Woke vs. Woke: 3K+ Starbucks Workers to Strike Over Pride Backlash

/0 Comments/in , /by

Employees at approximately 150 Starbucks stores are reportedly gathering to strike Friday regarding an argument over LGBTQQIAAP2s+ Pride decorations.

The workers are from stores across the nation, and the Starbucks Workers United Union claims the company restricted Pride decorations in some of its stores, CNN reported Friday.

However, Starbucks has since denied the claim and said there has been no change to its policies regarding the decorations, per CNBC:

The company stated, “Workers United continues to spread false information about our benefits, policies and negotiation efforts, a tactic used to seemingly divide our partners and deflect from their failure to respond to bargaining sessions for more than 200 stores.” (Read more from “Woke vs. Woke: 3K+ Starbucks Workers to Strike Over Pride Backlash” HERE)

‘Irreversible Infertility’ Listed as Risk of Hormone Therapy on Trans Clinic Waiver

/0 Comments/in , /by

Advocates of so-called “gender affirming care” for children have sought to lower the minimum age for cross-sex hormone therapy, but waivers at a top Virginia clinic require parents to acknowledge a frightening list of potential permanent side effects.

The waivers from the University of Virginia (UVA) Medical Center, obtained exclusively by The Daily Wire, list the potentially harmful side effects of testosterone treatment and puberty blocker usage. The UVA Children’s Hospital Transgender Youth Health clinic offers “transgender youth health services for ages 11 to 25.”

“Testosterone therapy may cause transient infertility due to loss of ovulation or irreversible infertility due to ovarian tissue damage,” one warning from a document titled “Consent For Testosterone Therapy” reads. It goes on to suggest “banking eggs.”

The form also states “I authorize Dr. __________, based upon my child’s treatment goals, to treat me/my child with testosterone for the purpose of gender transition.”

The list of side effects points out that “this is an ‘off-label’ use of this medication – it has not been approved by the Food and Drug Administration.” Other potential side effects include high cholesterol, sleep apnea, and “increased risk of … yeast infections.” (Read more from “‘Irreversible Infertility’ Listed as Risk of Hormone Therapy on Trans Clinic Waiver” HERE)

Whistleblower: DOJ Twice Prevented U.S. Attorney From Charging Hunter Biden for Greater Crimes; Joe Biden, Merrick Garland Implicated in IRS Whistleblower Testimony

/0 Comments/in , /by

By Breitbart. House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Jason Smith (R-MO) told reporters Thursday that the Justice Department twice prevented United States Attorney David Weiss from bringing stronger charges against Hunter Biden.

Upon the committee’s vote to unseal IRS whistleblower evidence of alleged Justice Department political interference in the Hunter Biden tax probe, Smith said IRS whistleblowers allege that President Joe Biden’s DOJ twice prevented charges against Hunter Biden in Washington, DC, and California in 2022.

Attorney General Merrick Garland told Congress in March that he would have to personally authorize any potential charges levied against Hunter Biden by Weiss. Yet Garland also said Wednesday he gave Weiss “full authority to decide the matter as he decided was appropriate.”

On Tuesday, Hunter Biden agreed to plead guilty to only two federal tax violation charges and one charge of violation of gun laws.

“Testimony shows that U.S. Attorney of Delaware David Weiss tried to bring charges in the District of Columbia around March of 2022 and was denied. Weiss sought Special Counsel status from the DOJ in the spring of 2022 and was denied,” Smith told reporters. “And Weiss once again sought to bring charges in the Central District of California in the fall of 2022 and had that request denied in January of 2023.” (Read more from “Whistleblower: DOJ Twice Prevented U.S. Attorney From Charging Hunter Biden for Greater Crimes” HERE)

Joe Biden, Merrick Garland Implicated in IRS Whistleblower Testimony

By Breitbart. President Joe Biden and Attorney General Merrick Garland may face tough questions after Thursday’s release of the testimony of an IRS whistleblower, which was released by the U.S. House Ways and Means Committee.

Republicans released transcripts of two whistleblowers, one of whom said he had seen evidence that Joe Biden was present when his son, Hunter, attempted to pressure a Chinese investor to send them millions of dollars. The whistleblower, IRS Criminal Supervisory Special Agent Gary A. Shapley Jr., also said that the Department of Justice had interfered in the effort to investigate Hunter Biden for tax crimes — contrary to Garland’s claims. . .

