‘Gender-affirming care’ is starting to run up against reality and it is getting really ugly for the people who pushed sterilization and mutilation on children. Recently, after journalist Michael Shellenberger released ‘the WPATH files,’ the credibility of individuals and organizations who have embraced trans activism has been called into question, and for one very good reason: they have no credibility. Now, nations such as the UK and France are either banning these practices outright or considering bans as more evidence comes out that justifies the French Senate calling ‘gender-affirming care’ one of the greatest medical scandals in history. The latest...

There are still some people who think that the Hunter Biden laptop really was Russian disinformation. Back in 2022, the government's new Minister of Truth, Nina Jankowicz, who chaired the administration's new Disinformation Governance Board, tweeted that voters had been fed "a fairy tale about a laptop repair shop." Some thought the laptop was real, but that the Russians had hacked into it and planted fake emails. Hunter Biden put the whole thing to rest last fall when he sued Rudy Giuliani for wrongly accessing and sharing his personal data, proving that it was, indeed, real. We reported a couple...

Data quietly published by a host of countries across Europe reveals that excess deaths among children are still occurring at an alarming rate as we enter the spring of 2024. The deaths cannot be blamed on COVID-19 because the data has proven the alleged virus and disease rarely harms children, if at all. And the terrible trend only began when the European Medicines Agency extended Emergency Use Authorisation (EUA) of the COVID-19 vaccines to children in the middle of Spring of 2021. Before this. excess deaths among children among children were in negative figures. With the year 2020, the height...

A lawsuit claims four students took turns forcibly penetrating a third-grade girl in a restroom stall, blocked her escape, and received one-day suspensions, OregonLive reported. The lawsuit claims employees of both Portland Public Schools and a Multnomah County-sponsored after-school program operated by nonprofit Latino Network failed to protect the girl — who was 9 at the time — from being sexually assaulted, the outlet noted. The girl's family filed the lawsuit in Multnomah County Circuit Court last month; it seeks up to $9 million in damages on grounds including negligence, lack of oversight, and failure to protect a vulnerable person...

WARNING: This story contains graphic images A gender clinic in Texas dubbed 'Frankenstein's lab' has performed hundreds of unconventional genital surgeries that many experts describe as 'dangerous.' The Crane Center for Transgender Surgery in Austin bills itself as a world leader in operations for non-binary people - those who don't identify exclusively with one gender. The surgeries include giving patients a penis and vagina, or completely removing their sex organs, essentially 'Barbie-dolling your genitals,' as one critic put it. The center director, Dr Curtis Crane, has previously bragged he couldn't 'think of a surgical request that I haven't been able...

This is Aptos High School in Aptos California. The teacher singles out her white students to remind them how privileged they are. “You privilege white boys always want to push it”. This is a normal thing in California schools. Even though she’s white, this is still racism.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis signed a bill on Monday that will prohibit children younger than 14 from joining social media in the state. Those who are 14 or 15 will need a parent’s consent before they join a platform. The bill, HB3, also directs social media companies to delete the existing accounts of those who are under 14. Companies that fail to do so could be sued on behalf of the child who creates an account on the platform. The minor could be awarded up to $10,000 in damages, according to the bill. Companies found to be in violation of...

Joe Biden on Monday morning heavily slurred his words as he spoke with “TODAY” host Al Roker. “What is so special about this egg roll?” Al Roker asked Biden. Jill Biden winced as Joe Biden slurred his way through an answer: “Well, what’s so special is this is the people’s house and [unintelligible] there’s over 40,000 people here – the largest ever! And we just like opening up the place and let the people see this is their place.” Things went downhill fast when Joe Biden recounted a bizarre story about his adult grandchildren sneaking into his bed. “What are...

In April 2023, Santa Ana Unified School District removed the Trevor Project Crisis Hotlines from posters at all K-12 schools, as well as from counselors’ business cards. I watched it happen. They did so because in February 2023, I and others showed the Superintendent and board members screenshots from TrevorSpace, an online chat site recommended to students through the Trevor Project. The screenshots revealed TrevorSpace could easily be abused by online predators taking advantage of naïve kids, especially kids in crisis. TrevorSpace advertises itself as a place to meet LGBT friends. It says that it is an affirming international community...

