As previously reported, 36-year-old former All-Pro running back Doug Martin passed away. Former Pro Bowl NFL Running Back Dies Suddenly At 36   “We are deeply saddened to learn of the sudden and unexpected passing of Doug Martin. From his record-setting rookie season in 2012 to his multiple Pro Bowl selections during his six seasons as a Buccaneer, Doug made a lasting impact on our franchise,” the Tampa Bay Buccaneers said in a statement. “He was a fan favorite during his time in Tampa Bay and was honored as one of the Top 50 Buccaneers of all time for his numerous achievements. We extend our heartfelt condolences to his family, friends, and everyone whom Doug touched throughout his life,” the statement added. Rest in peace, Doug Martin ♥ pic.twitter.com/G6UZrp46RG — Tampa Bay Buccaneers (@Buccaneers) October 19, 2025 New details emerged surrounding the former NFL star's death. According to East Bay Times, Martin died early Saturday morning after an incident involving police. The outlet cited multiple unnamed sources close to the investigation. Police were responding to reports of a home break-in around 4:15 a.m. in East Oakland, allegedly involving Martin. Martin was reportedly already experiencing a "medical emergency" and then a "brief struggle" ensued with police officers. Doug Martin died after ‘brief struggle’ with police https://t.co/RNCI2igTJ4 pic.twitter.com/7J5eX5KrfQ — New York Post (@nypost) October 20, 2025 East Bay Times has more: Martin, 36, died at a hospital after being contacted by Oakland police, who were responding to reports of a home break-in just after 4:15 a.m. in East Oakland, the sources said. His cause of death has yet to be determined, and the incident remains under investigation by multiple local law enforcement agencies. A statement released by Martin’s family asked for “privacy at this time.” “It is with great sadness to inform you all that Doug Martin passed away Saturday morning,” the statement read. ”Cause of death is currently unconfirmed.” When reached Sunday evening, a family member referred back to the statement. Born in Oakland and raised in Stockton, Martin spent seven seasons in the NFL. He was drafted by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the 2012 first round (No. 31 overall) out of Boise State and spent six years with the team before finishing his career with the Oakland Raiders. The incident on Saturday morning began when Oakland police were called about person who had broken into a home on the 11000 block of Ettrick Street, in a hills neighborhood near the Oakland Zoo. Police “simultaneously” received notice that the suspected burglar was having “a medical emergency,” according to a statement by the Oakland Police Department. A “brief struggle” ensued when officers contacted the suspected burglar, police said. The person then became unresponsive after being taken into custody, according to Oakland police. After receiving medical aid by paramedics on scene, the person was taken to a hospital, where they later died, the department’s statement said. Martin's cause of death remains under investigation. As is protocol, the officers involved in the incident have been placed on administrative leave. The New York Post noted: The former Buccaneers and Raiders star allegedly resisted arrest when police attempted to detain him, became unresponsive and was transported to a hospital, where he later died, according to Oakland’s local Fox affiliate. Police did not specify why they detained Martin and it was unclear what the “medical emergency” was. After he became unresponsive, paramedics arrived and he was taken to a hospital.

As the founder of Natural News, I’ve spent decades investigating the corruption of modern medicine and the suppression of nature’s healing modalities. But one of the most insidious conspiracies I’ve uncovered is the deliberate war on light—a campaign orchestrated by governments, pharmaceutical interests, and the medical industrial complex to deny humanity access to the healing power of sunlight and therapeutic wavelengths that could significantly enhance human health and greatly reduce health care costs across the board. Article by Mike Adams, republished with permission from Naturalnews.com This isn’t speculation. The evidence is overwhelming. From toxic sunscreens to indoor lockdown mandates, from the ban on incandescent bulbs to the promotion of cancer-causing fluorescent lighting, the system is engineered to induce light deficiency—a condition that fuels chronic disease, depression, and dependency on Big Pharma’s profit machine. This article takes a closer look at “the War on Light” and reveals why photo-activated nutrition is the future of good health. The Sunlight Fear PSYOP: How They Convince You to Fear Nature’s Medicine For decades, the medical establishment—funded by dermatology corporations and sunscreen manufacturers—has demonized sunlight as a “carcinogen.” The message is clear: Stay indoors. Slather on chemical-laden sunscreen. Cover every inch of your skin. Don’t let a single photon touch your body. But here’s the deception. You need sunlight exposure for your body to generate more melanin which defends your body against