On Friday, MSNBC’s The 11th hosted Mehdi Hasan and David Jolly, claiming that Republicans are returning to white nationalism with their education policies. However, the facts tell a different story.

The books that have been banned or challenged were due to explicit sexual content, not any political agenda. The controversy surrounding Michelangelo’s statue of David was because parents were uninformed about the nude art lesson and not for any other reason related to politics.

In reality, Republicans are only trying to maintain commonsense education policies which will help kids learn practical skills and knowledge which will support them later in life; rather than being taught woke ideology that is unnecessary and irrelevant in classrooms. They also want parents to have a say in their children’s educational decisions and to hold school districts accountable.

These policies have nothing to do with white nationalism or discrimination. It is simply about making sure our kids get the best education possible and that parents can have a voice in their children’s education. We should all support them in this venture. The Left has been attempting to frame the GOP as out-of-date, but in actuality, they are trying to ensure our kids get a good education. We should pay attention to the facts.

This is not about going back to a regressive past, but rather making sure our children get the best possible education and that parents can be involved in their decisions. We should all be on board with this. Let’s pay attention to the facts and support good educational policies. It is in the best interest of our kids’ future success. That’s what matters most.

The media’s biases against President Donald Trump are on full display once again. This time, it’s over the Manhattan District Attorney’s unsubstantiated claims that he could be charged with violating campaign finance laws.

The View on ABC wasted no time in jumping on the bandwagon, with Whoopi Goldberg sarcastically pointing out that “you said they are going to arrest you. They didn’t arrest you.”

It seems like every week there is another outlandish claim from the liberal media about President Trump that turns out to be false or lacking evidence.

In this case, it was the prediction of his arrest which never came to fruition. Unfortunately, this has become commonplace among news outlets such as The View which have an obvious bias against Trump and eagerly jump at any opportunity to criticize him even when there is little or no evidence to back up their claims.

This is indicative of a larger problem in our society where facts and truth take a backseat to sensationalism and emotion-driven narratives. Such behavior only serves to further divide us along ideological lines and create an environment of fear and mistrust instead of one based on facts and reason.

Unfortunately, this kind of biased reporting does have real-world consequences for those involved, as it can lead people to draw unwarranted conclusions about individuals without having all the information needed to make an informed decision. It also encourages people not to seek out alternative sources of news so they can get a more balanced view of events before forming opinions or taking action on them.

This kind of guessing is dangerous and foolish because it adds to the media’s story that Trump is guilty of something. The media should be more careful about what they say and not jump to conclusions without solid proof. If they don’t, they just add to the false idea that Trump is a criminal and should be jailed.

Some unwanted visitors have forced around 200 staff members and 420 prison inmates to be relocated from the Wellington Correctional Center in New South Wales. The unsanitary guests have infiltrated the entire building causing extensive damage.

What caused hundreds of hardened criminals to go running at the first sight of these new residents? A plague of mice that have ravaged the land of eastern Australia. Now, these inmates must take shelter elsewhere for the next 10 days while some major cleaning and repairs take place.

“The health, safety and wellbeing of staff and inmates is our No. 1 priority so it’s important for us to act now to carry out the vital remediation work,” Severin said.

The remediation work at the prison will include investigating ways to protect the facility from future mice plagues, which are a phenomenon largely unique to Australia.

Plagues usually happen when rain follows several years of drought. The current plague is the worst that many can remember in some areas.

Severin said the mice infestation was worst in prison buildings that weren’t built from concrete.

“The mice have got into … wall cavities, into roof spaces. They’re dead but then they start obviously decaying and then the next problem is mites,” Severin told Australian Broadcasting Corp.

Millions of mice have caused destruction in the grain-growing region of Australia’s most populated state for several months now, munching on crops and haystacks as well as nesting in homes, businesses, schools, hospitals, and prisons.

Generally, the most common complaint about this modern-day plague is the ever-present smell that comes with mice infestations, such as urine and decaying flesh. Some people even claim to have been bitten by mice while sleeping in their beds. Mouse carcasses and excrement in roof guttering are polluting farmers’ water systems and causing illness.

