Seattle Children’s Hospital Leaves Texas After Investigation Over Gender Transition Medication for Minors: AG

/0 Comments/in , /by

Seattle Children’s Hospital has agreed to stop providing care in Texas after backlash for allegedly helping minors in the Lone Star state receive gender transition medication, The Post has exclusively learned.

The hospital is suspected of providing support for gender transitions to Texas-based patients from its Seattle facility, which writes prescriptions for sex change hormones to their pharmacies in the Lone Star state, according to Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton.

Paxton says this would violate state law, which prohibits drug and surgical sex changes for kids. However, when his office made enquiries they were rebuffed.

“Seattle Children’s Hospital appeared to break Texas law and initially tried to evade accountability when investigated,” Paxton said in a statement shared with The Post. . .

Seattle Children’s subsequently sued Texas in December arguing the state’s request should either be invalidated or limited, claiming “the Demands represent an unconstitutional attempt to investigate potential interstate commerce and travel for Texas residents to another state.” (Read more from “Seattle Children’s Hospital Leaves Texas After Investigation Over Gender Transition Medication for Minors: AG” HERE)

Judge Declares Mistrial in Case of Arizona Rancher Charged With Murder of Mexican National on Border Property

/0 Comments/in , /by

A jury was unable to reach a verdict in the case of Arizona rancher George Alan Kelly, who was accused of second-degree murder in connection to the death of a Mexican national found fatally shot on his borderland ranch in January 2023.

The jury began deliberating April 18. After days of being unable to reach a verdict, the judge overseeing the trial declared a mistrial on Monday.

The case centered around the death of Mexican national Gabriel Cuen-Buitimea, who was found shot to death on Kelly’s 170-acre cattle ranch near Keno Springs outside Nogales, Arizona, on Jan. 30, 2023.

Kelly’s defense has countered the prosecution’s argument that Cuen-Buitimea was an unarmed migrant and has suggested cartel influence mired the death investigation.

“Long story short, this is simply not somebody who’s looking for the American dream. There’s no evidence that this person is here for those kinds of benign purposes,” Kelly’s defense attorney, Brenna Larkin, said during her closing argument on Thursday. “And we bring that up, not, you know, to be judgmental about Gabriel or to not have compassion for him. But when people are involved in a criminal lifestyle, it’s dangerous. It’s more inherently dangerous than simply being a migrant who’s coming here. So it’s relevant for that reason.” (Read more from “Judge Declares Mistrial in Case of Arizona Rancher Charged With Murder of Mexican National on Border Property” HERE)

An Overlooked Trump Cabinet Pick Could Upend the Left’s Grip on Power

/0 Comments/in , , /by

President Joe Biden summed up his education vision last year with a few words.

“There is no such thing as someone else’s child. No such thing as someone else’s child. Our nation’s children are all our children,” Biden said while honoring the 2023 teacher of the year.

Biden’s remarks triggered a firestorm among Republicans, education activists and parents alike.

Now those Biden critics are strategizing for a potential second Trump administration. Priorities have been outlined, shortlists have been drawn. Some are preparing to join the administration.

But it’ll be up to Trump to make his pick for the unheralded but critical cabinet spot of education secretary. (Read more from “An Overlooked Trump Cabinet Pick Could Upend the Left’s Grip on Power” HERE)

U.S. Reportedly Prepping Massive Weapons Package to Fast-Track to Ukraine

/1 Comment/in , /by

The Pentagon is preparing a large aid package to quickly send to Ukraine as soon as President Joe Biden signs into law a long-awaited Ukraine aid bill passed over the weekend, Politico reported, citing two U.S. officials.

Department of Defense (DOD) planners have not finalized the contents of the package, but it would likely include armored Bradley infantry fighting vehicles, artillery and air defenses Ukraine needs badly, Politico reported, citing the two sources speaking on condition of anonymity ahead of the formal announcement. The upcoming tranche of aid will be significantly larger than the Pentagon’s usual $300 million package, one of the officials said, along with a third U.S. official with knowledge of the discussions.

The Pentagon intends to deliver a “big package to help meet Ukraine’s battlefield needs,” one of the officials told Politico.

U.S. officials believe Ukraine’s hope of a military victory against Russia is dwindling, and Kyiv could face defeat by the end of the year if its backers do not surge much-needed equipment, Politico reported.

Pentagon planners may include older Humvees and M113 armored personnel carriers in the package, according to Politico. (Read more from “U.S. Reportedly Prepping Massive Weapons Package to Fast-Track to Ukraine” HERE)

Alina Habba: Criminal and Civil Courts Being Used Against Trump Because ‘They Cannot Beat Him in the Polls’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Alina Habba, lawyer and spokesperson for former President Donald Trump, accused Democrats of going after the Republican presidential nominee in court because they cannot beat him in the polls.

