TUCKER, Ga. — A transgender woman said a DeKalb County Police officer accosted her after she used the women’s restroom at Tucker-Reid H. Cofer Library. The police department has opened an Internal Affairs investigation into the incident, according to a police spokesperson. “Because the investigation is ongoing, we are unable to share additional details at this time,” the spokesperson said. “The department remains dedicated to treating all members of our community with dignity, respect, and professionalism.”

A gym in Los Angeles terminated the membership of a woman who complained about a man using the women's locker room. Tish Hyman posted on X about the experience of having a man follow her into the women's room and call her a "*****," only to have her gym membership canceled. On Sunday, Hyman posted, "Today he saw me walk into the women’s room followed me in and called me a *****. I ran out into the locker room crying and screaming. This is why we can’t be quiet because people need to know what’s happening. Thank you to the...

HOUSTON, Texas — A Mexican man who allegedly entered the U.S. illegally is accused of secretly recording women in a Houston-area brewery. Immigration officers placed a detainer on him due to his status. Houston police detectives arrested Edrie G. Vierya, 40, this month for the alleged secret recording of a woman in the bathroom of the Bad Astronaut Brewery in July 2024, Fox 26 Houston reported. The complaining witness told the local Fox News affiliate that Vierya tried to record her by sliding his phone under the stall door. “It was a very private moment that was no longer private,”...

“I am here to break the law,” Marcy Rheintgen said after being given a trespass warning. A transgender woman was arrested last month for refusing to leave the women's restroom at the Florida State Capitol. Marcy Rheintgen, a 20-year-old college student, said she acted intentionally to challenge Florida's antitrans bathroom law. Passed in 2023, the Safety in Private Spaces Act criminalizes an individual for refusing to leave a restroom or changing area assigned to the opposite sex when asked to by a government employee. Currently, 13 states have passed policies relating to transgender bathroom use, but only two states, Florida...

Payton McNabb, the woman seriously injured in high school by a transgender athlete, has been expelled from her college sorority after she spoke out about a male using the women’s bathroom at her school. McNabb says she received a letter from Delta Zeta, which claims she was ousted from the organization for “bullying” a transgender person by taking video and posting it to her social media when she was confronted by the trans person inside the bathroom at Western Carolina University. On Friday, McNabb told her followers that she was kicked out of her sorority last year for “stating the...

A man using the girls bathroom at Western Carolina University. Unreal

A cruel government official absolutely brutalized and devastated some journalists this week, in a horrifying showdown that the New York Times op-ed writer M Gessen bravely describes this morning: Shortly before allowing reporters into the main chamber of the Supreme Court for oral arguments in United States v. Skrmetti, a court employee asked us all if we needed to use a bathroom. The men’s room was right next door, the staff member said, and the women’s room down the hall. “Where should nonbinary people go?” one of the reporters asked. An uncomfortable back-and-forth followed. The staff person seemed not to...

Transgender activists broadcast their intrusive takeover of at least one women’s bathroom on Capitol Hill on December 5. The transgender takeover marked an escalation by the mostly male movement in their campaign to demand access to spaces that are used by women to guard their sexual privacy and career opportunities in a diverse society. The activists were later constrained by the U.S. Capitol policy, according to a tweet shared by Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC). She has recently pressured GOP leaders to recognize that incoming House Democratic Rep. Sarah McBride is a man, despite establishment media support for his claim of...

A transgender activist interrupted an event featuring Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC), and upon his forced exit, Mace made it clear that God loves him but “his penis is not going to be in my bathroom.” Video shows the transgender activist — a man wearing a skirt — standing up during the event — Georgetown University’s “Summit on the Future of the Internet” — holding a “Progress Pride” flag, which includes additional colors for transgender individuals and minorities. “This is ridiculous. It is the day after Trans Day of disability,” he said, before accusing Mace and those who believe like her...

Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.) has unwittingly issued a major self-own, as he self-righteously announced that a “transgender” representative can use his bathroom. Of course, all Republicans wanted was for the biological man to use a man’s restroom. Thank you, John Fetterman. House Speaker Mike Johnson has banned biological men from women’s bathrooms at the Capitol, which outraged the first “transgender” elected to Congress, Tim “Sarah” McBride, who thinks slapping on some lipstick and high heels should allow him to invade women’s privacy and use their facilities. On Wednesday, Fetterman posted his response, showing his integrity has gone down the toilet,...

