The highest court in Iowa has ruled against the use of race in higher education financial aid programs, joining a growing number of similar court rulings following the Supreme Court’s 2023 decision against the use of race in admissions.

The Iowa case arose from a gift made by Dr. Ezra Totton to the University of Iowa for black students who, like him, wish to pursue a career in chemistry.

Totton had been denied admission to the University of Tennessee in 1939 based on his skin color, and attended the University of Iowa instead. To comply with the Supreme Court’s Students for Fair Admissions ruling, in 2025 the University of Iowa attempted to change the gift’s “black student” qualification to “first generation student.”

Senior officials in President Joe Biden’s Department of Education defied a federal court order in launching investigations of gender identity and sexual orientation discrimination in schools, according to a federal watchdog finding.

The Office of Special Counsel released a report this week that confirmed the disclosure of Education Department whistleblower Timothy Mattson, who said the department’s Office of Civil Rights unlawfully processed complaints about gender identity discrimination after a federal judge halted an executive order from going into effect that was the basis for the investigations.

According to Mattson’s disclosure, the Office for Civil Rights investigated a school that restricted athletic competition to biological sex.

The U.S. Justice Department’s Civil Rights division announced Thursday, June 11, that the University of California, Davis School of Medicine (Davis Med) violates Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 by discriminating on the basis of race in its admissions process. The determination follows a six-month investigation prompted by concerns over post-2023 affirmative action practices.

The findings center on Davis Med’s efforts to maintain racial diversity after the Supreme Court’s Students for Fair Admissions v. Harvard (SFFA) decision, which banned race-based admissions in higher education. The DOJ concluded that the school intentionally circumvented this ruling by using socioeconomic proxies for race.

The Department of Justice under President Donald Trump just took a pivotal step toward removing government-endorsed discrimination from America’s legal system and undermining the institutional apparatus of critical race theory.

Critical race theory teaches that America is systemically racist and that even racially neutral policies are truly racist if they result in better outcomes for members of one race than for members of another. That’s the exact same logic as the legal theory known as “disparate impact.”

Cornell Law School defines disparate impact as a policy or rule “that seems neutral but has a negative impact on a specific protected class of persons.”

Republican House lawmakers have introduced legislation to stop sexual predators from obtaining children through the use of surrogacy, after a homosexual registered sex offender purchased a baby boy in Pennsylvania.

Last year, LifeSiteNews covered the case of Brandon Mitchell, a Tier 1 sex offender in Pennsylvania, convicted of “sexual abuse of children” and “possession of child pornography.” A high school chemistry teacher at the time, Mitchell was arrested in 2016 for numerous “sexually explicit solicitations and conversations” with a 16-year-old student after he was found to have sent 20 explicit photos and a sexually explicit video of himself. 

Despite this record, Mitchell and his “husband” Logan Riley shared a video of them celebrating holidays with the surrogate-born boy through the first year of his life.

Now, Rep. Rep. Scott Perry (R-PA) has introduced HR 9131, the Protecting Kids From Creeps Act, which punishes surrogacy agencies that fail to conduct background checks on clients; and HR 9132, the Preventing International Surrogacy Exploitation Act, which forbids foreign nationals from using American-based surrogacy services.

“These bills put children first (which should always be the case, and some seem to be forgetting that), and help prevent predators / foreign actors from obtaining children in our Nation for personal gain, profit, or other nefarious reasons,” Perry declared.

On Friday evening, the US vice-president, JD Vance, blamed Henry Nowak’s murder on the “mass invasion of migrants” and said the “only response” was “righteous anger”, prompting a rebuke from Downing Street which hit out at “people trying to interfere in our democracy and seeking to stir up division”.

The UK justice secretary and deputy prime minister, David Lammy, revealed to Sky News’ Trevor Phillips that he spoke to Vance yesterday following his intervention. Lammy, who is rumoured to be good friends with the vice-president, said:

I spoke to the vice president yesterday, and I wanted to emphasise a number of things.

The first is that our democratic process is working well. This young man has been convicted. There is an investigation into the police by the Independent Police (Conduct)Authority.

There is an investigation into Hampshire Police by the inspectorate. The (attorney general) is looking at the sentencing in relation to this. The national police chiefs are looking at the guidance in relation to this.

The second thing was I disagree with him. This has got nothing to do with mass migration. This young man was a Brit. Let’s be clear about that. And I said, ‘look, Mr vice president, you’re wrong about this’.

And it’s also the case that actually murder is coming down in the United Kingdom. So we had an agreeable conversation. But we disagree.

If you hope to appeal to the average voter, the last thing a candidate should be doing is throwing around a basketball, promising things that don’t make sense. But that is precisely what several New York Democrats did, as they beg voters to cast their ballots in their favor, as the election is on June 21.

The ad starts with Mayor Zohran Mamdani claiming “anything is possible with a great team,” right before passing the ball to Brad Lander. Lander claims he will block billionaires from buying elections. It is unclear how he will have the power to prevent people from doing that, but that is because it is just another leftist lie to give people hope that their vote matters. He claims this will protect Democracy. However, for some reason, whenever the left claims to be fighting for Democracy, it almost always seems to destroy it. Why do you think that is?

Lander then passed the ball to Darializa Avila Chevalier, who claims she will defend New York by abolishing ICE. It is not known how you can defend the people of your city by fighting for foreign nationals who have broken federal immigration laws, but that is because you cannot. By pretending to fight for New Yorkers, she has proven who she truly intends to represent, and it certainly is not you — the American people. But what else is new?

