Ed Sec McMahon threatens SJSU federal funding over Title IX violations

The U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights recently threatened to rescind funding from San Jose State University after becoming locked in a stalemate with the school over its Title IX violations.
On Jan. 28, the OCR issued a press release announcing that it found that SJSU was not in compliance with Title IX over its policies related to transgender-identifying athletes.
“OCR concluded that SJSU’s policies allowing males to compete in women’s sports and access female-only facilities deny women equal educational opportunities and benefits,” the letter stated.
...
Negotiations related to the resolution appear to have fallen through, however, as Secretary of Education Linda McMahon posted a Notice of Impasse to X on March 11.
According to the notice, SJSU “acknowledged receipt of the Letter of Findings and proposed resolution agreement,” and was encouraged the following day to negotiate and respond to the proposal by March 6.
University President Cynthia Teniente-Matson issued a statement on March 6, however, stating the school “informed OCR that the University cannot and will not agree to the terms of the Proposed Resolution Agreement” because it believes “OCR’s findings aren’t grounded in the facts or the law.”
...
The notice informed SJSU that the OCR will issue a Letter of Impending Enforcement Action within 10 calendar days if the university does not reach a compromise and agree to a resolution. Potential enforcement actions include the termination of federal funding and a possible referral to the U.S. Department of Justice.

The Ungodly Campaign to Destroy Erika Kirk
https://pjmedia.com/scott-pinsker/2026/03/21/the-ungodly-campaign-to-destroy-erika-kirk-n4950911 (https://pjmedia.com/scott-pinsker/2026/03/21/the-ungodly-campaign-to-destroy-erika-kirk-n4950911)
The jackals, monsters, and vultures waited until Charlie Kirk was dead. None of them raised their daggers when her husband could still defend his wife. None of them dared challenge Charlie when he walked the earth — because they’re conmen, creeps, criminals, and cowards.
...
She’s a woman of sorrows and acquainted with grief. She’s despised by the left — and influencers on the right — and it’s triggered a feeding frenzy of conspiracies so utterly dehumanizing, if you’re not morally outraged, you have no soul.
I honestly don’t know which conspiracy theory is the worst:
Erika Kirk murdered her husband.
She’s grieving “wrong” and therefore never loved Charlie.
She’s a liar.
She’s a child-grooming pedo.
She recruited little girls for Jeffrey Epstein.
She traffics children.
She’s having an affair with JD Vance.
She’s a phony and a fraud.
She’s faking all her emotions.
The only thing she cares about is money.
The latest violation of her privacy and humanity came from the clothing brand Alo, which, it seems, just leaked her personal data to TikTok influencers.
An employee at All hated Erika Kirk that (s)he looked up her account and leaked information from it. All has some 'splainin' to do, that employee should be canned for cause, and the former[p/I] employee having trouble finding a place willing to give her fryolator trying. The latter because of the gross misuse of company assets and violation of a(ny) customer's privacy, not specifically because of Erika Kirk (= Jane Schmoe from Kokomo should not have her privacy violated that way). BTW:
Only it wasn’t Erika who made those purchases — it was a Turning Point USA staffer named Elizabeth McCoy:
On Thursday, TPUSA staffer Elizabeth McCoy took to social media to explain that she purchased the clothes because Kirk was forced to quickly board a plane after learning her husband had been assassinated at Utah Valley University.
"I was the one who made the Alo purchase, in person, in Utah. When we got the call that Charlie had been shot, we rushed from the office and into the airplane. We arrived in Utah with nothing but the clothes we were wearing. We were in those clothes all day at the hospital and slept in them that night," McCoy wrote.
"The next morning, our friend Stacy handed me her card, and I went out and picked up some items and toiletries for various team members and Erika. Alo was down the street," McCoy continued. "To accuse Erika or anyone else of entertaining a ‘shopping spree’ hours after her husband was brutally murdered is cruel and vicious."
My emphasis.

Kathy Hochul: Oops, That Climate Law Was a Mistake.../b]
https://hotair.com/david-strom/2026/03/21/kathy-hochul-oops-that-climate-law-was-a-mistake-n3813110 (https://hotair.com/david-strom/2026/03/21/kathy-hochul-oops-that-climate-law-was-a-mistake-n3813110)
Kathy Hochul is up for reelection this year, and has a big, big problem: for all the talk about an "affordability" agenda, every single policy the Democrats like to push increases costs, reduces quality of life, and drives people out of Blue states.
And one of the worst problems she faces is skyrocketing energy bills, and the prospect that those prices will rise even more and faster in the next few years as climate deadlines rapidly approach.
The pressure is so great, both because consumers are pissed off and businesses that can move begin doing so, that Hochul wants to "delay" the climate goals she and the Democrats were so excited about just a few years ago.
Gov. Kathy Hochul on Friday moved to alter and delay the implementation of New York State’s landmark 2019 climate law, which calls for gradually decreasing greenhouse gas emissions by certain deadlines.
Those proposed adjustments include delaying issuing the regulations for enforcing the law — already two years late — until 2030 and amending how certain emissions are measured.
“We need more time,” Ms. Hochul wrote in an editorial that was published on Friday morning in The Empire Report, a news site that covers state politics. “So much has radically changed since the Climate Act was enacted, necessitating common-sense adjustments.”
