New Report Exposes Insane Liberal Classes Taught at U.S. Universities

/0 Comments/in , , /by

A new report exposes the radical leftist courses offered at universities across the U.S., which range from “Sex and Socialism” to “Cowboys, Gangsters, and Drag Kings: Introduction to Critical Masculinity Studies” to the “Gendered Politics of Food.”

Young America’s Foundation (YAF) has produced this report, Comedy & Tragedy, every year since 1995 to “document the intellectual abuse and flat-out indoctrination happening by way of the appalling curriculum at our country’s most (so-called) prestigious institutions of higher education.” . . .

There are classes on “queering God or queering the Bible,” Brown explained. “Those courses go into how, throughout history, God has been seen as definitively masculine or male, but they ask, ‘or is He?’” . . .

A number of Catholic universities made the list. DePaul University offers a class called “Sexual Justice: Lesbians, Gays and the Law,” which “examines the historical and contemporary relationships between lesbians, gays, and the law in the U.S., focusing on the intersections of power, sexuality, and identity with issues of sexuality-based discrimination.”

Georgetown has a class called “The Breast: Image, Myth, Legend,” for which no description was offered; Seton Hall University students have the option of enrolling in “The Politics of Marriage,” a topic which “requires careful attention as many important voices here (women and queer individuals in particular) are historically marginalized.” (Read more from “New Report Exposes Insane Liberal Classes Taught at U.S. Universities” HERE)

Disgusting: Hillary Claims It Is ‘Dangerous’ to Not Have Abortion as a Human Right

/0 Comments/in , /by

Hillary Clinton called for abortion (under the guise of “reproductive rights) to be re-included on the U.S. Department of State’s human rights report, saying it was a “dangerous decision” by the Trump administration to remove it, according to Life News.

The former secretary of state made the comments in support of the Reproductive Rights Are Human Rights Act, which was introduced Thursday.

“The Reproductive Rights Are Human Rights Act would correct the Trump administration’s dangerous decision to remove reporting on reproductive rights from the State Department’s annual reports on human rights practices around the world,” she wrote on Twitter. “By requiring annual reporting on women’s access to basic health care like contraception, safe abortion, and maternal health care around the world, Congress can make sure the rights of women and girls will no longer be up for grabs in each election.” . . .

Michael Kozak, an ambassador for the Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights and Labor, said last year that “reproductive rights” were removed from the report specifically because abortion is not a human right under international law.

“We have never taken the position that abortion was a right under—a human right under international law,” Kozak said. “This is supposed to be internationally recognized human rights, and it’s an issue on which—some countries prohibit abortion, some countries, like our own, pretty much no restriction on it, and we don’t say one of those is right and one of those is wrong.

‘Captain Marvel’ TANKS Hours After Premiere

/0 Comments/in , /by

“Captain Marvel” was hit with tens of thousands of audience reviews just hours after the film opened in theaters on Friday, scoring a dismal audience rating on Rotten Tomatoes of 33%.

“As of 8 a.m., the film had a 33 percent audience score from more than 58,000 reviews,” reported The Hollywood Reporter. The outlet credited the low audience rating to “trolls” sandbagging the film, noting that the number of reviews in a matter of mere hours from “Captain Marvel’s” opening is “more than the total of audience score reviews for Avengers: Infinity War for its entire theatrical run.” . . .

“Very little to get excited about here as the villain is the best character in the movie. Brie Larson is awfully miscast in the lead role. Thumb up for Mendelsohn and Jackson. As a lead-in to End Game it’s both inadequate and unnecessary,” reads one review from the site. . .

Rotten Tomatoes recently amended their system to bar the general public from leaving reviews before the film is released. This was apparently an effort to cut back on “trolls” leaving negative reviews.

“We are disabling the comment function prior to a movie’s release date,” said Rotten Tomatoes, according to The Hollywood Reporter. “Unfortunately, we have seen an uptick in non-constructive input, sometimes bordering on trolling, which we believe is a disservice to our general readership. We have decided that turning off this feature, for now, is the best course of action. Don’t worry though, fans will still get to have their say: Once a movie is released, audiences can leave a user rating and comments as they always have.” (Read more from “‘Captain Marvel’ TANKS Hours After Premiere” HERE)

Chinese-Style Infanticide Comes to the U.S.

