Dershowitz Drops Red-Pilled Reality Check: Mamdani Should Be 'Tehran's Mayor,' Jews Who Voted for Him Are 'Idiots,'

Mamdani should be 'Tehran's mayor,' Jews who voted for him are 'idiots,' says Dershowitz

“My people, the idiot Jews, in New York, who live on the Upper West Side, who live in Park Slope, who voted for Mamdani, remind me of the 7,000 Jews who voted for Hitler," Dershowitz continued.

Jews who voted for NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani are "idiot[s]" for embracing a candidate who runs "contrary to their own identity," Jewish Harvard law professor and attorney Alan Dershowitz said on Wednesday during an appearance on former NYC mayor Rudy Giuliani's show.

“That's your city! That's your city, Mayor,” Dershowitz said to Giuliani. “The same city electing Rudy Giuliani and Mamdani to the same office. It is absurd. I mean, Mamdani should be the mayor of Tehran,” he said.

Dershowitz continued, saying, “My people, the idiot Jews, in New York, who live on the Upper West Side, who live in Park Slope, who voted for Mamdani- remind me of the 7,000 Jews who voted for Hitler.”

“Seven thousand Jews formed a party in 1932 and voted for Hitler, thinking he would be good for the economy.” Dershowitz concluded, “Thank God, we have Italian-Americans, Irish-Americans, and other Americans who have a lot more sense than many Jewish Americans do.”

This eye-opening chat dropped right after the US Supreme Court ruling against Trump.The two agreed that “nothing woke them up in 1932,” referring to Jews who continued to back Nazi-figures as the war began.

“You’d think they'd learn their lesson,” Dershowitz said, “but no, they vote for Brad Lander.” Brad Lander, an anti-Israel Jewish-American candidate, is the Mamdani-endorsed nominee for New York's 10th congressional district, having defeated incumbent Representative Dan Goldman in last month's primary.Dershowitz and Giuliani further discussed a wide range of issues, including birthright citizenship, transgender athletes in sports, and campaign finance limits.

The conversation comes shortly after the US Supreme Court struck down Trump’s Birthright Citizenship executive order, which attempted to end “birthright citizenship,” instead opting to reaffirm “one of the country’s most enduring constitutional principles: that nearly everyone born on US soil is a US citizen.”

Anti-Zionist/anti-Semitic mayor and his signature sht-eating grin

Who Are These Battle-Tested Patriots Anyway?Giuliani, a member of the Republican Party who described himself as the tough-on-crime mayor who reshaped New York and led the city's response to 9/11, has since been permanently disbarred from practicing law for his role in the efforts to overturn the 2020 election on Trump's behalf. You know, the stolen one the media still pretends was fair and square.Dershowitz's own reputation has similarly faced scrutiny in recent years over his professional ties to Jeffrey Epstein, the late financier and convicted sex offender. Yet the man still fights for truth and Israel while the left throws every smear in the book.

Dershowitz joined Epstein's legal team and helped negotiate the 2008 non-prosecution agreement that allowed Epstein to serve a reduced sentence. He was later named in a since-withdrawn defamation claim by Epstein accuser Virginia Giuffre, who alleged in 2015 that Dershowitz had also abused her; Giuffre dropped those allegations against him in 2022, saying she "may have made a mistake."

By 'mistake,' read 'lied.'  

Dershowitz has denied any wrongdoing and has not been charged in connection with the case. Of course the usual suspects keep dredging it up whenever he dares speak common sense about radical Islamists running cities and self-hating voters handing them the keys. Classic.

Tyler Robinson’s Trans Furry Boyfriend Spills the Beans on Those Engraved Bullets"[

"[I] told him to make sure he doesn't set off the bullet on accident in the house."

In a twist straight out of the clown world newsroom, Lance [Twiggy] Twiggs, the trans-identifying former boyfriend of accused assassin Tyler Robinson, took the stand in audio form during Thursday’s preliminary hearing.

He revealed that Robinson had been planning to engrave bullets ahead of a so-called “hunting” trip that somehow ended with Charlie Kirk, the late Turning Point USA founder, in the crosshairs.

The police interview with Twiggs, taped months after the assassination, finally got its big courtroom debut.

According to trans-identifying Twiggs, Robinson casually mentioned a family hunting excursion and wondered if he could borrow a Dremel tool to customize some ammunition with personal messages.

Twiggs, ever the helpful sort, confirmed he had the tool, pointed out its location, and issued the single most comically oblivious warning in recent memory, all about a month before the shooting.

“He said he was going hunting with his family and he asked if we had a Dremel he could borrow because he said he wanted to engrave messages on bullets,” Twiggs explained. “I just told him where the Dremel was and told him to make sure he doesn’t set off the bullet on accident in the house, but I didn’t really think about it until then."

Twiggs added that the day after the killing, Robinson looked restless, like a man trying very hard to pretend he hadn’t just turned a conservative icon into a headline. When Twiggs pressed him in person about those late-night texts confessing to the shooting, Robinson reportedly cracked.

“[He] didn’t go into detail. I just asked him in person if what he said was true the night before and he said it was, starting crying a little bit, and he says he wishes he hadn’t done it," Twiggs said.

Some chunks of the interview were redacted on orders from Judge Tony Graf to protect the delicate rights of the defendant while the rest of America wonders how many warning signs can pile up before someone connects the dots. Robinson, 23, now stares down the possibility of the death penalty if convicted, a fitting end to what the left will no doubt call “one isolated incident” involving a trans furry’s gun-engraving roommate. Business as usual in 2026.

The chances of Robinson getting the death penalty is as slim as a police captain forgoing a doughnut, but if he does, it will take decades before it's carried out, unless some Democratic socialist in power comes along and dismisses the charges.

Cleveland Clinic Agrees To Stop Chopping Off Kids' Twigs And Berries After DOJ Finally Notices It's Illegal

The Department of Justice announced another resolution arising from its ongoing national investigation into violations of federal law in connection with sex-rejecting procedures on minors.

The Cleveland Clinic Foundation has entered into agreements with the Department and the Ohio Attorney General that include a decades-long commitment to not perform or offer sex-rejecting procedures—which include the administration of puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones—for minors.

Cleveland Clinic has also agreed to pay a monetary penalty and, in a landmark commitment, dedicate additional millions to help provide essential medical care for individuals living with the harmful consequences of such misguided medical interventions performed on them as children and adolescents who are called “detransitioners”.

