Lesbian Feminist Scholar: Transgendering Kids Is ‘Child Abuse’

/0 Comments/in , /by

A 2015 video of feminist scholar Camille Paglia calling transgender hormone treatments for young children and teens “child abuse” has re-surfaced on the internet.

“I think that the transgender propagandists make wildly inflated claims about the multiplicity of gender. Sex re-assignment surgery, even today, with all of its…advances, cannot in fact, change anyone’s sex,” said Paglia.

“You can define yourself as a trans man or a trans woman [or] one of these new gradations along the scale, but ultimately every single cell in the human body – the DNA in that cell remains coded for your biological birth [sex],” she continued.

“There are a lot of lies being propagated at the present moment, which I think is not in anyone’s best interest,” she added. (Read more from “Lesbian Feminist Scholar: Transgendering Kids Is ‘Child Abuse'” HERE)

U.S. Judge Tells Christian Churches They Must Cover Abortion in Insurance Plan

/0 Comments/in , /by

A federal judge told three Christian congregations in California that they have no case in wanting to opt out of the state’s requirement that they cover abortions through their health insurance plans.

U.S. District Court Judge Kimberly Mueller upheld a 2014 requirement of the California Department of Managed Health Care (DMHC) that all employers throughout the state must pay for abortion insurance for their employees. She told the three churches that they failed to state an adequate claim.

The churches — Foothill Church in Glendora, Calvary Chapel Chino Hills in Chino, and The Shepherd of the Hills Church in Porter Ranch — sued the state in 2014 after being informed that they could not prohibit or restrict coverage for elective abortions . . .

The DMHC reclassified abortion as “a basic health care service” in 2014 under ObamaCare, making abortion insurance a mandatory provision for all business, regardless of the employer’s sincerely held beliefs.

Children Held Hostage During Disturbing 9/11 Drill by School Official Threatening to Kill Them

/0 Comments/in , /by

In America’s modern-day police state, it seems the state knows no bounds as to how far it will go to keep children and adults in a perpetual state of fear. A recent lawsuit out of Hawaii illustrates the extent of the American fear culture and how its insanity is tormenting and traumatizing America’s youth.

For more than 10 minutes, middle school children were held hostage by a raging lunatic in a mask, swinging a hammer while threatening to kill them all. Naturally, officials claim this drill, involving a school official wearing a mask and holding a hammer while threatening to kill children, was done for the “safety of those children.” Well, Michelle and Eddie Chavez aren’t buying that excuse.

According to a report from Courthouse News, the couple has since filed a federal lawsuit over this incident.

An abusive lockdown drill in which a masked man threatened a middle-school classroom with a hammer left the entire class in tears and at least one girl with post-traumatic stress disorder, her parents say in court.

Michelle and Eddie Chavis sued Hawaii and the state Department of Education on Sept. 7 in First Circuit state Court.

According to the bizarre complaint, their daughter and her class at Kaimuki Middle were watching a video about the Sept. 11, 2001 terror attacks on Sept. 11, 2015. Suddenly, “a man wearing a mask rushed into the classroom swinging a large hammer while threatening the students with serious bodily injury and/or death,” the complaint states.

The complaint continues: “Minor and her classmates were immediately placed in fear for their lives. The masked man then walked out of the classroom with the classroom teacher running out behind the masked man, apparently in pursuit of the masked man. Upon the classroom teacher’s return, the teacher locked the classroom doors and called the school office to notify the school administration of the masked man.

“Minor and other students in the classroom were crying and feared for their lives, as they believed they were going to be killed. The classroom teacher was pacing around the classroom and appeared scared, as well.”

Only then, the parents say, did the school administration announce that it was a lockdown drill, planned ahead of time, “to be as realistic as possible.”

The Chavis’s daughter already had been under the case of a psychologist for two years, and the school knew it, they say. She continues to suffer from the stress of the drill, and post-traumatic stress syndrome.

Her parents seek damages and special damages for negligence, breach of duty of care, personal injuries, medical expenses and loss of enjoyment of life.

They are represented by Harrison Kiehm.

After the drill first became public in 2015, school officials were quick to defend the decision. In response to an inquiry from KHON 2 news, the Department of Education released a statement at the time noting, “Safety drills provide real-life situations where schools can analyze areas of strengths and weaknesses. In order to accomplish this, students are not notified when a drill will take place.”

