<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/arizona" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Arizona</a> prosecutors unsealed charges against 18 people this week for their alleged roles in trying to subvert the results of the 2020 presidential election.
Only 11 names have been revealed thus far as seven additional indicted co-conspirators have not yet been served, meaning that their names are redacted for the time being.
Those who were named include for Arizona Republican Party Chairwoman Kelli Ward, state Sens. Jake Hoffman and Anthony Kern, Chief Operating Officer of Turning Point Action Tyler Bowyer, Nancy Cottle, James Lamon, Robert Montgomery, Samuel Moorhead, Lorraine Pellegrino, Gregory Safsten, and Michael Ward.
The Washington Post <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/2024/04/24/arizona-2020-election-charges-meadows-giuliani-ellis/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a> that the seven others who were indicted include former Trump White House chief of staff Mark Meadows, attorneys Rudy Giuliani, Jenna Ellis, John Eastman and Christina Bobb, campaign adviser Boris Epshteyn and former campaign aide Mike Roman.
The defendants were charged with a range of felony crimes, including Conspiracy, Fraudulent Schemes and Artifices, Fraudulent Schemes and Practices, and Forgery.
Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes said in a video statement that the election in the state was &#8220;free and fair&#8221; and that &#8220;the people of Arizona elected President Biden.&#8221;
&#8220;Unwilling to accept this fact, the defendants charged by the state grand jury, allegedly schemed to prevent the lawful transfer of the presidency,&#8221; she claimed. &#8220;After the general election on November 3, 2020, the defendants and other unindicted co-conspirators raised false claims of widespread voter fraud in Arizona to pressure elections officials to change the outcome of a transparent free and fair democratic election. Those efforts ultimately failed when officials stood firm, followed their statutory duties, and officially certified Arizona&#8217;s election on November 30, 2020.&#8221;
&#8220;The defendant Republican presidential electors allegedly plotting with additional defendants, then voted for Mr. Trump and Vice President Pence on December 14, 2020, falsely claiming to be the duly elected and qualified electors for President and Vice President of the United States from the state of Arizona,&#8221; she claimed. &#8220;These defendants deceived the citizens of Arizona by falsely claiming that those votes were contingent only on a legal challenge that would change the outcome of the election. In reality, the defendants intended that the false votes for Trump and Pence would encourage Vice President Pence to reject the certified Biden-Harris electors’ votes regardless of the result of any legal challenge.&#8221;

Mayes noted that none of the legal challenges brought forth in the state were successful and said that &#8220;when combined with the six other states where Republican electors sent in uncertified votes for Trump-Pence, the defendants wanted Pence to declare Mr. Trump the outright winner of the election or to send the vote back to friendly legislators that would have certified Trump-Pence as the winner of the election.&#8221;
&#8220;That scheme failed when Vice President Pence upheld the rule of law and accepted all certified Biden-Harris votes on January 6, 2021,&#8221; she added. &#8220;A state grand jury made up of everyday regular Arizonans has now handed down felony indictments for all 11 Republican electors as well as several others connected to this scheme. These charges include fraud, forgery, and conspiracy. These charges are class two, four and five felonies. These are serious indictments.&#8221;

President <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/joe-biden" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Joe Biden</a> is saying the quiet part out loud.
During remarks at an event in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday, Biden appeared to state an instruction on the teleprompter that he was not meant to read aloud.
He was talking about his vision for a second term when Biden said, &#8220;Imagine what we can do next. Four more years. Pause.&#8221;
Biden looked as if he was squinting at the teleprompter before flashing a smile as people in the audience broke into a chant of &#8220;Four more years!&#8221;
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
BIDEN, reading from his teleprompter: &quot;Four more years? Pause?&quot;
It&#39;s all completely staged. <a href="https://t.co/vqkIt0SSTF">pic.twitter.com/vqkIt0SSTF</a>
&mdash; RNC Research (@RNCResearch) <a href="https://twitter.com/RNCResearch/status/1783181170751992121?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 24, 2024</a></blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
The apparent flub did not go unnoticed, as it was shared on X by a Republican National Committee (RNC) account, gathering more than 1.6 million views as of press time.
Among those to mock Biden was Richard Grenell, who served as a U.S. ambassador and acting director of national intelligence during the Trump administration.
&#8220;Joe Biden said the word &#8216;pause&#8217; because it was written in his teleprompter,&#8221; Grenell <a href="https://twitter.com/RichardGrenell/status/1783239408642404811" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> on X. &#8220;It was there to tell him to pause before speaking again. But he read the word out loud.&#8221;

