Debbie Wasserman Schultz on Tuesday survived a tough primary challenge -- defeating a persistent, first-time challenger and the controversy that ended her leadership of the Democratic National Committee.

The sign hanging on the door at the Catholic High School for boys in Little Rock, Arkansas. Let's say your 10th-grader forgets his lunch. So you receive a telephone call at work. “Mom, I left my baloney sandwich on the kitchen counter,” he tells you. “Can you bring it to me, pretty please?” Click here to join Todd’s American Dispatch: a must-read for Conservatives!

The Charlotte-Mecklenburg school district utilized a ‘gender unico’ cartoon character to explain issues like gender identity and gender expression. (Courtesy NC Values Coalition) Teachers in Charlotte, North Carolina, have been advised to stop calling the children “boys and girls,” according to a training presentation on transgender issues. Instead, the progressives who control Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools want teachers to identify the youngsters as either “students” or “scholars.” So what if a teacher has a student who is dumb as a rock? Would the child still be called a scholar? Click here to join Todd’s American Dispatch: a must-read for Conservatives! The transgender guidelines, whi...

Politically correct tyray is afoot at the University of Houston. I was recently made aware of a student at the university who was suspended for 50 days by the student govement association and ordered to attend diversity training over a reference she made about the Black Lives Matter crowd. “#ForgetBlackLivesMatter; more like AllLivesMatter,” wrote Rohini Sethi, the vice president of the school’s student govement association.
