Denmark: Video of Pupils Being Taught to Chant “Allahu Akbar” Causes Controversy
A video showing Danish schoolchildren being trained how to perform a Muslim prayer and chant “Allahu Akbar” has stoked controversy.
The clip shows a boy of African descent in Muslim clothing demonstrating the Islamic prayer to a group of mainly ethnically Danish children.
He is then interrupted by a teacher who instructs the kids to say “Allahu Akbar,” after which the entire class kneels in prayer.
“The prayer took place at Thyregod School in Velje municipality in southern Jutland in November 2018,” reports Sputnik.
After the video was leaked, numerous people called for schools officials to resign, claiming that children were being ‘indoctrinated’ into Islam. According to headmaster Gert Hougaard, he has “never experienced anything like this”.
The Danish People’s Party’s Martin Henriksen demanded an explanation from the school and whether parental permission had been obtained, but was merely told that this was a routine part of the curriculum.
He also asked school management if they intended to teach pupils Islam’s “dark sides and widespread fundamentalism,” in addition to its “massive religious and social control.”
Numerous similar videos showing children in European countries being taught how to adopt Muslim practices have...
Warren Confirms She Would Make Private Health Insurance Illegal. Here's What That Would Actually Look Like.
Here she is explaining her position:
From the New York Times:
Doing away with an entire industry would also be profoundly disruptive. The private health insurance business employs at least a half a million people, covers about 250 million Americans, and generates roughly a trillion dollars in revenues. Its companies’ stocks are a staple of the mutual funds that make up millions of Americans’ retirement savings.
Such a change would shake the entire health care system, which makes up a fifth of the United States economy, as hospitals, doctors, nursing homes and pharmaceutical companies would have to adapt to...

Watch as Every Dem Candidate Says Their Health Care Plan Will Cover Illegal Aliens
Moderator Savannah Guthrie polled the 10 candidates, asking for the 2020 candidates to raise their hands if their plan would also include coverage for illegals,
Every Democrat raised their hand.
“Remember, we’re talking about something, people are given a chance to buy into; in the same way there are undocumented immigrants in my community, who pay,” Pete Buttigieg said. “They pay sales taxes. They pay property taxes directly or indirectly. This
“And we do ourselves no favor by having 11 million undocumented people in our country be unable to access healthcare,” he continued. “Of course, the real problem is we shouldn’t have 11 million undocumented people with no pathway to citizenship. It makes no sense. And the American people — the American people agree on what to do. This is a crazy thing.”

Bank Of America Will No Longer Do Business With Companies That Run Private Prisons, Detention Centers
Bank of America said it will cease doing business with companies that are involved with running private prisons and detention centers.
The bank has been “discussing the issue for some time,” with pertinent clients, a company spokesperson told Fox Business in a statement.
“We have decided to exit the relationships we have with companies providing prisoner and immigrant detention services for federal and state governments, as expeditiously as possible,” the spokesperson said.
The company came to the decision after consulting with its environmental, social and governance (ESG) committee as well as internal Hispanic and black leaders, Fox Business reported.
“The private sector is attempting to respond to public policy and government needs and demands in the absence of long standing and widely recognized reforms needed in criminal justice and immigration policies,” the statement continued.
“Lacking further legal and policy clarity, and in recognition of the concerns of our employees and stakeholders in the communities we serve, it is our intention to exit these relationships,” the statement concluded.
Bank of America reportedly lended to Caliburn, a company that runs a facility called Homestead, which protesters have alleged functions as a sort of prison, according to the Miami Herald.
JPMorgan Chase announced in March it would cease financing companies involved in private prisons and detention centers.
Border detention centers have come under harsh scrutiny following Democratic New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s comparison of detention centers to “concentration camps” on Instagram earlier in June.
Ocasio-Cortez responded to Bank of America’s decision on Twitter, suggesting the move was a victory resulting from her...
