Fla. Law School May Be Sued for Renaming in Honor of Notorious Race Hustler

(Jacob Bruns, Headline USA) St. Thomas University in Miami–Dade County recently renamed its law school after notorious civil-rights-activist attorney Benjamin Crump, opening the school up to potential lawsuits, the Floridian Press reported.

Several law students say that they would not have applied if they knew that the school would be renamed after a radical, according to the report.

One unnamed student strongly disagreed with Crump’s “woke” and “racially-driven agenda,” and is “adamantly considering filing a legal action against the school.”

Crump, who received his degrees from Florida State University, allegedly paid $1 million to have the school renamed after him and raised some $10 million in additional capital from celebrities including actor Will Smith and funk musician George Clinton, TMZ reported.

The controversy follows another recent case of backlash against the woke renaming of a law school. The descendants of T.C. Williams, a 19th-century slave-owning donor to the University of Richmond, said the school owed them $51 million over its decision to remove the benefactor’s name.

Disgruntled St. Thomas students, meanwhile, may argue that the renaming of the law school in Crump’s honor will affect future employment opportunities, especially given the polarizing nature of the school’s new name.

According to Crump’s website, the lawyer and his team have grifted for years by stoking racial division and collecting money for the families of deceased criminals.

Specifically, they secured a confidential settlement for the family of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin.

Martin was fatally shot during a 2012 physical altercation with George Zimmerman, a neighborhood watch captain who had confronted him for cutting through a residential area late at night. His death helped spark the Black Lives Matter movement.

“Ben Crump represented the family in reaching a confidential wrongful-death settlement with the homeowner’s association in the community in which he was killed,” crowed Crump’s website.

Crump, who penned a book titled Open Season: Legalized Genocide of Colored People, also represented George Floyd’s family, securing a $27 million settlement for the Minneapolis martyr, who was killed while in police custody in May 2020, spawning months of race riots.

“George Floyd, an unarmed Black man, was killed by Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin when Chauvin attempted to restrain Mr. Floyd by kneeling on his neck for nine minutes,” said Crump’s website. “In March of 2021, the city of Minneapolis awarded a $27M settlement to the Floyd family, represented by Attorney Crump and his team.”

The law school bearing his name was rated in the bottom quarter of all U.S. law schools, placing 147 out of 192 according to the most recent U.S. News and World Report rankings.

‘Daily Show’ Co-Creator Reveals Sour Grapes about Gutfeld’s Late-Night Success

Editor’s note: Video contains profanity.

(Jacob Bruns, Headline USA) After a six-year-long ratings slide for the once untouchable Daily Show, its co-creator, Lizz Winstead, recently lashed out at new “king of late night comedy” Greg Gutfeld and his 2.5 million Fox News viewers, Mediaite reported.

During an appearance on Sirius XM radio’s left-wing “Dean Obeidallah Show,” Winstead seemed to have been set off by Fox’s Super Bowl commercial celebrating Gutfeld’s ascension to the top of the ratings.

“He makes jokes about s**t that I care about, which is gross,” Winstead complained. “I think that whole situation’s gross.”

Winstead’s attack called to mind other sour-grapes leftists, like failed 2016 presidential candidate Hillary Clinton—whose loss was credited, in part, to her having referred to Trump supporters as “deplorables.”

Calling Gutfeld the “king of s***ty f**king people,” Winstead seethed over her disconnect with the present cultural Zeitgeist, insisting that Gutfeld was not funny while lumping him in with red-pilled libertarian podcaster Joe Rogan and former President Donald Trump.

“He ain’t funny to me, but we see that there’s an audience out there for s**t like that,” she said. “There’s an audience out there for s**t like Joe Rogan, there’s an audience out there of f**king s**ty people—70 million people voted for Trump.”

Trump received 73.6 million votes, according to the final tally in the 2020 election, eclipsing former President Barack Obama’s re-election record by more than 7 million.

Gutfeld has similarly carved out a position for himself in late-night comedy, surpassing the likes of Stephen Colbert, Jimmy Kimmel and Jimmy Fallon.

At its peak, the Daily Show averaged around 1.5 million, with more recent figures landing around 363,000 viewers in September 2021.

A Feb. 7 ratings report showed it placing 103rd in its time slot with about 288,000 viewers, just above the Discovery Channel’s Ice Cold Catch and a college basketball matchup between Marquette University and the University of Connecticut.

Gutfeld’s longtime side-man, George “Tyrus” Murdock, said the show’s willingness to explore a variety of viewpoints was key to its success.

“We bring our own thoughts [and] jokes to the table, and no one is ever asked to say something or go with the ‘tribe’ mentality,” he told Headline USA in an exclusive 2021 interview celebrating Gutfeld’s first emergence as a ratings leader.

