The Washington Post Might Be Dying In Darkness After This Announcement– townhall.com

The Washington Post announced on Wednesday that it is laying off hundreds of its employees, which marks one of the newspaper’s deepest workforce cuts in its history.

This development is part of a broader trend as legacy media outlets are rapidly losing viewers and readers.

From CNN:

Executive Editor Matt Murray and human resources chief Wayne Connell sent an email to staffers Wednesday morning instructing employees to “stay home today” but attend an 8:30 a.m. ET meeting via Zoom during which the Washington Post’s leadership will announce “significant actions across the company.”

Those actions include shutting down almost the entire Sports section, closing the Books section and cancelling the daily Post Reports podcast, sources at the newspaper said.

One of the most severe cuts comes in the form of a “restructuring” of the Post’s Metro desk, which covers D.C., Maryland and Virginia.

Socialists Hate ‘Excellence,’ So Mamdani Is Ending the ‘Gifted and Talented’ Program For Kindergarten – PJ Media– pjmedia.com

Blurb:

I’m having a hard time wrapping my head around the opposition to programs that recognize bright, eager-to-learn kids and place them in special classes where they can excel and achieve great things.

Yes, the opposition is based on the fact that more white and Asian kids qualify for the special instruction than black kids, but instead of penalizing the “special” kids, why not work harder to uplift the black kids? It appears to me that no one in school districts that cite “white privilege” for why fewer black kids end up in these accelerated classes ever comes up with ideas to raise black kids up instead of holding other kids back.

Probably too much work.

New York’s Democratic Socialist Party Mayor Zohran Mamdani thinks that these special programs that elevate some kids over others based on talent and gifts are an abomination and need to end. Catering to the lowest common denominator in education, the workplace, and government is how socialists keep everything nice and equal — equally mediocre, at least.

New York AG fires lesbian Democrat for speaking out against gender ideology– www.lifesitenews.com

Blurb:

(The Washington Stand) — In progressive America, the Democratic Party’s litmus test for public service is transgender ideology. And not just casual support, nor a general affirmation of “LGBTQ+ rights.” Those who wish to participate in the system must embrace every last jot and tittle of the transgender agenda, specifically.

For those who prefer to side with the truth, even members of other favored minority groups had better look out, lest the door hit them on the way out.

The latest casualty to this ideological intolerance is Glenna Goldis, a lawyer in the New York attorney general’s office, who was fired in late January for telling the truth about the lack of evidence for carrying out gender transition procedures on minors.

Canadian Government Euthanizes Disabled Man Because He’s ‘Lonely’– slaynews.com

The Canadian government-run euthanasia system has crossed another chilling threshold after Canada’s socialized healthcare system euthanized a disabled man because he was experiencing “loneliness.”

A disabled man in his 60s was put to death under Canada’s expanding Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD) regime after citing loneliness and social isolation as the primary reasons for wanting to die.

The alarming case was revealed in a 2025 report from Ontario’s MAiD Death Review Committee (OMDRC).

The man, identified only as Mr. B, lived with cerebral palsy and used a wheelchair.

Car ownership used to come with an unspoken assumption: You bought the vehicle, and it was yours to maintain, repair, and service in any way you saw fit. That assumption is quietly eroding. And one of the clearest signs doesn’t involve software updates or subscription features.

It involves a screw.

Tasks once considered routine — such as clearing fault codes or accessing safety systems — now often require dealer-level credentials or paid subscriptions.

America, glimpse your future. If we continue down the path of islamization as the UK and Europe, this is the inevitability. Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib, Zohran Mamdani … this is next. Nothing is static, everything is fluid. It’s advances and this direction leads only one way – to hell.

In Birmingham, a convicted terrorist with a documented history of jihadist violence, criminality, and incendiary Islamist rhetoric is now standing for local office, presenting himself as a “unifier.” Shahid Butt, jailed for his role in an armed terror plot and openly advocating violence, religious segregation, and confrontation with “disbelievers,” is being normalized as a legitimate political actor. This is what a fading civilization looks like: one afraid to name its enemies, willing to rebrand extremism as activism, and mistaking intimidation for representation. Nothing is static; everything moves. And when societies refuse to draw lines, the direction of travel is unmistakable—and downward.

