Hi guys…I’m spending the night at my parents so my dad can get a solid night’s sleep & I can help Mom, if she needs it. It’s been a week since her broken arm surgery & the splint should come off in a week, if all goes well. She’s had some ups & downs but was doing well when I got here & ever since. Earlier yesterday she had some verbal confusion (that she was aware of) which seemed to clear up after a nap. Those 80-somethings are hanging pretty tough, though both tend to be tired out since all of this upheaval.
Mom heard from my cousin that her son did well with the kidney transplant & his new kidney seems to be working for him. I don’t know any other details.
Last I spoke w/ my oldest son his daughter Finley‘s specialty eye appointment hadn’t happened yet. So still waiting on info there.
This Sunday my husband will be playing bass for the first time at his “new” church, where our 2 oldest sons & youngest DIL & 2 granddaughters all attend. Hopefully we’ll be able to get All our kids out to support him on this inaugural worship adventure, especially since it’s also Father’s Day.
Thank you to all those who lifted up these situations in prayer–Much Appreciated.
God’s Best Blessings to All. Have a Wonderful Weekend! In Jesus’ Love ❤

American Rancher Has Advice To The Idaho Farmers Having Their Crops Destroyed By The Half A Million Acres Of Farmland Water Being Shutoff By The US Government “Group up together and go open those valves up and guard them. — Go get your water. Turn it on. Keep guards on all the head gates and, take your water. That’s your water” “I’ve got the question here. I’d like some of you folks to answer it. It’s about Idaho over there in Idaho. The, uh, so called authorities are threatening to shut the water off the potato growers and the grain growers and the and the people. Hey., the way I understand it, that’s your water right farmers, not theirs. They’re stepping in. They’re acting like they’re they’re in charge. Go get your grouped up. Group up together, and, uh, go open those valves up and guard them. They haven’t got enough people over there to fight you. Go get your water. Turn it on. Keep guards on all the head gates, and, uh, take your water. That’s your water. If you don’t take it, it becomes theirs. That’s the way most of water law is written. If you don’t physically go ahead and take it, it becomes the person holding it. Maybe I’m wrong. This is a question. Like I say, give me some answers. But that’s how you get your crop in the in the warehouse. Okay? Do you hear me now?” This is true because if water rights are not used they can be taken. In Idaho this takes 5 years, so if the Government drags this out, it’ll destroy these farms forever.

Morning GA!
didn’t gatesofhell just break ground on a nuclear site somewhere out there as well? i’d bet dollars to donuts it’s the lithium facility. there was an article about the marcellus shale in the northeast where they use fracking to retrieve the natural gas. they discovered tons of lithium in the wastewater that fracking requires. if they go full bore on the natrual gas (which the maggot’s admin is trying to limit to appease greenies) they could get 40% of the country’s lithium needs and we wouldn’t need to get it from chyna. AND removing the lithium from the wastewater actually makes cleaning that water easier and less expensive. they’re trying to get ahead of this because they don’t want fracking–NY is against it big time. well NYC–upstate would get on board–and that’s where the natural gas is.

EXCERPT: “Republicans have prioritized election integrity this year with new laws, lawsuits, and congressional investigative subpoenas ahead of the November general election. And they have already scored some wins against Democratic-led jurisdictions.
The multifaceted approach in 2024 contrasts with the GOP strategy four years ago that mostly focused on litigation only.
In 2020, there were as many as 400 lawsuits brought by both Republicans and Democrats regarding election procedures and laws as election administration was quickly changed during the COVID-19 lockdowns leading up to the presidential election.
In September 2022, The Amistad Project reviewed the 400 cases and found that a greater percentage of lawsuits brought by Republicans were won on the merits than those brought by Democrats. Overall, Republicans brought fewer cases to court (132) than Democrats (180) regarding the 2020 election as Democrats sued to change election laws before the November election.
This presidential election cycle, both Congress and the GOP are using their respective tools to ensure elections will be secure.
In Congress, House Administration Committee Chairman Bryan Steil, R-Wis., on Thursday subpoenaed 15 Cabinet officials for documents related to “Bidenbucks,” which is President Joe Biden’s executive order to turn as many federal agencies as possible into get-out-the-vote centers across all states.
On May 15, Steil requested the Cabinet secretaries provide materials regarding their work on Executive Order 14019, often referred to by critics as “Bidenbucks.” However, Steil has not received the requested documents, resulting in his issuing the subpoenas.
“Bidenbucks” alludes to “Zuckerbucks,” the roughly $400 million from Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg widely alleged to have been funneled through left-leaning nonprofits to turn out the Democratic vote in the 2020 presidential election.
According to Biden’s executive order, “The head of each agency shall evaluate ways in which the agency can, as appropriate and consistent with applicable law, promote voter registration and voter participation,” including “soliciting and facilitating approved, nonpartisan third-party organizations and State officials to provide voter registration services on agency premises.”
Steil told the John Solomon Reports podcast on Thursday, “What [Biden] did is effectively weaponized every federal agency to work to drive forward a partisan advantage in elections, in particular, by strategically working to register specific voters that they know will benefit the president.” ………

