Supreme Court Turns Away Appeals From Schools in Title IX Cases

Supreme Court Turns Away Appeals From Schools in Title IX Cases. School boards can’t hide anymore. We hope they get it good.

The United States Supreme Court will not hear an appeal from a Virginia school board arguing that it should not be held liable under Title IX for an alleged sexual assault of a classmate by another classmate on a school trip.

On Monday, the court rejected the appeal from the Fairfax County School Board. The case will go to trial in federal court in Alexandria, Virginia. 

According to the Associated Press, the case turned on whether a school system can be held liable under the civil rights legislation Title IX for a single alleged assault when there had been no notice of a problem.

State Sen. Louise Lucas facing 2 felony charges over toppling of Confederate statue in Portsmouth

State Sen. Louise Lucas facing 2 felony charges over toppling of Confederate statue in Portsmouth. Topple and be toppled. We hope the charges stick.

Portsmouth Police Chief Angela Greene said the charges are the result of a weekslong investigation into the June 10 incident, which left a local man critically injured after the statue fell on him during a protest.

The charges against the high-profile lawmaker come a day before the start of a special session of the General Assembly on COVID-19 and police reform. Democrats hold a 21-19 edge in the Senate, and if Lucas is absent, it could threaten parts of the Democrats’ agenda.

Half a million incorrect absentee ballot applications sent across Virginia, including to dead people

I VOTED TWICE

Half a million incorrect absentee ballot applications sent across Virginia, including to dead people. Arf! Arf! My name is Fluffy and I voted twice! Remember, there is no voter fraud according to the crooked Democrats.

A non-profit group says more than a half-million inaccurate applications for absentee ballots were mistakenly sent across Virginia this week — including to dead voters, errant relatives and even a pet — in an unprecedented mailing flub that has heightened concerns about the integrity of expanding mail-in voting efforts.

 

Antifa Group Plans To March Alongside Pro-Gun Protesters In Virginia

Antifa Group Plans To March Alongside Pro-Gun Protesters In Virginia. Now you see why Virginia Governor Ralph “Black Face” Northam wanted everyone disarmed at the Virginia Capitol building and grounds. He doesn’t want any of his Antifa stooges injured. So much for a peaceful protest. You can bet who will get blamed for any violence.

Ralph Northam’s Great-Grandfather was ‘Red Shirt’, Family Owned 42 Slaves

Ralph Northam’s Great-Grandfather was ‘Red Shirt’, Family Owned 42 Slaves. Well corn our pone.

Northam’s roots can be traced back to his great grandfather, Captain J.E. Brownlee, also a Democrat, who fought against the Yankees in the Civil War. After the war, he was a stalwart member of the “Red Shirts,” a group of white supremacists – all Democrats – who made a name for themselves by intimidating freed slaves to stop them from voting.

Gov. Ralph Northam’s statement on yearbook photo

Gov. Ralph Northam’s statement on yearbook photo. Based upon the new rules the Democrats have he should immediately resign.

“Earlier today, a website published a photograph of me from my 1984 medical school yearbook in a costume that is clearly racist and offensive. 

“I am deeply sorry for the decision I made to appear as I did in this photo and for the hurt that decision caused then and now.

“This behavior is not in keeping with who I am today and the values I have fought for throughout my career in the military, in medicine, and in public service. But I want to be clear, I understand how this decision shakes Virginians’ faith in that commitment.

“I recognize that it will take time and serious effort to heal the damage this conduct has caused. I am ready to do that important work. The first step is to offer my sincerest apology and to state my absolute commitment to living up to the expectations Virginians set for me when they elected me to be their Governor.”

Chinese investors sue McAuliffe, Rodham over green-car investments

Chinese investors sue McAuliffe, Rodham over green-car investments. Yes, THAT Rodham, AKA Hillary’s Brother. It appears there is another breach in the Clinton Crime Family armor. Anti-gun McAuliffe’s involvement is an added bonus.

Virginia Lawmakers May Take Away Anti-Gun Governor’s Body Guards

Virginia Lawmakers May Take Away Anti-Gun Governor’s Body Guards. We heartily encourage this. Time to play hardball with the gun grabbers. Perhaps Congress should take away all arms from Obama’s secret service protection for starters?

Washington Post praises politician for being a spineless weasel

The Washington Post likes Creigh Deeds, Virginia’s Democratic nominee for governor. Actually, they may not be all that crazy about Deeds, but they hate-hate-hate Bob McDonnell, his Republican opponent.

On one hand, Creigh Deeds. On the other hand, Creigh Deeds.
On one hand, Creigh Deeds. On the other hand, Creigh Deeds.

The Washington Post likes Creigh Deeds, Virginia’s Democratic nominee for governor. Actually, they may not be all that crazy about Deeds, but they hate-hate-hate Bob McDonnell, his Republican opponent.

In fact, they hate McDonnell so much that they actually find a way to heap praise on Deeds for his hilarious habit of taking both sides of every argument.

To supporters, his capacity for change suggests the promise of his leadership: that, never having been wed to ideology, he is capable of responding even-handedly to the array of economic and social challenges facing Virginia. To his skeptics, the trait merely evinces Deeds’s habit of trying to appeal to different constituencies by saying “yes” and “no” to the same question.

We agree with that analysis. Of course, we also disagree with it.

The Biden Curse: The better he says the economy’s getting, the worse the economy gets

On July 9, Joe Biden traveled to Ohio to tell the yokels how effective the “stimulus” had been. “Roads plus teachers plus cops plus jobs equals a community,” he said, “and that equals paychecks and prosperity.” Eight days later, it was announced that the state’s unemployment rate had increased from 10.8% to 11.1%.

"I swear the economy's getting better. Much better. Really better. Super better."

Hope like hell Joe Biden doesn’t come to your town to tell you how effective the “stimulus” has been.

On July 9, Joe Biden traveled to Ohio to tell the yokels how effective the “stimulus” had been. “Roads plus teachers plus cops plus jobs equals a community,” he said, “and that equals paychecks and prosperity.” Eight days later, it was announced that the state’s unemployment rate had increased from 10.8% to 11.1%.

On July 16, Biden visited Richmond, Virginia to deliver the same message of hope and change. The next day, the Bureau of Labor Statistics revealed that Virginia shed 22,800 in June and that the state’s unemployment rate had jumped to 7.2%.

In the words of Aussie blogger Andrew Bolt, “It’s like the Gore Effect, only for unemployment.”
