Taxpayer-Funded LGBTQ Center Teaches Kids as Young as 11 ‘Fundamentals of Drag’

/0 Comments/in , /by

An LBGTQ center in Ohio partially funded by county taxpayers is holding a monthly session teaching children as young as 11 the “fundamentals of drag.”

The Colors+ Youth Center, roughly 15 miles from Cleveland, welcomes kids from ages 4 to 17, and states that it is “run by two licensed professional mental health counselors.”

“In collaboration with Drag Queen Story Hour Cleveland, we offer monthly drag tutorials on the 2nd Wednesday of every month from 6-7:30pm led by a local drag performer who teaches the fundamentals of drag (makeup, costume design, and performance),” the Colors+ website proclaims. “Youth are able to creatively express themselves in a safe, affirming, and age appropriate way. Funded by Cuyahoga Arts and Culture.”

The county funding comes from Cuyahoga Arts & Culture, which boasts that it is “one of the largest local public funders for arts and culture in the nation, helping hundreds of organizations in Cuyahoga County connect millions of people to cultural experiences each year,” adding, “Cuyahoga Arts & Culture is a strong steward of the public’s money, investing nearly $12 million annually in organizations that bring arts and culture to life in our communities. Each year we support tens of thousands of arts and culture programs and events that enhance the lives of Cuyahoga County residents.”

In July, the Colors+ Youth Center celebrated the election of one of its board members as President of the Ohio Association for Counselor Education and Supervision (OACES). (Read more from “Taxpayer-Funded LGBTQ Center Teaches Kids as Young as 11 ‘Fundamentals of Drag’” HERE)

DOJ Indictment of Trump Is a Declaration of War Against American Voters

/0 Comments/in , /by

On Tuesday, President Joe Biden’s Justice Department took the unprecedented step of indicting former President Donald Trump — Biden’s chief rival in the upcoming 2024 election — for repeatedly expressing his opinion that the last election was stolen, rigged, and unfair.

It’s an opinion millions of Americans share, and to which they are unquestionably entitled thanks to the First Amendment. That includes Trump, who has said repeatedly (and recently) that the 2020 election was stolen. He’ll probably keep saying it until his dying day, and he has every right to do so.

The idea that our Justice Department can indict someone, especially the sitting president’s main political rival, over speech that’s protected by the First Amendment is simply insane. It puts us firmly into banana republic territory, where tinpot dictators jail their political opponents ahead of election day to ensure their “reelection.”

Simply put, this indictment is nothing more than a declaration of war against American voters and their constitutional right to free speech. As Jonathan Turley noted on Twitter, “If you take a red pen to all of the material presumptively protected by the First Amendment, you can reduce much of the indictment to haiku.”

Consider what’s alleged, and what isn’t, by DOJ Special Counsel Jack Smith (who, let’s not forget, was once rebuked by a unanimous Supreme Court after he tried to put a GOP governor in prison during the Obama administration). The charges against Trump do not include incitement to violence on Jan. 6, 2021. You might be surprised to hear that after Smith’s hyperbolic press conference Tuesday, in which he went on and on about the Jan. 6 Capitol riot and how horrible it was.

Jan. 6 Police Officer Shocks CNN Host When He Compares Trump to Osama Bin Laden: ‘Donald Trump Is a Terrorist’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Former police officer Michael Fanone celebrated the newest indictment against former President Donald Trump by comparing the event to the U.S. military killing Osama bin Laden. . .

Fanone — a former Washington, D.C., police officer who was injured in the Jan. 6 riots at the U.S. Capitol and who now works as a CNN analyst — expressed joy that Trump was indicted for alleged conspiracies related to the 2020 presidential election.

The comment appeared to catch CNN host Laura Coates off guard.

“These two seem comparable to you?” she pushed back. . .

“I believe they’re comparable,” he said. “Osama bin Laden was a terrorist who committed a horrific act against American people and against our republic. And I believe that Donald Trump is a terrorist who committed horrific acts against the American people.” (Read more from “Jan. 6 Police Officer Shocks CNN Host When He Compares Trump to Osama Bin Laden: ‘Donald Trump Is a Terrorist’ HERE)

New Cancer Hope as a Pill ‘Annihilates All Solid Tumors’ — Thanks to This Little Girl

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Cancer has a powerful new enemy — and it is fueled by a 9-year-old girl with an unforgettable smile.