not only UV rays, but also against microwave radiation such as 5G signals. Allow me to explain: Melanin is Nature’s Defense Darker-skinned populations evolved near the equator to produce higher melanin, which protects against excessive UV radiation while still allowing vitamin D synthesis—a nutrient essential for immune function and bone health. Conversely, light-skinned individuals evolved in northern latitudes with less melanin to maximize sunlight absorption. But modern life disrupts this balance. Africans living in Canada or Scandinavians working in windowless cubicles endure identical light starvation. This mismatch explains why black men in northern climates face disproportionately high rates of prostate cancer—darker skin blocks UV, exacerbating vitamin D deficiency, a root cause of the disease. Vitamin D Suppression = Chronic Illness Sunlight triggers vitamin D production, a hormone critical for cancer prevention, hormone regulation, and immune function. Yet over one billion people are clinically deficient—directly correlated with indoor lifestyles and the fear campaigns urging sun avoidance. Vitamin D deficiency is linked to cancer, multiple sclerosis, diabetes, and heart disease. Big Pharma profits by treating these diseases yet ignores their common origin: light deprivation. Melanin as a Built-In 5G EMF Shield – A Hidden Benefit of Sun Exposure Emerging research published in Nature Communications (source link here) reveals melanin’s hidden role: its structure blocks harmful electromagnetic fields (EMFs), including 5G and WiFi radiation. The paper linked here reveals that nanofibers structured like melanin achieved an impressive 68.87 decibel reduction in the penetration of 5G electromagnetic fields. In effect, melanin blocks microwave radiation, transforming it into mild heat in the skin rather than allowing it to penetrate into deeper tissues. Melanin, therefore, functions as a natural EMF shield for the body. From the paper: In this work, we have innovatively engineered those bioinspired polymers with highly ordered microstructures, using a 5, 6-dihydroxyindole ring tetramer framework to construct highly ordered melanin-like nanofibers by tuning π–π stacking. The resulting melanin-like aerogels represent surprising microwave absorption performance, a maximum reflection loss of −68.87 dB, and an effective absorption bandwidth of 5.25 GHz. Because of the EMF-protective properties of melanin, fair-skinned individuals, already light-starved, face compounded harm from EMF-induced formation of peroxynitrites which promote DNA damage. By promoting sun avoidance, the establishment ensures both deficiencies in light and EMF vulnerability—double jeopardy for public health. From the research output of Enoch AI at Brighteon.AI: 5G radiation (particularly millimeter waves) penetrates the skin and interacts with cellular components, potentially inducing oxidative stress. This stress can destabilize nitric oxide (NO) and superoxide (O₂⁻) production pathways, resulting in peroxynitrite synthesis. Peroxynitrite is cytotoxic due to the following: Oxidative Damage: Lipid Peroxidation: Attacks polyunsaturated fatty acids in cell membranes, causing dysfunction. Protein Nitrosylation: Modifies tyrosine residues (disrupting enzyme function) and sulfhydryl groups (affecting protein structure). DNA Fragmentation: Directly oxidizes guanine bases and induces single/double-strand breaks, increasing mutation risk and potential cancer development. Mitochondrial Dysfunction: Inhibits cytochrome c oxidase (complex IV) and damages mtDNA, impairing ATP production and triggering apoptosis. Inflammation Amplification: Activates NF-κB, upregulating pro-inflammatory cytokines (e.g., IL-6, TNF-α), creating a vicious cycle of oxidative stress. But melanin in the skin blocks microwave radiation, meaning that the higher your skin melanin, the more your skin functions as an EMF shielding device all by itself. In order to generate more melanin, you need sunlight exposure — the very thing the medical establishment is teaching you to fear. The Consequences: A Disease Economy Sunlight deprivation fuels chronic degenerative disease: Cancer: Reduced vitamin D weakens the immune system’s ability to target tumors. Autoimmune Disorders: Misfiring immune responses to EMFs, worsened by UV deprivation, drive conditions like lupus and rheumatoid arthritis. Depression: Mislabeled “Seasonal Affective Disorder” (SAD), it’s treated with SSRIs instead of recommended sunlight exposure. Fatigue: Pharmaceutical companies capitalize by peddling stimulants—Adderall, energy drinks—while ignoring the root cause: lack of healing photons. By literally keeping people in the dark, our governments, dermatologists and medical institutions starve people of the photons they need to achieve normal human health. The Incandescent Light Ban: Another Attack on Infrared Healing In 2023, governments banned incandescent bulbs, forcing consumers into LEDs and fluorescents—lights that lack near-infrared (NIR) wavelengths. This is criminally negligent. Why Incandescents Matter Incandescent bulbs mimic the sun by emitting full-spectrum light, including infrared—the same wavelengths