School board bans clapping....seriously

ALPENA, Mich. — A new rule banning applause and other displays of emotion at Alpena Public Schools board meetings has sparked pushback from community members who say the policy infringes on their free speech rights.

The board recently adopted a policy prohibiting clapping, cheering, booing, or any demonstrations from audience members during meetings. Board President Eric Lawson said the restriction is meant to prevent disruptions and maintain order.

“We’re doing our best to show respect to you all and make sure you have adequate time for your comments,” Lawson said during a recent meeting. “Please show the board a little respect as well.”

Not everyone in attendance agreed. Several residents voiced frustration, including one woman who argued that clapping constitutes symbolic speech protected under the First Amendment.

“Clapping is a universal symbolic action that typically expresses approval,” she said. “Up until one week ago, clapping was a regular occurrence at these ...

Immigration ‘expert’ tells Michigan Senate committee illegal entry into the U.S. ‘not a crime’

An immigration “expert” who testified in support of anti-ICE legislation promoted by Senate Democrats insisted Thursday it’s not a crime to enter the country illegally, though the lie didn’t go unchecked.

“Being undocumented in this country is not a crime, it’s a civic infraction,” Yvonne Navarrete, policy director at We the People Michigan, told the Senate Civil Rights, Judiciary, and Public Safety Committee on Thursday. “That is not my personal opinion, that is the law.” Click here to read more.

Report shares Nancy Pelosi made $130 million in stock profits during her political career

Transgender Activists Use Far-Left Smear Factory to Cancel Doctor Education Courses That Raise Doubts About ‘Gender-Affirming Care’

Doctors must take continuing medical education courses to maintain their licenses, and transgender activists took objection to one of these courses, leading a nationwide institution to effectively cancel it.

Washington State University had spent nearly a year reviewing—and then approving—a course explaining the side effects of experimental transgender medical interventions on children and Europe’s growing rejection of “gender-affirming care.” Yet activists cried foul, citing the Southern Poverty Law Center, a pro-transgender activist group best known for demonizing conservatives.

79-year-old landlord fatally shot naked trespasser who was attacking tenant, police say

LOS ANGELES (KCAL/KCBS) - It’s difficult to make out exactly what the naked man was saying in the surveillance video, but it’s clear to see what happens next.

He picks up what looks like street signs while screaming, then suddenly runs across Tujunga Avenue in Los Angeles.

“He just was walking up and down the sidewalk. Then he saw the gate was open and ran over there in their gate,” one witness described.

Neighbors say they heard screaming, which turned into gunfire. Click here to read more.

Michigan budget deal: two steps forward, one step back

Michigan lawmakers don’t have to agree on much each year, other than how to spend all the money that the state collects from its taxes. Partisans needed to compromise with each other to do this, since Republicans hold a majority in the House and there is a Democratic governor with a Democratic majority Senate. Both sides were going to have to give up something and get something in order to pass a budget. What they came up with has a number of positive features.

Lawmakers will likely get to the point where roads are fixed faster than they fall apart, and they mostly got there without raising taxes. They substituted the sales tax levied on fuel, which largely goes to schools, for a per-gallon tax on fuel, which goes to transportation purposes. Click here to read more.