EXCERPT: “Already on the hot seat with the House Oversight Committee for allegedly misleading the public about funding gain-of-function research and colluding to suppress the lab-leak theory of COVID-19 origins, federal regulators and science journals now face scrutiny from another set of lawmakers over their claims about research alleged to be even more dangerous.
House Energy and Commerce Committee Republicans released an interim staff report this week alleging multiple agencies “misrepresented and deceived” lawmakers over 17 months by denying that staff proposed research to swap genes between “more lethal” and “more transmissible” lineages of monkeypox, much less that higher-ups approved the experiments.
The Department of Health and Human Services, National Institutes of Health and National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases slowly relented their obstructions, “almost always to avoid either a transcribed interview or a subpoena,” the report says.
An HHS letter March 19 and private documents review by “bipartisan Committee staff” the next day “confirmed what the agencies had been denying for over a year,” that NIH’s Institutional Biosafety Committee approved a proposal by NIAID “distinguished” pox virologist Bernard Moss and his team for a “bidirectional MPXV approach” between monkeypox clades 1 and 2 in 2015.
This means genes from the more deadly clade (1) – a term meaning a group of viruses that “usually have similar genetic changes” and “a single common ancestor” – would be inserted into the more infectious clade (2).
Committee Republicans called it “unacceptable and potentially criminal” behavior……”

Just The News: “A conservative media outlet is facing contempt from a Tennessee state court judge over its publication of leaked excerpts from the journal of Covenant School killer, Audrey Hale. Star News Digital Media, the owner of the Tennessee Star, published a series of articles containing several passages from the school shooter’s journal, which Nashville police had so far refused to turn over to the outlet.
According to the Star‘s reporting, Audrey Hale wrote about her ‘torture’ as a trans girl and how she would ‘kill’ to get puberty blockers. The Daily Mail quoted the Star as saying that “Hale wrote about anger toward her parents, how she hated her conservative Christian upbringing, and how she had suffered because hormone blockers were not available when she was as a child.”
The judge who is in charge of determining whether the journal should be released to the public, I’Ashea L. Myles, reportedly summoned the media outlet’s editor-in-chief Michael Patrick Leahy to appear in court to explain how the Star‘s reporting doesn’t violate her court orders. The outlet could face contempt proceedings or sanctions, the Associated Press reported.
Leahy’s attorney Daniel Horwitz filed an emergency motion on Wednesday, asking that the judge set aside her June 10 court order because it doesn’t specify what was violated.
The motion alleged that the court order violates Tennessee’s “shield law,” which “protects reporters from being compelled to reveal any information – or the source of any information – procured for publication and broadcast.” The statute protects journalists’ sources and information, gathered for publication or broadcast, whether obtained confidentially or not, and whether published or not.
On Thursday, the judge denied the motion and determined that it was “premature,” according to an updated Tennessee Star story. Horwitz filed an emergency appeal with the Court of Appeals for Middle Tennessee, requesting the court provide a stay to the show case hearing.
Myles said that Leahy and his attorneys had to be in court next week to help her “ascertain the status and veracity of any alleged leak” of the documents.
The Tennessee Star reported that Leahy was ordered to appear in court following local television reporter Stacey Cameron calling the judge and asking if the Star or anyone else should be held “in contempt” due to reporting on the notes from Hale’s journal. Leahy told Just the News on Thursday that Cameron made a false claim to the judge about the documents, which he says he obtained legally.
Leahy Emergency Motion to Set Aside Show Cause Order.pdf
“She is compelling me to be present in court to explain why publication of certain documents does not constitute contempt of court,” Leahy told Just the News. “But she doesn’t cite what we violated.” Leahy is currently in a legal battle attempting to get Hale’s full journal from the Metro Nashville Police Department. The Star has written several articles about some of Hale’s writings, which resulted in extensive backlash.
“The Show Cause Order does not specify or otherwise identify ‘the Orders of this Court’ that it implies may have been violated,” the emergency filing reads. “The Show Cause Order does make clear, however, that it is concerned with the acts – specifically, ‘the publication of certain purported documents and information’ – that transpired outside the presence of the Court.”
In April, the FBI turned over writings from Hale to the court, including a manifesto, which are being read privately by the judge to determine whether there is reason to continue hiding them from the public. Three nine-year-old students and three adults were killed in the shooting spree.
Star News sued the FBI in May, claiming the bureau had violated the First Amendment by rejecting multiple Freedom of Information Act requests for the Covenant School shooter’s manifesto.
U.S. District Court Judge Aleta A. Trauger sided with the Tennessee Star in March in seeking the manifesto and other relevant written documents from Hale, who killed three students and three faculty members in the Nashville school shooting.”

