A Virginia high school graduation descended into chaos when a spectator rushed the stage and attacked a student who was walking to receive his diploma. Evan J. Williams Jr., 20, was arrested Thursday and charged with disorderly conduct and damage to private property in connection with the brawl that broke out during John Marshall High School’s graduation ceremony at Virginia Commonwealth University, according to police. A 12-second viral video of the violence posted on Facebook shows the moment several attendees began to fight on the students’ special day in front of shocked family members just before 11 a.m. Wednesday at the school’s Siegel Center.

I wasn't going to post another dog-bites-man story but I saw the school has a 100% graduation rate. Must have been exceptional 'students'. Nobody wants those 'students' recycled through again.

Back in the day, the Walt Disney show demonstrated a chain reaction by showing a floor covered in mouse traps, each with a ping pong ball on it. Trip one and there you go. So yeah, today's story demonstrates a room filled with nuclear physicists and take comfort knowing our future is in good hands.

100% graduation rate? Was this because they really completed the work or because they were pushed through with inflated grades so the Board of Ed could boast a 100% graduation rate?

Despite a growing list of high-profile supporters, Pratt said in an interview on "Gutfeld!" on Thursday that celebrity endorsements are not a priority for his campaign. "I actually don't want celebrities to come out and endorse me," he said, adding the only endorsements he wants are from "the moms and the animal lovers in L.A."

America’s political and cultural divisions are increasingly finding their way into the nation’s courtrooms. From bitter jury-room disputes to unusually public clashes among Supreme Court justices, the judiciary – long considered the most restrained and deliberate of America’s institutions – is beginning to reflect the same polarization reshaping much of American public life. Courts were once the federal branch of government least likely to generate headlines for hot tempers or personal attacks. Increasingly, they are starting to look like everything else. A Warning Sign From the Jury Box A recent Wall Street Journal report by Corinne Ramey offers a striking introduction to the problem.

A bill that would ban ingredients used in many of New Jersey’s pizzas, along with other food additives, is making its way through the Legislature and drawing pushback from the food industry. The measure, S3785, would prohibit the use of certain ingredients based on their classification as potential carcinogens. Among them is potassium bromate, a dough-strengthening agent used in some commercial bread and pizza doughs, though not all pizzerias rely on it. The bill also takes aim at a range of additives and food dyes, and includes restrictions on what can be served in school lunches in an effort to improve children’s health.

More than 400 teenagers laid siege on a lakeside park in upstate New York during back-to-back broad daylight “teen takeovers” — prompting security increases ahead of Memorial Day Weekend. Horrified parents and young children fled the Ontario Beach Park in Rochester on Sunday as a mob teeming with hundreds of unruly youths flooded the parking lot, WHAM reported. The brawlers milled around the parking lot and appeared to throw punches at random as several full-on fights broke out. Several teens were thrown onto the concrete and jumped on. Others were slammed against parked vehicles as the aggressors continued to wail on them, according to video footage obtained by WHEC.

A lesbian minister in Nantucket, Massachusetts, is canceling her church’s annual Fourth of July celebrations in an act of political protest apparently against the country’s — as well as her own congregation’s — “whiteness.” Rev. Erin Splaine announced to her community Thursday that the Second Congregational Meeting House Society, Unitarian Universalist church would be canceling its customary July 4th celebrations, which include a public reading of the Declaration of Independence and the Bill of Rights. "We came to this decision in large measure because of the recent gutting of the 1965 Voting Rights Act by the Supreme Court,” Splaine wrote in a letter to the Nantucket Current. She was referring to

Democrats are shaking their heads in disbelief at the timing of Jill Biden’s memoir and her change in tone about Joe Biden’s disastrous debate performance. The party would rather talk about the high cost of living and increased gas prices under President Trump, Democrats told The Post, rather than relive the debate around Joe Biden’s cognitive health. “We need this as much as we need a hole in the head,” Jim Manley, a Democratic strategist who worked in the Senate for years, said. Jill Biden’s confessional about her concerns over the former president’s health is dropping as the party fights to win control of Congress in November.

Texas state Rep. James Talarico, the Democrat running against Republican state Attorney General Ken Paxton in the U.S. Senate race, has referred to women as “neighbors with a uterus” on more than one occasion. The Democrat used the expression while lamenting Roe v. Wade being overturned, which brought the issue of abortion back to the state level. “Every one of our neighbors with a uterus became property of the state,” he claimed. In another clip, the Democrat talks about how “neighbors with a uterus” should be able to “control their own body” – leftist code for murdering their unborn child without repercussions.

President Trump declared Friday that he has “no interest in continuing” to oversee operations and renovations at the Kennedy Center – and will move to transfer those responsibilities to Congress – after a federal judge ordered his name to be removed from the performing arts venue. ⁠District Judge Christopher Cooper ruled that within 14 days all physical signage bearing Trump’s name must be removed from the building and all references to a “Trump Kennedy Center” must be eliminated from official materials, in response to a lawsuit by Rep. Joyce Beatty (D-Ohio), who is an ex-officio member of the institution’s board.

CBS News Editor-in-Chief continues draining the woke swamp at the long-compromised Sunday news program, 60 Minutes. The Gateway Pundit has documented for years how ’60 Minutes’ repeatedly targeted conservatives and President Trump with one-sided hit pieces while giving Democrats and their allies soft-glove treatment. The show’s credibility collapsed further after the disastrous Kamala Harris interview that triggered a major lawsuit and exposed its activist bent. Bari Weiss, who famously walked away from The New York Times over its radical leftward lurch and cancel culture, is now applying the same standards at CBS.

U.S. District Judge Christopher R. Cooper, who is married to Joe Biden’s personal attorney Amy Jeffress, ruled that President Trump can’t legally add his name to the Kennedy Center, effectively blocking the performing arts venue’s updated moniker — the Trump Kennedy Center, court documents show. Cooper also blocked the administration’s plans for a two-year closure so the center can undergo significant renovations. According to Judge Cooper, Trump’s name cannot be added as the law that established the center “makes crystal
