Nurse sets up camera on deer carcass to catch wildlife and instead sees semi-nude people acting bizarrely - TheBlaze
36-year-old Corinea Stanhope told Kennedy News that she had been riding her horse on her property when she discovered the carcass of a deer. After she and her grandfather set up a camera and checked the video later, she was stunned to see what appeared to be two nearly naked figures hovering over the carcass.
“I don’t know what the heck was up with that,” said Stanhope. “It really freaked us out, it’s not something you see every day.”

NYC's Eric Adams Floats Idea For Locals to House Migrants
According to ABC 7, “the new, two-year partnership with New York Disaster Interfaith Services (NYDIS) will allow up to 50 houses of worship or faith-based spaces to offer overnight shelter for up to 19 single adult men at each location.”
This step was just the first of many that Adams hopes to implement in the city. In addition to calling on other houses of worship to sign up to be a part of the program, Adams also suggested that he’d love to see the same program implemented in private residences.
“It is my vision to take the next step to this — go to the faith-based locales, and then move to private residents. There are residents who are suffering right now because of economic challenges,” Adams said.

All schools must comply' – schools get heavy-handed against Pride backlash
Two provinces have now warned school boards that a failure to properly observe Pride could be illegal
As in-school Pride celebrations face growing signs of backlash across Canada, administrators are responding with stern reminders to school boards that these observations are not optional.
In B.C., Education Minister Rachna Singh opened Pride Month with a lengthy statement detailing how a failure to affirm and recognize students’ gender identity is a violation of the B.C. Human Rights Code.
“All schools must comply with the Human Rights Code and demonstrate they are creating safe, welcoming and inclusive environments for our students and staff,” wrote Singh, adding “when students can see themselves reflected in the world around them through stories of same-gender parents or math problems that use ‘they/them’ pronouns in a school environment, it sends a strong message of acceptance.”

Researchers Retract Over 300 COVID-Era Medical Papers For Scientific Errors, Ethical Concerns
At least 330 COVID-19-related medical papers have been retracted since the coronavirus pandemic began, oftentimes for scientific errors or ethical shortcomings, according to watchdog Retraction Watch.
Many of the papers were published in smaller, less influential publications, although a number were published in the highly-prestigious Lancet and other influential journals like Science. The topics covered in the papers ranged from alternative proposed COVID-19 treatments like ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine to false COVID-19 side effects.
One example of a U-turn from researchers occurred at the University of Manchester, where researchers two years ago asserted that hearing loss could be a result of COVID-19. Now, those researchers admit that was a faulty assumption.

A kid thinking that they need to hear "they/'them" pronouns is a manufactured condition, completely unnatural. All these adults who drive this stuff in schools, invoking "safety", are so evil. I don't see how or why they would escape hell.

'Sheer tyranny': Man arrested after trying to quote Bible to Pride-rally attendees — who applaud when he's put in handcuffs - TheBlaze
The outlet said Atkins was standing on the public sidewalk holding signs just after 10 a.m. when trouble began for him, too. Wear's video camera was on, and he captured the interaction between Atkins and the officer.
The officer — identified by the Patriot as Sgt. Bradley McClure — is standing in the street and speaking to Atkins, who is standing on the sidewalk.
“This is public property," Atkins tells the officer, who agrees it is public property but still insists that Atkins "let them have their event” and “respect it."

Church Sues After Gov Pulls Support For Anti-Hunger Program Over Its ‘Orthodox Religious Beliefs’ About Sex And Gender | The Daily Caller
A church in California that runs a food program for students filed a lawsuit Friday against the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the state’s Department of Social Services (CDSS) for revoking federal funding over the church’s beliefs on gender and sexuality.
The Church of Compassion in El Cajon, California, runs the Dayspring Learning Center, which receives $3,500-$4,500 in federal funding for a food program for its impoverished preschool students, according to the lawsuit. In December 2022, however, the center was suspended from USDA’s “Child and Adult Food Care Program,” claiming that it was not compliant with the “‘sexual orientation’ and ‘gender identity’ nondiscrimination provisions,” prompting the church to file the lawsuit June 2.

