Albemarle County Public Schools (ACPS), a district in a far-left county in Virginia, encourages students to make a commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) ideology as a “core competency,” and has an “equity” grading system that guarantees at least 50 percent on incomplete assignments. According to documents obtained by Defending Education, the county, home to the Charlottesville metro area and Thomas Jefferson’s Monticello, is fully steeped in “anti-racism” — an ideology used in curriculums to browbeats white students into denying their self-worth as human beings based on race. The majority of ACPS students are white. “Albemarle Schools don’t only…

What does the term “independent journalism” mean? To left-wing elites, it implies brave anti-corporate progressivism. For example, Monday’s New York Times ran film critic Alissa Wilkinson on “A Profile and a Celebration of Independent Journalism.” The online headline named the admired journalist in question: “In This Film About Amy Goodman, Independent Journalism Is the Real Star.” Wilkinson gushed over the politically radical Goodman and her radio program Democracy Now!, hosted on the far-left Pacifica Network. Yet the paper has spent years ignoring or mocking right-leaning “citizen journalists.” They’re not “independent.” They’re apparently capitalist lackeys. Nowhere in this brief tribute does Wilkinson…

For CNN This Morning guest host Erica Hill, the Trump administration’s argument with Pope Leo over the Iran War provided her an opportunity to hype the idea that true religion is liberal and the “moral courage” the country needs. To help her make that point, Hill brought on Episcopal Bishop Mariann Budde—best known for turning the Inaugural Prayer Service into Liberal Culture War Hour—and hyped Sen. Raphael Warnock suggesting that pleas that Leo not confuse his political opinions with God’s are “how fascists talk.” Hill wondered, “Could this actually be helping in this moment to elevate the pope’s message?