New York Democrats Mark Pride Month By Erasing ‘Mother’ and ‘Father’ From State Legislation– townhall.com

EXCERPT:

It’s Pride Month, so Democrats are not only donning the rainbow flag, they’re continuing their work to erase gendered language from our lexicon and destroy the nuclear family. In New York, a bill was just advanced that would replace the terms ‘mother’ and ‘father’ with the Orwellian ‘gestating parent’ and ‘non-gestating parent.

Here’s more:

A woke new bill erases the terms “mother” and “father” from state child custody and parental laws — a gender-neutral rewriting that’s expected to spark a flood of similarly clunky legislation.

“Mother” would be replaced with “gestating parent” while “father” becomes “non-gestating parent” or “parent” in family court along with in domestic and education law, under the legislation, passed this week by state Democrats.

“Paternity” proceedings to determine a child’s biological father would meanwhile become “parentage” cases, under the bill, which was rammed through the Assembly in March and of the Senate this week.

A “putative father” — also known as a deadbeat dad — would now be called “an alleged parent” in official state records, under the bill, which was sponsored by liberals Sen. Luis Sepulveda (D-Bronx) and Assemblywoman Amy Paulin (D-Westchester) and will go to Gov. Kathy Hochul’s desk for approval.

“It’s woke culture run amok. It’s one-upmanship,” said state Conservative Party Chairman Gerard Kassar, a former longtime state Senate and Assembly staffer.

Mullin is a member of the Cherokee Nation and the first Native American to serve as DHS Secretary.

During a tense Homeland Security Committee hearing in the House on Wednesday, Rep. LaMonica McIver (D-NJ) confronted DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin over alleged inhumane conditions at Delaney Hall, a federal immigration detention facility in Newark, New Jersey. Mullin is a member of the Cherokee Nation and the first Native American to serve in his position.

McIver, visibly frustrated, told Mullin: “Secretary Mullin, you talk about racism a lot in today’s hearing. You know what’s racist? It’s the fact that every detainee in Delaney Hall is a person of color. The cruelty runs to the top of DHS,” she went on, “weaponizing the immigration system for your president and this administration’s racist grievances.” Delaney Hall is an immigration enforcement facility in a state with nearly half a million illegal immigrants who are primarily Hispanic.

McIver began the interaction by asking Mullin if he had ever visited Delaney Hall, to which Mullin said no before going on to read an open letter signed by detainees at the Newark-based detention facility. The New Jersey representative read the letter, which detailed alleged unsanitary conditions and inedible food. DHS alleges that the food and conditions are fine and notes that those detained could leave at any time and head back to their home countries. They are detained while waiting for their immigration hearings.

EXCERPT:

This takes us to an eye-opening new Gallup poll that was released on June 3:

Approval of same-sex marriage, moral acceptance of gay and lesbian relations, and endorsement of gender changes are all down from peaks reached in the early 2020s.

While most Americans still favor legal same-sex marriages, the 65% who do so today is down six percentage points from the peak in 2022 and 2023. Similarly, the percentage viewing gay or lesbian relations as morally acceptable, 62%, has not been lower since 2016. And the share of Americans who consider changing one’s gender morally acceptable has declined eight points over the past five years, to 38%.

On three key LGBTQ issues — same-sex marriage, the morality of homosexuality, and gender identity — Gallup’s polling data told the same exact story: Popularity for all three skyrocketed between the 2010s and the early 2020s. The future, it seemed, was pro-trans and pro-LGBTQ.

But over the past few years, the pendulum swung HARD in the opposite direction:

Between 1996 and 2022, the percentage of U.S. adults in favor of legalizing same-sex marriage increased by 44 points, from 27% to 71%. In 2024, the figure dipped to 69%, and it has shown a marginal decline each year since.

Gallup first asked about the morality of same-sex relations in 2001, when 40% said they were morally acceptable. By 2022, 71% held that view, before a sharp drop to 64% in 2023, holding at about that level during the past three years.

When Gallup first asked about changing one’s gender in 2021, 46% found it morally acceptable, and 51% found it morally wrong. Today, those numbers stand at 38% and 57%, respectively.

Wisconsin Democrat Gov. Tony Evers is doubling down on seemingly defying a recent U.S. Supreme Court ruling on so-called “conversion therapy” for children.

The moment came during a Monday “Pride Flag Raising” event at the State Capitol. While flanked by attendees waiving rainbow flags, the left-wing governor bragged about vetoing bills passed by the Republican-controlled General Assembly that he claimed “target[ed]” so-called “trans kids” and “harm[ed] the health, safety, and security of LGBTQ Wisconsinites.”

In doing so, Evers went on to tout a June 2021 executive order he signed “banning the use of state and federal funds for conversion therapy on our kids.” The governor’s administration also adopted a rule declaring it “unprofessional conduct” for any state Marriage and Family Therapy, Professional Counseling, and Social Work Examining Board licensee to provide therapy that tells the truth about sex and gender ideology. The regulation took effect last year following a favorable ruling from Wisconsin’s liberal Supreme Court.

Evidently believing Digwa’s accusations but not Nowak’s cries for help, the police rolled Nowak’s limp body over and placed handcuffs on his wrists. In response to his repeated pleas for treatment of his stab wounds, police can be heard telling him, “I don’t think you have [been stabbed], mate.” He died moments after police read him his rights as an accused criminal.

Henry Nowak was mortally wounded, but what happened in the moments before he would ultimately succumb to his injuries is even more appalling. Police pinned Nowak down and began to handcuff him as he cried out for help all because his attacker accused him of racism.

Eventually, Vickrum Digwa is seen in the video walking away from Nowak, with Nowak heard saying “Innit bad man, what bad man.