The slip may be a small one, but it is just the latest in a long series of gaffes that have fed concerns about Biden&#8217;s mental fitness and ability to keep serving as commander in chief at the age of 81.
Findings from an Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research that were published in March <a href="https://apnews.com/article/biden-state-of-union-mental-capacity-trump-reelection-66d8784586d21f30885d8153f949510c" target="_blank" rel="noopener">showed</a> 63% of U.S. adults were not very or not at all confident in Biden&#8217;s mental capacity for the presidency.
The survey, by comparison, found 57% of U.S. adults said the same about Trump, who is also running another White House campaign this year at the age of 77.
When questioned about concerns about his age, Biden sought to offer reassurances by saying, <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/03/07/biden-state-of-the-union-age/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">&#8220;Watch me.&#8221;</a>
For those who did not see the clip and only looked at the transcript of Biden&#8217;s remarks on Wednesday, they would not get the impression that he read aloud a part of the teleprompter that he should not have.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
That is because, as the RNC account pointed out, the transcript shows that part of what Biden said as &#8220;(inaudible)&#8221; despite the audio being very clear.
&#8220;Biden’s handlers want to pretend this highly embarrassing moment didn’t happen,&#8221; the account said on X.

The Palestine Solidarity Committee at <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/harvard-university" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Harvard University</a> was suspended from campus activities – and responded to that suspension by setting up a &#8220;Gaza solidarity encampment&#8221; in defiance of the school administration.
The official X account for National Students for Justice in Palestine shared video of the student protesters swarming Harvard Yard — which was roped off in advance of protests that took place over the weekend.
&#8220;Incredible video from @HarvardPSC,&#8221; the caption read. &#8220;Just yesterday, Harvard University placed the Harvard Palestine Solidarity Committee (PSC) under suspension. Less than 24 hours later, students launched a Gaza solidarity encampment. THE MORE THEY TRY TO SILENCE US THE LOUDER WE WILL BE.&#8221;

The group, according to <a href="https://www.thecrimson.com/article/2024/4/23/harvard-psc-suspended/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Harvard Crimson</a>, had been ordered as of Monday to &#8220;cease all organizational activities for the remainder of the Spring 2024 term,&#8221; and students who defied that order were reportedly threatened with possible expulsion.
The PSC had been placed on probation in March, The Crimson reported, adding that school administrators had gone through with the suspension after the group had failed to &#8220;register&#8221; a Friday protest and had &#8220;violated protest guidelines regarding responsible use of space.&#8221;
&#8220;The organization will not be recognized and will not have access to university benefits and services during this time, including but not limited to use of campus space and appropriate use of the Harvard name,&#8221; the email informing the PSC of their suspension stated. &#8220;If the organization continues to operate and commits additional violations during this suspension, the organization risks permanent expulsion, as provided in the Resource Guide.&#8221;

The PSC released a statement in response to the suspension, claiming that they had endured &#8220;months of administrative repression, harassment and stalking by our own peers, and intimidation from right-wing politicians and donors.&#8221;
&#8220;After standing idly by as pro-Palestine students faced physical and cyber harassment, death threats and rape threats, and racist doxxing, Harvard has now decided to dismantle the only official student group dedicated to the task of representing the Palestinian cause,&#8221; the group complained.

On Wednesday, the Heisman Trust officially reinstated the former USC star’s 2005 Heisman Trophy, along with sending a replica to USC, <a href="https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/40014492/reggie-bush-heisman-trophy-returned">ESPN</a> reported.
Bush will also now be invited to participate in all Heisman Trophy ceremonies starting this year. In 2010, Bush gave up his famed trophy due to sanctions against the university, which included that Bush had received <a href="https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/reggie-bushs-2005-heisman-trophy-reinstated-as-former-usc-trojans-star-wins-long-battle/">improper benefits</a> while he was a student-athlete between 2003 and 2005.

“In 2005, Bush gained more than 2000 yards from scrimmage and scored 18 touchdowns,” it added. “He received 784 first-place votes, the fifth-most in Heisman Trophy history, while leading<a href="https://twitter.com/uscfb"> USCFB</a> to a national title berth. Welcome back to the Heisman Family, Reggie!”