Charges dropped against man arrested after trying to quote Bible to Pride rally attendees; official reportedly says legal action may come against police - TheBlaze
Charges have been dropped against a Pennsylvania man who was arrested over the weekend after trying to quote the Bible to Pride rally attendees.
"After a review of the incident which took place on June 3, 2023, in the 800 block of Washington Street in the City of Reading, the District Attorney’s Office has withdrawn the charges of disorderly conduct filed against Damon Atkins," a Tuesday Facebook post from the Berks County District Attorney reads. "The charges were withdrawn after the District Attorney’s Office reviewed the videos of the incident along with applicable case law."
According to the Lancaster Patriot — which initially covered details of the arrest — an email from Berks County Commissioner Christian Leinbach said "from what I have seen thus far I believe this was an unlawful arrest and could open the City of Reading and their police department to legal action."

Junior high teacher in Canada berates Muslim students for boycotting Pride events: 'If you don't think that should be the law, you can't be Canadian' - TheBlaze
During the two-minute clip, which was reportedly recorded and shared by a student, the teacher also discussed the differences between the laws and values in Canada and the laws and values in other countries. She asserted that all Canadians "believe in freedom" and "believe that people can marry whomever they want." Canada officially legalized so-called same-sex marriage in 2005.
She also seemed to presume that such laws grant Canada better moral standing in the world, and she drew a contrast between her home country and countries such as Uganda, which she incorrectly asserted will "literally ... execute" anyone suspected of being "gay." Under the new law, Ugandans caught engaging in sodomy can face up to life in prison, but the death penalty is restricted only to those who engage in "aggravated homosexuality" involving children, vulnerable adults, or those who are HIV-positive.

Just when I though Canada couldn't get any more evil. Now you have to be vaccinated to get organ transplants... In the 23rd year of the reign of the judges over the saints of God...
Supreme Court of Canada won't hear unvaccinated woman's case for organ donation
The Supreme Court of Canada will not hear the appeal of an Alberta woman who was unwilling to be vaccinated against COVID-19 in order to get a life-saving organ transplant.
Annette Lewis was diagnosed with a terminal disease in 2018 and was told she would not survive unless she received an organ transplant.
She was placed on a transplant wait list in 2020, but was informed a year later she would need to get the COVID-19 vaccine to receive the organ.
Lewis said taking the vaccine would offend her conscience and argued the requirement violated her Charter rights to life, conscience, liberty and security of the person.

China to place secret base in Cuba to spy on US: report | Just The News
China reportedly reached an agreement with Cuba to allow them to create an electronic eavesdropping facility on the Caribbean island, which is located about 100 miles south of Florida, as tensions between Beijing and Washington have been rising dramatically over the past several months.
The Cuban facility would allow Chinese intelligence officials to monitor U.S. ship traffic and to listen to electronic communications throughout the southeastern United States, according to U.S. officials with knowledge of highly classified intelligence, The Wall Street Journal reported Thursday.
China reached an agreement in principle to pay several billion dollars to the impoverished Marxist-Leninist nation of Cuba, officials familiar with the matter also said.

Deace: It’s time for my fellow conservatives to admit white privilege really is a thing - TheBlaze
I have finally been broken. White privilege is real, and it is spectacular.
What triggered this revelation was a story in the Federalist about Apple’s new “mixed reality” goggles. The headline says they are “designed to isolate and control you,” to which I instantly lamented that we pale-skins are already pretty damned good at that without the awkward headsets.
White privilege, if it is anything, is indeed our isolation from and faux control over reality. The reality of white privilege is a far cry from how progressive propagandists define it: as a perpetual silver spoon. Instead, it is an adult diaper that we would rather sit in as we watch the world go by, no matter how horrendous things get, because we simply don’t want to be bothered.
Brown-skinned Armenian men are currently putting khaki-pants-wearing white guys to shame in Glendale, California. There, when confronted with groomers in the classroom and masked Antifa dweebs in the streets, they forcefully showed them exactly how things are going to go if they continue to hunt their children in the name of the Rainbow Jihad — and it will not go well for the groomers.