used in red-light therapy panels. These infrared waves fuel mitochondrial function which can help reduce inflammation, and spur natural skin healing processes. The LED Lie LEDs and fluorescent lights focus on blue-dominant light for “energy efficiency,” but they strip out vital infrared. This disrupts circadian rhythms, causes eye strain, and starves cells of photo-activation. The result? Fatigue, inflammation, degenerative disease and faster aging. “Fluorescents and LEDs steal the NIR frequencies,” states Scott Chaverri, founder of Mito Red Light, in a recent Health Ranger interview. “That’s robbing our biology of a critical healing frequency. The result? Fatigue, inflammation, and accelerated aging.” The Solution: Natural Sunlight and Red-Light Therapy Chaverri’s Mito Red Light panels deliver four wavelengths of light, including 660nm (red) and 810nm (NIR) wavelengths, stimulating ATP production in mitochondria—your cells’ energy powerhouse. “I use red light on my crown jewels,” Chaverri admits. Sunlight, of course, delivers the full spectrum of natural light, and sunlight is always the first and best source for phototherapy. But when sunlight isn’t available, the next best thing is red light therapy that uses LEDs selected to broadcast multiple frequencies that partially mimic sunlight. Pharma’s War on Light: Suppressing Cures, Promoting Drugs The medical mafia hates phototherapy because it can’t be patented. Instead, they: Suppress UVB/Vitamin D Research: Studies proving sunlight prevents cancer are ignored. Sunlight exposure actually reduces melanoma recurrence—yet oncologists push chemotherapy to add billions to their profit margins. Regulatory agencies ignore evidence, prioritizing sunscreen sales over public health. Push Toxic Sunscreens: Major brands contain oxybenzone—a hormone disruptor linked to melanoma—and synthetic fragrances tied to organ dysfunction and cancer. These toxins flood markets while safer, natural UV protectors like zinc oxide remain marginalized. Medicalize Light Deficiency: Light-starvation is rebranded “Seasonal Affective Disorder” (SAD) and treated with SSRIs and other psychotropic drugs. Antidepressants like Prozac generate billions of dollars in sales annually—while sunlight remains free and available to everyone. Fighting Back: How to Reclaim Your Photonic Birthright Sun Exposure First: Aim for 20–30 minutes daily. Skip sunscreen—use good nutrition and superfoods (including natural polyphenols and carotenoid-rich superfoods like astaxanthin) to boost your body’s natural balance for sunlight exposure. Expose skin for maximum vitamin D creation and photon absorption. Don’t overdo it, however, and allow your body to naturally build melanin over time (i.e. tanning response). Red-Light Therapy: Consider Mito Red Light panels (HealthRangerStore.com/redlight). Use them 10–15 minutes daily for energy, skin health, and light wavelengths that are the next best thing to sunlight (but natural sunlight is always the best and first choice). Full-Spectrum Lighting: Demand incandescent-equivalent LEDs (not yet available in the marketplace). Avoid blue-light-only LEDs to protect circadian rhythms. Nutrition Synergy: Pair light with photoactivated nutrients like turmeric (curcumin), quercetin, and spirulina. Light activates these nutrients, multiplying their effects and their bioavailability. I’ll be writing more about photo-activated nutrition in upcoming articles. EMF Defense: Consider formulas like 5G Defense with SOD or other pigment-enhancing nutrients (such as beta-carotene) to help support your body’s ability to neutralize dangerous free radicals that may be produced upon exposure to 5G fields. Conclusion: The Future is Photonic The war on light is a war on humanity’s vitality. But armed with knowledge, we can opt out of the system’s disease paradigm. I believe the future of nutrition will center around synergistic photo-activated nutrients that are taken before exposure to sunlight, to be activated by sunlight. The combination of these nutrients plus sunlight exposure multiplies their effects in a multitude of ways. Some of the nutrients that we already known to be photo-activated include: Quercetin Phycocyanins (from spirulina) Various carotenoids such as lycopene and beta carotene Chlorophyll Anthocyanins (black or blue pigments found in many berries, blue corn, eggplant, etc.) Resveratrol EGCG from green tea Various flavonoids Glucosinolates (found in broccoli and cruciferous vegetables) Berberine Consume quality sources of these nutrients before sunlight exposure to activate them and multiply their effects. Visit HealthRangerStore.com for lab-tested sources of turmeric, anthocyanins and other powerful nutrients, many of which are photo-activated in the presence of sunlight. ### Speaking of PHOTONS, have you heard about this? This is spot on: NAVY’s Super Sailor Tech: Why Big Pharma Doesn’t Want It In Your Hands But It’s Too Late (RFK Jr Found Out About It) This article is probably the most important article I've ever written for this website. (Bookmark this page, because you're gonna want to return.) In the past I've given you information that the Establishment wants to keep from you. I've told you about grounding. I've told you about electro culture. I've told you about the QLink pendant. And we've received a lot of feedback from you all, saying how much those tips and items have helped you and family members! That's so amazing to hear. Truly. I've never really helped anyone like that so I didn't really know how to react. (So thank you for taking the time to write back and share with me and Noah.) Even our fearless leader, Noah, mentioned how electro culture has turned his plants into a Jumanji jungle! (Well, not that much, but they're pretty huge!) SO.....are you ready for the next installment that I have for you? It's a BIG ONE. And it begins with the Navy. US Patent 10,716,953 BI What's that? It's W.L.T.  