According to researchers, mice numbers will soon begin to plateau as the species always stops breeding during the Southern Hemisphere winter but numbers could explode again if the weather is right in the spring.

A disturbing video shows a suspected human trafficker going into a fit of rage after being taken into custody in Carrizo Springs, Texas.

Journalist Ali Bradley posted the footage to her Twitter account Monday, which shows a suspected human trafficker, handcuffed and sitting in a border patrol van in a Texas town 45 miles north of the border.

The video shows border patrol agents asking the suspect to get inside the van so they could shut the doors. The woman suddenly went into a bug-eyed rage.

Border Patrol agents asked the suspect several times to calm down but instead, she began to make loud animal-like growling noises. The agents continued to ask the woman to get back into the van to avoid getting hurt.

At one point an agent could be heard saying “we are going to have to tase you; you aren’t going to like that.”

The only intelligible words the suspect spoke were in response to the taser comment when she said in an evil growl “I don’t understand what you’re telling me,” as she was gripping the door of the van.

There was a record number of illegal migrants that crossed into the U.S. in 2021, with immigration officials recording more than 1.7 million apprehensions from September of 2020 through September of 2021, and the numbers continue to surge.

“Late-night regulars” such as David Letterman and Jimmy Fallon haven’t said a peep about the myriad goofs of the Biden administration, but late-night staple Larry the Cable Guy has been eager to do the dirty work.

On August 15, as the situation in Afghanistan continued to deteriorate, the veteran of Blue Collar Comedy made quickly shot back, “Our country’s leadership right now reminds me of a wal-mart on Black Friday when only 2 cashiers are working and no one can find a manager.”

Responding to a post about the U.N. ambassador’s comment that due to “a very strongly worded press statement” the Biden admin, “[expects] the Taliban to respect women’s rights” and ” be respectful of humanitarian law,” Larry cracked, “Nothing scares terrorists more than a strongly worded press statement.”

He also retweeted the video of Daily Wire contributor Matt Walsh shaming a Nashville public school board for requiring schoolchildren to wear face masks. The same video that landed Carrie Underwood in dire straits with the left after she “liked” it on Twitter.

Larry, whose real name is Daniel Lawrence Whitney, is certainly no hack, regardless of his political leanings. He enthusiastically lampoons the right side of the political divide, poking fun at Mike Pence, quipping, “Wait… I thought Pence was the first humanoid robot,” while recounting a narrative about the new robotic technology invented by Tesla CEO Elon Musk.

The recent allegations made by the Pentagon Inspector General are extremely concerning and require immediate attention from our nation’s leaders.

If true, these reports would mean that Joe Biden has betrayed our troops in Afghanistan and hidden deals with the Taliban that run counter to US interests. This revelation is particularly alarming given the chaos in Afghanistan since the withdrawal of US forces, including a takeover of power by the Taliban.

The implications of this report are far-reaching and have sparked outrage among lawmakers on both sides of the aisle. Republican Senator Tom Cotton has called for an investigation into the matter, stating that “if true, these allegations would be a shocking betrayal of our troops and our country.” We must ensure that those responsible for making such decisions face consequences if they have acted against American interests.

The White House has denied these claims, but many people remain skeptical given recent events in Afghanistan. It is essential that any side deals between Biden and the Taliban be revealed in order to protect our troops and prevent any similar actions occurring in future conflicts. The American public deserves transparency regarding what agreements have been made between their government and foreign entities like the Taliban.

It is also important to note that Biden’s approach to withdrawing from Afghanistan was misguided from its outset – he did not receive approval from Congress or military leaders before pulling out US forces under a timeline set by his predecessor. This decision has had disastrous consequences for Afghan civilians as well as US troops who now face increased risks due to instability caused by a weakened government and emboldened terrorists groups like al Qaeda and ISIS-Khorasan Province (ISKP).

Our nation must take steps to investigate these allegations immediately so we can hold those responsible accountable for their actions if necessary. We owe it to our brave men and women in uniform who served honorably in Afghanistan – they deserve better than having their commander-in-chief make secret deals behind closed doors with their enemy. The American people deserve nothing less than complete transparency when it comes to decisions made by their elected officials – anything less undermines trust in our democracy itself.