According to KHON, the principal at Kaimuki Middle School told KHON2 sometimes they do notify students about these lockdown drills and sometimes they don’t, and they don’t plan on changing that because they want to make sure they know how students will react during these very different situations.

According to psychologist Dr. Suzanne Gelb, however, these experiences “can be very devastating. It can result in nightmares. It can be a result in a resurgence of problem behaviors that maybe were taken care of already, like rebelliousness, acting out.” Many of the parents whose children witnessed this drill agree.

Parents, who did not want to be identified, told KHON2 their kids were in tears and terrorized by the scene.

“(My child has had) sleepless nights since it’s happened, very anxious, concerned about going to school,” one parent said.

The student said at least six kids in her class were crying during the drill.

Another parent said her daughter “was afraid, and she was crying, and another friend was crying as well, and they thought they were going to die.”

What, exactly, the school was attempting to ‘teach’ the kids with this drill remains to be seen. No lessons were learned and the end result was simply a long list of traumatized children.

Muslims Make Ridiculous Demand When Suing California Cafe

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Several Muslim women who insisted that their identities be concealed in a discrimination lawsuit against a California restaurant, claiming their safety was at risk, have gone on the record anyway by posting comments on social media and granting interviews to television stations.

The target of the suit, Urth Caffe of Laguna Beach, California, is now asking permission of the court to add the full names of the women to the lawsuit and to a counter-suit filed by the restaurant, according to a new filing.

WND reported the case arose after restaurant workers asked, in keeping with restaurant policy, a group of Muslim women to move or share their tables in a popular spot at the eatery on a busy night.

The women responded with a discrimination lawsuit against the restaurant, and the restaurant answered with a counter-suit against the women, charging they were engaging in Islamic “lawfare.”

The women had been asked by restaurant workers to abide by a publicly promoted policy to give up or share popular patio tables after 45 minutes. But they refused and eventually left only after police were called. (Read more from “Muslims Make Ridiculous Demand When Suing California Cafe” HERE)

Bannon Claims Trump Made Conscious Decision To “Totally Embrace the Establishment” Within 48 Hours of Election

/0 Comments/in , , /by

In his interview with Charlie Rose, Bannon admitted that within the first 48 hours after the November election, the Trump family had made the decision to “totally embrace the establishment” and depend on them for staffing. That meant Republicans In Name Only in almost all of the top positions and liberal Democrat holdovers in most of the second tier positions and the bureaucracy. And that meant that there would not be any real attempt to drain the swamp.

And, since personnel is policy, that meant that Trump would not be able to implement those salient and crucial parts of his agenda which had attracted his mass following for his rallies and his supporters in talk radio and the minority of the conservative movement that supported him. (Bannon admitted to Rose that he endorsed this decision, and strongly implied that he did so because he also was lacking in self-confidence and also that he did not have the clout to challenge Ivanka and Jared on this since they had already got the president on board with the decision.)

Steve Bannon stated: “In the 48 hours after we won, there’s a fundamental decision that was made. You might call it the original sin of the administration. We embraced the establishment. I mean, we totally embraced the establishment. I think in President Trump’s mind, or President-elect Trump’s mind, in Jared’s mind, in the family’s mind, I actually agreed with the decision. ‘Cause ya had to staff a government. And to be brutally frank. You know, the campaign look, I’d never been on a campaign in my entire life, right? You know, I’m a former investment banker who’s a media guy, running a little website. We were– our whole campaign was a little bit the island of misfit toys. So he looks around and I’m wearing my combat jacket, I haven’t shaved, I got, you know, my hair’s down to here, and he says he’s thinking. “Hey, I’ve gotta put together a government. I’ve gotta really staff up something. I need to embrace the establishment.” ‘

It is clear from the elevation of General Kelly to his position as white house dictator and the president’s baby-sitter (and his relentless purge of those committed to Trump’s campaign agenda) that the Trump family (and in a real sense the president himself) has little confidence in either the President’s agenda or his judgment. Kelly appointed as his deputy Kirstjen Nielsen, a woman who when she worked with him at Homeland Security was notorious for her open and vehement contempt for the President and his supporters. Both she and Kelly are as establishment as they come, the Swamp personified.

