Texas A&M University Takes Aim At New
Muslim College
Posted By: ConservativeYankee, 5/12/2026 9:46:12 AM
Texas A&M University System sent a cease-and-desist letter Friday to a new Muslim university operating in Dallas, Texas. Texas American Muslim University at Dallas, also known as TexAM University, is facing multiple cease-and-desist orders. Texas A&M University accused the group of trademark infringement through its use of “TexAM” and similar branding. Chancellor Glenn Hegar said the system has a duty to protect its name and trademarks, which represent more than 150 years of academic work and public trust. One day earlier, May 7, the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board (THECB) issued its own cease-and-desist order at the direction of Republican Texas Gov. Greg Abbott.

Student visas are designed to expand educational opportunities. What’s better than studying abroad or hosting international students in the U.S. to deepen cultural ties and expand our horizons? Turns out, however, that just like we’ve seen in the massive Minnesota and California social‑service program fraud epidemic, the rampant COVID relief scams, and so much more, bad actors love to take advantage of government programs, and according to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), that’s exactly what went down with a visa program called Optional Practical Training. The idea is to give foreign students with F-1 visas
WASHINGTON — Former Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas lamented the delay in immigration enforcement actions until the final year of President Biden’s term — despite having testified to Congress several times while in office that the US border was “secure.”
In an appearance Tuesday at Politico’s Security Summit, Mayorkas discussed aspects of the “broken” immigration system in America, acknowledging that a “low bar” for those expressing “credible fear of persecution” allowed too many migrants into the country during the Biden administration.
More than 8 million entered by the start of the 46th president’s final year in office — before Biden moved to shut down the border and crack down on illegal crossings
Virginia Attorney General Jay Jones (D) appears to have gotten his law license from Minnesota’s Quality Learing Center. After misspelling “Virginia” and “Senator” on a recent appeal to the Virginia Supreme Court, Jones’ office fired off an appeal to the Supreme Court of the United States that’s addressed to — lol — the Supreme Court of Virginia.
In the first case… no spell check? The attorney general’s office doesn’t use spell check? In the second case of addressing the petition to the wrong court, I’m speechless at this level of incompetence, especially AFTER all those misspellings and when this case is 1) the most important thing on the planet to Democrats

As U.S. ambassador to Ukraine, House candidate Bridget Brink was an energetic stock trader, making 179 individual stock trades worth between $754,000 and $4 million while in office, according to more than two dozen ethics disclosures filed with the State Department and reviewed by the Washington Free Beacon.
Now, as the leading candidate in the Democratic primary for a Republican-held congressional seat in a Michigan swing district, Brink says she will fight to ban federal officials, including presidential appointees like U.S. ambassadors, from engaging in individual stock trading as part of her plan for "fighting corruption and defending democracy." "I've been criticized as 'focusing too intensely on the issue of corruption,'"
Staffers of the Federal Reserve bank system are providing financial backing for the Democratic Party’s lurch toward the far left, a Washington Free Beacon analysis found.
Political donations from the Fed staff have a sharp partisan tilt toward Democrats. In the 2024 campaign cycle, 90.3 percent of contributions from Fed employees went to Democrats, according to Open Secrets. The site doesn’t yet have a tally of the political distribution of donations this campaign cycle, but the Fed staff are jumping in, pouring money into contested Democratic primary races and supporting candidates with extreme views that are hostile to free-market economics or to America’s traditional allies.