A Las Vegas woman shouting “let’s go Brandon” was arrested at McCarran International Airport over the weekend after refusing to wear a mask and causing a ruckus onboard an Allegiant Air flight, authorities said.

While at a security checkpoint in the airport another passenger confronted Katrina Alspaugh, 51, for not wearing a mask, according to a Las Vegas Metropolitan Police arrest report. It was alleged in the report that Alspaugh appeared as if she were about to punch the passenger that had approached her.

Even though Alspaugh was uncooperative with the officers, she was eventually released because the other passenger chose not to press charges.

Police were called again when an Allegiant Air employee removed Alspaugh from the flight after she caused a disturbance.

On the jet bridge, Alspaugh allegedly became belligerent with officers who told her to leave because she no longer had a ticket. When officers warned her she would be arrested, she “loudly began yelling ‘f—‘ and ‘Let’s go, Brandon,’” causing a further disturbance that ultimately resulted in her arrest.

Alspaugh faces a misdemeanor charge of public conduct at an airport.

Since January, there have been 5,240 unruly passenger reports, according to the Federal Aviation Administration and of those 3,798 have been mask-related incidents.

The agency has been proposing fines against passengers who assault, threaten, intimidate or interfere with airline crew members. Under the FAA’s Reauthorization Bill, the agency can propose up to $37,000 per violation as a repercussion.

Abortion activists stormed Pastor Joel Osteen’s church service on last weekend in Houston, Texas, by striping off their clothes and shouting “my body, my choice!”

“My body, my f—ing choice,” one activist with Rise Up 4 Abortion Rights is heard chanting in the church as she removed her dress, leaving on her underwear.

“Overturn Roe, hell no,” another activist yells as she removes her clothing. Three women joined in the protest by stripping down to their under garments.

MORE OF THIS 👏👏👏@tx4abortion disrupted @joelosteen earlier. EVERYONE who is applauding these young women needs to join this movement. YES YOU.

The activists are members of Rise Up 4 Abortion Rights, a group that has spoken out against the potential of the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade after a leaked draft judgment last month.

“I know it seems very outrageous to do it in a church in a private space,” one activist said of the protest. “However, the people that are enforcing these laws have no qualms coming up to women in private spaces such as doctors’ offices and medical clinics to harass them and call them murderers.”

The video of the protest has already gained thousands of views.

“Joel Osteen has an international audience and silence is violence when it comes to things like these,” the activist said. “We have a very unprecedented and very short amount of time to garner the attention that we need to get millions of people on the streets, millions of people doing actions like we were today.”

The Supreme Court released several decisions this week but there was no mention of the case that could overturn Roe.

A father from Georgia is facing criticism for disturbing videos that he posted to social media of him disciplining his teenage daughter.

Andrew Eugene Anderson, of Gwinnett County, can be seen in the video with his wife, as they confront the young teen and accuse her of stealing and running away.

At one point Anderson pins his daughter to the garage floor with his knees and locks her arms down so she can’t move. The teenage girl is screaming and begging her father to get off but all he says is, “I’ll go to jail about you,” and “You think you can handle yourself?”

The father defended himself on Atlanta’s WSB-TV saying that the videos might look bad but they “look a lot worse than what they really are.” He doesn’t regret his actions but he says he regrets putting the videos on social media.

You can find pieces of the video on Youtube and they are really quite sickening and scary. The father is berating and cussing at his child then physically pins her to the floor. I would be shocked if this man isn’t charged with child abuse.

“I don’t regret anything that was seen on video, but I do regret broadcasting the video to other people,” Anderson said. “We had our reasons for doing it because we wanted to kind of present information to her followers that are aiding her in giving her a place to stay because they are misinformed.”

Gwinnett County DA Danny Porter said that it’s too early to talk about pressing charges against the father but confirmed the incident is under investigation.

Anderson argues that he has “never” abused his daughter.

“I didn’t sit on her. I didn’t put my weight down on her at any time in the video. I strictly used my knees to kind of lock her arms in while I was holding her arms to the side,” he claimed. “I’ve disciplined my child before. I’ve never struck her in the face.”

The teen is currently staying with family members.