Just The News: “(The Center Square) — A federal judge issued an injunction on Thursday that put a temporary hold on new Title IX rules issued by the Biden administration.
U.S. District Court Judge Terry Doughty issued the order in a lawsuit brought by the states of Louisiana, Mississippi, Montana and Idaho. The injunction keeps the final rules from going into effect pending a review by the U.S. District Court of the Western District of Louisiana.
The new rules finalized by the Department of Education and which are supposed to go into effect Aug. 1 expand the definition of sex discrimination to include gender identity and pregnancy, but the agency didn’t issue any rules relating to transgender athletes. Among the changes include a prohibition on single-sex bathroom and locker rooms and requirements that a school use pronouns based on a student’s preferred gender identity.
Doughty said in the order that the new rule violated the free speech and free exercise clauses of the First Amendment along with the spending clause and “is arbitrary and capricious.”
The judge also said in his ruling that for one of these injunctions to be issued, the plaintiffs must show a substantial chance of success on the merits of their case, a threat of irreparable harm that must outweigh any that would result if the injunction weren’t issued and it must be in the public interest. Doughty said the plaintiffs did so successfully.
Doughty also said that the plaintiffs were able to prove that the harassment standard created by the rule is contrary to Title IX and he said they “made compelling arguments for how it can violate the free speech right of the First Amendment.”
Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill, who brought the Title IX lawsuit, praised the ruling. “This a victory for women and girls,” Murrill said in a statement. “When Joe Biden forced his illegal and radical gender ideology on America, Louisiana said NO! Along with Idaho, Mississippi, and Montana, states are fighting back in defense of the law, the safety and prosperity of women and girls, and basic American values.”
Title IX prohibits educational institutions that receive federal funds from discriminating on the basis of sex in both educational programs and activities. Federal courts have already acted against the Biden administration’s rules.
On Tuesday, U.S. District Court Judge Reed O’Connor granted the state’s motion for summary judgement in a case over a mandate issued by two federal agencies before the administration amended Title IX to redefine biological sex to include “sexual orientation” and “gender identity.”
He also denied the Biden administration’s request to dismiss and vacated the guidance nationwide and issued a permanent injunction against its enforcement in Texas.”

The NAACP and the students argue that the school board’s move violates the plaintiffs’ First and 14th Amendments rights in addition to Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Equal Educational Opportunities Act. The complaint was filed on Tuesday.
“When Black students are compelled to attend schools that glorify the leaders and ideals of the Confederacy, they are subject to a racially discriminatory educational environment, which has significant psychological, academic, and social effects,” the complaint said.
“When students are required to identify as members of student bodies or teams named to honor Confederate leaders in order to participate in school activities, they are required against their will to endorse the violent defense of slavery pursued by the Confederacy and the symbolism that these images have in the modern White supremacist movement,” it also said.”

