Texas’ education board voted Friday to allow Bible-infused teachings in elementary schools, joining other Republican-led states that pushed this year to give religion a larger presence in public classrooms. 

MSNBC published one of the most disgraceful articles yet. The title, Laken Riley’s killer never stood a chance, was widely reviled. Danny Cevallos, an MSNBC legal analyst, authored the pathetic piece. Cevallos painted Ibarra as a victim. In no sane world is Ibarra a victim. The article begins: Jose Antonio Ibarra was convicted on multiple counts […] The post MSNBC Is Evil: They Changed a Headline But It Can’t Be Unseen appeared first on www.independentsentinel.com.

President-elect Donald Trump is reportedly planning to fire everyone who worked with special counsel Jack Smith on criminal cases against him. The Washington Post reported that multiple sources close to the Trump transition team indicated that those who will be fired also include career attorneys who are often not fired when a new administration takes over. The report added that Trump wants to create investigative teams within the department to look for evidence of fraud from the 2020 election that may have happened in battleground states. “President Trump campaigned on firing rogue bureaucrats who have engaged in the illegal weaponization of our American justice system, and the American people can expect he will deliver on that promise,” Trump Press Secretary-designate Karoline Leavitt said in a statement. “One of the many reasons that President Trump won the election in a landslide is Americans are sick and tired of seeing their tax dollars spent on targeting the Biden-Harris Administration’s political enemies rather than going after real violent criminals in our streets,” she added. CHECK OUT THE DAILY WIRE HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE Trump’s plans come after he announced on Thursday that he has selected former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi to be the next U.S. Attorney General. Bondi’s nomination came after former Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) withdrew his name from consideration this week after meeting with several U.S. Senators about his chances of being confirmed. Gaetz threw his support behind Bondi on Thursday night, saying that Trump made a “stellar selection” by choosing her. “Pam and I worked closely together when she was Florida’s Attorney General and I chaired Criminal Justice in the state house,” he said. “She’s a proven litigator, an inspiring leader and a champion for all Americans. She will bring the needed reforms to DOJ.”

Joy Behar said she doesn’t understand why bathrooms everywhere are not open to “all genders” amid a discussion about incoming trans-identifying male Congressmen Sarah McBride. On “The View” on Friday, Behar and her cohosts were discussing Rep. Nancy Mace’s (R-SC) bill to keep McBride, who will represent Delaware in the House next year, from using the women’s bathrooms at the Capitol. “We have bathrooms here in this building, it just says ‘all genders,’” Behar explained. “Why can’t they just do that everywhere?” Her cohost Ana Navarro suggested McBride could use the bathroom of every person in Congress who is “not a bigot.” The View calls fort ALL BATHROOMS EVERYWHERE to be open to “all genders.” “We have bathrooms here in this building, it just says ‘all genders.’ Why can’t they just do that everywhere?” – Joy Behar.

She said it will ban “members, officers, and employees of the House from using single-sex facilities other than those corresponding to their biological sex, and for other purposes.” It also forbids anyone from accessing facilities on federal property that do not correspond with their biological sex, and it provides precise definitions of what it means to be female or male, as previously reported. “I’m going to do everything I can to protect women and girls here on the hill, but also across the nation,” she said on “The Michael Knowles Show,” where she first unveiled the bill. “This is a question that needs to be answered. Do women have rights or not? Are we going to allow these men to bully us into submission? And I say, no, no more. I’m done with this.” CHECK OUT THE DAILY WIRE HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE “There’s no amount of bullying and threats on my life that they’ve made this week that’s going to stop me from this,” she added, promising to “fight like hell” for the protection of women and girls. Speaker Mike Johnson has signaled support for the act and said in a statement, “All single-sex facilities in the Capitol and House Office Buildings – such as restrooms, changing rooms, and locker rooms — are reserved for individuals of that biological sex.” “It is important to note that each Member office has its own private restroom, and unisex restrooms are available throughout the Capitol,” he added. “Women deserve women’s only spaces.” McBride later released a statement that he will abide by Johnson’s Wednesday directive that “all single-sex facilities in the Capitol and House Office Buildings — such as restrooms, changing rooms, and locker rooms — are reserved for individuals of that biological sex.” Mary Margaret Olohan contributed to this piece.

Jason Kelce hung up his football cleats at the end of the 2023/2024 season, but that doesn’t mean he’s ready to retire completely. He and his brother Travis Kelce co-host the podcast New Heights. Jason also commentates on Monday Night Football. But the retired Philadelphia Eagles center has something new on the horizon. Jason Kelce recently told Jimmy Kimmel Live he retired from football, so now he’s headed to late-night television. His life is busy with his wife and three daughters, but Jason is a footballer at heart and wants to get back into the game—somehow. Jason Kelce Realized He Can’t Fully Retire From Football Jason may not want to play professionally anymore, but football is part of him. He told Jimmy he was excited about the new advertisement. “Yes, I’m starting; I believe it’s January 3rd; I hope it’s January 3rd! We’ll be doing a late-night show during the postseason on ESPN,” Jason explained. He added that the show will air on Friday night. So it won’t interfere with his Monday night gig.“When I first approached ESPN with potentially working for them, Monday Night Football was a big part of that, Monday night countdown,” Jason explained. Jason Kelce added that he has missed one thing about football since he retired. “For me, the biggest thing that players miss when they leave the sport is being around the guys,” he said. Jason Kelce understands that when most pro athletes retire, that’s the end of their career. He feels very fortunate to keep going. He told Jimmy, “Being able to have the show, where we’re gonna have a bunch of guys up there, legends of the game, friends that I’ve played with, coaches, celebrities. While also incorporating NFL films, who’s going to be a part of it.” This story’s featured image is by Randy Holmes / Getty Contributor.

