'Shocking and disgusting': 'Pro-life' Republican is livid that protesters keep sending him candy

Barbers Hill High School in Mont Belvieu, Texas punished a Black student named Darryl George with more than two weeks of in-school suspension — for having dreadlocks.

"School officials said his dreadlocks fell below his eyebrows and ear lobes and violated the district’s dress code," reported Cheyanne Mumphrey and Juan Lozano for the Associated Press. "George, 17, has been suspended since Aug. 31 at the Houston-area school. He was in tears when he was suspended Monday despite his family’s arguments that his hair does not violate the dress code, his mother Darresha George said."

Donald Trump's army of online trolls are increasingly confident they've helped bury Ron DeSantis in the 2024 presidential race, but they want to make sure he's "dead on arrival" for the next election cycle.

DeSantis was running neck-and-neck with Trump in some polls before entering the race, but he's usually more than 40 points behind now and struggling to raise money.

Legal experts this week are continuing to pile on former President Donald Trump for incriminating himself during an interview on "Meet the Press" this weekend, and some are telling Salon that he makes his conviction more likely every time he talks.

Jamie White, a defense attorney based in Michigan, tells Salon that Trump is making his lawyers' jobs impossible when he does things like say that it was his call to blow off legal advice given by attorneys he'd hired because he didn't "respect" them.