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene🇺🇸 @RepMTG Here’s my women’s bathroom proposal: Instead of making a trans bathroom, we should make a Republican women’s bathroom and a Democrat women’s bathroom, so all the Democrat women who agree with men using the women’s bathroom can share their bathroom with the mentally ill trans biological men that they support. But NO biological men, no matter what level of dress up they play, are allowed in the Republican women’s bathroom. 9:21 AM · Nov 20, 2024 · 1.6M Views

When Representative-elect Sarah McBride, a Delaware Democrat, won her race for the House this month, becoming the first openly transgender person elected to Congress, she knew she would face attacks from hard-right Republicans over her identity. She just didn’t expect they would start before she had even been sworn in. In Washington this week for new member orientation, Ms. McBride was still sitting through mandatory cybersecurity trainings, setting up her payroll, selecting district offices and learning how to introduce a bill when her new Republican colleague, Representative Nancy Mace of South Carolina, announced plans to introduce a measure to bar...

A trans war has broken out on Capitol Hill after a Republican lawmaker proposed a measure that would block the first transgender member of Congress from using biological women's restrooms in the U.S. Capitol. Rep. Nancy Mace is pushing for the new rule ahead of the arrival of Congresswoman-elect Sarah McBride, who will take office in January as the first openly-trans lawmaker in the United States. McBride blasted Republicans after the proposal, claiming they were using it as a 'distraction' tactic. 'This is a blatant attempt from far right-wing extremists to distract from the fact that they have no real...

An illegal alien is accused of spying on girls by looking under stalls in a Walmart bathroom in D’Iberville, Mississippi. Jesler Jairo Perez, a 20-year-old illegal alien from Guatemala, was arrested this month by the D’Iberville Police Department and charged with three counts of voyeurism. According to police, three young girls were in a Walmart bathroom when they noticed Perez in a stall. The girls told police that Perez was seemingly looking from under his stall into their stalls.

Racist and hateful graffiti including multiple swastikas and a school-shooting threat were found on the wall of an elite Manhattan high school last week, authorities said Monday. The disturbing graffiti included the messages “I Hate Blacks” and “I will shoot up the school,” cops said. They were found on a restroom stall at The Beacon School on West 44th Street near 11th Avenue in Hell’s Kitchen on Thursday, cops said. The NYPD’s Hate Crime Task Force is investigating the troubling vandalism, and no arrests had been made by Monday evening, police confirmed.

Recently, the city of Portland, Oregon, exhibited a moment of sanity when city officials decided to reverse a law they had enacted in 2020 that basically decriminalized all drugs. The results of that law were extremely predictable (everyone did, in fact, predict it). Crime escalated, drug use became rampant, overdoses soared, and the city descended even further into chaos than it already had. But if you were fooled into thinking that Portland may have regained a modicum of common sense, you can rest easy: it has not. Yesterday, independent journalist Andy Ngô broke the news that a Portland area woman...

A menstrual product dispenser was recently torn off the wall of a boys’ bathroom at Brookfield High School in Connecticut. In a statement, the Brookfield superintendent relayed the news but reiterated that the school would keep following the law, which states that such dispensers must be placed in certain areas, NBC Connecticut reported Thursday. The outlet said, “It’s all part of a new state law that goes into effect this fall. Local and regional boards of education shall provide free menstrual products in women’s restrooms, all-gender restrooms and in at least one men’s restroom for 3rd to 12th grade students.”...

Utah Gov. Spencer Cox signed a pair of this legislative session's most controversial bills Tuesday night. The move effectively ends diversity, equity and inclusion programs in state-owned schools, and bans transgender people from accessing restrooms that differ from their biological sex except in certain circumstances in state-owned buildings. "We want public facilities that are safe and accommodating for everyone and this bill increases privacy protections for all," Cox said in a statement, explaining his reason for signing HB257. The bill requires more unisex and single-stall facilities to be created in public buildings and only allows transgender people to use gender-specific...

In a rapid legislative progression, the Utah House of Representatives has passed HB 257, a contentious bill that, if signed into law by Republican Gov. Spencer Cox, would become the first anti-LGBTQ+ bathroom ban of the year. The bill aims to stop transgender students from using restrooms and locker rooms that align with their gender identity, as well as restrict access to changing rooms in government-owned or operated facilities for transgender people of all ages. Human Rights Campaign president Kelley Robinson expressed her strong opposition to the bill in a statement. “This bill is an invasion of the privacy of...
