The school board in Shenandoah County, Virginia, early Friday approved a proposal that will restore the names of Confederate military leaders to two public schools.
The measure, which passed 5-1, reverses a previous board’s decision in 2020 to change the names of schools that had been linked to Stonewall Jackson, Robert E. Lee and Turner Ashby, three men who led the pro-slavery Southern states during the Civil War. Mountain View High School will go back to the name Stonewall Jackson High School. Honey Run Elementary School will go back to the name Ashby-Lee Elementary School.
The board stripped their names after a Minneapolis police officer murdered George Floyd,

Bret Stephens warned his New York Times readers on Friday that Presidentish Joe Biden "just made his biggest blunder" when he paused delivery of more than 3,000 much-needed aerial bombs to Israel this week. Stephens is the NYT's Conservativish™ writer, so he must drag his readers to the truth like a dog on a leash when he figures out you're taking him to the vet.
That's why Stephens has to include phrases like Biden's "laudable motive" and to remind readers that the absolute worst part is that the suspension is "a political gift to Donald Trump." But the truth is still buried in there

House Democrats voted unanimously to continue including foreign nationals, illegal aliens among them, when apportioning congressional districts in states.
Late on Wednesday, the House voted along party lines, 206-202, for Rep. Chuck Edwards’ (R-NC) Equal Representation Act, with all Republicans supporting the bill and all Democrats opposing: (Video) The Equal Representation Act would require the decennial census, to be taken in 2030, to include a question whereby respondents certify whether they are an American citizen or a foreign national, such as a green card holder, visa holder, or illegal alien.
The Department of Commerce, following the census, would be required to make public the number of American citizens and

President Joe Biden said during a fundraiser Friday in San Francisco, California, that he wished former President Donald Trump had injected himself with bleach.
While speaking at the fundraiser on Friday, Biden referenced a false claim that Trump had once suggested people “inject bleach” to help treat the coronavirus, saying he wished the former president “had done a little bit himself,” according to the Jerusalem Post.“Remember him saying the best thing to do is just inject a little bleach in your arm?” Biden said on Friday. “That’s what he said. And he meant it. I wish he had done a little bit himself.”

For Derrick Evans, being part of the mob that stormed the U.S. Capitol wasn’t enough. The former West Virginia lawmaker wants to make his path to the halls of Congress permanent.
On the other side of the metal barricades that day, Police Officer Harry Dunn couldn’t stand what he saw as he defended the Capitol and its inhabitants from rioters on Jan. 6, 2021. Ultimately, the Maryland resident watched lawmakers he had protected vote to acquit former President Donald Trump and deny the violence and trauma that led to the deaths of some of his fellow officers.

Dozens of illegal immigrants in Denver issued a lengthy list of demands that they say must be met before they agreed to leave the encampments and move to shelters funded by the city. The group of illegal aliens sent a list of 13 demands to Democrat Mayor Mike Johnston on Wednesday which include, access to a free immigration lawyer, fresh food, and unlimited showers.
The issue arose after Johnston petitioned to have the group moved to more permanent shelters.
Migrants will cook their own food with fresh, culturally appropriate ingredients provided by the City instead of premade meals- rice, chicken,

Is there a better example of putting the cart before the horse than “green” energy boondoggles of the left?
The answer is a resounding no.
Force conversions to electric vehicles without putting the proper and sufficient charging infrastructure in place? Check.
Manufacture millions (billions?) of solar panels with no disposal plan in place? Check.
Build countless offshore wind “farms” without conducting studies to determine the impacts? Check.
[snip]
Downstream turbulence from offshore wind turbines can reduce power generation at nearby turbines, substantially reducing the total potential from planned U.S. offshore wind projects, according to recent research from the Colorado University Boulder and National Energy Technology Laboratory.

Former House speaker Kevin McCarthy said Thursday he wouldn’t be able to live with himself if he had made a deal with Democrats to stave off his ouster from House leadership — as Speaker Mike Johnson did this week. The House dismissed a motion to oust Johnson on Wednesday night after Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene (R., Ga.) triggered a floor vote on her resolution. A motion to table Greene’s measure won support from 196 Republicans and 163 Democrats. Some Republicans have claimed Johnson won Democrats’ support by negotiating the passage of foreign aid to Ukraine,

It’s not enough that pro-Hamas mayhem has overtaken college campuses nationwide. We now have these students, though many are probably professional agitators, going on hunger strikes to protest the war in Gaza. We should put “hunger strike” in quotes since this is intermittent fasting. These kids are taking snack breaks—it’s the weakest sauce hunger strike ever. Yet, at Princeton, one student who claims to be immunocompromised complained that she was dying from her self-imposed hunger strike and blamed the school for weakening her. [Video]
“This is absolutely unfair. My peers and I, we are starving. We are physically exhausted. I am quite literally shaking right now,

Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh said Friday that “consistency builds respect” when it comes to trust in the U.S. judicial system Friday, according to The Washington Post.
“Individual decisions don’t have to be popular. … The losing party has to respect the decision,” Kavanaugh said at a judicial conference Friday, the Post reported. Consistency builds respect,” Kavanaugh continued. “It’s showing up every day in the courtroom and trying to be respectful to the parties, to write your opinion in a way that’s clear and understandable, to get out when you’re speaking and try to explain, to the bar,

California Attorney General Rob Bonta (D) is preparing a barrage of lawsuits in the event that former President Donald Trump wins the 2024 election, studying his agenda and planning to stop it in advance in a repeat of 2017-21.
Bonta is planning to repeat the work of his predecessor, Xavier Becerra, who returned from Congress and revived a dormant law license to sue the Trump administration in liberal federal jurisdictions to tie down his presidency.
The Los Angeles Times reported Thursday: California Atty. Gen. Rob Bonta said he and his staff have been reviewing former President Trump’s second-term agenda in detail to prepare a potential
