A Look Into the Trans Activist Couple Arrested for Assaulting a GOP Lawmaker and Police (VIDEO)

A pair of transgender activists are facing assault charges for attacking a GOP lawmaker and a state trooper at the Oklahoma state Capitol after the state’s House of Representatives passed legislation that would ban “gender-transition procedures” from being performed on children in the Republican-led Sooner State, according to court documents Townhall has obtained via public records requests.

20-year-old Savanna Grace Mitchell—a five-foot, three-inch biological female identifying as a transgender man—and 21-year-old Austin Allen Ross—a six-foot, one-inch biological male identifying as a transgender woman—are lovers and apparent partners in crime. Mitchell, who goes by the trans moniker “Devyn,” and Ross, who uses the trans alias “Ari,” were among the triggered transgender activists and allies that were protesting H.B. 2177, a bill prohibiting healthcare professionals from providing or attempting to provide a referral for puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and “gender-reassignment surgeries” to minors. . .

As legislators were exiting the House chamber post-vote, Mitchell was filmed hurling water at 65-year-old GOP state Rep. Bob Ed Culver, Jr. in a vengeful attack. Mitchell was swiftly pursued down two-and-a-half flights of stairs where, on a landing in the Capitol’s southwest stairwell, the screaming trans suspect swung and slapped a responding Oklahoma Highway Patrol trooper.

Sports Broadcaster Calls Decision on USA Powerlifting and Transgender Athletes ‘Unfair to Women’

USA Powerlifting was ordered to allow transgender women to compete with biological females in the women’s division after losing a discrimination case.

The decision drew ire from many across social media, including ESPN anchor Sage Steele, who noticed the news made waves at the start of Women’s History Month.

“Yes. Unfair to women,” she said in response to a tweet from Twitter CEO Elon Musk. “And the irony of this decision being made during Women’s History Month……

‘Girls Are Going to Be Just Fine’: Dem Lawmaker Dismisses Female Athletes’ Concerns About Trans Competitors (VIDEO)

Democratic Minnesota state Rep. Kaohly Vang Her dismissed concerns from some female athletes facing biological men in athletic competitions in the state’s House of Representatives on Thursday.

The Minnesota House State and Local Government Committee passed House File 173, which proposes adding an Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) to the state constitution. The amendment would read, “Equality under the law shall not be abridged or denied by this state or any of its cities, counties, or other political subdivisions on account of race, color, creed, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, age, disability, ancestry, or national origin.”

Senate Democrats are pushing a similar amendment on the national scale, holding a hearing Tuesday on the ERA. Conservative activist Phyllis Schlafly mobilized women in opposition to the amendment as early as the 1970s, and even today experts warn that the amendment could eliminate all distinctions between the biological sexes, allowing trans-identified biological men to compete against females in athletic competitions.

“I am so sorry but our cisgender girls are gonna be just fine. Society is built in a way that accommodates us already,” Vang her said in a House committee hearing. “The fears we have around a fair competition — it is fair. And the few trans girls that play with the girls, our cisgender girls will be ok.”

Parent’s Nightmare: 5th Grade Teacher Sued for Calling a Girl a Boy’s Name Until She Felt Suicidal

A teacher at an elementary school in Long Island is accused of pressuring a 9-year-old girl to question her gender identity and sexuality to the point that the girl was openly discussing suicide. Her parents have now sued the school district and the teacher claiming that she pressured their daughter toward a trans identity as a boy.

Debra Rosenquist — a 5th-grade teacher at Terryville Road Elementary School in Port Jefferson Station — started calling the 9-year-old Leo and using opposite gender pronouns toward the beginning of the 2021-’22 school year, according to a lawsuit filed in Suffolk County Court by the child’s parents last month.

The parents say they were only clued in about what was happening in January 2022, when the school principal called them telling them their child – referred to in court papers as A.V. – had drawn a picture of a girl, writing “I wanna kill myself” and “I feel sad like a lot,” the filing claims.

The principal also informed the parents that A.V. had even met with the school psychologist telling the mental health worker that she “was confused about her gender identity,” the court papers say.

Despite Rosenquist, 62, having referred to the student “for months at that point” as Leo, it was only during the Jan. 27, 2022 call that the parents were asked for the first time if this name was okay, the suit claims.

Dwyane Wade’s Child Legally Changes ID to Female despite Birth Mother’s Opposition

Ex-NBA star Dwyane Wade’s son, born Zion Malachi Airamis Wade, has legally changed his first name to Zaya in an L.A. court on Friday and is now officially a “female,” even in the face of opposition over the move from his birth mother.

The teen, who has gone by Zaya since 2020 and wants to be seen as a girl, also won permission from the Los Angeles Superior Court to change gender markers on official documents, according to People.

Wade’s son first came out as transgender in 2020 and made his first appearance as a transgender girl in March of that year.

