MAYHEM IN MEMPHIS: Lunatic Who Livestreamed Shooting Rampage in Police Custody

A crazed gunman was arrested after carrying out multiple shootings Wednesday night in Memphis – some of which he reportedly live streamed on Facebook, police said.

Ezekiel Kelly, 19, who has a violent criminal record, terrorized the city for hours and led police on a wild chase before his eventual arrest at about 9:30 p.m., according to authorities and multiple reports. Charges against him have not been announced.

Memphis police first warned the public to stay away from Kelly, whom they said was “armed and dangerous” in a 7 p.m. social media post.

The department reported two shootings within minutes of one another around 4:35 p.m., though it was unclear if Kelly was suspected in those crimes.

A man was shot dead at a gas station on East Parkway around 4:35 p.m. and one minute later, a woman was shot and critically injured on Norris Road near I-240, News3 reported. (Read more from “Lunatic Who Livestreamed Shooting Rampage in Memphis in Police Custody” HERE)

Teacher Sent to Jail After Refusing to Use ‘Gender-Neutral’ Pronouns

Enoch Burke, a school teacher in Ireland, was banned from his school over his refusal to use the pronoun “they” for a student, then arrested for returning Monday, according to the Irish news website RTE.

Wilson’s Hospital School suspended Burke from teaching while he underwent a disciplinary process for refusing to use the preferred pronouns of a student who identifies as transgender, which he said would violate his Christian beliefs, and a court issued an injunction temporarily barring him from teaching, according to RTE. Burke returned to the school anyways, and he was arrested and taken to prison.

“I am a teacher and I don’t want to go to prison,” Burke said, according to the New York Post. “I want to be in my classroom today, that’s where I was this morning when I was arrested … I love my school, with its motto Res Non Verba, ‘Actions not words,’ but I am here today because I said I would not call a boy a girl.”

He was initially suspended Aug. 24, and the court order came down Friday after he continued attending school anyways, according to RTE. He defied the court order blocking him from teaching Monday and told the court that it would violate his conscience to obey it.

Burke said in court that he loves his students and the subjects he teaches and that he didn’t want to go to prison, but he couldn’t violate his conscience by participating in the child’s gender transition process, according to RTE.

School Administrator Says Teachers That Don’t ‘Embrace Diversity’ Would Not Be Hired

A New York City charter school administrator was caught on camera saying teachers that don’t “embrace” sexual orientation and “diversity at all levels” would not be hired at his specialized schools.

Todd Soper, a Grade K-4 Assistant Principal at Neighborhood Charter Schools, was secretly recorded by Project Veritas talking about the schools’ onboarding practices in a clip released by the controversial outlet Tuesday.

Soper, filmed drinking a beer at a bar, told a man wearing a hidden camera that any applicant that answered a “Diversity-Equity-Inclusion” question wrong was an “automatic not hire.”

“If they [candidates] say that diversity is about — if they say something that lends itself to be colorblind, which could happen, like, ‘Oh, it’s like, you know, like everyone is equal.’ Those things that are well intentioned statements, but they’re missing the depth of understanding of how the intersections of our identity live out in the world. So, that person wouldn’t get hired,” Soper reportedly said.

Students at NCS’s two locations in Harlem and the South Bronx were also taught to embrace “identities that are based on ethnicity, skin tone and gender,” the administrator unknowingly told the outlet.

Nearly 1 in 4 Democratic Voters Believe Men Can Get Pregnant: Poll

Nearly one in four Democratic voters believe men can get pregnant, according to a new poll.

The online survey, conducted by WPA Intelligence from August 22-25, found 22% of Democrats agreed with the statement, “Some men can get pregnant.” The percentage rose when only including women, and a whopping 36% of white, college-educated female Democrats concurred.

“Overall, few Americans think men can get pregnant,” said WPAi Managing Director Conor Maguire. “But with 36% of a core Democratic constituency (college-educated white Democratic women) and one out of five Democrat voters believing this, one can see why Democratic leaders coddle the radical gender theory movement.”

The poll underscores the Left’s growing embrace of a radical gender theory that biological sex does not dictate gender. People born female can later “identify” as men while retaining the ability to reproduce; hence the claim “men” can become pregnant. A recent Pew Research poll found that about 5% of young adults in the U.S. believe it’s possible to identify into a gender that differs from their biological sex.

The American Civil Liberties Union, the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and numerous liberal media outlets, including CNN and MSNBC, are increasingly opting for terms such as “pregnant people,” or “birthing parent,” instead of “women” when referencing pregnancy, fertility and abortion.

