Over the last year, Fox News Digital has uncovered troubling trends within the educational system, revealing a heavy far-left influence permeating university curricula across the United States. This focus on left-wing ideologies has ignited considerable backlash from various conservative groups and parents advocating for traditional values in education. Recent revelations from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign are particularly alarming. Leaked PowerPoint slides from a first-year education course display an overtly political slant on issues of illegal immigration, race, and gender. One slide notably accuses President Trump of fostering “white supremacy.” Such explicit bias raises questions about academic objectivity and the…

In a recent piece, Politico’s Hannah Roberts takes a deep dive into the intersections of Christmas and politics in Europe, raising eyebrows with her claims regarding the holiday’s appropriation by right-wing parties. The article suggests that Christmas is seen as pivotal in the fight against a leftist cultural tide, with various conservative figures positioning themselves as its protectors. This framing begs the question: what exactly has Christmas been co-opted from? It’s hard to ignore its foundational meaning as the celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ. Roberts implies that conservatives paint the holiday as a marker of Christian civilization, struggling…
Jimmy Kimmel made waves this Christmas Day, but not for the reasons one might hope for a holiday message. Instead of spreading cheer, he shifted his long-standing feud with President Trump across the pond. His so-called “alternative Christmas” message to UK viewers quickly turned into a display of blatant irony and self-awareness—or lack thereof. Broadcasting from the United Kingdom, Kimmel took a jab at Trump, calling America a breeding ground for “tyranny.” “I honestly have no idea what’s going on over there, but I do know what’s going on over here,” he stated. “And I tell you that from a…
Minnesota’s Lieutenant Governor, Peggy Flanagan, recently raised eyebrows with her appearance in a video where she donned a hijab while speaking to the Somali community at the Somali Carmel Market. In an enthusiastic tone, she claimed they are woven into the “fabric” of Minnesota. While her gestures were meant to be inclusive, many critics see it as troubling amid growing scrutiny of scandals linked to the Somali community in the state. These scandals have reportedly cost taxpayers billions, an issue that Flanagan did not address during her speech. In the video, Flanagan expressed her gratitude for the Somali community, stating,…
The article highlights the growing resonance of a particular Bible verse in today’s tumultuous climate. It reflects on how serious challenges, from the lingering effects of the COVID-19 pandemic to rising violence and a perceived shift in values, shape public sentiment. In a world where uncertainty is rampant, people are seeking solace and assurance, making scripture a vital source of comfort. Isaiah 41:10 stands out, repeatedly becoming the most shared verse on a popular Bible app. This scripture speaks of God’s comforting presence: “So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your…
A pro-police group is gearing up to challenge a prosecutor in Virginia who is under scrutiny for allegedly being too lenient toward illegal immigrant offenders. The Law Enforcement Legal Defense Fund (LELDF) plans to request an investigation by the Justice Department, invoking a provision used during the Biden administration to probe police practices following incidents like the Breonna Taylor case. This provision focuses on patterns of civil rights violations and was applied to various police departments across the country for claims of excessive force and discrimination. The target of this proposal is Fairfax County Commonwealth’s Attorney Steve Descano, who attracted…
Radovan Vítek’s story presents a striking example of how regulatory environments can shape the fortunes of individuals involved in dubious financial practices. The Czech billionaire has allegedly been at the center of a scheme resulting in massive financial losses for thousands of Americans—losses that exceed one billion dollars from pension funds. While Vítek’s name might not be familiar to everyone, his actions speak volumes about the disparity in accountability between Europe and the United States. According to lawsuits and findings from European regulators, Vítek engaged in practices reminiscent of a corporate raider, using shell companies to mask his control over…
The monumental feat of George Washington crossing the Delaware on Christmas night in 1776 serves as a powerful symbol of American resilience and faith. During a time of great despair in the Revolutionary War, this daring move solidified Washington’s legacy and became a turning point in the fight for independence. On that fateful night, the Continental Army faced overwhelming odds. The troops, fatigued from a string of defeats that left morale in tatters, managed to accomplish a risky crossing under atrocious conditions. With temperatures plummeting and ice threatening to capsize their boats, only about 2,400 out of the planned 5,400…
President Donald Trump continues to blend humor and policy in a way that resonates with many. A recent phone call he had on Christmas Eve exemplifies this style perfectly. During a lighthearted exchange with a child, the young caller expressed his wish: “Not coal!” Trump’s quick response, “You mean ‘clean, beautiful coal,” not only brought laughter but also underscored a key element of his energy agenda. His ability to connect with the public, even in a casual setting, constitutes a significant aspect of his leadership style. This moment was part of the 70th annual North American Aerospace Defense Command Santa…
President Donald Trump has enacted several new tax breaks that may stimulate the economy and bolster Republican prospects in the forthcoming midterm elections. These initiatives, part of the “Big Beautiful Bill,” were championed by Trump and are set to take effect for tax filings from 2026 to 2028. The details of these tax changes reveal a strategic approach aimed at appealing to key voting groups, particularly the middle class and seniors. One of the most significant aspects of the new tax framework is the elimination of taxes on tips and overtime pay. This change will allow a maximum deduction of…
Senator Cory Booker and U.S. Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard clashed recently over remarks made during Gabbard’s speech at AmericaFest. Gabbard brought attention to what she termed the threats posed by Islamist ideology, specifically mentioning Paterson, New Jersey. Booker did not hold back in his response. He took to Twitter to emphasize the city of Paterson’s values. “Paterson is one of New Jersey’s oldest cities and has always embodied the best American values — industry, perseverance, and diversity,” he wrote. He accused Gabbard of using Paterson to incite fear and discord among communities, calling her approach “dishonest, cruel, and…
The ongoing legal battle over “gender-affirming care” for minors highlights a significant clash between state governments and the federal administration. Nineteen states are banding together to challenge recent actions by Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who has indicated plans to cut funding for medical providers that administer these procedures. This coalition includes liberal strongholds such as California, New York, and Illinois, all asserting that the administration’s position oversteps its authority and threatens essential healthcare access for children. The stakes are high, with Attorney General Dan Rayfield of Oregon leading the charge. He argues that the federal…
The recent critique of the classic movie “It’s a Wonderful Life” by a Carleton University professor raises eyebrows and provokes discussion about how far some are willing to stretch their interpretations of beloved American films. In an article published by The Conversation, the professor argues that the film contains “secret racial and bigoted” messages, claiming to unearth a layer of racism embedded within its narrative and musical elements. This accusation is surprising and indicative of a trend where cultural analyses sometimes veer into absurdity. The focus of the professor’s critique revolves around the depiction of music in the film. She…
Rep. Andy Barr of Kentucky recently announced the passing of his longtime aide and campaign manager, Tatum Dale, on Christmas Day.

