Teachers Can’t Plaster Walls With Pride Flags, Second Circuit Rules
Topic: Children and Family

A Biden appointee affirmed schools can put reasonable limits on employees using classroom space to promote sexual ideology to kids. Three teachers at Connetquot Central High School in Bohemia, New York, challenged school officials who asked them to remove “pride flags” and “pride stickers” in a classroom and on classroom doors. A three-judge panel, led by lesbian Biden-appointee Judge Alison Nathan, ruled that the stickers and flags amounted to government speech. “Under Garcetti v. Ceballos…and its progeny, when public employees’ speech ‘owes its existence’ to their ‘professional responsibilities,’ the Government—their employer—can control the content of that speech without implicating their First Amendment rights,” Judge Nathan (pictured) wrote.

The ban will take effect in the 2027-2028 academic year. “Glad to see the Board of Governors ratify the prohibition on illegal alien students at our colleges and universities,” he wrote on social media. “Always need to put Floridians — and Americans — first.” Republican Lt. Gov. Jay Collins also voiced his support on social media. “Florida’s public universities are for students who are here legally. Period,” he wrote. “Florida taxpayers should not be expected to subsidize opportunities for people who broke our laws to come here.” [Ed: just get gov. out of education and problems like taxpaid education for 'illegals' will not arise.]

Mount Sinai Health System reached a deal with the Trump administration to end gender-affirming care for minors in order to resolve a federal investigation into the hospital’s practices, the U.S. Department of Justice announced Friday.
According to the announcement, Mount Sinai will also pay a “monetary penalty” and will allocate $2 million to provide free medical services to patients suffering from what the DOJ described as the “harmful consequences” of care they received at Mount Sinai as children. The DOJ said it was investigating potential violations of federal law by Mount Sinai but did not share the conclusions of that investigation. Gothamist previously reported that Mount Sinai stopped providing services such as puberty blockers and hormone therapy to trans and gender-non-conforming children earlier this year, but the health system never made a formal announcement.

The United Nations has decided that Britain has not grovelled enough. After years of toppled statues, boarded-up war memorials and official lectures about "colonialism," a UN human-rights committee now wants the country that ended the Atlantic slave trade to fill its public squares with statues of "people of African descent," The globalist body also suggests Britain should rewrite what children are taught, and treat historic slavery as a live brief for migration policy and hate-speech enforcement.

World Now Has More Seniors Than Young People-for the First Time In History

The world will only get grayer as more time goes by, according to a U.S. Census Bureau report. The study, called An Aging World: 2025, found that global demographics are rapidly changing, with the world becoming older fast. In fact, for the first time in history, the share of people older than 65 surpassed the number of people five or younger last year. "This is the first time this 'crossing' of the youngest and oldest age groups has happened in human history and is projected to drastically widen in the coming years," the report states. "The share of the population aged 65 and over is projected to nearly double, from 10.5 percent (about 1 in 10 people) in 2025 to 19.6 percent (about 1 in 5 people) by 2060." The report also notes that because women statistically live longer than men, the share of older women as a part of the population will rise.

Sinema Is Officially Eligible for NC's 'Homewrecker' Law

Former US Sen. Kyrsten Sinema can be sued under North Carolina's homewrecker law over her relationship with a member of her security detail, a judge ruled on Friday. Sinema has acknowledged having a romantic relationship with Matthew Ammel but argued that she can't be sued in North Carolina because she has no connection to the state. US District Judge David A. Bragdon rejected that argument, noting that nine text messages she'd sent Ammel while he was in the state give North Carolina jurisdiction over her, per the AP. Bragdon found it implausible that she was unaware of Ammel's whereabouts when she texted him.

...while Golden State natives pay big. California is paying tens of millions of dollars for illegal immigrants to attend college — infuriating Golden State natives struggling to pay their tuition. California provides illegal migrant students with state-funded grants and other financial aid, while thousands can also benefit from in-state tuition rates, waivers for community college fees and subsidized loans. Approximately 102,000 illegal migrants were attending California colleges and universities as of 2023, the largest share of any state in the US.

