CNN reports that the new law represents the latest GOP-led effort to limit the rights of LGBTQ students in schools.

.

The bill applies to restrooms, locker rooms, changing rooms and shower rooms in public and charter schools.

Failing to comply with the new law, which applies to pre-K through 12th grade, can result in $1,000 fines for superintendents, teachers and principals.

The bill also requires schools to provide accommodations for those who would be prohibited from using the facilities under the new law.

However, the law specifies that those accommodations must not include , “access to a restroom or changing area that is designated for use by members of the opposite sex to an individual while members of the opposite sex of the individual are present or may be present.”.

The governor has said she will sign laws that focus on protecting and educating our kids, not indoctrinating them, and believes our schools are no place for the radical left’s woke agenda, Alexa Henning, Spokesperson for Sanders, via CNN.

Arkansas isn’t going to rewrite the rules of biology just to please a handful of far-left advocates, Alexa Henning, Spokesperson for Sanders, via CNN.

Melanie Willingham-Jaggers, the executive director of GLSEN, an advocacy group for LGBTQ students, argues that the new law uses , “trans and nonbinary kids as political pawns.".

Enforcing these bills would be prohibitively expensive and time-consuming for schools and extraordinarily invasive toward transgender students, Melanie Willingham-Jaggers, the executive director of GLSEN, via CNN

U.S Congress Orders DOJ To RELEASE Epstein Files In 30 Days | SHOCKING List Of Names To Surface Soon

Epstein Files: A political firestorm has erupted in Washington as the House passed a resolution demanding the release of all DOJ documents related to Jeffrey Epstein. The resolution, introduced by Rep. Ralph Norman and backed by multiple Republican lawmakers, orders Attorney General Pam Bondi to make all credible files public within 30 days. These include files related to Epstein’s detention, death, his ties to Ghislaine Maxwell, and internal DOJ communications. Though symbolic and non-binding, the move has fueled public pressure to unseal Epstein's elusive “client list.” Critics call the vote a partisan stunt, while others hail it as a breakthrough for accountability. Social media exploded with demands for transparency. The question now: Will Bondi comply? Or will the cover-up claims grow louder? #EpsteinFiles #DOJ #JeffreyEpstein #EpsteinList #MaxwellTrial #EpsteinCoverUp #Congress #HouseResolution #PamBondi #EpsteinClients #GhislaineMaxwell #EpsteinInvestigation #UnsealTheDocs #ChildTrafficking #JusticeDepartment #EpsteinDeath #CongressDemandsAnswers #EpsteinScandal #PoliticalFirestorm #AccountabilityNow ~HT.410~ED.194~GR.125~

Trump BLASTS His MAGA Base as ‘Stupid’, ‘Gullible Weaklings’ | Epstein Files Controversy Explodes

Trump has sharply criticized his own MAGA supporters, calling them “stupid people” and “gullible weaklings” amid growing controversy over the Jeffrey Epstein case. The Department of Justice and FBI recently released a report denying the existence of a high-profile client list linked to Epstein, a convicted Sex offender found dead in jail in 2019. However, many Republicans remain skeptical, suspecting a cover-up to protect powerful figures, especially given conflicting statements from Attorney General Pam Bondi, who claimed to possess Epstein’s client list. Trump has distanced himself from GOP members who accept the DOJ’s version, labeling them weaklings, while dismissing the controversy as a “hoax” fabricated by Democrats #TrumpEpsteinFiles #MAGAControversy #EpsteinFiles #TrumpVsMAGA #EpsteinScandal #EpsteinCoverUp #TrumpSpeaksOut #MAGAUnderFire #TrumpEpsteinLink #EpsteinDocuments #EpsteinCase2025 #TrumpBacklash #TrumpStatement #TrumpNews #EpsteinNetwork ~HT.318~PR.152~ED.346~GR.124~

Trump In Epstein Trouble: Obama Ready To KNOCK OUT Trump Ahead Of Midterms | Musk Snubs Trump On X

