Oklahoma State Superintendent forms committee for social studies revision
The committee includes conservative activists, such as Kevin Roberts, head of the Heritage Foundation, which led Project 2025, a conservative roadmap for a potential second Trump term.
It also includes Dennis Prager, who founded PragerU, an education group focused on teaching conservative principles. The conservative platform has been made its way into multiple states, with videos such as "Was the Civil War About Slavery?" and "The Inconvenient Truth About the Democratic Party."…

Weekly Roundup: Power Bottoms (Bradley Onishi and Daniel Miller; Straight White American Jesus podcast)
Brad and Dan begin by discussing the latest news from SCOTUS – Clarence Thomas’s many vacations with right-wing billionaires – by framing the entire GOP’s approach to politics as a will to power. Dan draws on a piece by a retired conservative judge in order to demonstrate that the American right has become the party of power and negativity.
Brad then goes through a litany of issues related to sex and gender: from reactions to the World Cup loss of the US women’s team to Matt Walsh’s comments on pansexuals to Praeger U being taught in Florida schools.
In the final segment the hosts analyze the mid-summer vote in Ohio and what it means for reproductive rights across the country.

Weekly Roundup: Klanned Karenhood (Moms for Liberty) (Bradley Onishi and Daniel Miller; Straight White American Jesus podcast)
Brad begins with a long discussion of the Moms for Liberty conference in Philadephia. He centers his comments on the long history of “housewife populism” that goes back to the 1950s. Drawing on work from Gill Frank and Melissa Deckman, Brad argues that Moms for Liberty stands in a long lineage of grassroots movements led by women using the mantle of motherhood to advance an anti-LGBTQ and often White supremacist agenda.

He also does a close reading of Dennis Prager’s comments from the conference – showing how the drive for “order” is the sacred value in Christian nationalist and right-wing spaces.
In the final segment he considers the category of Whiteness in relationship to the “color-blind” approach to race and racism that we are hearing about in the wake of the SCOTUS decision on college admission.

Dennis Prager baselessly claims Black students commit ‘overwhelming’ share of campus hate crimes - PolitiFact
The more general data that is available on hate crimes in the U.S., however, suggests that Prager's claim is far from the truth. The percentage of hate crime reports to the FBI that have turned out to be falsified is nowhere near "overwhelming."…

Dennis Prager Announces He Has COVID After Hugging ‘Thousands’ to Get It
…As for the so-called Zelenko Protocol, the unproven treatment was created by Monroe, New York, family practitioner and conspiracy theorist Vladimir Zelenko, a medical doctor who attended former President Donald Trump's rally on Jan. 6 before supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol. Zelenko's patients are given a course of three drugs he claims are prophylactics against COVID: hydroxychloroquine, an antimalarial that has little to no effect against the virus; azithromycin, an antibiotic widely used to treat sinus infections, Lyme disease, and certain STIs but is no more effective than a placebo against COVID; and zinc sulfate, which has not been shown to have any significant effect on those hospitalized with COVID…

Dennis Prager: People Who Say “Happy Holidays” Are Unpatriotic Radicals | Sarahbeth Caplin | Friendly Atheist | Patheos
Conservative radio host Dennis Prager says saying “Merry Christmas” over “Happy Holidays” is a form of patriotism, then compared the faux-controversy to heathen kids letting people drown.
It’s quite an odd pronouncement coming from a Jewish man....
