A city in the state of Nebraska is under legal fire right now for allegedly barring a man from becoming a firefighter because he was homeschooled.
It’s so ridiculous, like, who cares how the man was educated? He is fit for the job or he isn’t.
At some point in recent years, the job of firefighter became politicized. People on the left decided that the profession had too many men in it, despite the fact that body strength is one of the most important aspects of the job.
In this particular case, the American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ) has gotten involved and they are fighting for this man’s rights.
Jordan Sekulow, who is a lawyer and part of the ACLJ, writes at Townhall:
City Banned a Homeschooled Firefighter. Now It’s Displaying Disdain for Homeschooling.
Andrew Coates wants to be a firefighter. He’s a licensed EMT, has earned recognition as “Rookie Firefighter of the Year,” and has dedicated himself to pursuing a career serving and protecting his community.
But when Andrew applied to become a firefighter in Fremont, Nebraska, the city refused to let him compete for the position.
Why? Because Andrew was homeschooled.
Despite Nebraska law expressly protecting the right of families to homeschool their children, Fremont maintained a discriminatory hiring policy that excluded Andrew from consideration simply because of how he received his education.
It didn’t matter that Andrew was qualified. It didn’t matter that he had already demonstrated his dedication to emergency services. The city shut him out of the hiring process because he was homeschooled.
When the American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ) learned what had happened, we stepped in to represent and defend Andrew’s rights.
We challenged Fremont’s unconstitutional restriction and demanded that the city stop discriminating against homeschool graduates. And our efforts forced the issue before the Fremont City Council.
See a video report below:
Let’s help Andrew Coates, and all homeschooled have equal opportunities for employment nationwide. Nebraska should be ashamed of these pos small town politicians.

WATCH: Black Democrat Woman From Michigan Explains Why She is Voting for Republican Mike Rogers (VIDEO)

Melanie Rutherford is a black woman from Michigan who is also a Democrat. This fall, she will be voting Republican for the first time to support Mike Rogers in the Michigan Senate race.
Rutherford knows politics well. She served as a member of the Pontiac city council and has always been a Democrat but as she explains below, she believes Mike Rogers will do a better job of representing everyone in the state, rather than a select few.
This is what Abdul El-Sayed is up against in this race. The black community is not on board with the radical new vision of the Democrat Party introduced by the DSA wing.

“I started doing my research on Mike Rogers. I’m a staunch Democrat…my policies align with Rogers. He’s about the conglomerate of people, not just a select few.”
“I couldn’t in my right mind vote for this guy…his ideas don’t align with what I think is best.”
“You can be ostracized…everybody knows me as a staunch Democrat.” — Melanie Rutherford