https://apnews.com/article/trump-capitol-republicans-jan-6-ef6a2dc69ee8cd3e11479d095f2bfd1d
Our Take: I think the author of this AP News article is trying to be snarky, but it’s landing as schizophrenic paranoia. Maybe it just is what it is. In the lead sentence, the reporter talks about Trump’s ‘triumphant return to Capitol Hill,’ then, in the same sentence, references the reported meetings as, ‘his first since sending the mob to “fight like hell” ahead of the Jan.6, 2021 attack,.’
Several Republicans are quoted as supporting Trump — Speaker Johnson, Mitch McConnell, John Thune. Only two Democrats appear in the article, and only one of them is a legislator and relevant to the story — Pete Aguilar. The second Democrat quoted is disgraced former police offer Harry Dunn, a Democrat political influencer, not dissimilar to Harry Sisson.
Dunn is there because this is political theater, not news. Consider this line: ‘He has successfully purged the GOP of critics, silenced most skeptics and enticed once-critical lawmakers aboard his MAGA-fueled campaign.’
President Trump didn’t purge the GOP of critics — voters did. Think Liz Cheney or Adam Kinzinger. The voters’ responses to the actions of ‘critics’ is why those critics are no longer doing the People’s work. Does AP News believe voters should choose their representatives?
On her second point, the reporter claims Trump has ‘silenced most skeptics,’ which is a bold assertion with no foundation. Who has been silenced by 45? Outlets like AP won’t shut up about how Trump is going to do all the horrible things (that Joe Biden is currently doing) if elected. Who was silenced?
Then there’s the ‘MAGA-fueled campaign.’ A campaign fueled by making America great again is a winning campaign. Opposing making America great again is a bad look. It’s so simple, and yet they keep falling into it.
As we discussed earlier this week, following the Europarl news from Sunday, populism is rising because the globalists overplayed their hand and abused their power. That fact has never been more apparent, and the AP is living in denial that the people’s rebuke of their handlers is anything other than democracy in action.
My favorite part of this article is this gaslighting panic: ‘As democracies around the world come under threat from a far-rightward shift, experts warn that the U.S. system, once seemingly immune from authoritarian impulses, is at risk of populist and extremist forces like those that Trump inspired to sack the Capitol.’
With the author’s hysteria reaching crescendo, she employs anonymous experts through which she claims that US systems were once ‘immune from authoritarian impulses’ before Trump. It’s just Schizophrenic paranoia, shielding for authoritarians who gave into their worst impulses a long time ago.
Now consider that this article isn’t labeled as ‘Opinion,’ but rather reporting under the ‘Politics’ category, and a couple paragraphs down we find this: ‘The Associated Press is the most trusted source of information on election night, with a history of accuracy dating to 1848.’
What a time to be alive. MAGA-fueled accountability for the win. — Ashe in America

Regime media – including ConInc media – would have to make pro-tax arguments that would inevitably lead to questions about the legality and constitutionality of the federal income tax in the first place.
How will people telling you to pay taxes look then? Like cuckolds. What would it mean to the average American to understand the government has just been robbing him for his entire life?

Pentagon Wants to Feed Troops ‘Experimental’ Lab-Grown Meat to ‘Reduce CO2 Footprint’

A Pentagon-funded company is seeking proposals to feed America’s soldiers lab-grown meat in a bid to “reduce the CO2 footprint” at Defense Department outposts.
BioMADE, a public-private company that has received more than $500 million in funding from the Defense Department, announced earlier this month that it is seeking proposals to develop “innovations in food production that reduce the CO2 footprint of food production at … DoD operational environments,” according to an online announcement.
Critics of the DoD’s partnership with BioMADE say that U.S. troops should not be used as test subjects for lab-grown meat products that are still in their experimental phase.

Just The News: “Hunter Biden is dropping a lawsuit against former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani that accused him of manipulating data found on the first son’s laptop. Hunter’s lawyer, Abbe Lowell, filed the stipulation for dismissing the case Thursday in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York.
Lowell requested the lawsuit be dismissed “without prejudice, with each party bearing its own attorneys’ fees, costs, and expenses,” according to the New York Post. Documents show attorneys from the various parties have agreed to the terms.
The lawsuit originally brought by Hunter Biden claimed that Giuliani and attorney Robert Costello violated the federal Computer Fraud and Abuse Act and manipulated data on his infamous “laptop from hell.” The lawsuit sought $75,000 in damages and payment for attorneys’ fees.
“This dismissal – along with Hunter Biden’s conviction based on evidence taken from the laptop – is a vindication for Mr. Giuliani and Mr. Costello as well as all of the media outlets who broke the laptop story in 2020 and suffered orchestrated censorship by social media, the leftist mainstream media, and others who engaged in election interference,” Giuliani’s attorney, Joe Sibley, told The Post in a statement.”