“I think that’s our greatest strength—nothing ever forced,” he added. “I’m not a party-first guy; I’m a Republican, but I’m a free thinker. You can support ideas people from across the aisle.”

But don’t expect to see Winstead as one of the show’s guest panelists.

“Like Fox News, those people are going to laugh at s**t we think is f**ked up,” she said.

“The bottom line is, ‘Do I want them as my audience?” she continued. “No. I would never want to go on that show. It would never benefit me in any way.”

Mich. State Med School Uses ‘Holistic’ Admissions to Push Diversity

Mich. State Med School Uses ‘Holistic’ Admissions to Push Diversity

(Joshua Paladino, Headline USA) The Association of American Medical Colleges stated that Michigan State’s College of Human Medicine has a “holistic admissions policy,” a new euphemism that means the college prioritizes women, non-white, and queer applicants, the Washington Examiner reported.

The AAMC conducts a Diversity, Inclusion, Culture, and Equity survey every year, and medical schools can submit answers to have their woke credentials ranked.

MSU’s medical school earned an 81% on the AAMC’s exam, according to information that Do No Harm, a medical watchdog group, got through a Freedom of Information Act request.

“MSUCOM’s self-reported responses on the DICE Inventory show it has instituted the majority of DEI-related policies and strategies pushed by the AAMC,” Do No Harm program manager Laura Morgan told the Washington Examiner.

To earn an 81%, MSU’s medical school had to pursue “substantial DEI efforts” that would ensure a “a diverse class of students.”

Not only has MSUCOM implemented woke admissions policies that prioritize sexual and racial characteristics above intelligence and competence, but the medical school has “undertaken efforts to integrate diversity, inclusion, and equity within the curriculum as a key learning outcome.”

“Michigan taxpayers who help fund MSUCOM deserve to have future doctors who are learning how to take care of their medical problems, and must insist that the school stops its descent into wokeness in order to regain their trust,” Morgan said.

In a current job listing for the Michigan State College of Osteopathic Medicine, the applicant is asked to provide a statement on diversity, equity, and inclusion that demonstrates “past experiences and contributions to inclusive excellence.”

“The Michigan State University College of Osteopathic Medicine’s public job posting requiring a diversity statement represents an example of how DEI advocates are forcing educators to swear allegiance to their agenda,” Morgan said. “MSUCOM needs to return to recruitment and hiring standards that encourage academic excellence instead of screening for agreement with woke ideology.”

Peer Reviewed Study: Animals Avoid Minority Neighborhoods Because of Racism

Peer Reviewed Study: Animals Avoid Minority Neighborhoods Because of Racism

(Ezekiel Loseke, Headline USA) Very serious academics have concluded that wild animals avoid minority neighborhoods because of systemic racism.

This pathbreaking study was conducted by biologists Colin Garroway of the University of Manitoba and Chloé Schmidt from the German Centre for Integrative Biodiversity Research, according to The Daily Mail.

The study bears the title “Systemic racism alters wildlife genetic diversity.” The study includes a section titled “Ecological and Evolutionary Effects of Systemic Racism.” It also includes the section, “Effects of Racial Segregation on Genetic Variation.”

The study discovered a difference between animals in minority neighborhoods and white neighborhoods.

“We detected consistent relationships between the genetic composition of wildlife and the racial composition of neighborhoods,” the study reported. “Species tended to have larger effective population sizes, higher genetic diversity, and were less genetically differentiated in neighborhoods with higher proportions of White residents.”

The study was published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, a peer reviewed journal.

The study claims that the lack of woodland creatures creates negative effects on the mental and physical health of the residents of those neighborhoods.

The cause of the crippling absence of animals, according to the study, is racism.

The study argues that redlining drove out all the animals.

Redlining is the practice of prohibiting certain minorities from purchasing homes in certain areas. It has been illegal in America since 1968.

These scientists, of course, were not content reporting on the facts, but also veered into the political realm.

The report suggested that reforms be made to city planning to increase the access of minority communities to woodland critters.

The study also suggested increasing ‘racial diversity’ in the field of ecology and evolution. More diversity is needed, they say, to prevent ‘blind spots’ in research, like the one this very important study addresses.

Baby Saved by Kentucky’s ‘Baby Box’

Baby Saved by Kentucky’s ‘Baby Box’

(Headline USA) Kentucky has seen its first infant anonymously dropped off at one of its “baby box” safe surrender locations.

At a news conference Friday, Safe Haven Baby Boxes founder and CEO Monica Kelsey said the child was dropped off within the last seven days at a Bowling Green Fire Department location, declining to be more specific to protect anonymity. She said fire department staff was able to tend to the child in less than 90 seconds.

