Second Amendment leaders press DOGE to stop health agencies’ gun control studies

/

Articles / Politics & Policy / Second Amendment Second Amendment leaders press DOGE to stop health agencies’ gun control studies Contrary to the original intent of a late-nineties budget rider, health agencies like the CDC have spent the last half a decade funding research supporting gun control efforts on behalf of the Biden administration. By: Elon Musk is used to being vilified by the left, particularly since he was tasked by President Donald Trump to lead the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) in trimming the waste, fraud and abuse that has bloated federal government. Now, one section of the citizenry is actually asking him to push harder: Second Amendment advocates are asking him to block taxpayer-funded health agencies from spending millions on gun control research. There has been legislation — called the Dickey Amendment — on the books since 1997 that provides a clear pathway for DOGE to remove tens of millions of dollars spent by agencies like the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) on gun control research and grants. That law had been followed until 2018, when Congress “clarified” the rider. Resulting in something closer to rescission than clarification, in 2020, the federal omnibus spending bill presented to President Biden earmarked the first funding for such expenditures since 1996. Dickey Amendment revival stalled Last year, Rep. Marianette Miller-Meeks, R-Iowa, revived efforts to stop such research through an amendment to the appropriations package for the Labor, Human Services, and Education departments. It specifically stipulated that “none of the funds made available by this Act may be used by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to conduct or support any firearm injury and mortality prevention research.” Miller-Meeks is a longtime supporter of Second Amendment rights. “As a physician and former Director of Public Health in Iowa, I believe that our leading public health agency should be focusing on researching and preventing communicable diseases, which was what the CDC was originally created to do – not prioritizing gun control,” she posted to ‘X’ ahead of the November 15 vote.  It passed in the House of Representatives 216-211. However, it stalled in the Senate and was never signed into law by then-President Joe Biden. Taking guns from Grandpa Now, Gun Owners of America (GOA) one of the nation’s largest gun rights groups, is pushing for the CDC’s gun research department to get the DOGE treatment. GOA Executive Vice President Erich Pratt spoke to Furthermore with Amanda Head Podcast about the funding, including taxpayer money used to study the effectiveness of gun confiscation of all ages and also researching a sundown age for seniors to relinquish personal firearms. “That right there is tilted towards the left…money to study the benefits of expanded background checks and registration, the best age to set a second amendment retirement age for senior citizens,” he continued. “You know, last I checked, there wasn’t a retirement clause on any of the Bill of Rights. But this is what they want to do. They fund these studies to say, okay, you might retire at age 65 but, at age 71, take guns from grandpa.” Research grants currently active within CDC include $3.6 million for ‘firearm retirement’ for senior citizens, $1.2 million for ‘check-ins’ on ‘guns at home,’ $2.1 million to study ‘firearm possession’ by Asian Americans, $126,000 on ‘Black Americans’ elevated gun violence exposure,’ $490,000 on ‘comparing states gun policies,’ $349,000 on ‘showing if firearm law reduces mortality,’ and $518,000 on ‘firearm storage & confiscation laws.’ Musk and the Second Amendment With a self-deletion date set at the country’s semi sesquicentennial next July, DOGE has roughly 470 days to deliver on its promise to drastically reduced the amount of waste, fraud and abuse in the federal government. The current tally is now at $115 billion, according to the DOGE tracker website. While neither DOGE nor Musk have made  announcements concerning the CDC’s gun-control spending, it’s possible that Second Amendment advocates will find a sympathetic ear at DOGE. The National Rifle Association (NRA), through its house organ “America’s First Freedom” produced a wish list for DOGE that asks them to advise President Trump to sign an executive action stating that the ATF cannot attempt to rewrite gun-control law and to restrict the ATF to “treat the lawfully armed public like the law-abiding citizens they are.” The NRA also said that the Biden administration “blamed gun stores for being responsible for rising crime rates, even though the ATF’s own statistics shows this not to be the case.” Suggesting several cuts in specific, the 5 million member 501(c)4 asks DOGE to disband the White House “Office of Gun Violence Prevention;” dismantle the Department of Justice’s “red-flag” law clearinghouse; end what they call “government funding of bogus gun-control advocacy posing as research;” and they recommend revoking the Biden administration’s export licensing crackdown on American gun companies through the U.S. Commerce Department. Although DOGE has not set its sights on any gun-control related waste or abuse — at least publicly — Musk has not been shy about expressing his support for the right to bear arms. On the 2024 campaign trial on behalf of President Trump, Musk responded to Vice President Kamala Harris’ suggested mandatory gun buyback program by saying “The right to bear arms is there to protect free speech and stop a tyrannical government from taking your rights away! That’s why the first thing that all tyrants do is disarm the people, just like Chavez did when he was first elected. After that, no more real elections in Venezuela.” Even in his support for gun ownership, Musk has proven yet again to be something of a contrarian. In 2022, Musk told CNBC in that “I strongly believe that the right to bear arms is an important safeguard against potential tyranny of government. Historically, maintaining their power over the people is why those in power did not allow public ownership of guns.” In the same interview, Musk also underscored his support for “tight background checks” for all gun sales and limiting sales of assault weapons to people in special circumstances, like gun range owners, or people who live in a “high risk location, like gang warfare.

