LONDON (AP) — A High Court judge on Monday upheld the British government’s emergency ban on puberty blockers, saying a study that found “very substantial risks and very narrow benefits” of the treatment supported the restriction as potentially being harmful. Justice Beverley Lang said a review commissioned by England’s National Health Service concluded that gender care is an area of “remarkably weak evidence” and young people have been caught up in a “stormy social discourse.” The group TransActual and a youth who cannot be named under a court order sought to challenge the decision of former Health secretary Victoria Atkins...

This is pure evil. Hezbollah slaughtered these children playing soccer. Look at it. Show everybody. Like Hamas on Oct. 7. Iran is behind all of it. ⚠️⚠️⚠️ GRAPHIC WARNING ⚠️⚠️⚠️

Senator Elizabeth Warren claimed in a Wednesday interview that her former colleague Kamala Harris’ “biggest accomplishment” while serving as vice president was being the first sitting vice president to visit an abortion clinic. Warren made the comment during an interview with CNN anchor Kaitlan Collins, arguing that Harris’ willingness to lean in to issues that were not always comfortable to talk about made her well-suited to her new role as the Democrats’ de facto 2024 presidential nominee.

Adam Kinzinger (Slava Ukraini) 🇺🇸🇺🇦🇮🇱 @AdamKinzinger The Trump campaign and surrogates will try to intimidate Biden supporters from going after the former President politically. Do not let up. Trump is a threat to democracy and he must be stopped.

In May, Vance was among nearly 50 members of Congress added to a long list of lawmakers banned from entering Russia in retaliation for U.S. sanctions imposed on Moscow. "In response to the anti-Russian sanctions regularly introduced by the Biden administration, which are intended, according to Washington's plan, to inflict maximum damage on Russia by personally affecting officials and ordinary citizens of our country, entry into the Russian Federation for 500 Americans is being closed as a countermeasure," Russia's Foreign Ministry said in a statement at the time... It isn't clear why Vance was specifically targeted by Russia in May,...

Tenacious D singer Kyle Gass has been dropped by his talent agency following his tasteless comments about the assassination attempt on former president Donald Trump. The 64-year-old expressed his wish that Trump's would-be assassin hadn't missed during the band's show in Sydney on Sunday. Fellow member Jack Black brought a birthday cake for him and asked him to make a wish and he replied: 'Don’t miss Trump next time.'

Jack Black’s band Tenacious D has cancelled its upcoming gig after United Australia Senator Ralph Babet demanded the band be deported from Australia over an "evil" joke band member Kyle Gass made about the assassination attempt on former president Donald Trump. Gass made the controversial comment during a concert in Sydney on Sunday night which coincided with his 64th birthday. After a cake was brought out for the musician as Black sang ‘Happy Birthday’, Gass was asked to make a wish when he jokingly replied “Don’t miss Trump next time” to shocked laughter and applause. The rockstar’s comment appeared on...

ransomnote: The continuously unsavory Biden Regime created an offensive meme in 2022 and has rehabilitated (memory holed) its past and is instead, bragging about the return of the Dark Brandon meme.First, the 'proud' Biden regime origins of the 'Dark Brandon meme'. Donald Trump Jr.@DonaldJTrumpJrSo Biden's Deputy White House Press Secretary, @Andrewjbates46, is posting literal Nazi memes on Twitter and our corrupt media is completely silent about it. I'm sure that if this was a Trump WH staffer, the media would treat it the exact same way and totally ignore it Jack Poso @JackPosobiec Aug 7, 2022 A Biden staffer tried...

Today, on June 28th, 2024, a significant event occurred in my life that I will always remember. My name is Ryan Samsel, and last night, I witnessed Donald J. Trump’s victory over Joe Biden. As always, I said my nightly prayer and woke up feeling a sense of goodness that I can’t quite explain. Then, someone informed me that the Supreme Court overturned the 1512(c) charges. I was in a state of shock and disbelief, unable to fully comprehend the news. Let me begin by sharing that I have endured immense suffering and hardships throughout this entire ordeal since January...

A top Biden administration health official successfully pressured an international group of medical experts to do away with age limit guidelines for transgender procedures, including gender-changing surgery, for minors, an unsealed court document shows. Adm. Rachel Levine, the assistant secretary for health at the Department of Health and Human Services, feared that the World Professional Association for Transgender Health’s late 2021 draft guidelines would make it difficult for American transgender youth to obtain access to the procedures, according to email excerpts between WPATH members included in an Alabama court filing. WPATH guidance recommended age minimums of 14 for hormone treatment,...