CBS Tried to Trash Trump Again, Now They’re Facing Another Multimillion Suit, This Time from a 15-Year-Old They Trashed
October 16, 2026
In what appears to have been an attempt made over the summer to impugn President Donald Trump, CBS News published bad information that’s now poised to potentially cost it $20 million in damages.
While covering the vandalism occurring at the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool over the summer, CBS News identified a detained 15-year-old Maryland teenager known as simply “JV” as one of the culprits.
But according to a lawsuit filed on Wednesday in the U.S. District Court in the District of Columbia, “JV” was not, in fact, responsible for any vandalism.
“He was not arrested for vandalizing it,” the lawsuit states, as reported by Fox News. “He was not accused by law enforcement of vandalizing it.”
(Source: The Desk)
According to The Desk, the media-focused news site that first reported the lawsuit story, “JV” was riding an electric dirt bike near the pool on June 20 when he was briefly detained and handcuffed but soon after released without charges.
Despite “JV” being released without charges, CBS News ran a report the following day showing “JV” alongside the actual vandals, according to the lawsuit.
“CBS News broadcast and published a story to a national audience that placed JV’s image alongside the assertion that five people had been arrested for vandalizing and ‘sabotaging’ the Reflecting Pool, thereby falsely portraying JV as one of the perpetrators of a highly publicized federal crime,” the suit states,
The lawsuit continues by referring to the accusation as “particularly damaging” in part because of President Donald Trump’s fury over the pool being vandalized.
“The accusation was particularly damaging because at all times material to the allegations, the Reflecting Pool renovation and subsequent alleged vandalism of the Reflecting Pool is or has been the subject of intense national attention and political controversy,” the suit reads.
“President Donald Trump frequently discusses the Reflecting Pool renovation and publicly condemned those accused of vandalism in extraordinarily harsh terms, stating that they should be ‘prosecuted to the max,’” it continues.
A few days before the incident occurred, the angry president took to Truth Social with that exact message:
NOW: President Trump says he now has to find a “VANDAL PROOF MATERIAL” for the Lincoln Reflecting Pool because so many leftists tried damaging it
Former Olympian David Hearn now faces possible PRISON TIME for doing this
“JV is not an animal, deranged vandal or scum,” the suit continues, referring to words used by the president (in other Truth Social posts) to describe the vandals. “He is a normal 15-year-old high school student who was dragged into this horrific spotlight by the reckless reporting of CBS.”
As a result of these combined factors, “JV” allegedly suffered “extreme embarrassment, humiliation, and … public condemnation.”
A number of critics contend that CBS News only went after “JV” in an attempt to portray President Trump as an authoritarian who arrests children.
The network and Trump certainly have a history. In the immediate aftermath of the July 2024 attempted assassination on then-candidate Trump, a CBS report highlighted the fury of Trump supporters, and CBS personality Margaret Brennan suggesting that Republican outrage would be to blame for “further political violence.”
In effect, Trump and his supporters were somehow being painted as the villains in the story.
In October of that year, Trump filed a $20 billion lawsuit against CBS after the network’s notorious editing of an interview with then-Vice President Kamala Harris that Trump declared was intended to make benefit the Democratic presidential nominee’s campaign. (The lawsuit was eventually settled with CBS agreeing to pay $16 million that will benefit the Trump library fund.)
The lawsuit filed Wednesday notes that while the original CBS News broadcast showed “JV” from behind, other versions of its report that made it onto the network’s website and its social media accounts showed his full face.
“The visual and verbal presentation published by Defendants unmistakably conveyed the false message that JV was among the persons arrested for vandalizing the Reflecting Pool and further confused JV with [David] Hearn, an adult who was subsequently indicted on a felony charge arising from the vandalism,” the suit reads.
(Hearn is an alleged Reflecting Pool vandal who was eventually indicted by the Trump administration. However, Hearn’s case was eventually dismissed after Jeanine Pirro, the former Fox News host who now serves as U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia, blamed the Department of the Interior for failing to reveal information regarding “flawed installation by the contractor.”)
The suit also alleges that CBS News went after “JV” either knowing that its reporting was false or “with reckless disregard” for the truth.
CBS News did eventually remove its social media reports by Aug. 6, according to The Desk. But the network didn’t issue an official retraction until Aug. 16.
“They Will All Go to Jail For a Long Period of Time!!!” – Trump and DOJ Vow to Jail Los Angeles County Election Officials Who Tabulate Ballots of Non-Citizens
October 16, 2026
The Justice Department on Friday put California on notice and vowed to prosecute election officials who tabulate unlawful ballots.
“California on Notice: Federal agencies identified over 20,000 suspected noncitizens registered to vote in California who have already been mailed ballots,” First Assistant US Attorney Bill Essayli said on Friday.
“Under 18 U.S.C. §§ 611 and 2, officials who knowingly tabulate unlawful ballots risk aiding and abetting a federal offense. The Justice Department urges the County and the Secretary of State to temporarily segregate the flagged ballots pending citizenship verification or face legal consequences,” Bill Essayli said.

Later Friday, President Trump vowed to jail the lawbreakers: “They will all go to jail for a long period of time!!!”
On Thursday, the DOJ filed a federal lawsuit requiring California to sequester the ballots.
The Justice Department had given California exactly a 48-hour window or face emergency legal action.
That deadline has now passed. The lawsuit followed.
The federal lawsuit, filed in the Central District of California on October 15, requests an order preventing the tabulation of ballots belonging to individuals identified as likely noncitizens until their citizenship can be determined.
Under California law, registered active voters are automatically mailed ballots. That practice has become central to the DOJ’s concerns about individuals who may be improperly registered.
The Justice Department said Homeland Security Investigations and federal partners examined voter-registration records and conducted additional verification work to identify potential noncitizens.
During the event, a demonstration showed the car hovering off the ground, then flipping over multiple cars and a semi-truck cab.
“This will be an actual car that’s on the roads. You know, I’m not sure it’s necessarily legal in all jurisdictions,” Musk joked. “But there will be such a car that someone can own, so it’s going to be pretty wild.”

Following this mind-blowing display, X user Maze posted a previous clip of blathering idiot Democrat Darling, Alexandria Ocasio Cortez (AOC), trashing Elon Musk as an unintelligent billionaire… with the flying Tesla in the background!
AOC: “This dude is probably one of the most unintelligent billionaires I have ever met or seen or witnessed.”
Here is this epic video by Maze.
Of course, this was posted on Elon-owned X social media. Epic.
