Space Cadet: Dem Rep. Tells Schoolkids That Moon Is a ‘Planet’ and ‘Made up Mostly of Gases’

/1 Comment/in , /by

Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-Texas) stunned attendees at a high school solar eclipse event Monday by claiming the rock-solid moon is a “planet” that is “made up mostly of gases” — before adding she still wants to be “first in line” to learn how to live there.

The former top Democrat on the House Science Committee’s space subcommittee badly botched elementary lunar facts while speaking during the gathering at Booker T. Washington High School in Houston.

“You’ve heard the word ‘full moon.’ Sometimes you need to take the opportunity just to come out and see a full moon is that complete rounded circle, which is made up mostly of gases,” Jackson Lee, 74, told teenage pupils who gathered on a sports field ahead of the rare celestial event.

“And that’s why the question is why or how could we as humans live on the moon? Are the gases such that we could do that?” the congresswoman said.

“The sun is a mighty powerful heat, but it’s almost impossible to go near the sun. The moon is more manageable.” (Read more from “Space Cadet: Dem Rep. Tells Schoolkids That Moon Is a ‘Planet’ and ‘Made up Mostly of Gases’” HERE)

Arizona Upholds 1864 Law Restricting Nearly All Abortions

/0 Comments/in , /by

In a landmark decision, the Arizona Supreme Court has ruled to uphold a longstanding law dating back to 1864, which severely limits abortions in the state, permitting them only in cases where the life of the mother is at risk. The ruling came as the culmination of the case Planned Parenthood of Arizona v. Mayes/Hazerigg, following arguments presented before the court in December.

The 1864 law not only prohibits nearly all abortions but also imposes harsh penalties, including prison sentences of two to five years for abortion providers. The court was tasked with determining whether the more recent 15-week abortion limit, enacted in March 2022, supersedes the older statute. While the justices refrained from ruling on the constitutionality of the 1864 law, they delivered a 4-2 decision, with one recusal, affirming its enforceability over the 15-week limit.

In the majority opinion authored by Justice John Lopez, the court clarified that its decision was rooted in statutory interpretation rather than moral or public policy considerations regarding abortion. The ruling emphasized that in the absence of any federal or state law explicitly prohibiting the operation of the 1864 law, it remains enforceable.

However, the court also exercised caution, staying the total enforcement of the law for 14 days to allow parties involved to determine their course of action. Furthermore, the case was remanded to trial court for potential consideration of remaining constitutional challenges.

The ruling comes at a time when pro-abortion activists in Arizona are pushing for a constitutional amendment to establish a right to abortion. The coalition Arizona for Abortion Access recently announced surpassing the required signatures for the proposed amendment to qualify for the November ballot, reflecting ongoing efforts in multiple states to secure abortion rights.

Israel Prepares to Eliminate Iran’s Nuclear Facilities if Iran Launches Retaliatory Attack on Israel

/1 Comment/in , /by

Israel has reportedly indicated that if Iran launches a strike in retaliation for Israel killing a top Iranian general last week, Israel will respond by destroying Iran’s nuclear sites.

The Times of Israel highlighted a report from a London-based Arab news organization this week that cited a “Western security official” who said that Israel has been conducting air force drills in recent days “that include preparing to target Iranian nuclear facilities and other key infrastructure.”

Israel eliminated Mohammed Reza Zahedi, the top commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps’s Quds Force in Lebanon and Syria, from the battlefield last week as he met with other Iranian commanders and leaders from the Palestinian Islamic Jihad terrorist group.

The Coalition Council of Islamic Revolution Forces, a staunchly pro-IRGC political group, responded to the strike by praising Zahedi’s “strategic role in forming and strengthening the resistance front as well as in planning and executing” Hamas’ October 7 terrorist attack against Israel.

Tranny Sues Women-Only App Giggle for Denying Membership

/0 Comments/in , /by

In a legal battle unfolding in Australia, Roxanne Tickle a transgender ‘woman’, has initiated a lawsuit against the women-only social media app Giggle for Girls, alleging discrimination after being denied membership.

The app, created by Sall Grover with the intention of providing a female-only “safe space,” employs an AI-based gender verification process to prevent men from joining. Roxanne Tickle, identifying as a woman, attempted to apply for membership in 2021, but his access was revoked. Tickle’s lawyer, Georgina Costello, argued in the Federal Court in Sydney that Grover unlawfully discriminated against Tickle’s gender identity, asserting that Tickle perceives and presents himself as a woman.

Representing Giggle in the lawsuit, Bridie Nolan highlighted the app’s purpose as a refuge for women, aiming to combat “male online digital violence” such as harassment and stalking. Nolan contended that the app’s policies did not breach sex discrimination laws, as they are designed to foster equality between men and women in online spaces.