So the Trump family has just doubled down on the decision that they made in the first 48 hours after the election. It is one thing to posture and promise boldly before mass rallies in an election campaign, but it is another to put together an administration that will genuinely fight to make those promises come true.

Where in the World Is Sen. Bob Menendez, New Jersey DEMOCRAT?

/0 Comments/in , /by

Congress has a busy few months ahead of it, but one member won’t be around for much of it. Instead, he’ll be in a federal courtroom in New Jersey, standing trial in the Senate’s biggest corruption trial in a generation.

The congressman in question is Sen. Bob Menendez, a Democrat from New Jersey. (Bonus points: Guess which one of those descriptors the New York Times glossed over at first.) He’ll be standing trial with his longtime friend, Florida ophthalmologist and alleged “patron” Dr. Salomon Melgen, on 18 counts of fraud and bribery.

Prosecutors allege that the pair engaged in a years-long pay-for-play relationship, in which Menendez “sold his office” for cushy vacations and political donations, while kicking back various favors that benefitted Melgen both personally and professionally.

Both men have plead not guilty and deny the claims.

But it’s not just the senator in hot water; he’s bringing the rest of his Senate colleagues with him.

The federal judge in the case had denied Menendez’s requests to work around his legislative schedule, and with such a busy legislative session between now and the end of the year, Menendez taking time away from the chamber is going to put a real strain on the Democrat minority when every single vote counts.

On a recent episode of CRTV’s Capitol Hill Brief, we ask: “Where in the world is Sen. Bob Menendez?” and come up with one clear answer: In a whole heap of trouble.

Can’t We Talk? No, We Can’t

/0 Comments/in , /by

There is a new film out by Pamela Geller, Can’t We Talk About This? Those were the last words spoken by Theo Van Gogh as he was being murdered at 9 in the morning on a main thoroughfare in Amsterdam. I urge you to watch and support this film.

Van Gogh was a good friend of Pam’s. He had just completed a short film with Ayaan Hirsi Ali, titled Submission. It describes the treatment of women under Islam. Mohammed Bouyeri, a Moroccan-Dutch Muslim, took offense at the film and shot Van Gogh as he was riding to work on his bike. Bouyeri then stabbed Van Gogh, cutting his neck in an attempt to behead him. He used a second knife to pin a note on Van Gogh’s body.

The note was addressed to Ali and others, including Jews, Netherlands politicians, and a long list of the usual suspects. Fraught with misspellings, the five-page letter started:

Dear miss Hirshi Ali,

Since your appearence in the political arena of the Netherlands you are constantly engaging in terrorizing Muslims and Islam with your remarks. You are not the first at this and will also not be the last who has joined the crusade against Islam.

With your defection you have not only turned your back on the Truth, but you also march along the ranks of the soldiers of evil. You mince no words about your hostility against Islam, and for this your masters have rewarded you with a seat in parliament.

They have found in you a companion in their crusade against Islam and Muslims.

A companion who gives them the “gunpowder” so they don’t have to do the dirty work…

Did you catch that? Hirsi Ali is terrorizing Muslims by talking about her treatment at their hands.

Right.

I would like to believe Mr. Bouyeri is just a maladjusted lunatic, but unfortunately he represents a familiar mindset and temperament among Muslims. A September 7th Time magazine interview quotes Yahya Cholil Staquf, one of Indonesia’s most influential Islamic leaders. What he says is so important I have reproduced a few of the Q & As here. It is especially important given Time magazine’s reach and its liberal readership:

Q: Many Western politicians and intellectuals say that Islamist terrorism has nothing to do with Islam. What is your view?

A: Western politicians should stop pretending that extremism and terrorism have nothing to do with Islam. There is a clear relationship between fundamentalism, terrorism, and the basic assumptions of Islamic orthodoxy. So long as we lack consensus regarding this matter, we cannot gain victory over fundamentalist violence within Islam.

Q: What basic assumptions within traditional Islam are problematic?

A: The relationship between Muslims and non-Muslims, the relationship of Muslims with the state, and Muslims’ relationship to the prevailing legal system wherever they live … Within the classical tradition, the relationship between Muslims and non-Muslims is assumed to be one of segregation and enmity.