Researchers have developed a drug containing a molecule called AOH1996 that “appears to annihilate all solid tumors” in preclinical research — while leaving healthy cells unharmed.

The drug AOH1996 is named after Anna Olivia Healey, a cancer patient from Indiana who was born in 1996.

“I knew I wanted to do something special for that little girl,” Linda Malkas of City of Hope in Duarte, California, a leading cancer research center, said in a statement received by The Post.

“She died when she was only 9 years old from neuroblastoma, a children’s cancer that affects only 600 kids in America each year.” (Read more from “New Cancer Hope as a Pill ‘Annihilates All Solid Tumors’ — Thanks to This Little Girl” HERE)

2024 Hopeful Doesn’t Believe 9/11 Panel Told Truth of Attack

/0 Comments/in , , /by

2024 presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy is “skeptical” about whether the 9/11 Commission told the truth about the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, saying he believes the public can handle the truth.

Ramaswamy cast doubt on the commission’s reports in an interview with Blaze TV’s host Alex Stein on Tuesday night. Stein asked him whether he believes 9/11 was an “inside job” or “exactly like the government tells us.”

“I don’t believe the government has told us the truth,” Ramaswamy said. “I’m driven by evidence and data. What I’ve seen in the last several years is we have to be skeptical of what the government does tell us.”

“I haven’t seen evidence to the contrary, but do I believe everything the government told us about it? Absolutely not. Do I believe the 9/11 Commission? Absolutely not,” the Republican candidate continued. (Read more from “” HERE)

Court Invalidates COVID Lockdowns Due to Illegal Implementation

/0 Comments/in , /by

An Albertan court ruled on Tuesday that lockdown orders enacted in response to Covid were invalid.

The ruling in Ingram v. Alberta will likely force prosecutors to withdraw charges against individuals, churches, and other organizations in several other standing cases.

Justice Barbara Romaine ruled in favor of the applicants because the Chief Medical Officer of Health (CMOH) delegated her decisions to the cabinet, which she was not authorized to do under Canadian law. The CMOH herself testified at trial that she provided only advice and recommendations to politicians but did not make the decisions herself.

Justice Romaine did conclude that although they violated the rights in section 2 of the Canadian Charter, lockdowns would not have violated the Charter if they had been implemented legally.

“If I am incorrect with respect to whether [the orders were legal], these infringements were amply justified as reasonable limits in a free and democratic society pursuant to section 1 of the Charter,” Romaine wrote.

Biden Reportedly Wants to Meet Granddaughter He Previously Refused to Acknowledge Existed

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden reportedly wants to meet his granddaughter, four-year-old Navy Joan Roberts, who he refused to publicly acknowledge existed until last week, NBC News reported Wednesday.

Biden recognized his seventh grandchild – having previously insisted he only had six – for the first time in a statement Friday. Biden now reportedly wants to meet Navy in person in an effort to dissipate rumors that he was ignoring her existence, according to people who spoke to NBC News.

It is currently unclear when and where the visit will take place, NBC reported. It is also unclear whether Navy’s mother and father, Hunter Biden and Lunden Roberts, will be in attendance.

Hunter Biden has reportedly never met his daughter, who was born in 2018. Biden reportedly waited to acknowledge Navy until he got the go-ahead from Hunter Biden, according to NBC.

Trump Indicted by Special Counsel Jack Smith Over Bid to Overturn 2020 Election; Trump Lands Obama Judge Known for Harshest Jan. 6 Sentences

/0 Comments/in , /by

By New York Post. Former President Donald Trump was indicted Tuesday by special counsel Jack Smith, who charged the president with four counts in connection with his attempts to overturn the 2020 election.

According to Smith, the 77-year-old “pursued unlawful means of discounting legitimate votes and subverting the election results” in a desperate bid to stay in power after his defeat by Joe Biden.

