Mainstream Media Gives ‘Woman of the Year’ Honor to Transgender Democrat

USA Today honored a biological male Democratic lawmaker who identifies as a transgender woman on its annual “Women of the Year” list.

Democratic state Rep. Leigh Finke is the first “openly transgender” person to be elected and serve in Minnesota’s state legislature. Late last week, Finke was selected as the state’s nominee for the “Women of the Year” list. The list began in 2022 as a continuation of “Women of the Century,” which celebrated 100 years of women having the right to vote.

“It’s a dramatic understatement to say that I am beyond honored to see my name among this list of honorees,” Finke wrote on Twitter. . .

Last year, Townhall covered how USA Today honored Dr. Rachel Levine , the U.S. assistant secretary for health, on the same list. Levine, a four-star admiral, was born a biological male, Richard Levine, and transitioned to live as a female. Previously, Levine was secretary of the Pennsylvania Department of Health.

Fauci Filmed Laughing off Lab-Leak Theory, Wishing He’d Pushed Mask Mandates Sooner

Dr. Anthony Fauci was shown laughing off the widely accepted lab-leak theory as “molecularly impossible” in a new documentary — while also saying he would’ve implemented quarantines and mask mandates sooner.

The then-White House adviser was followed by PBS throughout 2021 and 2022 as he became a polarizing figure while leading President Biden’s response to the pandemic.

In it, he railed against Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) “insidiously” suggesting in Congress in July 2021 that his National Institutes of Health had funded gain-of-function research at the lab in Wuhan where COVID first emerged.

Fauci confirmed that the “number of experiments that needed to be done on viruses” include “doing something under certain circumstances that make a pathogen more transmissible or more pathogenic.”

“Which some people refer to as ‘gain of function,’” he said with a look of disgust at the term he has always denied. (Read more from “Fauci Filmed Laughing off Lab-Leak Theory, Wishing He’d Pushed Mask Mandates Sooner” HERE)

Supreme Court Overturns Another Abortion Ruling

On Monday, the Supreme Court vacated a federal appeals court ruling that upheld a minor’s right to seek court permission for an abortion without parental notification.

The Supreme Court’s decision was issued because it believed the previous decision was moot following the Dobbs ruling in June of last year. The Dobbs ruling overturned Roe v. Wade and ended the federal constitutional right to abortion.

The case before the justices concerned a 17-year-old in Missouri who asked a court for permission to terminate a pregnancy without notifying her parents, as required by state law. The lower court clerk told the girl that her parents would be notified despite her wishes. After traveling to Illinois for the procedure, she sued, arguing that the court trampled her constitutional rights. . .

The Supreme Court’s ruling directs the appeals court to vacate the judgment in the Missouri case and declare it moot. The ruling will have no practical effect in Missouri, which currently has one of the strictest abortion bans in the country, with no exemptions for rape or incest. The procedure is only permissible to save the pregnant person’s life or prevent severe damage to their health.

Twitter Erupts in Response to Video of Racist Berating a White Family on the Subway (VIDEO)

A video of a young man viciously berating a little boy and his white parents on a subway train in New York City is fast going viral on Twitter, prompting some to conclude that this kind of racial animosity was the objective of leftists and critical race theory advocates all along.

The video depicts a couple seated with their son in a subway car opposite an individual apparently keen to provoke a fight.

The racist standing opposite the family — a black male who has previously turned up in viral videos issuing similar dehumanizing screeds — focuses his stream of identitarian vitriol on the young boy, calling him a “nasty a**, mutated … white monkey,” before shouting, “You’re a dog in this country!”

The racist continues unabated, screaming, “You’re nothing over here. You’re a dog. Shut up! I’m a black American! I’m over you!”

During his rant, the racist managed to cover some of the themes that Nikole Hannah-Jones of “The 1619 Project” took up in her anti-white letter to her college paper.

Insanity: Maren Morris Tells Tennessee to ‘F—— Arrest’ Her After Introducing Her Toddler to Drag Queens

Maren Morris, a Texas-born country star, told the state of Tennessee to arrest her during a speech at a pro-LGBTQ concert just weeks after the state announced a ban on drag shows near schools.

“And yes, I introduced my son to some drag queens today, so Tennessee, f—— arrest me,” Morris said Tuesday in the headline-making clip, winning her praise from The Washington Post, Variety, and a host of other liberal media outlets.

Morris said her son, at just two-years-old, was excited to meet drag queens.

“I brought my son here earlier today for soundcheck, and he’s turning three this week, and we got to go in the room where all the queens were getting ready and doing their makeup. And he freaked out when he went in there because it’s just magic what drag queens do,” Morris explained, according to Variety. . .

Morris’ speech comes just weeks after Tennessee became the first state to pass legislation banning drag shows on public property and near schools. The state previously had restrictions in place against “adult-oriented businesses.” (Read more from “Insanity: Maren Morris Tells Tennessee to ‘F—— Arrest’ Her After Introducing Her Toddler to Drag Queens” HERE)

Pentagon Doctors Claim 7-Year-Olds Can Make Decisions to Be Injected With Hormones, Puberty Suppressants

Health providers at U.S. military bases, some of whom are involved in treating military-connected minors, blasted the idea of waiting before injecting kids diagnosed with gender dysphoria with puberty blockers and hormones.

