Ariel Maguire gathered together with other moms in her rural area of the Big Island of Hawaii to create a child-centered educational solution for local families. It was late 2021 and the parents realized that nearly two years of pandemic policies had left their kids behind both academically and socially. There weren’t a lot of child care or early-education options nearby. “The closest place to send our kids would be a little over an hour drive each way and it has a huge waitlist,” Maguire told me in a recent podcast interview. “We were all struggling because we’d been stuck at home with our kids without community for a couple of years and needed to get back to ...

Those who seek tyrannical control over the masses would much rather deal with docile men than with ones willing to fight back. Understanding this provides a useful heuristic for understanding many modern social phenomena. From transgenderism to feminism to the promotion of sedentary lifestyles, a lot of the things being inculcated in people — particularly men — nowadays are specifically designed to neuter their ability to pose a viable challenge to the ambitions of Marxist globalists.

It clarifies that while the Bias Incident Team does “not tell people how to think or talk,” students can use the system to report incidents of racism, bias, sexism and microaggressions.

Two Democratic members of the Virginia state Legislature were recently caught on a hot mic expressing their disdain not only for Republican Governor Glenn Youngkin, but also for parents who insist on their rights to guide and direct the upbringing of their children.

It’s graduation season, and around my neighborhood, nestled as it is between two high schools, that means plenty of parties and festivities. Suddenly, all the kids who’ve been running the stop sign in front of my house and tossing empty Jim Beam bottles into nearby woods will assume the aspect of serious scholars—for an hour or so, at least. In truth, it’s also a season of reflection—but not just the kind extolled in graduation speeches. Certainly many will scan their four years of high school and ponder all the friendships, football games, or pandemic challenges—all good, but ultimately fading into irrelevance. Instead, it’s worth reflecting on something ...

Other side effects that outweigh the risk benefits are heavy vaginal bleeding, ovarian cysts, thyroid issues, decrease in sex hormones, ectopic pregnancy, migraines, and jaundice indicating liver or pancreatic failure. This OPill ‘medication’ is over-the-counter and will be available to young teens who have no concept of such issues as ‘side effects’. Despite the over-the-counter status, the pamphlet on OPill states that the patient must be made aware of the potential safety concerns… Meaning the FDA has once again revealed they are either grossly negligent and/or corrupt given there is NO patient in an OTC setting..

Lawsuit: It's Time To Start Paying Off Those Student Loans Again

Student loan payments have been paused since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in March 2020. However, in the three years since the pause began, the economic and legal justification for the continued moratorium has grown increasingly weak. Not only has the economy recovered in full force—leading to the lowest unemployment rate in over 50 years—but President Joe Biden himself has declared that "the pandemic is over." Yet, student loan payments are still paused—with the same, flimsy justification that the pandemic emergency rages on and student loan borrowers simply can't be expected to shoulder the unsurmountable burden of paying back their loans, especially ...

New York City has announced that the city's public elementary schools will now be forced to use a curriculum that actually teaches children how to read. On Tuesday, David C. Banks, the chancellor of the city's Department of Education, unveiled new rules governing reading instruction in New York City public schools, mandating that schools adopt one of three evidence- based reading programs. A school can only apply for an exception to the new rules if more than 85 percent of its student body is deemed "proficient" in reading—a distinction held by only around 20 schools in the entire city.

The Company They Keep

I recently heard an author note that “the furnishings of your mind is the company that you keep.” Judging from what’s filling the books and music of teens today, the company our children keep is truly frightening. Rap music, TikToks, and poorly-written books now furnish the inner rooms of our nation’s youngest minds. The average, untraveled preteen now has a window to a world of unbridled hell, with sexuality, depression and violence funneled through their phones. And thanks to adults with bad ideas, they also get a taste of it in books. Click for Full Text!

The teacher was removed and returned to the classroom in a matter of days, all without specific notification to parents. The meeting opened with ten Winding Waters K-8 ...
