Gov. Youngkin announces investigation into 'alarming' violation of student rights at Loudon school district over trans policy | Blaze Media:
Republican Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin said he was directing an investigation into what he called an "alarming" violation of student rights at a Loudon County school over a transgender policy.
The family of a student at Stone Bridge High School said he was accused of sexual harassment after asking why there was a biological girl in the boys' locker room. The student is reportedly being investigated for allegedly violating Title IX, which forbids sex discrimination.
For higher education, “AI’s takeover [is] a full-blown existential crisis.”
“I think we are years — or months, probably — away from a world where nobody thinks using AI for homework is considered cheating.” - Steve McGuire@sfmcguire79
“It isn’t as if cheating is new.
But now, as one student put it, ‘the ceiling has been blown off.’
Who could resist a tool that makes every assignment easier with seemingly no consequences?”
- “Massive numbers of students are going to emerge from university with degrees, and into the workforce, who are essentially illiterate.”...
I’m a power engineer. The Iberian grid collapse makes me very afraid for Britain - Capell Aris
The Iberian blackout was complete within a few seconds.
- Last Monday, the Iberian grid suffered a disturbance in the south-west at 12:33.
- In 3.5 seconds this worsened and the interconnection to France disconnected.
- All renewable generation then went off-line...
At the time the grid was producing 28.4 GW of power, of which 79 per cent was solar and wind.
This was a problematic situation as solar and wind plants have another, not widely known, downside – one quite apart from their intermittency and expense.
- This is the fact that they do not supply any inertia to the grid...
A Newly Discovered Algorithm in Wisconsin Voter File is Indisputable Evidence of Criminal Election Fraud - American Thinker
...leaving no doubt someone has penetrated the WEC’s computer system to impose a criminal reordering on the voter files... - Jerome R. Corsi
Andrew Paquette, Ph.D., has discovered a never-before-seen algorithm in the Wisconsin Election Commission’s (WEC) voter registration database...
Paquette first observed that the WEC voter roll had an unusually high number of voter records that ended in zero.
Andrew Paquette, Ph.D., has discovered a never-before-seen algorithm in the Wisconsin Election Commission’s (WEC) voter registration database...
Paquette first observed that the WEC voter roll had an unusually high number of voter records that ended in zero.
Assuming that the WEC voter roll assigned voter ID numbers sequentially, without breaks or outside manipulation, records ending in 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 should appear with equal distribution.
As seen in Table 1, voter records ending in zero occurred in 30.6 percent of the voter records, while those ending in numbers 1 through 9 ended with each number appearing equally at 7.7 percent of the time.

Glenn Beck says if you live in THIS state, get out NOW | Blaze Media:
Even though Democrats lost the last election thanks to their progressive policies that alienated a huge portion of the country, that doesn’t mean they’re rethinking their radicalism.
A perfect example is the state of Washington, which just made a series of terrifying moves that caused Glenn Beck to say, “If you're living in Washington state, may I just say get the hell out now!”

The NYT bemoans that Trump has cut over $800 million in spending on LGBTQ health issues - American Thinker
The NYT bemoans that Trump has cut over $800 million in spending on LGBTQ health issues - American Thinker - Andrea Widburg 
It’s a dark time in New York’s Fire Island, San Francisco’s Castro Street, LA’s West Hollywood, or any of America’s other gay meccas.
That’s because, as the New York Times despairingly reports, the “Trump Administration Slashes Research Into L.G.B.T.Q. Health.”
But of course, this isn’t the tragedy the Times implies.
That’s because, as even the Times reveals, the LGBTQ+ research that is getting cut is almost entirely about making it possible to engage in dangerous behaviors with fewer consequences...
Hmmm.

Hmmm.
Why would the Trump administration do that?
- Could it be because those cancers and viruses result from sexual transmission?
- Or because we’re trying to medicalize the mental confusion of so-called “transgenderism.”
- In other words, the problems stem from reckless sexual behavior or culturally-promoted mental illness, not something inherent in identifying oneself as a member of the LGBTQ+ cohort...

Trump bans funding for controversial gain-of-function research | Blaze Media:
Trump's order ends federal funding for the research in countries like China, Iran, and others without sufficient oversight. It also orders U.S. agencies to identify such research that might imperil public safety and end federal funding for any programs.
"For decades, policies overseeing gain-of-function research on pathogens, toxins, and potential pathogens have lacked adequate enforcement, transparency, and top-down oversight," read a fact sheet from the administration. "Researchers have not acknowledged the legitimate potential for societal harms that this kind of research poses."
Insane: Over One-Third of Payments Issued by Treasury Cannot Be Tracked Back to Appropriation - Susie Moore
With so much going on these days — on multiple fronts — it's difficult to keep up with it all.
On Tuesday alone, there were multiple cabinet secretaries testifying before Congress, President Donald Trump made multiple appearances, commenting on everything from trade to FIFA, the Houthis cried "Uncle!", and India and Pakistan appear primed to bust out into an all-out war.
Watch this exchange between Rep. Ashley Hinson (R-IA) and Bessent:
On Tuesday alone, there were multiple cabinet secretaries testifying before Congress, President Donald Trump made multiple appearances, commenting on everything from trade to FIFA, the Houthis cried "Uncle!", and India and Pakistan appear primed to bust out into an all-out war.
- But looking back over some of the key moments, one was particularly jaw-dropping:
- According to Bessent, over one-third of the 1.5 billion payments issued by the Treasury Department in the past year cannot be traced back to a corresponding appropriation. That's 500 million payments (not dollars — individual disbursements) that cannot readily be matched for auditing or accountability purposes.

SHOCKING: American towns before and after globalism took our jobs | Blaze Media:
In 2001, China joined the World Trade Organization. The move was presented as progress, but it ultimately caused nationwide devastation.
“The year China joined the WTO, the U.S. imported $102 billion in goods from China. In 10 years that number has more than tripled to $365 billion,” says Glenn.
Our trade deficit with China suffered tremendously as well.
“[It] tripled over the same period to $273 billion. Last year the deficit was $295 billion — by far our largest trade deficit with any nation,” Glenn adds.