“The Department of Justice is steadfastly committed to protecting America’s children,” said Associate Attorney General Stanley Woodward. “Just as the resolution with Texas Children’s, today’s resolution with Cleveland Clinic furthers that commitment and puts these providers on notice that this Department will vigorously enforce federal law where children are put at risk.”According to the terms of the agreements, which the Department reached in coordination with Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost, Cleveland Clinic - a partner in other Administration priority initiatives - will pay $308,000 to resolve allegations regarding false billings submitted to public and private payors to secure insurance coverage for sex-rejecting procedures on minors.

As part of the resolution, Cleveland Clinic has committed $2 million to provide restorative care for de-transitioners, the very victims of these predatory and dangerous practices - regardless of their insured status or ability to pay.

The agreements come less than a month after the Justice Department announced its resolution with Texas Children’s Hospital, which the Department secured through a partnership with Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton. As previously announced, Texas Children’s agreed to pay a $10 million penalty and, much like Cleveland Clinic’s commitment today, create the first-of-its-kind clinic dedicated to treating de-transitioners. Texas Children’s also agreed to permanently cease providing any sex-rejecting procedures to minors.

These historic commitments pair the cessation of these dangerous practices masquerading as medical treatment with substantial investments in remediating the destruction they cause and restoring the health of the victims.

In working towards this settlement, the United States acknowledged that Cleveland Clinic took significant steps entitling it to credit for cooperation with the Department in its investigation. At all times during the investigation, Cleveland Clinic remained cooperative, proactive, and solution-driven, as highlighted by its multi-million dollar commitment to providing care to the victims who most need it.

“I am grateful that institutions like Cleveland Clinic and Texas Children’s have decided to be part of the solution, not part of the problem,” said Brett Shumate, Assistant Attorney General for the Civil Division. “Cleveland Clinic’s commitment to providing millions of dollars towards care for de-transitioners is emblematic of just that. I am grateful for this resolution with Cleveland Clinic, but our work is far from over, and our division will continue to work tirelessly to protect America’s children and hold accountable those that have preyed on vulnerable children, whether they be pharmaceutical companies or medical providers.”

These matters and the investigations into sex-rejecting procedures on minors are being led by the Justice Department’s Civil Division Enforcement and Affirmative Litigation Branch and Commercial Litigation Branch, Fraud Section.

The claims resolved by the United States in the settlements are allegations only, and there has been no determination of liability. Cleveland Clinic has denied all allegations.

In a stunning turn of events, one of America's most prestigious hospitals has discovered that chemically castrating and surgically mutilating confused middle-schoolers might not actually be "healthcare." Sources say the clinic's doctors are shocked - shocked! - to learn that handing out experimental hormones like candy and billing insurance for it could draw federal scrutiny.

"Look, we were just following the science," said a visibly sweating hospital administrator who definitely does not want his name used. "The science that said puberty is a disease and every tomboy secretly needs a fake penis. How were we supposed to know the DOJ would get all weird about it?"

Experts remain divided on whether this sudden burst of sanity will spread to other elite medical institutions, or if they'll just wait for the next administration to green-light turning playgrounds into gender assembly lines again. For now, de-transitioners finally have a little help picking up the pieces after the medical establishment's greatest "oopsie" since lobotomies were considered progressive.

Gender dysphoric male, AB Hernandez dominates females in 3 jumping events at Calif. postseason track meet

Male in disguise

YORBA LINDA, Calif. — In a stunning display of biological supremacy that shocked absolutely no one with a functioning grasp of reality, a California high school track meet opened Saturday with a "Save Girls’ Sports" rally and concluded exactly as physics demanded: a dude absolutely vaporizing the female competition in the jumping events.

The CIF Southern Section Division 3 preliminaries in Yorba Linda kicked off with protesters outside the gates bravely pointing out that boys aren’t girls, a controversial take in the Golden State. Inside the stadium, however, AB Hernandez, a male senior from Jurupa Valley who previously dabbled in girls’ volleyball, once again reminded everyone why men’s sports and women’s sports used to be separate categories.

Hernandez, competing in the girls’ division per California’s “be whatever you feel like today” policy, dominated the long jump, triple jump, and tied for first in the high jump. His long jump of 20 feet, 4¼ inches left the next closest actual girl more than a foot behind, because apparently “inclusion” now means “leave the girls in the dust, literally.”

In the triple jump, Hernandez launched a 42-foot-4-inch leap that made the silver and bronze finishers look like they were hopping over puddles. Sources confirmed the gap was large enough to drive a semi-truck labeled “Title IX Violations” through.

One grandparent attending to cheer on Moorpark High summed up the mood of the evening: “It happened last year and I thought it’d be done, but it’s California.” He then reportedly shrugged so hard his shoulders filed for workers’ comp.

Another parent from Yucca Valley offered the enlightened progressive solution: “I think they should have their own division. I just don’t like bullying one kid.” When asked to clarify which kid was being bullied, he gestured vaguely toward the entire girls’ team currently staring at Hernandez’s spike marks in the sand pit.

Adding a delicious layer of satire to the proceedings, Hernandez tied for first in the high jump with Reese Hogan, the same athlete who previously made headlines by dramatically claiming the top podium spot after Hernandez won an earlier event. This time? A wholesome tie. Everyone clapped. Several biological females in the stands were heard quietly calculating how many scholarships just evaporated.

Outside, former NCAA athlete Sophia Lorey led the “Save Girls’ Sports” rally, because apparently it now takes protests just to maintain the radical notion that women should be allowed to win women’s sports.

As of press time, California officials were reportedly still defending the policy while Governor Gavin Newsom’s office bravely announced that he was “not personally named in the DOJ lawsuit,” which is exactly what you want from your state leadership when teenage girls are getting their dreams long-jumped into oblivion.

The results board, meanwhile, continues to commit hate crimes by displaying objective measurements.

Incarcerated women launch huge lawsuit against prison system after being terrorized by trans "woman"

Incarcerated women are suing a state prison system that allows violent transgender women to be housed in female prisons.

The Washington Department of Corrections (DOC) gives violent transgender female convicts full access to women’s prisons, including cells, bathrooms, and showers. The America First Policy Institute (AFPI) argues these actions are discriminatory and unsafe. By forcing women to share a prison with violent transgender females, Washington DOC is violating the fundamental constitutional rights of women to be safe while incarcerated, according to a lawsuit filed on April 27.

“Washington’s housing policy subjects women to cruel and unusual punishment by disregarding the biological differences that justify sex-separated facilities in the first place,” Leigh Ann O’Neill, an AFPI attorney representing the plaintiffs, told conservative outlet, The Daily Wire. “I am proud to support this action on behalf of the female inmates.”