Tickle, who received a female designation on his birth certificate from the Australian government in 2019 following transition surgery, asserts that gender is not solely a biological construct but also influenced by social and psychological factors. Costello emphasized that while Tickle was assigned male at birth, he has transitioned to living as a woman.

The case has attracted attention from the Australian Human Rights Commission, with Sex Discrimination Commissioner Anna Cody providing submissions regarding the interpretation of relevant provisions of the Sex Discrimination Act. However, the commission clarified that it is not a party to the proceeding and has not opined on whether Tickle was subjected to discrimination.

Woman Sentenced to Prison for Selling Ashley Biden’s Diary

/0 Comments/in , /by

A federal judge in New York has handed down a sentence to Aimee Harris, a Florida woman who admitted to participating in a scheme to sell the stolen diary of Ashley Biden, daughter of President Joe Biden.

Judge Laura Taylor Swain, presiding over the case, characterized Harris’s actions as “despicable and consequently very serious,” as reported by The New York Times. Harris, a 41-year-old mother of two, was sentenced to one month in prison, three years of probation, and three months of home confinement. Additionally, she was ordered to repay the $20,000 she earned from the sale of the diary.

The Department of Justice revealed that Harris collaborated with Robert Kurlander to sell the stolen diary to an organization, identified as Project Veritas, for $40,000. The diary and other belongings belonging to Ashley Biden were reportedly discovered in a private residence in Florida in the weeks leading up to the 2020 election.

Despite attempting to sell the materials to former President Donald Trump’s campaign initially, they were rejected and encouraged to hand them over to the FBI. Harris and Kurlander pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit interstate transportation of stolen property in December 2022, expressing remorse for their actions.

However, delays ensued in the legal proceedings, with Harris citing various issues, prompting prosecutors to seek a harsher sentence. U.S. Attorney Damian Williams criticized Harris for “abusing the administration of justice” throughout the court proceedings.

Although Project Veritas did not publish the contents of Ashley Biden’s diary, the group is currently under federal investigation. Alleged pages from the diary were published by National File, claiming to be sourced from a Project Veritas whistleblower.

Kurlander, aged 60, who also participated in the scheme, has not yet been sentenced. However, he has cooperated with the federal investigation, leading prosecutors to request a six-month delay in his sentencing.

In response to the ordeal, Ashley Biden described the incident as “one of the most heinous forms of bullying” in a statement provided to the court.

Schumer: Mayorkas Impeachment Will Be Resolved ‘Quickly as Possible’ (VIDEO)

/3 Comments/in , /by

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) says the articles of impeachment against Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas are “absurd” and that he will “resolve this as quickly as possible.”

As reports circulate that Schumer is readying a motion to dismiss articles of impeachment against Mayorkas, the majority leader suggested to the media on Tuesday that he is looking to “resolve” the matter quickly.

“We’re going to try and resolve this issue as quickly as possible,” Schumer said. “Impeachment should never be used to settle policy disagreements.”

“We’re going to try to resolve this as quickly as possible. As I’ve said in the past, it’s absurd, and there are no charges in the House complaint that rise to the level of impeachment,” Schumer said when asked again. “… we’re going to move forward and resolve this as quickly as possible.”

Biden: I’ll Consider Further Unilateral Action on Guns, Can’t Believe Trump Said ‘No One’s Going to Touch Your Guns’ (VIDEO)

/4 Comments/in , /by

During an interview with Univision that took place last Wednesday and aired on Tuesday, President Joe Biden stated that he would consider taking further executive action on guns and criticized 2024 Republican presidential candidate former President Donald Trump because Trump “famously told the NRA that, don’t worry, no one’s going to touch your guns” if Trump won.

Interviewer Enrique Acevedo asked, “[G]un violence remains the number one cause of death for children in America. Latinos have made it a top priority across the country, especially in places like El Paso and Uvalde in Texas. Your administration called on Congress to pass common-sense gun laws, but that’s unlikely to happen in the next few months. If you’re re-elected, would you consider taking further executive action on this issue?”

Mayo Clinic Study Raises Concerns Over Irreversible Harm and Possible Cancer Link with Puberty Blockers for Boys

/3 Comments/in , , /by

A groundbreaking study conducted by the Mayo Clinic has delivered a sobering message, challenging prevailing beliefs surrounding the safety of puberty blockers for boys undergoing gender dysphoria treatment. Contrary to assertions made by transgender activists, the research suggests that these blockers may inflict irreversible harm on male physiology, with potential implications extending to cancer risks.