Trump In Epstein Trouble: A major rift has appeared within the MAGA movement as supporters turn on President Donald Trump. The controversy ignited after Trump publicly defended Attorney General Pam Bondi, a move seen by many conservatives as a dismissal of concerns surrounding the recently unsealed Epstein files. This defense has triggered an unprecedented backlash from his own base. The fallout has been swift and visual. Influential conservative figures have condemned Trump's stance, and viral videos have spread across social media showing die-hard supporters burning their MAGA hats and other merchandise in protest. This public display of disillusionment signals a deep fracture within what was once Trump's most loyal demographic. As Trump scrambles to control the narrative with a 400-word post on Truth Social urging unity, even figures like Elon Musk have taken public jabs at him over the issue. Sensing a critical moment of weakness, the Democratic party is moving quickly to capitalize on the Republican infighting. Former President Barack Obama is set to return to the political frontline, headlining a major fundraiser in New Jersey this Friday alongside DNC Chair Ken Martin. This event, Obama's first since the 2024 election, is designed to rally the Democratic base and frame the GOP's internal conflict as a major liability ahead of the crucial 2026 midterm elections. This report from Oneindia News breaks down the timeline of the MAGA backlash, Trump's attempts at damage control, and the strategic moves being made by Barack Obama and the Democrats.

Trump Calls Reporter “Evil” Over Texas Flood Warning Question, Defends FEMA Funding And Abbott

President Donald Trump lashed out at a reporter during a Texas flood roundtable, calling the question about lack of early warnings “very evil.” Visiting Central Texas following massive flash floods that left over 100 dead, Trump praised FEMA and Governor Greg Abbott’s response team, pledging swift federal aid. The Texas “Flash Flood Alley” region suffered rapid water surges, catching communities unprepared. Trump claimed “fully funded within minutes” and commended responders. He reiterated that such rapid flooding was unprecedented, dismissing criticisms. Republican Rep. Chip Roy defended him, calling the question “ridiculous.” Trump also avoided answer on future FEMA role. With casualties including at least 27 campers in Kerr County, the event highlighted his administration's partnership with Texas officials. His remarks stirred controversy over leadership tone and disaster preparedness in face of growing climate disasters. #Trump #TexasFloods #FlashFloodAlley #TrumpVsReporter #FEMA #GregAbbott #CrisisResponse #TrumpSlamsReporter #TexasDisaster #FloodWarnings #Evacuation #TexasHillCountry #DisasterFunding #ClimateCrisis #TrumpRoundtable #FloodVictims #KerrCounty #MediaScrutiny #RepublicanDefense #FloodPreparedness ~HT.410~ED.103~GR.124~

Orban Aide MOCKS Greta For ‘Failed Gaza Mission’ | Greta SLAMS Hungarian Govt Over ‘Ban On Love’ [Video]

Orban Aide MOCKS Greta For ‘Failed Gaza Mission’ | Greta SLAMS Hungarian Govt Over ‘Ban On Love’

Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg made a surprise appearance at Budapest Pride, turning the annual LGBTQ parade into a loud political statement against Viktor Orbán’s right-wing government. Speaking at the march, Thunberg accused the Hungarian leadership of trying to “ban love” and labeled the event a protest against what she called “fascist” attacks on human rights. Her presence quickly drew backlash. Balázs Orbán, political director to the Prime Minister, took to X (formerly Twitter) to mock Thunberg as a “young, angry person” offering “unsolicited advice,” also referencing her “failed Gaza activism.” The event highlights the deepening tensions in Hungary over LGBTQ rights and government control, as critics say Orbán's policies continue to shrink civil liberties. The government insists it is defending traditional values. Thunberg’s visit further fuels the culture war now at the center of Hungary’s politics — and one that's drawing international attention. #GretaThunberg #BudapestPride #HungaryNews #LGBTQ #ViktorOrban #GretaVsOrban #HumanRights #HungarianPolitics #Pride2025 #ClimateActivist #FreedomOfSpeech #BanOnLove #OrbanGovernment #LGBTQRights #GretaInHungary #OrbánCriticism #ProtestNews #GazaControversy #HungaryUnderOrban #EuropePolitics Also Read Greta Thunberg’s Gaza Aid Mission Blocked By Israel Amid Naval Standoff :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/greta-thunberg-s-gaza-aid-mission-blocked-by-israel-amid-naval-standoff-4175697.html?ref=DMDesc Greta Thunberg Leads Protest Against Azerbaijan Hosting COP29 Climate Summit Over Human Rights Concerns :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/greta-thunberg-protests-against-azerbaijan-hosting-climate-summit-011-3984443.html?ref=DMDesc Explained: Why Was Greta Thunberg Arrested At The University Of Copenhagen? :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/explained-why-was-greta-thunberg-arrested-at-the-university-of-copenhagen-3925483.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~GR.125~ED.346~