Hunter Biden prostitution crimes kept
from them by Biden DOJ 7 replies
Two Senate committees have obtained records from the Justice Department that show the government possessed evidence of potential prostitution-related crimes related to former first son Hunter Biden.
Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley and Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations Chairman Ron Johnson had requested the records from the Justice Department in 2022, pursuant to their investigation into alleged corrupt acts and conflicts of interest by members of the Biden family. Those requests were not answered at the time.
The Republican senators say the records – which include text messages between Hunter Biden and the women – show that the government had significant evidence of potential Mann Act violations allegedly committed
The White House shared that President Donald Trump was nominating Pennsylvania state Senator and former Republican gubernatorial candidate Doug Mastriano to serve as the U.S. Ambassador to Slovakia, and Kari Lake as U.S. Ambassador to Jamaica.
In a press release from the White House on Monday, it was revealed several nominations were being sent to the Senate. Among the nominations, included one for Mastriano “to be Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the United States of America to the Slovak Republic.”
Lake was also revealed to be nominated “to be Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the United States of America to Jamaica.”
The State Department cut LGBT seminars, blindfolded team-building exercises and career events for pet owners from agency onboarding as part of its new Foreign Service recruiting push.
Foreign Service orientation or “A-100” is a six-week orientation for new officers and specialists. The revised curriculum aims to remove undue ideological influence and what some State Department officials saw as “juvenile” exercises. One axed activity aimed to foster “leadership and followership,” and “perspective-taking” by throwing things into buckets blindfolded.
“The Trump administration knows that an elite diplomatic service is key to effectively pursuing America’s national interests,” State Department spokesperson Tommy Pigott told the Daily Caller News Foundation. “That’s why the State Department has undertaken
WASHINGTON — Dr. Anthony Fauci on Monday survived a five-year legal deadline to face criminal charges for allegedly lying to Congress about funding risky research in Wuhan, China — but he isn’t out of the woods, The Post has learned.
Fauci testified to a Senate committee on May 11, 2021, that he did not fund “gain of function” research that genetically altered coronaviruses in the same city where the COVID-19 pandemic started — as he tried to tamp down the now-dominant “lab leak” theory. Evidence shows he did.
The country’s former top infectious disease official still could face other potential charges for lesser-known contested testimony, or for alleged conduct stretching closer

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday urged citizens to resume coronavirus-era work from home (WFH) practices to save fuel and reduce reliance on imports during the Strait of Hormuz oil crisis.
“In this time of global crisis, we have to make a resolution, keeping duty paramount, and fulfill it with complete dedication. A big resolution is to use petrol and diesel sparingly. We must curb our use of petrol and diesel,” Modi said.
Modi also said India must “place great emphasis on saving foreign exchange” by cutting back on imports. To that end, he urged citizens to postpone foreign travel and refrain from buying gold

A Spanish court has sentenced two parents to prison for keeping their children locked away at their home for years in a case now known in the country as ‘The Oviedo Horror House’.
A couple, identified due to Spanish child protection standards only as a 53 year-old German man and a 48 year-old German-American dual national woman, have been sentenced to two years and ten months in prison each for child abuse. The case, which is said to have shocked the nation and residents of the northwest city of Oviedo, Asturias, saw three children — two nine year-old twins and an 11 year-old boy — locked away by their parents

Black Caucus could be wiped out by redistricting wars 30 replies
WASHINGTON — The Congressional Black Caucus, a power center in the Democratic Party for decades, saw its membership rise this Congress to an all-time high of 58 House members. Now, thanks to a Supreme Court redistricting ruling that’s expected to dramatically diminish Black representation on Capitol Hill, the CBC is fighting a five-alarm fire that could devastate its membership. CBC Chair Yvette Clarke, D-N.Y., said as many as 19 of the caucus’ members could be affected by the redistricting wars in a worst-case scenario, though she noted it’s still fluid given that states are still drawing new maps in the
Despite being newly empowered by the Callais v. Louisiana Supreme Court ruling, South Carolina’s Republican-controlled Senate rejected moving ahead with a redistricting plan that would have likely unseated the state’s sole Democrat in Congress, Rep. Jim Clyburn.
On Tuesday, the state Senate voted by a 29-17 margin to allow for the General Assembly to work on redistricting ahead of the 2026 elections. This was short of the necessary two-thirds threshold, with five Republican senators defecting.
Not long ago, New York Gov. Kathy Hochul told New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani to handle his own mess. Now she's writing him a $4 billion check to bail him out.
Mamdani had barely settled into Gracie Mansion before he discovered what socialists always find out: Eventually, you run out of other people's money. His grand campaign promises — you know: free this, universal that — ran headlong into the reality that New York City couldn’t afford all the things Mamdani had campaigned on.
So, Mamdani went looking to Albany for a bailout.
And, originally, Hochul said no.

