Opposing sides came out to rally outside the offices of the Castro Valley Unified School District Wednesday. The cause? A series of progress pride flag murals that are being painted on the grounds of every school in the district.

"All this project is about is creating a safer school environment for every kid," said Austin Brucker of Castro Valley Pride.

The idea for the murals began as a student-led initiative - and the school board approved the plan earlier this year.

Supporters say they'll be a sign that the district is an inclusive and safe place for everyone.

Especially during a time when many in the LGBTQ community feel like they're under political attack.

"I'd say 80% of the school is supportive. Like, very supportive," said student, Nolan Stoneburner.

The murals have gained national attention in recent days after the story got picked up by multiple right wing outlets.

"For the past week, the school district as well as Castro Valley Pride, have been the direct targets of hundreds and hundreds of hateful comments and emails and calls," said Bruckner.

Pride flag murals at Castro Valley schools cause opposing rallies, gain national attention.

A Brooklyn-based federal judge was selected on Thursday to serve as an independent arbiter to review the materials seized in the FBI's search of former President Donald Trump's Florida home. 

The special master will be Senior Judge Raymond Dearie, who was put forward as a possible candidate for the special master role by Trump, who had sued in court to obtain the review. The Justice Department also endorsed Dearie's appointment. 

US District Judge Aileen Cannon also rejected the Justice Department's bid to resume its criminal investigation into classified documents seized at Mar-a-Lago last month. The denial sets the stage for the department's dispute with Trump over the search to move quickly to an appeals court and potentially the US Supreme Court.

An intelligence community review of the documents has been paused since last week when Cannon ordered the criminal investigation to stop for the moment. DOJ says the two reviews cannot be separated and plans to appeal.

Two planes carrying migrants were sent by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis to Martha's Vineyard on Wednesday night, his office said, infuriating Democratic politicians and prompting a frenzied response that included humanitarian aid by locals and assistance by Massachusetts officials.

It's the latest in a series of moves by Republican governors to transport migrants to northern liberal enclaves to protest what they say are inadequate federal efforts on southern border security. Located off the coast of Massachusetts and long known as a posh summer destination for wealthy vacationers, Martha's Vineyard provided an unusual and unexpected place for the migrants to be sent.

"We are not a sanctuary state, and it's better to be able to go to a sanctuary jurisdiction, and yes, we will help facilitate that transport for you to be able to go to greener pastures," DeSantis said on Thursday, a day after claiming credit for sending the two planes to the island. "Every community in America should be sharing in the burdens. It shouldn't all fall on a handful of red states."
