The point isn’t just to break down the ‘gender binary.’ It’s to break down the family in order to reshape society. Evidence continues to mount that a concerted effort is underway between major hospitals and public school systems to indoctrinate children with transgender ideology and push harmful, sometimes irreversible, medical procedures on minors — sometimes without the knowledge or consent of parents. The point of the indoctrination, though, isn’t only to create more “gender-nonconforming” students. It’s to break down family structures and parental authority. The goal isn’t simply to teach and encourage transgenderism in our schools. It’s to lay...

A Deltona, Florida man who stalked the six-year-old daughter of his neighbor with creepy promises, like 'I'm going to make you famous,' was arrested on Sunday and charged with aggravated harassment. Mark Greenburg, 55, who lives on Fayson Circle, has racked up 11 complaints over the last eight months from about a dozen neighbors who feared for their children's safety, according to the Volusia County Sheriff's Office.

Burning Man partiers were battered by a huge sandstorm over the weekend that threatened to ruin the finale of nine-day-long Nevada festival as hundreds left early to escape the dust while others strip off in 102F heat. The dust storm hit the Black Rock Desert in Nevada, where it's been held since the early 1990s, on Saturday just before the main Burning Man event on Sunday — where the wooden 'man' effigy is ignited. The week-long festival has long been a tradition, frequented by scantily-clad individuals looking to let loose and soak in the event's characteristically psychedelic atmosphere. Burning Man's...

Judge Cannon also ‘temporarily enjoins’ or forbids the Biden regime from ‘reviewing and using the seized materials’ pending the completion of the review. This decision by the Florida judge enraged the lawless left who is accustomed to running roughshod over the US Constitution in their ongoing attempts to destroy President Donald Trump. Andrew Weissman, the former Justice official who ran the Mueller special counsel and is now a contributor on the fake news channels, suffered a meltdown following the decision. Sal Greco, a politically persecuted and fired NYPD officer, responded to Weissman’s temper tantrum. Via Sal Greco. After violating the...

Fresh off accusing former President Donald Trump and other Americans critical of federal government overreach of being “un-American” simply because they’re opposed to politically-motivated DOJ-approved witch hunts against former presidents, Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.) has moved on to his next target. On Sunday, “X Strategies, LLC” CEO Alex Bruesewitz, a private citizen, had the nerve to criticize Kinzinger on Twitter over his “un-American” accusation toward millions of Americans, calling him out for his double standards in the process. “You praised Joe Biden for calling 75 Million Americans ‘enemies of the state’ but you’re angry that Trump criticized the corrupt &...

Yesterday, Medvedev posted a rant on his messaging app (for some reason) in which he accused the United States and NATO of plotting to “break up” the Russian Federation. But he warned that even if the alleged plot succeeded, the result would be “doomsday,” and any country attempting it would be engaged in a “chess game with Death.” And I think we all know what that means.

The Russians on the "Southern Front" received large reinforcements for half a day via the Crimean bridge The elite Ukrainian units that attempted the "Kherson counter-offensive" for the past six days did not achieve anything, and they paid for that with huge casualties and losses. They briefly took over Blagodatnoe and another smaller settlement and wedged themselves into Russian positions southeast of Suho Stavok, 3-4 kilometers away, but the counterattack was so powerful that they had to return to their starting lines with two captured positions. In the last 24 hours, the Ukris had 230 casualties, and they also lost...

The Biden administration is attempting to turn every VA into an abortion clinic.'WASHINGTON, D.C. (LifeSiteNews) – In what is arguably its most significant pro-abortion action to date, the Biden administration announced Friday that it will expand abortion on demand and pro-abortion counseling through the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), making abortion available for hundreds of thousands of veterans and their beneficiaries, effective immediately, in violation of federal and state laws. The new rule includes a broad, undefined “health” exception that imposes abortion on demand at the VA even in states where abortion is illegal. “Every week Pro-Life states are facing...

On Monday’s broadcast of CNN’s “Situation Room,” CNN Political Commentator and former Obama administration official Van Jones stated that President Joe Biden wants the election “to be a choice between Trump and himself, and not just a referendum on inflation, etc.” And that Biden can tell people, “I’m not just going to write you off” but “That is not coming across yet, and it needs to.” Jones said, “I think he’s trying to do something that’s difficult.

Heavy-handed reform acceleratesVATICAN CITY (ChurchMilitant.com) - Pope Francis is revoking the four high offices of the Knights of Malta and instituting a provisional government, effective immediately.

Twenty-third Sunday in Ordinary Time Luke 6:6–11 Friends, in our Gospel today, Jesus heals a man with a withered hand. As I’ve said many times before, we tend to domesticate Christ, reducing him to a guru or a teacher, one spiritual guide among many. But this is to do violence to the Gospel, which presents him not simply as teacher but as savior. I realize that the culture militates against Christianity at this point, for it steadily teaches the ideology of self-esteem and self-assertion. "I’m okay and you’re okay." "Who are you to tell me how to behave?" But this...
