3.2 Million U.S. Children Attend Public Schools That Conceal Students’ Gender Identities From Parents

/0 Comments/in , /by

According to an investigation conducted by the conservative group Parents Defending Education, more than 3.2 million American children attend public schools that have policies in place to conceal students’ gender identities from parents.

Last summer, the Biden administration proposed new Title IX rules that would allow all U.S. public school employees to withhold children’s gender status from parents. Those regulations could become federal policy if approved in May.

PDE compiled a list of public school districts across the United States with policies that currently “openly state” district officials can or should hide a student’s gender status from his or her parents.

The controversial district policies have already sparked legal battles across the nation.

The nonprofit notes that the list is not comprehensive but, so far, includes 5,904 schools from 168 districts nationwide. The list contains two of the largest school districts in the country, Chicago Public Schools and Los Angeles Unified School District.

Biden Jokes He’s ‘400’ Years Old, Calls Trump ‘Maybe Future President’

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Biden sounded pessimistic about his re-election chances Thursday, calling his predecessor and 2024 challenger Donald Trump the “maybe future president” of the United States.

Biden, 80, also referred to himself as “400” years old during a rambling speech in Philadelphia that was meant to highlight the release of his annual budget proposal — which includes key planks of his re-election campaign platform.

“As you can tell, I’ve only been around a few years — like 400,” Biden said jokingly after declaring he’d “never been more optimistic about America’s future than I am today.” . . .

“I had a big fight with the former president — and maybe future president,” Biden said, adding as the audience booed, “Bless me, Father.”

“The big fight you may remember going on was was our good friend, the former president, decided all the inspectors general … he fired them all. (Read more from “Biden Jokes He’s ‘400’ Years Old, Calls Trump ‘Maybe Future President’” HERE)

You’re Sorry? Gulf Cartel Apologizes, Turns Over 5 Members Tied to Americans’ Deadly Kidnapping

/0 Comments/in , /by

A secretive faction of Mexico’s notorious Gulf Cartel apologized and turned in five members who they say are responsible for the broad-daylight kidnapping that killed two Americans last week.

The cartel’s Scorpions group said it “decided to turn over those who were directly involved and responsible in the events” related to the March 3 abduction of four Americans in the border city of Matamoros, according to a letter leaked to the Associated Press by a Tamaulipas state law enforcement source.

The letter also claimed the five members “acted under their own decision-making and lack of discipline” when they attacked victims Latavia “Tay” McGee, Shaeed Woodard, Zindell Brown and Eric James Williams.

McGee and Williams were found injured but alive in a dingy shack on Tuesday after a four-day search. Woodard and Brown, however, had been shot dead.

The ambush, the letter states, went against the Gulf Cartel’s policy of “respecting the life and well-being of the innocent.” (Read more from “You’re Sorry? Gulf Cartel Apologizes, Turns Over 5 Members Tied to Americans’ Deadly Kidnapping” HERE)

Top U.S. High School Defends Chinese Military-Linked Funding: ‘Not Unusual’

/0 Comments/in , /by

The school system in charge of the top-ranked U.S. public high school is defending the school’s receipt of hundreds of thousands of dollars from groups linked to China’s military and its United Front, calling such foreign funding “not unusual.”

Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology, or TJHSST, part of Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, partnered with Tsinghua University High School, or TUHS, to assist it and China generally with adopting the science, technology, engineering, and mathematics, or STEM, and advanced lab research TJHSST is famous for. TUHS is closely tied to Tsinghua University, considered by the Pentagon to be a Chinese military university.

“Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology is a world-renowned academic institution known for its innovative STEM education programming,” Julie Moult, the media relations manager for FCPS, told the Washington Examiner on Thursday. “It is not unusual for elite public schools, colleges, and universities in the U.S. to benefit from donations and grants from various sources, including international sources.”

‘You Better Be F***Ing Sure’: Gay School Superintendent Caught on Hidden Camera Criticizing Transgender Ideology (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

An assistant superintendent for curriculum and instruction in Nassau County, New York, was recorded questioning whether children should be introduced to sex and gender ideology in school, hidden camera footage by Project Veritas shows.

East Meadow Schools (EMS) assistant superintendent David Casamento, an openly gay man who appeared to admit to writing curriculum steeped in diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), also added he is unsure about teaching minors about sex toys or allowing them to go through irreversible transgender procedures, according to undercover footage from Project Veritas.

“I don’t think that using sex toys is something that’s appropriate at public schools … Because that’s part of expressing their sexuality, and I don’t think that a 10-year-old is ready to express their sexuality,” he stated in the Project Veritas video.

The EMS official also appeared to worry that minors weren’t mature enough to understand the consequences associated with taking hormone blockers or undergoing gender surgeries that often leave patients sterile, with chronic pain, or with deformities, the video showed. Casamento seemed confused about the consequences if they changed their minds, according to the video. “It’s irreversible,” he said of the transgender procedures. “Or if it is? I don’t know.”

“The surgeries. I want to be so supportive, but at the same time, I want people to make good decisions,” Casamento added in the video. “Yeah, I mean, I’m not concerned. I just think that you better be fucking sure, and I don’t think … I know middle school and high school kids, they’re not sure what they are going to wear the next morning,” he continued.

‘Twitter Files’ Hearing Erupts as Journalist Refuses to Reveal Sources in Heated Exchange With Democrat

/0 Comments/in , /by

Rep. Sylvia Garcia, D-Texas, was accused of badgering journalist Matt Taibbi into revealing a source on Thursday during a heated House Judiciary Committee hearing on the “Twitter Files,” but the reporter wouldn’t budge.