Protests over two immigration enforcement-involved shootings have highlighted the agitators organizing against federal agents on the ground in Minnesota, and the organization Comunidades Organizando el Poder y la Accíon Latina, or COPAL Education Fund, is a major player.

COPAL describes itself as a group that works “to improve the quality of life of Latine families.” It also hosts a hotline for people to call when spotting Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents at work. The group also set up the Immigrant Defense Network, which trains “legal observers” to watch and report ICE.

The Department of Justice made about 3 million pages worth of documents relating to sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein available on Friday.

Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said that the latest tranche of documents was winnowed from about 6 million due to personally identifying information of victims, medical files, child pornography images, and any images showing death or abuse, according to ABC News.

The documents released under the Epstein Files Transparency Act include 2,000 videos and 180,000 images.

“We comply with the act, and there is no ‘protect President Trump.’ We didn’t protect or not protect anybody,” Blanche said.

The U.S. Department of Education found the California Department of Education (CDE) in violation of federal family rights law on Wednesday for facilitating the gender “transition” of children and hiding it from their parents.

California pressured school districts across the state to violate the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), a student privacy and parental rights law, by forcing them to conceal student records from parents about their child’s so-called “gender transition,” according to a senior department official detailing the results of an investigation Wednesday.

This was entirely predictable. New York City’s voters elected a Hamas supporting Communist as mayor. This is the result. Now that they have an ally in Gracie Mansion, New York City’s pro-Hamas citizens will most certainly escalate their attacks against New York City’s Jewish community. President Trump and AG Bondi will very likely have to intervene and provide protection for New York City’s Jewish citizens. Shame on every Jewish New Yorker who voted for Mamdani.

UK Government To Go After Dogs In Fight To Up Diversity: “A Lot Muslims Don’t Have Dogs As Pets” – louderwithcrowder.com

While you may have already known that the government in the UK gives special treatment to one ethnicity over the other, what you may have never expected is that, to appease the altar of diversity, your dogs are no longer safe.

According to the Encyclopedia of Religion and Nature, Islam sees “dogs as impure animals, or, at least, that their saliva is a contaminant that voids a Muslim’s ritual purity.” But it’s not just that they don’t like dogs; they are also racist towards dogs. According to “Muhammad, the Prophet of Islam, black dogs are evil, or even devils, in animal form.”

So, not only are your dogs not safe anymore in the UK, but they may or may not go after the Black dogs first. Incredible, yet deeply racist towards our canine population.

Chile’s National Institute of Statistics (INE) on Wednesday published data that showed the country’s fertility rate has fallen to the lowest level in its recorded history: just 0.97 children per woman.

The INE noted that births began to decline in Chile beginning in 2010. Last year, the fertility rate was 1.06 children and, if the trend continues, it will sink to 0.89 in 2028.

INE head of demography Miguel Ojeda predicted “the number of deaths will exceed the number of births” in 2028, “beginning a period of negative population growth.”

Will the ubiquity of chatbots lead to a generation of doctors who don’t know their stuff? That’s the danger, according to a new editorial in BMJ Evidence-Based Medicine.

The authors, led by Jacob Hough at the University of Missouri, outline the many ways that AI use can undermine medical education, like automation bias, de-skilling, and providing false information.

“These tools can fabricate sources, encode bias, lead to over-reliance and have negatively disruptive effects on the educational journey. Medical programmes must be vigilant about these risks and adjust their curricula and training programmes to stay ahead of them and mitigate their likelihood,” they write.

The Department of Health and Human Services, through its Office for Civil Rights (OCR), has issued a clear notice that pro-lifers will welcome: pharmacies nationwide are no longer required to supply the abortion drug.

Under the Biden administration, policies in favor of abortion dramatically increased. In the wake of the Supreme Court’s 2022 Dobbs decision — which returned abortion regulation to the states and the people — the former administration issued guidance pressuring nearly 60,000 retail pharmacies to stock and dispense mifepristone and misoprostol for patients with Medicare, Medicaid, or other federally funded coverage. This move drew significant criticism and legal challenges from the onset, as many argued it overrode conscience rights and state laws.

