Two Michigan elementary school students were barred from performing music in an upcoming talent show because the songs referenced God.

The students, at West Ward Elementary School, were told just days before auditions that the songs they had selected were inappropriate. The musical selections were popular songs by American Idol stars Brandon Lake and Colton Dixon.

First Liberty Institute, a religious liberty law firm, said school officials told the students that allowing the second-grader’s song was a problem because it had “very clear language about worshipping God,” and that the issue with the fifth-grader’s song was that “not everyone believes in God.”

“It’s cruel that a school would threaten to censor elementary students from singing popular songs just because they are religious,” said First Liberty attorney Kayla Toney. “As the Supreme Court has repeatedly recognized, students do not lose their First Amendment rights when they walk through the schoolhouse gates. School officials need to comply with the law and stop censoring students’ religious expression.”

A school official told the mother of one the students that the song, “That’s Who I Praise,” was just “too Christian based.”

In its letter to school officials, First Liberty says, “As the Supreme Court’s holding in Kennedy v. Bremerton School District made clear, the First Amendment protects students’ ability to express their faith in public schools.

First Liberty called on the school to reverse its decision and allow both students to perform in the talent show. Otherwise, the school could be forced to explain its censorship before a judge.

people are permitted by our constitution to express their religious beliefs, including children singing songs about God at a school talent show

furthermore, not allowing the children to do so is abridging their freedom of speech

there already is a separation, but a school banning grade schoolers from singing songs about God in a school talent show is certainly not what jefferson intended

SAME AS NEWSPAPERS RECEIVING PULITZER PRIZES FOR THE FALSE REPORTS ON TRUMP/RUSSIA…

I THINK TRUMP SAID HE WAS SUING PULITZER OVER THIS

 

CBS scored an Emmy nomination this week for its "60 Minutes" interview that is at the center of a lawsuit that President Donald Trump brought against the network.

According to Fox News, the nominations for the 46th Emmy Awards for documentaries and news were announced this week, and multiple nominations went to the CBS program, including for the interview with Harris during the 2024 election.

In a statement, White House communications director Steven Cheung said, “Of course it’s nominated for best editing because it takes some serious talent to edit Kamala’s answer into something that’s coherent and understandable, which in the end they still failed to do."

Last year, CBS News and its parent company were sued by Trump for $10 billion, which has since been increased to $20 billion, over allegations of election interference after 60 Minutes showed two different versions of Harris' answers on the topic of Israel. The lawsuit from Trump accused the network of "deceptive doctoring" of the interview and claimed that CBS's edits were made in an "attempt to tip the scales in favor of the Democratic Party as the heated 2024 Presidential Election—which President Trump is leading–approaches its conclusion."

Last week, "60 Minutes" executive producer resigned, saying that he has not been able to maintain editorial independence as the lawsuit has been ongoing. CBS has refused to release the full transcript of the interview, which has been a demand of Trump in the lawsuit.

In a preview that was aired on CBS' "Face the Nation," when Harris was asked about the conflict in Israel, she stated, "Well, Bill, the work that we have done has resulted in a number of movements in that region by Israel that were very much prompted by or a result of many things, including our advocacy for what needs to happen in the region."

However, when the full interview aired on television, Harris appeared to reply much more succinctly, "We are not gonna stop pursuing what is necessary for the United States to be clear about where we stand on the need for this war to end."