Perhaps there were reasons for this during the Middle Ages, when the tenets of Islamic orthodoxy were established, but in today’s world such a doctrine is unreasonable. To the extent that Muslims adhere to this view of Islam, it renders them incapable of living harmoniously and peacefully within the multi-cultural, multi-religious societies of the 21st century. (Emphasis added)

I put that last sentence in italics because in my Red-Green Axis presentations, I stress the inability of many Muslim refugees to assimilate. In fact, their goal is not assimilation but conquest. The interview continues:

Q: A Western politician would likely be accused of racism for saying what you just said.

A: I’m not saying that Islam is the only factor causing Muslim minorities in the West to lead a segregated existence, often isolated from society as a whole. There may be other factors on the part of the host nations, such as racism, which exists everywhere in the world. But traditional Islam — which fosters an attitude of segregation and enmity toward non-Muslims — is an important factor. (Emphasis added)

Here again, Staquf reinforces my assertion that Muslims do not want to assimilate.

Leftists and establishment Republicans (but I repeat myself) claim that terrorist groups like ISIS are un-Islamic – that they have somehow “hijacked” an otherwise peaceful religion. National Security Advisor H.R. McMaster asserts this in his defense of Islam. (Note: my exposé of McMaster reveals much more about this horribly unacceptable Trump advisor). Staquf has a blunt answer to this belief (italicized portions are my emphases):

Q: So the call by radicals to establish a caliphate, including by ISIS, is not un-Islamic?

A: No, it is not. [ISIS’s] goal of establishing a global caliphate stands squarely within the orthodox Islamic tradition. But we live in a world of nation-states. Any attempt to create a unified Islamic state in the 21st century can only lead to chaos and violence … Many Muslims assume there is an established and immutable set of Islamic laws, which are often described as shariah. This assumption is in line with Islamic tradition, but it of course leads to serious conflict with the legal system that exists in secular nation-states.

Any [fundamentalist] view of Islam positing the traditional norms of Islamic jurisprudence as absolute [should] be rejected out of hand as false. State laws [should] have precedence.

I cannot reproduce more of this interview here. Suffice it to say there are many more gems and I urge you to read the whole thing. I can only imagine the Time reporter’s pique at these repeated assaults on his idiotic, politically correct, left-wing presumptions. So as you might imagine, he had to get at least one swipe in against conservatives. He did so with his last question. But he got bitch-slapped on that one too:

Q: I would guess that you and I agree that there is a far right wing in Western societies that would reject even a moderate, contextualized Islam.

A: And there’s an extreme left wing whose adherents reflexively denounce any and all talk about the connections between traditional Islam, fundamentalism and violence as de facto proof of Islamophobia. This must end. A problem that is not acknowledged cannot be solved.

“This must end. A problem that is not acknowledged cannot be solved.” So here we have a very influential Muslim confirming everything we “Islamophobes” say about CAIR, the Muslim Brotherhood, and the whole Red-Green Axis infrastructure. Amen brother! We are sick of being called Islamophobes for telling the truth by spineless cowards afraid of their own shadows.

In her documentary, Can’t We Talk About This? Pam Geller communicates this message in her inimitably convincing manner. This is a must-see film, available for viewing on Vimeo now.

This message needs to get out.

Editor’s note: The idea that Islam can be viewed through the political lens of left versus right is a highly dubious proposition. See this article I wrote in 2013. -MV

DACA: Why Are People Upset That Trump Defended the Constitution?

/0 Comments/in , /by

So, it turns out all those DACA protests were silly.

When Attorney General Jeff Sessions announced Tuesday, on behalf of the Trump administration, that President Obama’s illegal Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals executive order would be rescinded, the Left created an uproar. Thousands took to the streets. Students walked out of their high schools. A march on the Brooklyn Bridge disrupted traffic. Activists stormed Trump Tower in New York City, and dozens were arrested.

The Democrats pounced on the outrage, stoking fear of impending mass deportations. Senator Bob Menendez, D-N.J., charged the president with racist motivations, saying “he has once again chosen to cloak his presidency with a white nationalist flag.” These were obvious lies.

Sessions’ announcement of the policy reversal made clear there would be a six-month delay in enforcement of the old, pre-DACA rules. President Trump urged Congress to get to work on quickly legalizing DACA and, with encouragement from Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., made clear on Thursday that the government would take “no action” to deport DACA recipients while Congress considers a new DREAM Act to grant amnesty to nearly a million illegal immigrants receiving benefits under DACA. The president pledged to sign that bill when Congress sends it to his desk.