“The fact that we have two courts, not one — criminal and civil — being used against one man because they cannot beat him in the polls is a disgrace to the American judicial system,” she said in remarks at the New York State Supreme Court Building in Manhattan after opening arguments in the hush money case.

“You should not have two teams of lawyers here today. You should not even be here today, because he did nothing wrong. It is the epitome of a witch hunt,” she told reporters.

Habba said she had just come from a different court where Trump has been accused of inflating the value of his assets to receive favorable loans he has since paid back. He was at first ordered to post a $454 million bond before he could appeal, but an appellate court ruled he would only have to post $175 million. New York Judge Arthur Engoron on Monday accepted that bond, which will prevent Democrat New York Attorney General Letitia James from seizing his assets as he appeals the case.

Habba accused Engoron of not understanding “basic principles of financing” and said he and James “had no idea what they were talking about.” (Read more from “Alina Habba: Criminal and Civil Courts Being Used Against Trump Because ‘They Cannot Beat Him in the Polls’” HERE)

Hillary: Second Trump Term ‘Will Be Like Having a Dictator’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Former President Donald Trump’s so-called “threats” should “scare every American,” twice-failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton said, asserting that a second Trump term would be like “having a dictator” in the Oval Office.

“And the kind of threats that you hear coming out of Donald Trump should scare every American,” Clinton, who lost to Trump in a surprise defeat in 2016, said during a Friday appearance on Democracy Docket’s Defending Democracy podcast, stating that President Biden is “modeling responsible leadership” by “not engaging in vitriolic attacks on people, in rallies and online, not threatening to execute people and putting them in jail.”

Clinton did not address several instances of Biden’s divisions throughout his presidency, such as his constant attacks on “MAGA Americans,” demonizing them, accusing them of threatening democracy itself, and claiming they do not believe in the rule of law nor respect the U.S. Constitution. She also did not mention the war Biden waged on unvaccinated Americans during his first two years in office, essentially calling them selfish, irresponsible, and unpatriotic.

Nevertheless, in Clinton’s mind Trump is an “authoritarian.”

“Because with an authoritarian, you never know what side of the bed they’ll wake up on, you never know who they’re going to be upset with today, you never know if somebody basically bribes them by giving business to a relative or some other gift, that they will try to destroy one business to advantage another,” she said, adding that they, too, do not “believe in the rule of law” — the same accusation Biden made toward MAGA Americans.

DEI Official at UCLA School of Medicine Massively Plagiarized Her Dissertation on DEI

/0 Comments/in , /by

Recent headlines about UCLA School of Medicine suggest that the institution has lost its focus. Instead of brushing up on organic chemistry, its students were subjected to lessons on “Indigenous womxn” and “two-spirits.” Future doctors had to take a class on “structural racism” and were led in a “Free Palestine” chant by a Hamas-praising guest speaker. The school made plans to segregate students by race for courses on left-wing ideology, and two of its psychiatry residents championed “revolutionary suicide.”

Why has the school charted this course? One reason is its commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion ideology. UCLA has a DEI program called “Cultural North Star,” and at the medical school, it is led by Natalie J. Perry. Her official biography says her job is to “embed our aspirational Cultural North Stars [sic] value [sic] in our organizational DNA.” UCLA honored Perry last month for teaching students to “do what’s right,” saying her “empathy and radical listening” are to thank for her “success as an educator and a leader.”

According to a Daily Wire and City Journal investigation, however, Perry’s academic career is based on fraud. Perry has published a single paper, a 2014 Ph.D. dissertation at the University of Virginia about how colleges should create larger DEI programs. An analysis of the paper found it ridden with the worst sort of plagiarism, reproducing large swaths of text directly from several other authors, without citations. The scale of the plagiarism suggests that Perry lacks both ethics and competence and raises questions about academic programs that push DEI.

Perry’s dissertation lifted passages from ten other papers. In key portions of her text, she copied almost every paragraph from other sources without attribution. She fails even to mention at least four of the ten plagiarized papers anywhere in her dissertation.

Dems’ Latest: They Want Trump Jailed and Murdered, and Have a Plan to Make Both Happen…

/0 Comments/in , /by

By Revolver News. In case you were wondering, yes, the Dems not only want President Trump in prison—they want him out of the picture entirely, as in ending his life. It sounds diabolical, right? Well, it is. It’s as anti-American, immoral, and evil as it gets. Yet, it’s our current political reality as the party known for its gender confusion and judicial lawfare gears up to make these dark wishes a reality. Firstly, they’ve put Trump through a series of sham trials, amounting to some of the most egregious forms of election interference we’ve seen since the advent of unverified mail-in ballots.

These aren’t just trials; they’re communist-style show trials. And now, Democrats are making an even more sinister move, in an obvious attempt to snuff out Trump’s life.

