Surrounded by Young Female Athletes, Donald Trump Bans Men From Women’s Sports

President Donald Trump signed an executive order Wednesday banning men from women’s sports, a historic moment in the fight to protect the integrity of women’s spaces from gender activists and ideologues.

“From now on,” he said to massive applause from those assembled, “women’s sports will be for only women.”

“With this executive order, the war on women’s sports is over,” he added.

The president signed the order in the East Room of the White House, surrounded by young schoolgirls, female athletes, and advocates, including Independent Women’s Forum ambassadors Riley Gaines, Paula Scanlon, and Peyton Edwards; journalist Sage Steele; Concerned Women for America’s Penny Nance, and others.

“If we have to worry about them, we have a bigger problem,” he joked to his Secret Service agents as the crowd of middle-school-aged girls rushed to his side for the signing. “What a nice picture this is!” (Read more from “Surrounded by Young Female Athletes, Donald Trump Bans Men From Women’s Sports” HERE)

Mitch McConnell, 83, Falls Down Stairs in Capitol Building

Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) fell down the stairs outside the Senate chamber Wednesday, where reporters watched the octogenarian regain his footing.

McConnell got up with the help of Sens. Steve Daines (R-MT) and Markwayne Mullin (R-OK) and tried to walk it off.

McConnell also fell in December, continuing a pattern that raised alarms in 2023, leaving him with a hurt wrist, bruised hand, and bandages on his finger and face.

McConnell was treated for a concussion last year. That injury occurred upon falling at a hotel in Washington, DC. It was one of his many health issues in 2023, CNN reported. (Read more from “Mitch McConnell, 83, Falls Down Stairs in Capitol Building” HERE)

Trump Freezes Millions in USAID Funds for Foreign Media, Triggering Globalist Outrage

American taxpayers are no longer subsidizing foreign media once funded by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), prompting leftwing concern over the potential impact on global journalism and “democracy.”

President Donald Trump put a 90 day hold on all USAID’s foreign aid this week, which subsequently cut $268 million from media outlets in more than 30 countries, according to the agency’s 2025 foreign aid budget reported by Reporters Without Borders (RWB).

USAID’s 2023 fact sheet, taken offline due to the hold, boasted the agency supported 6,200 journalists, 707 news outlets, 279 media-sector civil society organizations, the Columbia Journalism Review reported.

“We have articles scheduled until the end of January, but after that, if we haven’t found solutions, we won’t be able to publish anymore,” a journalist from a Belarusian reporter told RWB. . .

As the savings enraged foreign media, it caused great concern among Democrats, who claim USAID’s work is imperative. (Read more from “Trump Freezes Millions in USAID Funds for Foreign Media, Triggering Globalist Outrage” HERE)

ESPN Gets Dragged For Temper Tantrum After Trump Bans Men From Ruining Women’s Sports

The woke-scolds running ESPN threw a temper tantrum on Wednesday over President Trump’s efforts to keep men out of women’s sports — and boy, oh boy, did it not end well for them.

While “reporting” on the president’s executive order designed to restore fairness in sports by preventing trans-identifying males from competing against female athletes, the Disney-owned sports media company went out of its way to regurgitate tenants of leftists’ asinine and dangerous gender ideology. In a tweet linking to an article detailing Trump’s order, ESPN described males as “people who were biologically assigned male at birth.”

“President Donald Trump will sign an executive order Wednesday designed to prevent people who were biologically assigned male at birth from participating in women’s or girls’ sporting events,” the tweet reads.

The linked article also used the phrase “assigned male at birth” to describe human males.

In its piece, ESPN hyperbolically claimed that Trump’s new directive “marks another aggressive shift by the Republican president’s second administration in the way the federal government deals with transgender people and their rights.” The outlet also gave credence to the false premise that individuals can change their sex by referring to track athlete Sadie Schreiner — a woman-pretending man — as a “transgender woman.” (Read more from “ESPN Gets Dragged For Temper Tantrum After Trump Bans Men From Ruining Women’s Sports” HERE)

In 2024, Texas’ Pro-Life Laws Saved Countless Women And Unborn Babies

Pro-life laws in Texas are responsible for saving the lives of countless women and unborn babies in 2024, but the state’s work to protect both mothers and their children from the abortion industry is not over yet.

According to the updated Induced Terminations of Pregnancy (ITOP) report released by the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) this week, physicians and hospitals in the Lone Star State performed zero elective abortions last year.

Ever since the Texas Heartbeat Act went into effect in September 2021, which effectively banned ending the lives of unborn babies beyond six weeks gestation, thousands of pregnant women and their children have escaped the life-threatening harms that are caused by abortion.