Bush also reacted to the news and told <a href="https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/40014492/reggie-bush-heisman-trophy-returned">ESPN</a> in a statement, &#8220;Personally, I&#8217;m thrilled to reunite with my fellow Heisman winners and be a part of the storied legacy of the Heisman Trophy, and I&#8217;m honored to return to the Heisman family. I also look forward to working together with the Heisman Trust to advance the values and mission of the organization.&#8221;
President of the Heisman Trophy Trust, Michael Comerford, said that &#8220;we are thrilled to welcome Reggie Bush back to the Heisman family in recognition of his collegiate accomplishments.”
&#8220;We considered the enormous changes in college athletics over the last several years in deciding that now is the right time to reinstate the trophy for Reggie,” he added. “We are so happy to welcome him back.&#8221;

The decision from the Heisman Trust came after it said it underwent a &#8220;deliberative process&#8221; to monitor what it called the &#8220;fundamental changes in college athletics&#8221; in which rules that have allowed &#8220;student athlete compensation&#8221; to become &#8220;an accepted practice&#8221; appear &#8220;here to stay,” ESPN noted.
In 2021, NCAA rules changed to allow athletes to be compensated for their name, image, and likeness, as previously <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/new-ncaa-policy-allows-student-athletes-to-benefit-from-their-name-image-and-likeness">reported</a>.
Following the change in rules, professional football players threw their support behind Bush to get his 2005 trophy back. One such athlete was former Texas A&amp;M star Johnny Manziel.
On Wednesday, Manziel took to social media and <a href="https://x.com/JManziel2/status/1783127654599991675">wrote</a>, “Thank you to the Heisman Trophy for doing what’s right and welcoming a storied member of our history back into the fold.”
“There were many voices throughout this process that stood on the table for Reggie simply because of the kind of human being he is,” he added. “I look forward to being on that stage with you this December Reggie Bush you deserve it.”

The Arizona state House voted on Wednesday to repeal the 160-year-old <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/abortion" target="_blank" rel="noopener">abortion</a> ban that is slated to go into effect after the state&#8217;s Supreme Court upheld the law that protects unborn babies from nearly all abortions.
Three Republicans — Reps. Matt Gress, Justin Wilmeth, and Tim Dunn — joined with 29 Democrats to advance the legislation in a 32-28 vote, AZ Central <a href="https://www.azcentral.com/story/news/politics/legislature/2024/04/24/arizona-legislature-again-consider-repeal-1864-abortion-ban/73419886007/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a>. Republican Rep. Barbara Parker passionately argued for her colleagues to vote against the repeal, saying that while critics of the law call it &#8220;archaic,&#8221; repealing it would send the state back in time and does not value the life of unborn children.
“I can hear their silent screams and with my voice, I vote no,&#8221; Parker said.
After the repeal passed, Rep. Gress moved that the bill be sent to the state Senate and returned unamended so it could go to the Democratic governor&#8217;s desk as soon as possible, according to AZ Central. House Speaker Ben Toma then removed Gress, along with Democratic Rep. Oscar De Los Santos, from a key budget committee following the vote.
Following the state House&#8217;s passage of the repeal, the Arizona Senate must act to send the legislation to Democratic Governor Katie Hobbs&#8217; desk. The 1864 abortion ban could go into effect on June 8, but if it&#8217;s repealed, the state will revert to the 15-week limit that was signed by Republican Governor Doug Ducey in 2022, CNN <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2024/04/24/politics/arizona-house-abortion-law/index.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a>.
The state Senate, which is also controlled by Republicans, introduced its own bill to repeal the 1864 law last week after two Republicans joined all Democrats to approve a motion introducing the legislation. The Arizona Senate could vote on the repeal as soon as next Wednesday, NBC News <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/arizona-abortion-ban-lawmakers-repeal-rcna149181" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a>.
The state House&#8217;s move to repeal the abortion law came after two failed attempts by lawmakers in the body to repeal the 1864 law as Arizona Republicans juggle the contentious issue in a major election year. Arizona&#8217;s abortion law has become a national controversy as even former President Donald Trump has urged the state&#8217;s lawmakers &#8220;to remedy what has happened.&#8221;

After the state Supreme Court&#8217;s decision to allow the abortion law to go into effect, pro-life groups such as Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America and LiveAction celebrated the ruling and its protection of unborn children.