[Catholic Caucus] "He who keeps silent is to be taken as consenting…”The miscarriage of justice in the case of Marko Rupnik—the appalling farce it has been from the start—is sadly not an aberration under Pope Francis. The Rupnik Affair has indelibly stained this pontificate.“Who am I to judge the Rupnik stories?”Pope Francis’s Communicator-in-Chief, Dr. Paolo Ruffini, asked that rhetorical question on Friday in an Atlanta, GA hotel ballroom, in front of journalists, one of whom—Colleen Dulle of America Magazine, it happens—had asked him to explain his dicastery’s rationale for continuing to use reproductions of artwork by a disgraced priest who...

The United Nations Human Rights Council is holding a discussion today (Wednesday) on a report accusing both Israel and Hamas of war crimes. Before the discussion, Meirav Leshem Gonen, the mother of 23-year-old Romi Gonen, told the council members that there is only one side they should be on, the side that opposes the kidnappers and rapists of Hamas. Leshem Gonen emotionally described how she was forced to listen to her daughter's kidnapping over the phone. "I'm the mother of Romi Gonen, a 23-year-old woman who was hunted by Hamas terrorists on October 7, 2023," she said. "Trying to escape...

Ukrainian families are demanding answers from Zelensky's government about their dead family members. This is darker than we imagined.

Joe Biden couldn’t even wait 24 hours before publicly gloating about the history-making criminal conviction of former president Donald Trump. Under the guise of announcing a proposed ceasefire agreement in the Israel-Gaza war, Biden took to a podium in the White House state dining room at 1:30 p.m. on Friday. He began his statement not with details of the peace plan but rather with a lecture about how the “rule of law” prevailed in Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s case against Trump. “Donald Trump was given every opportunity to defend himself,” Biden said of his 2024 Republican presidential rival. “And...

President Joe Biden flashed a smug, toothy grin after a reporter asked him about former President Donald Trump considering himself a political prisoner at the hands of Biden and his cronies. “Can you tell us, sir — Donald Trump refers himself as a political prisoner and blames you directly. What’s your response to that, sir?” a reporter asked Biden after the 81-year-old concluded his remarks on Friday in which he defended the conviction of Trump. The reporter asked the question as Biden began to walk away after concluding his address. But after the question was posed, Biden stopped in his...

First Lady Jill Biden said Wednesday on ABC’s “The View” that American voters will choose “good” President Joe Biden over “evil” former President Donald Trump. Biden said, “We are in a better place now, and what you’re saying is true, and we have to get that message out. Every vote counts. This election is important, and so we are going everywhere. We’re meeting people where they are. We’re meeting them in person. We’re meeting them over the TV. We’re meeting them in social media. we’re not taking anything for granted, because Joe has done amazing things for this country, and...

This is not funny. A 16-second video featuring a woman dancing is gaining traction online. No, not because she was in a scandalous outfit or was an incredible dancer, but because she captioned the video: “my fetus dancing right before it was aborted.” Yes, these kind of people exist. The video was originally posted by a girl who goes by the user name “abortioncounselor.” Her bio on TikTok reads “that girl that gets abortions.” Her whole account is flooded with pro-abortion messaging from evil jokes to personal experiences and stories from the numerous abortions the woman has received. The woman...

In the first part of this article, we noted that God has created everything. Nothing exists without Him. This position is clearly supported in the Scriptures just as the case for His omnibenevolent, omniscient, and omnipotent nature is also supported. These are matters which are beyond question if one studies and accepts the Scriptures responsibly. All that being so, it’s tempting to feel that if an omnipotent, omniscient, and omnibenevolent God really exists, then evil should not. If God is who the Bible claims He is, then how does evil fit in? This awkward truce of disparate truths is not...

Part 1: An Apparent Contradiction of Logic An unsettling question may arise when one ponders the implications of John 1:3 which states, “All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being.” That unsettling question is, “Did God create evil?” Let’s step back a few paces to get a big-picture view. After each sequence of bringing the heavens and earth into existence in Genesis chapter 1, God considered His creative work to be good. Over and over, it is repeated, “And God saw that it was good.” The point is...

Joe Biden has been called as a waxworks effigy of a president, sock puppet, bobblehead and so forth. Those descriptions are all valid, but there’s a better way to view the Delaware Democrat now occupying the White House. Consider the experience of the composite character president David Garrow charted in Rising Star: The Making of Barack Obama. During Obama’s eulogy of Nelson Mandela on December 10, 2013, South African interpreter Thamsanqa Jantjie, only a few feet away, was signing “nonsense” and “gibberish.” Bruno Druchen, director of the Deaf Federation of South Africa (DFSA) told reporters the man was a “fake,”...
