Middle School Teacher Compares Testing Mandate To Holocaust In Viral Video

In the clip, Stacy Pearce, a teacher at Berrendos Middle School, appears wearing a yellow star on her chest, protesting the mandate as she explains her views concerning the regular testing mandate among school staff who have not received the COVID vaccine. She also urges others to join her in denouncing the requirement. “Why am I wearing this yellow star on my chest? In Nazi Germany, the Jews were required to wear this yellow Star of David on their clothing to identify them, to humiliate them, and to isolate them, what’s happening today is not much different in our school system,” Pearce says in the video, which is now only posted on an advocacy page set up by Tehama County residents in support of the school teacher....

Midnight Rant Hey Microsoft Just Natal

An interesting discussion popped up between a few Game Rant Writers and myself earlier today. The subject was what Microsoft would be showing at E3 this year. The disagreement was whether, in addition to Natal, Microsoft would announce any new hardware during their two press conferences. I don’t want to speak for the other writers, but their general consensus was that a new hardware announcement of any kind would be unlikely....

Mike Cernovich To Challenge Gavin Newsom If There S A Recall To Force Debate On War Crimes

Petitioners have until March 17 to garner the 1.5 million signatures necessary to move forward with the recall process. The recall effort is considered to be a long shot by many experts, but if petitioners’ numbers are accurate, they’re only about 200,000 valid signatures away from reaching the target. A successful effort could open the floodgates for challengers to Newsom’s job because candidacy requirements in a recall are lower than they are in a general election....

Mike Hussey To Mentor Australia For The World T20 Sridharan Sriram Joins Camp Too

Hussey, remembered for many an innings, is no stranger to the shortest format of the game, as his innings of 60 off just 24 balls with 3 fours and 6 sixes against Pakistan in the 2010 World T20 semi-final, would still be remembered by many Pakistani fans as the innings that denied them consecutive shots at the cup. He also has loads of experience when it comes to the Indian conditions, as he has been a regular in the Indian Premier League (IPL) having already played 59 games, and still in contention for the next season....

Mike Milbury Delivers Truly Awful Take On Tuukka Rask And Is Justly Roasted For It

As far as reasons go, Rask had a pretty good one: The Finnish national, who hadn’t been with his family since at least late June, wanted to be with his wife and three young daughters, the youngest of whom was born in late April. The nuance of Rask’s decision, however, seemed to be lost on Milbury. The “NHL on NBC” analyst reacted with a predictably bad take ahead Game 3 of the Boston-Carolina series, saying, “nobody’s simply opted to leave the bubble just because they didn’t want to be here and they needed to be with their family....

Mike Pence Says Joe Biden S Iran Nuclear Strategy Shows Weakness

Pence told a Washington, D.C. event on Thursday that Biden’s “embrace” of the nuclear deal was dangerous for the U.S. His decision to appear at the event organized by the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI)—the political wing of the controversial People’s Mujahedin of Iran (PMOI/MEK)—reiterates his hawkish stance on Iran. “Peace follows strength,” Pence told the attendees. “With our current administration’s embrace of the JCPOA, their hesitation to condemn rockets being fired at our cherished ally Israel, and the heart breaking and disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan, our adversaries may be sensing weakness in the current American administration....

That’s a total of seven games, as Miami’s BYE week lands in early October. It’s disappointing news for the Dolphins, a mediocre offensive squad....