A group of centrist <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/house-democrats" target="_blank" rel="noopener">House Democrats</a> called on President <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/joe-biden" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Joe Biden</a> and <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/congress" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Congress</a> to take steps toward securing the U.S.-Mexico border on Wednesday.
Reps. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (D-WA), Jared Golden (D-ME), Mary Peltola (D-AK), Vicente Gonzalez (D-TX), and Don Davis (D-NC) — all of whom have 2024 races rated &#8220;<a href="https://www.cookpolitical.com/ratings/house-race-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noopener">toss up&#8221; or &#8220;lean Democrat,</a>&#8221; according to The Cook Political Report — released a <a href="https://twitter.com/AndrewSolender/status/1783209478415921277" target="_blank" rel="noopener">statement</a> after Biden <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/biden-signs-foreign-aid-tiktok-bills-into-law" target="_blank" rel="noopener">signed a $95 billion foreign aid package</a> into law.
&#8220;Our national security interests don&#8217;t stop at our physical borders. That is why we voted to send more weapons to Ukraine for its fight against Russia,&#8221; they said. &#8220;The lesson of Pearl Harbor must not be forgotten: appeasement invites aggression against us. As Speaker [Mike] Johnson stated last week, we would rather send &#8216;bullets than American boys.'&#8221;

Beyond defending U.S. allies, the group said they &#8220;strongly agree&#8221; with the National Border Patrol Council on the view &#8220;that Congress and the President must act and bring order to the Southern border.&#8221;
&#8220;That is why we also voted for H.R. 3602 on Saturday,&#8221; they said, referring to border security legislation that <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/senate-passes-95-billion-foreign-aid-package-with-possible-tiktok-ban" target="_blank" rel="noopener">failed to pass</a> as lawmakers considered a bill series for the foreign aid package, &#8220;and why we all voted last month for $19.6 billion for Border Patrol so that it could ramp up its efforts to secure the border.&#8221;
The Democrats said they were &#8220;calling today on President Biden to use the authority given the executive by Congress to immediately reimplement&#8221; a section of U.S. Code geared toward returning migrants to Mexico pending court proceedings.
And they called on leaders in both the House and Senate to &#8220;to pass legislation to give Border Patrol back the expulsion authority that expired last year, alluding to the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/mayorkas-says-border-patrol-encounters-down-by-half-since-title-42-expired" target="_blank" rel="noopener">pandemic-era Title 42</a>, which allowed authorities to quickly turn away migrants at the border on public health grounds.
With a presidential election coming up in November, <a href="https://news.gallup.com/poll/611135/immigration-surges-top-important-problem-list.aspx" target="_blank" rel="noopener">border security</a> as well as <a href="https://news.gallup.com/poll/611135/immigration-surges-top-important-problem-list.aspx" target="_blank" rel="noopener">immigration</a> have become top issues for Americans as the backlog of asylum seekers and migrants living in the U.S. is projected to reach <a href="https://www.axios.com/2024/03/02/data-biden-border-crisis-immigration-8-million-detention" target="_blank" rel="noopener">more than 8 million</a> by October.
Hardline Republicans who opposed the foreign aid package — which seeks to boost U.S. allies such as Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan — lashed out, in part, because of a dearth of provisions geared toward alleviating the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/border-crisis" target="_blank" rel="noopener">border crisis</a> in the final product.
The statement from the House Democrats included a quote that Brandon Judd, president of the National Border Patrol Council, <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/nothing-more-backwards-than-us-funding-ukraine-border-security-but-not-our-own-conservatives-say" target="_blank" rel="noopener">gave to Fox News last weekend</a>.
&#8220;We are beyond disappointed that the House would give aid to secure the borders of foreign countries but gave nothing to allow the Border Patrol to secure the safety of the United States,&#8221; Judd said.
&#8220;There&#8217;s nothing more backwards,&#8221; he added, &#8220;I wouldn&#8217;t have even expected taxpayers&#8217; dollars. They could have given us policy, and that would have been enough.&#8221;