Don’t forget to bring your kids and pregnant friends! Oh, and you can’t see The Killers in concert, eat anywhere in New York City, or feed your family if you don’t. But totally up to you! We certainly can’t force you or anything.If you failed the test, you may want to start studying up. A quick scan of recent corporate controlled media headlines features breathless announcements of new or forthcoming vaccines for malaria, monkeypox, dengue, cancer, norovirus, Epstein-Barr, RSV, and any strain of a virus. You know what’s funny? Five years ago, if I’d gone in for a routine physical and my doctor enthusiastically recommended some new “safe and effective” cancer vaccine, I shudder to admit I’d probably have rolled up my sleeve on the spot. I wouldn’t have asked about safety studies or requested a review of the package insert—the one I didn’t know existed because it’s not like I spend my days opening vaccine vials or anything—or even wondered aloud about my personal risk factors or the drug’s potential side-effects. Cancer, bad. Vaccines, good. Do I get a lollipop with that?
As much as I want to go back in time and punch my naïve former self in the face, if I was pressed to name the pandemic’s most magnificent accidental silver lining, it’s that it lifted that veil of willful ignorance and blind obedience—and there’s no putting that thing back. Ever.
Memo to our public health agencies and the physicians who shill for them: You had my trust! You could have slowly, subtly, methodically recommended this string of bewitching injectables or that bowl of Bill Gates’s latest magical vaccine-infused lettuce blend and in all likelihood, I’d have bought in without a lot of pushback. Why wouldn’t I? I had no reason not to trust you (that I was aware of then; now I know better, thanks to you!). But you got greedy. You got sloppy. You played poker at the chess table, and instead of displaying the famous combination of strategy and patience that rewards skilled chess players with an inevitable checkmate, you rolled the dice for a chance to hit the mega-jackpot. And do you know what happened? You lost. Big time.
Even though the word “pandemic” was far from a vocabulary staple prior to 2020, its clawed its way into the vernacular and shows no sign of retreat. From cholera to cancer, bird flu to Disease X, our puppet masters are promising another pandemic sooner than later. Their answer, of course, will be quickly developed, entirely unstudied, scientifically unsubstantiated (yet somehow guaranteed to be christened safe-and-effective) vaccines. I don’t know about you, but I’d sell my house and live in a yurt in the woods before I’d agree to receive another inoculation against anything as long as I live.”

About Idaho, I can’t follow your threads very far, because they start becoming vertically spaced, then disappear on my cell phone, although I enjoy reading them, until I can’t.

Also, I just read on Google that Bill Gates has invested in a nuclear power plant in Kemmerer, Wyoming, an old coal mining town. That’s about 120 miles southeast of Jerome, Idaho, in the Snake River Plain, the nearest largish city to Kemmerer. Kemmerer i a little south of Jackson Hole, Wyoming, the ski resort.
There are a lot of rich, multi-national investors in the northern border states. Now, the Canadian military is joining the US military to spy on the Russian ships visiting Cuba. Putin says the ships are only practicing in the Atlantic Ocean.

I agree. Bill Gates concerns me more than Russia does, at the moment. The media adds to the fear of Russians. The explosion of the USS Maine in Cuba, I believe, was later found to be an explosion in the hull that was carrying coal for steam. But Randolph Hearst of the New York news made headlines, blaming Spanish forces, which is how T. Rooosevelt and his Rough Riders stormed San Juan Hill in Cuba and won that war, in late 1890s. Then McKinley was assassinated by an “anarchist”, and TR became president around 1900.

Excerpts:
In an explosive revelation, Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ) disclosed a meticulously detailed timeline during a House Judiciary Committee hearing on Thursday, casting a glaring spotlight on a concerted effort between the Biden regime and key prosecutors to undermine former President Donald Trump.
The committee convened on Thursday to dissect the political motivations behind Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s legal actions against Trump.
Biggs suggests that the sequence of events—Biden’s controversial remarks, Trump’s presidential bid announcement, Colangelo’s resignation and subsequent move to Bragg’s office, Smith’s appointment, and Wade’s meetings with White House lawyers—indicate a coordinated effort to prevent Trump from becoming President again.

