FOIA Documents Reveal South Carolina Attorney General Reportedly FAILED to Prosecute Child Predators in Dorchester County — Nearly Every Case Dismissed or Dropped | The Gateway Pundit– www.thegatewaypundit.com Source Link Excerpt:
Rep. Nancy Mace (right) and South Carolina Attorney General Alan Wilson (left). Mace is demanding answers after FOIA documents revealed Wilson’s office failed to prosecute the majority of child exploitation cases in Dorchester County.
Documents obtained through the Freedom of Information Act reveal that South Carolina Attorney General Alan Wilson (R) has reportedly failed to prosecute the overwhelming majority of child pornography and sexual exploitation cases in Dorchester County.
According to internal records reviewed by Rep. Nancy Mace, from 2019 to 2022, the South Carolina Attorney General’s Office (SCAG), under Wilson’s leadership, handled 385 warrants for child pornography cases in Dorchester County, yet only 29 resulted in convictions.
That’s a conviction rate of just 7.5%, with 356 cases dismissed outright and not a single one taken to trial.
“We obtained FOIA documents showing South Carolina Attorney General Alan Wilson failed to prosecute p*dophiles in Dorchester County,” Rep. Nancy Mace wrote on X.
“Nearly every single child p*dophile case under Wilson’s watch in Dorchester County has been dismissed or dropped. WE WANT ANSWERS. NOW,” she added.
White people charged TWICE as much by woke Canadian gym as ‘BIPOC’ members | The Post Millennial– thepostmillennial.com Source Link Excerpt:
“Offering me a pity discount doesn’t solve whatever internal issues your owners are going through.”
Despite some left-wing thought pieces as of late declaring lifting and fitness a “right-wing” phenomenon, a gym in Canada is apparently looking to buck that trend, charging white gymgoers more than those of color.
R studios, a “yoga and Pilates studio” that the owner has billed as a place that was “created for the misfits, the non-conformists, [and] the everyday person,” announced that it would be charging CA$30 for a studio drop in, but that those who are “BIPOC” (black, indigenous, and people of color), would be able to drop in for a class for CA$15.
The discrimination was reported by Jeff Evely, a retired Canadian veteran who posted the charge rates on X. He wrote, “R studios in Nova Scotia charges double for white people, in violation of Sections 5(1) of the Nova Scotia Human Rights Act. The Nova Scotia Human Rights Commission disgracefully made our human rights a fraud during COVID.”
“CEO Joseph Fraser even made up his own extrajudicial provisions in order to avoid doing his job, in response to the complaints I personally submitted. (I’ll be in the NS Court of Appeals on Wednesday, seeking remedy.) Don’t let the NSHRC, Joseph Fraser, continue to defraud tax-payers of his big, fat salary, like every other senior bureaucrat in Nova Scotia. Like the rest of them, he’s not going to grow a spine anytime soon. Build a bandwagon for him to climb onto. Pressure works on cowards, like Joey. Get into Joey’s system, and beat this coward at his own game,” Evely added.
Newsom to Pull Funding from Schools Who Agree Not to Racially Discriminate Under Trump’s New Plan– www.westernjournal.com Source Link Excerpt:
Democratic California Gov. Gavin Newsom issued an ultimatum on Thursday to universities in the state, warning them that entering an agreement with the Trump administration will put them directly at odds with the governor.
After the White House proposed a deal to nine universities promising that compliance with the administration’s agenda could grant them priority treatment in funding decisions, Newsom issued a harsh warning to any “sell-out universities” that might accept it.
The offer in Trump’s “Compact for Academic Excellence in Higher Education” asks schools to stop racially discriminating in admissions and hiring decisions and commit to institutional neutrality and upholding free speech. Newsom said any school that complies with the federal government will “lose billions in state funding” instead.
“If any California University signs this radical agreement, they’ll lose billions in state funding — including Cal Grants — instantly,” Newsom said in a press release. “California will not bankroll schools that sell out their students, professors, researchers, and surrender academic freedom.”

Gavin Newsom threatens California universities who ‘bend to the will’ of Trump after latest demand– www.theblaze.com Source Link Excerpt:
Democratic California Gov. Gavin Newsom continued his feud against President Donald Trump by threatening the universities who complied with a request from the federal government.
