The Last Word.... 

President Trump on Wednesday said he was canceling the livestream of the execution of Nidal Malik Hasan, the former U.S. Army major who killed 13 people in the 2009 attack on Fort Hood. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth had said the execution would be livestreamed, a decision that had come under substantial criticism, including from GOP senators who said it would bring the U.S. to the level of terrorist groups who broadcast executions.

 

Two church non-profits have taken in at least $62 million to build the Somali community in Minnesota leading to the rise of Ilhan Omar and the fraud scandals that have gripped that state, The Post can reveal. Catholic Charities and Lutheran Social Services were at the forefront of reshaping the frigid Land of 10,000 Lakes thanks to generous government contracts stemming back generations.

 

The latest Gallup survey finds only 1 in 3 K-12 educators feels a strong sense of mattering at school, with fewer than half of undervalued staff planning to remain in education. A new report released today by the Walton Family Foundation, Gallup, and The Mattering Institute shows that educator burnout is deeply tied to whether K-12 teachers feel valued by their school communities. The findings show that 1 in 5 teachers don’t think they matter much or at all and barely a third say they matter a great deal. Among those who lack a sense of mattering, 68% are frequently burned out, and fewer than half plan to remain in education.

The low levels of mattering persist across gender, race, ethnicity, subject area and grade level, demonstrating that the challenge is systemic to school environments rather than tied to any individual demographic."The findings of our study reveal a troubling gap: Too few of America’s K–12 educators feel they truly matter. But they also point to a path forward, with simple, research-backed practices that school leaders, parents and communities can use to help educators feel valued, supported, and able to see the difference they make,” said Jennifer Wallace, New York Times bestselling author and founder of The Mattering Institute. “The people who help our children know they matter deserve to know they matter, too."

October 16, 2026 - Interview with Ken Versteeg from the Community Blood Bank

A man with a gun stopped a school shooting yesterday in Bend. Oregon. Three children and a teacher are dead at Silver Rail Elementary. The kids were five, eight and eleven. The shooter was 16. He had a shotgun and he shot his way through the locked doors. Police were there in about three minutes. That is fast. It was not fast enough to keep those children alive. 

A bystander ended it. He saw the shooter go in and followed him through the same doors. He shot him dead inside the building before officers finished clearing it. Federal sources say the man had a concealed-carry permit. He was legally armed.