/0 Comments/in , /by

Communist Party officials fanned out across the country arresting young mothers—some seven, eight, or even nine months along–for the crime of being pregnant. These were taken to clinics where their unborn babies were given “poison shots” while still in the womb. Cesarean sections to remove the now dead or dying infants followed. . .

I was deeply shocked by Beijing’s crimes against mothers and babies, and left China determined to call attention to their plight. Years of conferences, campus speeches, and media interviews followed. My testimony helped convince Congress to cut funding—through the U.N. Population Fund–to China’s horrific program. I am proud to say that funding cut-off remains in place today.

I had long been certain that the kinds of atrocities I had witnessed in China could never, ever happen here. In communist China, yes, but not in democratic America. Not in the land of the free and the home of the brave. . .

It was the Democrat governor of Virginia, Ralph Northam, who first alerted me to the possibility that I might be mistaken about the character of my country. In a bizarre radio interview, Northam extended the “right to choose” past the point of childbirth, saying that babies could be killed—by medical neglect—after they were born. . .

Watching the Senate endorse infanticide, I felt as though I had suddenly been transported to another country—a country with no history of respect for human rights, a country whose written constitution was just a piece of paper to be shredded at will by a handful of powerful men and women, a country where the strong trampled on the rights of the weakest members of society.

Transgender — Who Was Impregnated by Gay Partner — Gives Birth

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Wyley — who was born female — had been on testosterone treatments and sports a beard, deeper voice, and has had breast-removal surgery. But Wyley still possessed a vagina.

Stephan learned about Wyley’s female genitalia after the couple met on the gay dating app Grindr, and their relationship proceeded anyway — but the lingering question was, “Can Wyley become pregnant?” . . .

But then Wyley started experiencing “morning sickness” and then learned of the pregnancy at 11 weeks — a circumstance that “definitely was not planned,” Wyley said, adding that “I am a man, and I am actually pregnant.” . . .

Now Wyley Simpson and Stephan Gaeth — who revealed their last names for a KENS-TV report — have a baby they’ve named Rowan Fox. . .

“I was really unsure. And then … it felt right, and it felt better as we talked about it,” Gaeth added to the station. “We did a lot of talking, a lot of preparing. We went to prenatal yoga together, we watched a lot of videos online, and figured out our birth plan together.” (Read more from “Transgender — Who Was Impregnated by Gay Partner — Gives Birth” HERE)

Dems ‘Fast-Track’ Shocking Abortion Bill Designed to Turn State Into ‘Abortion Capital of America’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Illinois’ new Democratic governor, and a complicit Democratic legislature, are reportedly “fast-tracking” a pair of identical measures in the Illinois House and Senate designed to greatly extend legal abortion within the state of Illinois, wipe out parental notice requirements, and deny any and all rights to any pre-born individuals in the state. . .

Per that outline, the bills would mimic similar measures in New York state and Virginia, which would legalize abortion up until the moment of birth (and, potentially, throughout the birthing process). Like New York’s law, it would alter the state’s code, completely decriminalizing any harm or murder of a wanted child — through domestic abuse or intentional act — along with other major changes to state policy.

“According to the legal group’s analysis, the bill would prohibit the state from interfering in any way with abortions. It would erase criminal penalties for performing abortions and allow non-doctors to do them. The legislation also would repeal the partial-birth abortion ban and abortion clinic regulations that protect women’s health,” pro-life news outlet LifeNews reports, based on a legislative analysis provided by in-state, pro-life public interest law firm, the Thomas More Society.

Additionally, the state is now “prohibited from intruding in a woman’s ‘reproductive health care decision-making’ and creates an avenue for a woman to bring a lawsuit should she feel this right was violated,” meaning that individual localities cannot roll back any part of this abortion legislation. It also appears that the bill will punish those doctors and other medical services professionals who will not perform and do not refer for abortion — potentially even those who have moral objections to the procedure.

