Fox News: The Tim Scott candidacy: Upbeat, inspiring, and very unlikely to win
Tim Scott, the only Black Republican candidate running for president, faces a difficult path to the nomination due to Republican voters being predominantly white and his reluctance to criticize Donald Trump. However, his advisers believe that the more Republican candidates who run, the more they split the anti-Trump vote and make it easier for Trump to secure the nomination. Scott is a strong fundraiser and has the support of some high-profile Republicans, but faces an uphill battle to capture the GOP nomination.

Front Page Magazine: Black Lives Matter Mansion Fund is Almost Depleted
Black Lives Matter raised $90 million in the wake of George Floyd's death but has blown through two-thirds of it, spending $12 million on luxury homes. The group logged an $8.5 million deficit and a staggering 85% loss on a $172,000 securities sale in the most recent tax year. The charity spent over $10.5 million on contractors, much of which went to companies linked to Cullors's friends and family. The LAPD says Patrisse Cullors's cousin, Keenan Anderson, who Anderson's son's lawyers filed a $50 million claim about his shooting, caused a car accident in Venice, before acting erratically and being detained by the police.
The Federalist: NYT Polyamory Puff Piece Proves Christians Right Again
The New York Times is pushing for legal recognition of polyamory in a recent article on Somerville, Massachusetts, which has been granting new legal rights for polyamorous partner groups. In the article, the Times notes that interest in nonmonogamy seems to be on the rise across the country, with a significant crossover between those who identify as LGBT and those who practice nonmonogamy. The conservative Christians who predicted this slippery slope toward accepting any and all sexual practices as legitimate were prescient, as the left's morality is purely conventional and rooted in nothing more than feelings shaped by what public opinion is willing to accept.

The Federalist: Fairfax Schools Could End K-12 Free Speech With Tattling System
Fairfax County Public Schools is considering a new “bias incident reporting system” that would allow anonymous reporting of “discrimination, harassment, retaliation, bullying, other violations of civil rights.” Many universities already have similar systems, which have been used to suppress free speech, and Fairfax County’s proposed definition of “hate speech” is so broad it includes failure to use preferred pronouns. The “culturally responsive intervention” required for offenders would be implemented by the district’s chief equity officer, resembling a priest offering morality lessons with religious fervor. Meanwhile, the district’s history of responding inadequately to bullying incidents has raised questions of bias when race or sex are involved.
