Massachusetts Church Cancels Traditional Fourth of July Celebration

“to Better Understand Our Own Whiteness.” For 25 years, the historic Nantucket Unitarian Meeting House has hosted a public reading of the Declaration of Independence and the Bill of Rights. The letter announcing the cancellation from Splaine and the NUU Nantucket church is full of the usual virtue-signaling jingoism that has become common on the left: “Our cancelling the 4th of July celebration this year reflects … an on-going process within the congregation to better understand our own whiteness."

The decision signals a shift in LGBTQ+ policy in the country since Prime Minister Péter Magyar took office. Hungarian police said they will not prevent anyone from taking part in next month’s Budapest Pride parade, signaling a shift in LGBTQ+ policy in the country since Prime Minister Péter Magyar took office earlier this month. “The Budapest Metropolitan Police has approved the 2026 Budapest Pride Parade and also has issued restrictive orders in relation to three counter-demonstrations,” a police spokesperson told POLITICO on Friday. The announcement reinforces Magyar’s pledge to pursue a more liberal approach to LGBTQ+ rights in Hungary.

[Ed: this murder may constitute a tipping point in ignoring the victimization of whites by non.] The family of murdered student, Henry Nowak, said they will carry their grief "every single day" for the rest of their lives and have called on the government to treat knife crime as a "national emergency". It comes after Vickrum Digwa, 23, was sentenced to life in prison, for a minimum of 21 years, for using a 21cm (8in) blade he said he carried as part of his Sikh faith to stab the 18-year-old in Southampton in December. Digwa had lied to police about being the victim of a racist attack and officers arrested and handcuffed Nowak as he lay

The group's leadership repeatedly expressed support for the terrorist groups Hamas and Hezbollah." Year after year, Toronto police have allowed Muslim pro-terrorist mobs to invade and harass the Jewish community. Now, PM Mark Carney has declared that there is a “scourge of antisemitism” and plans to combat it with a DEI council. To that end, the Prime Minister, Mark Carney, today announced the launch and membership of Canada’s new Ministerial Advisory Council on Rights, Equality, and Inclusion to be chaired by the Minister of Canadian Identity and Culture. The Council has a clear mission: to combat racism and hate in all their forms, and to guide the Government of Canada as we build a fairer, more just, and more inclusive country.

School abuse scandals that have triggered France to weigh new law
Topic: Children and Family
Source: France 24
French lawmakers are set to debate a bill aimed at protecting children and combatting violence in schools. The legislation was drafted in the wake of a parliamentary investigation into the Bétharram abuse scandal, which exposed decades of mistreatment at a Catholic-run school in southwestern France. It also comes at the same time as Paris investigators probe allegations non-teaching staff recruited by the city mistreated or abused children at dozens of shcools across the capital.

Judges: Pentagon Ban on Transgender Troops Is Illegal
Topic: Political Correctness
Source: AP News
Appeals court panel largely upholds last year's ruling on policy. A Trump administration policy illegally banned transgender troops from military service, a divided panel of federal appeal court judges ruled on Monday. The majority opinion by a three-judge panel from the US Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia circuit largely upholds a March 2025 ruling by US District Judge Ana Reyes in Washington, DC, the AP reports. Reyes concluded that President Trump's executive order to exclude transgender troops from military service likely violates their constitutional rights. The Monday ruling won't immediately go into effect, allowing the administration time to ask the full appeals court to hear the case.

Judge Rejects Bill Cosby's Bid for New Trial in LA
Topic: Violence Against Women

Judge upholds multimillion-dollar civil verdict for Donna Motsinger . Bill Cosby's bid to undo a multimillion-dollar civil judgment in Los Angeles has hit a wall, the Los Angeles Times reports. A county Superior Court judge on Friday refused Cosby's request for a new trial, leaving intact a jury's decision that he owes $19.25 million in damages to Donna Motsinger, who says he drugged and sexually assaulted her in 1972. (USA Today reports the amount owed is $59.25 million, citing $40 million in punitive damages that were also awarded.) Judge Bradley S. Phillips ruled Cosby hadn't shown any procedural problems that would have undercut the fairness of the trial and said the damages were not unreasonably high. Phillips wrote there was enough evidence to back the jury's conclusion that Cosby's actions caused Motsinger's harm.

The Ongoing Legal Battles in Teen Transgender Cases
Topic: Children and Family
Source: Prescott News
Parents who say they were separated from children for refusing to affirm transgender identity are still fighting states in court. Their cases are ongoing, and they fear losing custody of their children by violating court gag orders. Accounts such as Lyaschenko’s are surfacing in legal battles across the nation, pitting states against parents and parents against courts or each other. On April 2, Lyaschenko testified in New Hampshire, where the legislature was considering a bill that would ban Child Protective Services from removing minors from parental custody solely because they wouldn’t support so-called gender transitions. New Hampshire is not the only state considering such laws. A similar bill is working its way through the Ohio Legislature, after reports that Cuyahoga County was implementing a program tracking the sexual and gender identity of children as young as 5.