Here are five key questions:

1. Was Joe Biden in the room when Hunter Biden pressured a Chinese investor to send money? Biden has said, numerous times, that he has never discussed his family’s business interests. But Shapley said:

[W]e obtained a July 30th, 2017, WhatsApp message from Hunter Biden to Henry Zhao, where Hunter Biden wrote: “I am sitting here with my father and we would like to understand why the commitment made has not been fulfilled. Tell the director that I would like to resolve this now before it gets out of hand, and now means tonight. And, Z, if I get a call or text from anyone involved in this other than you, Zhang, or the chairman, I will make certain that between the man sitting next to me and every person he knows and my ability to forever hold a grudge that you will regret not following my direction. I am sitting here waiting for the call with my father.”

House Sends Biden Impeachment Articles to Committees

/0 Comments/in , /by

The GOP-led House voted on Thursday to send articles of impeachment against President Joe Biden to a pair of committees.

Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) brought forth articles of impeachment, which accuse Biden of “high crimes and misdemeanors” over his administration’s handling of the U.S.-Mexico border, with a privileged resolution that would force a vote on the House floor, according to Boebert.

Some Republicans voiced opposition to a vote on impeachment in a way that bypassed committees, but House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) came to an agreement with Boebert that would allow the matter to move forward, according to Fox News.

That plan, in which the House Rules Committee referred the resolution to the House Homeland Security and House Judiciary Committees, passed by a 219-208 vote along party lines on Thursday.

“Today, I initiated historic impeachment proceedings against Joe Biden for his unconstitutional dereliction of duty at the southern border,” Boebert said in a tweet. “For the first time in 24 years, House Republicans united to protect the separation of powers and start a formal impeachment inquiry.” (Read more from “House Sends Biden Impeachment Articles to Committees” HERE)

Americans Urged to Fight Biden’s Plan to Submit to WHO Child Sex Ideology

/0 Comments/in , /by

A top-flight legal team that has, for years, actively worked to protect religious rights and fight the leftism of the LGBT ideologies now is urging Americans to express their opposition to a move by Joe Biden to bring America under the authority of the World Health Organization.

At issue is the proposal from the WHO to impose who International Health Regulations worldwide.

It is Liberty Counsel, long a warrior in the battle to protect religious rights and limit the impact of harmful schemes like Biden’s all-out promotion of the body-mutilation surgeries involved in the transgender agenda, that is asking Americans to sound off – now.

Specifically, the proposed regulations would set “Standards for Sexuality Education in Europe” and more.

“We cannot allow this evil to further infect the United States. But if Joe Biden — the man who can’t seem to stop sniffing and touching girls and women unfortunate enough to be in his close proximity — signs America on to the WHO’s new IHR and treaty, our government will be forced to promote pedophilia, and our schools will be forced to teach this evil as normal behavior,” the organization warned.

Military Generation Z Recruiting Woes Worsened by TikTok Ban

/0 Comments/in , /by

The U.S. military is seeking to attract the youngest generation to enlist, but technology troubles have hampered the Department of Defense’s ability to recruit effectively.

A ban on TikTok from government and military devices has limited the department’s utilization of the growing platform popularized by Generation Z, with an estimated 64 million users between the ages of 16-34 in the United States. And lagging pay in the military can’t keep pace with the prospect of technology sector opportunities that younger people seek out.

Experts and recruiters note that Gen Z, people born between the late 1990s and the early 2010s, are much different from previous generations, including their lack of familiarity with the military, growing up in the social media era, and distinct life goals.

“Members of Gen Z are authenticity seekers,” Lt. Cmdr. Richard Parker from Navy Recruiting Command told the Washington Examiner. “They crave authentic travel and adventure. Many of our recruiting efforts focus on connecting with potential future sailors through memorable experiences, telling stories of the Navy adventure and pride in service. We also face the challenge of top talent in a strong economy.”