So, no mass deportations. No real DACA repeal, either. The president is committed to a legislative legalization of what was an illegal executive order. Regardless of how you feel about the policy of amnesty for illegal immigrants, the president at least is fulfilling his oath of office to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.

DACA was unconstitutional. President Obama said so himself before reversing his position during an election year. “I am president, I am not king,” Obama said in 2010. Later in 2011, he reiterated “with respect to the notion that I can just suspend deportations through executive order, that’s just not the case.” Granting amnesty to illegal immigrants brought here as children always required an act of Congress, and now President Trump has provided Congress with the opportunity to do it.

That’s why the protests and attacks on DACA repeal were so absurd. They were attacks on the constitutional separation of powers by a group of people who want illegal immigrants to become citizens of the United States. Think of it.

If we’re going to toss out parts of the Constitution on a whim because it feels right, or because it would be “cruel” to wait around for Congress to exercise its responsibility to legislate, why stop at the separation of powers? Why respect some parts of the Constitution, i.e. the Bill of Rights, while we ignore other parts? Why should any law be respected when the supreme law of the land is ignored and held in contempt?

Why should you want to be a citizen of the United States when you demand that this country’s foundational laws be ignored?

It makes no sense, unless you don’t actually want to live in the USA — unless you want to fundamentally transform this country into something else. (For more from the author of “DACA: Why Are People Upset That Trump Defended the Constitution?” please click HERE)

Church Elder Stabbed by Knifeman Who Stormed Into Church and Attacked Three Worshippers

/0 Comments/in , /by

A man has been charged with attempted murder after three worshippers were hurt in church by the suspect who wielded a ‘kitchen knife’ in front of a horrified 150-strong Sunday service congregation.

One victim, 33, suffered a neck wound before two other members of the congregation at the New Jerusalem Apostolic Church in Aston, Birmingham, hurt their hands while restraining the attacker.

John Delahaye, 47, of Aston, has also been charged with two counts of wounding and possession of a bladed weapon, and will appear at Birmingham Magistrates’ Court on Monday.

The church has named the victims as Karl George, Adam Brooks and Jorge George.

Minister Kevin Hutchinson said about 150 people were taking part in the New Jerusalem Apostolic Church’s Sunday service shortly before 11am when ‘a man with a knife stormed into our sanctuary’.

I’m a Black American, and I Say Antifa Must Not Be Tolerated

/0 Comments/in , /by

Moving to a tiny town in the hills of West Virginia took me out of the loop for about a month; no TV or internet with horrible cell phone service and too much static on the radio to listen to Rush. Upon finally getting back online I learned that the airways have been dominated by a bunch of scumbag haters calling themselves Antifa.

I’m a black original member of the Tea Party movement, singer/songwriter of the “American Tea Party Anthem.” Outrageously, fake news media grants respect to Antifa which is boldly and arrogantly inciting hate and engaging in violence which fake news media falsely accused the Tea Party of doing. Fake news media’s insidious deception is the epitome of evil.

Antifa terrorists throw Molotov cocktails, urinate on police cars, burn our flag, destroy public property and physically assault anyone who disagrees with them. In my history of speaking and performing at over 500 Tea Party rallies, rally sites were left cleaner than we found them. Grandmothers typically brought cookies to share with our team. And yet, fake news media insultingly gives Antifa moral high ground over the Tea Party.

I probably sound like a broken record repeating myself. Time after time, fake news media has shown us that they have no intention of being honest, fair or balanced. Their sole purpose is to further their leftists’ homey’s anti-American and anti-Christian socialist/progressive agenda. Being blatantly hypocritical does not deter fake news media in the least. They will do or say whatever necessary to defeat us everyday Americans; remove Trump from office to block the implementation of his make America great again agenda. Given this truth, why on earth would anyone on our side attempt to work with or please fake news media? It is insane.

It is not surprising that despicable fake news media is secretly cheering on Antifa’s violence. Meanwhile, media slime-balls are aggressively selling their lie that white supremacists represent mainstream conservatives (cookie-baking Tea Party grandmothers at rallies with their grandkids who wave American flags while singing “God Bless America”).