WOW 🚨 Idaho Farmland Water Shutoff “Coincidence”
Hidden in the Ukraine Bill was funding for cobalt mining in America. Over 200 politicians invested in this company mining cobalt. The Department of Defense gave that company $15 million out of the Ukraine bill to mine in IDAHO
What are the odds?!?
“So y’all might wanna put your helmets on for this one, seatbelt something. This is crazy stuff people. So just so I don’t get this video doesn’t get deleted. This is for entertainment purposes only. Everybody should do your own homework. I’ll tell you where to go. But I made a video a couple of days ago about the water issue in Idaho. Some people had reached out and said, Hey, do you know what’s going on? I didn’t know anything about it. I just made the video to see if anybody else knew. And holy
cow.
Thank you all the warriors out there that, you know, there’s a lot of people that have been doing some homework on this for a long time. And so I’ve shared some stuff, I’ve reposted some stuff. There’s a ton of information out there, but this is crazy people.
So the DOD, Department of Defense, you Google this, DOD Invest in Cobalt, just Google that, and this will come up.
Part of the, you know why all the politicians want to fund Ukraine, right? Or not, you know, many reasons, but. So one of the, in the last Ukraine budget, or whatever you call it, there was some money in there for cobalt mining in America.
There’s over 200 politicians or invested in Jervis on the stock market. 200 politicians have invested in that company.
The Department of Defense gave Jervis $15 million out of the Ukraine bill to do this mine in Idaho.
And that’s not the only one. It’s just happening all over the country for cobalt and lithium mining here in America. But it’s hidden in an Ukraine bill.
All the politicians or 200 of the politicians are all stockholders in the company that’s getting the contracts. It’s just the biggest damn scam you ever seen, man. I just, you know, they wonder why.
They wonder why the conspiracy theories get started. And it’s because they just don’t tell the truth.
— I think it was 6.5 million chickens were put to death in Idaho real recent because of the bird flu. And it just seems like if there’s a land grab, if the plan is, hey, we wanna take a million acres of Idaho and dig a big giant crater in the ground and mine lithium…
Just put that on the table for the local state level people to vote on. You know, they just don’t think we can handle the truth. They create the conspiracy theories and then they criticize you for believing in conspiracy theories and they censor stuff on these social media sites because they say it’s misinformation.
We wouldn’t go digging for this stuff if they just tell the truth. It’s mind boggling to me. But look up, just type in Google, DOD investing cobalt and you’ll see what’s going on in Idaho and the companies behind it.
And then Google that company on who the investors are. Over 200 of them are politicians. Crazy, crazy, crazy world. I don’t know how, but we gotta turn this thing on its head somehow. And we gotta know what we’re dealing with. Can’t fix anything if you don’t know what’s going on, right?“

EXCERPT: “The Stanford Internet Observatory, the co-leader in a Department of Homeland Security-conceived private consortium to flag and mass-report alleged misinformation for removal in the 2020 and 2022 election cycles, will reportedly not “conduct research into the 2024 election or other elections in the future” as its controversial federally tinged work became embroiled in lawsuits and congressional subpoenas.
“Silicon Valley and democracy” newsletter Platformer reports the group is “winding down,” crediting unnamed sources: founding director Alex Stamos left in November, research director Renee DiResta, whom Stamos said has “worked for the CIA,” left last week “after her contract was not renewed,” another staffer’s contract expired and others were told “look for jobs elsewhere.”
(Video – 2021 CyberSecurity Summit)
Sen. Mark Warner, D-Va., put renewed and likely unwanted attention on the feds’ relationship with the Election Integrity Partnership last month by claiming the public and private sectors were communicating again about removing purported election misinformation, even as the Supreme Court decides whether the federal role in private censorship is constitutional.
EIP had a 35% success rate in the 2020 election cycle, by its own tracking, in convincing tech platforms to suppress narratives, overwhelmingly by conservatives, through labeling, removal and soft-blocking, meaning users had to reject a warning to see them. Just the News itself was targeted in the system.
Stanford disputed the organization was shutting down, telling Platformer the “important work of SIO continues under new leadership, including its critical work on child safety and other online harms, its publication of the Journal of Online Trust and Safety, the Trust and Safety Research Conference, and the Trust and Safety Teaching Consortium.” …..

