(LEX NEWS) — Former Rowan County Clerk Kim Davis is facing new allegations in federal court that she provided false sworn answers while creditors attempted to collect on a judgment exceeding $565,000 stemming from the high-profile same-sex marriage case that drew national attention nearly a decade ago. In a motion filed July 28, attorneys for plaintiffs David Ermold and David Moore allege Davis falsely stated under oath that she owned no property and had not made significant transfers of personal assets. The filing contends public records show Davis inherited interests in multiple parcels of real estate and later transferred those...

When you have been a medical professional, there are a lot of things that you'll never be able to unsee. Things like severe anal lacerations. Things like fungus in places where it should not be. Things like genital warts and sores. Things like diseases such as hepatitis, monkeypox, and full-bore AIDS. Things like balls, beads, and light bulbs shoved up into a person's large intestine. Things like cancers that a normal person would usually be able to avoid having. Things like "meth mouth" caused by selling one's body. Things like walking corpses barely able to stand. Things like depression, of...

A transgender woman who fled the US seeking asylum in the Netherlands now fears she could be 'hurt or killed' after the notorious refugee camp she was placed in became so dangerous that the Red Cross pulled out aid workers. Ter Apel, the Netherlands' largest refugee camp, is home to around 2,000 asylum seekers from across the globe. For years, it has sheltered people fleeing war and persecution, including Eritreans, Somalis and Syrians, who say it remains too dangerous to return home despite the fall of Bashar al-Assad. Now, a new wave has begun arriving: transgender Americans who say they...

“First-of-their-kind” transgender dolls — complete with removable genitalia — will debut in some Minnesota classrooms this fall to kids as young as 4 years old. The paper dolls, with gender-neutral names like “Sam,” “Rory,” “Avery” and “Parker,” have removable internal and external genitals, along with more than 100 interchangeable pieces of clothing, accessories and hairstyles — like a trans Mr./Mrs. Potato Head. The goal is for kids to “learn about the different options that exist for who they can be,” according to a therapist at the University of Minnesota Medical School, which spent over half a decade developing the controversial...

A Finnish politician convicted under "hate speech" law has lodged an appeal with the European Court of Human Rights. The case marks the concluding legal chapter in a seven-year battle over freedom of expression in Europe. Päivi Räsänen, a Finnish MP found guilty of "insulting" a group by Finland's Supreme Court, received her conviction in March 2026 for views on marriage and sexual ethics she had set out in a booklet produced for her church more than two decades ago, in 2004. She was ordered to pay thousands of euros in fines. Alliance Defending Freedom, the legal organisation acting on...

Senate hopeful James Talarico is on the defensive after remarks resurfaced in which he lavished praise on Texas drag queens as "some of the best" in the country. Talarico, the Democrats' nominee in Texas’ hotly contested Senate race, made the comment in May 2023 while criticizing a bill in the state legislature banning "sexually oriented performances" on public property and in the presence of minors — a measure that would have likely restricted some drag shows. He voted "present" on the legislation at the urging of the Texas House LGBTQ Caucus after language explicitly referencing drag performers was stripped from...

Sen. Jon Ossoff (D., Ga.) has spent thousands of dollars in campaign funds on "makeup services" in 2026, and his artist of choice has a long list of Hollywood credits, including The Notebook and The Hunger Games, a Washington Free Beacon review found. Ossoff has paid makeup artist Stephanie Ponder $2,887 for "makeup services" since February, federal campaign finance disclosures show. The most recent payment of $900 came on June 10. An advertisement on the online production crew directory SHOOTS describes Ponder as an Atlanta-based freelancer and member of the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees who offers "Services for...

Sometimes you just have to write what you know and document what you've seen, heard, and metabolized to remind yourself that, no, you haven't gone crazy. Perhaps by spelling it all out and publishing it, the masses might begin to grasp the breadth and scope of a problem they’ve been led to believe is an overblown, remote issue. Tenacious journalist that I am, I'll provide ample receipts proving that the exact opposite is true.Allow me to show you what life in the trans trench has been like for the past decade, with a combination of personal story and indisputable, brute...

Evangelical pastor Jeff Mullen recently posted this open letter to Texas State Rep. James Talarico, who is running for U.S. Senate in the state of Texas. Mullen’s letter addresses fundamental problems with the way Talarico and others interpret Scripture, and he calls Talarico and all of us to come under the authority of God’s Word instead of redefining it to fit our wishes:Dear Rep. Talarico,My name is Jeff Mullen. As a pastor who spent 30 years shepherding God’s people, I have learned that what we believe about God shapes everything else. That is why I am writing this letter.I do...

Dem In Maine Now Famous For All The Wrong Reasons 😉

A trans and intersex activist vying to replace disgraced Maine Senate wannabe Graham Platner as the Democratic candidate has gone viral for their absurd answer about their qualifications in a debate Thursday. Asked by a moderator what qualifies them for the top office, longshot hopeful Ashley Webb responded with a bizarre rambling string of loopy reasons. “I ran for office several times. Didn’t win, but I did run,” Webb chuckled. “And then I’m a songwriter, and then I write my own books, and then I suppose my transparency,” Webb said. “I wouldn’t lie to the people, and I wouldn’t deceive...

This is not a right-wing parody video Toronto Police actually posted this. Toronto authorities thought this video would make us mad. They trotted out Sgt. Rob Chevalier, their "2SLGBTQ" Liaison Officer, with a "sad" story about how he and a gay black dude with fake breasts got made fun of.

Disgraced ex-Rep. Eric Swalwell’s zombie congressional campaign has dwindled to just over $11,000 after he coughed up another $50,000 to celebrity defense attorney Sara Azari and refunded nearly $190,000 to donors following his epic career collapse following sexual assault allegations. The details were documented this week in new federal campaign filings and come as California ethics investigators continue probing more than $300,000 in payments made to Azari from Swalwell’s failed gubernatorial campaign — raising fresh questions about the disgraced Democrat’s mounting legal bills as his political career continues to unravel. Swalwell’s federal campaign filings, which list him as treasurer, paint...

After Finland’s Supreme Court found Päivi Räsänen guilty of “crimes against humanity” for sharing an online Christian pamphlet, Britain canceled her travel authorization, escalating concerns about the future of religious liberty in Europe. [UPDATE] The U.K. is a nation that now allows rapists, murderers, and terrorists to pour across its borders and live permanently in taxpayer-funded homes, but there is one thing that can get someone banned from even setting foot on British soil: “insulting” homosexuals. That’s a lesson that Päivi Räsänen, a member of Finland’s Parliament, recently learned when the U.K. denied her travel visa application.