&#8220;The Daily Show&#8221; took a bite out of President <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/joe-biden" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Joe Biden&#8217;s</a> recent claim that his uncle Ambrose Finnegan — &#8220;Uncle Bosie&#8221; — might have been eaten by cannibals after his plane went down during World War II.
Biden <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/kjp-defends-bidens-dubious-cannibals-story-it-was-a-really-proud-moment-for-him" target="_blank" rel="noopener">told the story</a> during a campaign stop in Pennsylvania last week, saying that &#8220;Uncle Bosie&#8221; had been a part of the Army Air Corps in the Pacific when he was &#8220;<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/bidens-claim-that-his-uncle-was-eaten-by-cannibals-might-actually-be-his-most-plausible-tall-tale-yet" target="_blank" rel="noopener">shot down</a>&#8221; over Papua New Guinea.
&#8220;He flew those single-engine planes as reconnaissance over war zones, and he got shot down in New Guinea. They never found the body because there used to be, there were a lot of cannibals, for real, in that part of New Guinea,&#8221; Biden said at the time.
Both the <a href="https://dpaa-mil.sites.crmforce.mil/dpaaProfile?id=a0Jt000001nzWi4EAE" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency</a> and Papua New Guinea Prime Minister James Marape tell different stories, however. According to the Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency, Finnegan&#8217;s plane was not shot down at all, but suffered an engine failure and had to ditch over the water. Marape issued a statement after Biden&#8217;s comments went viral, saying, &#8220;President Biden’s remarks may have been a slip of the tongue; however, my country does not deserve to be labeled as such. World War II was not the doing of my people; however, they were needlessly dragged into a conflict that was not their doing.&#8221;

The segment began with Chieng noting that the Manhattan hush-money trial of former President Donald Trump left the campaign trail wide open for Biden — and then they cut to Biden&#8217;s story about &#8220;Uncle Bosie.&#8221;
&#8220;You’re going to lose the election,&#8221; Chieng responded afterward.
&#8220;Look, at some point, we all get to an age when we confuse our own life story with the plot of &#8216;Indiana Jones,'&#8221; Klepper argued.
&#8220;Even if this story was true, Americans are in no position to criticize how anyone else eats, okay? These cannibals eat people … yeah, well, you know what? We eat Subway sandwiches to lose weight,&#8221; Chieng riffed.
&#8220;Would a cannibal even eat people out of a wreckage?&#8221; Klepper wondered. &#8220;I mean, that’s like their version of eating roadkill &#8230; Biden apologized to the Papua New Guinea prime minister by inviting him to a dinner with Pete Buttigieg, who will be served over rice with balsamic reductions.&#8221;

A pro-Palestinian passenger berated Democratic New York City Mayor <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/eric-adams" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Eric Adams</a>, slamming him over his support for Israel, as he flew home from Miami after speaking at the 2024 Concordia Americas Summit.
Adams was in Florida to speak about the migrant crisis and the impact on local communities when border states transported illegal immigrants to self-described &#8220;sanctuary cities&#8221; like New York City — but the topic quickly turned to Israel when he boarded a plane to head for home.

&#8220;F*** you! You support the genocide in Palestine! There are homeless people all over New York, yet you’re always partying!&#8221; the woman shouted, accusing Adams of paying New York City police officers instead of funding initiatives that would help the homeless.
&#8220;Why are you even in Miami? You know there are people being arrested there? People are homeless in New York. People cannot afford food. You keep cutting the education budget so that you can fund the police. That’s all you care about, funding the police. Everything is underfunded because of you.&#8221;

Adams recently issued a public statement on the anti-Semitic protests at Columbia University — which have gotten so heated that the University president switched the campus to <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/demand-a-refund-critics-slam-columbia-univ-as-anti-israel-protests-force-hybrid-classes-until-years-end" target="_blank" rel="noopener">remote and hybrid classes</a> for the remainder of the semester &#8212; warning students that police &#8220;will not hesitate to arrest&#8221; protesters if they deem it necessary.
&#8220;I am horrified and disgusted with the antisemitism being spewed at and around the Columbia University campus — like the example of a young woman holding a sign with an arrow pointing to Jewish students stating &#8216;Al-Qasam’s Next Targets,&#8217; or another where a woman is literally yelling &#8216;We are Hamas,&#8217; or another where groups of students are chanting &#8216;We don’t want no Zionists here&#8217; — and I condemn this hate speech in the strongest of terms,&#8221; Adams said.

Former “Biggest Loser” trainer <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/jillian-michaels" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jillian Michaels</a> said the data “irrefutably” shows that trans-identifying male athletes should be banned from competing against girls and women in sports if fairness is paramount.
During the celebrity fitness trainer’s recent appearance on “<a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13342963/Celebrity-trainer-Jillian-Michaels-trans-athletes-banned-girls.html">Fox and Friends</a>,” Michaels told the hosts that it doesn’t matter when a biological male starts taking puberty blockers, it’s biology that males are stronger and faster.
“You&#8217;ve got two competing goals in sports,” Michaels said. “One is inclusion, which everybody can understand and get on board with.”
“However, the second goal that&#8217;s in direct opposition with inclusion in this instance is going to be a fair competition,” she added. “If your overriding priority is going to be fairness over inclusion, you&#8217;ve got to turn to the data.”
“And the data irrefutably shows that biological males are 10 to 30 percent stronger, faster, have better endurance, better aerobic capacity across the board,” Michaels continued.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">

She said that the data is clear that things like cross-sex hormones do not change what we already know about males and females.
“If we defer to the studies &#8230; they show that even on puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones, the decrease in physical performance is quite trivial,” Michaels said. “That&#8217;s what the data says.”

