Parent Leaders for Accelerated Curriculum and Education (PLACE) won 115 seats on NYC’s community education councils (CECs) according to results released Friday, ChalkBeat reported. The councils oversee educational decisions including school zoning issues, which play a critical role in how NYC’s school districts (which often have highly disparate racial and economic makeups) are drawn. Ahead of the little-watched CEC election, left-leaning parent groups accused PLACE of being a right-wing voice in the culture wars, with its members promoting more openly far-right groups like Moms for Liberty and comparing so-called “critical race theory” to Nazi teachings. The group’s co-president called city schools an “oppressor woke environment where DOE employees make them pledge allegiance to their LGBTQI+ religion.” One of the group’s central platforms is endorsing school placement exams that critics have claimed create an unfair barrier to students from disenfranchised communities.

Jocelyn Wildenstein, who earned the nicknames “Catwoman” and the “Bride of Wildenstein” after numerous plastic surgeries altered her image, says she’s using an upcoming HBO documentary and an in-the-works reality series to tell her story and recoup some of her lost earnings, which she was initially granted after claiming infidelity during her divorce proceedings. When asked by The Times of London what her income has been, particularly after filing for bankruptcy in 2018, she was blunt: “zero—nothing in eight years.” “The documentary is her reply,” her fiancé Lloyd Klein said. “Jocelyn wants to tell the story with her own voice.” Read it at The Times of London ADVERTISEMENT 3 TRUMP’S EX-DEFENSE SECRETARY: HE CAN’T BE TRUSTED WITH NATION’S SECRETS ‘IRRESPONSIBLE ACTION’ CORBIN BOLIES Media Reporter Updated Jun. 18, 2023 2:37PM ET / Published Jun. 18, 2023 11:22AM ET Trump’s Ex-DoD Secretary: He Can’t Be Trusted with Nation’s Secrets Mark Esper broke down the gravity of Trump’s alleged mishandling of classified documents. 0 seconds of 1 minute, 7 secondsVolume 90% Press shift question mark to access a list of keyboard shortcuts Keyboard ShortcutsEnabledDisabled Play/PauseSPACE Increase Volume↑ Decrease Volume↓ Seek Forward→ Seek Backward← Captions On/Offc Fullscreen/Exit Fullscreenf Mute/Unmutem Seek %0-9 Next Up Trump Responds to Alleged Classified Docs Audio Tape Claims 01:49 facebook twitter Email Linkhttps://cdn.jwplayer.com/previews/CPVZdl43 Copied Auto180p720p406p270p180p Live 00:00 01:06 01:07 More Videos 01:49 Trump Responds to Alleged Classified Docs Audio Tape Claims 01:25 ‘Loser, Loser, Loser’: Christie Doubles Down on Plan to Take Down Trump 09:37 Trump Lawyer Gets Cagey When Asked About Secret Docs Tape 02:09 Sarah Palin Goes on Newsmax to Say Fox ‘Canceled’ Her 05:13 FBI ‘Called Bluff’ on Jim Jordan Hearing: Ex-Asst.

You cannot have these documents floating around. They need to be secured. We know how that happens. Only authorized persons that are allowed to receive documents or receive information from documents. So we’ve got to take this very seriously. These are serious issues.” Esper served as Trump’s defense secretary from July 2019 through November 2020, when he was fired by Trump by tweet following the 2020 election.
