Judge Undermines Parental Rights, Blocking Access to Kids’ Medical Records

In a contentious legal battle, a Washington state judge has partially blocked key elements of the newly enacted “A Parents’ Bill of Rights” law. This Republican-backed initiative, spearheaded by state Rep. Jim Walsh, aims to reinforce the role of parents in their children’s education and well-being. Despite the legal setback, most of the law’s provisions remain intact, marking a crucial step in the fight for parental rights.

Initiative 2081, also known as “A Parents’ Bill of Rights,” was approved earlier this year by the Washington state legislature in decisive votes. The initiative declares 15 rights for parents and guardians of public school children, ensuring transparency and parental involvement in various aspects of their children’s lives, including educational materials, school records, and health services.

Rep. Walsh emphasized the importance of this initiative, stating, “Custodial parents and guardians cannot be kept in the dark about what their minor children are going through in their lives. Parents have to be told — whether it’s things happening at school or things happening in the healthcare or mental healthcare space connected with school, or really anything affecting a minor child.”

Despite the broad support for the initiative, its implementation faced immediate legal challenges from radical LGBT organizations, represented by activist firms QLaw, Legal Voice, and the ACLU of Washington. These groups argued that the law infringes on students’ rights to privacy and an inclusive educational environment, asserting that it could cause “irreparable harm” to queer and trans students.

Last week, King County Superior Court Judge Michael Scott, appointed by Democratic Governor Jay Inslee, granted a temporary block on parts of the law. Specifically, the judge halted the provisions requiring schools to grant parents access to all their children’s medical and mental health counseling records and the requirement for schools to promptly turn over these records.

While the judge’s ruling is a setback, the bulk of the Parents’ Bill of Rights remains in effect. Rep. Walsh expressed encouragement that the judge left most of the law intact, highlighting the ongoing struggle for parental rights in the face of opposition from progressive groups and certain state officials.

Democratic State Superintendent Chris Reykdal has also weighed in, instructing school districts not to implement parts of the law until further legal clarity is achieved.

Brian Heywood, a key supporter of Initiative 2081, criticized Reykdal’s approach, accusing him of undermining democracy. “WA state Superintendent of Schools believes he is above the law and that the state knows better than parents what is best for your children,” Heywood stated. He called for Reykdal’s removal from office.

It Could Soon Be Illegal for Teachers to Tell Parents About Kids’ Trans Confusion

Want to know what is happening with your child at school? If you live in California, don’t ask teachers. It could soon be against the law for them to tell you.

The California Senate just advanced a proposal that would make it illegal for school personnel to adopt a policy saying parents should be informed if their children say they are confused about their sex.

For decades, teachers have needed a parent’s permission to give students something as small as a cough drop. Under this proposal, if a minor child says she was born in the wrong body and wants to talk to a nurse to find out how to have her breasts removed, school policy could interfere.

School districts such as San Diego Unified have information on their website, including phone numbers and addresses, for the Planned Parenthood locations in the area. These abortion facilities offer what they wrongly call “gender-affirming care.” The facilities provide puberty blockers and wrong-sex hormones, often prescribed for off-label uses, that can have irreversible effects on a child’s body. The surgeries that sometimes follow will destroy a child’s sexual organs.

The proposal is a shocking attack on U.S. Supreme Court precedent and local school policies. The high court has held that individuals have a fundamental right to “marry, establish a home and bring up children” and that children are unable to make “sound judgments” about key decisions surrounding medical care.

Captured: Transgender Suspect Who Allegedly Gunned Down Parents in Utah

A transgender suspect who allegedly shot and killed his parents in Washington, Utah, Tuesday was captured Wednesday and has been charged with numerous felonies.

ABC 4 noted that the shooting suspect, originally named Collin Troy Bailey, now goes by Mia Bailey, and is “a transgender male transitioning to female.” . . .

While Bailey was still on the loose, Washington Police Department’s Lt. Kory Klotz warned that Bailey’s looks could change quickly, indicating that “wears wigs and is known to change hairstyles frequently.”

2 KUTV reported that law enforcement documents claimed Bailey told them, “She did not have remorse for her actions and that she would not change what she had done.” (Read more from “Captured: Transgender Suspect Who Allegedly Gunned Down Parents in Utah” HERE)

Remember That ‘Trans Woman’ Who Went Topless at the Biden White House? Well…

A so-called “trans woman” who flashed his prosthetic breasts during a White House “Pride” event last year has been accused of sexually assaulting at least five people. . .

