OREGON<\/strong>. Settlement reached by ACLU in horrific bullying of gay Oregon students<\/a>: \u201cThe settlements remove Principal Bill Lucero from his job and require that the school district work with the American Civil Liberties Union Foundation of Oregon (ACLU of Oregon) to develop policies and training to prevent future discrimination. The district will remain under Oregon Department of Education supervision for five years\u2026Smith and Funk said the school was extremely hostile to LGBTQ students. Principal Lucero repeatedly failed to respond to LGBTQ students\u2019 complaints, including when his son, who also attends the school, nearly hit the couple<\/a> with his car while yelling a homophobic slur. According to an investigatory determination letter from the Oregon Department of Education (ODE), when some staff tried to support the students\u2019 attempts to raise their concerns, district and high school leadership retaliated. Lucero also made students recite Bible verses as punishment, a fact that ODE confirmed was known by Superintendent Bill Yester.\u201d Funk\u2019s essay on the bullying<\/a>\u2026<\/p>\n BELARUS<\/strong>. UK embassy slammed for flying rainbow flag<\/a>: \u2018In a lengthy statement, the Interior Ministry said the UK was challenging the country\u2019s \u201ctraditional values\u201d. \u201cThe LGBT community, and all this fight for \u2018their rights\u2019, and the very day of the community are just a fake!\u201d A spokeswoman for the embassy said it would not comment. Homosexuality is not illegal in Belarus but it is a taboo.\u2019<\/p>\n REAL HOUSEWIVES\u2026OF THE \u201960S?<\/strong> Bravo to send housewives back in time<\/a> \u201cinto a traditional decade where men<\/a> made the money, women<\/a> made the home, and teenagers<\/a> actually did as they were told.\u201d<\/p>\n STEFAN A HALPER<\/strong>. FBI source who assisted Russia investigation was veteran of Nixon, Ford, and Reagan administrations<\/a>: \u201cIn the summer and fall of 2016, Halper, then an emeritus professor at Cambridge, contacted three Trump campaign advisers for brief talks and meetings that largely centered on foreign policy, The Washington Post\u00a0reported<\/a>\u00a0last week. At some point that year, he began working as a secret informant for the FBI as it investigated Russia\u2019s interference in the campaign, according to multiple people familiar with his activities.\u201d<\/p>\n LOUIS SPENCER<\/strong>.

Millions of fraudulent comments were submitted using real people\u2019s names and addresses without their knowledge or consent. Some of those people even sent\u00a0a letter<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>to the FCC asking that the fraudulent comments made in their names be removed, and the agency refused.\u201d<\/p>\n NORTH KOREA<\/strong>. Trump admits summit may not happen<\/a>. \u2018Trump made the remark while he met with\u00a0Moon Jae-in, South Korea\u2019s president, for pivotal discussions ahead of the American president\u2019s planned meeting with the North Korean dictator. The summit is scheduled for June 12 in Singapore, which is widely viewed as a neutral site. Yet doubts continue to grow about whether the meeting will actually take place. Trump\u2019s remarks Tuesday were the strongest indication yet that the summit might not happen as planned.\u2019<\/p>\n BUT, BUT, THERE\u2019S ALREADY A COIN\u2026<\/strong>.

TRUMP\u2019S TWEETS<\/strong>. Aide ghost writers purposely misspell words and use bad grammar to sound more like Trump<\/a>. \u201cThey overuse the exclamation point! They Capitalize random words for emphasis. Fragments. Loosely connected ideas.
