Trump allies tout ‘Big Beautiful Bill’ for boosting skilled trades, slashing green energy waste
WASHINGTON – Two prominent voices are throwing their support behind the so-called “Big Beautiful Bill,” hailing it as a transformative effort to reinvest in American workers and dismantle what they call bloated, ineffective green energy programs.
Joe Strada, founder and owner of Strada Services, said the bill’s emphasis on vocational training and skilled trades is critical to rebuilding the nation’s workforce and restoring opportunity to everyday Americans.
“I just think it’s only right and fair to let every person in our country have access to the trade and have the opportunity to better themselves and their family,” Strada said on a Florida radio show. “Trade schools and the skill—you know, make America skilled again. That’s how I look at it.” Click here to read more.
Woman saves dog left in hot car, but responding officer says she had ‘no right’ to do so
CORNELIUS, N.C. – A woman in North Carolina said she helped a dog who was trapped inside a hot car on a 90-degree day, but a responding police officer told her she had “no right” to do so.
Suzanne Vella said on June 7, she saw a dog panting inside a hot car that was parked in a shopping center parking lot. She immediately knew she had to do something.
Vella said she called 911 and looked in the area for the dog’s owner, but after not finding them, she opened the car door – which was unlocked – and gave the dog some water.
“I was really concerned because I know it only takes a few minutes for dogs to go into heat stroke. It was a 90-degree day,” Vella said. “It wasn’t even a decision, I knew.” Click here to read more.
America First Legal Sues the University of Michigan and the Michigan Law Review Association for Illegal Racial Discrimination
WASHINGTON, D.C. – America First Legal (AFL), in partnership with Jonathan Mitchell and Ben Flowers, has filed a federal lawsuit on behalf of Faculty, Alumni, and Students Opposed to Racial Preferences (FASORP) in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan against the University of Michigan and its Michigan Law Review Association to halt its rampant racial discrimination.
The University of Michigan’s Michigan Law Review has adopted a radical diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) agenda, using a so-called “holistic review” process to award illegal racial preferences to minorities over white and Asian applicants with superior academic credentials.
This taxpayer-funded institution brazenly defies Title VI, the Equal Protection Clause, and 42 U.S.C. § 1981, employing secretive selection committees to enforce diversity quotas and discriminatory citation policies that favor “underrepresented” authors while penalizing white scholars, including underrepresented Republicans and Protestant Christians. This anti-American scheme corrupts legal education and undermines equal justice under the law. Click here to read more.
How Easy Is It to Order an Abortion Pill? The Answer Is Shocking.
WASHINGTON D.C. - In as little as five minutes, the Daily Caller News Foundation was able to order abortion pills easily opponents argue are unsafe without a doctor adequately verifying key eligibility requirements.
Groups that launched online services after the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved mail-order abortions will provide the pill under circumstances that are questionable even by the agency’s relaxed standards, a DCNF investigation found.
“Mail-order abortion subjects women to an abysmal standard of care,” Dr. Christina Francis, CEO of the American Association of Pro-Life OBGYNs, told the DCNF. “Not only is there minimal health screening that occurs, but women typically have no interaction with any medical professional, let alone a physician.”
The FDA removed in 2021 a requirement that providers distribute mifepristone in person and enabled prescribers to send the pill directly to women in the mail. Now, without speaking to a physician or confirming a pregnancy, a woman can order prescription abortion pills to her home “just in case” she needs them in the future. Click here to read more.
