A Tech Company Posted a Job for ‘Whites Only.’ Here’s What Happened Next.

/0 Comments/in , , /by

A Virginia-based tech company is being ordered to pay $38,500 for posting a “whites only” job advertisement.

According to The Hill, in March 2023, minority-owned federal contractor Arthur Grand Technologies Inc. advertised a Salesforce Business Analyst and Insurance Claims position based in Dallas, Texas. Reportedly, the posting restricted candidates to “only US born citizens [white] who are local within 60 miles from Dallas, TX [Don’t share with candidates].”

The job posting “drew outrage” on social media, causing the Department of Justice to open up an investigation into the company. When interrogated, the company claimed the posting was done by an employee working for its subsidiary in India. Per The Hill, the company insisted it “denied approving” the posting.

The Justice and Labor departments have fined the company a civil penalty of $7,500 and also ordered the company to pay $31,000 overall to 31 people who complained about its posting.

“It is shameful that in the 21st century, we continue to see employers using ‘whites only’ and only US born’ job postings to lock out otherwise eligible job candidates of color,” Kristen Clarke, assistant attorney general of the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division, said in a statement.

Biden Enlists Jan. 6 Police Officers to Campaign in Swing States

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden’s reelection campaign is going all-in on presenting former President Donald Trump as a threat to democracy as polling continues to show Biden sinking in swing states.

Biden’s campaign has enlisted the assistance of three police officers who worked at the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021, to further its latest strategy, CNN reports.

Sgt. Aquilino Gonell, Officer Harry Dunn, and Officer Danny Hodges will accuse Trump of posing a threat to democracy in key swing states, beginning in Nevada and Arizona.

Dunn is fresh off a primary defeat in a campaign for a congressional seat from Maryland. His campaign failed after troubling allegations of domestic abuse resurfaced, as well as reports that he was suspended without pay from the U.S. Capitol Police (USCP) in 2012 after improperly handling his department-issued firearm. . .

Biden’s enlistment of the officers is his latest move to advance the political narrative that Trump is somehow a threat to democracy. (Read more from “Biden Enlists Jan. 6 Police Officers to Campaign in Swing States” HERE)

‘Unhinged’: The Biden Campaign Held a Press Conference and It Was a Train Wreck

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Biden campaign held a press conference in New York City Tuesday morning, right down the street from the ongoing trial of former President Donald Trump. It was a total disaster.

The star of the train wreck was actor Robert DeNiro, who dramatically claimed Trump would destroy New York, the United States and eventually the world. He also announced he was officially joining the Biden campaign after walking to the lectern in a cloth mask.

Then, the campaign refused to answer questions.

The Tide Is About To Turn Against Gender Activists Abusing America’s Kids

/0 Comments/in , /by

It’s easy to look back on the great horrors of history and wonder how they could have happened in the first place. From genocides to eugenic movements to ritualistic abuses, modern human beings wonder how people could go along with such travesties to begin with.

Historically, human minds haven’t been changed in these circumstances by facts or data or logic. It’s not often an ultra-compelling argument or nicely-presented chart that wins over hearts and minds. It’s real, raw, emotional connection.

That’s why Detrans: True Stories of Escaping the Gender Ideology Cult, a new book out Tuesday by former Daily Caller News Foundation reporter Mary Margaret Olohan, could prove to be a pivotal work in the battle for the soul of this nation on the issue of child mutilation — or, as its proponents call it, “gender-affirming care.”

Olohan’s book features in-depth interviews with “detransitioners” — that is, individuals who thought they were transgender, went through some or all phases of transitioning and then later came to regret it — detailing their experiences. It’s one of the most powerful books anyone will ever read. Each lie that is told to these victims, life-altering drug that is pushed onto them and mutilating procedure that is performed on them, leading to a life of depression and regret, will make the reader’s heart sink and trigger a shudder.

Don’t look away, though. These are real things happening to real people. Parents being told their children will kill themselves if they don’t transition. Kids waking up from surgery with the breasts removed. Losing basic bodily functions after procedures that their doctors didn’t tell them about — every horrific detail actually happened.

WATCH: Harrison Butker, Kansas City Chiefs Kicker, Inspires with Powerful Speech at Catholic School

/1 Comment/in , /by

Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker delivered a powerful speech last weekend at the “Courage Under Fire” gala fundraiser for Regina Caeli Academy.

Butker began by expressing gratitude to attendees for supporting Regina Caeli Academy. He acknowledged friends and families present, highlighting his excitement about the organization’s future and its potential to shape future Catholics.

