Man who allegedly sprayed Ilhan Omar with syringe will plead guilty, court docs say

2 weeks 2 days ago


The man arrested for allegedly spraying Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) with apple cider vinegar has reached a plea deal after spending months in jail, according to court documents.

Anthony Kazmierczak, 55, pleaded not guilty in March despite being captured on video attacking Omar during a Jan. 27 town hall event and getting tackled to the ground.

The complaint claimed that Kazmierczak previously said that someone should kill Omar in comments years before the incident.

Prosecutors said Kazmierczak yelled that Omar was "splitting Minnesotans apart" before approaching her and spraying liquid onto her from a syringe.

Investigators later said the liquid was apple cider vinegar.

Omar defiantly continued her speech after the man was subdued.

"We will continue. These f**king a**holes are not going to get away with it!" she said to the crowd.

"I'm ok. I'm a survivor so this small agitator isn't going to intimidate me from doing my work," she wrote on social media after the incident. "I don't let bullies win. Grateful to my incredible constituents who rallied behind me. Minnesota strong."

The complaint claimed that Kazmierczak previously said that someone should kill Omar in comments years before the incident.

The Hill reported that the details of the plea deal were unavailable.

While President Donald Trump suggested that the entire episode was staged by Omar to garner sympathy for her, House Speaker Mike Johnson denied the possibility in comments to reporters.

"I don't have any evidence to believe that's true," Johnson said in January. "Look, we deal with member security issues as they arise. I called her as I do any member who has a situation like that, and I talked to her briefly."

When pressed on the president's claims, he added, "I haven't seen any evidence to that."

Former girls' high school basketball coach hit with 32 sex charges, including 'deviant sexual intercourse with a student'

2 weeks 2 days ago


A grand jury on Tuesday indicted a former Alabama high school girls' basketball coach who's facing 32 sex crime charges in connection with accusations that she sexually abused a student, according to multiple reports.

Paige Adams — former girls' basketball coach at Cold Springs High School — was arrested Tuesday and booked into the Cullman County Jail, according to jail records.

Before the accusations surfaced, Adams was described as 'a great role model for the young people of Cullman County.'

The 35-year-old was charged with two felony crimes: school employee engaging in a sex act or deviant sexual intercourse with a student and school employee having sexual contact with a student under the age of 19, AL.com reported.

Adams also faces 30 misdemeanor counts of a school employee distributing obscene material to a student.

Adams was released from jail after posting a $225,000 bond but is required to wear an electronic monitor.

"This 32-count grand jury indictment speaks for itself," Cullman County District Attorney Champ Crocker told WIAT-TV Tuesday.

WIAT obtained court records Wednesday stating that Adams asked the student to send her obscene material depicting sexual activity on at least two occasions, only days before she resigned March 25.

The outlet added that Adams sent obscene material to the student at least 28 times between Feb. 13 and March 9.

Adams — who was in her first year as the varsity girls' basketball coach at Cold Springs High School after being hired in March 2025 — resigned last month, and she was "escorted from school property," according to AL.com.

Cullman County Schools Superintendent Shane Barnette stated last month, "Our sole focus is protecting the students of Cullman County Schools. We are going to do what is always right, as we always have."

1819 News reported that Barnette said of Adams, "This is the first formal complaint I have received regarding this employee. As soon as the concern was raised, an investigation was initiated. The employee chose to resign at that time."

Before the accusations surfaced, Barnette called Adams "a great role model for the young people of Cullman County," according to 1819 News.

WIAT reported that Adams' husband filed for divorce April 6 — just two weeks before she was arrested.

Adams' husband — the boys' basketball coach at Cold Springs High School — requested sole custody of their child, according to WIAT.

According to court documents, Adams and her husband had been married since 2015, but they separated in March when she resigned.

In April 2025, Adams' husband said he was excited that she was hired as the girls' basketball coach at the same school as him.

Adams' husband previously told the Cullman Tribune, "Now we can be at the same place on a nightly basis. Secondly, being a head coach can be difficult at times. Us being at the same place and being able to support each other through the ups and downs was important to us."

"And lastly, getting to have a front-row seat to watch Paige starting her journey as the head girls' coach at Cold Springs is special to me," the husband said.

Authorities did not disclose the age of the alleged victim or if the teen was a student at Cold Springs High School.

Adams' arraignment hearing is scheduled for May 22.

The Cullman County Sheriff's Office and the Cullman County Attorney's Office did not immediately respond to Blaze News' request for comment.

Survey identifies majors that recent graduates regret the most — the top one is unsurprising

2 weeks 2 days ago


A survey found that college graduates who earned a degree in liberal arts regretted their major the most of all respondents.

The ZipRecruiter study surveyed 1,500 graduates from the class of 2025 and another 1,500 students set to graduate in the spring.

Overall, about 1 in 5 of all grads said they were regretful of their majors.

The report said that many of the regretful liberal arts majors wished they had focused on scientific or quantitative fields instead.

After the liberal arts, recent grads with political science, international relations, or public policy degrees were the next-highest regretful, with about 46.3% ruing their decisions.

About 39.2% of grads with communications, media studies, or public relations majors said they wish they had chosen another focus.

Overall, about 1 in 5 of all grads said they were regretful of their majors.

A separate report from the National Association of Colleges and Employers listed the bachelor's degrees most in demand from their member firms.

That survey found finance was the top major in demand, followed by mechanical engineering, computer science, and accounting. Also in high demand were business administration and management, electrical engineering, and information sciences/systems.

One of the bright spots for recent grads was for those who sought nursing positions. The ZipRecruiter survey found that almost a third of nursing graduates were able to obtain a job before even graduating.

Nursing majors also had the highest median salary upon graduation, which was $70,000 a year.