Sourcing was a sensitive subject as it had already come up during the hearing when Taibbi was asked directly about it regarding his reporting on internal Twitter communications and accusations of government censorship. Garcia asked Taibbi when Twitter owner Elon Musk first approached him to partake in the “Twitter Files” project, which has allowed once-secret internal discussions to be exposed, revealing an array of issues.

Taibbi began to say he couldn’t reveal that information when Garcia insisted she simply needed a date.

“I can’t give it to you, unfortunately, because this is a question of sourcing, and I’m a journalist. I don’t reveal my sources,” Taibbi said.

Man Shot Several Times by Police During Traffic Stop After Officers Allegedly See Gun (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

A recent college graduate in Utah was shot several times by police during a traffic stop in early March after officers allegedly saw him reaching for a gun, body camera video shows.

Farmington, Utah, police department officers stopped 25-year-old Chase Allan after seeing an illegitimate license plate on the BMW car he was driving at 3:22 p.m. on March 1. Police Chief Eric Johnsen released body camera video relating to the incident on Wednesday.

When the police officer told Allan that he was being stopped because there was no registration on the car, Allan said, “I don’t need registration and I don’t answer questions.” The officer requested backup, and four other officers arrived at the scene. . .

The officer then asked Allan to step out of the car, and he replied “No, I am not required to.” . . .

One of the officers reached to pull Allan out of the car, and a separate officer yelled “gun, gun, gun!” Multiple officers can be seen in the body camera video then firing multiple shots at Allan. Police say that there was a holster under Allan’s jacket, and said that the “holster has flex movement” just before police began shooting.

Study: Here’s How You Can Reduce Alzheimer’s Risk

/0 Comments/in , , /by

A new study has shown that people can significantly reduce their risk of Alzheimer’s and dementia by making healthier choices in the kitchen.

By following either Mediterranean or brain-focused Mediterranean-DASH Diet Intervention for Neurodegenerative Delay (MIND) diets, people showed fewer physical signs of Alzheimer’s, CNN reported Wednesday. Further, the study showed that those who followed either diet had lowered their odds by almost 40% of accumulating enough plaques and tangles in brain tissue to be diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, the outlet reported.

The MIND diet has already been touted for years as the anti-memory loss diet. In a study conducted in 2015, MIND diet researchers monitored a group of older adults for up to 10 years from the Rush Memory and Aging Project (MAP) with annual dietary questionnaires.

“Researchers found a 53% lower rate of Alzheimer’s disease for those with the highest MIND scores. Even those participants who had moderate MIND scores showed a 35% lower rate compared with those with the lowest MIND scores,” the study showed.

This new research, however, shows that even small changes, can potentially have big effects. (Read more from “Study: Here’s How You Can Reduce Alzheimer’s Risk” HERE)

/0 Comments/in , /by

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) was rushed to the hospital on Wednesday evening after falling during a dinner.

“This evening, Leader McConnell tripped at a local hotel during a private dinner,” a spokesperson for McConnell said. “He has been admitted to the hospital where he is receiving treatment.”

No other information was provided. The 81-year-old senator is a polio survivor and has, at times, had issues with balance and sometimes needs to use rails to assist him in walking.

In 2019, McConnell suffered a fractured shoulder after he tripped and fell at his home in Kentucky.

McConnell’s hospitalization comes as Sens. John Fetterman (D-PA) and Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) have both been hospitalized in recent weeks. (Read more from “Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell Hospitalized” HERE)

Jim Jordan Goes Scorched Earth on Dr. Fauci in Explosive Hearing; Here’s What the Former CDC Director Says Is Likely the Cause of ‘Greatest Pandemic the World Has Seen’ (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By Trending Politics News. . .Rep. Jim Jordan went off today slamming Fauci and his attempt to cover up the “lab-leak theory.”

“Why did Dr. Fauci work so hard for just one of those theories? Why was it so important to push one over the other?” Jordan questioned. . .

On Wednesday, Jordan yelled, “Two of the signatures of the original email to Dr. Fauci, that’s Dr. Anderson and Dr. Gary, were awarded a $9 million grant for their research. So there’s 9 million reasons why they changed their position and the only intervening events a conference call with Dr. Fauci and Dr. Collins, again a call that Mr. Redfield was not allowed to be on, the head of CDC and on the Coronavirus Task Force, and then three months later, shazam, they get nine million bucks from Dr. Fauci. Well isn’t that something?” . . .

Jordan continued, “What was Dr. Fauci doing? He was trying to cover his backside and everybody knows it. And that’s the part that ticks us off because this is the highest paid guy in our government, getting all kinds of money to tell us things that were not accurate. Because we now know, U.S. tax dollars went to a lab in China, a lab that was not up to code, a lab that was doing gain of function research, and that’s where this thing most definitely came from.”

Here’s What the Former CDC Director Says Is Likely the Cause of ‘Greatest Pandemic the World Has Seen’ (VIDEO)

By Townhall. Testifying on Capitol Hill Wednesday morning, former Centers for Disease Control Director Robert Redfield was asked about the benefits of dangerous gain-of-function research — the frankensteining of viruses to make them more lethal or infectious to humans.

When asked if he could point to a single pandemic gain-of-function research had prevented, Redfield couldn’t give an example and instead pinned the latest pandemic on the practice.

Back in early 2020 in the first stages of the pandemic, Redfield publicly stated he believed the virus escaped from a lab. Despite his assertion being correct and now backed by the FBI and Department of Energy, he received death threats. He was also cut out of meetings with then National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Director Anthony Fauci and former Director of the National Human Genome Research Institute Francis Collins.