She then gave the hosts an example, citing grip strength of “a biological male transgender female” and a “biological female transgender male.”
Michaels said that the trans-identifying male&#8217;s “grip strength was 17 percent greater than the female on testosterone and puberty blockers.”
Michaels&#8217; appearance comes days after <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/grotesque-betrayal-of-students-critics-blast-bidens-new-title-ix-regulations-championing-gender-identity" target="_blank" rel="noopener">President Joe Biden</a>’s administration announced a massive revision to Title IX &#8212; a policy that was originally enacted to protect women and girls &#8212; to now to protect trans-identifying people.
On Friday, Biden and Education Secretary Miguel Cardona revised the law enacted in 1972, which, in <a href="https://www2.ed.gov/about/offices/list/ocr/docs/t9-final-rule-summary.pdf">summary,</a> now “clarifies that sex discrimination includes discrimination based on sex stereotypes, sex characteristics, pregnancy or related conditions, sexual orientation, and gender identity.”
Former Senior Counsel at the U.S. Department of Education Sarah Parshall Perry blasted the move and said, “Under the new rule, girls and women will no longer have any sex-separated bathrooms, locker rooms, housing accommodations, or other educational programs. Women’s sports are likely endangered, too.”
“Any education institution, including many private schools that receive even nominal federal funding, will be affected by this rule,” she added. “The rule also erases other important protections, like due process protections for students accused of sexual misconduct, free speech protections for students and teachers who don’t want to use ‘preferred pronouns,’ and parents’ right to know if their child is in the process of a gender identity ‘social transition’ at school.”
Nicole Neily, president of Parents Defending Education, echoed Perry&#8217;s sentiment, calling the move “grotesque,” and accused the White House of capitulating “to extremists in his party, sacrificing the First Amendment on the altar of Title IX and disregarding clearly established Supreme Court precedent on the definition of sexual harassment.”

‘Irrefutably’: Celebrity Trainer Suggests Trans-Identifying Male Athletes Should Be Banned From Competing Against Women

Title IX

Transgender Athletes

The Supreme Court is considering a challenge to Idaho&#8217;s abortion ban this week, the first time the court has considered whether a state abortion ban is constitutional since the demise of Roe v. Wade.
The court <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2024/04/24/supreme-court-abortion-five-questions-00153965" target="_blank" rel="noopener">heard</a> oral arguments on Wednesday in a case known as Moyle v. United States, which deals with whether Idaho emergency room doctors are required by federal law to perform abortions to stabilize pregnant women in medical crises.
Idaho bans all abortions except to save the life of the mother or in cases of rape and incest. Doctors who perform abortions can face criminal penalties, including up to five years in prison and the loss of their medical license.
The Biden administration is arguing that Idaho&#8217;s abortion ban flies in the face of a federal law, the 1986 Emergency Medical Treatment &amp; Labor Act, known as EMTALA, which requires hospitals receiving federal funds to provide patients with stabilizing care. Hospitals that flout the law are at risk of losing their Medicare funding.
The federal law requires hospitals to care for people with an “emergency medical condition,” including pregnant women in situations where “the absence of immediate medical attention could reasonably be expected to result in” putting “the health of the woman or her unborn child” in “serious jeopardy.”
The administration claims the federal law should override Idaho&#8217;s abortion ban since, in some cases, stabilizing care will mean an emergency room abortion.
Meanwhile, Idaho officials counter that the Biden administration is simply trying to undermine the state&#8217;s abortion ban. Idaho’s attorney general, Raúl Labrador, <a href="https://www.supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/23/23-726/301167/20240222152045736_Main%20Document%2023-727.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">alleged</a> in a brief that the administration is attempting to use federal law to turn Idaho emergency rooms into “abortion enclaves in violation of state law.”
The administration&#8217;s interpretation of the federal law would make it easier for women to obtain medically unnecessary abortions, state officials argued. One of Idaho&#8217;s lawyers <a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/news/supreme-court-idaho-abortion-ban-federal-law-emergency-care/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> a pregnant woman could potentially claim that her mental health required her to get an abortion.
The case is being closely watched since the justices&#8217; decision could potentially have broad implications for the more than a dozen states that have enacted strict state abortion bans.
On Wednesday, justices appeared divided on the case mainly along ideological lines. The court currently has a majority of six conservative justices.
However, there appeared to be a split along gender lines as well. The court&#8217;s four female justices, including conservative Amy Coney Barrett, pushed back on Idaho&#8217;s claim that its abortion ban supersedes the federal law.
Barrett&#8217;s <a href="https://www.cnn.com/politics/live-news/abortion-supreme-court-idaho-04-24-24/h_28e59414f20bb545e081e85aecc69ccf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">criticism</a> was less about the abortion issue itself and more about how much discretion doctors have to make decisions in emergency medical situations. She appeared frustrated with Idaho&#8217;s attorney and accused him of “hedging” in his answers.
The Biden administration initially sued Idaho in August 2022. The case wound its way up to the 9th Circuit appeals court, which upheld a lower court&#8217;s ruling allowing doctors to perform abortions in emergency situations while the case continues.