Rep. Bennie Thompson, who you know was the former chair of the bogus Jan. 6 committee, has just introduced legislation that would terminate Secret Service protection for anyone sentenced to a year or more in jail. This is not just a policy proposal; it’s a clear political hit aimed directly at Trump, exposing him to an unprecedented risk of assassination. The implications of this bill are bone-chilling, and the murderous intent behind it is crystal clear. . .

Keep in mind that he doesn’t even need to be sentenced for this to take place in Dem’s devious world, only convicted, and how easy will that be in the kangaroo courts that have been strategically set up in liberal-run hellholes like Manhattan and the DC Swamp?

Revolver has been all over this “activist juror” issue involving the politicized “hush money” trial in New York City. The Dems have rigged the game to the point where Trump can’t possibly get a fair trail in that progressive cesspool. And if he does happen to find a potential juror who could help save him from this unjust nightmare, they pull the “conservative misguided virtue card” and ruin everything.

Former January 6 Panel Chair Unveils Bill That Could Strip Trump of Secret Service Protection

By Daily Wire. Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-MS), the Democrat who led the now-defunct January 6 Committee, announced legislation last week that could disqualify former President Donald Trump from keeping Secret Service protection.

The bill, which comes as Trump faces multiple criminal cases as he runs for another term in the White House, does not mention the former president by name. However, Thompson, who is the top-ranking member of the Homeland Security Committee, released a “fact sheet” that says Trump would be affected if the proposal passes and he is convicted of a felony.

“Unfortunately, current law doesn’t anticipate how Secret Service protection would impact the felony prison sentence of a protectee — even a former President. It is regrettable that it has come to this, but this previously unthought-of scenario could become our reality,” Thompson said.

“Therefore, it is necessary for us to be prepared and update the law so the American people can be assured that protective status does not translate into special treatment — and that those who are sentenced to prison will indeed serve the time required of them,” he added.

Our Galaxy’s Largest Black Hole Has Been Discovered Close to Earth: Report

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Debrief recently reported that scientists from the European Space Agency’s Gaia mission have located a black hole with a mass of 33 solar masses, which makes it the largest black hole of stellar origin ever discovered in the Milky Way galaxy.

The discovery, which was found after Gaia’s fourth data release, could shed new light on the formation and prevalence of black holes throughout the known universe.

The black hole, which has been named Gaia BH3, is part of a binary system located around 590 parsecs from Earth. The discovery is significant because of the black hole’s mass and because it challenges current models of stellar evolution and the formation of black holes, according to the report.

Black holes are mysterious regions in space where the gravitational pull is so strong that not even light can escape it. While they are not visible to the naked eye, they are usually identified by the high-energy radiation emitted when they interact with other stars or gas clouds.

However, the Debrief noted that Gaia BH3 does not interact with its companion star, which makes it a “dormant” black hole. It is only detectable through the gravitational influence it has on its companion. (Read more from “Our Galaxy’s Largest Black Hole Has Been Discovered Close to Earth: Report” HERE)

Scott Adams Explains in Layman Terms How the CIA ‘Captures’ Our Lawmakers Right Under Our Noses…

/0 Comments/in , , /by

What the heck happened to Speaker Mike Johnson? When he first emerged as the speaker after McCarthy was ousted, he was hailed as a “MAGA” hero. Many thought we finally had someone at the helm who truly had our best interests at heart. Boy, were we wrong.

In a shockingly short period of time, Speaker Johnson went from a MAGA hopeful to a Deep State stooge. This drastic change has many people asking: Was he always a snake in the grass, or did they manage to blackmail him into becoming their dutiful little puppet? Well, it’s likely a very complex issue with many layers, but one thing seems clear: Speaker Johnson likely fell victim to a very coordinated CIA plot. This strategy is often used against our government officials to ensure they toe the line with the uni-party regime. The more we uncover and discuss, the more we realize just how deep these tactics go into manipulating our leaders. The good news is that this topic is gaining traction, with influential voices like conservative cartoonist legend Scott Adams chiming in. We appreciate how Scott Adams has brilliantly managed to break down what the CIA is doing into simple layman’s terms. It’s refreshing and enlightening to have such complex issues made accessible and understandable for everyone quickly. Scott took to X and, in just about five sentences, he summed up decades of CIA covert operations against our lawmakers and the American people.

Scott Adams:

If I correctly understand our system of government, when a president or leader in the Congress gets into office, someone in the CIA pulls them aside for “the talk” and completely changes their priorities.

The public is then told the leaders now have secret knowledge the public can never know.

But the leader has no way of knowing the “secret” information is true and in context.

That puts the secret-keepers in firm control of the government’s big decisions. If the secret-keepers agree with a government policy, they stay out of it. If they disagree with a policy, they say the UFOs will attack — or some other unverifiable thing — and by the way, we have recordings of every phone call you ever made, and scare the leaders into compliance.

Right in front of us. None of this is secret.