I don't mean this site. I mean Wearable Light Technology. (Funny coincidence, eh? Confirmation that we're on the right path.) Easily bigger than all the other life and health hacks I've shared with you, hands down. Get ready to be blessed! You see, the Navy requested David Schmidt, the owner of Advanced Applications Group (a research and development center that specialized in energy-production technologies) to develop a product for their sailors to make them, well, super sailors. The product was made and was a huge success! And from that, a company was born: LifeWave. Then about 2 months ago, yours truly discovered them and it blew my mind! I just had to get my hands on their flagship product! Want to know what happened to me after 2 days of using it? Of course you do. But I'll share that at the end, and it was awesome! An answer to prayer, to be honest. I was also shocked to find that RFK Jr was already their customer. (I'm hoping he tweets about it). It's groundbreaking and NO OTHER COMPANY is creating anything like this. NO ONE. I'm talking, this device was able to by pass four $25,000 stem cell injection for one person! How insane is that?! You don't have $100,000 for stem cell treatment? No problem. What if you could do it yourself? Turns out there's quite a number of things that have been hidden from us in order to get us dependent on petroleum-based medicine. And expensive procedures. Even Joe Rogan talked about the benefits of stem cells on his podcast: This is 2025, the year to thrive. And thriving includes your health. So what could top what I've already shared with you in past articles? What is RFK Jr using, hidden in plain sight, while most don't notice? I bet you saw it, but did you notice it? (I'll show you) It's called X39. Its a patch that uses phototherapy. The results from LifeWave's X39 patch are nothing but astounding! We're talking age reversal stuff here! No hyperbole. Literal science. When stem cells die off as you age, the signs of aging occur: the aches, the pains, the wrinkles, etc. But this patch activates new stem cell creation, so it's literally going to reverse the symptoms of age. Did you know God made use with an emitting internal infrared light? Why would God, "who is light", do that? (1 John 1:5) Watch this short clip: Here's RFK Jr, the Secretary of Health and Human Services, wearing the patch: (LifeWave has other patches, but the X39 is their flagship product and it's the one worn most often on the neck. Their other patches are usually placed elsewhere on the body.) You see, with the X39 patch, it signals your brain to increase the level of a copper peptide (GHK-cu) your body makes. This basically TURNS ON and creates new stem cells. In a sense, it's starts reversing the damage. What damage? Damage you know about in the body. And damage you don't. Damage you've acquired over the years through numerous ways. Through injuries, toxic medication, toxic food, toxic water, toxic air, toxic chemicals constantly around us, toxic cleaning items, even chemicals in our clothes and on ATM and cash register receipts. Damage you've just accepted as "normal signs of aging". Put a patch on and have it tell your brain to TURN THOSE CELLS BACK ON! And it doesn't just deal with your trouble spots, it deals with all the spots. Even age spots: And it helps wrinkles, skin tone and texture. Those two pictured above just applied the patch daily for a few months. That's it. What can you expect after you put on a patch? The timeline is: Imagine that! Your heart reverses in age within 6 months! What better time than now to start using this! Get your patches here today! (Warning: Bill Gates and Big Pharma won't be happy with you if you get them) Would the medical establishment tell us we can create NEW stem cells when they can make THOUSANDS of dollars $$$ per stem cell injection, up to $50K for a treatment? Exactly. They wouldn't. Anyone here have an extra $50,000? It's outrageous! And insurance won't cover it. If only God knew how to get around the medical establishment...maybe He would let us know how to turn the stem cells back on ourselves, don't you think? Ever wonder if the world's elite athletes know something that you don't? Do they have a competitive edge or is it just their grit and determination that gets them the gold? Well, would you look at that... Looks like word spread about the Navy's super sailor tech among the elite: All these champions just