Former Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass has unveiled a controversial new government initiative aimed at addressing issues in the city. The proposal would provide free dental care to methamphetamine users, funded by taxpayers.
During a recent event, Bass shared her latest thoughts on how to tackle the city’s challenges, raising eyebrows as she discussed her approach.
“How many people have you met who are homeless and don’t have any teeth?” she questioned. “Their teeth are gone because of meth. It’s hard to succeed without teeth. So, we need to offer comprehensive healthcare for these individuals.”

Several Frontier Airlines passengers suffered minor injuries over the weekend when their plane, departing from the Denver airport, struck a person trespassing on the runway. That person was killed after being hit by the plane's engine, which caused an explosion and fire that aborted the takeoff.
That man has now been identified, which is raising questions about whether this was a sinister act, given his extensive criminal history.
Authorities said Michael Mott, 41, was the man hit by the plane on May 9. Mott has been arrested 20 times previously, including for attempted murder. He was most recently arrested about a month before he trespassed at the Denver airport.

A Democratic Fantasy World

A new poll suggests that a sizable number of Democrats -- more than 40% in some cases -- believe the attempts on President Donald Trump's life were fake.
The poll, which surveyed 1,000 Americans over the age of 18, was conducted by NewsGuard and YouGov. It asked people to respond to three statements:
"The assassination attempt against Donald Trump at the White House Correspondents Dinner in April 2026 was staged."
"The assassination attempt against Donald Trump at a Trump presidential campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, in July 2024 was staged."
"The assassination attempt against Donald Trump at Trump International Golf Club in September 2024 was staged."
I have a couple of friends who are liberals -- not those liberals who have reached what I call “the incurable terminal stage.” Nor are they the psychotics who, the moment they are exposed to facts or viewpoints different from theirs become wild-eyed and hysterical. Even so, on certain topics their ability to reason seems to break down.
A couple of months back, the issue of illegal aliens came up. They voiced the usual talking points on the topic: the aliens are just trying to build a better life, they pay taxes, only a few commit crimes, etc. They did not state they are being kidnapped and put in concentration camps.
There are only two reasons why I even know who Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D-Md.) is.
The first is that ridiculous trip he made to El Salvador to have margaritas with MS-13 gang banger Kilmar Abrego Garcia.
The second is that every time he's a part of a Senate hearing with Secretary of State Marco Rubio, he says something stupid and Rubio completely owns him. (Snip) Well, on Tuesday, it was FBI Director Kash Patel's turn. During a Senate Appropriations Committee hearing, Van Hollen, who never has anything of substance to say, resorted to bringing up tabloid rumors from The Atlantic about Patel's "excessive drinking."
Tennessee House Speaker Cameron Sexton (R-Crossville) announced Tuesday that Democratic lawmakers will be removed from all current House standing committee and subcommittee assignments following disruptions to last week’s special legislative session on congressional redistricting.
The disciplinary action comes after the Tennessee General Assembly approved a new congressional redistricting plan expected to produce a 9-0 Republican congressional delegation. Governor Bill Lee has since signed the map into law.
During the three-day legislative session, chaos erupted inside the Tennessee Capitol as Democratic lawmakers and protesters staged loud demonstrations against the proposed redistricting maps.

Oppose Use Of Ground Troops In Iran: I&I/TIPP Poll 9 replies
President Donald Trump has worked hard to forge a deal to end the U.S.-Iran war and avoid a wider conflict. But, as the latest I&I/TIPP Poll shows, Americans remain sharply split over the U.S. military action, and strongly oppose sending ground troops into Iran.
The national online I&I/TIPP Poll, taken by 1,464 adults from April 28 to May 1, asked: “Do you support or oppose the United States military action against Iran?” The poll’s margin of error is +/-2.9 percentage points.
Among all those responding, 43% said they support the U.S.-Iran war either strongly (23%) or somewhat (20%),