Gavin Newsom: Constitutional Convention to Propose “28th Amendment” for Gun Control - The New American
California governor and potential 2024 Democratic presidential candidate Gavin Newsom announced the launch of his “Campaign for Democracy” to propose a 28th amendment to the U.S. Constitution for gun control by way of an Article V constitutional convention.
Amendments to the U.S. Constitution can be proposed in one of two ways. First, Congress, whenever two thirds of both Houses shall deem it necessary, shall propose amendments. This is how all 27 amendments to the Constitution, including the first ten (the Bill of Rights) were proposed. The second, never-before-used way is for two-thirds of the states (34 out of 50) to make application to Congress, who in turn will call a constitutional convention to propose amendments.

AI Spying Invades Dallas Schools With “Pre-Crime” Scheme - The New American
Surveillance and monitoring by Artificial Intelligence (AI) is invading government schools in Dallas as part of a pilot program supposedly aimed at keeping children “safe.” However, the Orwellian scheme, which will monitor and analyze the behavior of all students in one of the nation’s largest districts, is already fueling privacy concerns and other criticism among parents and civil-liberties advocates.
The “revolutionary technology” developed by the company Davista will be used to track student behavior and then alert authorities if it “deviates” from what the system considers to be normal “baseline” behavior. The system “empowers organizations to identify risk and take action before the projected risk becomes a consequential event or incident,” the Dallas Independent School District said.
In other words, even before any “event” or “incident,” the system will flag the students so authorities can “take action.” It was not immediately clear if these incidents would include sex acts, such as the 6-year-old girl in Texas who was forced to perform oral sex on a classmate while the teacher was in the class, or just behavior that might indicate a risk of violence.

Federal Court: Disarmament for Nonviolent Crimes Violates 2nd Amendment - The New American
The right to bear arms not only is an expression of the natural right to defend one’s life, liberty, and property, but it is a thread inextricably woven into the fabric of the Anglo-American conception of freedom. Additional protection against infringement by government on that fundamental right is protected by the Second Amendment of the U.S. Constitution.
In recent times, however, concerns have arisen over the constitutionality of disarming individuals based on nonviolent misdemeanor convictions. While the goal of eradicating violence is admirable — albeit illusory — it is essential to ensure that the federal court system respects the rights of individuals.
A story published by Reason recounts the story of a recent example of the denial of the right to keep and bear arms based on a nonviolent misdemeanor conviction. Here’s the background:

Trump Indictment Shows Deep State Trying To Rig Another Election
The same institutions that tormented former President Donald Trump for years with false accusations of collusion with Russia are making yet another brazen attempt to rig the next presidential election against the wishes of the American people.
Democrats and their cronies in the Department of Justice and the FBI have a history of election meddling to achieve their political goals. The raid on Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home and subsequent persecution of the former president by Special Counsel Jack Smith, sanctioned by the same corrupt players who have targeted Americans for wrongthink for years now, prove to be no exception.
There’s nothing the deep state isn’t willing to try to do to keep their biggest threat — Trump and his voters — from regaining power. Democrats and corporate media are so committed to this goal that they didn’t even try to keep their desire to change election outcomes a secret.

California Takes a Big Step Towards Legalizing Shoplifting – PJ Media
Ostensibly aimed at curbing workplace violence — a nice way of saying “criminals who come in to steal stuff and create the conditions for violence” — California Retailers Association chief Rachel Michelin described the bill in harsh terms. “It says no employee can approach someone who is shoplifting. So even if someone is trained on how to deter someone from doing that, now they’re not allowed to approach someone. So, what does that mean?”
“We are opening up the door to allow people to walk into stores, steal and walk out,” she said.
