    Airyn De Niro, the daughter of Robert De Niro, has revealed she is a transgender woman and opened up about her journey. Airyn was born in 1997 during De Niro’s relationship with her mother, Toukie Smith. She also has a twin, Julian De Niro. Despite her father’s status as an A-lister, Airyn has kept herself out of the limelight until recently, when recent tabloid articles accused her of nepotism, which she has denied in a new interview. Speaking to Them, Airyn said: “Not only did they get information wrong about me… They just sort of reminded me that people really...
  • New mom kicked out of running club over trans controversy: ‘Antithesis of why I signed up’

    A decade ago, if a woman ran a sub-three-hour Boston Marathon only six months after giving birth, she was pretty much guaranteed a fawning spread in a fitness magazine. But last week, only days after running the vaunted race in 2:50:04, new mom Natalie Daniels was booted from her running club in the DC metro area. The reason? She spoke up about fairness in women’s sports. Daniels doesn’t believe that trans runners should take up women’s spots in races — especially in Boston, which caps the number of marathon participants

    Robert De Niro’s daughter is speaking her truth. At 29, Airyn De Niro is coming out as a trans woman and discussing the surprising motivation that led her to follow through with her gender journey, which included beginning hormone therapy last November. Speaking candidly with Them in her first-ever interview, the movie star’s daughter, whom he shares with ex Toukie Smith, shared that Halle Bailey’s “The Little Mermaid” in 2023 had a huge impact on her. In the article, De Niro said the turning point came when she made her first appointment at a black hair salon after seeing Bailey...

    “Deranged” doesn’t even begin to cover the LGBTQ++ qweirdos anymore.According to a new item by Reduxx journalist Amy Hamm, a diaper-wearing pervert has just won a years-long court battle to force his health insurance provider to cover the cost of a very “unique” surgery: he’s keeping his penis, but he’s adding a fake “neo-vagina” between his male appendage and his…waste hole.I’m assuming that means he’s lopping off his testes? Blech, who knows.Allow me to emphasize something though: this is a man who wears diapers, sitting in his own excrement from time to time, and now he’s adding a new bacteria...

    JK Rowling has launched a blistering attack on “coward” Sir Keir Starmer after his U-turn on trans rights. The Prime Minister backtracked on his previous claim that “trans women are women” after a landmark Supreme Court judgment. Sir Keir, who once suggested some women can have penises, declared that a woman is an “adult female”. In a post on X, the Harry Potter author said: “Imagine being such a coward you can only muster the courage to tell the truth once the Supreme Court has ruled on what the truth is.” It comes after the UK’s top court last week...

    The UK Supreme Court's landmark ruling limiting the definition of a woman to biological sex stirred outrage among the stars of BBC’s "RuPaul’s Drag Race UK," who pledged to "fight back" against the decision they say will "marginalize" the transgender community. "The fight back starts today," season one runner-up Divina De Campo wrote in an X post last Wednesday, adding, "We will not go back into the shadows to make you comfortable. F--- all the way off." LGBTQ+ news outlet PinkNews reported on season two finalist Tayce's rage expressed through Instagram with posts calling the UK Supreme Court a "POS...

    Colorado Democrat Gov. Jared Polis signed legislation formally repealing the state’s long-unenforced ban on recognizing same-sex “marriage,” a largely-symbolic gesture for LGBT “equality” ensuring the state status quo would remain if the national one changed in the future. Senate Bill 24-014 strikes from the Colorado legal code language stating marriages can only be recognized as valid if “between one man and one woman.” It passed the state House 45-14 and the state Senate 29-6 and was signed into law on April 7. The statutory repeal follows a ballot initiative that passed last November removing the traditional definition of marriage from...

    Canadian media reported this week that immigration attorneys and LGBTQQIAAP2S+ activists have noticed a significant spike in the number of requests for information from Americans identifying as transgender seeking to move to Canada, claiming persecution under the administration of President Donald Trump. The Globe and Mail quoted multiple Canadian lawyers on Tuesday who said they were “overwhelmed” by the number of calls from alarmed transgender Americans seeking a way to claim political asylum in Canada. Some calls are also from parents whose children are being subjected to medical procedures in response to alleged gender dysmorphia, which the Trump administration has...

