Disturbed: Harris Once Bragged About Working ‘Behind the Scenes’ to Get Sex Change Surgeries for Trans Inmates

/0 Comments/in , /by

Vice President Kamala Harris previously said she worked “behind the scenes” during her term as California attorney general to secure sex change surgeries for California inmates despite the fact that it was against state policy at the time.

Harris bragged about circumventing the California Department of Corrections & Rehabilitation to ensure that transgender inmates were given access to medical services, including sex-change surgeries, despite denying a surgery request to an inmate in April of 2015, according to the Washington Blade. When asked about her track record during her failed 2020 presidential primary campaign, Harris implied that she sometimes had to do things against her personal beliefs, but insisted that she worked “behind the scenes” to ensure that transgender inmates.

In January of 2019, Harris was facing criticism for her anti-LGBTQ track record as California attorney general when her office denied sex-change surgery for inmates, according to the Blade. In an April 2015 legal filing reported by the Blade, Harris, along with other state attorneys, denied transgender inmate Michelle-Lael Norsworthy’s request to obtain a sex-change surgery.

“Norsworthy has been treated for gender dysphoria for over 20 years, and there is no indication that her condition has somehow worsened to the point where she must obtain sex-reassignment surgery now rather than waiting until this case produces a final judgment on the merits,” the brief reads.

In an attempt to defend herself, Harris maintained that she provided transgender inmates the sex-changes she said they “needed” and “deserved.” (Read more from “Disturbed: Harris Once Bragged About Working ‘Behind the Scenes’ to Get Sex Change Surgeries for Trans Inmates” HERE)

Biden Camp Suggests President Quickly Endorsed Kamala Harris to Defy Barack Obama

/1 Comment/in , /by

There’s buzz swirling within the Biden camp that the president’s swift endorsement of Kamala Harris was his revenge on prominent party leaders — including Barack Obama — who pressured him to bow out of the race against his will, sources told The Post.

Joe Biden, who said he was dropping out “in defense of democracy” during his public address Wednesday, had been told by Obama to allow delegates at next month’s Democratic National Convention in Chicago to decide a new candidate, a source close to the Biden family claimed.

“It was Joe’s big f–k you,” the source said. “Joe said, ‘If I’m out, then I am endorsing her.’”

Talk among insiders is that Biden saw this as a final way to assert some control over his ouster.

A well-placed Democratic Party source said they have heard the same, telling The Post that Obama, former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and New York Senator Chuck Schumer wanted to hold “a mini primary” which Obama believed Harris would not win.

Accused Child Rapist Pulled Over for DUI With 6 Kids in His Car, Claims They’re His ‘Friends’

/1 Comment/in , /by

Newly resurfaced footage shows the disturbing DUI arrest of an alleged child rapist who had six young boys and girls in his car along with empty bottles of tequila and Fireball whiskey.

Jeremy Guthrie was arrested two years ago on a New Mexico highway while driving erratically, and police discovered the children — one of whom he allegedly raped and impregnated after meeting on social media.

Police bodycam footage from July 5, 2022, showed then-41-year-old Guthrie driving across a highway, and behaving incoherently once stopped.

When police approached the car, they were stunned to find it full of young boys and girls, who Guthrie claimed were “his friends” and who he insisted, with slurred words, were all 18. . .

Once booked, Guthrie was accused of raping a 12-year-old girl who was in the car. (Read more from “Accused Child Rapist Pulled Over for DUI With 6 Kids in His Car, Claims They’re His ‘Friends’” HERE)

FBI Says Trump Was Indeed Struck by Bullet During Assassination Attempt

/1 Comment/in , /by

Nearly two weeks after Donald Trump’s near assassination, the FBI confirmed Friday that it was indeed a bullet that struck the former president’s ear, moving to clear up conflicting accounts about what caused the former president’s injuries after a gunman opened fire at a Pennsylvania rally.

“What struck former President Trump in the ear was a bullet, whether whole or fragmented into smaller pieces, fired from the deceased subject’s rifle,” the agency said in a statement.

The one-sentence statement from the FBI marked the most definitive law enforcement account of Trump’s injuries and followed ambiguous comments earlier in the week from Director Christopher Wray that appeared to cast doubt on whether Trump had actually been hit by a bullet.

A Majority of Likely Voters Believe the 2024 Election Will Be Tainted by Cheating, Survey Finds

/11 Comments/in , /by

A majority of voters are concerned that the 2024 election will be marred by cheating, a new survey released by Rasmussen Reports and the Heartland Institute finds.

Sixty-two percent of “Likely Voters” are “concerned that cheating will affect the outcome of the 2024 election, including 37% who are Very Concerned,” the survey found. When broken down among presidential preference, 83 percent of voters who claimed they voted for former President Donald Trump in 2020 are “at least somewhat concerned that cheating will affect the outcome of the 2024 election,” the survey found. Forty-two percent of voters who said they supported President Joe Biden in the last election cycle expressed the same concern.

Concerns about the security of mail-in ballots were also raised in the survey. Twenty-two percent of Republicans surveyed as well as 18 percent of both Democrats and participating “voters not affiliated with either major party, [said] they either received more than one official ballot in the mail or received a ballot for someone who does not live at their address in 2020.” The share of voters who said they received “multiple mail-in ballots in 2020 is higher (20%) among voters” in swing states Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin, according to the survey.

The survey was conducted amongst 2,466 likely voters nationally and “5,605 likely voters in the battleground states” of Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin. The survey was conducted via phone and online between July 5 – 12.

