Most radical courses, curriculum that received federal funding in 2025
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
Over the past year, Fox News Digital has reported extensively on far-left curriculum and courses at universities across the country, many of which have sparked pushback from conservatives and parents’ rights groups.
This month, leaked PowerPoint lessons from a first-year education course at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign showed extreme left-wing bias on the topic of illegal immigration, as well as race and gender along with material that blamed President Trump for «white supremacy.»
Fox News Digital reported in early October on another college classroom controversy at the University of Oklahoma where a student who received a zero out of 25 on an assignment regarding gender norms says she was targeted for her Christian beliefs, citing a scathing response from the teacher’s assistant who doled out the grade.
This week, that teacher’s assistant was fired by the university.

At the University of Minnesota, Fox News Digital was first to report on a situation uncovered by Defending Education in which the university hosted a webpage warning against a «whiteness pandemic» that provides «resources» on how to «halt and reverse» the issue.
«If you were born or raised in the United States, you have grown up in the Whiteness Pandemic, and you can play a role in halting and reversing this pandemic, especially if you are White because of the power and privilege you hold in this racialized society,» explains the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities webpage, which is part of the Institute of Child Development.
«If you were socialized into the culture of Whiteness during childhood, it is not your fault, but as an adult it is now your responsibility to self-reflect, re-educate yourself, and act. If you are a White adult, antiracist action involves an ongoing process of self-reflection in order to develop a healthy positive White identity while engaging in courageous antiracist parenting/caregiving.»

The university stood by the curriculum, citing a «commitment to the principles of academic freedom.»
The Texas A&M University System Board of Regents released a statement in September, Fox News Digital reported, calling for an audit of all of its courses after a student was allegedly removed from a class for questioning transgender-related course content.
In the deep red state of Arkansas, Fox News Digital reported that a public university offers an interdisciplinary writing course in its English department called «Queer Childhoods,» according to the school’s course directory.
The course focuses on «evaluating academic arguments and on writing papers that make an argument and that utilize scholarly sources,» says a vague description of the offering on the University of Central Arkansas’ website. «The course is thematic, with instructors choosing topics and choosing an interdisciplinary set of readings focused on that topic.»

At Princeton University earlier this year, Fox News Digital reported the school is offering a course where students will study the intersection of gender studies and what the course calls the «genocide» in Gaza.
«This seminar explores genocide through the analytic of gender, with a central focus on the ongoing genocide in Gaza,» says the course description on Princeton’s website. «Drawing on decolonial, Indigenous, and feminist thought, we examine how genocidal projects target reproductive life, sexual and familial structures, and community survival.»
A student at the University of North Georgia spoke out to Fox News Digital saying that an assigned textbook for one of her courses labeled Christianity as a «U.S.-based white supremacist group.»
Kelbie Murphy, a senior at the university, paid roughly $100 for an assigned textbook in her International Public Relations course. In Chapter 8, the opening passage reads: «An internet search produces the following modifier for identity: corporate, sexual, digital, public, racial, national, brand, and even Christian (a U.S.-based white supremacist group).»
«The way it was worded, it listed several marginalized groups, but then only called Christians to be White supremacists,» Murphy told Fox News Digital in an exclusive interview. «But the scariest thing is that the book was written in 2007.»
At the start of the year, Fox News Digital reported exclusively that the Department of Education has awarded over $200 million since 2021 to forty-eight universities injecting DEI content into counseling courses that include topics on antiracism, microaggressions, White privilege, and Whiteness.

House Dem lashes out at ‘racist’ MN fraud probe amid major investigation in his own state
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
As House Oversight Democrats denounced a hearing on Minnesota’s sprawling fraud scandal as politically motivated, Rep. Dave Min, D-Calif., took it further — calling the investigation «partisan and racist.»
But back in California, state auditors have repeatedly flagged major programs as «high-risk» for waste and improper payments, raising fresh questions about whether Min is dismissing scrutiny he wouldn’t want aimed at his own state.
During a House Oversight Hearing earlier this month on the fraud issues in Minnesota, Min said, «We have not seen evidence of any type of fraud on the scale we’re talking about» in California. Min added during the hearing that he had concerns about the ongoing fraud in Minnesota, which has included a significant portion of Somali immigrant perpetrators, but said he had issues with the probe because it appeared Trump was only targeting Democrat-led states, and not Republican-led states as well.

«I have concerns about this hearing as well as recent actions by the Trump administration. It’s hard for me not to look at this hearing in the context in which it’s taking place and not see this as a partisan and racist hearing,» Min complained.
Fox News Digital reached out to the White House for comment on these accusations from Min but did not receive a response in time for publication.
«Democrats will do anything to deflect from the fraud that has been allowed to run rampant on their watch, including playing the race card,» House Majority Whip Tom Emmer said. «First, it’s not racist to call out criminal behavior. Second, I wonder what Congressman Min’s constituents have to say about him not taking fraud seriously when California taxpayers are also being robbed blind to the tune of $72 billion.»

A report released by the California State Auditor’s office last month found several state agencies wasted or misused millions, which follows other audits showing many billions being lost to waste, fraud and abuse in the state, according to California GOP gubernatorial candidate Steve Hilton.

«It’s totally ridiculous,» Hilton told Fox News Digital of Min’s comments that there is no evidence of California fraud. «We’ve already seen state auditor reports that have characterized tens-of-billions-of-dollars as being improperly spent, starting from the audit of state homelessness spending.»

According to Hilton, there are criminal prosecutions ongoing in California pertaining to homelessness spending by officials.
Meanwhile, seven state agencies in California have been denoted as «high-risk» for fraud, waste and abuse by the State Auditor’s office, while an extra agency was also added to the list of vulnerable programs that is regularly kept.
«Vulnerable Democrat Dave Min is more outraged by an oversight hearing than the billions in fraud hurting Americans in Minnesota and California,» said National Republican Congressional Committee spokesperson Christian Martinez. «For Min, accountability isn’t a principle, it’s a problem.»