“We are competing not only against other services that offer unique opportunities but also with the private sector,” he added. “In addressing this challenge we offer strong incentives such as enlistment bonuses, free healthcare, support for college education and specialized training in more than 150 career fields that will help them be competitive in the job market after their Navy service.” (Read more from “Military Generation Z Recruiting Woes Worsened by TikTok Ban” HERE)

‘I Never Trusted Him’: Trump Attacks Christie for ‘Hatred’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Former President Donald Trump bashed fellow 2024 Republican presidential candidate Chris Christie as someone with “a lot of hatred.”

Trump made the comments about Christie while also bashing him as someone he “never trusted” on America First with Sebastian Gorka on Thursday.

“He made some recommendations that weren’t exactly great recommendations. I listened to Chris. I got along with him. He endorsed me like crazy,” Trump said.

Trump then discussed Christie’s 2016 presidential campaign and mentioned how Christie endorsed Trump in the 2016 GOP primary after the then-New Jersey governor dropped out.

“But I didn’t trust Chris, I never trusted him, I could never really feel like I could trust him, so I didn’t use him, so he’s got a lot of hatred. I didn’t put him in the administration — I didn’t want to, so he’s got a lot of hatred,” Trump said. (Read more from “‘I Never Trusted Him’: Trump Attacks Christie for ‘Hatred'” HERE)

RFK Jr. Says Russia ‘Acting in Good Faith’ in Ukraine Invasion, U.S. in Part to Blame for War

/0 Comments/in , /by

Democratic presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. suggested Wednesday that Russia has been “acting in good faith” in various efforts to end the war in Ukraine and placed blame on the U.S. for the 16-monthlong conflict.

Kennedy said in an interview on SiriusXM’s “The Briefing with Steve Scully” that Russian President Vladimir Putin has “repeatedly said yes” to negotiations.

“In fact, he negotiated, two times he agreed to agreements,” Kennedy said. “He agreed to the Minsk Accord, and then he agreed in 2022 to an agreement that would’ve left Ukraine completely intact.” . . .

“It was us who forced [Ukrainian President Volodymyr] Zelensky to sabotage that agreement. It was already signed,” Kennedy claimed. “So, you know, the Russians were acting in good faith. … So, no, I think we’re the ones who have not been acting in good faith.”

Kennedy has previously criticized America’s involvement in the war in Ukraine, suggesting at an event in New Hampshire on Tuesday that the conflict is the “creation of a relentless mentality of foreign domination” on the part of the U.S. (Read more from “RFK Jr. Says Russia ‘Acting in Good Faith’ in Ukraine Invasion, U.S. in Part to Blame for War” HERE)

Hunter Biden Kicked Out of $10K Sex Club for ‘Grabbing Women’s A**es,’ Acting Like a ‘Spoiled Child’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Hunter Biden got kicked out of a private sex club for “grabbing women’s asses” and acting “like a spoiled child,” the founder exclusively told The Post.

The president’s troubled son is “a really bad guy — not a good person. He’s just not,” said Damon Lawner, who founded the notorious SNCTM club, where membership ran as high as $75,000 a year. And Hunter’s $10,000 payment led to Lawner receiving an IRS subpoena.

Lawner claimed that the payment was made through a mystery woman in 2018 and that he was later informed of a probe by the IRS criminal division who “asked me about book-keeping and records.”

Lawner said he decided to disclose Biden’s sex club membership after Biden was given a virtual slap on the wrist on Tuesday in an income tax and a gun case after a five-year federal investigation.

The whopping fee, Lawner said, was made through an LLC that hid Hunter’s name and paid by a mystery woman who accompanied the president’s son — “high as a kite and zonked out” — to the club.

/0 Comments/in , /by

Photographs from Hunter Biden’s laptop appear to place him at his father’s home in Wilmington, Delaware, on the same day that he used his dad’s name to threaten a Chinese business partner.

The Free Beacon’s Chuck Ross and Andrew Kerr reported that four photos from the laptop show Hunter Biden in his dad’s Corvette on the same day that he sent a WhatsApp to Henry Zhao on July 30, 2017.

According to the transcript provided by the House Ways and Means Committee, Hunter Biden wrote:

I am sitting here with my father and we would like to understand why the commitment made has not been fulfilled. Tell the director that I would like to resolve this now before it gets out of hand, and now means tonight. And, Z, if I get a call or text from anyone involved in this other than you, Zhang, or the chairman, I will make certain that between the man sitting next to me and every person he knows and my ability to forever hold a grudge that you will regret not following my direction.