The president issued a 10-point memo titled the “Compact for Academic Excellence in Higher Education” to nine universities and said any that agreed would receive preferential treatment for grants and other federal money.
‘California will not bankroll schools that sign away academic freedom.’
Newsom, who has presidential ambitions and has positioned California as a leading state to oppose Trump’s policies, issued a threat to universities that agreed to the compact.
“California universities that bend to the will of Donald Trump and sign this insane ‘compact’ will lose billions in state funding — IMMEDIATELY,” he wrote on social media Thursday.
“California will not bankroll schools that sign away academic freedom,” he added.

Texas A&M president to step down after turmoil over gender identity lesson– thehill.com Source Link Excerpt:
Texas A&M University’s president Mark Welsh will step down on Friday after turmoil ignited over a gender identity lesson, the Texas A&M University System said on Thursday.
Welsh, a former Air Force pilot and Joint Chiefs of Staff member, has received blowback from Republican lawmakers in recent days over a viral video where a student challenged a professor, Melissa McCoul, regarding gender content in a children’s literature course.
State Rep. Brian Harrison (R) shared the Sept. 8 video after it blew up online and caught the attention of other Texas legislators. McCoul was fired days later. Two more administrators were removed, but the changes did not satisfy some lawmakers, including Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick (R), who argued Welsh did not properly handle the situation.
“President Welsh is a man of honor who has led Texas A&M with selfless dedication,” said Chancellor Glenn Hegar said in a statement on Thursday. “We are grateful for his service and contributions. At the same time, we agree that now is the right moment to make a change and to position Texas A&M for continued excellence in the years ahead.”
The school’s Board of Regent spearhead a national search for a permanent president and appoints an interim president to “ensure a seamless transition.”
DEI retreat widens as Citigroup and PepsiCo roll back diversity policies – MSN Source Link Excerpt:
The retreat from corporate diversity programs widened this week as Citigroup (C) and PepsiCo (PEP) announced rollbacks of their DEI policies amid mounting scrutiny from a new administration in Washington, D.C.
At Citigroup, CEO Jane Fraser announced in a memo to company employees that the New York banking giant would no longer require new hires to be selected from a diverse set of job applicants.ion and talent management” team would now be known as “talent management and engagement.”
“It is important to note that we’re living in an environment where things are changing quickly,” Fraser said.
PepsiCo, the beverage giant, said in its own memo from CEO Ramon Laguarta that it will no longer have a DEI officer dedicated specifically to such issues, will “sunset” DEI workforce representation goals, and expand its supplier base.
The company, he added, will be announcing a new “inclusion for growth” strategy that is “in keeping with our company’s deep history of building an inclusive and respectful workplace culture.”
Schools Keep Trying to Push a Discredited Ideology– www.dailysignal.com Source Link Excerpt:
It’s back-to-school season, and some teachers have promised that the racist ideas from diversity, equity, and inclusion would not be in their classrooms this year. That’s the good news. The bad news is that many of these teachers and administrators are clearly telling whoppers.
In fact, K-12 schools and colleges around the country are disguising their DEI offices and their racial preferences.
Take Maryland, across the border from the nation’s capital and where many federal bureaucrats sleep and send their children to school.
State education officials said schools would comply with President Donald Trump’s executive orders calling on schools to reject DEI, citing the ways in which DEI programs violate civil rights laws.
Yet schools in Montgomery County, precisely where the swamp lives, still have resources on their website dedicated to DEI and critical race theory.
This wealthy school district, which receives $51.5 million in federal taxpayer spending for children in its lower-income areas, offers online classes for teachers on “How to be an anti-racist and anti-racist educator.” These sessions argue that everything around us is racist because not everyone receives the same rewards in life.
So it does not matter how hard you work in life—everyone should have the same amount. That is “equity,” the course materials say. The way equity’s champions rationalize this to themselves is to say that success is the result of “whiteness,” or systemic racism or some such, not the result of effort.
Report outlines DEI impact on US medical schools – The North State Journal Source Link Excerpt:
A new report issued by the James G. Martin Center outlines how diversity, equity and inclusion at medical schools in the United States compromises “academic standards, undermine merit-based admissions and hiring, and jeopardize public health outcomes.”