An appeals court in Texas upheld an injunction by a lower court that prevents the state from investigating parents who allow their children under 18 to receive "gender-affirming care." In 2022, Texas GOP Gov. Greg Abbott ordered state agencies to investigate parents who allow their children to have transgender surgeries or hormone blockers, following state Attorney General Ken Paxton calling it child abuse, according to The Hill. A judge ruled against the statewide injunction and on Friday an appeals court upheld it, as first reported by Reuters.

President Joe Biden’s Democrat administration is taking flak for prohibiting children from submitting Easter eggs featuring religious artwork for a contest. The event, which is part of the White House’s annual Easter Egg Roll, is called “Celebrating National Guard Families” but will not allow submissions to feature symbols related to the holiday that Christians celebrate all over the world, the Daily Caller reported Friday. The 2024 “Call for Youth Art” flyer said: On behalf of First Lady Jill Biden, The Adjutants General of the National Guard are asking youth from National Guard families across the United States and all U.S....

Author’s Note: Today’s article is not to state what you should do when it comes to the choices you make for your family. I am passing on vital information about schools being used, one more time, to overreach into those decisions, especially when it comes to vaccination. Regardless where you live, your family’s freedom to decide should be yours, and yours alone. Not coerced by a system which cares little to nothing about your family. LMT March 2024 is upon us. Have you heard or seen the February 2024 announcements from the Centers for Medicaid/Medicare Services? While this may seem...

Biden campaign co-chair Mitch Landrieu said Thursday on MSNBC’s “Deadline” that if former President Donald Trump is elected again, “our children’s ability to live in a free world” will be in jeopardy. Landrieu said, “What’s so critically important to remember is that elections are about choices. It’s about the past versus the future. It’s about values, and it’s critically important. When President Biden ran for office, he said, ‘I’m going to help restore the soul of the nation. I’m going to invest in the American people. I’m going to lower costs. I’m going to impact people’s freedoms.’ And he’s bringing...

Remember when Democrats made a big deal about how Joe and Jill Biden were putting 'decency' back on the ballot? Like Trump had been this villainous, grotesque monster stomping out decency during his presidency because he sent mean tweets. Or said mean things. We'd imagine if Trump had compared Democrats to Nazy Germany because they want abortion up to and including birth they would have said that wasn't DECENT. But it's ok for DOCTOR Jill Biden to compare parents who don't want their kids reading sexually explicit content in elementary schools to Nazy Germany. Watch this: Jill Biden, Ed.D., compares...

The world is waking up to the horror that is 'gender-affirming care.' Of course, that term is one of the biggest lies ever told, but it becomes even more horrific when it is applied to children. This weekend, the French Senate joined the growing number of nations trying to ban the barbaric practice of sterilizing and mutilating children before they're even CLOSE to an age where they are capable of informed consent. To date, Norway, Finland, Sweden, Holland, and the UK have either banned or placed severe restrictions on trans surgeries and hormones for minors, along with 22 states in...

<p>PHOENIX (AP) — A businessman pleaded guilty Tuesday to conspiring with the leader of an offshoot polygamous sect near the Arizona-Utah border to transport underage girls across state lines, making him the first man to be convicted in what authorities say was a scheme to orchestrate sexual acts involving children.</p>

In an effort to humanize the victims of abortion in the minds of young people, lawmakers in Tennessee, West Virginia, Iowa, and beyond are following in the footsteps of North Dakota with legislation to show high-quality video of unborn babies to children in government schools. Naturally, the abortion lobby is up in arms. Last week, the Tennessee House of Representatives passed the “Baby Olivia Act” requiring public schools to show videos of babies developing in the womb prior to birth. Earlier this month, the West Virginia Senate did as well. And similar legislation has already moved through a key committee...

President Biden wandered off stage at an Arizona campaign event after he was distracted by a young baby their young mom. The president, 81, made a beeline for the youngster while his campaign manager introduced him at a Mexican diner in Phoenix on Tuesday. 'Well folks, I have to tell you straight up... I like you all, but I couldn't resist that baby,' he told the audience, which appeared to be only a few dozen people.
