Australian Politician Declares Himself a Woman. the Reason Will Make Pro-Lifers Will Cheer

Australian politician Barry O’Sullivan declared in Parliament Monday that [he] identifies as a woman so that leftist politicians will no longer be able to attack [him] for [his] pro-life views.

O’Sullivan’s decision to switch genders was prompted after a left-wing colleague denounced her during debate over a motion calling for pro-abortion activists to be banned from disrupting the annual “Day of the Unborn Child” observance on March 25, Alice Workman reports for BuzzFeed News.

“Senator O’Sullivan needs to get his hands and his rosaries off my ovaries and those of the 10,000 Queensland women who have an abortion each year, 10,000 women who have the right to make a decision about their own bodies without the opinion of [S]enator O’Sullivan getting in their way,” said Sen. Larissa Waters of the Australian Greens political party during debate on the motion.

O’Sullivan said that conservative politicians can’t use the word “abortion” without being “attacked” by the Left.

We can’t open our traps, you cannot say the word abortion without being attacked by this mob of almost — I’d say grubs if I didn’t think you were gonna make me withdraw it, Mr. Acting Deputy President, but it’s out there now,” O’Sullivan said.

“These people come and attack me for my religious basis the other day, using words like rosary beads, because I had the audacity to raise issues around late-term abortions, where babies that are only minutes away from getting a smack on the arse and a name are being aborted under the policies of the Australian Greens.”

“I will not stand silent; I will not stand mute while these people try to continue to marginalize policies and ideas that we want to discuss for this nation that I think are largely supported still by the majority of the nation,” she continued.

“I’m going to declare my gender today, as I can, to be a woman. And then you’ll no longer be able to attack me.”

O’Sullivan has, of course, suffered intolerant and bigoted attacks for transitioning. Australian novelist Jane Caro is among those denying that O’Sullivan is a real woman.

But that’s not how this works on the Left, right? Trans women ARE women, and that’s not up for debate. O’Sullivan doesn’t dress like a woman, but insisting that she must dress a certain way to embrace womanhood is reinforcing negative gender stereotypes. Also, a woman can have a penis. So why does O’Sullivan’s lack of a “functioning uterus” make her any less qualified to talk about “women’s issues” like abortion? It doesn’t, under the gobbledygook nonsense “logic” of gender identity politics.

Any leftist attacking O’Sullivan’s transition is an intolerant bigot who ought to be marginalized and condemned. Those are the rules of the game, we’re told. (For more from the author of “Australian Politician Declares Himself a Woman. the Reason Will Make Pro-Lifers Will Cheer” please click HERE)

Mattis Gave a Pep Talk to Troops Guarding America’s Southern Border, and What He Said Will Give You Goosebumps

Secretary of Defense James Mattis Wednesday visited the troops deployed to the U.S.-Mexico border and gave them some inspiring words ahead of the arrival of a migrant caravan slowly making its way through Mexico toward the U.S.

The Department of Defense’s latest estimate suggests there will be more than 7,000 troops at various positions in Arizona, California and Texas, according to CNBC. Their responsibility will involve erecting barriers and helping the Department of Homeland Security and Customs and Border Protection (CBP) with other logistical tasks. . .

“In the Army, we don’t care if you’re male or female, we don’t care where you go to church or if you go to church,” he said. “We just care when there’s trouble out there, will you keep the faith, will you ride for the brand, and when trouble looms, do you go toward the trouble to help your buddies.”

“Loyalty only matters when there’s a hundred reasons not to be loyal,” Mattis told the troops. “When it’s raining and you’re cold. It’s when you’re in a position where people are showing a lack of respect for each other elsewhere and you and your team are holding strong.” . . .

The defense secretary announced after visiting with military personnel that he does not expect law enforcement to come in direct contact with any of the migrants, a fear that arose after President Donald Trump announced the military will treat rocks thrown by migrants at troops as firearms.

Avenatti Speaks After Arrest for Suspected Felony Domestic Violence

Michael Avenatti appeared to portray himself as a victim during a brief press conference on Wednesday after he was arrested for alleged felony domestic violence.

“I wish to thank the hard working men and woman of the LAPD for their professionalism, they were only doing their jobs in light of the completely bogus allegations against me,” Avenatti said. “I have never been physically abusive in my life nor was I last night. Any accusations to the contrary are fabricated and meant to do harm to my reputation. I look forward to being fully exonerated.”

Students Appear Hesitant to Donate to Ocasio-Cortez’s Apartment Search – This Is What Changed Their Minds

Congresswoman-elect Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez made headlines last week when she said that she couldn’t afford an apartment in Washington D.C. until she starts getting paid. Many students at American University appeared ready to help her out — that is, until they found out what her salary will be during her time in Congress. . .

Many AU students stated their willingness to help the Democratic-socialist find an apartment, but some walked their support back when they found out just how much she’ll make as a congresswoman. The incoming lawmaker has also reportedly drawn $6,200 in salary from her campaign since August.

Watch: DNC CEO Is Asked How Democrats Will Pay for Health Care. She Has No Idea.

Seema Nanda, CEO of the Democratic National Committee, was asked on Tuesday how the Democrats intended to pay for a multi-trillion dollar government-run single-payer health care system. She had no idea.