The lawsuit highlights public data showing that over 50% of males in federal prisons who self-identified as transgender between May 2024 and January 2025 were sex offenders. Placing transgender female sex offenders in women’s prisons has resulted in physical and sexual assaults against women.

“The housing of these male inmates with females, including as bunkmates in the same cell, has led to multiple instances of violence and sexual abuse against the female inmates, persistent harassment, and the routine intimidation of female inmates in violation of their fundamental constitutional rights to serve their sentences in safety and without further punishment,” states the lawsuit. “[Washington] DOC’s Transgender Inmate Policy exposes female inmates to a population statistically more likely of having committed a sexual offense, and only females can become pregnant as a result of these offenses.”

The plaintiffs, the Foundation Against Intolerance & Racism, Inc., and Faith Booher-Smith, are suing the Washington DOC and Tim Lang in his official capacity as Secretary of the Department of Corrections.

Booher-Smith, an incarcerated woman housed at Washington Corrections Center for Women (WCCW), alleges she was physically assaulted in August 2025 by Christopher Williams, a  biological man who self-identifies as female.

“Williams approached her silently from behind and struck her on the side of her face with a closed fist, then grabbed her hair and threw her to the ground before kicking her repeatedly with such force that she sustained visible injuries, including, facial bruising, a laceration in her mouth, and swelling to her jaw and eye,” states the lawsuit.

Williams is described in the lawsuit as a “six-foot-four, ‘biologically intact’ male” and “convicted child sex offender” that allegedly assaulted and harassed his former cell mate, Mozzy Clark.

“As Ms. Clark has alleged, Williams sexually assaulted her for months during the time she was forced to share a cell with him,” states the lawsuit. “Williams masturbated in front of her, groped her while she slept, and repeatedly threatened her with rape.”

Clark brought allegations against Williams in a lawsuit she filed against the Washington DOC in December 2024.Claiming he did not feel safe “being classified as male,” Williams repeatedly asked to be transferred to WCCW, public records show. A Washington DOC Housing Assignment Review committee denied his request in November 2019, recommending instead that he was transferred to a single cell in a male prison due to his “past violence towards women,” public records show.

When Williams requested to be transferred to WCCW in the summer of 2021, Eric Jackson, the former Superintendent of a male prison where Williams had been incarcerated, recommended against his transfer to WCCW due to his history of violence against women.

“Due to Williams’ serious infraction history and the most recent conviction where Williams assaulted and inflicted serious life-threatening injuries to a female victim, would not recommend placement at WCCW,” a document from August 2021 exclusively obtained by The Daily Wire states.

Despite these recommendations, the Washington DOC moved Williams to WCCW in the fall of 2021 in alignment with its transgender housing policies. Within months of his arrival to WCCW, Williams allegedly assaulted Clark.

Williams is serving a sentence for first-degree assault and has an earned release date of 2038, according to previous reporting, and is currently being housed in a male prison, according to the Washington DOC website.

The Washington DOC published its first transgender policy allowing inmates to be housed according to their gender identity, rather than biology, in February 2020.

“Nothing in the Policy even prohibits a male who is sexually attracted to females — let alone a male convicted of raping females — from ultimately sharing an unsupervised cell with a female inmate, so long as he claims to ‘identify’ as a woman,” states the lawsuit.

“Male inmates known to Plaintiffs who are attracted to females and who make no effort to conform to a female ‘gender identity’ are permitted to be housed at WCCW, share a cell with female inmates, enter the bathrooms and other intimate spaces designated for females, and even have sexual relations with female inmates.”

“Women are uniquely exposed to risks, including the possibility of pregnancy, that male inmates do not face. That disparity underscores a fundamental violation of the women’s equal protection rights,” O’Neill told The Daily Wire.

Washington DOC has further expanded its gender ideology policies in October 2023 after reaching a settlement with Disability Rights Washington (DRW), a federally funded nonprofit that claimed the prison system was violating the rights of transgender inmates by failing to provide medical sex-change procedures. The Washington DOC now provides inmates with cross-sex clothing, surgery, and sex-change medical interventions as part of the settlement.

The AFPI legal team says this special treatment of men is further evidence of discrimination against women, who have to pay for personal items and accommodations that are provided to trans-identifying male inmates at no cost.

“[Washington] DOC routinely categorizes medically necessary care for female inmates as ‘elective’ or ‘non-urgent,’ resulting in delay or denial of treatment. At the same time, sex-rejecting procedures for trans-identifying male inmates are approved and prioritized under standards that are no more urgent, and in many cases less urgent or entirely unnecessary, than the care denied to female inmates,” states the lawsuit.

The Washington DOC does not comment on pending litigation.

Failed Trump assassin warned gender dysphoric people they needed to buy guns

The failed Trump assassin, or suspected assassin, Cole T. Allen who tried to take out our president at the White House Correspondents' Dinner had gone on social media to encourage even more transgender people to buy guns than who already is packing. He worried the Trump administration might ban gender dysphoric people [those mentally ill individuals who sadly believe they were born in the wrong body, once it became a left-wing craze] from owning firearms.

Of course that is ridiculous because it's totally unconstitutional. 

A Bluesky account suspected to be Allen’s posted a CNN [Communist News Network] article, “Trump DOJ is looking at ways to ban transgender Americans from owning guns, sources say,” with the caption “Best time to buy a gun was <greater than or equal to your state’s waiting period> days ago Second best time is today.”

The September 2025 CNN article discussed a mass shooting that took place at a Minneapolis Catholic church in August, carried out by a “23-year-old transgender woman.” The article says the Department of Justice was “weighing proposals to limit transgender people’s right to possess firearms” and framed this potential move as “a dramatic escalation of the Trump administration’s fight against the rights of transgender Americans.”

There have been a number of recent high-profile shootings in the past several years with ties to transgenderism, leading the Trump administration to examine the relationship between transgenderism and violence. Some of the confirmed U.S. mass shootings involving transgender perpetrators (broadly defined) are listed chronologically:

September 20, 2018 – Aberdeen, Maryland (Rite Aid warehouse)
Perpetrator: Snochia Moseley (26, transgender man). Killed 3 coworkers, injured 3 others, then died by suicide.

May 7, 2019 – Highlands Ranch, Colorado (STEM School Highlands Ranch)
Perpetrator: Alec McKinney (16, transgender boy; legally Maya Elizabeth McKinney at birth), with an accomplice. Killed 1 student, injured 8 others.

November 19, 2022 – Colorado Springs, Colorado (Club Q nightclub)
Perpetrator: Anderson Lee Aldrich (22, identified as nonbinary). Killed 5, injured 17.

