Grand Canyon University, the world's largest Christian college, is fighting back after Education Secretary Miguel Cardona vowed to target the school.

"[The Education Department's] conduct related to GCU goes well beyond normal regulatory activity. It epitomizes the weaponization of federal agencies' power against a private Christian university," the school said. "

This is a great read and shows exactly how the radical Marxist left is behind the anti-semitism and pro-Ielqmic terrorist movements currently operating on the west.  It is the same people who were in BLM and Antifa and who are still trying to bring about a communist revolution.

I don't like entertainers, but this is worth posting. Cherie Currie who was the lead vocalist of the Runaways had this to say about the democRATS.

"It used to be PUNK, R&R to vote Democrat," Currie wrote. "I fell for it. But when your party demands you live in fear, squaller, beyond your means by just buying groceries, gasoline, disrespecting our veterans, our police, our elderly, supporting CRIMINALS, chaos, riots, Hamas, FAILING Israel, demeaning us at every turn! HURTING our CHILDREN! Wasting OUR MONEY. Ineptitude with every policy! Lies and more lies. NO MORE! The Democrat Party can KISS MY A$. They don't give a damn. That's true. Voting Dem used to be cool. But now, it just makes you a FOOL."

Just insanity.  The left is trying to destroy the economy and the result is stagflation like we are experiencing now.  They never learn.

The Liberal Speakerof the House just kicked Pierre Poilievre out of the House of Commons. For calling Justin's drug policy wacko...

Was Pierre wrong?

Legalizing open use of hard drugs like crack, meth, and illegal fentanyl is wacko.
6 people dying from overdoses every day is wacko.
Kids playing next to used syringes is wacko.

These are wacko policies from a wacko prime minister.

Acting Justice Juan Merchan held Donald Trump in contempt, claiming he violated his gag order by sharing posts on social media, according to live updates from the courtroom. Trump faces fines of $1,000 for each violation.

democRAT Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez from Washington stated in a recent interview with NPR that there is an "urgency" for the Biden administration to revive Trump-era border policies.

Gluesenkamp Perez and a group of other "self-described centrist Democrats" are demanding that the federal government do more to tackle the crisis at the southern border, the news outlet reported.

A pretty good discussion on the radical left.  I do believe they are correct that the current encampments/occupations for Gaza retards are essentially a leadership training and membership drive by the communists for further violent actions closer to the election.

Tulso Gabbard said Hillary Clinton accused her of being a Putin stooge.  She also said, "we have seen now consistently throughout his entire administration over these last three and a half years, consistently pushing policies that undermine our freedom, that make our country less safe and less secure, and that is very quickly unraveling and destroying the foundational, fundamental elements of our country and what it means to be an American."

"That has to be intentional."

Job growth slowed and unemployment ticked higher last month, marking a break from a string of data showing surprising strength in the labor market.

U.S. employers added a seasonally adjusted 175,00 jobs in April, the Labor Department reported on Friday. That was far less than in March, when gains exceeded 300,000, and also below what economists had expected. The unemployment rate ticked up to 3.9% from March's 3.8%.

Wages also rose less than anticipated, increasing 3.9% from a year earlier after rising 4.1% in March.

Friday's report is sure to stir immediate debate among economists and investors about whether the labor market is merely cooling in a welcome fashion or starting to show more serious strains under the pressure of higher interest rates.