“Medical education must prioritize competence, not ideology,” Jenna A. Robinson, James G. Martin Center president said in a press release. “This report reveals the extent to which DEI policies are weakening the physician pipeline at a time when Americans need highly skilled, well-trained doctors.”
Authored by Martin Center Senior Fellow Jay Schalin, the report, “An End to Excellence: How Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Undermine Our Medical Schools,” looked at the 10 top-ranked American medical schools with respect to diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) programs and policies.
The schools in the report include Harvard Medical School, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, University of California at San Francisco School of Medicine, University of Michigan Medical School, Stanford University School of Medicine, University of Washington School of Medicine, Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania, Yale School of Medicine, David Geffen School of Medicine at the University of California at Los Angeles and Weill Cornell Medicine.
Schalin’s report examines how DEI policies, described as an aggressive extension of affirmative action, have eroded meritocracy in the nation’s medical schools by prioritizing race, gender and ideologies in areas like admissions, faculty hiring, curricula and student programs, potentially leading to less competent physicians and compromised health care.
High School Seniors Are Struggling To Read — It’s Time To Overhaul Our Education System– dailycaller.com Source Link Excerpt:
As a kid, I was a bit rambunctious. I talked a lot in class, acted up some, and didn’t always pay attention to the lesson. Halfway through 8th grade my English teacher, Mrs. Hunt, told me something profound.
“You know, your classmates really look up to you. They see you as a leader. I bet if you paid attention in class more, you could teach them a thing or two,” she said.
That conversation changed my life. After that, I took my education seriously and tried to be the leader Mrs. Hunt thought I could be. Years later, I completed my doctoral degree in higher education. That conversation with Mrs. Hunt was a defining moment that put me on the pathway to academic and financial success.
This is not a unique story in America. Right after college, I was a middle school math teacher in a low-income community. I learned firsthand what Mrs. Hunt and so many other great teachers already knew — any kid can learn, regardless of zip code, race, income, or background. They just need great teachers who care about their future and an education bureaucracy that gets out of the way.
But right now, bad education policy has put our education system in crisis.
The 2024 National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) — known as The Nation’s Report Card — paints a grim portrait of K-12 achievement nationwide. These results, the first comprehensive post-pandemic snapshot, reveal American students testing at historic lows across math, reading, and science. In 8th-grade science, only 31% scored proficient, marking the first decline since 2009. For 12th graders, only 22% are proficient in math — the lowest average score since 2005. Nearly two-thirds lack proficiency in reading.

New Jersey bills would force homeschooling families to teach DEI [Video] – AOL.com Source Link Excerpt:
A new bill in New Jersey could require homeschooling parents to teach their kids about controversial topics such as diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI).
The proposal, which is still under review, would force homeschooling parents to submit a curriculum in line with state learning standards. That includes subjects like gender identity, sexual orientation, DEI and climate studies.
It would also add more oversight to homeschooling, requiring families to submit a portfolio of student work every year to be evaluated by either a teacher or a licensed psychologist.
Some parents say they won’t comply even if the bill passes.
New Trump EO Bans Govt Purchases of AI Systems That Promote DEI, Woke Ideologies– legalinsurrection.com Source Link Excerpt:
President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Wednesday titled, “Preventing Woke AI in the Federal Government.” The order states, “Americans will require reliable outputs from Al, but when ideological biases or social agendas are built into Al models, they can distort the quality and accuracy of the output.”
The new directive prohibits the federal government from purchasing any AI systems that default to anti-white or extreme ideologies. The EO singles out “diversity, equity, and inclusion” (DEI) as one of the most “pervasive and destructive of these ideologies.”
The order cites one major AI model that “changed the race or sex of historical figures — including the Pope, the Founding Fathers, and Vikings — when prompted for images because it was trained to prioritize DEI requirements at the cost of accuracy.”
Another AI model refused to produce images celebrating the achievements of white people, even while complying with the same request for people of other races. In yet another case, an AI model asserted that a user should not “misgender” another person even if necessary to stop a nuclear apocalypse.
