A Christian family has filed a lawsuit against a Maryland school district that isn't allowing the family's star student daughter to graduate over religious objections to a health class with LGBTQ+ curriculum. The student, whose identity is being protected by Fox News Digital, has a 4.76 weighted GPA and received a 1450 on her SATs, which is in the 96th percentile, according to school records. 'We are not trying to get MCPS to stop teaching about LGBTQ+ or change its curriculum. ... We are trying to get MCPS to refrain from discriminating against religion.' Despite her excellent records, Montgomery County Public Schools isn't allowing her to graduate because she refuses to complete a mandatory health class with "LGBTQ+ affirming" and "religiously discriminatory" content, according to the family. The district is defending its refusal for a religious opt-out in a separate case that is before the U.S. Supreme Court and was filed by a group of Jewish, Christian, and Muslim parents of students. "She's pretty distraught about not being able to graduate with all her friends and experience that rite of passage," her father said to Fox. The family has filed a petition at the Maryland Supreme Court to allow the daughter to graduate on the regular schedule. The parents obtained screenshots of the teacher training documents that ordered teachers to "review LGBTQ+ resources to incorporate more inclusive language" with the students and provided them to Fox. The guidance also allegedly labeled Christians as a privileged group while labeling "Non Abrahamic Religions/Spiritualities" as oppressed. The family offered to have their daughter take alternative classes to fulfill the health class requirement, but the district refused. "We are not trying to get MCPS to stop teaching about LGBTQ+ or change its curriculum," wrote the parents in a letter to the Maryland State Board of Education in March. "We are trying to get MCPS to keep that teaching restricted to the Family Life and Human Sexuality part of the curriculum so we can get notice of it and opt-out our daughter, or if MCPS is allowed to spread LGBTQ+ instruction throughout the entire health class, as its teacher instruction materials say it is doing, it follows that MCPS should allow us to opt-out our daughter from the entire class," they added. "We are trying to get MCPS to refrain from discriminating against religion."Neither the district nor the board of education responded to a request for comment from Fox. Like Blaze News?

The secrecy surrounding the assassination of John F. Kennedy has long been a breeding ground for conspiracy theories and debate — and judging by the American people's growing thirst for the truth, it’s for good reason. Now, the fervor brought on by his assassination has all been reignited by the recently declassified JFK files, which Bill O’Reilly of “No Spin News” and author of “Killing Kennedy” doesn’t believe are groundbreaking in the slightest. “There’s nothing in there that startled me, and we did some pretty heavy-duty research on 'Killing Kennedy.' We were lucky enough to get the original FBI notes,” O’Reilly tells Allie Beth Stuckey on “Relatable,” noting that those FBI notes “concluded with evidence that is rock solid that Oswald was the gunman.” However, some conspiracy theories tell a different story — and O’Reilly isn’t buying them. “A number of people have made millions of dollars by trumping up conspiracy theories about who killed Kennedy and how it all happened. Just remember, there is an industry that does that, and they make money,” he explains. “I saw chatter on X from people saying, ‘Oh, Israel was involved in some way.’ Is there any truth to that?” Stuckey asks. “No, of course not. The Kennedy conspiracy people, there’s a group on social media that desperately wants attention, and some of them can monetize that by saying outrageous things they can never back up,” O’Reilly responds. O’Reilly has clearly done his research on Oswald and explains that the assassin was a former Marine sniper and thus an expert marksman. “He comes back, he defects to Russia, and then after a few years, he gets married, and he comes back to the United States with his bride, Marina,” O’Reilly says. “But he’s still a nut. He was a nut when he defected, and he’s a nut when he came back.” Oswald then sauntered into the Cuban consulate in Mexico City, where he was rejected. “They reject him because he was a nut. Anybody knowing him knew that,” O’Reilly continues. “Oswald’s mad, he comes back to Texas. So that was what that was all about. CIA picked him up down there, saw him, and then he was surveilled to some extent in Dallas, so he was on their radar.” According to O’Reilly, Oswald had a CIA minder in Dallas named George de Mohrenschildt, which is a curious part of the story. “I believe and I think I can prove it that de Mohrenschildt was Oswald’s minder for the CIA. Kept an eye on him. When the congressional committee investigating the assassination approached de Mohrenschildt in Florida years later, de Morenschildt killed himself,” O’Reilly tells Stuckey. “Wow,” Stuckey says, shocked.