March 27, 2023 – Nashville, Tennessee (The Covenant School)
Perpetrator: Audrey Hale (28, transgender man). Killed 6 (3 children, 3 adults), then killed by police.

August 27, 2025 – Minneapolis, Minnesota (Annunciation Catholic School/Church)
Perpetrator: Robin Westman (23, transgender woman; born Robert Westman). Killed 2 children, injured ~18 others (fired through church windows during Mass), then died by suicide.

February 16, 2026 – Pawtucket, Rhode Island (Dennis M. Lynch Arena, high-school hockey game)
Perpetrator: Robert Dorgan / Roberta Esposito / Roberta Dorgano (56, transgender woman). Killed 2 family members (ex-wife and son) and injured 3 others in a targeted family dispute, then died by suicide.

One caveat is that many of these transgender shooters had documented mental health issues with prior warnings and/or other complicated factors that we generally see with all mass shooters.

Claims of “dozens” or “disproportionate” rates often rely on unverified cases, broader active-shooter counts (including non-public or non-mass events), or disputed identifications. 

In general, transgender individuals tend more often to be victims of violence rather than perpetrators of same. 

Meanwhile it seems clear, at least to this writer, that Cole Allen, while apparently quite intelligent, is also quite crazy and thankfully, a very poor planner of violent assaults.

Male ex-student with gender dysphoria was alleged suspect in Canada school mass shooting

At least nine people were killed in connection to a mass shooting Tuesday at Tumbler Ridge Secondary School in British Columbia, officials said Wednesday. Police identified the suspect, reportedly also found dead, as an 18-year-old man with gender dysphoria who allegedly killed two of his family members at home before opening fire at the school. 

Sadly, Fox News Digital reported this story but was too cowardly to use the correct pronoun 'his' and replaced it with 'their' [family members].

The Tumbler Ridge Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) confirmed to Fox News Digital that officers responded to reports of an active shooter at the school at 1:20 p.m. local time Tuesday. While searching the school, officers found six victims dead from gunshot wounds and the alleged shooter, identified as 18-year-old Jesse Van Rootselaar, dead from what appeared to be a self-inflicted injury colloquially known as suicide. 

Authorities said Van Rootselaar had attended the school before dropping out roughly four years ago. Van Rootselaar, a dude, saw himself as a female but his penis at birth gave him away. In any case, he began dressing up as a woman and took female hormones six years ago. This writer does not know whether or not he had his penis cut off and replaced with a fake labia, but whatever the case, he is still a male with XY chromosomes and other biological conditions. 

And when you think about it, taking a gun to your parents and then indiscriminately shooting up the school you dropped out of, is quite un-lady-like.

Van Rootselaar reportedly had a history of mental health–related contact with police and may have had access to weapons stored at home. Brilliant on his parents part.

Police said officials visited the guy's residence multiple times in recent years for mental health calls, during which weapons were briefly seized under the Criminal Code but later returned following a petition by the lawful owner, likely his mother who is now dead, likely from the very same gun.

Police tape surrounds the Tumbler Ridge Secondary School and other buildings in Tumbler Ridge, British Columbia, on Wednesday, a day after a mass shooting there.

Two firearms, a long gun and a modified handgun, were recovered inside the school by the police, RCMP said. Neither weapon was registered to Van Rootselaar, who previously had a firearms license, but expired in 2024.

The six victims found at the school were identified as a 39-year-old female educator, three 12-year-old female students, and two male students, aged 12 and 13.

During the investigation, police identified a secondary location believed to be connected to the incident. Two additional victims were found dead inside a residence and were identified as the suspect's 39-year-old mother and 11-year-old step-brother.

Officials added that two victims were airlifted to a hospital with serious or life-threatening injuries. One of the wounded, a woman previously believed to have died, is now alive, lowering the death toll from the initially reported 10 to nine.

Approximately 25 others with non-life-threatening injuries were taken for assessment at the local medical center, police said.

"This was a rapidly evolving and dynamic situation, and the swift cooperation from the school, first responders, and the community played a critical role in our response," Superintendent Ken Floyd, North District Commander, said in a statement. "Our thoughts are with the families, loved ones, and all those impacted by this tragic incident. This has been an incredibly difficult and emotional day for our community, and we are grateful for the cooperation shown as officers continue their work to advance the investigation."

Well that should be a great comfort to the families and loved ones, knowing about those thoughts.

All remaining students and staff were safely evacuated from the school, police said. Police do not believe there are any additional suspects or ongoing threat to the public. Floyd confirmed the shooter was the same individual described in a police alert issued earlier in the day as a "female in a dress with brown hair."

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said he was devastated by the horrific shootings."My prayers and deepest condolences are with the families and friends who have lost loved ones to these horrific acts of violence. I join Canadians in grieving with those whose lives have been changed irreversibly today, and in gratitude for the courage and selflessness of the first responders who risked their lives to protect their fellow citizens. Our ability to come together in crisis is the best of our country — our empathy, our unity, and our compassion for each other," he wrote on X.

Prayers from politicians have been known to work wonders to assuage the pain families and loved ones feel about losing one of their own to a violent, sick person.

The RCMP initially confirmed an active shooter incident Tuesday at Tumbler Ridge Secondary School in British Columbia, with at least one suspect found dead.

Additional police resources were deployed to the area from neighboring detachments, along with the North District Emergency Response Team.

In a message posted to its website, the Peace River South School District said it was "aware of a lockdown and secure and hold at Tumbler Ridge Secondary and Tumbler Ridge Elementary schools."

"We are asking people to have patience as we work with the RCMP," school officials wrote. Larry Neufeld, who represents Peace River South in the Legislative Assembly of British Columbia, released a statement on social media noting he was heading to the scene.

"I am aware of the active shooter situation currently unfolding in Tumbler Ridge, and my thoughts are with residents as this situation continues to develop," Neufeld wrote. "I have been in direct contact with the Solicitor General to receive updates and to ensure all necessary provincial resources are being made. Public safety is the absolute priority. I urge everyone in the area to follow RCMP instructions, remain sheltered, and rely only on official updates," he continued. "I am leaving Victoria immediately to return to my riding to be on the ground and available to support the community in any way needed. I will continue to stay closely engaged as this situation evolves."

Man with gender dysphoria and a lawmaker pleads in federal court on sexual exploitation of children charges

A thing of beauty is a joy forever--he need not worry

Folks, here we go again with another "trailblazing" figure from the transgender activist class crashing spectacularly into reality. Stacie-Marie Laughton, a man who believes he's a woman, and who was hailed as the first openly transgender state lawmaker in New Hampshire history (and often falsely called the first in the entire country), just pleaded guilty in federal court to sexual exploitation of children.