Prosecutors charged that the 45th president’s incessant claims of election fraud costing him re-election “were false and [Trump] knew they were false.

“But the Defendant repeated and widely disseminated them anyway — to make his knowingly false claims appear legitimate, create an intense national atmosphere of mistrust and anger, and erode public faith in the administration of the election.” (Read more from “Trump Indicted by Special Counsel Jack Smith Over Bid to Overturn 2020 Election” HERE)

Donald Trump Indicted: Assigned Judge Tanya Chutkan Known for Longest Jan. 6 Sentences

By Washington Examiner. Former President Donald Trump will face a federal judge in his alleged election subversion case who has a noted history of giving some of the lengthiest sentences to defendants involved in the Jan. 6 Capitol riot.

The case will be overseen by Judge Tanya Chutkan, an appointee of former President Barack Obama who has presided over several cases involving the Jan. 6 Capitol riot and is known to hand down sentences longer than what was recommended by prosecutors who brought the charges.

Out of a series of 11 riot-related cases Chutkan presided over, she imposed tougher sentences than those sought by federal prosecutors in seven instances and matched Department of Justice requests four times. All defendants wound up behind bars, according to an Associated Press review of sentences handed out to rioters.

For example, during a sentencing hearing in October 2021 for Texas resident Matt Mazzocco, who pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge for unauthorized entry into the Capitol building, the judge described the recommended sentence as too lenient.

Federal Government Bans Americans From Buying Popular Household Item

/0 Comments/in , , /by

The federal government’s ban on incandescent light bulbs took effect on Tuesday, more than a decade and a half after such a rule was first proposed intending to promote energy efficiency.

A federal regulation to ban incandescent light bulbs was initially issued in 2007 following the enactment of the Energy Independence and Security Act during the Bush administration. Implementation of the ban was delayed from its initial date of 2012, then the rule was broadened during the Obama administration before it was reversed by the Trump administration.

The Biden administration in April 2022 moved ahead with a new rule from the Dept. of Energy (DOE) banning incandescent light bulbs starting on August 1, 2023. The rule requires that light bulbs must emit at least 45 lumens per watt (a lumen is a measure of brightness). It also bans the manufacture and sale of non-conforming bulbs – but not their use, so consumers may use such bulbs that they already possess.

The rule effectively bans most incandescent light bulbs because they typically produce about 15 lumens per watt according to Philips, a leading light bulb maker. However, the rule contains exceptions allowing incandescent bulbs to continue to be manufactured and sold if they’re used in things like household appliances or certain types of lamps, including those for bugs, plants, or marine signals, among others.

A regulatory enforcement memo from the DOE issued days after the rule was announced last year indicated that the agency will pursue civil penalties against manufacturers and private labelers that knowingly violate the ban, although it’s unclear from the document what those penalties may entail.

Hunter Biden Bragged to Devon Archer That Chinese Tycoon Loved His ‘Last Name’ and ‘Aryan Godlike Men’ He Showed Off

/0 Comments/in , /by

Hunter Biden told his longtime business partner Devon Archer in 2011 that a Chinese mogul who secured the duo a multimillion-dollar deal loved him for his “last name” and the troupe of “very handsome Aryan godlike men” he brought with him everywhere, emails from the first son’s abandoned laptop reveal.

“Your question- ‘why does Super Chair love me so much?’ is easily answered. It has nothing to do with me and everything to do with my last name,” the younger Biden wrote to Archer in a Sept. 22, 2011, missive about his relationship with Chinese businessman Che Feng.

In an aside, Hunter added, “(and I bring along very handsome Aryan godlike men wherever I go).”

Feng — who was referred to as “The Super Chairman” by both Hunter and Archer — helped Biden’s firm, Rosemont Seneca Partners, and James Bulger’s Thornton Group LLC partner with Jonathan Li’s Bohai Capital and lateral launch Bohai Harvest RST, the emails indicate.

On Monday, Archer told the House Oversight Committee that Joe Biden met with Li for coffee while vice president, and later wrote a college recommendation letter for his daughter.