My picturesque and diverse home state of California has become overrun with crime, illegal drugs, and homelessness under “progressive” policies. Yet, following the November elections, it appears there may be hope for the state after all.   While illegal immigration is a huge problem for the Golden State, it was legal immigrants who redeemed one voting center worker’s faith in the fight for conservative values in California.   My father, Mark Streb, worked in an Orange County, California, voting center this past election, where he met a number of legal immigrants and escapees of communist regimes that yearned for the return of conservative leadership in America.   “I will never forget one older woman in particular,” Streb said. “She required some assistance with the [voting] machine, and after getting her ballot fed, stopped and engaged with me. Our eyes met, and hers filled with tears as she told me, ‘I came from a communist country. We are headed in the wrong direction and are making terrible mistakes. We need Trump!’ Her voice was soft enough to not be overheard by others, yet desperate and emphatic at the same time.”  As a poll worker, Streb needed to remain as unbiased as possible, yet he stated, “I was moved by this exchange. I later learned from a colleague that this woman was from Venezuela. It struck me again that the people who have immigrated to the United States from dark and sinister regimes understand what is truly at stake—freedom, liberty, and life itself.”  Another worker at the polls—the only other professing to be a Donald Trump voter—also escaped a communist regime.   Svetlana Ramsay, 63, told The Daily Signal after the election, “As an immigrant from Russia—I moved to California in 1990—I feel great about the future now that Trump is going to be our next president. It feels like there will be change for the better in domestic and foreign policy.”  Increased support for Trump and conservative values in California is undeniable. Over 70% of Golden State voters passed Proposition 36, which cracks down on drug trafficking and theft. Trump gained a lot of ground in California, flipping 10 counties to red, according to Fox 5 San Diego.    “California had the joint biggest swing towards Trump of any state in 2024, at 12 percentage points,” Newsweek reported earlier this month.  Despite this red shift, Gov. Gavin Newsom is determined to “Trump-proof” California, advising state lawmakers to prepare funding for litigation against the approaching Trump administration.   “Newsom wants to show that he is on the side of poor people, [that] he protects immigrants’ rights, but in reality, he is a wealthy politician who is detached from reality,” Ramsay said. “During the pandemic, he was enforcing masks while dining without masks in a very expensive restaurant in Northern California. He is a professional politician and hypocrite. And it is not good for California residents if your governor constantly quarrels with the federal government.”  Newsom wrote on X, “California is ready to fight. … We refuse to turn back the clock and allow our values and laws to be attacked.”  Legal immigrants like Ramsay, as well as results from California ballot measures like Proposition 36, prove that there is a “progressive disconnect with real California values,” according to the Orange County Register.  Streb concluded from his time at the voting center: “I was thrilled with the number of people who came out to express their voice via vote … After all, it was for this reason so many men and women have sacrificed, dating back to our Founding Fathers.” Following his exchange with the immigrant from Venezuela, he noted, “I could not have been prouder to be an American at that moment.” The post The Legal Immigrants This Voting Center Worker Met Gave Him Hope for California appeared first on The Daily Signal.

You'll Never Guess What Collapsed the Same Day as the German Government

The attorney general of Texas is investigating an effort by advertising firms to demonetize X and other platforms and coerce the platform into censoring its own users. AG Ken Paxton announced Thursday that he’s launching an investigation into an alleged conspiracy by advertising firms using boycotts to pressure companies like X into censoring users. "It is completely unacceptable and un-American that the Department of Justice under the Biden Administration failed to enforce antitrust laws against its perceived political allies,” he wrote in an X post. Paxton is specifically investigating whether the World Federation of Advertisers (WFA) and its Global Alliance for Responsible Media (GARM) violated the Texas Free Enterprise and Antitrust Act of 1983 and whether or not the Biden administration failed to enforce antitrust policy. WFA controls 90 percent of all ad spending worldwide, according to the Foundation of Freedom Online. It then uses its massive market control and its peer pressure campaign, GARM, to steer advertisers away from sites and audiences that allow certain speech — oftentimes conservative speech. GARM weaponized its “Brand Safety Standards” to pressure advertisers into boycotting Twitter (now X) after Elon Musk bought it and promised to make it pro-free speech, according to a July House Judiciary Committee report. GARM also tried to redirect ad revenue away from Spotify to pressure it to cancel podcaster Joe Rogan, according to the report. In his press release about the investigation, Paxton said, “Trade organizations and companies cannot collude to block advertising revenue from entities they wish to undermine. Today’s document request is part of an ongoing investigation to hold WFA and its members accountable for any attempt to rig the system to harm organizations they might disagree with.” WFA and GARM have been under scrutiny on multiple different fronts this year, as Rumble and X filed a lawsuit against GARM, and the House Judiciary Committee has scrutinized GARM.