Twist in College Admissions: Students Don't Apply, Get In
Topic: Violence Against Women
Source: Wall St. Journal [Reader Friendly]
More colleges are sending acceptance letters to teens who didn't fill out an application. In turn, the colleges—which are seeking ways to attract more students amid broader financial headwinds—gain exposure to prospects who may never have heard of them otherwise. They then woo the young people into enrolling. Proponents call the approach a solution for both sides. “Instead of a student applying to the institution, the institution applies to them,” said Angel Perez, chief executive of the National Association for College Admission Counseling. “It’s a way for students not to have to jump through hoops in order to get into college.”

Unusual Industry Booms in China: 'Outsourced Children'

As elderly population surges, younger companions offer help, for a fee In China's graying society, an odd new job is emerging: stand-in son or daughter. The Washington Post reports that startups are renting out young adults to visit elderly clients whose real children often live and work far away—a legacy of the one-child policy and a rapidly aging population. For a fee—ads range from about $30 to $90 per three-hour session—these "outsourced children" chat, help with phones, tag along to doctor visits, and try to ease what one worker describes as older people's loneliness and fear of death. The South China Morning Post notes that the trend went viral last year, thanks to burly young men dressed in black visiting nursing homes.

House Bill Aims to Block Mandated Shelter and Treatment for the Homeless. Democratic lawmakers introduced the “No Homeless Detention Centers Act” (H.R. 10231) on Wednesday, September 2, 2026. The bill, sponsored by Congressman Maxwell Alejandro Frost (D-FL) and other Democrats, would prohibit HUD funds from being used to force people experiencing homelessness into shelters or other facilities. The bill identifies some reasons that lead to homelessness, such as economic hardships and domestic abuse. Some of the other reasons listed in the bill are a set of concerns (some plausible and some questionable) and a list of identity groups. Males are not listed as an identity group, even though males account for...

Will the Supreme Court Hear the 'Case About Swinging Dicks'?
Topic: Porn, Prostitution, and Sexual Freedom
Source: Reason
Olympus Spa—an all-female, nude establishment in Washington state—sued after the government said it had broken the law by refusing to accept a preoperative transgender woman. But the case is more complicated than it looks. "This is a case about swinging dicks," wrote Judge Lawrence VanDyke of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit in March. "You may think that swinging dicks shouldn't appear in a judicial opinion. You're not wrong. But as much as you might understandably be shocked and displeased to merely encounter that phrase in this opinion, I hope we all can agree that it is far more jarring for the unsuspecting and exposed women at Olympus Spa—some as young as thirteen—to be visually assaulted by the real thing."

Nobody wants effeminate-looking men waving pom-poms as NFL cheerleaders
Topic: Political Correctness
Source: The Washington Examiner
Like much of what the NFL does anymore at the crossroads of public relations and cultural warfare, the nation’s preeminent sports league has once again taken the liberal, progressive (though I would argue they should truly be called regressive) side in its cultural warfare campaigns. A social media video of a male cheerleader for the NFL’s Philadelphia Eagles received quite the reaction online. As an Eagles fan, this is nothing new since the Eagles’ first male cheerleader debuted in 2019. Nevertheless, the response was as one would expect: People don’t want this. I have no doubt that male NFL cheerleaders are the warped brainchild of a liberal, Democratic, socialist ideologue who kneels at the altar of diversity, equity, and inclusion.

Why So Many Young Men Are Giving Up on Work

Sydney psychiatrist Tanveer Ahmed on why men who quit work aren't depressed but demoralised, and how mental health labels became a rival source of status and dignity. My guest today is Tanveer Ahmed. He’s a psychiatrist and the author of three books, Fragile Nation, In Defence of Shame and The Exotic Rissole. He’s just written a piece for Quillette about something he sees in his consulting room and in the data at the same time: men who have quietly stopped working and who have stopped looking for work. Not unemployed exactly, but demoralised. It’s a distinction that turns out to matter enormously, and we get into why.