When the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in June 2022 and the state’s prohibition on ending life in the womb unless a woman’s life or one of her major bodily functions was in danger went into effect, abortions in Texas tumbled even further. The red state went from recording thousands of elective abortions each month to receiving zero reports of elective abortions each year starting in 2023 and extending into 2024.

“These numbers make it absolutely clear that Texas’ pro-life laws are protecting women and unborn babies in our state,” Communications Director for Texas Alliance for Life Amy O’Donnell said in a statement. “No doctor has been prosecuted, sued, or sanctioned for providing an abortion to save a woman’s life. No woman has lost her life for lack of an exception in the law. Misinformation suggesting otherwise spreads unnecessary fear among pregnant women and misleads the public about what our laws actually say.” (Read more from “In 2024, Texas’ Pro-Life Laws Saved Countless Women And Unborn Babies” HERE)

Army Recruiting Shatters Records After President Trump’s Election Victory

The U.S. Army recently announced it shattered previous recruiting records, with December 2024 being the most productive December in 15 years.

The branch reported it enlisted nearly 350 soldiers every day that month, Army officials announced Tuesday on social media.

Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth took to X to share the news.

“BOTTOM LINE: America’s youth want to serve under the bold & strong “America First” leadership of [President Donald Trump] @realDonaldTrump.” (Read more from “Army Recruiting Shatters Records After President Trump’s Election Victory” HERE)

Latest CIA Announcement Shows the Deep State Must Be Panicking

It has been quite the Tuesday: Trump met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, he declared we will take over the Gaza Strip, Pam Bondi was confirmed as attorney general, and USAID will begin a significant drawdown on Friday when all overseas missions are shut down.

Trump’s slash-and-burn campaign is real, with the DC bureaucrat swine class trembling as Elon Musk and the Department of Government Efficiency becoming the grim reaper for lazy government workers, waste, and fraud. The Treasury Department got a DOGE smacking, as did USAID. Now, the CIA is running for cover, offering buyouts to its entire workforce (via WSJ):

The Central Intelligence Agency offered buyouts to its entire workforce Tuesday, in what officials said is a bid to bring the agency in line with President Trump’s priorities, including targeting drug cartels.

The CIA appeared to be the first intelligence agency to tell its employees that they can quit their jobs and receive about eight months of pay and benefits as part of Trump’s push to downsize the federal government. The offer last month made to most civilian federal agencies exempted some categories of federal workers, including those with national security roles.

U.S. Postal Service Suspends Incoming Packages From China, Hong Kong

The US Postal Service will temporarily suspend accepting inbound parcels from China and Hong Kong Posts until further notice, the USPS website showed.

The change, effective from Feb. 4, will not impact the flow of letters and “flats” from China and Hong Kong, according to the website.

USPS did not immediately comment on whether this was tied to US President Donald Trump’s change to ending ‘de minimis’ shipments from China and other countries. (Read more from “U.S. Postal Service Suspends Incoming Packages From China, Hong Kong” HERE)

Anti-Elon Rally Filled With Angry Lesbians, Deranged Libs, and Overall Strangeness

What the hell did I watch? If anything, the anti-Elon Musk rally last night proved two things: Trump derangement syndrome has been replaced by Elon Musk derangement syndrome. Second, the Democratic Party has no idea how to win elections. The reports of a rudderless, leaderless, and divided organization were confirmed last night. It also showed that they have no message other than ‘me no like this Trump administration,’ of which Elon Musk is a top agent of the president. His Department of Government Efficiency is wiping the table clean, exposing waste and fraud, and getting these lazy DC government workers to quit.

They already delivered a smackdown to legacy officials at the Treasury Department before Scott Bessent was confirmed as its next secretary. USAID has been virtually gutted, becoming absorbed into the State Department, where all overseas missions were ordered closed by Friday. The entire staff is slated to be furloughed this week. The CIA is also running scared, offering its entire workforce buyout options. The DOGE crew has accessed the Small Business Administration’s accounts, and Democrats cannot understand nor tolerate that the government doesn’t have to waste our tax dollars.

This rally was an aberrant event marked by whiny, deranged liberals, angry lesbians, and overall strangeness. Also, Chuck Schumer, stop trying to lead chants. It was painful to watch, but we also saw evidence of an armed rebellion. At least, that’s what I was told a few years ago regarding the new rules around this nonsense. What a circus (via The Guardian):

Hundreds of protesters and a contingent of Democratic lawmakers rallied outside the Department of the Treasury in Washington on Tuesday, denouncing what they called Elon Musk’s “hostile takeover” of federal financial systems, as demonstrations spilled on to, and took over, the street outside the building.

The protests targeted reports of the “department of government efficiency” (Doge) team’s reported access to sensitive government financial data, including information related to social security payments, Medicare reimbursements, and tax refunds – systems that process trillions of dollars in annual transactions.
