EXCERPT:

Michigan Democrats’ newly anointed Senate candidate blamed gun rights and “right-wing media” for a 2023 mass shooting at a Nashville Christian school at the hands of a mentally disturbed woman pretending to be a man.

In a now-deleted podcast in April 2023, Abdul El-Sayed claimed that the school shooting wasn’t a “trans problem” but “a gun problem.”

“After this shooting in Tennessee, right-wing media wanted to talk about the identity of the shooter who happened to identify as trans,” El-Sayed said during his opening monologue on the podcast, according to a story first reported by the Post Millennial.

The far-left Senate candidate was referring to Audrey Hale, the 28-year-old trans-identifying psychopath who stormed into the Covenant School, a Christian elementary, on March 27, 2023 and fatally shot six people, including three third-graders. She was shot and killed by a responding police officer before she could take more innocent lives.

Hale left behind a “manifesto” — multiple journals, in fact— filled with extreme leftist ideology, deranged entries laboring on her apparent white guilt and an urge to “kill all the white kids,” as well as plans laying out her deadly errand.

Investigative journalist James O’Keefe has released undercover footage exposing how Minnesota’s controversial voter “vouching” system allows registered voters to verify the identity and residency of up to eight other unregistered people who lack standard identification.

The investigation was carried out during Tuesday’s Minnesota primary election, with O’Keefe disguising himself as a Muslim man while investigative journalist Cam Higby wore a burqa and posed as a Muslim woman.

The pair visited multiple polling locations across Minneapolis to test how election workers would respond when presented with a scenario involving several unregistered individuals attempting to vote without ID.

EXCERPT:

It’s safe to say that most Americans love dogs. The relationship between those lovable mutts and their people is like nothing else; there is no other domesticated animal that associates with us not by our choice, but theirs, the way dogs do. They are faithful companions, loyal helpers and guardians, and they love us without reservation. Whenever anyone proclaims “you can’t buy love,” it’s a safe bet they’ve never had a puppy.

In some cultures, though, our traditional love for Canis lupus familiaris isn’t shared. Which brings us to the current Democrat candidate for a Michigan Senate seat, Abdul El-Sayed, and his tenure as Detroit’s health director. During this stint, El-Sayed was responsible for, among other things, Detroit’s animal control department, and his handling of that department prompted an employee to describe it as a “dog slaughterhouse.”

El-Sayed’s campaign, of course, is touting a significant improvement in the shelter’s live-release rate.

Detroit Animal Care and Control’s (DACC) live-release rate was roughly 20% to 26% when El-Sayed inherited the operation in late 2015 but climbed to about 61% to 62% by late 2016 — an improvement his campaign points to in arguing that the raw number of animals euthanized during his tenure obscures a turnaround from the dire conditions and euthanasia rates he inherited. The Daily Mail reported that records covering the period surrounding El-Sayed’s tenure showed 4,680 dogs and cats were euthanized, with 1,056 dogs and 29 cats getting euthanized in the first full calendar year DACC was under El-Sayed’s Health Department.

West fled to Texas for legal protection and specialized care, giving birth to the boy, whom she named Gabriel, on Wednesday at a Dallas hospital.

EXCERPT:

A Brazilian bishop has attacked consecration to St. Michael the Archangel while suggesting that the devil is “rather imaginary.”

“Are there theological justifications for Consecration to Saint Michael? Consecration is to God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit,” wrote Bishop Vicente Ferreira on X last week. “Isn’t the devil we fight against rather imaginary?” he added.

“The greater exorcism should be: of homophobia, of femicide, of racism, of crimes against indigenous peoples. Of that legion of evils,” he concluded, in a statement originally written in Portuguese.

The tweet appears to be aimed at another Brazilian bishop. On the same day as Ferreira’s statement, the archbishop of Montes Claros, José Carlos Campos, consecrated his archdiocese to St Michael.

Ferreira was slammed for his denigration of devotion to St. Michael, who is invoked for spiritual defense against the devil by Catholics because he was given power by God to cast the devil and his followers from Heaven.

“What is your religion? You should convert to Catholicism,” wrote one X user. “At your age, worrying about these woke idiocies isn’t going to get you to heaven. You should be concerned with saving your soul.”

As the WNBA tries to fathom what the “W” in their own name stands for, its own past statements on social media are revealing the entity’s biases against their own athletes.

The league was dropped into the middle of the debate over whether men should take away athletic opportunities for women when Indiana Fever star Sophie Cunningham said it was unfair for males to compete against females. A counter-attack erupted within the league as coaches and players fired back by spewing the liberal orthodoxy that mediocre transgender athletes need a place to win awards.

The WNBA’s 2026 collective bargaining agreement says, “only players who are women are eligible to play in the WNBA.”

But there is no definition of women in the policy, and the issue of men playing in the WNBA by saying they identify as female is not discussed.

The WNBA was not allowed to simply let the issue fade after two former male NBA players said they want to be selected in the 2027 draft given the lack of any barriers in the league’s rules.

Buffeted by the winds of controversy, the league sought refuge in the traditional remedies of meetings, task forces, and PR statements.

Those nations include China, Mexico, Panama, Colombia, Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Peru, Costa Rica, and the Dominican Republic.

The report, titled “The Great Transshipment Scam,” says the practice allows exporters to route goods through intermediary countries before they enter the United States under a different declared country of origin.

FOX News reports:

Accused Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson asks judge to take potential death penalty off table

Lawyers for accused Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson are arguing that prosecutors haven’t established a case for the potential death penalty in a new court filing made public Tuesday night.