This week, Reduxx reported that Montoya was accused of sexual assault by another transgender person, his ex-girlfriend Jesse Diamond, who is a female who reportedly identifies as a man (via Reduxx):

On June 13, Diamond posted a thread to X accusing Montoya of sexually assaulting her while she was recovering from “phallo surgeries,” the surgeries that attempts to make female genitalia resemble male genitalia.

[…]

In a video posted to TikTok, Diamond provides screenshots purported to be from Montoya admitting to the sexual assault.

[…]

Diamond explained on her TikTok that the method of phalloplasty she received was the “semi-ridged rod” which is “broken at the base.” She also described the recovery process as “hell” and stated she was bed ridden and had to learn how to walk again.

It was during this time when Diamond was particularly vulnerable post surgery that she alleges the abuse by Montoya occurred.

“I was physically incapable of walking the first 10+ times that [he] r*ped me. I couldn’t run away if I tried & I couldn’t afford to stay anywhere else,” Diamond wrote in her Thread on X.

Medical Organizations Urge End to Transgender Surgeries for Kids

Last week, pediatricians, doctors, and medical organizations from across the country joined forces, urging all U.S. medical personnel to stop experimentation and abuse of children under the guise of transgender treatment.

The “Doctors Protecting Children Declaration,” authored by the American College of Pediatricians (ACPEDS), was a collaborative effort relying on the expertise of hundreds of doctors, researchers, health-care workers, and leaders who “for years have been sounding the alarm on the harmful protocols that continue to be promoted by the medical organizations within the United States,” said ACPEDS Executive Director Jill Simons, MD, at a June 6 press conference.

The American Academy of Pediatrics, Endocrine Society, Pediatric Endocrine Society, American Medical Association, American Psychological Association, and the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry need to “follow the science” their European colleagues are finally acknowledging “and immediately stop the promotion of social affirmation, puberty blockers, cross sex hormones and surgeries for children and adolescents who experience distress over their biological sex,” Simons said. “[We are] defying the claims made by these medical organizations in the U.S. that those of us who are concerned are a minority, and that their protocols are consensus. They are not consensus and we are speaking in a loud unified voice, ‘Enough.’” . . .

Representing thousands of health-care workers in more than 50 countries, the declaration comes on the heels of the April release of the nearly 400-page Cass Review, an extensive and independent review of gender services for children commissioned by the British National Health Service. The findings were glaring: no evidence of positive mental health outcomes for children who socially “transitioned;” social transitioning led to increased medical interventions; puberty blockers reduced bone density in youth and led to no improvements in gender dysphoria or body satisfaction; most long-term negative outcomes are yet to be seen.

In spite of this and the recently leaked WPATH files exposing the dangerous pseudoscience base for gender medicine, some U.S. medical organizations have not changed course, Simons said. With “clearly laid out evidence that these procedures are harmful and not helpful,” Simons and her colleagues had expected gender-transition practitioners to take a step back from current protocols, but instead they have “doubled down and said they’re going to continue with what they’re doing.” (Read more from “Medical Organizations Urge End to Transgender Surgeries for Kids” HERE)

Trans Runner Complains Biological Females Didn’t Congratulate Him Enough After Getting Beat (VIDEO)

. . .When the race kicked off, transgender track runner Veronica Garcia didn’t hear the boos raining down.

But they only got louder when Garcia became the leader of the Washington State 2A girls 400-meter run at the track and field championships in Tacoma, so loud that Garcia could no longer deny them. Garcia ended up winning, becoming the first transgender athlete in Washington high school sports to have a first place finish in state. . .

While Garcia’s competition was getting their medals, the junior cheered and clapped for them. However, when Garcia was called up to the podium, the crowd went quiet. And on top of that, Garcia’s high school competition didn’t even give him acknowledgement, standing with their hands behind them. Good for them!

. . .

“I guess maybe I expected sportsmanship because I was cheering the rest of them on when they were called. So I guess I expected to get that reciprocated,” said Garcia, according to The Spokesman-Review. “But I didn’t get that.” (Read more from “Trans Runner Complains Biological Females Didn’t Congratulate Him Enough After Getting Beat (VIDEO)” HERE)

Sexual Assault Survivor’s Ordeal With Trans Inmate in Female Prison Explored in Documentary

A sexual assault survivor gave an inside look at living in a female prison with male criminals who say they identify as transgender in a new documentary released Tuesday by the Independent Women’s Forum, a conservative group.

