(SRN NEWS) – President Trump says he will use federal funding as a means of purging America’s schools of wokeness. On the campaign trail, the president vowed to keep boys out of girls’ sports and end classroom lessons on gender identity and sexual orientation. Mr. Trump’s education plan pledges to cut federal dollars to schools that defy him on these issues. Perhaps his most ambitious promise is to shut down the Department of Education entirely, a goal of conservative politicians for decades, saying it has been infiltrated by left-wing radicals.
The five-year campaign to rebuild Notre Dame cathedral has never been short of cash. Nearly one billion euros in donations were pledged within days of the 2019 fire that ravaged the most famous church in France and now there’s a surplus. Officials say 140 million euros still remain from the unprecedented outpouring of funds. That extra, given by both billionaires and small donors, will support future preservation work on the 861-year-old cathedral. Notre Dame is set to re-open to the public next month — just in time for Christmas celebrations.
The first batch of artwork from the Boy Scouts of America’s collection has raised over 3.7 million dollars at auction to help pay the compensation owed to those who were sexually abused by homosexual scout leaders. The 25 works offered up by Heritage Auctions were among over 300 from the Boy Scouts that will be sold over the next few years. Hoping to survive a barrage of sexual abuse claims, the Boy Scouts filed for bankruptcy in 2020. The 2.4-billion-dollar bankruptcy plan allows the organization to continue operating while it compensates survivors.
The leader of a New York City church where pop star Sabrina Carpenter filmed suggestive scenes for a music video has been stripped of his duties. The Roman Catholic Diocese of Brooklyn says Monsignor Jamie Gigantiello (gee-gahn-tee-EL-oh) has been relieved of “any pastoral oversight or governance role” at his church located in the Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn. The priest has apologized for approving the filming at Our Lady of Mount Carmel, maintaining that he wasn’t present at the time and didn’t realize how provocative the shoot would be.
