WASHINGTON D.C. - Montana Republican Sen. Steve Daines said the NFL was wrong to allow the Washington Commanders to dump its previous name, the Redskins, in what he calls a “case of woke gone wrong.”

Appearing on Fox News’ “s “America Reports,” Sen. Daines said that the Commanders should reverse course and return their former name to the team.

The man credited with the creation of the original logo, Blackie Wetzel, says he based his image on John Two Guns White Calf in 1971. The surviving family of John Two Guns White Calf also back the call to return the Redskins name and logo to the NFL.

“(Don Wetzel) had a vision to use the proud symbol to benefit his people,” Daines told committee members on Tuesday, according to the Daily Montanan. “This morning, I spoke to his son, Ryan Wetzel, about the ongoing negotiations and the progress that has been made.” Click here to read more.

 

COLORADO SPRINGS, COL - The FBI referred Colorado Springs Mayor Yemi Mobolade for prosecution for making false statements related to a hate crime hoax intended to boost his candidacy, but the Department of Justice refused to pursue it for racial and political reasons, an FBI official told The Daily Wire.

On Nov. 12 the Acting U.S. Attorney for the District of Colorado announced that three of Mobolade’s supporters had been charged with writing the n-word on one of his campaign signs, erecting a burning cross in front of it, and sending video of the spectacle to the news media to turn out the black vote for Mobolade, an African immigrant. Mobolade, a left-wing candidate, went on to defeat a white Republican in a closely fought election in the conservative-leaning city.

Communications obtained by investigators showed that the now-mayor was in close contact with the lead suspect, Derrick Bernard, before the incident, on the day of, and afterward.

The FBI interviewed Mobolade twice to determine his knowledge of the hoax, and Mobolade explicitly and strenuously denied contact with Bernard, the official said. The official said there were dozens of messages between Bernard and the now-mayor. The official also said Mobolade was scrolling through his phone as a memory aide during the interview, but that “he was literally skipping over text messages,” not realizing that the bureau had already obtained them elsewhere.

TEMPLE TERRACE, Fla. – Parents are outraged after Florida Connections Academy, a taxpayer-funded virtual charter school, held an LGBTQ-themed virtual lesson for students, which the parents said was conducted without parental consent.

In response to a Florida’s Voice investigation, the state Department of Education sent a letter to Florida Connections Academy’s Executive Director Marcie Trombino notifying her that an investigation is underway and that he expects the school to “fully cooperate in this matter.”

The school email, verified by Florida’s Voice, was sent to students and invited those in grades 9-12 grades to “take some time to enjoy the company of LGBTQ+ students and allies from both Connections Academy schools around the country and Pearson Online Academy!”

The optional “Pride Snack and Chat” lesson was held at 12 p.m. on Nov. 15, during which various LGBTQ topics were discussed.

A verified parent, who wishes to remain anonymous, told Florida’s Voice they were not notified about the 12 p.m. event and that the event was not visible on the parent’s public calendar.

The parents said the event was “highly inappropriate – pretty disgusting.”

“Generally speaking it’s appalling that they went behind the parents’ backs and discussed these grotesque ideologies,” the parent told Florida’s Voice. “None of this stuff should be discussed in front of children.” Click here to read more.

 

LANSING, Mich - A growing body of Democrat legislators in Michigan are packing their social media bags as the House enters its lame duck session — and potentially leaving constituents behind. 

A contingent of House Democrats announced plans to leave the social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, in favor of Bluesky, a Twitter clone spun off from the company under ex-CEO Jack Dorsey’s tenure. 

The House Democrat caucus itself announced a move to the site, although not necessarily plans to stop posting on X, which is now owned by anti-censorship, free speech billionaire Elon Musk. 

The catch is, the platform Bluesky is, by its own users, heavily censored. The site, whose traffic shot up after a left exodus from X, saw a spike in complaints, censorship requests, and on leftist arrival, a flood of child pornography.   Click here to read more.

Michigan High School Students depicts Charlie Kirk murder during school
School district is investigating

LIVONIA, Mich. — Livonia Public Schools says administrators at Churchill High School took action after becoming aware of a student’s reported depiction of the killing of Charlie Kirk.

According to information provided to Keeping it Real, a student reportedly arrived at Churchill High School dressed to depict Kirk being killed, including what appeared to be fake blood running down the student’s neck.

The incident raised questions about how the school responded and whether the depiction violated district policies.

A photograph of the student in the costume was subsequently posted to a non- affiliated

Churchill Instagram account, with the song “We Are Charlie Kirk.”

I have obtained a copy of the photo, but due to its disturbing nature, I have chosen not to publish it.

Keeping it Real contacted school officials seeking an explanation of what happened and how administrators handled the situation.

Stacy Jenkins, administrator of district communications, said Churchill High School officials learned about the situation at the beginning of the school day and acted quickly.

 

“Churchill High School administration was made aware of the situation at the start of the school day and swiftly addressed it with the student involved,” Jenkins said.

Jenkins acknowledged that the depiction was inappropriate.

“While we cannot prevent every poor choice a student may make, we can ensure that inappropriate behavior is addressed when our administration becomes aware — that is exactly what occurred in this situation,” Jenkins said. “The depiction was inappropriate and did not align with our expectations for student behavior.”

The district’s response does not specify what action was taken involving the student or whether disciplinary measures were imposed.

The incident comes amid heightened concerns about how schools handle depictions or references to real-world political violence, particularly when they involve students.

Michigan pays out smaller portion of pothole damage claims

Michigan drivers who traverse state highways often incur vehicle damage from potholes. Many of Michigan’s roads tend to be riddled with potholes that blow out tires, crack windshields and break suspensions.

Some drivers seek state compensation, but only about 12% of those people received it last year, according to a document that Michigan Capitol Confidential obtained via a records request.

Michigan paid 10 out of 86 claims for pothole-related damages in 2025, totaling $4,844, according to the Michigan Department of Transportation.

Those 10 people who received compensation from the state claimed damages caused by potholes on I-75, I-96, US-12, M-77, M-89, Saginaw Street, Plymouth Road, and Fort Street. Click here to read more.


 

Trump Asks SCOTUS to Permit Voter Verification System Ahead of Midterms

On Tuesday, Solicitor General John Sauer wrote to SCOTUS asking the justices to stay an order from Judge Sparkle Sooknanan, appointed to the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia by former President Joe Biden.

In June, Sooknanan issued an order preventing the government from using an updated Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements (SAVE) program. The updates greatly streamlined the process for states to purge voter rolls of ineligible voters.

According to Sauer, Sooknanan’s order is “indefensible” and “threatens the integrity of upcoming elections by vacating the federal government’s authority to internally use Social Security data when fulfilling its duty to respond to requests by States to verify the citizenship of individuals for voting and other purposes.”

“The order will irreparably harm the federal government, the States, and the public by depriving the government of an effective tool to verify the eligibility of registered voters and benefits applicants under various state and federal programs,” Sauer writes to SCOTUS. Click here to read more.

Florida blocks 10 CDL training schools after federal regulators remove them from registry

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Florida education officials are blocking 10 commercial driver training schools from recruiting new students or collecting tuition after federal regulators removed the providers from a national registry as part of a crackdown on commercial driver training.

The Florida Department of Education announced Tuesday that it is taking action against the 10 schools following their removal from the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration’s Training Provider Registry.

Through the Commission for Independent Education, the state ordered affected licensed programs to immediately stop advertising, recruiting, enrolling new students and collecting tuition while their federal removal remains in effect.

The schools must also identify students who have been affected, provide refunds where required and report to the state on corrective actions and communications with federal regulators. Click here to read more.
