Majority of People Think They Have Skills to ‘Live off the Land,’ Survey Says

. . .Two-thirds of surveyed Americans are confident they could “live off the land” if all other alternatives had become exhausted.

One-third of the armchair farmers think they could even last over a year self sufficiently, Talker reported.

The survey — which interviewed over 1,000 US rural residents and another thousand from cities and suburbs — also found that two-thirds from both walks of life say they “wouldn’t have any problem” growing their own produce had grocery stores closed nationwide.

Of course, the seemingly least qualified believe they are the cream of the crop when it comes to this newfound spirit of self-assured Americana.

City folks fancy themselves to be the most confident self-sustaining farmhands — 72% of urban and suburbanites told the survey they would be veggie sufficient whereas just 62% of rural residents feel the same.

Disney Co-Founder’s Great Grandchild Comes Out as Trans

The great grandchild of the late Roy Disney, who co-founded Disney with his younger brother Walt, has come out as transgender and is going on the attack against Florida’s Parental Rights in Education law.

Charlee Corra had identified as gay for more than a decade, but in 2018 at 30 years of age, the high school teacher and Disney Heiress identified as trans.

Corra told the Los Angeles Times of regret over past inaction on LGBTQ causes.

“I feel like I don’t do very much to help. I don’t call senators or take action. I felt like I could be doing more,” Corra said.

Corra announced a $250,000 matching grant to Human Rights Campaign (HRC) at the group’s annual banquet in Los Angeles in March. The grant has been echoed by Charlee’s father, Roy P. Disney, grandson of the Disney co-founder, who promised to match donations up to $500,000 for HRC. (Read more from “Disney Co-founder’s Great Grandchild Comes Out as Trans” HERE)

School Nurse Fired After Revealing Students Were Given Puberty Blockers

A school nurse in Connecticut was suspended, then fired, after revealing on her own social media page that students in her school were being given puberty blockers.

Apparently without their parents knowing.

The Daily Mail’s recent report on the situation explained Kathleen Cataford, of the Richard J. Kinzella Magnet School in Hartford, was branded transphobic and dismissed.

She was writing on a local mom’s social media page about the local school, and said, “Investigate the school system curriculum…CT is a very socially liberal, gender confused state.”

She continued, “As a public school nurse, I have an 11yo female student on puberty blockers and a dozen identifying as non-binary, all but two keeping this as a secret from their parents with the help of teachers, SSW [social workers] and school administration.” (Read more from “School Nurse Fired After Revealing Students Were Given Puberty Blockers” HERE)

Texas DA Will Drop Murder Charges Against Woman Who Performed a ‘Self-Induced’ Abortion

The Texas district attorney who filed murder charges against a woman after she allegedly performed a “self-induced” abortion announced Sunday that the charges will be dropped.

Gocha Allen Ramirez, the district attorney for Starr, Jim Hogg, and Duval counties, initially filed the charges against Lizelle Herrera but has since filed a motion to dismiss them. . .

Herrera, 26, was arrested Thursday by the Starr County Sheriff’s Office and was charged with murder for allegedly terminating her own pregnancy through a “self-induced abortion,” according to officials. She is currently being held on a $500,000 bond.

A spokesperson for the sheriff’s office told said Herrera was arrested after officials became aware that she “intentionally and knowingly cause[d] the death of an individual by self-induced abortion.”

Texas’ heartbeat law enacted in September prohibits abortions after a heartbeat is detected, which is typically around six weeks of pregnancy. The law also allows private citizens to sue people believed to be aiding and abetting the procedure, including doctors, people who fund a woman’s abortion and anyone who drives a woman to get the procedure. The U.S. Supreme Court and Texas Supreme Court have both ruled against efforts to overturn the Texas abortion law.

British Cycling Bans All Transgender Athletes Following Controversy

The British Cycling Board of Directors voted in favor of suspending its transgender athlete policy, which previously gave an option for biological male transgender athletes to compete against women. This move comes after biological male cyclist “Emily” Bridges was barred from competing in a women’s race last weekend.

As Townhall covered, Bridges, 21, was cut from competing in the women’s British National Omnium Championship on Saturday. Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI), the governing body of the sport, told British Cycling that Bridges was not eligible to participate. Reportedly, Bridges had also begun hormone therapy treatment last year.

A report from BBC noted that there were discussions among female athletes to boycott the race to protest Bridges’ involvement.

After the race, Bridges issued a statement saying “I have provided both British Cycling and the UCI with medical evidence that I meet the eligibility criteria for transgender female cyclists, including that my testosterone limit has been far below the limit prescribed by the regulations for the last 12 months.”

On Friday, British Cycling issued a statement that the organization would suspend transgender athletes from competing for time being.

