The Federalist: How Trump Can Convert A Key Identity Politics Agency Into A Tool For Equality Under The Law
Under a potential Trump administration, there is speculation about a shift in the U.S. Department of Justice's Civil Rights Division (CRD). The division, historically focused on securing civil rights, has been criticized for straying from its mission and engaging in controversial causes.
Rep. Dan Bishop argues that a new approach is needed to address issues like voting rights, free speech, and racial discrimination policies. He suggests that Trump’s appointee could refocus the CRD on its foundational goals and hold accountable those who undermine civil rights, signaling a departure from the division's recent priorities.

Critics, including the TaxPayers' Alliance, are concerned about the rising costs and lack of fiscal restraint, urging the government to impose spending controls.

GB News: 'Vanity project!' Sadiq Khan blasted for 'squandering hard-earned cash' on woke Overground rebrand
Sadiq Khan faces criticism for spending £6.3 million on renaming London Overground train lines, which some call a "woke vanity project." Critics argue this expenditure overshadows more pressing issues like crime and homelessness, where Khan allocated just £4.8 million recently.
Transport for London claims the rebranding aims to enhance navigation and celebrate the city's diversity. However, opponents insist that Londoners would prefer improvements in service over symbolic changes. The new names will be implemented across 113 Overground stations starting November 25.
The Western Journal: Boisterous Democratic Rep. Jasmine Crockett's Bid for House Leadership Spot Crashes and Burns
Democratic Rep. Jasmine Crockett's attempt to challenge Rep. Debbie Dingell for the chair of the Democratic Policy and Communications Committee failed significantly, with Dingell securing 152 votes to Crockett's 59. The challenge was viewed as rushed and lacking broad support, highlighting the party's struggles after recent electoral losses.
Crockett, known for her confrontational style and social media presence, was the only candidate to oppose Dingell, emphasizing a need for modernization within the party. However, her past controversial remarks may have contributed to her defeat, indicating a potential disconnect within the party's leadership strategy.

President Biden has approved the shipment of anti-personnel mines to Ukraine, marking a shift in U.S. policy amid escalating conflict with Russia. Ukrainian officials have committed to using the mines only within their territory and away from populated areas.
This decision coincides with Ukraine's recent use of American-made long-range missiles against Russian targets. The move has drawn criticism from allies of President-elect Trump, who argue it could exacerbate tensions before his inauguration.

The Federalist: UN's Redefines 'Peace' To Revolutionize Classrooms
UNESCO's new "Peace Education" report aims to redefine peace and violence, promoting a political agenda that includes climate change and social justice as core issues. Critics argue this approach will indoctrinate American students, undermining Western values and national sovereignty.
The report broadens the definitions of peace and violence to encompass various social issues, potentially steering education towards a collectivist mindset. This shift could influence students' beliefs and values, prioritizing global governance over individual rights and national identity.