Report: Steve Bannon to Be Indicted, Will Surrender to N.Y. Authorities

Steve Bannon reportedly faces a new set of criminal charges and will surrender to New York authorities on Thursday.

According to a report Tuesday evening in The Washington Post, the ex-adviser to former President Donald Trump likely will be indicted in state court for conduct similar to a federal charge for which Mr. Trump pardoned him.

“The precise details of the state case could not be confirmed Tuesday evening,” the Post acknowledged.

But, citing “people familiar with the situation,” the Post reported that the charges relate to fraud counts in the “We Build the Wall” case.

A spokesperson for Mr. Bannon told the Post that the “phony charges” from New York were “nothing more than a partisan political weaponization of the criminal justice system.” (Read more from “Report: Steve Bannon to Be Indicted, Will Surrender to N.Y. Authorities” HERE)

‘Cowboys for Trump’ Co-founder Removed From Office Over Involvement in Jan. 6 Capitol Riot

A New Mexico state judge used a 14th Amendment provision Tuesday to order the removal of an Otero County official, who co-founded Cowboys for Trump, from public office due to his presence at the U.S. Capitol building on January 6, 2021.

Judge Francis Mathew of the 1st Judicial District Court in Santa Fe, New Mexico, disqualified Otero County Commissioner Couy Griffin from his post effective immediately under Section Three of the 14th Amendment. The clause prohibits those sworn an oath to uphold the Constitution from holding federal or state office if they “have engaged in insurrection or rebellion.”

U.S. officials ratified the provision initially meant to prevent members of the Confederacy from serving in public office shortly after the Civil War.

Mathew wrote in a 49-page decision that Griffin “engaged in … the attack on the United States Capitol and surrounding planning, mobilization, and incitement were an ‘insurrection’ against the Constitution of the United States” just before Congress was scheduled on January 6 to certify the results of the 2020 presidential election.

Oz Says He Would Have Voted to Certify 2020 Election, Acquit Trump

Pennsylvania GOP Senate nominee and television personality Dr. Mehmet Oz said Tuesday that had he been in the Senate on Jan. 6, he would have voted to certify the results of the 2020 presidential election but would have voted to acquit former President Donald Trump in the aftermath.

Oz made the comments at a Philadelphia press conference alongside Sen. Pat Toomey (R-PA), whose seat Oz is seeking. Toomey did vote to convict Trump on the article of impeachment tied to his efforts to overturn President Joe Biden’s victory.

Oz told NBC that he “would not have objected to” certifying the election results in 2020.

“By the time the delegates and those reports were sent to the U.S. Senate, our job was to approve it, which is what I would have done,” Oz said.

There’s Something off About This Tweet From Joe Biden

There is nothing believable about this Joe Biden tweet. Some random 51-year-old woman says the economy is going so well, thanks to Biden’s leadership, that she and her husband can now save up for a house. The image screams ‘photoshopped,’ but it’s a continuation of the liberal trend on social media that only serve to reconfirm their biases. You’ve all seen the equally inauthentic ‘my son, daughter, or loved one said’ tweets in which interactions that never happened end up attacking a conservative or Trump policy. Liberals who say their four-year-old kids are intimate with inside-the-ballpark activities within the DC Beltway is the dead giveaway that nothing in the post is accurate. And now, Joe Biden has joined the game. He’s a little late but still comical in how these posts never pass the smell test.

Attorney Harmeet Dhillon pointed out that all this message proved, if honest, that Biden voters are financially illiterate. What should also give you pause is how consumer and credit card debt has soared to its highest levels in years. No one is saving in a manner that could allow for a home purchase.

Foreign Nuclear Secrets Among Docs Found in Trump Raid: Report

In a stunning leak from the Department of Justice, a report on Tuesday disclosed information about top secret documents that were reportedly among the files seized by FBI agents at Donald Trump’s Florida resort last month.

Citing sources “familiar with the search,” The Washington Post said the documents detailed a foreign government’s military defenses and nuclear capabilities and can only be viewed by a select group of top officials.

The disclosure was published Tuesday, a day after the former president’s legal team won a request for a special master to review the documents over his lawyers’ concerns the feds would “impugn, leak, and publicize select aspects of their investigation.”

The foreign government described in the highly sensitive documents was not revealed by the sources but the news reportedly heightened concerns about the more than 100 classified documents found at the property and hundreds of others voluntarily recovered from Mar-a-Lago — some of which detail top-secret US operations that even senior national security officers were not aware of, according to the report.

Some special-access programs detailed in the documents were only authorized to be viewed by the president, some Cabinet members, and a couple dozen other government employees on a need-to-know basis, the article said.