The Idaho case is the second major abortion case the high court has considered this month. The court is also handling a case involving the availability of the abortion drug mifepristone. At issue is the Food and Drug Administration&#8217;s (FDA) recent moves to make mifepristone more accessible, including allowing it to be taken later in pregnancy and mailed without an in-person doctor&#8217;s visit.

Rep. <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/house-democrat-remains-hospitalized-more-than-a-week-after-cardiac-episode" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Donald Payne Jr.</a> (D-NJ), a Newark mainstay who served in the seat once held by his father, has died at the age of 65, Governor Phil Murphy and Payne&#8217;s office announced on Wednesday.
&#8220;Tammy and I are deeply saddened by the tragic passing of our friend, and a steadfast champion for the people of New Jersey, Congressman Donald Payne, Jr.,&#8221; Murphy <a href="https://nj.gov/governor/news/news/562024/approved/20240424a.shtml" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> in a statement revealing the lawmaker&#8217;s death.
It was previously known that the six-term congressman had been experiencing health problems and was <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/house-democrat-remains-hospitalized-more-than-a-week-after-cardiac-episode" target="_blank" rel="noopener">hospitalized</a> earlier this month. Payne&#8217;s office said in a <a href="https://twitter.com/AndrewSolender/status/1783199331211751695" target="_blank" rel="noopener">statement</a> following Murphy&#8217;s announcement on Wednesday that Payne had &#8220;experienced a physical accident at home on April 6, 2024, which necessitated hospitalization.&#8221;
As Payne received treatment &#8220;for this health issue, he faced medical complications due to diabetes and high blood pressure that led to subsequent cardiorespiratory arrest. Despite the dedicated efforts of the medical staff to treat him and improve his health, they were unable to prevent his passing unfortunately,&#8221; the statement added.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
&#8220;With his signature bowtie, big heart, and tenacious spirit,&#8221; as Murphy put it, Payne spent years of his life in public service working as a union worker, Newark City Council president, and member of the Essex County Board of Commissioners. Payne <a href="https://www.politico.com/blogs/on-congress/2012/11/donald-payne-jr-replacing-late-father-is-sworn-in-149729" target="_blank" rel="noopener">won</a> election in 2012 to take the House seat that had been held by his father, Donald Payne Sr., until he died of colon cancer at age 77 after <a href="https://whyy.org/articles/donald-payne-jr-son-of-late-congressman-wins-10th-district-seat/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">25 years in Congress</a>.
&#8220;It was my great honor to work side-by-side with Donald to build a stronger and fairer New Jersey, and we will hold his memory close to our hearts as we build upon the Payne family’s deep legacy of service in advocating for the communities they served so dearly,&#8221; Murphy said in his statement.
“Donald’s love will live on in the homes of his neighbors in Newark, who now have access to safe drinking water, and in the good-paying jobs he helped create for his brothers and sisters in labor,&#8221; he added. &#8220;And it will live on in his wife Beatrice, and their three children, Donald III, Jack, and Yvonne, who were the pride of his life. Our heartfelt prayers are with his family during this difficult time.&#8221;
Payne&#8217;s death comes as primary voting is underway in his state. The New Jersey Globe <a href="https://newjerseyglobe.com/congress/donald-payne-will-win-the-primary-posthumously-heres-how-democrats-will-pick-his-replacement/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a> that Payne, whose name is on the ballot, will likely win unless a write-in campaign defeats him. County officials from his party can call a convention and pick a new nominee after the results are certified and a vacancy is declared.
In terms of House business, Payne&#8217;s absence could have an impact on close votes. The chamber is already narrowly divided, with Republicans holding a slim majority. It was not immediately clear whether there will be a special election to fill the vacancy for the remainder of the two-year term won by Payne in 2022.
Members of Congress reacted to the news of Payne&#8217;s death, including Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) and Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA).

