Teacher Fired For Refusing to Use Student Pronouns Awarded $360K Settlement
A California school district, which fired a teacher after she cited her Christian faith as the reason for refusing to use “preferred pronouns,” has settled a wrongful termination suit for $360,000.
Teacher Jessica Tapia filed the lawsuit last year following her 2022 firing from the Jurupa Unified School District (JUSD) in Jurupa Valley, after she expressed concerns with school policies regarding students’ gender identities.
Tapia also claimed the district directed her to withhold gender and pronoun preferences from parents.
Check out this news report on Tapia’s firing from March 2023:
“The directives required Ms. Tapia lie to parents about their children’s gender identity, refer to students by their preferred pronouns, refrain from expressing her religious beliefs with students or on her social media, and allow students to use the bathroom or locker room that matched their preferred sex,” the lawsuit stated.
“Because Ms. Tapia was unable to comply with the directives due to her religious beliefs, she requested an accommodation from the District. JUSD refused to provide her with any accommodation and subsequently terminated her employment with the District.”
Advocates for Faith and Freedom, the group that sponsored Tapia’s lawsuit, took a victory lap following news of the settlement on Tuesday, writing, “Today’s settlement serves as a reminder that religious freedom is protected, no matter your career.”
“Today’s settlement serves as a reminder that religious freedom is protected, no matter your career,” said Julianne Fleischer, legal counsel for Advocates for Faith and Freedom. “If the school district’s actions were legal, no teacher of faith would be qualified to serve as a… pic.twitter.com/iXaIIl8Q46

“If the school district’s actions were legal, no teacher of faith would be qualified to serve as a public school teacher. Jessica’s story is one of faithful courage. She fought back to ensure her school district was held accountable and that no other teacher has to succumb to this type of discrimination,” wrote Advocates for Faith & Freedom legal counsel Julianne Fleischer.
A disgruntled spokesperson for the school district shot back that the settlement “is not a win” for Tapia and claimed it “certainly does not state or prove any illegal action or discrimination by the District.”
“The District continues to deny any illegal action or discrimination against Ms. Tapia,” the spokesperson stated, according to MyNBC15.com. “As is clear from the settlement agreement, the District has not admitted any fault or wrongdoing against Ms. Tapia.”
Tapia’s battle inspired the “Teachers Don’t Lie” movement encouraging teachers to refrain from kowtowing to the left’s gender insanity and obsession with sexuality.
Last night, our client @RealJessTapia’s legal battle with Jurupa Unified School District concluded in a settlement of $360,000. We are joining forces with Jessica to launch TEACHERS DON’T LIE, a program that will provide ongoing support and legal help to teachers. pic.twitter.com/Q7AugLoltH

Just weeks ago, Trump’s attendance at the graduation was thrown into question when Judge Juan Merchan, overseeing his “hush money” case, mulled over Trump’s request to skip May 17 to attend Barron’s graduation, at one point threatening him with arrest if he disrupted proceedings or skipped the trial.
“If you disrupt the proceedings, you can be excluded from the courtroom and committed to jail based on your conduct and the trial will continue on in your absence,” Merchan reportedly told Trump. “If you do not show up, there will be an arrest…Do you understand?”
Here are a few more photos from Barron’s graduation highlighting Trump’s immense pride in his youngest son.

Shock Footage: P Diddy Beats & Slams Girlfriend Inside California Hotel
CNN has obtained March 2016 footage of rapper Sean “Puff Daddy” Combs assaulting his then-girlfriend Cassie Ventura inside a Los Angeles hotel.
BREAKING: Surveillance footage released showing Sean “Diddy” Combs beating his then-girlfriend Cassie Ventura.
The footage was obtained by CNN. The incident occurred at the InterContinental Hotel in Century City, Los Angeles in 2016.

Ventura claimed in a legal complaint that an intoxicated Combs punched her in the face and fell asleep, at which point she tried to leave the hotel room.
Combs then woke up, chased her down the hall and threw her down by the back of the neck.
After kicking her while on the floor, Combs dragged her and eventually started throwing glass vases at Ventura.
According to Ventura’s 2023 lawsuit against Combs, the rapper paid the hotel where the assault took place $50,000 for the footage.
Since she launched her lawsuit against Combs, five other lawsuits have been filed, with people accusing the rapper of rape, sexual misconduct, and other crimes.
The Department of Homeland Security raided two of Combs’ mansions last month in part of a human trafficking investigation.
Many people have suggested Puff Daddy was operating a sexual blackmail scheme similar to deceased pedophile Jeffrey Epstein.

UK Professor That Wanted Deadly Pathogen to Cull Population Also Praised NHS Vaccination Program!
A resurfaced message from London-based professor Bill McGuire, who recently deleted a post on X that stressed how a mass culling of humanity via a deadly pandemic was the “only realistic way” to avoid a climate disaster, shows him praising the vaccination program of the UK’s National Health Service (NHS).
“Public sector #NHS + #Vaccination programme = spectacular success,” said McGuire back in February 2021. “’nuff said!”
Private sector SERCO + Test & Trace = complete farce

Today, the NHS is now infamous for its handling of the plandemic.
The affinity of pro-jab individuals also being a depopulationist brings to mind Bill Gate’s very public exploits on the matter.
Watch Alex Jones break down alarming remarks by Gates and Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla where they essentially admit to conducting global mRNA and oncological experiments on the human population:
Moreover, McGuire also called Florida surgeon general Dr. Joseph Ladapo “bonkers” for urging residents against new Covid vaccines:

Hilarious: NYC Artist Unloads Dozens Of Penis Balloons Into The Air In Protest Of “D**k” Democrats
New York artist and activist Scott LoBaido sent into the air dozens of phallus balloons with the face of Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg and other Democrat operatives taped on them.
Judge Engoron, Judge Merchan and special counsel Jack Smith, key players in the ongoing anti-Trump judicial witch hunt, were also pictured on the balloons.
The stunt, filmed and posted on X this week, caused a stir as police officers tried to collect the floating genitalia while the balloons drifted out from the back of a box truck and bystanders laughed at the chaotic scene.