Weirdos Who Want to Sexualize Your Children Should Absolutely Be Stigmatized as Groomers

What does it say about the pathetic state of the political right that instead of spending our energy advancing the ideas and institutions that promote human flourishing, we’re quibbling over whether “groomers” is the right word to refer to people who delight in sexualizing other people’s kids and hiding it from their parents?

The ranks of progressives and unmistakably pro-LGBT media — who spend their days throwing around insulting hyperbole like “Nazi,” “fascist,” and “silence is violence” — are being joined by so-called conservatives who’ve taken it upon themselves to lecture those to the right of them that ackshuuully it’s not appropriate to call the kids’ entertainment creators and state-sanctioned educators who insist on sexually indoctrinating 5-year-olds “groomers.”

It’s absolutely absurd. Conservatives aren’t abandoning their principles by abandoning needless throat-clearing about teachers’ alleged good faith and the left’s intentions.

We all know the left’s intentions because they’ve made them perfectly clear. The most recent go-around started with them maliciously branding a bill protecting parents’ rights — which are an absolutely necessity for societal survival — as a bill that banned mention of the word “gay” in schools. It was a lie; the legislation seeks to keep leftist dogmas about gender identity and sexual orientation away from 5-9-year-old kids.

When the left lost and the bill got signed into law, furious executives at Florida-based Disney began ranting about their quests to inject sexual deviancy into children’s entertainment. (Read more from “Weirdos Who Want to Sexualize Your Children Should Absolutely Be Stigmatized as Groomers” HERE)

Hillary Says People Should Be ‘Saying Gay All the Time’

Hillary Clinton, over the course of running for the office of president twice, and losing twice, has been an open advocate for homosexuality.

She’s called “gay rights” “human rights” and promoted gay marriage. She’s slammed others who disagree with her sexual lifestyle choice agenda. She’s made fun of those who disagree with her. . .

[On a recent podcast with comedian Kate McKinnon] a listener reportedly asked, “What are your thoughts on the state of attack we find on the LGBTQ+ community with Florida’s ‘Don’t Say Gay’ bill passing 22-to-17 and Texas anti-trans agenda.” . . .

Clinton said, “Oh my gosh, well, first off, it is profoundly outrageous and deeply sad that people in positions of power in our country who are more interested in undermining and opposing the rights of individuals than they are in bringing people together,” she said, “I think people have to stand up to it.

“The idea ‘don’t say gay,’ I think people should go around saying gay all the time.” (Read more from “Hillary Says People Should Be ‘Saying Gay All the Time’” HERE)

Biden Administration Will Hold States ‘Accountable’ for Outlawing ‘Life-Saving’ Sex Change Surgeries for Kids

White House press secretary Jen Psaki warned Thursday that the Department of Justice (DOJ) will hold states “accountable” for outlawing sex reassignment surgeries to minors.

The Alabama legislature passed legislation Thursday criminalizing gender reassignment and other related procedures for minors, including puberty blockers and hormone treatments, with a threat of up to 10 years imprisonment, according to Reuters. The press secretary said Alabama’s legislation, which awaits passage by the governor, is intended to “harm kids.”

“Republican elected officials are engaging in a disturbing, cynical trend of attacking vulnerable, transgender kids for purely partisan, political reasons,” the press secretary said. “Today in Alabama, instead of focusing on critical kitchen table issues, like the economy, COVID, or addressing the country’s mental health crisis, Republican lawmakers are currently debating legislation that among many things, will target trans youth with tactics that threaten to put pediatricians in prison if they provide medically necessary, life-saving healthcare for the kids they serve.”

The press secretary also announced that “lawmakers and other legislators who are contemplating these discriminatory bills have been put on notice by the Department of Justice and the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS)” and said that outlawing sex reassignment, puberty blockers and hormone treatments for children by medical professionals “may violate the Constitution and federal law.” (Read more from “Biden Administration Will Hold States ‘Accountable’ for Outlawing ‘Life-Saving’ Sex Change Surgeries for Kids” HERE)

Oklahoma State House Approves Bill to Make Abortion Illegal

The Oklahoma House gave final legislative approval on Tuesday to a bill that would make performing an abortion a felony, punishable by up to 10 years in prison.

With little discussion and no debate, the Republican-controlled House voted 70-14 to send the bill to Republican Gov. Kevin Stitt, who has previously said he’d sign any anti-abortion bill that comes to his desk. . .

The Oklahoma bill, which passed the Senate last year, makes an exception only for an abortion performed to save the life of the mother, said GOP state Rep. Jim Olsen, of Roland, who sponsored the bill. Under the bill, a person convicted of performing an abortion would face up to 10 years in prison and a $100,000 fine.

“The penalties are for the doctor, not for the woman,” Olsen said. (Read more from “Oklahoma State House Approves Bill to Make Abortion Illegal” HERE)