While the Federal Government should be hesitant to regulate the functionality of AI models in the private marketplace, in the context of Federal procurement, it has the obligation not to procure models that sacrifice truthfulness and accuracy to ideological agendas.
The Conversation is a news organization partially funded by public universities to the tune of $2 million annually while producing predominantly anti-Trump content.
None of the articles analyzed by The College Fix were explicitly supportive of Trump, and the language used in many instances was deemed emotionally charged and biased, raising concerns about the publication’s claim of neutrality.
Public universities, including Michigan State and West Virginia University, financially support The Conversation, but inquiries to these institutions about their contributions and the political alignment of the outlet went unanswered.
The Cracker Barrel brouhaha has ended the only way it possibly could… with Donald Trump involved. Once the president of the United States says your new logo is stupid, it’s time to bend the knee while waving the white flag of surrender. The restaurant did. Uncle Hershal is back. Now the truth is being told about the decision-making process. Spoiler: The people responsible were told fans would hate it, but they didn’t care.
To recap Tuesday, in the morning, Donald Trump was all like:
Then in the afternoon, Cracker Barrel was all like:
You would have thought that the Bud Light, Target, and other woke corporate fiascos would have been lesson enough, but moooooo....
And the CEO Julie Felss Masino and her board knew. They ignored warnings last year from investor Sardar Biglari that her “strategic transformation plan” and rebrand was “obvious folly.”
When President Trump asserts federal control over Washington, D.C., half measures won’t do. To succeed, he needs to go all the way — and his plan to extend the federal presence in the district is a good start.
The 1973 Home Rule Act allows a president to reassert control over the Metropolitan Police Department for 30 days. Extending beyond that would likely require a congressional resolution or invoking emergency powers, either of which would trigger a Capitol Hill fight. Democrats’ push for D.C. statehood — and two guaranteed Senate seats — depends on convincing Americans that the district can govern itself. It can’t. The city’s experiment in representative democracy has failed as spectacularly as many regimes in the Middle East.
DOJ warns school to accept resolution deal or face legal consequences
President Donald Trump’s administration has condemned George Washington University for breaking the law by failing to address the harassment of Jewish students on campus.
“Today, the Department of Justice finds George Washington University (GWU) in violation of federal civil rights law by acting deliberately indifferent to the hostile educational environment for Jewish, American-Israeli, and Israeli students and faculty,” am Aug. 12 Department of Justice news release reads.

The University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health accepts black applicants at a rate six times higher than it does Asian applicants, despite lower average Medical College Admissions Test scores, a medical advocacy group recently reported.
However, the public university denied that it accepts applicants based on their race when contacted by The College Fix.
The report “Skirting SCOTUS Part III: How Medical Schools Continue to Practice Racially Conscious Admissions” by Do No Harm analyzed 2024 admissions data from 23 medical schools, including the University of Wisconsin’s.
At the Wisconsin medical school, it found that “a black applicant has nearly 10 times the odds of admission compared to an Asian or white applicant with the same MCAT score and GPA.”
More than one out of every five job advertisements for professors sought some sort of diversity, equity and inclusion statement, according to the recently released results of a survey of 10,000 faculty help wanted ads.
What’s more, faculty jobs ads for STEM fields requested DEI materials at the highest rate — 25.5 percent — compared to humanities ads at 23.5 percent and social sciences at 24.8 percent.
Professional and interdisciplinary fields such as business and law had the lowest share of DEI statement requests at 11 percent, according to the survey, conducted by Heterodox Academy last fall. The group released the results this month.
Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt (R) signed a bill on Tuesday ending funding for diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) in higher education.
While Stitt signed SB 796 in May, he ceremonially signed the bill while joined by U.S. Secretary of Education Linda McMahon. McMahon joined Stitt for a visit and literacy roundtable at a public charter school called Dove Science Academy as part of her “Returning Education to the States” 50-State Tour.
“Oklahoma is proving the value of returning education to the states, with schools that emphasize literacy and equip students with what they need to succeed in the workforce,” McMahon said in a statement.
A federal judge in Maryland on Thursday permanently blocked two of President Trump’s memos aimed at ending Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) programs at universities.