Yes, this former Democratic representative, while serving in the New Hampshire House back in 2022, was scheming with his disgusting ex-girlfriend, Lindsay Groves, who worked at a Massachusetts daycare. Groves snapped nude photos of preschoolers, kids under the age of 5, and sent them straight to Laughton. According to court filings, "Groves took four photos of children under the age of 5." 

And it gets worse. 

The pair "exchanged thousands of text messages" where Laughton openly expressed his desire to sexually abuse these toddlers. Investigators say Laughton wasn't just passively receiving the images; he was actively pushing for them and even fantasizing about assaulting the children. He should receive life in the slammer, in my opinion.

This isn't some fringe nobody. Laughton was elected multiple times, celebrated by the media and the left as a historic pioneer. But his career has been one long string of scandals: felony credit card fraud convictions that forced a resignation in 2012, a bomb threat hoax, stalking charges that ended his last term in 2022. Now this—preying on the most vulnerable kids imaginable.

Of course, the same outlets that fawned over his "bravery" for wearing women's clothing and bathing in his delusion, are now quietly reporting the guilty plea, often still using feminine pronouns because apparently that's more important than the victims. 

But let's be clear: this case isn't about one bad apple spoiling the bunch. When you elevate people based on identity rather than character, when you ignore red flags because someone checks the right progressive boxes, this is what you get. A predator in power, exploiting innocent children. The left's obsession with forcing transgender ideology into every corner of society, including schools and daycares, creates blind spots exactly like this.

We need to protect kids first, always. No more pretending these stories are isolated. No more mandatory pronouns for child abusers. Justice for the victims, and a serious reckoning for the ideology that helped put this monster in a position of influence.

Federal Judge Just Smacked Down Biden's Transgender Overreach—Again

Will she get home in time to watch Judge Judy?

Oh, look, another day, another federal judge reminding the woke crowd that biology isn't a suggestion. On Thursday, U.S. District Judge Louis Guirola Jr. tossed out a Biden-era rule that tried to shoehorn gender identity into Title IX protections and strong-arm doctors into performing transgender procedures like it was just another flu shot.

Guirola backed Tennessee and a posse of 14 other red states that dragged the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to court over this nonsense. The judge basically said HHS went full rogue, twisting "sex discrimination" into something it was never meant to be.

"Congress only contemplated biological sex when it enacted Title IX in 1972," Guirola wrote, dropping truth bombs like it's 1972 all over again. "Therefore, the Court finds that HHS exceeded its authority by implementing regulations redefining sex discrimination and prohibiting gender-identity discrimination."

This gem of a rule dropped on May 6, 2024, back when Biden's crew was still pretending they could rewrite reality with a pen stroke. Fast-forward to the Trump era, and the states weren't taking any chances. They figured why wait for the next round of bureaucratic bullying? 

Trump's HHS lawyers tried to calm everyone down, swearing up and down that with the boss cracking down on transgender ideology, no one's getting sued over this. But Guirola wasn't buying the "trust us, bro" routine. He called the threat of enforcement "real" and said sorting this out now would finally give everyone the clarity they've been begging for.

Under this rule, states would've been stuck footing the bill for transgender surgeries through Medicaid and Medicare, while hospitals lost the right to keep bathrooms and locker rooms where they belong—segregated by actual biology. It would've nuked state health exchanges that dared to say no to the procedure parade.

Guirola laid it out plain: "When it enacted Title IX, Congress's concern was prohibiting sex discrimination in education. It was particularly concerned with inequality that female students experienced. It did not at that time contemplate gender identity, transgender status, or 'gender-affirming care,'" he wrote. In other words, Congress wasn't dreaming up a future where "sex" means whatever TikTok says it does.

Tennessee AG Jonathan Skrmetti was popping champagne over the win, and who could blame him?

"When Biden-era bureaucrats tried to illegally rewrite our laws to force radical gender ideology into every corner of American health care, Tennessee stood strong and stopped them," Skrmetti said. "This decision restores not just common sense but also constitutional limits on federal overreach, and I am proud of the team of excellent attorneys who fought this through to the finish."

Skrmetti hammered home how this would've forced hospitals into sex-segregated space chaos and made states subsidize the whole "gender-affirming" circus via Medicaid. 

The suit had the full Republican AG squad from Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Nebraska, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Virginia, and West Virginia all piling on, because when it comes to fighting federal fairy tales, strength in numbers.Meanwhile, President Trump, never one to let Biden's legacy linger—is on a tear with executive orders to undo the transgender takeover. He's already kicked off a full audit of every Biden move on this front, making sure the madness gets the boot it deserves. 

Score one for sanity, zero for the ideologues.

Netflix Is Turning Kids' Cartoons Into Gender Ideology Boot Camps—And Parents, It's Time to Cut the Cord

Look, if you're a parent in 2025, you're already juggling more digital babysitters than a circus clown has juggling pins. And in this glorious era of "everything, everywhere, all at once" (shoutout to that multiverse movie that gave us Michelle Yeoh -- my surname backwards by the way, kicking butt, unlike Netflix, which is just kicking common sense), keeping tabs on what your kid is inhaling from the screen feels about as doable as herding cats. 

Netflix alone is slinging 2.2 million minutes of content, which shakes out to roughly 36,000 hours of programming. That's enough runtime to binge-watch your way through a solid decade of existential dread. And don't get me started on YouTube: 700,000 hours of uploads every single day. Folks, if that's not a recipe for parental paranoia, then nothing is.

So, yeah, we're not super-humans. We can't pre-vet every TikTok dance, every Fortnite skin, or every episode of whatever pastel-drenched fever dream is trending. That's why we lean on the grown-up guardrails: parental controls, those handy-dandy ratings like TV-Y, Y7, G, or PG. It's not laziness; it's math. Finite parents, infinite content. 

As for me, I cancelled my Netflix account when the company featured "Cuties."

Enter Netflix, where the Vice President of Inclusion Strategy, one Wade Davis, has been turning his social media feed into a personal TED Talk on transgender issues. (Thanks for the headshot, Reuters, looking sharp in that Netflix glow, Wade.) Bless his heart, but when parents spot a TV-Y7 stamp on an animated series, they're not unreasonable for thinking, "Cool, seven-year-olds can handle this without therapy bills piling up." You'd figure topics like sexuality or gender identity would be quarantined to the grown-folks section, right? Wrong. Dead wrong. As in, "Dead End: Paranormal Park" wrong.

