Transgender Activist Pushes for LGBTQ ‘Topless’ Swim Parties for Children at Town Pools. Oh, and Parents Can’t Attend.

/0 Comments/in , /by

Transgender activist Jessica Yaniv — a biological male who identifies as a female — is pushing for LGBTQ “topless” swim parties for children as young as 12 at pools run by a Canadian town. And one of the stipulations is that parents and guardians are barred from attending. . .

Yaniv petitioned the Township of Langley in British Columbia to allow the “topless” LGBTQ swim parties at three municipal pools. . .

The paperwork indicates the “All-Bodies Swim” is for “people aged 12+” and “restricted to LGBTQ2S.” In addition, the document adds that “individuals will be permitted to be topless (at their leisure)” — which, as you can guess, likely isn’t as much of an issue for males as it would be for females.

The document also says “parents and caretakers will be prohibited from attending these events as it’s considered safe and inclusive.” . . .

While Yaniv’s delegation wanted to appear before the township council Monday night to get permission to hold the “All-Bodies Swim” events, TheBlaze on Tuesday confirmed with a council member that the matter was postponed until September.

White House Proposes Massive Rule Change to Food Stamps

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Trump administration on Tuesday released a proposed rule change that would significantly impact more than 3 million food stamp recipients. Under the new rule, states would no longer be allowed to automatically enroll people into the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) program if they’re already receiving benefits from the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program. . .

“We are changing the rules, preventing abuse of a critical safety net system, so those who need food assistance the most are the only ones who receive it,” Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue told TIME Magazine.

Perdue used the recent example of a millionaire in Minnesota who successfully signed up for food stamps, despite clearly not needing the financial help, CNN reported.

“Unfortunately, automatic eligibility has expanded to allow even millionaires and others who simply receive a TANF-funded brochure to become eligible for SNAP when they clearly don’t need it,” said Brandon Lipps, a USDA acting deputy undersecretary. . .

The Congressional Budget Office said the proposed rule change could save taxpayers $8.1 billion between 2019 to 2028. The USDA, however, believes taxpayers would save $2.5 billion per year. (Read more from “White House Proposes Massive Rule Change to Food Stamps” HERE)

Miss World America Strips Titleholder for ‘Supporting’ Trump

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Twenty-year-old conservative activist and prominent Trump supporter Kathy Zhu was reportedly stripped of her Miss Michigan crown from the Miss World America Organization over past “insensitive” social media posts and her refusal to try on a hijab at a college event in 2018.

Zhu is a Chinese immigrant who moved to the United States at age five; she became popular in conservative circles for both her support for Donald Trump during the 2016 election and for fighting off students attempting to get her expelled from the University of Central Florida for refusing to try on a hijab — an event that allegedly helped get the conservative stripped of her beauty pageant accomplishments. . .

However, the student was soon informed by the organization via email that she would have to turn in her sash and crown and disassociate with the group over past “offensive, insensitive, and inappropriate” social media posts. . .

Zhu also responded via email to the organization over her ouster, pushing back on Miss World America’s apparent opposition to the conservative’s refusal to wear a hijab. “[W]hat is ‘insensitive’ is that women in the Middle East are getting STONED TO DEATH for refusing to obey their husband’s orders to wear hijabs,” she wrote. “A Muslim woman tried to FORCIBLY put a hijab on my head without my permission. I tweeted about it on my social media, and it got the attention of the media. Almost everyone was supportive of me refusing to be put in that situation.”

On Friday morning, Zhu thanked her supporters and announced that she will not be taking legal action against the organization because they have “suffered enough negative publicity.”

Couple Arrested for Allegedly Strangling Newborn Child to Death

/0 Comments/in , /by

A couple in Oxnard, California, was arrested Friday after allegedly strangling the woman’s newborn baby boy to death.

Reports state that police responded to a call about an injury at St. John’s Medical Center at 7:53 a.m. Friday. The officers were reportedly told that the baby had “suspicious injuries” and was in serious condition. . .

St. John’s Medical Center released a statement on Saturday reminding residents of California’s Safe Surrender Law. . .

While we deal with tragedies every day, the staff at St. John’s Regional Medical Center are devastated by the alleged incident. In the midst of this investigation, it is timely to remind our community of California’s Safe Surrender Law wherein: Newborn infants can be dropped off at any safe surrender site such as hospitals, fire stations and police stations, within 72 hours of birth, with no questions asked.

Both suspects were arrested for felony assault on a child by means of force resulting in the child’s death and are scheduled to appear in court Tuesday afternoon. Records from the Ventura County Sheriff state that the couple’s bail has been set at $5 million. (Read more from “Couple Arrested for Allegedly Strangling Newborn Child to Death” HERE)

Woman Forced to Close Business After Refusing to Wax Male Genitals of Transgender Person

/0 Comments/in , /by

A Brazilian immigrant living in Canada was forced to close up her small business after refusing to wax the male genitals of transgender LGBT activist Jessica Yaniv, formerly known as Jonathan Yaniv.