Angry democrats gone wild

Articles / Elections / Politics & Policy Angry democrats gone wild With wild scenes from the nation’s students deploying to Spring Break hot spots, Democrats are in tight competition for questionable decisions. By: Since the November election produced no discernible pivot from Democrats, midterm battleground voters show no new love for the party or their message. In a blow to platform architects and champions of progressivism in the Democratic Party, a new Navigator Research poll shows that a majority of those polled, 56%, do not believe Democrats are looking out for working people. Just 39% believe they have the right priorities. One of the researchers who conducted the poll met with House Democrats at their Issues Conference on Wednesday in Leesberg, Virginia to discuss the party’s platform heading into the crucial 2026 midterms. If Democrats are able to flip the House of Representatives, it gives them a small boost in combatting President Donald Trump’s agenda. Without that, they will remain effectively powerless to stop anything out of the executive, with the exception of fighting long court battles to overturn Trump and Republicans’ actions. A deeper dive into the poll reveals how voters feel about work and its value to the Democratic Party. Only 44% reported that they think Democrats respect work. An even smaller margin, 39%, believe Democrats value work. An even harsher blow: 69% of voters said Democrats focus too much on being politically correct. 51% said the identifying term “elitist” fits the party well. According to the same survey, however, Republicans have their own set of issues. 54% of respondents said they view Republicans in Congress unfavorably. Roughly one third said they approve of Republicans’ handling of the economy. Perhaps the harshest blow in the results was the finding that among independents, only 27% believe Democrats are focused on helping them. 55% said Democrats are focused on others. Since the campaign for the 2024 general election, the Democratic Party has experienced a great deal of difficultly fusing the fringes of their party and congealing a winning message. On core issues like the border, economy, law-and-order and social issues like trans rights, Democrats stumbled over their own messaging. Since then, they’ve yet to find even one major issue that aligns with broad sentiment in the country. Tennessee Senator Marsha Blackburn joined the Furthermore with Amanda Head Podcast on Friday and spoke to this very issue: “The American people gave Donald Trump an overwhelming vote to deal with the border, inflation, get our country back to its standing in the world, crime in our communities, the bureaucracy and reduce the federal government, and find a way to get this country back on track. Donald Trump made that promise. That is exactly what he with a Republican House, and Republican Senate is doing so the Democrats again find themselves on the wrong side of the issue, and the American people are looking at them and their antics and saying to them, ‘you are out of touch with where the American people are.’” To Blackburn’s point, many high profile Democrats have been airing their grievances publicly. Democrat senator Elissa Slotkin, D-Mich., appeared on ABC’s The View told their viewers, “I think there’s a feeling in the country, and I often say this, we’re about to turn 250-years-old, right? We’re still pretty young for a country. These are, like, our angry teenage years, right?” Further insulting voters she continued, “we are going through this push and pull where we’re happy, we’re sad, we want this, we want that, and what do you do when you have a teenager who’s threatening themselves and others? You just try to get them through this period alive so that their brain can fully form and you can come back.” Another Democrat with brow-raising comments: that of Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders. Sanders, who was born in 1941 and is of Jewish heritage, lived his early years during the Holocaust and World War II. He also was an adult during Vietnam, the Cuban Missile Crisis, and 9/11. Despite living through those harrowing periods in our nation’s past, he told Jon Lovett on Pod Save America that, “these are the scariest times in my life.” Sanders, who owns three homes, told the podcaster, “it is not just that they want to give tax breaks to billionaires and cut programs for working people. Trump is suing major media outlets and is threatening to investigate PBS and NPR. So it’s not only the power of money, it’s also combined with that the movement toward authoritarianism.” TOP STORIES Angry democrats gone wild Beyond budgeting, Republicans hope to force spending ‘showdown’ with two arcane weapons Philadelphia Eagles to visit the White House to celebrate Super Bowl win After a flurry of activity right out of the gate, Trump takes victory lap in speech to America Republicans float two-part plan to avert government shutdown, White House meeting set Wednesday LATEST EPISODES Mike Benz Unredacted: JFK assassination files show CIA’s deep & everlasting covert infiltration of US government Former Health & Human Services Director & FDA advisor applauds Secretary RFK’s ‘Operation Stork Speed’ 5 yrs later, Dr. Risch details where health officials went wrong & why they couldn’t ’slow the spread’ in 15 days MasterChef Winner Turned Queen of Cookies: Whitney Miller’s Journey in Southern Cooking & Baking White House Q&A with Trump, Sen.