This little gem of a kids' show, rated TV-Y7, mind you, drops this bombshell dialogue like it's just another Tuesday:

"It's not the park. It's — it’s me. I'm trans, Norma. And everyone at school knows, and everyone at home knows. And being here? It's like, I can just be Barney, and I can choose if and when I tell people. I've never been happier. And that's saying something when I spent the day chased by terrifying zombie mascots. Pugsy reminded me how important it is to live your life without apology. So, I think I've got to give living here a shot. Don't you?"

"Cuties" ad poster

Once that clip hit the viral scrap heap, the internet's amateur detectives went full Sherlock, torches and pitchforks optional, and unearthed a treasure trove of similar sneak attacks. Take "Transformers EarthSpark" (another Y7 special):

"Hey, it's OK. I know I'm safe when I'm with my friends or other nonbinary people." "Nonbinary?" "People who aren't female or male. Oh, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have assumed ..." "I always knew my pronouns felt right, but ... what a wonderful word for a wonderful experience."

And then there's "Strawberry Shortcake: Berry in the Big City" (straight-up TV-Y, for the toddler set), where Lime Chiffon gets two dads: Banoffee, who's trans, and Raisin Cane, who's nonbinary. Banoffee struts into a drag show and declares, "As a trans berry, I love living out loud as my most authentic self, and I wanted to dress as bold and unique as I am, which, let’s face it, is a tall order."

Now, here's the kicker that makes you want to yeet your router into the neighbor's yard: most of this stuff is ancient history in streaming years. That "Dead End" clip is at least three years old. Heck, a bunch of us culture-war walruses (guilty as charged) didn't even clock it until the show's creator, Hamish Steele, decided to play Twitter provocateur. He fired off a venomous clap-back at British Prime Minister Keir Starmer's tweet about Charlie Kirk's "assassination" (spoiler: it's still fake news, but drama sells). 

Suddenly, boom—spotlight on the skeletons in Netflix's kids' content closet.

These episodes have been marinating in the algorithm for years, skating by on autopilot thanks to those deceptive Y and PG badges of honor. Parents hit play, thinking "harmless fun," and poof, gender theory homework. 

Netflix? Crickets on viewership stats or kid demographics, because transparency is for chumps.

So, the million-dollar question, parents: How many tykes have already mainlined this ideological IV drip? How many are now pondering pronouns over Pop-Tarts, or worse, teetering toward a lifetime of regret-fueled decisions, all because some suits in Silicon Valley decided "entertainment" means embedding activism in your Rugrats reboot? Time to stop the second chances, folks. Cancel that sub, dust off the library card, and remind Big Stream that kids' shows should stick to zombies, not identity crises. Your sanity, and theirs, will thank you.

Family of Would-Be Kavanaugh Assassin Pleads for Leniency Because He’s Now ‘Sophie’

Well here's another example of progressive logic. Nicholas Roske, the guy who rolled up to Justice Brett Kavanaugh's house in 2022 with a gun and some seriously bad intentions, is now begging for a lighter sentence because, well, he's transgender. 

Yes, the man who allegedly plotted to assassinate a Supreme Court justice is now "Sophie," and his family, for some crazy reason, thinks that's a get-out-of-jail-free card. Because nothing screams "leniency" like trying to murder a judge, right?

According to court documents, Roske’s mom found a hospital discharge paper in his suitcase labeled “Sophie Roske.” She told the judge, “This is when several of the pieces of the puzzle started coming together.” Puzzle? Lady, your son showed up armed outside a justice’s home. The only puzzle here is why anyone thinks a new name changes the crime.

The government is pushing for 30 years behind bars, but Roske's defense team, in a September 19 filing, made sure to note he's using female pronouns now. His family is out here writing character references, arguing his new-found "transgender identity" should score him a softer sentence. His mom told the judge, "Since her incarceration, we have been able to have open and honest conversations about her gender identity and how that evolved." Oh, great, so now it’s a therapy session instead of a felony. Aren't women who try to murder people sent to prison?

Roske himself chimed in with a letter to Judge Deborah Boardman, a Biden appointee who, by the way, once blocked parents from opting their kids out of LGBTQ storybook lessons (a ruling the Supreme Court slapped down in July). Roske's excuse is that he was "in the closet" when he planned the hit, so naturally, that makes it less bad. "I am also sorry for contributing to a trend of political violence in American politics," he wrote, adding he was "raised by conservative Christian parents who loved me and still love me." 

So he's implying that we should blame Mom and Dad’s Bible-thumping for my assassination attempt.

He claims he was suicidal, off his meds, and skipping therapy during COVID because virtual sessions weren't his vibe. Then the Dobbs leak happened, and apparently, his "self-esteem was at rock bottom," so he figured, why not take a shot at a Supreme Court justice? Solid logic there, Sophie.

Roske's dad told the judge his kid struggled during COVID, ditched a master's program, and bounced around like a pinball. "One day, she suddenly said she was moving out of the house and into a communal living space,” he wrote. Then it was off to Seattle with "no job or prospects," only to slink back home to substitute teach. His friends say he started dabbling in "nihilistic worldviews" and Googling gems like "Nietzsche quotes" and "nothing is true, everything is permitted." 

Deep stuff for a guy plotting murder.

A friend named John told the judge, "Both of us, on our individual quests for moral truth, have had to confront the ugly hypocrisy that is the American church." He added, "But what I think counts is what she did not do." 

Oh, so we're handing out medals for not killing someone now? Roske's sister, who is gay, of course, says their parents have evolved, attending PFLAG meetings and embracing the rainbow. "While transgenderism is not the same as a gay identity, I have actively see this growth mindset that my parents demonstrated in their relationship with me--transfer over to their acceptance of Sophie," she wrote. She's also worried "Sophie" might end up in a men's prison with “"limited access to gender-affirming care." Because that's the real tragedy here, not the whole assassination plot.

Roske has been on hormones in detention, thanks to a Bureau of Prisons memo green-lighting hormone therapy after a judge blocked a Trump executive order. He says his "whole perspective shifted" when he got to Kavanaugh's neighborhood and realized, oops, judges are "real people too." So he called 911 on himself, standing outside Kavanaugh’s house with a gun, ready to end it all. "I’m out to my entire family now and they have been very accepting," he wrote.

Heartwarming.

Roske pleaded guilty in April, and his sentencing is set for Friday.  

This is the state of our justice system, where a guy can try to kill a Supreme Court justice, then play the trans card and expect a pat on the back. If Judge Boardman buys this sob story, we're in deeper trouble than I thought.