LifeNews adds that “the Illinois legislation would treat abortion as a ‘fundamental right’ and strip away even minor protections for unborn babies and medical professionals who object to abortions.” (Read more from “Dems ‘Fast-Track’ Shocking Abortion Bill Designed to Turn State Into ‘Abortion Capital of America'” HERE)

LGBTQ Activists Enraged Trump Served Chick-Fil-A to Football Champions

/0 Comments/in , /by

Universities may be banning Chick-fil-A, but President Trump’s White House has not, and that’s just way too triggering for some LGBTQ activists.

Earlier this week, the president served another round of fast food to college football champions, only this time, instead of McDonald’s and Wendy’s, the players were served Chick-fil-A, sparking anger from prominent LGBTQ publications.

“For the second time this year, Donald Trump has invited an athletic team to the White House and boasted about serving them fast food,” wrote Tracy Gilchrist at The Advocate. “But this time, chicken sandwiches from the virulently anti-LGBTQ company Chick-fil-A were arranged on silver platters for champions on the North Dakota State Bison football team Monday.”

Trump reportedly said that the athletes requested Chick-fil-A. “We could’ve had chefs, we could have, but we had fast food — because I know you people,” Trump told the athletes. “Chick-fil-A, they say? Chick-fil-A.” . . .

“For the second time in his presidency, Donald Trump has served fast food to an athletic team to ‘celebrate’ their victory,” wrote [Bill] Browning. “This time, the President who has attacked the LGBTQ community the most served up Chick-fil-A, a company known for opposing LGBTQ rights.” (Read more from “LGBTQ Activists Enraged Trump Served Chick-Fil-A to Football Champions” HERE)

Troubling: U.S. Pastors Increasingly Accepting Homosexual Marriage

/0 Comments/in , /by

Once news hit that the global United Methodist Church upheld its ban on same-sex marriage and gay clergy, a Methodist pastor in North Carolina promised to fight back against the ruling until it’s reversed.

“Let us not rest until all people can be welcome to worship God in any space that they choose,” the Rev. Jason Butler with Open Table Methodist Church in Raleigh said, WNCN-TV reported. “That is what we will fight for.” . . .

Butler told WNCN that when he heard about the ruling, he “was just broken. I felt almost sick inside because I knew that for so many of our LGBTQ friends this was yet another voice, another church saying that we close our doors.”

Depris Price noted to WNCN that he’s acquainted with adversity as an openly gay black man and was taught from childhood that it was a sin to be himself.

“It was the untouched subject,” Price told the station. “You did not talk about this, and even if you did, it was only during like Sunday school, and you just said it’s wrong to be homosexual. There was no reasoning, there was no explanation.” (Read more from “Troubling: U.S. Pastors Increasingly Accepting Homosexual Marriage” HERE)

This Pro-Life Mom Got Tired of Fashion’s Support for the Abortion Industry. So She Started Her Own Brand

/0 Comments/in , /by

People are working to spread the pro-life message through cultural media like music, movies, and poetry, but what about fashion? One homeschooling Philadelphia-area mom has that front covered.

Carla D’Addesi and her daughters have always had a passion for shopping. “It’s our cardio,” she joked to me about their retail habits. But when they realized that so many of their favorite clothing lines were kicking back proceeds to organizations that didn’t share their views, they decided to stop buying in and start their own fashion line.

“We felt very marginalized by the fashion industry,” Carla told me at the 2019 Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC). “There were a lot of brands that were anti-American or they were giving our dollars to organizations like Planned Parenthood that went against our core principles.”

The relationship between the fashion world and the pro-abortion movement isn’t a secret. In 2017, 43 fashion designers lined up to help out Planned Parenthood during New York Fashion Week.

Conservative corporate activism watchdog 2ndVote keeps a running list of companies that have either donated to Planned Parenthood or have given to third parties that do. That list includes several famous brands such as Converse, Dockers, Banana Republic, Ann Taylor, and Old Navy. And if you want to support America’s largest abortion provider more directly, there are several smaller brands that are more vocal about their pro-abortion stance.