I have a gut feeling that this decrease in popularity is due to more people being better informed and alternate news sources exposing the organization’s radical views.
“SPLC’s decision has a catastrophic impact on the organization’s work in support of immigrants seeking justice and its mission to dismantle white supremacy, strengthen intersectional movements and advance human rights through support of educators,” the SPLC union spokesperson said. “CEO and President Margaret Huang announced that the cuts would allow greater ‘focus’ on racial justice, but failed to explain how eliminating immigrant justice work and anti-racist education work served that goal.”

the chicago teacher’s union acting like a political party
FTA
The CTU will push the city to include initiatives like electric school buses, green jobs training programs for students and reducing emissions from buildings with solar panels and other retrofits, among other initiatives, according to E&E News. Those demands are being made while 2023 testing data shows that about 75% of Chicago’s public school students were unable to read at grade level and 83% of students were behind grade level proficiency in math, according to the Illinois Policy Institute
The union is also demanding the removal of all lead pipes in school buildings, replacement of windows that do not open and the creation of a “climate champion” role at each school to organize climate-related initiatives and activities, according to E&E News. CTU is also proposing to have solar panels and heat pumps installed in school buildings, as well as to create “heating and cooling centers” for communal use when temperatures are either very hot or very cold.

The union’s climate wishlist could cost hundreds of millions of dollars if granted in full, according to E&E News.
CTU could be well-positioned to land a favorable contract because it provided millions of dollars to Democratic Mayor Brandon Johnson’s mayoral campaign, and Johnson himself is a former organizer for the union, E&E News reported. The union also pushed to keep students out of school in favor of learning online during the pandemic, and Chicago’s school system has the worst chronic absenteeism among America’s largest districts, according to the Illinois Policy Institute.

“Disqualified Lia Thomas Asks If He Can Still Just Hang Out Naked In The Olympic Women’s Locker Rooms”
SPORTS · Jun 13, 2024 · BabylonBee.com
STATE COLLEGE, PA — After the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) made a shocking ruling on Thursday that Lia Thomas, a man, would not be allowed to compete on the U.S. women’s Olympic team, Thomas requested further clarification on whether he might be allowed to still just hang out naked in the women’s locker room on occasion or something like that.
“That’s fine if I can’t compete, but can I, maybe, I dunno, just hang out naked in the women’s locker room?” said Thomas to the committee, according to sources. “I can, you know, help with the swimming gear and towels and whatnot. And I’d be naked while I’m doing it. No big deal.”
“That shouldn’t be too much to ask for a brave trans pioneer like me.”
Thomas’s request to lurk in the locker room invoked the spirit of Pride Month, saying all he wants is the right to creep out women while at the same time indulging in his own gross fetish even if he won’t be allowed to humiliate those women in competitive sports.
At publishing time, Planet Fitness and 24 Hour Fitness had both reached out to tell him he’s welcome to hang out naked in their women’s locker rooms any time.

“‘Inside Out 2’ Introduces New Emotion ‘White Guilt’”
ENTERTAINMENT · Jun 14, 2024 · BabylonBee.com
U.S. — Disney and Pixar were eager to simultaneously turn around the trend of lackluster box office returns and educate audiences on the dangers of deep-seated racial prejudice this weekend, with Inside Out 2 set to introduce the new emotion “White Guilt.”
“You know that book White Fragility? We turned that entire concept into a large, oafish character named ‘White Guilt,’” Pixar Producer James Holt told the press. “He runs around reminding Riley to support reparations, march in Black Lives Matter events, and talks constantly about how whites are evil colonist slave-holding racists. Kids will love him!”
Pixar announced Ray Romano will voice the new “lovable loser” character and shared a few glimpses at lines from the script including; “We whites are a scourge on society and it’s up to us to dismantle systems of inherited racism, Riley,” and “As a white girl, you need to recognize your privilege and know that every day you breathe the hatred of your ancestors. Do better and educate yourself.”
“We hope this new character will better educate white people about the oppression they perpetuate just by being white,” Holt explained. “Kids are gonna love it. And if they don’t, they’re racist little white supremacist scum. We love our audience!”
At publishing time, rumors indicated Pixar was considering adding a “You Were Born In The Wrong Body” emotion character for a potential Inside Out 3 to teach Riley how she isn’t really a girl and needs puberty blockers to feel normal.