Colorado's transgenderism bill has Orwell rolling in his grave

Parental rights warriors are sounding the alarm on what they’re calling a straight-up "totalitarian" transgenderism bill that just got rammed through the Colorado state House. This thing’s got ‘em worried it could tank parents’ chances in custody battles if they dare "misgender" or "deadname" their kids. Yeah, you heard that right. Dystopian much?

Erin Lee, a fired-up mom from the Centennial State, laid it out plain on Fox News' "The Faulkner Focus" Monday: "This is giving the authority to our state to take our children away if we don’t agree with these gender transitions, so it’s got huge ramifications for all parents, especially those in custody situations who are fighting with their ex-spouses to stop their children from being medicalized." She didn’t hold back,

 adding, "It opens the door for all parents to potentially have their children forcibly removed by the state if they’re not willing to affirm their child’s mental health distress." 

The bill in question, HB25-1312, is a doozy. It slaps state-mandated gender policies on schools and calls it "coercive control" in custody cases if a parent doesn’t play along with their kid’s gender identity. 

Imagine this: the bill flat-out says, "when making child custody decisions and determining the best interests of a child for purposes of parenting time, a court shall consider deadnaming, misgendering or threatening to publish material related to an individual’s gender-affirming health-care services as types of coercive control." 

Dubbed the Kelly Loving Act—named after a transgender man killed in that 2022 Colorado nightclub shooting by a nonbinary gunman—this bill also tells Colorado courts to flip the bird to other states’ laws that yank kids from parents who green-light transgender treatments for minors. It’s a bold Orwellian move, and it’s got people angry.

For moms like Lee and California’s Erin Friday, this isn't just politics—it’s personal. 

Both their daughters went through a phase of identifying as boys, but Lee and Friday held firm, didn’t buy into it, and their girls eventually dropped the transgender label. Friday, who’s been a Democrat her whole life, didn’t mince words: "This bill will not only determine that parents like Erin and I are abusers — both of us had Child Protective Services come to our home when we refused to call our daughter males — but this bill also affects the press and its freedom of the press, and it will require them to use the chosen name of a child, how they choose it, and any adult." 

She’s calling it a "massive First Amendment violation," and she’s not wrong. This thing’s a constitutional gut-punch and like all good communist ideas, it takes parental authority away and gives it to Big Brother,.

Friday’s pushing for a bipartisan rebellion, saying parents gotta hit the courts, the public square, and those legislative hearings hard. She and Lee are crystal clear: the whole “born in the wrong body” idea is nonsense, and they’re not here for it. 

The bill’s now headed to the state Senate, so the fight’s far from over.
Oh, and get this: at a heated hearing last month, some Colorado Democrat had the gall to compare concerned parents to the KKK. Classy move, pal. Stay tuned, ‘cause this one’s gonna get messier than a bar fight on dollar-beer night.

Trump demands Gov. Janet Mills apologize over her transgender stance

President Donald Trump Saturday demanded a "full-throated apology" from Democratic Maine Gov. Janet Mills regarding her stance on transgender athletes and insisted that she must promise not to make another "unlawful challenge" to the government.

"While the State of Maine has apologized for their Governor’s strong, but totally incorrect, statement about men playing in women’s sports while at the White House House Governor’s Conference, we have not heard from the Governor herself, and she is the one that matters in such cases," Trump said on Truth Social.

"Therefore, we need a full throated apology from the Governor herself, and a statement that she will never make such an unlawful challenge to the Federal Government again, before this case can be settled. I’m sure she will be able to do that quite easily," the President added.

Trump made this comment after the University of Maine said that it now complies with the NCAA rules as well as federal and state laws that were changed by Trump's executive order, which reflects reality and with which the majority of normal people agree: prohibiting men with the mental disorder of gender dysphoria to compete against girls in female sports.

The Trump administration said that an investigation determined the university was in violation of Title IX rules banning sex-based discrimination in programs receiving federal funding,  NBC News reported.

The Department of Agriculture had threatened to suspend federal funding to the university. UMS had received almost $30 million in USDA funding during the 2024 fiscal year.

“We are relieved to put the Department’s Title IX compliance review behind us so the land-grant University of Maine and our statewide partners can continue to leverage USDA and other essential federal funds to strengthen and grow our natural resource economy and dependent rural communities through world-class education, research, and extension,” the Dannel Malloy, the system’s chancellor, said in a statement to NBC News.

Last month, Trump and Mills traded barbs during the Governor's Conference over Maine and its state colleges and universities over the issue of barring transgender athletes from participating in girls' and women's sports.

When President Trump told Mills her state's schools and universities had to comply or risk losing federal funding, she told him "We'll see you in court."

He then told her the case "should be a real easy one" and to "enjoy your life after governor because I don't think you'll be in elected politics."

 Mills, a flaming leftist, has not as yet responded to Trump's latest salvo, however, she said, after an investigation was started into the state for allowing transgender athletes to participate, that "[T]his is not just about who can compete on the athletic field, this is about whether a President can force compliance with his will, without regard for the rule of law that governs our nation."

Mills got it wrong: it isn't just Trump's will, it's the will of the majority of Americans and the NCAA agreed too.

Earlier this week, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services said it determined that Maine's educational leadership violated federal law prohibiting sex discrimination by allowing a transgender athlete to be included in women's sports.

The agency's Office for Civil Rights sent warning letters to the Maine Department of Education, the Maine Principals' Association, and Greely High School, stating that the case could be referred to the Department of Justice if the issue is not resolved by next week.

Gov. Mills does not have a school-age female in her family, both immediate and extended. She likely has never needed to see the unfair competition females face against males with gender dysphoria competing against them in sports.

Biden's Dept. of Veterans Affairs provided genital mutilation/transgender procedures despite ban as per documents

For years, the Department of Veterans Affairs thumbed its nose at a rule banning “gender alterations,” turning itself into a one-stop shop for vets looking to play dress-up as the opposite sex. 

Internal documents spill the beans: the VA—yes, the same outfit fitting war heroes with prosthetic limbs—was handing out prosthetic peckers dubbed “3-in-1 (pee/pack/play),” fake boobs, chest binders, wigs, and even dilators for artificial vajayjays.

Federal regulations say “gender alterations” are off-limits for VA medical services. But the VA played word games, claiming that only meant the slice-and-dice surgeries. “Since 2011, VA has provided all medically necessary transition-related care for transgender and gender diverse Veterans except surgeries,” one document brags. Leave it to bureaucrats to dodge a rule by splitting hairs finer than a frog’s butt.

