliminated the Biden guidelines that ordered lenders not to consider immigration status when evaluating loan and credit applications, a rule that had major implications for mortgages, credit cards, and auto loans, Bloomberg reported.
The Biden administration maintained that considering immigration status would violate anti-racism laws that ensure equal and fair lending practices.
The Biden era rules were intended to help anchor illegal and temporary visa workers into Americans’ communities, for example, by providing funds for homes, autos, and apartment leases.
Whoopsie. Look what Tampon Tim signed into law back in 2020. As the circus over the George Floyd protests raged on, Minnesota’s Legislature updated its “use-of-force” statute, and Gov. Walz signed it into law that July.

MN law §609.066: Officers can use deadly force if a driver accelerates toward them, creating immediate life-threatening danger. No need to wait for impact—they can act based on apparent intent & proximity.

And it’s all based on the totality of circumstances known at the moment, not some hindsight debate after the fact.
The average national price for a gallon of gas dropped to $2.796, the lowest we’ve seen since 2021, per AAA.For obvious reasons, the White House is eager to spread this good news.
“In 43 states, the average gas price is below $3/gal. In 30 states, it’s below $2.75/gal,” wrote the White House’s official Rapid Response X account. “In 17 states, it’s at or below $2.50/gal.”The cost of gas is the tip of the wedge to achieve that new word everyone’s using these days: affordability.Those gas station signs we all pass displaying that day’s cost per gallon acts as a national barometer about how we feel about the economy.

Epstein Probe, Comer To Pursue Contempt Charges 17 replies
Former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said in a statement posted on X that they do not plan to appear for their scheduled depositions this week. "Every person has to decide when they have seen or had enough and are ready to fight for this country, its principles and it's principles, no matter the consequences, the Clintons wrote in a 8-page letter. "For us, now is that time." (snip) [Congressman James] Comer said Tuesday morning, "We will move next week in the House Oversight Committee . . . to hold Bill Clinton in contempt of Congress."
President Donald Trump said last week that he was “immediately taking steps to ban large institutional investors from buying more single-family homes” and “will be calling on Congress to codify” the proposal. His advisers need to show him why that’s a bad idea.
Trump promised to “discuss this topic, including further housing and affordability proposals, and more, at my speech in Davos in two weeks.” So there is time to present clear arguments that should convince him to quietly drop the plan.
If we had an audience with the president, we’d first remind him that the government in a free country has no authority to determine who
Social media has become a driver of information, among many other things, but it’s also provided the single greatest argument toward ending women’s suffrage. I’m sorry, but white, crusty, liberal women have killed the case for the 19th Amendment. Should there be a complete and total shutdown of women’s voting rights until we can figure out what’s going on? Maybe. Look, we know what’s going on, to be honest. We killed their hopes of a Hillary Clinton presidency and obliterated Kamala Harris’ shoddy, inept, and overall shambolic 2024 campaign.
With all the whining, ranting, and calls for violence, have you noticed one common theme regarding
Oregon election officials are set to begin removing hundreds of thousands of inactive voters from the state's registration rolls (snip) after years of inaction, mounting public pressure, and lawsuits against the state in recent months. Oregon's Democratic Secretary of State Tobias Read (snip) outlined two new directives (snip) to address the roughly 800,000 voter records that are being maintained by state officials. (snip) [O]regon paused removals in 2017. (snip) "[I]'s astounding that they haven't been removing anybody from the voter force in almost a decade because this is very basic 101 level election administration," said Jason Snead, executive director of the Honest Elections Project.
House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer dropped a bombshell this week, suggesting that far-left Rep. Ilhan Omar sits “at the top of the suspect list” in the sprawling Minnesota fraud scandals involving taxpayer-funded daycare and healthcare programs.
The comments came during a pointed exchange with journalist Alison Steinberg, who raised serious concerns about whether members of Congress themselves may have benefited from money funneled through political action committees tied to fraudulent daycare and healthcare schemes.
Ibrahima Diop, the finance boss at Minneapolis Public Schools (MPS), has been placed on administrative leave, Alpha News has learned. Alpha News has reported extensively on Diop and questionable contracts with Frontier Transportation Services, hired by MPS to transport Homeless and Highly Mobile (HHM) students in passenger vans. Additionally, another transportation company under contract with the district was filmed dropping children off at the now-closed Quality "Learing" [sic.] Center -- a moment many believe was staged to make the site appear active. MEISA Transportation Services were recorded outside of the Minneapolis daycare made famous in a Nick Shirley video for misspelling the word "learning."
Why Are So Many Leftists Such Trash?

Have you ever “taken to the streets” over any issue? Marched in a protest? Chanted whatever some weirdo ordered you to repeat? Maybe, but probably not. The only protests or marches I’ve ever attended were one against war a friend wanted to go to and he didn’t want to drive to DC alone (plus, I’d never been to DC at that point), one I got extra credit for in college involving newspaper strike, and one that was an annual even to “protest” pot laws because we went to meet chicks and get stoned in a crowd – mostly the novelty of it (which is now common).