The child is the 24th in the country to be surrendered at one of more than 130 baby boxes and drawers the organization has established across nine states.

“This baby is healthy. This baby is beautiful. This baby is perfect,” said Kelsey, who added that officials are now looking to place the child in “a forever home.”

Gov. Andy Beshear signed a law in 2021 that allows the use of baby boxes for children less than 30 days old. The law requires the boxes to be located at police stations, fire stations or hospitals that are staffed 24 hours a day. It also requires equipping them with a notification system to alert the first responders on site that a child has been placed inside the box.

Kentucky now has 16 baby box locations. The Bowling Green box had been operational for less than two months. Safe Haven Baby Boxes are installed in the exterior wall of a fire station or hospital. An exterior door automatically locks when a newborn is placed inside, and an interior door lets a medical staff member secure the baby from inside the building.

“This child was legally, safely, anonymously and lovingly placed inside of this Safe Haven Baby Box, and that speaks volumes about the parent,” Kelsey said.

Republican state Rep. Nancy Tate, who sponsored the legislation, told WNKY-TV that it’s her goal to have at least one box in every Kentucky county.

“It makes my heart full to know how supportive this project is,” Tate said.

US Shoots Down Fourth ‘Unidentified Object’ in Eight Days

US Shoots Down Fourth ‘Unidentified Object’ in Eight Days

(Headline USA) Joe Biden ordered an “unidentified object” be shot down with a missile by U.S. fighter jets Sunday over Lake Huron, and it was believed to be the same one tracked over Montana and monitored by the government beginning the night before, U.S. officials said.

The downing came after earlier objects over Alaska and Canada were shot out of the sky.

It was extraordinary that four objects were shot out of the sky by U.S. fighter jets in eight days. Pentagon officials have said they don’t know when the last shootdown of an unknown or unauthorized object over U.S. territory occurred.

The latest object brought down was first detected on Saturday evening over Montana, but it was initially thought to be an anomaly. Radar picked it up again Sunday hovering over the Upper Peninsula of Michigan and it was going over Lake Huron.

U.S. and Canadian authorities had restricted some airspace over the lake earlier Sunday as planes were scrambled to intercept and try to identify the object. The latest object was octagonal, with strings hanging off, but had no discernable payload. It was flying low at about 20,000 feet, according to one senior U.S. official.

U.S. officials were still trying to precisely identify the other two objects blown from the sky by F-22 fighter jets over the past two days. They also were working to determine whether China was responsible as concerns escalated about what Washington said was Beijing’s large-scale aerial surveillance program.

The object shot down Saturday over Canada’s Yukon was described by U.S. officials as a balloon significantly smaller than the balloon — the size of three school buses — hit by a missile Feb. 4 while drifting off the South Carolina coast after traversing the country. A flying object brought down over the remote northern coast of Alaska on Friday was more cylindrical and described as a type of airship.

Both were believed to have a payload, either attached or suspended from them, according to the officials who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity to discuss the ongoing investigation. Officials were not able to say who launched the objects and were seeking to figure out their origin.

Eight days ago, F-22 jets downed the large white balloon that had wafted over the U.S. for days at an altitude of about 60,000 feet.

Then, on Friday, North American Aerospace Defense Command, the combined U.S.-Canada organization that provides shared defense of airspace over the two nations, detected and shot down an object near sparsely populated Deadhorse, Alaska.

Later that evening, NORAD detected a second object, flying at a high altitude over Alaska, U.S. officials said. It crossed into Canadian airspace on Saturday and was over the Yukon, a remote territory, when it was ordered shot down by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

NFL Playing the ‘Black National Anthem’ Before the Superbowl While Funding Woke Organizations

NFL Playing the ‘Black National Anthem’ Before the Superbowl While Funding Woke Organizations

(Ezekiel Loseke, Headline USA) The National Football League, in its latest demonstration of Anti-American woke virtue signaling, is going to play the Black National Anthem before the Superbowl while still spending big on woke causes.

The NFL has arranged for the Black National Anthem to be played before the Superbowl, according to Breitbart News. Sheryl Lee Ralph, is slated to perform “Lift Every Voice and Sing,” also known as the Black National Anthem.

Ralf, who was called “a national treasure,” by Mashable, gushed about the opportunity.

“Never in my wildest dreams did I ever think that I would be singing at the Super Bowl,” she told reporters.”

Country singer Chris Stapleton will sing the real national anthem, and Babyface, an R&B performer, will sing “America the Beautiful.’”

This woke virtue signaling is just the latest demonstration of the NFL’s willingness to reverently kneel before the woke mob.

In 2020, after George Floyd died of a fentanyl overdose while resisting arrest, the NFL committed itself to donating a quarter of a billion dollars to social justice programs over ten years, according to NFL.com.