“The facts and the law require this Court to strike the sole aggravating factor,” defense attorneys Kathy Nester, Michael Burt, Richard Novak and Staci Visser wrote in a 41-page brief.

After a weeklong preliminary hearing in early July, Judge Tony Graf Jr. gave both sides in the case time to file briefs before he makes a decision on whether there is enough probable cause to send the case to trial — which he is expected to announce on Sept. 1.

Robinson, 23, is accused of shooting the 31-year-old Kirk at Utah Valley University on Sept. 10, 2025, during a Turning Point USA event. Kirk had founded the group to promote conservatism on campuses around the country and was speaking in front of a crowd of more than 2,000 in the courtyard when he was struck and killed by a single bullet.

Robinson’s defense argued in Tuesday’s filing that prosecutors didn’t establish probable cause concerning the aggravating factor — that the shooting created a high probability of death to someone other than Kirk and that Robinson knew of that “high probability.”

Without the aggravator, the potential death penalty would be taken off the table.

“The State had over ten months to investigate the shooting death of Charlie Kirk and to develop legally sufficient evidence that Mr. Robinson ‘knowingly created a great risk of death to another other than Charlie Kirk and the defendant,’ the sole aggravator alleged in the Information which in theory exposes Mr. Robinson to the potential punishment of death,” Robinson’s attorneys wrote. “The State’s presentation of its evidence as to this alleged circumstance in aggravation at the preliminary hearing in July 2026 wholly fails to carry its burden of proof.”

EXCERPT:

A Colorado school board is proving once again that the left truly relishes in talking to young children about sex.

In a letter from the Alliance Defending Freedom to the Roaring Fork Schools Board of Education, Director Katherine L. Anderson of the Center for Parental Rights noted some truly disturbing and graphic imagery that children are seeing as part of the 3Rs curriculum, a comprehensive program to teach about sexuality.

The Rs in question refer to “Rights, Respect, Responsibility” according to the website of its creator, Advocates for Youth. The curriculum “seeks to address both the functional knowledge related to sexuality and the specific skills necessary to adopt healthy behaviors. Rights, Respect, Responsibility reflects the tenets of social learning theory, social cognitive theory and the social ecological model of prevention.”

Anderson specified what this looks like in practice. “In kindergarten, children learn to identify ‘at least three body parts of the female, namely the nipples, vulva and anus,’ along with identifying the “nipples, penis and anus” for the male anatomy. But this explicit language — foisted on young children without parental consent — is not all. The accompanying pictures are worth a thousand words.

That same kindergarten lesson includes a PowerPoint presentation called ‘Understanding Our Bodies.’”

WASHINGTON, D.C. (LifeSiteNews) – The U.S. Department of Health & Human Services (HHS) released a report Thursday identifying millions of dollars in insurance claims that billed for underage gender “transition” procedures under false pretenses.

The 64-page report, Wolves in White Coats: How Doctors and Hospitals Pushed and Profited from the Fraud of “Gender Medicine,” examined more than 225 hospitals and health systems nationwide that offer pediatric gender programs by reviewing scientific literature, hospital records, whistleblower accounts, insurance claims, and interviews with patients and their parents.

It found “approximately $50 million in insurance claims for puberty blockers billed using endocrine disorder diagnostic code E34.9 (Endocrine Disorder, Unspecified). It further reported that nearly $11 million in claims for patients ages 13-17 were billed using a diagnosis code for precocious puberty E301 — findings the report said warrant additional review of insurance coding practices,” according to an HHS press release. The report called for greater oversight and review of insurance billing and coding practices as well as further evaluation of “gender medicine” policies.

In Cali, the country’s third-largest city, crews have turned their attention from a search-and-rescue effort to debris removal at most sites, a sign the disaster response was entering a grimmer phase after the crucial first 72 hours.

At least 265 people were killed by the quake and around 500 others are still missing, authorities said on Wednesday afternoon.

(LifeSiteNews) — The Israeli military designated Taybeh — the only village left in the West Bank entirely inhabited by Christians — as a “closed military zone” on Sunday. The decision came against a backdrop of escalating and ongoing Jewish terrorist attacks by Israeli “settlers” on these communities.

The Israeli Defense Force (IDF) claimed the measure was introduced in response to “some violent attacks by Israelis in the region.” As a result, Israelis and all other non-residents are prohibited from entering the village.

Although the closure is presented as a protective step, Taybeh mayor Suleiman Khouria observed that it places additional restrictions on the residents themselves and does little to shield them from Jewish “settlers” whose colonies (“settlements” and “outposts”) on stolen Palestinian land are all deemed illegal under international law.

The mayor described the closure as “an attempt to further tighten the noose on villagers rather than a measure to protect them.”

“Police investigating after a Black woman was found hanging from a tree in Mississippi,” an X post from The Lead on CNN read, accompanied by a reporter hit that aired Wednesday from Omar Jimenez on the death of 29-year-old Tasia Fortune.

Fortune was found hanging from a tree behind an abandoned house earlier this month. Her death is undoubtedly tragic, and the circumstances are being investigated. But CNN appeared to be more interested in trying to insinuate her death is emblematic of racism in America by invoking the imagery of a racist lynching and by breezing past additional reported details surrounding Fortune’s death.

Jimenez stressed that little is known about the circumstances and that police have not said whether her death is considered suspicious, nor have they identified a suspect. But police have also similarly not suggested it was racially motivated either — so naturally, CNN decided to make the crime about race (or at least try).

“The raw imagery of a black person hanging from the tree in the American South evokes a very painful history,” Jimenez said.