Healing America: RFK Jr.’s potential first actions to start rebuilding public health

/

Articles / Health / Politics & Policy Healing America: RFK Jr.’s potential first actions to start rebuilding public health America’s health has been declining for decades. The road was rocky through confirmation but new Secretary of HHS Robert F. Kennedy Jr. plans changes to reverse the trend. By: Since his confirmation by the United States Senate by a vote of 52 to 45, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will take over the daunting assignment of overhauling America’s Department of Health and Human Services, setting new guidance for vaccines, health protocols, income security programs, funding and implementing health initiatives and more. In August of 2024, Kennedy announced that he was suspending his campaign and endorsing Donald Trump for president. Among the issues he indicated contributed to his decision were the war in Ukraine, free speech, and “a war on our children.” The latter item proved to resonate strongly with the MAGA faithful as they collectively welcomed Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) initiatives and figures into the support base with fervor. At a Glendale, Arizona rally in August, Kennedy joined Trump on stage, walking out to pyrotechnics, the Foo Fighter’s song, “My Hero,” and roaring applause with chants of “Bobby! Bobby!” from the crowd.  Public now more skeptical With previous differences on issue like abortion and environmental causes, the war on children – his health initiatives to end chronic diseases and remove toxic chemicals from items on America’s store and pharmacy shelves – was a home run with the majority of voters.  Perfectly nestled within the MAGA theme to reduce government, fight bureaucracy and establishment medicine, his website cites a mission to “dismantle the corporate stranglehold on our government agencies that has led to widespread chronic disease, environmental degradation, and rampant public distrust.” Seizing on fresh sentiment that the Covid-19 pandemic was mismanaged and used as a means to overregulate and over-mandate, Trump voters were quickly shifting from accepting guidance on the Covid-19 vaccine to skepticism over that vaccine and others, particularly childhood vaccinations.  There are a number of health items the MAG/HA movement is looking to see dealt with soon. Reduce consumption of processed foods Dozens of studies including one published by the BMJ Group found that “diets rich in ultra-processed foods with increased risks for premature death, cardiovascular disease, mental health disorders, diabetes, obesity, and sleep problems.” Despite the dire warnings, ultra processed foods account for more than half of the caloric intake of American households and has increased at a faster pace than consumption of ultra-processed foods outside the home. This is not only a food industry issue, it’s cultural. Iconic American brands like Mountain Dew, Doritos, Coffee-Mate, Dunkin’ Donuts, Pringles and Lays often buy up the most coveted timeslots during the Super Bowl. Food dyes removed This is an issue that predates both Trump and Kennedy’s tenure. On January 16, 2025, the Food and Drug Administration finally issued a ban on Red Dye No 3, also known as Red 3. It is currently used in nearly 3,000 products in the United States despite its ban in other countries. The European Union banned the substance over three decades ago, as well as the UK, China, Japan, Australia and New Zealand. Food dyes serve no nutritional value. They only serve the aesthetics of a food item like maraschino cherry manufacturers who use it to bring out the bright red hues.  In addition to studies done in the 1990’s linking Red 3 to thyroid cancer in rats, it “disrupts thyroid hormone regulation through several mechanisms. It inhibits the thyroid gland’s ability to absorb iodine, a key component for synthesizing thyroid hormones, and blocks an enzyme essential for converting one thyroid hormone to another, contributing to thyroid dysfunction. Along with other impairments in thyroid hormone function, Red 3 increases the risk of thyroid-related disorders. The ban doesn’t go into effect until January 15, 2027, though Kennedy may work immediately to move up that deadline.  Ban Big Pharma from the airwaves While pharmaceutical advertisements on television have been permitted by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration since the mid-1980s, many Americans have noticed a barrage in recent years. They’re not crazy. The number of TV pharma ads exploded 65% between 2012 and 2016. Why? Drug manufacturers found that if they could pique the interest of consumers and patients at home, they would take that interest to the doctor’s office with them and bring it up with their physician. Coupled with the TV campaign was a concerted push by pharmaceutical representatives who love to bomb doctor’s offices and, et voilá. A customer is made. Reliance on pharmaceuticals Only two countries allow such ads: the United States and New Zealand. Naturally, the advertisements highlight the benefits of the drug for the entire purchased time slot, with a rapid-reader rattling off the warnings at the very end and at a lower volume than the rest of the ad.  In general, public sentiment is shifting away from reliance on pharmaceuticals, even if public health tells a different story. Sixty percent of American adults have at least one chronic condition and 12% have five or more, according to the Centers for Disease Control. Conditions like heart disease, cancer, diabetes and chronic respiratory diseases are the most prevalent. These chronic diseases count for more than $1 trillion in healthcare costs annually in the United States. In fact, according to the study, “about 90% of the annual $4.1 trillion health care expenditure is attributed to managing and treating chronic diseases and mental health conditions.”  Americans are sick. And they are sick of being sick. Founder and CEO of Daily Nouri, a company that focuses on balancing all the systems of the body through probiotic health, said that “the American people are eager for answers. Millions of Americans have been demanding transparency into the alarming decline of human health and the simultaneous growth of food and pharma. Americans have asked for, and will be receptive to, common sense solutions.” Challenge the established narrative “Improving health in America is a complex issue without a one-size-fits-all answer. RFK Jr. seeks to adopt a comprehensive approach that encompasses food-related initiatives, exercise, and supplements, in addition to conventional pharmaceuticals