The six-minute documentary, part of Independent Women’s Forum’s “Cruel & Unusual Punishment: The Male Takeover of Female Prisons” series, focuses on the story of Evelyn Valiente, a sexual assault survivor and former inmate at the Central California Women’s Facility. Valiente, who uses a pseudonym to protect her identity, was forced to share a housing unit with a male inmate who said he identified as a woman while serving time for killing someone in a shooting.

“At first I thought it was going to be OK [but] it didn’t take long before this one particular individual was manipulative, calculating, vindictive, and always looking and seeking to do harm to another person,” Valiente said of the “trans” inmate, who had a history of sex crime convictions.

In 2020, California Gov. Gavin Newsom, a Democrat, signed legislation requiring the state’s prison system to house inmates based on their gender identity and not their biological sex. Under the law, corrections officers are required to ask inmates privately how they identify and then work to house them accordingly.

Before her time in prison, Valiente had been sexually assaulted. She said that being in the same housing unit as an individual who had been convicted of sex crimes, as well as other men, made it “scary” not only for her but for many other women who had “come from very abusive backgrounds.”

The Tide Is About To Turn Against Gender Activists Abusing America’s Kids

It’s easy to look back on the great horrors of history and wonder how they could have happened in the first place. From genocides to eugenic movements to ritualistic abuses, modern human beings wonder how people could go along with such travesties to begin with.

Historically, human minds haven’t been changed in these circumstances by facts or data or logic. It’s not often an ultra-compelling argument or nicely-presented chart that wins over hearts and minds. It’s real, raw, emotional connection.

That’s why Detrans: True Stories of Escaping the Gender Ideology Cult, a new book out Tuesday by former Daily Caller News Foundation reporter Mary Margaret Olohan, could prove to be a pivotal work in the battle for the soul of this nation on the issue of child mutilation — or, as its proponents call it, “gender-affirming care.”

Olohan’s book features in-depth interviews with “detransitioners” — that is, individuals who thought they were transgender, went through some or all phases of transitioning and then later came to regret it — detailing their experiences. It’s one of the most powerful books anyone will ever read. Each lie that is told to these victims, life-altering drug that is pushed onto them and mutilating procedure that is performed on them, leading to a life of depression and regret, will make the reader’s heart sink and trigger a shudder.

Don’t look away, though. These are real things happening to real people. Parents being told their children will kill themselves if they don’t transition. Kids waking up from surgery with the breasts removed. Losing basic bodily functions after procedures that their doctors didn’t tell them about — every horrific detail actually happened.

A ‘Trans’ Athlete Won a Girls’ State Title. Here’s How the Crowd Reacted.

A transgender high school athlete was booed at a track and field event after he competed against females and won a state title.

The athlete, Aayden Gallagher won the Oregon Girls’ 6A 200-meter race by two-tenths of a second. Reportedly, Gallagher had the best time of the preliminary heats in the event (via the New York Post):

Gallagher finished in first place in the 400-meter preliminary event with a 56.14 time – 0.23 seconds better than the second-place finisher. Gallagher finished second in the 200-meter preliminary event with a time of 24.49 – about 0.17 slower than the first-place finisher.

Those events led her to qualifying for the state finals that occurred this weekend.

The meet reportedly took place in Eugene, Oregon, the same stadium where the U.S. Championships and Olympic Trials take place.

Teachers Union Boots School Counselor Who Questioned Trans Policies: Report

A teachers’ union in Minnesota expelled an elementary school counselor who expressed concerns about her district’s trans-identified students’ policy, The Christian Post reported Saturday.

The counselor, Christina Barton, stated during meetings on March 19 and May 7 that she did not believe that Rochester Public Schools took adequate steps to inform parents if their child identified as the opposite sex, according to The Christian Post.

In early May, Barton received a letter from the Rochester Education Association informing her that she was expelled from the union, The Christian Post reported.

The president of the Rochester Education Association, Vince Wagner, told The Christian Post that Barton was expelled for violating the National Education Association’s Code of Ethics for teachers, especially Principle 1 related to “Commitment to the Student.”

The association’s letter alleged that Barton “mischaracterized Rochester Public Schools policies and practices regarding LGBTQ+ students, spoke negatively of fellow union members, and spread misinformation about transgender youth,” according to the Christian Post.