The DoD providers said in the March edition of the American Journal of Public Health that the only pathway for children of military members who present with gender dysphoria symptoms is to immediately move towards “gender-affirming health care, such as puberty suppression and affirming hormones.”

The doctors said that on the basis of “human rights,” “youths… have an inherent ability and right to consent to gender-affirming therapy.”

They went so far as to claim 7-year-olds can make their own medical decisions.

The authors – David A. Klein, Thomas Baxter, Noelle S. Larson as well as clinical psychologist, Natasha A. Schvey, PhD – demanded the military train all of its providers on their ideas on gender medical interventions for minors, despite acknowledging that 53% of military-affiliated physicians in the Department of Defense health system indicated they would refuse to prescribe hormones regardless of any training.

Wrestling With Jesus: NCAA Shoots Down Champion’s Faith Declaration (VIDEO)

The NCAA reportedly has shot down an interview with a three-time champion wrestler, apparently over his blunt, no-nonsense statement of his Christian faith.

“You can only get the [Holy Spirit] through Him,” explained Penn State wrestler Aaron Brooks, referencing Jesus, in the interview after he won a Big Ten title, for an amazing third time.

“Christ’s resurrection is everything! Not just His life, but His death and resurrection.”

“No false prophets, no Muhammad, no anyone else.” . . .

But a report at the Right Scoop explained there was so much criticism that “the NCAA took down the video from Twitter…” (Read more from “Wrestling With Jesus: NCAA Shoots Down Champion’s Faith Declaration (VIDEO)” HERE)

The second- and third-place finishers in the photo with Thomas were all smiles in defeat:

Ex-CDC Chief Warns of Coming ‘Great Pandemic,’ Worse Than COVID

The former chief of America’s Centers for Disease Control says the next pandemic to hit the world will be the “great pandemic,” and it will be “brutal.” And it will come from gain-of-function research. . .

“I do believe the next pandemic, and we’re going to have another pandemic and I think it’s going to be the great pandemic, I consider COVID a minor pandemic, the great pandemic’s going to come,” he said.

“And normally, it would come from spillover…bird flu that learns how to transmit to humans and then go to human-to-human. But I think the species barriers are very real. But it’s much more probable that it will happen because of gain-of-function research in a laboratory and then escape and then we’re going to have a pandemic…which will be much more brutal to the world than COVID was.”

The COVID-19 pandemic actually is blamed for the deaths of some seven million around the globe, more than one million inside the United States, and uncounted trillions of dollars in damage to America’s and other economies.

Experts now consider it likely that it came from a Wuhan, China, lab that was working on gain-of-function research projects with funding from the United States, including grants that went through the federal offices of Anthony Fauci, Joe Biden’s chief COVID adviser.

Ron Takes on Don: DeSantis Rips Trump’s Character, Chaotic Leadership Style

By New York Post. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has finally taken the gloves off and launched a blistering attack on his former mentor President Donald Trump. . .

On Monday, Trump went nuts after DeSantis took a shot at him over his anticipated indictment over alleged payoffs to ex-lover Stormy Daniels, saying, “I don’t know what goes into paying hush money to a porn star to secure silence over some type of alleged affair.”

The inferred morally censorious tone sparked a furious response from Trump, who raged on his own Truth Social platform: “Ron DeSanctimonious will probably find out about FALSE ACCUSATIONS & FAKE STORIES sometime in the future, as he gets older, wiser and better known when he’s unfairly and illegally attacked by a woman, even classmates that are ‘underage’ (or possibly a man!). I’m sure he will want to fight these misfits just like I do!” . . .

When I asked DeSantis to cite specific differences between him and Trump, he said: “Well I think there’s a few things. The approach to COVID was different. I would have fired somebody like Fauci. I think he got way too big for his britches, and I think he did a lot of damage.”

DeSantis also slammed Trump’s chaotic, self-obsessed, and divisive management style, saying: “I also think just in terms of my approach to leadership, I get personnel in the Government who have the agenda of the people and share our agenda. You bring your own agenda in you’re gone. We’re just not gonna have that. So, the way we run the Government I think is no daily drama, focus on the big picture and put points on the board and I think that’s something that’s very important.” (Read more from “Ron Takes on Don: DeSantis Rips Trump’s Character, Chaotic Leadership Style” HERE)

DeSantis Hits Republican Poll Low as Trump Tightens Grip on Primary

By The Guardian. Donald Trump may be in legal trouble over his alleged weakness for vice, but his predicament is increasingly placing Ron DeSantis – his chief rival for the Republican presidential nomination – in a political vise. . .

DeSantis has floated criticism of Trump over the hush money payment but on Tuesday a new poll showed how Trump, who is also fundraising off his legal peril, has tightened his grip on the primary race.

The Morning Consult survey shows the former president has 54% support among likely primary voters and DeSantis has 26%, tying his lowest score since the poll began in December.

The two men are still way ahead of the rest of the field. Trump’s former vice-president, Mike Pence, was third in the Morning Consult poll, with 7%, three points ahead of Nikki Haley, the former South Carolina governor.

Liz Cheney, the former Wyoming representative who lost her seat after turning against Trump over the January 6 attack on Congress, and who has not ruled out a run, had 3% support. No one else, including likely candidates Mike Pompeo and Tim Scott, got more than a point. (Read more from “Desantis Hits Republican Poll Low as Trump Tightens Grip on Primary” HERE)