The Democrats are already getting ready for the 2028 election, but their choices aren’t looking so hot. And a list created by The Hill of their top 10 contenders couldn’t make that any clearer. “It’s not a promising list. It’s not looking that good,” Stu Burguiere of “Stu Does America” comments, adding, “They literally have, at number 10, Stephen A. Smith.” Stephen A. Smith is an ESPN personality who has spent his career discussing sports and getting into public scuffles with Jason Whitlock of “Fearless.” Smith has publicly toyed with the idea of running for president in several interviews — but the fact that he made it on to the list has Stu pretty hopeful for the Republican ticket. “This is how pathetic this field is. This is how thin the bench is for the Democratic Party,” he says, before moving onto number nine on the list: Rahm Emanuel. Emanuel was Barack Obama’s chief of staff. Stu notes that he has been relatively unheard of since the Obama era. “It’s hard to imagine he would even have a chance,” he comments. Pete Buttigieg also made the list at number eight, which Stu says “has got to be terrifying for you if you’re on the left,” while JB Pritzker came in at number seven. “Who put together this list? This is a catastrophe,” he says, adding, “So far, this is a bunch of nobodies outside of Stephen A. Smith, who almost certainly won’t run.” Whoever wrote the list certainly still has hope for a Kamala Harris presidency, as she made the list at number six, right after Governor Wes Moore (D-Md.) at number five. “This one I see a lot of hype for,” Stu says. “Hasn’t really accomplished an awful lot, kind of an unknown nationally, but he’s generally a pretty good communicator.” Shockingly, even Governor Gavin Newsom (D-Calif.) is a top contender at number four. Stu says he “has been a catastrophe for the state of California.” “Let’s be honest about it. He was awful during COVID. He went out to dinner when he was trying to convince everyone else they needed to be in lockdown. That was just a total disaster. He almost got recalled,” Stu explains. Number three isn’t much better. “Gretchen Whitmer at number three is a disaster. She’s terrible,” Stu says, before getting to number two, who Stu admits is “a bit scary to the right.” “It’s Josh Shapiro. Shapiro has handled a lot of the situations in his state pretty well,” he explains. “He did a pretty good job coming out talking about political violence; he kind of talked about it on either side of the aisle.” “AOC, number one. The number-one possibility, according to The Hill, for 2028,” Stu says, shocked. “I will say, there is a path there. The path is that people really don’t like Donald Trump. The presidency goes terrible, and they’ll just reflect to whatever Democrat wins, and she’s seen as the only one taking this seriously.” “But making AOC the voice of the left is a good thing for Republicans generally. But if things go very badly, like if there’s a massive economic crisis, then any Democrat will win,” he warns.

Jaw-dropping cellphone video caught the moments when a group of females physically attacked two uniformed police officers outside a Southern California high school Thursday afternoon.Turns out the San Bernardino school officers — a man and a woman — were there to break up a fight in the parking lot of Entrepreneur High School in Highland around 3 p.m. when they came under attack themselves, KABC-TV reported.'Am I the only one that finds the name "Entrepreneur [High] School" ironic?'You can view cellphone video of the attack here.It shows about four females taking turns arguing and shoving and striking the two officers. The male officer at the start of the clip continually yells at the females to "back up" and "get off" as the female cop tries to subdue one of the combatants on the ground.Soon the male cop has enough and grabs one of the females — who's wearing a red bandanna — and forces her to the ground, attempting to handcuff her after she had punched him in the chest.Arguably the worst moment occurred when another female — wearing a Nike sweatshirt — actually pulled the female officer by her hair and moved her several feet backward.Several people were eventually handcuffed, KABC said.How are people reacting to the video?As you might expect, observers were not thrilled by what they saw:"Oh, the parents must be so proud," one commenter wrote."Am I the only one that finds the name 'Entrepreneur [High] School' ironic?" another user asked."They have NO FEAR of consequences," another commenter offered."I counted at least 5 different times that a body slam was warranted," another user declared."This is what happens when politicians and command staffs constantly scrutinize and implement asinine laws and policies," another commenter said.Anything else?The station said it reached out to the San Bernardino school police and the district superintendent for more information on what started the fight.You can view a video report here about the incident.Like Blaze News?