Democrat Dilemma: DEI-driven party elects two white men with beliefs that clash with middle America

/

Uncategorized Democrat Dilemma: DEI-driven party elects two white men with beliefs that clash with middle America “I think the Democratic brand is hurting because people feel that you cannot, with conviction and integrity, tell me what you honestly feel about some hard issues,” a Democrat leader laments. By: Democrats who pressed diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) for years and got roundly rejected at the polls last year chose two new executives to lead their party out of the political desert. But there’s one catch: they are two white men who don’t fit the identity politics of the party’s base and hold widely progressive views that clash with Middle America. The Democratic National Committee’s election this past weekend of Minnesotan Ken Martin to be chairman and anti-gun activist David Hogg have mystified political observers on both sides of the aisle after an election in which voters clearly rejected the far-left drift of the party. “Democrats have once again fallen victim to identity politics, and it’s going to be very hard for Democrats to walk away from identity politics,” Rep. Nick Begich, R-Alaska, who ousted a Democrat incumbent in November, told Just the News. “They’ve essentially evangelized their base to the point where the base has religion around identity and that base is not going to be satisfied unless their leadership continues down that line of thinking,” he added. Many Democrats agree, including Faiz Shakir, former manager of Bernie Sanders 2020 presidential campaign. “I’m frustrated by the way in which we utilize identity to break ourselves apart,” he told the crowd. “Listen, I worked at the ACLU. I’m supportive of diversity, equity and all the rest. But we’re competing over the wrong thing when we should be joining together to fight together.” After the election, Shakir continued to be frustrated that new leadership hadn’t solved a core problem. “I think the Democratic brand is hurting because people feel that you cannot, with conviction and integrity, tell me what you honestly feel about some hard issues,” he told an interviewer. The obsession with far-left values has also led Democrats to explain away their stinging election losses with an excuse most voters don’t share. MSNBC’s Jonathan Capehart asked the eight candidates on stage during the DNC election, “So, I’m going to have a show of hands. How many of you believe that racism and misogyny played a role in Vice President Harris’ defeat?” Every single candidate raised their hand, including Martin and Hogg. Soon after, the DNC voted two white men to be its next leaders, rejecting more diverse candidates that included a black woman, two white women and a Muslim man. For many it was a display of hypocrisy for a party whose DEI mantra demanded racial and gender equity in education, government and business over the past several years. Blowback “You can tell a lot about somebody based not on what they say, but what they do. And the Democrat Party, you know, they have a lot of rhetoric around DEI,” Begich said. Polling shows the Democrat focus on DEI comes with a blowback. A recent Napolitan News survey found that 63% of Americans oppose the government doing business with companies that hold the basic tenet of DEI: that America is fundamentally racist and sexist. “DEI was never popular with the public. It had – and still has – a strong following among progressives,” pollster Scott Rasmussen said. “They pushed it into government and corporate America below the radar. Once it became visible, the backlash was inevitable.” What Americans are most concerned about – and hold great hope Donald Trump will fix – are the issues that most impact their pocketbooks and families. Credit card debt has skyrocketed