“Thank you to Charlie McKinney for joining us on this journey and for your immediate impact,” Butker said. He also praised Nicole Juba for her years of dedication to RCA and thanked Alissa Walsh for her tireless efforts in organizing the event. Butker further recognized Canon Commons and Father Acres for their support, noting their influence on his personal growth.

Addressing the theme of the night, “Courage Under Fire,” Butker reflected on the recent backlash he faced over his Catholic beliefs. “The theme now feels providential after what we’ve witnessed these past weeks,” he said. Despite the initial wave of hate, Butker noted that many eventually supported his right to religious freedom.

Butker shared his experience of becoming more polarizing as he spoke about his Catholic faith. “It’s a decision I’ve consciously made and one I do not regret,” he said. Emphasizing the importance of truth and charity, Butker encouraged others to trust in God’s providence.

“Our love for Jesus should never be outweighed by our desire to be loved by the world,” he stated. Butker expressed his reliance on Jesus Christ rather than public opinion, drawing inspiration from the courage of saints and martyrs.

He urged attendees to embrace their faith courageously, even in the face of opposition. “Being disliked and mischaracterized by some is nothing compared to finding yourself in a lion’s den,” he remarked.

Joe Biden Visits Hunter’s Ex Before She Likely Testifies in Gun Trial

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden visited Hallie Biden, the former wife of Beau Biden and Hunter Biden’s former lover, before she will likely testify in Hunter’s gun trial, the White House press pool reported Sunday.

The White House said Joe Biden’s visit with his daughter-in-law had nothing to do with Hunter’s pending gun trial. It claimed instead the visit was to commemorate the upcoming ninth anniversary of Beau’s passing from cancer.

Hallie is expected to testify as a witness in Hunter’s gun trial. A 2018 police report showed she tossed a gun owned by Hunter in a dumpster behind a grocer, a source told Fox News. . .
Hunter refused in July to accept a plea deal laid out by prosecutors in the case after negotiations fell apart as a result of Judge Maryellen Noreika’s scrutiny of a “diversion agreement.”

The original “sweetheart” plea deal afforded Hunter the ability to plead guilty for not paying taxes on more than $1.5 million in income in 2017 and 2018, receiving probation rather than jail time. In addition, Special Counsel David Weiss devised a separate diversion agreement that gave Hunter immunity from potential future charges, including a provision to potentially wipe a felony gun violation from his record.

AMassachusetts man was severely injured in a gruesome bear attack at a Wyoming national park, which he described as the “most violent” plight in his life. However, the Army veteran miraculously survived the bear mauling by an astonishing stroke of luck.

/2 Comments/in , , /by

Florida is the shark bite capital of the world according to a report from the state’s Museum of Natural History and Florida University — with the area around Daytona Beach having the highest concentration of attacks anywhere.

The International Shark Attack File identified Volusia County as the world’s hotspot for sharks preying on humans with 351 unprovoked attacks identified since the earliest records they could find, which date back to 1837.

Florida, which has the longest coastline in the contiguous United States, has seen a whopping 928 attacks in that time frame, followed by Hawaii with 195, then California with 138 and South Carolina with 118. . .

The shark attack file found data for 1,640 total attacks in the US going back almost 200 years, which leads the table in terms of the country which has suffered the most attacks.

The US is followed by Australia with 706 then South Africa which has seen 262 attacks, from all types of sharks combined. (Read more from “Shark Attack Capital of the World Named — And It’s in This U.S. State” HERE)

Here’s How the Biden Administration Is Reportedly Handling Iran Nuclear Deal

/0 Comments/in , /by

In case there’s any doubt how weak President Joe Biden is on dealing with Iran, the Wall Street Journal reported in the early morning hours of Monday that “Biden Administration Presses Allies Not to Confront Iran on Nuclear Program.” Not only is the United States reportedly not going to tell Iran off for their nuclear program, but is urging our true allies to do the same.

As the report mentions:

BERLIN—The Biden administration is pressing European allies to back off plans to rebuke Iran for advances in its nuclear program, even as it expands its stockpile of near-weapons-grade fissile material to a record level, according to diplomats involved in discussions.

The U.S. is arguing against an effort by Britain and France to censure Iran at the International Atomic Energy Agency’s member-state board in early June, the diplomats said. The U.S. has pressed a number of other countries to abstain in a censure vote, saying that is what Washington will do, they said.

U.S. officials deny lobbying against a resolution.

…

U.S. officials say that material could be converted into weapons-grade enriched uranium in a matter of days. It would then be enough to fuel three nuclear weapons.

Some U.S. officials say they fear Iran could be more volatile as the country moves toward elections for a new leader after the death of President Ebrahim Raisi in a helicopter crash earlier this month. The Biden administration has long said it is seeking a diplomatic solution on Iran’s nuclear program.