Citing discrimination based on gender identity, Yaniv filed a complaint with the British Columbia Human Rights Tribunal seeking financial restitution. The activist has filed complaints against 15 other estheticians with the tribunal, claiming “gender identity” discrimination, as well, The Daily Wire reported last year. It was not until Wednesday, however, that Yaniv’s identity was allowed to be disclosed.

According to The Post Millennial, Marcia Da Silva claims that she refused to service the complainant “due to safety concerns raised by her husband and alleged harassment on Yaniv’s part and not because of the claimant’s identity.” . . .

“Some of my clients have been very significantly affected on a personal level. [Another client also] closed her business, she has been depressed, anxious, sleepless and that has gone on for a period of many many months,” said Jay Cameron, a lawyer from the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms representing Da Silva.

“It is a very serious thing to launch a human rights complaint against a person. My clients are people,” said Cameron. “They have a right to make a living and this has interfered with their livelihood, but also you have the stigma of being associated with this hanging over you.” (Read more from “Woman Forced to Close Business After Refusing to Wax Male Genitals of Transgender Person” HERE)

Drag Queen Reads ‘What Color Is Your Underwear?’ to Young Children

/0 Comments/in , /by

A “Drag Queen Story Hour” event at a Dallas, Texas, library last Saturday featured two drag queens, one of whom read the story What Color Is Your Underwear? to small children.

More than 50 parents brought their children to the story hour held at the Grauwyler Park Branch Library and hosted by drag queens “Cassie Nova” (aka James Gary Love) and “Jenna Skyy” (aka Joel S. Hoselton). . .

A video of the event can be viewed at the website of pro-family organization Mass Resistance, which protested the story hour.

According to Mass Resistance, library staff set up an activity table with drag queen coloring pages so the children could color in the “queens.”

When a Mass Resistance activist asked a librarian who selected the books to be read to the children, the librarian reportedly responded that the Drag Queen Story Hour event is simply a form of “entertainment.” She added the library had conducted background checks on the drag queens

Pro-Life Activist Gets First Amendment Win From ‘Planned Parenthood’s Favorite Judge’

/0 Comments/in , /by

A federal judge in San Francisco handed a leading pro-life activist a major free speech win on Wednesday evening with a tentative ruling that would severely trim down Planned Parenthood’s lawsuit over undercover videos put out by the Center for Medical Progress (CMP).

The ruling from Judge William Orrick — whose “longstanding relationship” with Planned Parenthood has drawn protests from Daleiden’s team — rejected Planned Parenthood’s claim that CMP activists were trying to incite threats and violence against the abortion provider with the release of the investigative footage, a CMP news release explains.

“I am inclined to exclude from the case all damages that stem from third parties’ reactions to the release of the video recordings as impermissible publication damages barred by the First Amendment absent a defamation claim,” Orrick wrote. “This would include costs for personal security for plaintiffs’ staff and security guards for facilities; costs for physical upgrades to plaintiffs’ facilities (e.g., security cameras, fencing, bulletproof glass); costs to fix incidents of vandalism or arson; costs to address hacks of plaintiffs’ computer systems (including lost business due to inability to make reservations), as well as costs to prevent future intrusion into computer systems.”

Orrick said, “These damages are the result of third-party behavior and reaction to the publication of the video recordings.”

However, he added, “This would not include damages for investigating intrusions into plaintiffs’ conferences and facilities and improvements to access-security measures for conferences and facilities” or “nominal or statutory damages.”

In 2015, CMP released the first of many undercover videos showing Planned Parenthood’s alleged involvement in a lucrative fetal tissue racket. Planned Parenthood responded by taking the pro-life organization to court.

CMP said that definitively removing the third-party damage claims could not only decrease the scope of Planned Parenthood’s lawsuit from potentially around $20 million to around or under $100,000, but it would also strike a blow for citizen journalists like Daleiden and his colleagues.

“Now that all the facts, evidence, and testimony are in, even Planned Parenthood’s favorite judge refuses to buy into the abortion giant’s fake news and lies about the honest motives and protected speech of pro-life citizen journalists,” a statement from Daleiden reads. “Planned Parenthood is a government-sponsored crime syndicate selling baby body parts like widgets on an assembly line and should only appear in federal court as a criminal defendant.”

This is not the only court battle that Daleiden is facing for his undercover reporting. The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals recently upheld an almost $200,000 fine against the organization over videos released despite a judge’s gag order.

The state of California charged Daleiden with 15 felonies related to the videos in 2017, but the pro-life activist was granted a stay by the California Supreme Court in March.

Presidential Candidates Include Preferred Gender Pronouns in Their Twitter Bios

/0 Comments/in , /by

In the choose-your-own-gender era, it’s not politically correct to exclusively utilize pronouns that match an individual’s biological gender. Instead, according to the proponents of LGBT ideology, you should use each person’s preferred pronouns and ask people if you’re not sure of their preferences. . .

The Hill reported that Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) has included the pronouns “She/her” in her @ewarren account bio. Her @SenWarren Twitter account does not currently include any pronouns. . .

New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio includes “He/him” on his @BilldeBlasio bio. The @NYCMayor bio does not include pronouns.

