The University of Minnesota spent $219,633 developing a training course that teaches medical professionals about “structural racism” within the health care industry as a result of “white supremacy,” according to documents obtained by watchdog Do No Harm and reviewed by the Daily Caller News Foundation.

The vast majority of Ukrainians – 78 percent – say President Volodymyr Zelensky is directly responsible for corruption in the government and military, a poll published on Monday found.

The survey, conducted in July by the Ilko Kucheriv Democratic Initiatives Foundation and the Kyiv International Institute of Sociology, also found that Ukrainians ranked corruption within their own government as a bigger threat to “Ukrainian entrepreneurship” than the ongoing Russian invasion, according to the Kyiv Independent.

The poll was taken after months of investigations, which followed months of firings at the highest levels of governments. Zelensky announced measures to fight bribery and other corrupt activity in his administration in January, firing five governors and four deputy ministers. Those firings came after the ouster of top infrastructure official Vasyl Lozinskyi on suspicions of embezzlement.

Since the Ilko Kucheriv Democratic Initiatives Foundation poll was taken in July, Zelensky has fired every regional recruitment center head for taking bribes from men attempting to avoid the war and has replaced the nation’s defense minister, Oleksii Reznikov. Reznikov does not face any criminal charges or accusations of direct involvement in corruption at press time, but rumors of corruption preceded his “resignation.”

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s (D., N.Y.) office says she isn’t married. But she has described her fiancé, Riley Roberts, as her "spouse" in forms filed with the House Ethics Committee in 2023, which has a strict definition of that term—"someone to whom you are legally married."

That could become a problem for the left-wing darling, since willful misrepresentations on the documents are a no-no—they could subject her to criminal prosecution, the forms state—and members of Congress are required to disclose the financial information of their spouses, which Ocasio-Cortez has declined to do.

But taken at face value, four legal filings submitted to the House Ethics Committee pertaining to AOC’s overseas travels in 2022 and 2023 suggest the pair have been legally married at least since Jan. 13, 2023. If that is the case, the "Squad" member can no longer leverage the so-called boyfriend loophole to evade public disclosure of his finances. While lawmakers are required to disclose financial information about their spouses, live-in romantic partners and fiancés are exempt from the rule.

If they are not, her forms were filed incorrectly. "They are not legally married," AOC spokeswoman Lauren Hitt told the Washington Free Beacon. "House Ethics has commonly recognized the term spouse to extend to long-term partners."

Elie Honig, a legal analyst for CNN, acknowledged that there may be some merit to Former President Donald Trump’s motion asking that Federal District Judge Tanya Chutkan recuse herself from his case.

Speaking on CNN This Morning, Honig acknowledged that Trump’s request is an “extreme longshot” legally but added that, given Judge Chutkan’s prior comments, it’s “not an outrageous motion.”

The motion for recusal was brought about by remarks made by Judge Chutkan during the sentencing of those convicted of being part of the Capitol attack on January 6. Trump’s legal team claims that these comments show a possible bias against the former president.

Judge Chutkan is quoted in the motion as saying, “The people who exhorted you and encouraged you and rallied you to go and take action and to fight have not been charged,” in reference to a defendant in the Capitol riot case.

CNN host Poppy Harlow asked: “Trump’s lawyers argue statements like those and others mean she should not be able to hear this case against Trump. They add ‘only if this trial is administered by a judge who appears entirely impartial could the public ever accept the outcome as justice.’ I know recusals don’t happen often in situations like this. There are other statements that are interesting that she’s made. Things like when she said last year, “It’s a blind loyalty to one person who, by the way, remains free to this day.” They, talking about, you would think Trump. What do you think?”

In the annals of history, the vivid and horrifying images of the Twin Towers collapsing on that fateful Sept. 11, 2001, are etched into the collective memory of Americans.

But amid the chaos and devastation of that day, there’s one building that often remains shrouded in obscurity, its significance relegated to the shadows — World Trade Center 7.

On that same day, as the sun dipped below the horizon at 5:20 p.m., Building 7 crumbled to the ground.

Astonishingly, this skyscraper had not been struck by an airplane, and fires raged on only a few of its floors.

The reason behind its collapse has long been a subject of contention, with many questioning the official narrative.

The collapse of Building 7 at the World Trade Center often goes unnoticed, but it’s a topic that continues to ignite debate and intrigue more than two decades on.

The Biden administration is flexing its muscle at mainstream media outlets covering Republicans’ impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden’s past actions and statements in office, sending a letter from legal counsel demanding that news organizations “ramp up” their scrutiny of the GOP’s “lies.”

Ian Sams, a special assistant to the president and senior advisor to the White House Counsel’s Office, has penned a letter to be sent to the New York Times, Associated Press, CNN, and other outlets one day after House Speaker Kevin McCarthy announced the opening of an impeachment inquiry. In his remarks Tuesday, McCarthy (R-CA) cited evidence that Biden as vice president allegedly curried favors for overseas business partners of his son Hunter, who continues to negotiate with federal prosecutors over the terms of a plea deal related to tax fraud from his business activities.

President Biden has angrily denied knowledge or participation despite whistleblowers like Devon Archer, Hunter’s longtime business partner, coming forward to claim that Biden went to great lengths to appease businessmen who lavished his son with millions of dollars in lucrative contracts.

MSNBC columnist and progressive radio host Dean Obeidallah suggested that Donald Trump “must die in prison” to serve as a public example.

Obeidallah was talking about how the media was portraying the two top presidential candidates during a conversation with his guest, Mediaite reporter Tommy Christopher, on Friday’s episode of “The Dean Obeidallah Show.”

Christopher felt that the media hadn’t expressed sufficient “outrage” towards Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley, who had predicted that President Biden, at 80 years old, might not complete another full term in office.

The reporter suggested that if Biden had warned voters that 77-year-old Trump might “die in prison,” conservative media would have reacted strongly.

Obeidallah chimed in, asserting that the former president should meet his end behind bars due to the criminal charges he’s facing.

“I think Donald Trump must die in prison because I don’t care if he was 45 years old. You should get life in prison if you attempt a coup, and there should be no chance of parole. I don’t care who it is,” the radio host stated.