Earlier this year, the Department of Education issued an ultimatum to federally funded schools: eliminate DEI programs within 14 days, or risk losing all federal funding.
The directive, detailed in a letter from the Department’s Office for Civil Rights (OCR), was in response to “pervasive and repugnant race-based preferences” that have turned America’s schools into indoctrination camps.
The Justice Department on Tuesday accused George Washington University of showing “deliberate indifference” toward antisemitism and harassment of Jewish, American Israeli, and Israeli students and faculty, in violation of federal civil rights law.
In a notice of findings sent to GWU President Ellen Granberg, the DOJ’s Civil Rights Division said the university failed to take meaningful action despite receiving multiple complaints about antisemitic incidents in spring 2024, when pro-Palestinian protesters descended on campus. Some protesters were seen in videos threatening and harassing Jewish students. Investigators concluded the university violated Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which bars discrimination by recipients of federal funding.

During the first year of the Biden administration, NASA produced a comic book about how a “first woman and the first person of color will walk on the Moon.”
The agency followed that by publishing an additional graphic novel about the fictional character, Callie Rodriguez, and adding a “diverse crew” to join her, according to a NASA press release that quoted then-NASA Administrator Bill Nelson saying, “Diversity is at the core of NASA’s missions and the reason we continue breaking the boundaries of what’s possible. ‘First Woman’ embodies the rich history of countless women who broke barriers and continue to lead NASA to the stars.”
Comedian Bill Maher and Democratic Colorado Rep. Jason Crow debated President Donald Trump’s moves against universities, with Maher saying they had turned into “indoctrination camps.” Crow claimed Trump was not interested in improving universities and making them more affordable and argued that he was engaged in “his culture war” against them, prompting the comedian to point to responses to Hamas’ October 7 attack on Israel as an example of universities producing radicalism.

President Donald Trump’s administration has suspended more than $200 million in research grants to UCLA, citing antisemitism and bias as the reasons.
The suspended grants are primarily through the National Science Foundation and National Institutes of Health, according to a memo to the community from UCLA Chancellor Julio Frenk.
The Los Angeles Timesreported that with the addition of halted Department of Energy grants, the censure represents $300 million in suspended grants, according to “information shared with The Times on Friday by UC and Trump administration officials.”
Frenk, in his memo, denounced the decision as wrongheaded.
“With this decision, hundreds of grants may be lost, adversely affecting the lives and life-changing work of UCLA researchers, faculty and staff,” Frenk wrote in his July 31 memo. “In its notice to us, the federal government claims antisemitism and bias as the reasons. This far-reaching penalty of defunding life-saving research does nothing to address any alleged discrimination.”
Four Cincinnati police officers—Captain Robert Wilson and Lieutenants Patrick Caton, Gerald Hodges, and Andrew Mitchell—filed a federal lawsuit on May 19, 2025, against the city and Police Chief Teresa Theetge, alleging workplace discrimination against white male officers. The lawsuit claims that Chief Theetge and the city favored women and minority officers for preferred assignments, which offer career advancement and benefits.
It further alleges that since Theetge became chief, the department has used race and sex-based criteria for promotions and assignments, disproportionately excluding white male lieutenants. This comes as the woke Police Chief has entered the national spotlight after scolding social media and the media for daring to report on the recent viral video of multiple innocent white people being beaten senseless by multiple black suspects under her watch in Ohio.
In the wake of Columbia’s settlement for $220 million, Harvard has indicated a willingness to settle as well: Harvard University has signaled a willingness to meet the Trump administration’s demand to spend as much as $500 million to end its dispute with the White House as talks between the two sides intensify, four people familiar with the negotiations said. According to one of the people, Harvard is reluctant to directly pay the federal government, but negotiators are still discussing the exact financial terms. The sum sought by the government, which recently accused Harvard of civil rights violations, is more than twice as much as the $200 million fine that Columbia University said it would pay when it settled antisemitism claims with the White House last week. Neither Harvard nor the government has publicly detailed potential terms for a settlement and what allegations the money would be intended to resolve (New York Times).
It’s not enough, Not nearly. Harvard must be purged of the poison that has infected the institution, faculty in every department, every policy decision ……