New Jersey House Democrat Donald Payne Jr. Dies At 65

New Jersey

The man prosecuting Richard Allen for the murders of two teenage girls in Delphi, Indiana, back in 2017 is now investigating a former police chief who investigated alternate suspects for the crime.
Carroll County Prosecutor Nicholas McLeland filed a motion on Tuesday indicating he believes that former Rushville Police Chief Todd Click’s personnel files will present credibility questions and discredit his theory of the murders of 13-year-old Abby Williams and 14-year-old Libby German, the Journal &amp; Courier <a href="https://www.jconline.com/story/news/crime/2024/04/23/delphi-prosecutor-targets-ex-rushville-chief-todd-glick-investigation-odinist-richard-allen/73424767007/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a>. Click’s investigation forms the basis of Allen’s defense, pointing to alternate suspects the defense team believes actually committed the crime.
McLeland is looking to obtain Click’s employee records, implying they will show Click has a history of credibility issues. His motion includes a subpoena for Rushville’s current police chief to hand over the records, but so far, Special Judge Fran Gull has not signed the subpoena.
Click’s investigation focused on three individuals who may have been involved in the teens’ murders, including one man who allegedly told his sister that he was at the crime scene and described details not released to the public.
Click’s investigation was summarized in a <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/attorneys-for-delphi-murder-suspect-claim-young-teens-were-killed-by-white-nationalist-pagan-group-in-ritual-sacrifice" target="_blank" rel="noopener">136-page memorandum</a> filed by Allen’s attorneys in September, which argues the three men were Odinists, a pagan Norse religion taken over by white nationalists.
While such a claim sounds outrageous, Click was so concerned about the information used to arrest Allen that he obtained an attorney to help him draft a letter to McLeland. This letter was only shared with defense attorneys after it became clear they would most likely talk to Click – more than four months after the letter was sent to the prosecutor.
In addition to not turning over the letter, law enforcement also allegedly withheld an 85-page compilation of reports from Click and the other officers who investigated the white supremacist angle and several videotaped statements that all supported Allen’s innocence.
Through Click’s investigation, names of alternate suspects were given to Delphi law enforcement no later than February 2018, the attorneys wrote in September.
The defense attorneys pointed to members of the cult as alleged suspects, whom The Daily Wire will not be naming since they have not been charged with any crimes. One of these named individuals’ social media posts contained images that mimicked the runes found at the crime scene, even though such images have never been released to the public, according to the defense. The individual allegedly also posted numerous “easter eggs” on social media that pointed to his involvement in the crime, including a recreation of the crime scene involving two women posing as dead with sticks over their bodies, just like the actual crime scene. This same individual also seemingly taunted police on social media, the defense claims.
One further tie to the victims is that this man’s son was allegedly “dating” the young victim, Abby.
Police cleared this individual as a suspect within 30 days of the murders, even with this evidence, the defense argues.
This individual’s ex-wife also allegedly told police that he and another man in the Odinists had a falling out in February 2017 after conducting a ritual in the woods, near a river. The main alternate suspect lived very near to where the girls’ bodies were found, according to the defense’s filing. This ex-wife also allegedly told police that her ex-husband and “his people” killed the girls because one of their mothers was “mixing” with people who weren’t of the same race.

This individual was also tied to others who allegedly confessed to the crime. One of these individuals allegedly told his sister that he was involved in the crime and included details of the crime scene that were never released to the public. According to the court documents, this man was also questioned but denied involvement. According to a state trooper who dropped him off at his home, this individual allegedly returned to the trooper’s vehicle and asked if he would still be in trouble if his spit was found on one of the victims, saying he could explain it away. This individual also told another one of his sisters that he spit on one of the victims, according to the defense.
This individual and a fourth man provided shaky alibis to police for their whereabouts at the time of the murder, with contradictory stories, Allen’s defense attorneys contend.
