(Jaryn Crouson, DCNF)—A professor at the University of Kansas (UK) told a class that men who would not vote for a female president should be lined up and shot, according to a video posted on X Wednesday.

The university confirmed the professor is employed at UK and made the comment during a lecture in the fall semester but did not identify him, according to the Topeka Capital-Journal. The instructor has since been placed on administrative leave.

“(If you think) guys are smarter than girls, you’ve got some serious problems,” the professor stated in the video. “That’s what frustrates me. There are going to be some males in our society that will refuse to vote for a potential female president because they don’t think females are smart enough to be president. We could line all those guys up and shoot them. They clearly don’t understand the way the world works.”

“Did I say that? Scratch that from the recording,” the professor immediately added. “I don’t want the deans hearing that I said that.”

The university said the professor regrets the comment and only intended to advocate for women’s rights but is being investigated.

“We are aware of the video, which was recorded during a class earlier this semester,” Erinn Barcomb-Peterson, a UK spokesperson told the Capital-Journal. “The instructor is being placed on administrative leave, pending further investigation. The instructor offers his sincerest apologies and deeply regrets the situation. His intent was to emphasize his advocacy for women’s rights and equality, and he recognizes he did a very poor job of doing so. The university has an established process for situations like this and will follow that process.”

Several educators have been exposed for inappropriate comments regarding the 2024 presidential election, with a Bellarmine University professor being suspended in July after posting “If you’re gonna shoot, man, don’t miss,” on social media following the first assassination attempt on Republican presidential nominee and former President Donald Trump. An Oklahoma education official also stated his plan to revoke an instructor’s teaching certificate after the teacher said she wish Trump’s would-be assassin had a “better scope.”

UK did not immediately respond to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s request for comment.

Musk has repeatedly criticized the state’s leadership since the COVID-19 lockdowns, even joining the California exodus by announcing his residency move in December 2020. Musk explained on “The Tucker Carlson Show” that he has been urging people to “reverse course” on the state’s current agenda, noting that Proposition 36, an initiative to toughen penalties for certain drug and theft crimes, is gaining traction.

“Well, actually, I think I’ve been able to persuade people that, yeah, we really, we need to reverse course here. I think I’ve actually been able to persuade a number of people. I think there actually is now a ballot, a California ballot initiative, to re-criminalize theft,” Musk said.

“So, and then, amazingly, Gavin Newsom came out against that proposition. Yeah, no, honestly, he’s the goddamn Joker. Gavin Newsom is like from the Batman, Dark Knight. The Joker is in charge of Gotham. You remember when he took over New York basically? The criminals run free and the citizens are arrested, that’s how — that’s California.,” Musk added. “But, I mean, at least there’s a ballot initiative, which I think will probably pass to say, ‘No, actually it is a crime to steal things.’”

If Black Lives Matter Grassroots declines to comply with Bonta’s request, its nonprofit status will be revoked and it will be taxed as if it were a corporation, according to the letter. The issue revolves around Black Lives Matter Grassroots’ failure to file 2022 disclosure documents even though a large liberal charity called the Tides Foundation had reportedly given it $8.7 million at that point, making it unclear to the public how those funds were used.

Black Lives Matter Grassroots leader Melina Abdullah kept the expenditures “intentionally private” by declining to file tax disclosures because “she didn’t want folks to know how the money was moving,” Black Lives Matter sources told the Washington Free Beacon in May.

While the group didn’t file a tax return in 2022, it did file a document containing inconsistencies in 2023. […]

The Trump campaign was forced to move an outdoor event for thousands of people into the comparatively smaller Prairie du Chien Area Arts Center in Wisconsin Saturday after USSS said it did not have enough resources to ensure the former president’s safety. While long-term problems stemming from a wave of retirements, recruiting struggles and internal nepotism will need to be addressed after the election, former agents said the USSS needs to shift its priorities in the short-term to ensure it can keep Trump safe without compromising his outreach to voters.

“This is going to be a very difficult season until we get to election day,” former USSS agent Tim Miller told the DCNF. “The Secret Service, unfortunately, is playing catch-up due to their lack of ability to protect him properly in the past.”

Congress approved $231 million of additional funding for the USSS in the stopgap government funding bill it passed Sept. 25 after the agency attracted enormous scrutiny following two attempts on Trump’s life, one a very near miss in Butler, Pennsylvania, and the other in West Palm Beach, Florida. Only about 20% of the Secret Service’s cumulative budget since 2014 has been spent on protective operations, the Daily Caller reported on Wednesday. […]

In the wake of the hurricane that tore through the region, Jordan Lanning discussed the five-day delay in aid by the federal government that he experienced in an appearance on “Jesse Watters Primetime.” Lanning also blasted the administration’s prioritization of sending funds to migrants over American citizens, which has left the community feeling abandoned.

“It’s too late. I mean, they took too long. It took them five days to get here. And it took five days for Biden to come here. And he didn’t think we were worth coming down to see him, us, himself,” Lanning told Watters. “He had to fly over on his way to Raleigh. It’s disgraceful. I mean, they keep saying we the people. No, there is no we the people. It’s them versus us. So they’re not for us. It’s all about them. They tell us what we need instead of listening to us.”