“The fact that more than 60% of likely voters are concerned about election integrity should be a massive wake-up call to all those who refuse to admit that potential cheating in elections is a major problem,” Editorial Director of The Heartland Institute Chris Talgo said.

Trump Rages at ‘Gavin Newscum’ for Ordering Homeless Encampments Cleared Following Supreme Court Decision

/2 Comments/in , , /by

Former President Donald Trump raged at California Governor Gavin Newsom (D) on Thursday after news broke that the Democrat issued an executive order for state agencies to begin clearing homeless encampments across his state.

Trump shared a local news clip on the order and captioned it by writing, “Why didn’t Gavin Newscum do this a long time ago? He’s only doing it because, just like Crooked Joe Biden, his Radical Left Democrat Presidential Candidate, Lyin’ Kamala Harris, is losing BIG in the Polls. They just did it for Political Reasons, because she comes from California, and looks terrible. Right after the Election, it will go back to SLUM LIKE condition, unless we WIN — THEN, AMERICA WILL BE GREAT AGAIN!”

. . .

Newsom has long been accused of allowing California’s homelessness problem to grow into a crisis that has caused alarm in major cities like San Francisco, Los Angeles, and San Diego. Newsom released a video clip saying he doesn’t “believe there is anything more urgent or frustrating than addressing the issue of homeless encampments.” (Read more from “Trump Rages at ‘Gavin Newscum’ for Ordering Homeless Encampments Cleared Following Supreme Court Decision” HERE)

Corrupt U.S. Drugs Agents Boasted of Using Prostitutes on ‘World Debauchery Tour’

/6 Comments/in , /by

Corrupt US drugs enforcement agents boasted about being on a “world debauchery tour” of “boozing and whoring”, leaked conversations show.

Officers traded lurid sexual images, discussed hiring prostitutes and joked about rape in WhatsApp messages obtained as part of an FBI criminal misconduct investigation.

The group chat from 2017 included five Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) agents, one of whom remains with the agency today.

The agents in the group chat led a undercover money laundering operation codenamed Whitewash, criticised in a blistering internal audit after it was shut down in 2017.

The audit found the agents’ visiting of bars, strip clubs and hotels in Paris, Madrid and the Caribbean was “unacceptable” and rife with corruption. (Read more from “Corrupt U.S. Drugs Agents Boasted of Using Prostitutes on ‘World Debauchery Tour’” HERE)

Trump Backs Out of Harris Debate as Team Says Democrats Want to Install Someone ‘Better’

/3 Comments/in , /by

GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump’s campaign team backed out of a debate with Vice President Kamala Harris, saying it wouldn’t commit to debate details until the Democratic Party chooses its nominee.

“Given the continued political chaos surrounding Crooked Joe Biden and the Democrat Party, general election debate details cannot be finalized until Democrats formally decide on their nominee,” the former president’s campaign spokesman, Steven Cheung, said in a statement on Thursday.

“There is a strong sense by many in the Democrat Party,” Cheung said, highlighting former President Barack Obama specifically, “that Kamala Harris is a Marxist fraud who cannot beat President Trump, and they are still holding out for someone ‘better.’”

The Trump campaign’s announcement comes two days after the former president said he “absolutely” wanted to debate Harris at some point. At the time, he clarified that while he had previously agreed to debate then-presumed nominee President Joe Biden, he hadn’t agreed to anything debatewise with Harris.

Cheap Daily Supplement Seems to Boost Brain Function in Older People

/6 Comments/in , , /by

What’s good for your aging gut may also be good for your aging brain. The first study of its kind in twins has found that taking daily protein and prebiotic supplements can improve scores on memory tests in people over the age of 60.

The findings are food for thought, especially as the same visual memory and learning test is used to detect early signs of Alzheimer’s disease.

The double-blinded trial involved two cheap plant fiber prebiotics that are available over the counter in numerous nations around the world. Prebiotics are non-digestible consumables that help stimulate our gut microbes.

One is called inulin, and it is a dietary fiber in the class fructan. Another is called fructooligosaccharides (FOS), and it is a plant carbohydrate often used as a natural low calorie sweetener.

To test the effect of these supplements on the aging brain, researchers at King’s College London enrolled 36 pairs of twins over the age of 60. Each duo was randomly split so that one twin was assigned a daily prebiotic in a protein powder and the other was assigned a daily placebo in a protein powder.

California’s $20 Minimum Wage Leads 89% of Fast-Food Restaurants to Reduce Hours

/3 Comments/in , /by

The minimum wage for fast-food workers in California jumped to $20 an hour on April 1, a $4 pay bump for 553,000 fast workers.

However, restaurant chain owners raised concerns that the minimum wage increases would hurt their bottom line, and owners have cut workers’ hours, raised food prices, and even shut down some locations.

In June, Rubio’s Coastal Grill announced it was closing 48 restaurants and filed for bankruptcy, citing the minimum wage increase as one of the reasons for its financial troubles.

Now, more than a month after the Mexican restaurants’ announcement, the Employment Policies Institute published a report revealing that 67% of fast-food restaurants said the minimum wage increase will cost $100,000 per location every year. One in four owners said it would cost more than $200,000 per year.

The survey was filled out by 200 business owners across the Golden State. (Read more from “California’s $20 Minimum Wage Leads 89% of Fast-Food Restaurants to Reduce Hours” HERE)