That “re-introduction” came a month after the couple went public to proudly support the boy, who decided to be known as a girl named Zaya going forward. (Read more from “Dwyane Wade’s Child Legally Changes ID to Female despite Birth Mother’s Opposition” HERE)

The Doctors Failed Me: Detransitioned Woman Sues Eight Health Care Workers Who Helped Her Change

A detransitioned woman who underwent surgery to remove her breasts and uterus is suing the healthcare providers who are reported to have facilitated her transition.

Michelle Zacchigna, 34, has filed a lawsuit against the eight doctors and mental health professionals who prescribed her testosterone treatments and gave her a bilateral mastectomy and a hysterectomy during what she says was a mental health crisis.

Over a ten year period, she went from seeing a therapist to being referred for hormone therapy by doctors who she had limited interaction with, including one she says she spoke to for less than an hour, to undergoing irreversible surgery and deciding mental health diagnoses better explained her condition than anything else in 2020.

‘I will live the rest of my life without breasts, with a deepened voice and male-pattern balding, and without the ability to get pregnant,’ she wrote.

‘Removing my completely healthy uterus is my greatest regret.’ (Read more from “The Doctors Failed Me: Detransitioned Woman Sues Eight Health Care Workers Who Helped Her Change” HERE)

Woke Media Erupts After a Republican Senator Questions a Transgender Pharmacist (VIDEO)

The woke media erupted after Sen. Matt McKee (R-AR) questioned a transgender pharmacist during a Judiciary Committee hearing, sparking outrage from the Left.

Earlier this week, McKee asked Gwendolyn Herzig, a transgender pharmacist who biologically is a man, if she had a penis.

“You said that you’re a trans woman?” McKee asked Herzig. “Do you have a penis?” . . .

McKee’s question rifled some feathers among the attendees, with one yelling out “disgraceful.” . . .

In an essay for the Independent, the transgender pharmacist said the exchange was “utterly mortifying” and had to “fight back the tears.” (Read more from “Woke Media Erupts After a Republican Senator Questions a Transgender Pharmacist” HERE)

Trans Pride Flag Creator, 71, Announces Adoption of 14-Year-Old ‘Trans Daughter’

The Navy veteran responsible for designing the transgender pride flag has announced on social media that he and his partner, also a trans-identified male, have adopted a “transgender” child.

Monica Helms, born Robert Hogge, designed the first trans pride flag in 1999. He currently resides in Georgia with his partner Darlene Darlington Wagner, another trans-identified male who is 23 years younger than him.

On December 22, Helms announced that he and Wagner were in the process of adopting a 14-year-old “trans daughter,” who was living with the two adults while the paperwork was being finalized. The child is a biological male who Helms claims is a “girl.”

Helms is currently 71-years-old, but the state of Georgia does not place maximum age restrictions on adoption.

Poll: Majority of Black Americans Believe Gender Is ‘Determined by Sex Assigned at Birth’

A Pew Research poll for February 2023 reveals that over two-thirds of black Americans believe gender is “determined by the sex assigned at birth.”

The poll, titled “Black Americans’ views on transgender and nonbinary issues,” asks about gender, discrimination, and transgender issues.

When asked if a person is determined to be a man or a woman “by the sex assigned at birth” or if people can be different from the sex they were “assigned at birth,” 68% of all black adults said a person’s gender is the same as the sex at birth, with 31% saying it can change.

For those who agree that gender is determined by sex at birth, more college-educated and degree recipients say the same (72% and 70%), as opposed to 64% of high school-educated individuals.

Conservatives agree with the statement at a 70% rate, with moderates at 75%, and liberals at just 51%. (Read more from “Poll: Majority of Black Americans Believe Gender Is ‘Determined by Sex Assigned at Birth’ HERE)

U.K.’s Largest Pediatric Gender Clinic Ignored Autism Connection in Teens Seeking Sex Changes, New Book Claims

The U.K.’s largest pediatric gender clinic has been accused in a new book of medicalizing teens with comorbidities, including more than a third of patients who showed signs of “moderate to severe” autism.

The book, “Time to Think: The Inside Story of the Collapse of the Tavistock’s Gender Service for Children” by BBC Newsnight journalist Hannah Barnes, alleges that the the Tavistock Clinic, an NHS facility in the U.K. officially called the Gender Identity Development Service (GIDS), ignored evidence that 97.5% of children seeking chemical and surgical sex reassignment services had autism, depression, or other problems that may have explained their unhappiness.

“Some staff feared they could be unnecessarily medicating autistic children,” Barnes wrote.

After conducting over 100 hours of interviews with clinicians and patients during research for the book, Barnes found that staff at the facility sought to push a pro-transgender policy and, as one whistleblower put it, treated children who might not have been transgender as “collateral damage.”

According to the book, former staff said many children, including those with neurodevelopmental disorders like autism and ADHD, were unnecessarily prescribed drugs and even surgery. The book reports that less than 2% of children in the U.K. have an autism spectrum disorder, but approximately 35% of GIDS referrals “present with moderate to severe autistic traits.” (Read more from “U.K.’s Largest Pediatric Gender Clinic Ignored Autism Connection in Teens Seeking Sex Changes, New Book Claims” HERE)