    The transgender movement and their allies are angry that their agenda across the country is losing ground. Their full-court strategy – reiterated on this past Monday’s “Transgender Day of Visibility” – is to claim as loudly as possible that they are being attacked. Americans have had enough of the transgender agenda, particularly targeting children. We’re all familiar with the trans outrages, including: - Radical gender ideology in nearly every grade - Transgender-themed library books and other material - Secret transgender “counseling” of confused children - Organized school events (GLSEN, GSA, etc.) in schools pushing “gender” propaganda - Children encouraged to...

    They’ve filed complaints with the Department of Education Local parents who opted their kids out of a student survey about sexual activity and gender activity are “livid” after the district still gave the survey to them. Burlington parents have now filed complaints with the U.S. Department of Education in the wake of survey-gate, claiming the district violated the “Protection of Pupil Rights Amendment” by giving the questionnaire to students against their parents’ wishes. The controversial survey last month that was given to both middle and high school students in Burlington Public Schools had questions about: sexual intercourse, sexual orientation, gender...

    Governor Janet Mills (D-ME) said Monday on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” that President Donald Trump is not the law and his administration’s actions were “not rational” while discussing their transgender athletes dispute. Mills said, “Very unexpectedly the president called on me to answer a question that was unrelated to the topic at hand. I’ve been to the White House and talked to President Trump before, President Biden, President Obama, several presidents, always been a good conversation, exchange of ideas. This was different, very different, and when he said, ‘I am the law,’ basically, ‘we are the law,’ my jaw dropped, and...

    Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton’s office has launched a crackdown on male athletes in girls’ sports after a Dallas Independent School District (ISD) official was caught on video promoting “loopholes” to violate state laws. On Friday, Paxton’s office announced that Dallas ISD has agreed to an order to ensure the district is not violating state law by allowing male athletes to claim they’re “transgender girls.” The agreement comes after Paxton requested records from Dallas ISD in February. Paxton made the request after a video emerged showing a school district official explaining “loopholes” to a parent. The officials told the parent...

    Community organizations and county services have lost funding after the federal government began to cut $11 billion from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. On Tuesday, the Trump administration eliminated multiple agencies and laid off 10,000 workers with HHS, according to The Associated Press. These cuts have affected several programs in the region, including the Sacramento LGBT Community Center and county programs.

    A Colorado state lawmaker is likening parental rights groups opposed to a bill that, if passed and signed into law, could lead to removing children from their parents' custody if they oppose trans medicalization. The lawmaker said such parents were akin to the KKK. Colorado Republican state Rep. Jarvis Caldwell shared audio from an April 1 Colorado House of Representatives Judiciary Committee meeting where lawmakers were debating House Bill 25-1312. The bill has wide-ranging implications and is designed to give wide deference to several aspects of LGBT ideology, specifically by directing courts to take a parent’s willingness to embrace their...

    Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has launched an investigation into USA Fencing over the disqualification of a female participant who refused to compete against a transgender opponent. The incident went down on March 30 at a USA Fencing-sanctioned regional tournament in Maryland, but Paxton has nonetheless issued a ‘Civil Investigative Demand’ over potential violations to Texas law. As Paxton described in his statement, Stephanie Turner was disqualified by USA Fencing for ‘bravely taking a knee instead of competing against a biological male.’ Turner was set to face Redmond Sullivan, who is reportedly transgender. The investigation will uncover documents related to...

    The Center for Innovative Public Health Research uses taxpayer dollars for deviant projects. For nearly a decade, the federal government has funded a nonprofit group that works to educate minors about sex toys, while discouraging them from telling their parents about it. The Center for Innovative Public Health Research has received more than $22 million in federal money since 2016. According to its website, the group creates “health education programs” that “promote positive human development.” But the content of those programs—and the comments of the organization’s CEO, Michele Ybarra—suggest that CIPHR’s “human development” goals are anything but positive.

Since Jan. 20, the Trump administration has rolled back DEI programs in the federal government and frozen grants. The president also signed an executive order declaring that the U.S. government will only recognize two genders: male and female. "We have had to go back into our federal contracts," said Daniel Molloy of Pridelines, an LGBTQ community center. "We've had to go back into our state contracts. And redact any mention...