And Obama-era Housing and Urban Development Secretary Julián Castro has pronouns in both English and Spanish (“He/Him/Él”) in his bio. (Read more from “Presidential Candidates Include Preferred Gender Pronouns in Their Twitter Bios” HERE)

Planned Parenthood Has Revealed Its True Self for the World to See

/0 Comments/in , /by

. . .In just the latest episode of truth-telling this week, Planned Parenthood is finally giving up its long-running charade as a women’s health organization and is admitting that it is merely a for-profit abortion advocacy group.

The organization publicly dismissed its president over “philosophical differences.” Those differences, according to a letter posted by the ousted head, Dr. Leana Wen, stem from the fact that Wen apparently thought she was working for a women’s healthcare organization that also performed abortions — rather than an abortion advocacy organization with an overtly political agenda.

“I came to Planned Parenthood to run a national healthcare organization,” Wen said in her resignation letter. “The new board has determined that the priority of Planned Parenthood moving forward is to double down on abortion rights advocacy.”

This is a startling admission from Planned Parenthood, which for years has insisted that it is, first and foremost, focused on an all-encompassing view of women’s health. “This is health care,” claimed a recent public relations campaign. The group has maintained for years that abortion only constitutes 3% of its services.

In Wen, Planned Parenthood found an unapologetic advocate for abortion services. However, she also reportedly balked at the rapacious way the organization wanted to advocate, and celebrate, abortions — in addition to its emphatic embrace of a deeply progressive over-arching philosophy. According to reporting from BuzzFeed, Wen routinely deleted the word “sexual” from the phrase “sexual and reproductive healthcare” in Planned Parenthood press releases and documents, and resisted using abortion as a stand-alone term — adding “abortion care” or rewording it entirely.

Previously Deported Guatemalan Accused of Killing Mother and Two Daughters

/0 Comments/in , /by

Another mother has been permanently separated from her two daughters by the grave, allegedly murdered by a previously known illegal alien.

Three more people are dead in Des Moines, Iowa, allegedly killed by an illegal alien who was able to remain in the country despite several encounters with police. Criminal illegal aliens are supposed to be immediately removed so they are not able to commit more crimes in this country.

According to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), Marvin Oswaldo Escobar-Orellana, 31, who has been charged with the murder of a mother and two daughters Tuesday night in downtown Des Moines, is an illegal alien from Guatemala who had been previously deported twice. “Escobar-Orellana, aka, Marvin O. Esquivel-Lopez, was previously removed (deported) from the United States in 2010 and again in 2011,” said ICE spokesman Shawn Neudauer in a statement. “He has a prior federal conviction for illegal entry into the United States in 2010.”

While he is currently not in ICE custody, which prevents ICE from offering more information on his criminal history, ICE did confirm that an immigration detainer was filed by the agency on July 16 with the Polk County Jail. That would allow ICE to apprehend him so he can’t flee if he were to post bond with the local jail, which was set at $3 million.

According to the Des Moines Register, Esquivel-Lopez, which is the alias listed on all of the suspect’s public records, had numerous traffic tickets. He even appeared in court the day before the shootings to pay “more than $1,400 in fines and fees related to a May traffic incident in which he was cited for failure to maintain control and driving without a license or proof of insurance.”

It should be standard procedure for police to immediately ask the citizenship status of someone involved in a traffic accidents, especially those who drive without licenses. As a result of localities violating 8 U.S.C. 1324 by shielding illegal aliens from detection, Rossibeth Flores-Rodriguez, 29; Grecia Daniela Alvarado-Flores, 11; and Ever Jose Mejia-Flores, 5 are now dead.

It’s not more evil for an illegal alien to commit murder than it is for an American. But illegal aliens, if our laws were followed, should be gone immediately upon their first encounter with police so that they can’t harm more Americans.

This alien gave a false identity to police. ICE had his real identity. The police could have worked with ICE to determine his real identity and prevent future crimes.

According to the Epoch Times, one citizen in North Carolina collated criminal data from just 30 percent of North Carolina counties and found that in just the past 18 months, “more than 331 illegal aliens have been charged with 1,172 child rapes and child sexual assaults.”

Even after removing illegal aliens, we must keep them from coming back. This criminal was able to come in twice before, and that was at a time when Border Patrol was not nearly as distracted as it is today. Just this year, Border Patrol caught 19,000 with previous convictions already in America coming to our border. Can you imagine how many they don’t catch? Because current policy is putting the illegal aliens before America’s security, Border Patrol is drawn off to serving illegal aliens so that the cartels can strategically bring the worst criminal elements back into the country.

Border Patrol must actually patrol our frontier and ensure that people like Escobar-Orellana don’t return. How many of the 1.8 million criminal aliens ICE has deported over the past decade made it back in because they know we are often down to a handful of agents for a 60-mile stretch of border?

Every time an illegal alien dies of natural causes, it is an impetus for Congress to hold endless hearings berating immigration officials. Why is a murder like this not an impetus to address how current law is not being applied in defense of Americans?
