During an interview with Fox 9 Minneapolis-St. Paul on Tuesday, Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison (D) responded to safety concerns around allowing biological men in women’s sports in light of the Payton McNabb incident and the state’s lawsuit over the Trump administration’s push to keep biological men out of women’s sports by saying that “I’ll leave you and your viewers and other people to discuss what happened in one video.” Host Amy Hockert asked, “What do you think about people like Riley Gaines…girls and women who we’ve seen, sometimes videos are circulated of a volleyball player who has a ball...

On the campaign trail, Donald Trump used contentiousness around transgender people’s access to sports and bathrooms to fire up conservative voters and sway undecideds. And in his first months back in office, Trump has pushed the issue further, erasing mention of transgender people on government websites and passports and trying to remove them from the military. It’s a contradiction of numbers that reveals a deep cultural divide: Transgender people make up less than 1% of the U.S. population, but they have become a major piece on the political chess board — particularly Trump’s. For transgender people and their allies —...

A transgender-identified male was caught on video attacking female Turning Point USA (TPUSA) leaders while they were tabling at the University of Texas in Dallas on Tuesday. Conservative personality and TPUSA founder Charlie Kirk posted footage of the incident to X, showing the male, dressed in women’s clothes, swinging at the students with his bike lock before cycling away: Kirk identified the alleged victims as “Chapter President, Paige Neumann, and her secretary Grace,” writing that the attacker “slammed” the bike lock against Paige’s head “Our Chapter President, Paige Neumann, and her secretary Grace were just assaulted while tabling at the...

She’s puts the “blaze” in trailblazer! The first female FDNY Deputy Chief ever was promoted Friday, as top brass hailed her for “shattering the glass ceiling” in the male-dominated field. Battalion Chief Michele Fitzsimmons — a 24-year veteran who joined the Bravest a few months before 9/11— was named Deputy Chief of fire operations at a packed promotion ceremony in Queens. “I hope that other women who are in the department now can see themselves rising through the ranks,” Fitzsimmons, 55, told reporters after the event at at Queens College. “I also hope that young girls can see themselves as...

A female driver was killed and her passenger seriously injured after they were tossed from a Tesla that flipped and then burst into flames on the FDR Drive in Manhattan early Tuesday, cops said. The Tesla struck a guardrail and flipped on the FDR near 70th Street on the Upper East Side just after 2:30 a.m., the NYPD said — with photos showing huge chunks of the electric vehicle scattered across the road.

The Army is...

National personal injury law firm Pritzker Hageman has assembled an all-female legal team to pursue litigation on behalf of women who developed meningioma tumors after using Depo-Provera birth control injections. Compelling scientific research shows that the extremely high doses of the synthetic progestin hormone in Depo-Provera can stimulate the growth of meningiomas. Depo-Provera was approved for contraceptive use in the United States in 1992, but studies going back to 1983 suggested that levels of synthetic progestin hormones found in Depo-Provera can bind to receptors on meningiomas, accelerating their growth. While these tumors are often called "benign," their location means they...

More Americans are surviving cancer, but the disease is striking young and middle-aged adults and women more frequently, the American Cancer Society reported on Thursday. And despite overall improvements in survival, Black and Native Americans are dying of some cancers at rates two to three times higher than those among white Americans. The shifts reflect declines in smoking-related cancers and prostate cancer among older men and a disconcerting rise in cancer in people born since the 1950s. Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the United States, but the leading cause among Americans under 85. The new report...

Stone Ridge Christian High School, located in Merced, was set to play San Francisco Waldorf in the Northern California Division 6 tournament. San Francisco Waldorf had a bye into the semifinals as it was the No. 1 seed in its bracket. Stone Ridge Christian defeated North Hills Christian.

Former President Clinton said in an interview that aired Sunday that he believes the U.S. is set to have a woman-led executive branch “pretty soon.” “I still think we’ll have a … female president pretty soon,” Clinton said in an interview on “CBS News Sunday Morning” with the outlet’s Tracy Smith. Vice President Harris, who recently lost her bid for the White House to President-elect Trump, would have been the first woman, Black woman and person of South Asian descent to secure the presidency if she had won. Clinton’s wife, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, also would have been...

Vice President Kamala Harris‘ former communications director floated a wild plan to make her the first female commander-in-chief — all President Biden has to do is resign. Jamal Simmons, who served as part of Harris’ team from 2022 until 2023, urged Biden to step aside so that Harris could make history — even despite her massive defeat to President-elect Donald Trump. “Joe Biden has been amazing but he should fulfill one last promise — to be transitional. Biden should resign and make Kamala Harris the first woman president,” Simmons posted on X. “It’d turn [the] tables on Trump, keep Kamala...

Vice President Kamala Harris made waves on the campaign trail when she announced she and running mate Tim Walz were both gun owners in an attempt to paint the Democratic ticket as friendlier toward the Second Amendment. But some women who own guns told Fox News Digital they aren't buying it. "When Kamala Harris started talking about owning a Glock, I felt nothing," said Amara Barnes, founder of Women Gun Owners Association of America. "We all realize that it's pandering and virtue signaling to the right, and she's hoping that we're too dumb not to realize that she is completely...

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) released photos of the Israeli Air Force (IAF) preparing for its overnight mission attacking Iran’s missile sites and air defenses — and the photos included several female pilots and crew members. As Breitbart News reported, the attack came in retaliation for massive Iranian attacks on Israel in April and early October. The strikes appeared to have been limited to military targets, not oil and gas industry sites or nuclear sites.

The upshot is that about one-third of Democratic voters are single women, which helps explain, as the Washington Examiner’s Conn Carroll points out, the 2012 Obama “Life of Julia” cartoons, which showed government helping unattached women through life. In general, women are more risk-averse than men, and thus more supportive of welfare state measures and more reluctant to support military action. They are also, as we have seen on female-dominated campuses, more willing to suppress speech that is seen as irritating or hurtful. “Highly educated women,” as Australian educator Lorenzo Warby writes, “are proving all too willing to trash other...

Abstract The Human Genome Project is an ambitious research effort aimed at deciphering the chemical makeup of the entire human genetic code (i.e., the genome). The primary work of the project is to develop three research tools that will allow scientists to identify genes involved in both rare and common diseases.

Michael Moore has gone full Kamala — declaring “this country is female” and that white males will be “shown the door” come November. In a blog post published Monday titled “Now, We Crush Trump,” Michael Moore spelled out the steps he believes Kamala Harris needs to take in order to ensure electoral victory — namely, to lean heavily on identity politics and fully embrace the anti-Israel left, especially the enormous Muslim population in his native Michigan. Moore made no mention in his essay about Kamala Harris’ record as vice president or as a U.S. senator — her complete failure to...

The Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) is sharply divided over a proposed amendment to ban affiliated churches from allowing women to serve as pastors and elders. A vote on the amendment will take place at the annual SBC meeting this Tuesday. While there is a general theological consensus that senior pastor roles should be exclusively filled by men, opinions vary widely on the broader implications of what is being referred to as the “Law amendment.”The amendment, proposed by Arlington Baptist Church pastor Mike Law, would insert new language into article three of the SBC’s governing document, which outlines the requirements for...
