Ban on Worship and Home Bible Studies Faces Legal Challenge - Liberty Counsel
Liberty Counsel Founder and Chairman Mat Staver said, “Governor Gavin Newsom must have a different Constitution than the one ratified by the states. While Gov. Newsom encourages tens of thousands of people to gather for mass protests, he bans all in-person worship and home Bible studies and fellowship. Such repression is well-known in despotic governments, and it is shocking that even home fellowship is banned in America. This outrage will not stand!”

Students demand firing of black dean because she mixed up black students’ names | The College Fix
A petition to the Board of Trustees, dated June 14 but only brought to light Tuesday by The Claremont Independent, cited only two students whose names Johnson confused, however:
- ‘Implying they lack individuality’
...But what if the person mixing up names is herself black?
Student activists at Scripps College, a women-only member of the Claremont Consortium, are demanding the firing of Dean of Students Charlotte Johnson because she has a “pattern” of confusing black students for each other.A petition to the Board of Trustees, dated June 14 but only brought to light Tuesday by The Claremont Independent, cited only two students whose names Johnson confused, however:Dean Johnson has demonstrated unprofessionalism and disrespect through a pattern of calling Black students by the names of other Black students. For students who already experience acute systemic oppression within the institution it is especially painful to experience disrespect as an individual on an interpersonal level. Further, this is directly tied to race and is a very specific experience for Black people, implying they lack individuality. To do this says that their names are not worth remembering, that they are not worth remembering.
Johnson “consistently” called one black student by the name of another “who was three years older and several shades lighter,” and misidentified another student “over the past three years … despite being corrected everytime.”
The dean never apologized, the student alleged...Read all.

An FBI memo declassified last week shows that the Steele dossier’s allegations about former Trump campaign aide Carter Page came from two sources, one of whom was described as having a Russian spy handler, while the other was the source of an allegation in the dossier that the FBI flagged as possible Russian disinformation.
The FBI document shows that a contractor for Christopher Steele told investigators in January 2017 that two women — identified as Source 3 and Source 5 — provided the information about Page that ended up in the dossier.

‘Unprecedented’: Missouri Lawyer Says Political Posturing Is To Blame For St. Louis Couple’s Gun Seizure | The Daily Caller
‘Unprecedented’: Missouri Lawyer Says Political Posturing Is To Blame For St. Louis Couple’s Gun Seizure | The Daily Caller:
A Missouri attorney said political posturing is the reason that the St. Louis couple who went viral for defending their mansion with guns had their firearms seized with charges looming.
Attorney Kevin Jamison, author of the book Missouri Weapons and Self-Defense Law, said the case against Mark and Patricia McCloskey, the duo that has become well-known for warding off protesters with an M16A2-style rifle and handgun, is “weak to say the least.” Jamison suspects political bias to have played a role in the circuit attorney’s decision to seize the McCloskey guns and ponder charges, he told the Daily Caller News Foundation in an interview.
“The prosecutor has a lot of latitude in filing charges, but I think she’s here just to posture for her political base,” Jamison told the DCNF. “We have a legal system that is operated by people, and people bring their prejudices with them when they come to work.”

Biden: ‘Highways Have Been Built to Enforce Racial Segregation’ Using ‘Federal Dollars’ | CNSNews
"Federal funds are being used to build segregationist highways, and “federal policy” is to blame, former Vice President Joe Biden says on his presidential campaign website.
On a page titled “Biden-Sanders Unity Task Force Recommendations,” Biden outlines strategies he shares with Sen. Bernie Sanders (D-Vt.) for “pursuing environmental justice.”
Biden argues that “impacts of climate change are not evenly distributed in our society” – and that the inequity is by design, because highways are being built “to enforce racial segregation.”
What’s more, Biden says, federal funds are being used to build the segregationist highways as a matter of “federal policy”...

"This Activist’s Marxist Brainwashing Explains Why Antifa Has Terrorized Portland for 51 Nights.
These really are Heinlein’s Crazy Years — we just live in them.--Posted by“My name is Lilith Sinclair, I’m an Afro-Indigenous non-binary local organizer here in Portland, organizing for the abolition of not just the militarized police state but also the United States as we know it,” Sinclair declares in a brief video that went viral on Twitter. She also called Portland “stolen land,” proceeding to give Native Americans a “land acknowledgment.” By the way, she also identifies herself as a “sex worker,” i.e. a prostitute.
By “Afro-Indigenous,” Sinclair likely means she has black and Native American ancestors. By “non-binary,” she insists that she does not fall into the binary understanding of biological sex as male or female. In an interview with the Portland Mercury last month, Sinclair argued that Americans have to deconstruct the “colonized thought” that white oppressors supposedly foisted upon racial minorities.

Senate Panel Releases FBI Memo Related To Mystery Source For Steele Dossier | The Daily Caller:
The Senate Judiciary Committee on Friday released a newly declassified FBI memo from an interview with the primary source for Christopher Steele’s infamous dossier.
Republican South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham said that the memo “indicates that the reliability of the dossier was completely destroyed” after the interviews, which were conducted over the course of three days in January 2017.
“These documents, which I have long sought, tell a damning story for anyone who’s interested in trying to find the truth behind the corrupt nature of the FBI’s investigation into the Trump campaign in 2016 and beyond,” Graham said in a statement announcing the release of the document.

Whole Foods workers sue over Black Lives Matter masks - CNET:
"Whole Foods workers are accusing the grocery chain of discriminating against employees for wearing Black Lives Matter face masks at work.
In a proposed class action suit filed Monday, the workers allege that Amazon-owned Whole Foods sent employees home without pay or took other disciplinary actions against them for wearing face masks with BLM messages.

The allegations appear to clash with public support for BLM from Amazon and CEO Jeff Bezos.
Last month, Bezos posted his responses to racist customer emails, defending a Black Lives Matter banner that appeared on Amazon's site.
The e-commerce giant also pledged $10 million to organizations that help Black communities and strive for social justice."

It is the people who know better yet indulge the ignorant and by patting them on the head when they chant things like "All cops are bastards", "They are killing us out here" and "Defund the police" who deserve the greatest contempt."
"When you have radical "protesters" who are impervious to logic and facts, it should come as no surprise they are products of indoctrination factories, the stock and trade of which are urban legends and social justice fairy tales.

Human body parts named after “men, kings and gods” have been deemed irrelevant and misogynistic by some Australian doctors who no longer seek to salute the ideas of dead, male anatomists.
A specialist obstetrician in the state of Queensland, gynaecologist and anatomy lecturer, Dr Kristin Small, is urging her students to drop gender bias and what she calls irrelevant and misogynistic medical language.