Ultimately, the idea for the company started with a gradual “build-up,” Carla’s 18-year-old daughter Vittoria told me. “Over time we would joke about it, you know, ‘Mom, you’re gonna have to start sewing soon, because there’s no more stores.’”

“Then one day,” Vittoria continued, “like a good Italian family, we’re sitting at our dinner table over a bowl of pasta and we were talking, you know, ‘What can we do? What’s something different that nobody else has done yet, but that can support the movement and be good for everyone?’”

“My family sits around the dinner table and we do discuss religion and politics from the time the kids were little,” Carla explained, noting that she also homeschooled her three daughters. “We have always stood outside of the Planned Parenthoods and prayed. We have been at rallies. We do the March for Life. And we just saw that the Left so appeared to be reaching our kids in pop culture and we saw a huge gap.”

“So we said, ‘Let’s try and reach the other side for life by making life glamorous and starting a fashion line,’” Carla recalled. “So this is absolutely a brand on a mission for people on a mission.”

Carla said that recent controversies over late-term abortion laws and infanticide have only increased the market for her brand.

“And believe me, there’s never been a better time to launch a pro-life fashion line than today,” Carla explained. “Because forget about abortion; it’s now about infanticide; it’s now about botched abortions where there’s babies gasping for breath on the table and we are denying them the right to life.”

“We did the research,” Carla said. “There’s nine million teen, tweens, Millennial young women that identify as being pro-life.” And she and her daughters want “to empower them” and “to make them stronger and we’re using the medium of fashion to do that.”

Right now the COL 1972 site features pieces like hoodies, knit hats and sweatpants, and travel bags, most of which are emblazoned with the company’s logo. Over time, the goal is to build out more options for both men and women.

But where does the company’s creative spark come from? So far, COL 1972 has gotten some help from a designer in Los Angeles, but Carla says that she and the girls are going to roll out their own designs this spring with their “Life is Amazing” campaign when the weather starts warming up.

“So you’re going to be seeing beach bags, flip-flops, dresses that just have the simple message: ‘Life is Amazing,’” Carla says. “Because it is!” (For more from the author of “This Pro-Life Mom Got Tired of Fashion’s Support for the Abortion Industry.

Waitress Posts a Photo of Customers Acting Weird — and It Ends up Saving Children From Abuse

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By The Blaze. A waitress is being hailed as a hero for her actions documenting the suspicious behavior she saw from a family that was visiting an Olive Garden in Kentucky. . .

She says that the man was acting very aggressively and force feeding one of the children.

Cooper was able to stage a photo with customers at a nearby table in order to capture the family in the background. She says they got suspicious and left soon afterward. . .

When she got home, she posted a description of what she saw and added the photos to her Facebook account. . .

After seeing the conditions at the home of Jessica Woodworth and Mark Lee Pierce, police removed the children and charged the parents with aggravated child abuse and neglect. (Read more from “Waitress Posts a Photo of Customers Acting Weird — and It Ends up Saving Children From Abuse” HERE)

Police Charge Parents With Child Abuse After Waitress’ Facebook Post

By WPSD Local 6. During Cooper’s shift, she and her coworkers noticed something unusual about a family they just seated. “I first walked around to the baby. She looked at me with a face that said help,” Cooper said. . .

“I can’t even describe to you how bad she looked,” Cooper said pointing to her face, “and how and why nobody noticed it.” . . .

She shared the photo of the little girl and the partial plate number, and she asked people on Facebook to help track the parents down. “My phone would not just stop going off,” Cooper said. Her post was shared more than 14,000 times. A childhood classmate saw that post and started digging.

“I got everything so I could run him and find who he was. “said Aaron Caldwell, a Metropolis 911 dispatcher. “I found that and ended up contacting Paris Police Department, Tennessee.” . . .

He called both agencies, and 20 minutes later he got a call back from the Paris Police Department. They removed two children from the home and arrested Jessica Woodworth and Mark Lee Pierce on charges of aggravated child abuse and neglect.