The NFL credited one of its former players turned activist for the program.

“We listened to our players,” The NFL said. “We needed to listen more, we needed to move faster.”

“We heard them and launched a social justice platform because of what Colin was protesting about.”

These donations have gone towards organizations working to defunding the police, according to Fox News.

The Community Justice Exchange has been receiving grants from the NFL since 2020.

“The Community Justice Exchange is working towards a world without prisons, policing, prosecution, surveillance or any form of detention or supervision,” according to its website.

The NFL is also funding organizations that post bail for suspected criminals.

The NFL supports “75+ local community-based bail and bond funds, working to end money bail and pre-trial detention at the local level and immigration detention at the national level,” according to the NFL’s “Inspire Change” website.

Fla. Rep. Anna Paulina Luna Wrecks WaPo and Its Hit Piece on Her

Fla. Rep. Anna Paulina Luna Wrecks WaPo and Its Hit Piece on Her

(Dmytro “Henry” Aleksandrov, Headline USA) A GOP Florida congresswoman destroyed the Washington Post‘s hit piece on her, saying that it is error-filled and “incredibly racist,” with Bezos‘s paper being forced to issue a correction — for claiming the lawmaker was once a Democrat.

Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, R-Fla., said that the paper misrepresented basic facts about her life and falsely suggested Luna used her Hispanic heritage to get elected, according to the New York Post.

“Holy s— the Washington Post just tried to claim my dad was never incarcerated, left out comments from my mom, said I was a registered Democrat, and did not report a convo they had with a former roommate, and interviewed ‘family’ I don’t talk to,” she tweeted on Friday after the article was published.

“This is comical.”

Luna then went on Fox News to say that WaPo tried to “undercut my Hispanic heritage.”

“It’s awful how they treat minorities. And the fact is, is that their undertone of their article was incredibly racist. The Washington Post is composted and they should do better,” she said.

“The racist undertone of the article is pretty mind-blowing. When you see how they treat minority conservatives, this isn’t about reporting the truth.”

The paper then issued a correction later on Friday.

“A previous version of this story incorrectly stated that Anna Paulina Luna was registered as a Democrat in Washington state in 2017 based on an erroneous voter registration database,” the paper wrote at the top of its article.

“Washington state only requires voters to declare their party affiliation when they cast a ballot in a presidential primary.”

“Luna’s roommate in Missouri was the only person interviewed by police after a break-in at their apartment; she was not the only person mentioned in the police report,” the paper added.

Luna also accused the paper of coming after her because of her tough questions during a Tuesday hearing for former Twitter censor Yoel Roth.

“I went after Yoel Roth and Twitter for exposing them for being joint state actors. I do believe they are trying to attack my credibility.”

Records Show Soros and Then-Sen. Obama Funded Ukraine Biolab

(Dmytro “Henry” Aleksandrov, Headline USA) A Ukrainian biolab revealed that it received funding from the leftist “SOROS Foundation” in a company document.

The Mechnikov Anti-Plague Research Institute in Odesa, Ukraine is located at the spot of an old secretive Soviet biological weapons plant, according to the exclusive report from the National File. The institute is currently under the banner of the Ukraine Ministry of Health. According to records, in 2005, then-senator Barack Obama announced a deal to fund the Institute that handles deadly microbes and works on developing vaccines.

The document is marked as a product by the Institute, with Institute staff listed as contacts. The Institute is funded by “SOROS Foundation.”

Leftist billionaire George Soros’s Open Society Foundations is officially known as the “Soros Foundation” in some parts of the world including at the foundation’s offices in Almaty in Kazakhstan, Chisinau in Moldova and Bishkek in Kyrgyzstan.

According to the Irish Times, there were safety problems and problematic handling of deadly microbes at the Odessa location. In 2005, during the Bush administration, NBC News reported on safety concerns.

“The Institute has strong collaborative research connections with organizations from around the world, and it receives financial support from a variety of international organizations including STCU, SOROS Foundation, Civilian Research and Development Foundation, NEDA and the University of London,” the document stated.

The United States government admitted to the existence of the biolabs in Ukraine, with the San Antonio-based Department of Defense studying human tissue and RNA material exclusively from Caucasian Russians.

In 2005, the U.S. State Department records show that the U.S. Department of Defense made an agreement with Ukraine to fund biolabs to conduct research supposedly to stop the construction of bioweapons.

The U.S. Embassy in Ukraine acknowledged on Apr. 22, 2020, that the U.S. Department of Defense “works with the Ukrainian Government to consolidate and secure pathogens and toxins of security concern in Ukrainian government facilities, while allowing for peaceful research and vaccine development.”