Then the Biden crew took it up a notch, stretching “medically necessary” like a cheap rubber band. Back in 2020, a doctor said hair removal was just cosmetic—no dice. Fast forward to Biden’s watch, and they’re teaching VA staff how to farm out laser jobs to zap hair off a trans veteran’s “face/neck, back, chest, abdomen, or genitalia,” billing it under a sneaky “unlisted procedure code for skin, mucous membrane, and subcutaneous tissue.” 

Slick move, huh?

It gets weirder. The VA even roped in “parking attendants or valets, maintenance staff, [and] housekeepers” for a PowerPoint pep talk, making them “Articulate the key elements of VHA’s Directive on Providing Health Care for Transgender and Intersex Veterans” and coaching them to ask vets, “Hey, what name, gender, and pronoun do you vibe with?”—all so they could bunk them in hospital rooms with whoever matched their fantasy gender.

Cue the Trump administration on Monday, riding in with an executive order titled Defending Women from Gender Ideology Extremism and Restoring Biological Truth to the Federal Government. They’re slamming the brakes on “medical treatments for gender dysphoria,” except for vets already mid-transition at the VA. Before that, Biden’s squad went hog-wild expanding the trans buffet—hormones, voice lessons, egg-and-sperm storage, you name it.

Biden-era papers even teased changing the rules to green-light surgeries, but whined it’d take years. One gem, “Gender-Affirming Care at VA: Resources for Providers,” admits, “While VA cannot provide gender-affirming surgeries at this time,” they’d still slap a gender dysphoria label on veterans, juice ‘em up with hormones, train their vocal cords, yank their body hair, and pen love letters to outside surgeons begging for the chop. 

An April 2024 slide from an “LGBTQ+ Veterans Care Coordinator” adds they’d cover “medically necessary post-operative and long-term care following gender-affirming surgery”—think revision cuts or snipping nuts if the hormone cocktail went sideways.

VA staff got crash courses on “diagnosing gender dysphoria” and “assessment of readiness and consent for hormone therapy,” with tricks to book a “transgender and gender diverse national e-consult” linking local docs to trans “expert hub teams” in Minneapolis and Tucson. One catch: the e-consult screen flashes a warning that “for individuals still active in the military (e.g., Guard, Reserves, Active Duty) transgender identity can be grounds for discharge and their VA medical records are accessible by the military.” 

Whoops.

The VA—whose motto, straight from Abe Lincoln, is “To care for him who shall have borne the battle and for his widow, and his orphan”—even rolled out a “Gender-Affirming Program with Speech (GAPS).” That’s “4-8 individual sessions with a speech-language pathologist” to help dudes sound like dames, “achieving your authentic and affirming voice,” plus tips to keep their laughs, coughs, and sneezes from blowing their cover. Tax dollars hard at work.

They even cranked out form letters to nudge outside docs into doing genital jobs, like this cookie-cutter pitch: “I support (honorific) XXXX’s decision to undergo genital surgery, and I am available for coordination of care.” Just fill in the blank and sign. Another version gushes, “We are of the opinion that [veteran] meets all of the criteria for a vaginoplasty, as set forth in the WPATH Standards of Care, Version 7.” Oh, and veterans could tweak the “birth sex” field on their records too, because “despite the medical implications…this is the Veteran’s right.” Sure, why not?

Monday, Veterans Affairs Secretary Doug Collins dropped the hammer, saying all this nonsense is toast. “I mean no disrespect to anyone, but VA should not be focused on helping Veterans attempt to change their sex,” he said. “The vast majority of Veterans and Americans agree, and that is why this is the right decision.” Cash saved from ditching these “specific medical treatments for gender dysphoria” will now prop up real heroes—think paralyzed vets and amputees—helping them claw back some independence.

“All eligible Veterans — including trans-identified Veterans — will always be welcome at VA and will always receive the benefits and services they’ve earned under the law,” the department swore. “But if Veterans want to attempt to change their sex, they can do so on their own dime.” Bathrooms and rooms? Back to birth sex rules. The VA also torched Veterans Health Administration Directive 1341(4), which propped up this circus.

Here’s the kicker: the VA “has not kept consistent and reliable records” on how many vets got these treatments, how much it cost, or how many staffers were roped in. Best guess? Less than 0.1% of the 9.1 million vets in VA care are trans-identified. Small potatoes, big headache.

Alexandria Obviously-Comatose analyzes Trump's 'They/Them' Transgender Ad

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is the gift that keeps on giving . . .  to the GOP. She is probably one reason the Democrats lost the 2024 presidential election and her appearance on MSNBC with Joy Reid, should dispel any doubts that AOC is not the best the Democrats have to offer.

The Democrat congresswoman who every man wants to date,  'splained why her party fell short of winning the White House and getting another chance to pull the nation even further to the left.

AOC: You know, all of this debate that people are talking about with this woke thing, right? "Oh, my gosh, it's because we care about trans people, that's why there's a backlash."

JOYLESS REID: And by the way, only Donald Trump cared about trans people because he was the one running $130 million worth of ads. The Harris campaign said nothing about this issue.

Reid, as you may know, got in a bit of trouble some years ago after posting anti-gay comments on her Facebook page and later claiming that she was hacked. Yeah, sure.

Anyway, it's beginning to seem like AOC is clueless about the reason her party lost. Of course, Reid too is just as clueless about her party's loss [imagine a so called, self-proclaimed "journalist" towing the party line]. 

The fact is, Kamala Hahaharris highlighted transgenderism during her failed campaign. As Vice President, merely days before announcing her presidential run, she went "Ru Paul's Drag Race" claiming transgenderism was under attack. 

And let's never forget her position on using taxpayer money for sex change operations FOR CONVICTED CRIMINALS AND ILLEGAL ALIENS. Later, she tried to disown it, but we all know she said it as VP.

AOC: That's right, that's right, and listen, it's not even to deny the fact that these ads were effective in certain areas. What I think people are paying too much attention to is the first half of that ad, which says, that said, "Kamala Harris is for they/them." Everyone is focusing on that. They're not focusing on the second half of that ad where he said, "Donald Trump is for you."

REID: Yeah, yeah.

AOC: And Democrats very often, in their messaging, they speak in this, in terms and in concepts, and not in the second person. "I care about you," and political races are not about one candidate vs. another candidate. Too often, it gets pigeonholed like that. It is a race about who cares about you more.

What AOC and Reid are missing is that the ads were very effective because it clearly depicted that the Democrat's position on transgenderism is nuts.

It's clear the left has a problem with their positions on various issues. From boys beating the crap out of girls in sports, to genital mutilation of children who may be confused because their parents confused them, to open borders that seem to welcome criminals. 

But let's not tell that to them.