Uruguay anuncia medidas de apoyo para productores rurales tras cinco años de sequías intermitentes
El tambo familiar del productor uruguayo Daniel Suárez sufre sequías, de manera interrumpida, hace cinco años. El déficit hídrico es un asunto que cada tanto vuelve a ser el tema central de sus preocupaciones, como sucedió en las últimas semanas de 2025. La lluvia no llegaba al país y las pasturas destinadas a la alimentación del ganado eran cada vez menos.
Suárez veía cómo los cultivos no lograban desarrollarse y se iban perdiendo, con la consiguiente pérdida económica que eso significaba, según relató este lunes al noticiero Telenoche de Canal 4. Tuvo que utilizar las reservas previstas para el invierno, lo que encarece los costos de producción. La cantidad de leche diaria se redujo un 50%, lo que derivó en una baja de entre el 20% y el 25% de la elaboración de quesos.
Historias como las de Suárez se repiten en el sur de Uruguay, que hasta este fin de semana esperaba con ansias la lluvia. Las precipitaciones llevaron calma a los productores rurales, que sintieron “alivio”, pero en muchos casos no fue suficiente y los reclamos al gobierno para que tomara medidas de apoyo continuaron.
Para este martes, el Ministerio de Ganadería, Agricultura y Pesca (MGAP) convocó una reunión para evaluar la situación provocada por la falta de lluvias. A la salida del encuentro, el ministro de Ganadería, Alfredo Fratti, aseguró que no existen “datos objetivos” que hagan necesario que Uruguay declare la emergencia agropecuaria (el nivel máximo de las decisiones previstas).
Sin embargo, se resolvieron medidas de apoyo para productores agropecuarios de Canelones, Colonia, Florida, Lavalleja, Maldonado, Montevideo, Rocha y San José, los departamentos más afectados por el déficit hídrico.
El Ministerio de Ganadería anunció que solicitará al Banco de Previsión Social (BPS) –el organismo previsional de Uruguay– que postergue los vencimientos del pago de los aportes patronales rurales. Con esto, las obligaciones que vencían en enero pasarán a mayo; al tiempo que los vencimientos del quinto mes, se postergan para julio.
De esta manera, explicó el gobierno, se evitan superposiciones de pagos.
“Es un alivio”, dijo Fratti al anunciar esta medida. Y señaló en una rueda de prensa que de continuar con esta situación hídrica, se deberán tomar medidas puntuales para el sector de la granja y para los pequeños ganaderos.
Otra medida anunciada por el gobierno fue la autorización para el pastoreo del ganado en caminos rurales y en rutas nacionales. “Es imprescindible para este momento”, argumentó Fratti.
Un reclamo del sector productivo era poder acceder a alternativas de financiamiento flexibles en este momento. Una de las respuestas a este pedido es que el banco estatal República presentará “nuevas medidas específicas”, según se señala en la información difundida por Presidencia.
Además, el Instituto Nacional de Colonización –otro organismo estatal– abrió una línea de crédito por USD 2.000 dólares –con una tasa de un 5% de interés anual– para pequeños productores familiares que necesiten dinero para el alumbramiento de agua o la compra de forrajes. Así lo informó el presidente de la institución, Alejandro Henry, en una rueda de prensa.
Henry agregó que el organismo trabaja en medidas de apoyo para proyectos de riego en las colonias. “Nos parece que tenemos que apuntar como país a estas medidas para el mediano y largo plazo”, señaló.
● Postergación del vencimiento de enero del aporte patronal rural al BPS
● Autorización del pastoreo en rutas nacionales y caminos rurales
● Apoyo técnico y divulgación de buenas prácticas para productores ganaderos por parte del Instituto Plan Agropecuario y del programa Procría
● Facilidades en los créditos e inversiones en agua para productores colonos por parte del Instituto Nacional de Colonización
● Facilidades créditos de República Microfinanzas
● Habilitación de una línea específica del Banco República para enfrentar consecuencias del déficit hídrico
● Concretar coordinaciones interinstitucionales para el suministro de agua para consumo humano y producción familiar, con OSE e intendencias.

Iran pushes for fast trials and executions of suspects detained in protests despite Trump’s warning: report
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
Despite President Donald Trump’s warnings, Iran’s chief justice called for fast trials and executions of suspects detained in the ongoing anti-government demonstrations, a report said Wednesday.
The remarks from Gholamhossein Mohseni-Ejei come as the death toll in the protests has risen to at least 2,571, the U.S.-based Human Rights Activists News Agency said. Other reports say the death toll is more than 3,000, with the real number likely to be even higher.
«If we want to do a job, we should do it now. If we want to do something, we have to do it quickly,» Mohseni-Ejei said in a video shared by Iranian state television, according to The Associated Press. «If it becomes late, two months, three months later, it doesn’t have the same effect. If we want to do something, we have to do that fast.»
Trump warned Iran about executions in an interview with CBS News that aired on Tuesday.

«We will take very strong action,» Trump said. «If they do such a thing, we will take very strong action.»
«We don’t want to see what’s happening in Iran happen. And you know, if they want to have protests, that’s one thing, when they start killing thousands of people, and now you’re telling me about hanging — we’ll see how that works out for them. It’s not going to work out good,» the president added.

Trump also vowed on Tuesday that those responsible for killing anti-regime demonstrators will «pay a big price.»
«Iranian Patriots, KEEP PROTESTING — TAKE OVER YOUR INSTITUTIONS!» Trump wrote on Truth Social. «Save the names of the killers and abusers. They will pay a big price.»