Nanda made the remarks while being interviewed by Yahoo Finance at its “All Markets Summit: America’s Financial Future” in Washington, D.C.

“There has been some analysis of, third-party analysis of a Medicare for all program, what it would be like, how much it might cost is a big issue,” the interviewer said. “It would be very expensive, so, if this is going to be a winning issue for Democrats in 2020, how do you answer the question of how are you going to pay for this? Because there have been studies, credible studies that say it would cost $3 trillion dollars a year, you would have to double everybody’s taxes or maybe triple everybody’s taxes. How do you answer the cost question?”

“I don’t think we’re there yet,” Nanda immediately admitted.

Guy Gets Banned From Disney – Here’s the Ridiculous Reason Why (It Has to Do With Trump)

A man just got banned from Disney World for displaying a “Trump 2020” sign on the ride Splash Mountain during the photo drop and for displaying a “Keep America Great Again” sign on Expedition Everest.

“A man who displayed signs supporting Donald Trump is permanently not permitted at all Walt Disney World properties for violating the rules,” according to The Hollywood Reporter. . .

The man, Don Cini, had his annual pass taken away from him previously for a similar stunt. Disney, however, had a change of heart and granted him his pass back. They took it away once again for the same reason. Don Cini, however, maintains that he displayed the signs on the ride to “test them.”

“They never mentioned the fact that there was some kind of safety issue on the ride. That I was holding up a sign and I shouldn’t be doing that,” Cini told WFTV. “And I wanted to actually abide by their rules, and not hold up a flag to incite a crowd, but I kind of wanted to test them. I just really wanted to find out whether or not it had to do with unfurling a flag, or what was written on the flag.” . . .

While people might be quick to blast Disney for picking on a Trump supporter, a spokesman for the park said the ban comes from Cini “not following park rules.” To the park’s credit, it did not cave into SJW pressure when leftists demanded that President Trump not be included in the “Hall of Presidents” exhibit. In fact, the recently-elected president got his own animatronic and provided his own voice for the recorded speech.

Watch: Dan Crenshaw Graciously Accepts SNL Apology, Then Roasts Him Before Making a Call for Unity

Newly elected Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX) appeared on NBC’s “Saturday Night Live” and graciously accepted an apology from Pete Davidson, whose classless mocking of Crenshaw last week drew national outrage.

“You may be surprised to hear that he’s a congressional candidate from Texas and not a hitman in a porno movie,” Davidson said last week, which exploded on social media. “I’m sorry. I know he lost his eye in war or whatever.”

On Saturday, Crenshaw made a surprise appearance on SNL where he accepted an apology from Davidson, roasted him, and then made a final call for unity.

“In what I’m sure was a huge shock for people who know me, I made a poor choice last week,” Davidson said before Crenshaw appeared on set. “I made a joke about Lieutenant Commander Dan Crenshaw, and on behalf of the show and myself, I apologize.”

“I mean this from the bottom of my heart. It was a poor choice of words. The man is a war hero and he deserves all of the respect in the world,” Davidson continued. “And if any good came of this, maybe it was that for one day the left and the right finally came together to agree on something: that I’m a dick.”

Watch: Trump Rips Apart Reporters One by One, Including Absent Jim Acosta

On Friday morning, President Donald Trump unloaded on reporters for asking “stupid questions,” their lack of intelligence, and their overall “nasty” behavior.

During a media gaggle outside the White House, CNN reporter Abby Phillip asked the president if he wants Matthew Whitaker, named acting attorney general, to “rein in” Special Counsel Robert Mueller, who’s overseeing the investigation into so-called “Russian collusion.”

Trump was, uh, direct. “What a stupid question that is. What a stupid question,” he emphasized. “But I watch you a lot; you ask a lot of stupid questions.” . . .

“I think Jim Acosta is a very unprofessional man. He does this with everybody. He gets paid to do that. He gets paid to burst in. He’s a very unprofessional guy. Whether it was me or [former President] Ronald Reagan or anybody else, he would have done the same thing,” slammed Trump.

Acosta was not present at the gaggle, though. On Wednesday, the Trump administration suspended Acosta’s press credentials after he refused to give up the mic, physically pushing off a young female aide who, doing her job, was trying to grab the mic from him after he asked three questions.

Leftists Cringe When Confronted With the Truth

Andrew Klavan and Michael Knowles were confronted by protestors when speaking at Loyola Marymount University, so they did what any self-respecting conservative American would do, dished out some truth to the students.

Andrew Klavan said, “Being in a single-parent family is one of the greatest indications of risk for suicide, for crime, for drug use, for everything that there is. When you go into a prison, and I’ve visited a lot of prisons, you can walk down the cell – single family, single mother family, single mother fatherless family, the left created that situation by giving people money to have kids out of wedlock, and they were told it would happen and it did happen. The illegitimate birth rate among African Americans is worse today than it was when Democrats were selling them down the river as slaves, it’s worse now!”

He continued, “It’s because that carries a social currency, and this is true for a multitude of races, this is true with intersectional sexual and gender theories, this is true across a wide variety of the people that the left has divided and pitted against one another in this country for an extraordinarily long time, and ramped up in recent history.”