to an historic $1 trillion collectively by spring 2024. Hardship withdrawals from retirement accounts exploded 30% with the most common reason cited being avoiding evictions or foreclosure and unpaid medical bills. In the months following the end of COVID lockdowns and mandates, the lower income 80% of Americans (outside of the wealthiest 20%) had less cash than before the pandemic. The liberal effort to force transgenderism on students also has boomeranged, with even staunch liberals like Bill Maher rejecting it and wondering why it is only a phenomenon in blue states. “If this spike in trans children is all biological, why is it regional? Either Ohio is shaming them or California is creating them,” he quipped recently. Jump in Trump’s approval rating While Democrats lean into issues that polls show cost them the election, Trump is plowing ahead in reversing the Biden agenda and with majority support. His 53% approval rating is 10 points higher than the beginning of his first term. While entrenched in DEI priorities, this is the first time in 14 years that the DNC will not be run by a female or a person of color. To his credit, Martin claims to understand that those priorities must be in the wake. He told The New York Times that “for the first time in modern history, the majority of Americans believe that the Republican Party best represents the interests of the working class and the poor, and that the Democratic Party represents the interest of the wealthy an the elite.” If that sentiment remains and subsequent efforts to reverse course are successful, Democrats can possibly reverse the dynamic that caused Kamala Harris to lose out to Donald Trump with working class Americans. Common sense policies and reaching working class Americans are how you win elections.

NC GOP Chairman Says Democratic Voter Registrations Are Plummeting As Party Has ‘Abandoned’ Values

Articles / Elections 2024 / Politics & Policy NC GOP Chairman Says Democratic Voter Registrations Are Plummeting As Party Has ‘Abandoned’ Values Simmons said that Republicans from a structural standpoint are “better positioned than we’ve ever been” going into the 2024 election to win, specifically due to early voting. By: North Carolina GOP chairman Jason Simmons said that Democratic voter registrations in the Tar Heel State are plummeting because the party “abandoned” values the state holds. “As we’ve continued to see, whether it’s in urban, suburban or rural areas, people are fleeing the Democrat Party,” Simmons said on the “Furthermore with Amanda Head” podcast. “Their registration numbers here in North Carolina continue to fall as Republican registrations increase.” He said that Republicans from a “structural standpoint” are “better positioned than we’ve ever been” going into the 2024 election to win, specifically due to early voting. It was reported over the weekend that early voting numbers in North Carolina in 2024 exceeded 2020 numbers despite the devastation that Hurricane Helene brought to the state. Helene hit Florida a few weeks ago as a Category Four storm, and caused disastrous damage in Georgia, North and South Carolina, Tennessee, and Virginia. The Associated Press reports that parking lots at voting sites were full in areas in the Piedmont counties where there had been massive flooding from Hurricane Helene. “You have Democrats historically in this state fleeing its party because of the policies and direction that they have taken the party,” Simmons said. “They have abandoned the values that especially people here in North Carolina hold true.” TOP STORIES Trump Lawyer Suggests Jack Smith Plead The Fifth In Testimony, Suggests He's Complicit In Crimes NC GOP Chairman Says Democratic Voter Registrations Are Plummeting As Party Has 'Abandoned' Values Johnson Called Biden To Demand More Security For Trump: GOP Rep.

