Breaking: House Passes Bill to Establish Capitol Riot Commission

-

The House of Representatives voted 252-175 Wednesday to establish an independent commission to investigate the Jan. 6 Capitol riot. It now heads to the Senate for approval, where resistance to the bill is mounting.

The decision comes after Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell announced his opposition to the legislation earlier Wednesday, signaling that the bill may garner insufficient Republican support to advance through the Senate. Among McConnell’s objections was the concern that the commission could interfere with existing federal prosecutions of rioters.

The legislation will require a 60-vote threshold in the split Senate to move forward.

Breaking: Left-Wing Black History Children’s Book Distributed by Simon & Schuster Is Heavily Plagiarized

A left-wing writer and racial-justice activist who has claimed that American society was "instituted by racist ideas and maintained by racist policies" published a black history book for kids earlier this year that appears to be filled with content plagiarized from other sources, according to a review of the book by National Review . Confronted with the apparent plagiarism, the book’s publisher said it would be pulled from circulation pending an investigation. Rann Miller, a New Jersey-based activist and educator, published Resistance Stories from Black History for Kids in March. According to the book, it is designed to be a "place of entry" into the history of the African people so readers will be "empowered to fight" injustices in the world. Miller, a former teacher who has both a bachelor’s and a master’s degree from Rutgers University, also writes opinion pieces for the Philadelphia Inquirer , the Progressive Magazine, and education websites