The preprint study, drawing upon data from the Mayo Clinic’s Pediatric Testicular Biobank for Fertility Preservation, unveiled troubling findings regarding the effects of puberty blockers on young males. Specifically, the research focused on testicular specimens from 87 biological males under the age of 18, including 16 gender dysphoric boys aged 10 to 16, nine of whom had been administered puberty blockers for varying durations.

Disturbingly, the study revealed instances of testicular atrophy and abnormalities among transgender patients who had undergone puberty suppression. One particularly alarming case involved a 12-year-old boy who experienced significant testicular shrinkage and microlithiasis – a condition associated with testicular cancer – after just 14 months of puberty blocker usage.

Moreover, a 14-year-old boy who had been on puberty blockers for over four years exhibited profound impairment in sperm production, raising concerns about long-term fertility consequences.

The study’s findings challenge the prevailing narrative that puberty blockers are entirely reversible and underscore the urgent need for further investigation into their safety and efficacy. Researchers caution that gender-affirming care with these blockers could potentially induce permanent alterations in gene expression patterns, with far-reaching implications for male reproductive health.

The study’s release has ignited a broader conversation about the risks associated with puberty blockers for young males. Notably, author J.K. Rowling, known for her criticism of the transgender agenda, highlighted the study’s significance on social media, drawing attention to its implications for medical practices and patient care.

Biden Regime Just Proved Once and for All That the U.S. Government Is the Most Corrupt Organization in the World, and It’s Not Even Close…

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Our justice system is a goner. The writing was on the wall the moment Douglass Mackey got a federal prison slot for posting an anti-Hillary meme. Then, seeing J6 patriots branded as domestic terrorists and political prisoners sealed the deal. And when they threw a parade of sham indictments at President Trump, also known as “election interference,” well, that was the cherry on top. However, if anyone’s still thinking our system might have a shred of fairness left, this latest saga ought to flip that switch for you and prove once and for all that the US Government is the most corrupt organization in the world and it’s not even close…

What has the Biden regime been up to now? The woman affectionately dubbed the “J6 Grandma,” Rebecca Lavrenz, found herself in the spotlight for all the wrong reasons. Captured on video praying outside the Capitol on January 6th, she ventured inside for about ten minutes, where she was recorded having a peaceful exchange with a police officer. Yet, astonishingly, in what’s supposed to be the “land of the free,” she was put on trial, found guilty, and now stares down the barrel of federal prison time and up to a quarter-million dollars in fines. At 72, this Christian grandmother from Colorado embodies the harsh truth: The United States, for all its lofty claims of moral superiority, operates with a level of tyranny that rivals the most oppressive regimes, all while convincing much of the world it’s the bastion of “freedom,” brimming with liberty and justice. At least with tyrants in North Korea and similar regimes, the situation is pretty clear-cut; you know exactly what you’re dealing with. But the US government plays the game with a more cunning and evil twist. It’s not just that dissent is crushed and voices silenced; it’s how it’s done—with a wide smile and draped in layers of propaganda so thick, you’d need a shovel to find your way out. This approach makes the US government’s tactics not just oppressive but insidiously deceptive. We’re the most dangerous kind of villain: the kind that masquerades as a hero.

Why We’re Not Going to Hear Much About the Woman Who Committed a Shooting Spree During the Eclipse

/2 Comments/in , , /by

. . .Tragically, there were also a few looney toons out there, like this Georgia woman who went on a shooting spree because of the solar eclipse. She claimed God told her to do it. She checked out of a hotel in Florida before the attacks, reportedly telling hotel staff as she left (via ABC News):

A woman checked out of a Florida hotel and told staff that she was going on a God-directed shooting spree because of the solar eclipse, then shot two drivers on Interstate 10 before being arrested and charged with attempted murder Monday, according to the Florida Highway Patrol.

Taylon Nichelle Celestine, 22, of Georgia, entered the highway 115 miles (180 kilometers) from the Alabama border in the Florida Panhandle and headed west. Within 5 miles (8 kilometers), she fired into a passing car several times, spraying auto glass and grazing the driver in the arm, the department said in a statement.

She then fired at a second vehicle, hitting the driver in the neck. The driver was injured and treated at a hospital.

Troopers stopped the woman after she drove for about 16 miles (26 kilometers) and found her with an AR-15 rifle and 9mm handgun. She was arrested and booked into the Holmes County jail. She was charged with attempted murder, aggravated battery with a deadly weapon and improper discharge of a firearm.

A shooting spree? An AR-15 rifle? Will there be any gun control nonsense? No. Ms. Celestine is black. While that doesn’t make a difference at all, we all know that’s not the case regarding the liberal media and how they report on shootings.
