Aiden Buzzetti is the president of the 1776 Project, and he believes parents need to take their child’s education into their own hands. “It’s important to realize that not every teacher is bad, but the ones that are bad disregard all of the rules. They want to make children their ideological slaves,” Buzzetti tells James Poulos, adding, “This trend cannot continue.” This creates a never-ending cycle, as the children who’ve been indoctrinated will grow up to be teachers who indoctrinate. “It seems like they’ve built a perpetual-motion machine,” Poulos notes. Buzzetti and the 1776 Project have been working to change the political landscape of school boards in order to stop this. “Right now, especially here in Texas, where we’ve done a fair amount of elections — the school boards were dominated by progressive parent groups,” Buzzetti explains. “If you have a group of parents who are willing to stand shoulder-to-should with you and make the case that something needs to change, you’re actually laying the groundwork for something substantive.” Though 80% of kids in America attend public schools, there’s been an explosion in alternative schooling options across America. “There’s more opportunities for parents to go to private schools, or charter schools and religious schools, even one of the classical Christian associations had their membership triple over the course of the pandemic,” Buzzetti explains. “That means parents are taking their kids out of a public school and seeing what their options are.” However, Buzzetti believes it's extremely important to continue to fight for change within the public school system and not abandon it. “It’s important that we stand firm on public schools, that we don’t necessarily abandon them,” he says.

President Joe Biden, who has issued a World Elder Abuse Awareness Day proclamation each year of his presidency, issued another on Friday."NOW, THEREFORE, I, JOSEPH R. BIDEN JR., President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim June 15, 2024, as World Elder Abuse Awareness Day. I encourage all Americans to be diligent; work together to strengthen existing partnerships; and develop new opportunities to improve our Nation's prevention of and response to elder abuse, neglect, and exploitation," the proclamation declares.'Right now, there is no way that President Biden is actually in charge.'Regarding the proclamation, GOP Sen. Mike Lee of Utah tweeted, "Is this some sort of sick joke? An act of mockery against Joe Biden—by the Biden White House?""Has someone made Jill read this?" South Carolina state Rep. Adam Morgan tweeted, referring to first lady Jill Biden.U.S. Rep. Matt Rosendale of Montana has said that he believes the first lady and those surrounding President Biden "should be charged with elder abuse."Actress Patricia Heaton has suggested that the president "is clearly incapacitated.""The Democrats must find a new candidate even if it's the slimy Gavin Newsom. Right now, there is no way that President Biden is actually in charge. So the question is, who is? Americans should know who is making the decisions. This can't go on for another four years should the Democrats win," Heaton said in a tweet."Imagine a wife allowing her husband's frailty to be paraded across an international stage in such an undignified manner in service of political power. Quite Shakespearean. And unthinkable. And yet here we are," she said in another post. — (@) Like Blaze News?

The French Revolution, a pivotal moment in history, was catalyzed by a culmination of factors, with corruption at the forefront. The ruling class, ensconced in opulence at Versailles, grew increasingly disconnected from the realities faced by ordinary Parisians. Louis XIV, hailed as the Sun King, established a cult of personality that excluded the working class and poor, exacerbating social divisions. Meanwhile, Louis XVI's lack of political acumen and his decision to dismiss reformist figures like Jacques Necker further fueled public discontent.  Read moreSection: NewsVideosHistoryImportant EventsRead Later 

In 1971, the Rosicrucian Museum in California acquired a sealed ancient Egyptian coffin containing the well-preserved mummy of a high-status Egyptian male. More than two decades later, a team of scientists made a shocking discovery – the mummy displayed evidence of an advanced surgical procedure carried out nearly 2,600 years ago. Inside the mummy’s left knee was a 9-inch (22.86 cm) metal orthopedic pin that had been inserted with such advanced biomechanical principles, that initially scientists could not distinguish it from a modern-day procedure.  Severed Limbs and Wooden Feet: How the Ancients Invented Prosthetics  Read moreSection: ArtifactsAncient TechnologyNewsRead Later