In a striking turn of events, Sean “Diddy” Combs is back in the legal spotlight as his defense team pushes for his release from prison. After facing conviction on prostitution-related charges, the disgraced rap mogul is appealing, claiming that he received an unfair sentence influenced by allegations he was acquitted of. This appeal comes amid the fallout from a Netflix documentary produced by Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson, which seems to exacerbate the negative press surrounding Combs. On November 23, Diddy’s lawyers made their case before a federal appeals court in New York, arguing for his immediate release or, at the…
Describing the latest Jeffrey Epstein file dump as a failure would insult genuine failures. This release is reminiscent of cinematic misfires now better known for their flops than their artistic merit. Much like the dismal performances of “Waterworld” or “Ishtar,” the Epstein documents promised intrigue but delivered next to nothing. Even the infamous “E.T.: The Video Game” for the Atari 2600 can breathe a sigh of relief, having long since relinquished its title as the defining disappointment of the holiday season. The excitement surrounding this file release was palpable, but it quickly dissipated into a puff of smoke when faced…
Capitol Hill is experiencing a rare lull as lawmakers leave for the holidays, creating a ghost town. Both the House and Senate are out of session until early January, leaving many critical issues unresolved as deadlines approach for Democrats and Republicans. The last notable legislative action involved bringing an end to the record-breaking 43-day government shutdown, but much remains unsettled. Congress managed to allocate only part of the federal funding necessary for Fiscal Year 2026 before adjourning. They postponed decisions on the bulk of the funding until January 30, creating uncertainty as lawmakers prepare to reconvene. A significant factor contributing…
Vice President JD Vance didn’t hold back when he took aim at Rep. Jasmine Crockett during Turning Point USA’s AmFest event in Phoenix. His comment about Crockett’s “street-girl persona” drew laughter and boos from the crowd. Vance’s jibe wasn’t just a punchline; it represented a wider sentiment among Republicans questioning the authenticity of some Democratic figures. He stated, “And Jasmine Crockett… the record speaks for itself. She wants to be a senator, though her street-girl persona is about as real as her nails.” This remark suggests skepticism toward Crockett’s public identity, prompting a spirited response from the Texas congresswoman. Crockett…
Amidst a backdrop of significant achievements for President Trump, a recent appearance by Representative Jamie Raskin on CNN showcased a stark contrast between the reality of the administration’s successes and Raskin’s frantic and inaccurate claims. During the “State of the Union” program with host Kasie Hunt, Raskin, a longtime critic of the president, attempted to paint a picture of an administration in disarray, declaring it was “collapsing” despite growing evidence to the contrary. Raskin’s appearance came at a time when the Trump administration celebrated far better than expected economic indicators, namely GDP growth and inflation reports, alongside polling data indicating…
Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) is once again in the spotlight, defending her actions amidst significant scrutiny. The focus is on her 2020 MEALS Act, which has come under fire for allegedly enabling fraud within Minnesota’s child nutrition program. The “Feeding Our Future” scheme has been tied to over $250 million in fraudulent claims, affecting the Somali community disproportionately. Despite the backlash, Omar remains steadfast, stating, “Absolutely not, it did help feed kids.” This response underscores her conviction that the initiative, viewed as a failure by many, was well-intentioned. During an encounter with reporters, Omar was confronted about the implications of…
In mid-December, a striking event unfolded in Minnesota that raised eyebrows and sparked debate. It involved Democratic state senators tearfully apologizing to Somali migrants accused of significant fraud against taxpayer-funded welfare programs. Allegations have swirled around the Somali community pilfering funds from initiatives like the Feeding Our Future program, aimed at providing meals to children in need. Many see the situation as emblematic of broader issues that stretch across the nation. At the Ishad Islamic Center in Eden Prairie, state senators Ann Johnson Stewart and Steve Cwodzinski, accompanied by Mayor Ron Case, took center stage to express their remorse. Stewart,…