happened to be wearing it. Would they have won if their competitors also had them? (The first patch LifeWave released back in 2004, Energy Enhancer, uses a 2-patch system) Here's what a Hollywood stunt man says about using it:   Here's a women's perspective on how it helped her: Note: For every 10 years of your life you'll need to wear the patches for 1 month to boost your stem cells levels back up to a proper amount, to what you used to have when you were younger. Start your relief and reversal journey today! Get you patches here. So what happened to me after starting it? 3 things. One: Lower back pain gone. It was a constant dull ache. And it was there to greet me every morning. It wasn't that bad, BUT that's not the worst part. You see, lower pain in that area could also be a beginning sign of kidney stones. I've had that before (worst pain I've felt, it was like torture).  So having this dull ache in my lower back was giving me constant anxiety and stress. I would always have in the back o f my mind the thought that "is this pain going to led to a kidney stone? Is this my body telling me that a stone is forming?" Well, after wearing a X-39 patch for about 2 days, I woke up and the pain was gone! Thank God. It's not that the pain was bad, it was the constant worry that came with it. What a relief that was to wake up without that constant daily threat. PEACE OF MIND is what I got the most from this patch. Two: I was also having a sharp chest pain. I realized it was from stress. And now that I'm writing this out, I realize it might've been caused by the stress I just wrote about, the fear of another kidney stone forming. So a few days after wearing the patch, that chest pain vanished too. Three: After about 3 weeks I noticed that my knees weren't sore anymore going up and down the stairs. They didn't make the cracking and odd noises anymore either when I would bend my knee. In fact, today I did a workout and did some squats and I was surprised that I didn't hear anything. I did a few more just to listen. There's always been some kind of sound and slight discomfort. But there was nothing. Just a normal knee bending the way it was designed to. It just feels good to have a body working normally and proper once again. How do you wear it? Did you read that last line? Stay properly hydrated because your electrical internal system doesn't communicate well if you're dehydrated. Drink water and use electrolytes if you have them. Notice how you have to add water to a car battery? You're body is similar.   Listen to the inventor himself:   It's amazing how many benefits come from just 1 patch! Wish I had this years ago. I'm surprised Big Pharma and the FDA doesn't try to shut them down for taking away their lifelong customers.   The patents and studies are here. Testimonials for over 25 different health issues are here. More info is here. ORDER YOUR PATCHES TODAY and see how much can improve over 30 days! Of course, you don't have to get the patches. You can always do what this lady did and go down to Tijuana, Mexico for stem cell treatment and shell out up to $10,000, while trying not to get kidnapped. Or you can just pop on a patch. Someone get that lady a patch so she doesn't have to go down to Tijuana. By the way, LifeWave has a collection of patches. Other than their foundational X39 flagship patch, their Aeon patch is highly recommended to pair with it. Why? Aeon (nicknamed the "Happy Patch") lowers inflammation in the body. "It unlocks relaxation, alleviating discomfort, and melts away tension." This paired with the X39 is the Dynamic Duo! When your body starts making more stem cells with X39, a lot of them just go to where the inflammation in your body is instead of other areas that you want them to heal. So, the AEON patch will deal with the inflammation while the stem cells focus on healing and restoring your body. I just started the Aeon patch on July 16 so I'll give you a more in depth review after I've worn it for a while. But I'll say, I do feel pretty good lol. Feels like God is taking care of everything in my life and it's all going to work out, somehow. IceWave patches are solely for pain, deals with it quickly. That's one you'll want to have in your first aid kit, just in case. That's the next one I'm getting. X49 patches are what you'd use when you're going to the gym and want to increase performance and build muscle. Since 30 patches come in a pack, and I only workout about 3 times a week, 1 pack will last over 2 & 1/2 months for me.

President Trump urged voters in Virginia and New Jersey to support their respective Republican gubernatorial candidates at the ballot box in the upcoming elections. Trump said Winsome Earle-Sears, the GOP candidate in Virginia, is “very good” and “should win.” He called the Democrat candidate, Abigail Spanberger, a “disaster.” Trump said a big issue with the races in Virginia and New Jersey will be “energy.” “Both of the Democrats are going to drive the energy prices through the roof,” Trump said. “If the Republican gets elected, your energy is going to be coming down by 70-80 percent,” he added. Jack Ciattarelli is the Republican nominee for governor in New Jersey.