Former Trump Spokeswoman Predicts Democrats Will Swap Out Biden Following His Debate Performance

/

Articles / Elections 2024 / Politics & Policy Former Trump Spokeswoman Predicts Democrats Will Swap Out Biden Following His Debate Performance “They’re just setting up the next con, and we cannot fall for it,” Liz Harrington said. By: Presumptive GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump’s former spokeswoman, Liz Harrington, predicted that the Democrats will swap President Joe Biden out as the Democratic nominee following his debate performance. “We’re not running against Joe Biden,” Harrington said on the “Furthermore with Amanda Head” podcast. “This is part of the whole show…..like, we’re beating Joe Biden? No. They’re putting someone else in, and they’re going to continue to lie about President Trump.” Trump and Biden squared off in the first presidential debate hosted by CNN earlier this week and Biden’s performance was considered very weak. As a result, some Democratic leaders have been scrambling to find a potential replacement for Biden, according to Politico. The White House has maintained that Biden will remain in the race. “They’re just setting up the next con, and we cannot fall for it,” Harrington said. She went on to predict that top Democrats such as former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., will likely try to talk him into stepping down. Harrington also praised Trump for being genuine on the debate stage the other night. “I know Americans hate being lied to,” she said. “That’s why we love Trump. Trump is the only one who doesn’t lie to us, and we’re just so sick of it.” TOP STORIES Trump Lawyer Suggests Jack Smith Plead The Fifth In Testimony, Suggests He's Complicit In Crimes NC GOP Chairman Says Democratic Voter Registrations Are Plummeting As Party Has 'Abandoned' Values Johnson Called Biden To Demand More Security For Trump: GOP Rep.

Co-founder of RFK Jr. Super PAC says He is Polling Well with Voters Under 45

/

Articles / Elections 2024 / Politics & Policy Co-founder of RFK Jr. Super PAC says He is Polling Well with Voters Under 45 “Clearly, they are panicked to have him on the stage,” Tony Lyons said. By: Co-founder of RFK Jr. Super PAC, Tony Lyons, said that the Democrat-turned-Independent presidential candidate is polling very well with voters under 45. “He’s doing so incredibly well with people under 45,” Lyons said on the “Furthermore with Amanda Head” podcast. “So if the election was held now, recent polling showed that he would win. He would beat both Biden and Trump with people just under 45.” Lyons further asserted that Kennedy needs to focus on appealing to the Baby Boomer generation and that Facebook is shadow banning his attempt to reach them. Former President Donald Trump and President Joe Biden both agreed on Wednesday to participate in two presidential debates outside of the traditional debates hosted by the non-partisan Commission on Presidential Debates. Kennedy said he was being purposely left out of the debates, which he claims would be between two candidates that most of the country does not want. “Clearly, they are panicked to have him on the stage because the contrast between Bobby Kennedy and his competitors, I think, would be really, really dramatic,” Lyons said.

Oklahoma State School Superintendent says the State Will Sue Over Biden’s Changes to Title IX