The frustration stems not only from the delayed response but also from financial aid offers that Lanning says many community members consider inadequate. The federal government has offered a one-time $750 payment for essentials such as food and baby formula to residents of Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia, who may also receive further financial aid for home repairs and temporary housing after registering for disaster assistance.

WATCH:

“There’s people that have lost everything. They’re home. They’re everything, priceless items that were worth thousands of dollars. And I’m not expecting them to actually give us thousands of dollars, but they can do more than that. And that it’s not worth anything,” Lanning continued.

Watters also touched on the lack of federal funds due to the allocation of financial resources to migrants, many of whom have entered the country illegally.

“Extremely angry. They’re putting other people before their own. I mean, I feel betrayed. I feel like we’re not worth it to them,” Lanning said when Watters asked him about the government’s financial support to migrants.

Since making landfall on Thursday night last week, Hurricane Helene has wreaked havoc in the Southeast, resulting in 132 deaths and nearly 600 people missing as of Monday. The storm’s impact has shattered homes, crushed cargo containers and swallowed highways in mud, plunging Western North Carolina into a crisis with severed roads and disrupted utilities.

The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) faces a cash shortage for disaster relief amid Hurricane Helene after spending over $1 billion on migrant assistance in the last two years, according to Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. Mayorkas said that the agency’s financial reserves are insufficient to cover the ongoing hurricane season, particularly with resources stretched thin for Americans affected by Helene.

Governments maintained by free elections, the free flow of communications and other democratic institutions are not able to engage in the kinds of long-term central planning exercises required to force a transition from one form of energy and transportation systems to completely different ones.

Why? Because once the negative impacts of vastly higher prices for all forms of energy begin to impact the masses, the masses in such democratic societies are going to rebel, first at the ballot box and if that is not allowed by the elites to work, then by more aggressive means.

This is not a problem for authoritarian or totalitarian forms of government, like those in Saudi Arabia, China and Russia, where long-term central planning projects invoking government control of the means of production is a long-ingrained way of life. If the people revolt, then the crackdowns are bound to come. […]

During an appearance on CBS News, the former Manhattan prosecutor discussed the “unusual” level of detail in the recent filings by Smith that could interfere with Trump’s constitutional right to a fair trial. The host asked Roiphe to delve into the evidentiary value of the documents now released to the public and explain how this might play out in a jury trial.

“When there are motions, those motions become public. and those motions contain certain factual allegations. I think what is unusual here is the level of detail. Now, of course, this is an important case,” Roiphe explained. “This is responding to a ruling from the Supreme Court that was fairly vague. And so it’s not that the level of detail is inappropriate, but there is a level of detail that one doesn’t normally see in motion filings.”

WATCH:

The conversation highlighted the former president’s concerns about the potential interference with his constitutional rights.

“And so, you know, I think that’s worth pausing and mentioning that the former president’s argument that this was interfering with his constitutional right to a fair trial, you know, it’s not a far-fetched argument to make given how much detail is actually in there,” she continued.

Judge Tanya Chutkan released Wednesday a redacted version of Smith’s detailed brief on the evidence concerning former Trump’s alleged election interference. Dismissing accusations of “bad-faith partisan bias,” Chutkan ordered the 165-page document on presidential immunity to be filed publicly, countering Trump’s legal team’s objections to its release before the election.

In a Tuesday filing, Trump’s legal team accused Smith of political motives for seeking to publicize witness testimony before the election. They argued to Judge Chutkan that while prosecutors will redact names in a significant presidential immunity motion, they intend to leave quotations from sensitive materials unredacted, a reversal from Smith’s earlier stance on protecting such information to ensure justice.

Israel’s government determined that Al-Haq was an “arm” of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), a U.S.-designated terrorist organization, in 2021. In addition to the Israeli government’s designation, Al-Haq’s general director, Shawan Jabarin, was convicted in 1985 of recruiting and arranging trainings for the PFLP and several of the organization’s members have made comments supporting militant extremist groups like Hamas.

Last year wasn’t the first time the Soros family’s philanthropic network has given money to Al-Haq. Open Society Foundations donated over $2 million to the organization between 2016 and 2020. The most recent donation, however, represents the first time the Soros network has disclosed a new donation to Al-Haq since the Israeli government designated it as a terror organization.

Open Society Foundations’ grant to Al-Haq will “support work on human rights, legal research and advocacy in Europe,” according to a grant database.

“For years, Al-Haq, a Palestinian NGO linked to the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) — an internationally designated terrorist organization — has pursued a strategy seeking to eliminate Israel as the nation state of the Jewish people and to legitimize violent attacks against its citizens,” an unreleased report authored by Israeli watchdog NGO Monitor and obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation reads. “A central aspect of Al-Haq’s activity is arguing to Western elites — parliamentarians, government officials, diplomats, academics, journalists and students — that Israel is inherently illegitimate.” […]