Finding Sheba: The Search for an Ancient Queen
Topic: Women's Studies, Scholarship, and History

Few biblical tales have stirred the imagination across cultures as powerfully as the legendary meeting between King Solomon and the Queen of Sheba. Told in the First Book of Kings (10:1–13), the story describes a mysterious monarch who traveled from a distant land with caravans of gold, spices, and precious stones to test Solomon with riddles and witness his famed wisdom... Yet, despite the vividness of the episode, the identity and location of her kingdom remain one of the Bible’s enduring mysteries. The two most widely accepted views place Sheba either in southern Arabia (present-day Yemen) or in Ethiopia...

The American Federation of Teachers, the second-largest teachers' union in the U.S., released a 10-point plan to introduce AI and screen-time guardrails in classrooms. The plan would limit AI use and ban screens for students in prekindergarten through second grade "unless there is a compelling reason," such as supporting students with special needs.

Low and Falling Fertility Means Social Security’s Funding Problems
Topic: Children and Family
Source: Cato Institute
Are Worse Than Expected. Social Security’s long-term shortfall is likely significantly worse than projected. In 2025, the Social Security Trustees estimated that the program faces a 75-year funding shortfall equal to $27 trillion in present-value terms. But those projections rely on unusually optimistic assumptions about future US fertility rates. The Trustees are likely understating Social Security’s insolvency problem by assuming Americans will start having far more children than current trends suggest.

Harvard slashes 'A' grades
Topic: Political Correctness
Source: Human Events
but the truth is students haven't been earning them. A university report found that more than 60 percent of grades awarded to Harvard undergraduates are now A's, compared to just a quarter that number two decades ago. To combat this, Harvard University recently announced plans to cap the number of A grades professors are allowed to award in undergraduate courses — and the backlash was immediate. The proposed reform would limit A grades to only 20 percent of students in each course. The response has been more revealing than the inflation itself. Students quickly organized petitions calling the policy "racist," despite the fact that the proposal does not even limit A-minus grades and had nothing at all to do with race.

Jill Biden is still gaslighting the American people
Topic: Children and Family
Source: Human Events
The fact is, it doesn’t seem like Biden was worried at all about her husband—she’s just insisting on revising history and gaslighting the American people, either to obfuscate her role in his decline, or to abdicate her responsibility for communicating the truth. The CBS Morning interview prefaces the publication of Biden’s memoir, “View from the East Wing,” which publishes June 2. According to excerpts, Biden observed that Vice President Kamala Harris demanded that President Biden endorse her immediately, as if she were a “courtroom prosecutor.” Biden did, in fact, endorse Harris in a statement about half an hour after announcing he was dropping out of his reelection campaign. She lost handily, of course, to Trump.

Virginia Can’t Subsidize Its Way to Affordable Childcare
Topic: Children and Family
Source: Cato Institute
The problem with childcare is not a lack of state intervention. Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger vowed to make affordability her focus. But her latest childcare initiative risks moving costs in the opposite direction — and as a mother in a dual-working household who recently welcomed a new child, I have a personal stake in getting this right. Governor Spanberger signed into law the Employee Childcare Assistance Program to provide state matching funds for employer contributions toward employees’ childcare costs. She then signed a separate bill creating a childcare access calculation to estimate the annual state funding needed to support the new system.

Black People Are Not Children, Nor Are They Special
Topic: Political Correctness
Source: Townhall
To hear Democrats talk about black people is a mix of arrogance, racism and more condescension than could be crammed into the Grand Canyon. What do I mean by that? It’s pretty simple, really: the left simultaneously insists black people are perpetual victims with economic hardship thrust upon them by “systemic racism” and the sole builders of everything good and superior to everyone else. None of it is true, but all of it is designed to manipulate. Democrats, even black Democrats, treat the average black American like they’re a child and special; neither is true. They’re just people, like everyone else.

Makerfield: a tale of two social-media histories
Topic: Political Correctness
Source: Spiked Online
This by-election has revealed the warped morals of the cancel-culture left. So another Green Party candidate has stood down to spend more time with his anti-Semitism allegations. Yesterday, a mere nine hours after being announced as the Greens’ man in the Makerfield by-election, Chris Kennedy withdrew, citing ‘personal and family reasons’. Shortly after, The Times revealed Kennedy had shared social-media posts suggesting the firebombing of Jewish-run ambulances in Golders Green was a ‘false flag’ – staged, presumably, by those sneaky Zionists.