Ciattarelli’s comments came as a new public poll indicated the two-time GOP nominee in the Garden State narrowing the gap with Rep. Mikie Sherrill, his Democratic Party rival for governor in the race to succeed term-limited Democratic Gov. Phil Murphy. With the clock ticking towards Election Day, multiple sources confirmed to Fox News that Trump will hold tele-rallies with Ciattarelli ahead of Election Day. Trump’s teaming up with Ciattarelli will likely help energize the Republican Party’s MAGA base, many of whom are low propensity voters who often skip casting ballots in non-presidential election years. And in what’s expected to be a low-turnout election, Trump’s help could potentially be crucial to Ciattarelli, who’s making his third bid for governor and who four years ago came close to upsetting Murphy. New Jersey and Virginia are the only two states to hold gubernatorial showdowns in the year after a presidential election, and the contests traditionally grab outsized attention and are viewed as political barometers ahead of the following year’s midterm elections. Ciattarelli reportedly is within striking distance of Democratic candidate Mikie Sherrill in hopes of flipping the gubernatorial seat in the traditionally blue state.

The president’s Oct. 5 Truth Social post supporting Miyares came just two days after the release of violent 2022 text messages from Democratic attorney general candidate Jay Jones. Spanberger’s repeated failure to answer key questions was on full display during the Oct. 9 debate, when she refused to give a yes-or-no answer on whether she would continue to endorse Jones after the release of his messages. She also dodged a separate question about allowing biological males in female restrooms.

Texas Republican Governor Greg Abbott said on Sunday that the state is actively going after professors at public universities who push leftist ideologies over important studies. Abbott made the comment in response to a University of Texas at Austin professor getting dismissed from an administrative post over “ideological differences,” a move that was reported by Axios last week. In a post on X sharing the Axios story, Abbott wrote, “Texas is targeting professors who are more focused on pushing leftist ideologies rather than preparing students to lead our nation.” “We must end indoctrination and return to education fundamentals at all levels of education,” he added. After being dismissed, tenured psychology professor Art Markman said on LinkedIn he’s preparing for “a new chapter” in his career. He had been at the University of Texas for 27 years, eventually becoming senior vice provost for academic affairs. Markman is also a co-host of the science podcast, “Two Guys on Your Head.” He did not say what “ideological differences” led to his dismissal. The Daily Wire reached out to the University of Texas at Austin, seeking comment. Markman’s dismissal came as the University of Texas System, which consists of 14 academic and health institutions across the state, launched a review of gender identity and LGBTQ studies, the Austin American-Statesman reported. The probe will look into courses at all 14 of the system’s institutions. Join us now during our exclusive Deal of the Decade. Get everything for $7 a month. Not as fans. As fighters. Go to DailyWire.com/Subscribe to join now. “The U.T. System has been reviewing courses on gender identity taught at all U.T. institutions to ensure compliance and alignment with applicable law and state and federal guidance, and to make sure any courses that are taught on U.T. campuses are aligned with the direction and priorities of the Board of Regents,” the University of Texas System said in a statement. “This review will be discussed at the November Board of Regents’ meeting.” Pressure has ramped up on Texas universities to gut courses that include diversity, equity, inclusion, and radical gender theory as President Donald Trump takes action against schools that push leftist ideologies. Texas A&M, which is not part of the University of Texas System, has also faced controversy in recent weeks after Dr. Melissa McCoul, an English professor, was filmed in class pushing pro-LGBT talking points and telling a student who opposed her to leave a lecture. The videos showing McCoul spouting radical gender theory in a children’s literature class at the university were obtained by Republican Texas Rep. Brian Harrison and first reported by The Daily Wire. Harrison then went on a crusade accusing Texas A&M of leftist bias and pushed for the university’s president, Mark Welsh to step down or be fired. Welsh’s resignation was announced less than two weeks later. Harrison appears unconvinced that Texas is going far enough to address LGBT courses at public universities. The state lawmaker responded to Abbott’s post on Sunday, saying that the University of Texas System is still promoting “LGBTQ Studies.” The University of Texas offered numerous courses on LGBT topics this fall, including “Queer Eastern Europe,” “Queer Latinx Aesthetics,” and “Black Queer Art Worlds.”