OTTAWA (LifeSiteNews) – One of Canada’s most senior federal ministers seemed to suggest that the government needs more, and possibly new powers, to ensure it can deal in the future with “hostile actors” more swiftly than it did during the Freedom Convoy clearout in 2022. 

The comments were made by Minister of Industry Mélanie Joly during a recent House of Commons industry committee meeting after she was grilled by Conservative MPs about concerns over a new bill relating to the internet. 

Joly claimed that the federal cabinet under Prime Minister Mark Carney needs the new powers to deal with “a chaotic and dangerous world.”

“I think it’s important for people to remember that, since we’re living in a much more chaotic and dangerous world, the government has to deal with a lot of hostile actors that can sometimes go after our critical infrastructure including the state ones,” she told the committee.

Joly was giving her testimony regarding Bill C-8, known as An Act Respecting Cyber Security.

“Melania,” the documentary centered on first lady Melania Trump, delivered a box-office surprise with a $7 million opening weekend, according to estimates released Sunday, Feb. 1, by Amazon MGM Studios.

Directed by Brett Ratner, the film had been expected to open between $3 million and $5 million. It chronicles the 20 days leading up to President Donald Trump’s second inauguration in 2025, told from his wife’s perspective. Final box-office figures will be released Feb. 2.

Anything above $1 million is “a huge number,” said Jeff Bock, senior media analyst for Exhibitor Relations, in an interview with USA TODAY ahead of the release. “That would mean that a lot of folks who don’t normally go to the movies went to this.”

(LifeSiteNews) — In what is being hailed as a first of its kind courtroom victory against the “gender transition” industry, a jury has awarded $2 million to a young woman, who, as a teen, was disfigured by so-called “gender-affirming doctors.”

The now-22-year-old, Fox Varian, who no longer identifies as transgender, underwent a double mastectomy when she was just a 16-year-old.

Varian had testified during the trial that she had quickly regretted having her body mutilated.

“I immediately had a thought that this was wrong, and it couldn’t be true,” said the young woman. “It’s hard to face that you are disfigured for life.”

Humorless Democrats in the Trump Derangement Syndrome era can’t take a joke. Literally. Liberals in Blue state Hawaii are so joyless that they’ve criminalized satire, a mainstay of politics for centuries.

But a federal judge in Honolulu just told the leftist-led Aloha State to lighten up.

‘Kill the Joke’

In a big win for the First Amendment, Judge Shanlyn A.S. Park on Friday found Hawaii’s looming law censoring online political speech unconstitutional. The case pitted the Babylon Bee — “Fake News You Can Trust” — against Hawaii Attorney General Anne Lopez and the other speech silencers at the island state’s capitol, and Park’s permanent injunction stops a law that “would kill the joke.”

As the Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) put it, Hawaii government officials aren’t allowed to censor political speech they don’t like. The conservative Christian network of attorneys founded to protect “religious freedom, free speech, parental rights and the sanctity of life” filed the lawsuit on behalf of the Babylon Bee and Hawaii resident Dawn O’Brien.

Senate Majority Leader John Thune has indicated plans to bring the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act to the Senate floor for a vote, potentially using a procedural maneuver to avoid the traditional 60-vote threshold required to overcome a filibuster.

The announcement comes after a number of House Republicans, including Reps. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL) and Tim Burchett (R-TN), indicated that they would move to block any legislation from being sent to the Senate until a floor vote on the SAVE Act was secured. Lawmakers had attempted to attach an amendment for the SAVE Act onto ongoing government funding bills, which is expected to end the ongoing government shutdown by funding all government departments with the exception of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).

It appears that there may be a growing divide within the GOP, and it’s got nothing to do with redacting files associated with a convicted sex offender.

Instead, surprisingly, it’s got everything to do with requiring Americans to provide key identification before voting.

The Safeguarding American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act, per Fox News, aims to enact two key provisions.

First, it would require states to obtain proof of citizenship in-person when people register to vote.