Articles / Education / Politics & Policy Oklahoma State School Superintendent says the State Will Sue Over Biden’s Changes to Title IX The federal Department of Education says public schools that don’t comply with the new regulations will not receiving federal funding. By: Oklahoma State Superintendent of Public Instruction Ryan Walters says the state’s schools will not comply with President Joe Biden’s changes to Title IX and he plans to file a lawsuit. “We told the Biden administration two things,” Walters said on the “Furthermore with Amanda Head” podcast. “Number one, we will not comply. We’re not going to do it. We are absolutely under no circumstances going to allow boys in girls’ bathrooms and boys in girls’ sports. And number two, we’re going to sue you. We’re going to stop this from going into effect nationally.” Biden’s Department of Education on April 19 expanded the definition of sex discrimination to include gender identity and pregnancy, rolling back Trump-era rules on student sexual-misconduct cases that raised the bar of proof for sexual misconduct and bolstered the rights of those accused. “It is absolutely absurd that they would be willing to endanger young girls and women this way,” Walters said. “It is absurd. They would all of a sudden turn a school system on its head.” Florida Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis likewise declared his state will not comply with the Title IX redefinition. The federal Department of Education says public schools that don’t comply with the new regulations will not receive federal funding. “We stepped in the way and said, ‘Hey, we’re not going to comply. We’re ordering you not to comply with Joe Biden and if he got a problem with it, he can come down here and try to make me do it,’” said Walters. “Let me tell you, that’s not going to happen.” TOP STORIES Trump Lawyer Suggests Jack Smith Plead The Fifth In Testimony, Suggests He's Complicit In Crimes NC GOP Chairman Says Democratic Voter Registrations Are Plummeting As Party Has 'Abandoned' Values Johnson Called Biden To Demand More Security For Trump: GOP Rep.

Ohio Secretary of State says GOP Has to Take Advantage of Early Voting and Get Votes That Way

Articles / Elections 2024 / Politics & Policy Ohio Secretary of State says GOP Has to Take Advantage of Early Voting and Get Votes That Way “If the rules of the game allow you to score through early voting, absentee voting or Election Day voting, you’ve got to do all three of those,” LaRose said. By: Ohio GOP Secretary of State Frank LaRose says that Republicans should use early voting to their advantage as Election Day 2024 gets closer. While the Republican Party has been slower at embracing early voting unlike their Democrat counterparts, prominent GOP members including former President Donald Trump have been encouraging the Republican base to embrace early voting. “The rules of the game of football allow you to score three ways. You can run, you can pass or you can kick,” LaRose said. “If I was a football coach and said this whole season, ‘We’re gonna go out on the field and we’re only going to score points by running. We’re not going to pass or kick.’ We would lose.” “That’s foolish as a party,” he continued. “If the rules of the game allow you to score through early voting, absentee voting or Election Day voting, you’ve got to do all three of those.” Other states such as Georgia are also embracing early voting as a way to win. Former Georgia GOP Sen. Kelly Loeffler asserted on the “John Solomon Reports” podcast the strength of the GOP’s ground game and highlighted that early voting was about 46 percent.

Education Dept to Open Civil Rights Probe into UC Berkeley Allegedly Banning White People from Farm

Articles / Education / Politics & Policy Education Dept to Open Civil Rights Probe into UC Berkeley Allegedly Banning White People from Farm “We envision a vibrant community farm, a model of shared governance and co-stewardship that helps restore community resilience,” the farm’s website reads. By: The Department of Education is looking into an allegation that the University of California at Berkeley is prohibiting white residents from using a community farm on Saturdays. The department’s Office for Civil Rights said the agency does not comment on pending investigations. However, a Berkeley spokesperson told Just the News the university will be cooperating with the probe but offered no further comment. The complaint was file by the nonprofit law firm Mountain States Legal Foundation, which on Tuesday said the department was looking into the allegation. General counsel for the group, William Trachman, said a whistleblower came forward and alleged the university-ownedGill Tract Community Farm offered its space and services only to black, indigenous and people of color on Saturdays. The farm was launched in 2013 as a partnership between the university and different neighborhoods in the area, according to The New York Post. “We envision a vibrant community farm, a model of shared governance and co-stewardship that helps restore community resilience,” the farm’s website reads. Trachman said recently on the “Furthermore with Amanda Head” podcast the whistleblower believes in the farm’s mission statement but doesn’t support the alleged discrimination. “That person who shall remain nameless reached out to us and sent us the documents that proved that Saturdays were [Black, Indigenous and People of Color] Only days,” he said. “So we filed a complaint. Not a lawsuit, but a complaint.” Trachman previously served in the Department of Education as Deputy Assistant Secretary in the Office for Civil Rights and has clerked on the circuit court. “As a public institution, UC Berkeley is bound by federal civil rights and anti-discrimination laws, and the Equal Protection Clause of the Constitution,” the group says.
