A Maine woman might be facing serious consequences after her viral Facebook posts encouraging violence against President Donald Trump and his supporters. JoAnna St. Germain, an English teacher at Waterville Senior High School, is gaining significant attention online after sharing a troubling message on Facebook. The posts were first discovered by the Maine Wire. St. Germain wrote the following in an April 29th post: "The Secret Service has the perfect opportunity, if they choose to step up and take it. You are the ones with power. Coordinate. Take out every single person who supports Trump’s illegal, immoral, unconstitutional acts. Look...

A trans-identified male quietly dominated his age category at a national swimming championship held in Texas over the weekend, prompting concern from women’s rights groups. Ana Caldas, formerly known as Hugo Caldas and Hannah Caldas, took home multiple titles at the event.

Of all the things we have to blame the COVID-19 lockdowns of 2020-21 for, perhaps the most unexpected is that some desperate people used them as a handy opportunity to begin having sex with trees. In 2020, a 45-year-old Canadian “somatic sex educator” named Sonja Semjonova was going out on her daily walk permitted to her by the Trudeau Taliban, when she came across (perhaps even literally) a giant oak tree by the side of a path in British Colombia. Perceiving “a connection” with the tree, Sonja began to “lie against it” loving the “feeling of being tiny and supported...

VIDEOIf anyone out there has the slightest doubt that absurdly wearing a mask outdoors in the year 2025 is clear proof of mental illness, then this video will remove all doubt. The only upside for the clown wearing the mask is that it keeps this GroupThink Enforcer from being easily identified thus sparing him from well deserved humiliation when he is out in public. Even wearing a mask outside in 2024 as well as the year before that are also signs of severe mental illness.

According to ShoutYourAbortion.com (yes, that is a real website), women who want children are the abnormal ones. For example, Syd, who identified herself as a convert to Catholicism, wrote, “Thanks to my abortion, I will have a future.” Another wrote, “Abortion gave me a chance to focus on my own life.” An anonymous college student stated, “My future was worth it, and I am more than just a vessel to produce new life.” She then compared her baby to a tumor standing between her and her career. This website is among the legacies of a society now well into its...

Statistics recently released in the Netherlands show that euthanasia rates in the country were 10% higher in 2024 over the previous year, including a shocking 60% rise in deaths for psychiatric reasons. The regional euthanasia review committee (RTE) released the 2024 figures, which show that there were 9,958 euthanasia deaths in 2024, up from 9,068 in 2023. Of those people, 219 died for psychiatric reasons, up from 138 in 2023. It was this number — a 60% increase — that spurred the RTE to urge caution. “Are we still doing this right?” questioned Jeroen Recourt, RTE’s president. “I welcome social...

A second federal judge on Friday temporarily blocked President Trump’s ban on transgender troops. In January President Trump signed the “Restoring America’s Fighting Force” executive order and the “Prioritizing Military Excellence and Readiness” executive orders, which direct every element of the U.S. military to “operate free from any preference based on race or sex” and root out gender insanity and made up pronoun usage, respectively. US District Judge Benjamin Hale Settle in Washington State, issued a nationwide preliminary injunction on Thursday evening. Judge Settle, a George W. Bush appointee, said the Trump DOJ’s arguments have not been persuasive.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — President Trump is vowing a new approach to getting homeless people off the streets by forcibly moving those living outside into large camps while mandating mental health and addiction treatment — an aggressive departure from the nation's leading homelessness policy, which for decades has prioritized housing as the most effective way to combat the crisis. "Our once-great cities have become unlivable, unsanitary nightmares," Mr. Trump said in a presidential campaign video. "For those who are severely mentally ill and deeply disturbed, we will bring them to mental institutions, where they belong, with the goal of reintegrating them...

A video collection of women with TDS. Starting with one woman who thinks Trump wants to bring back segregation.

There's nothing funny about mental illness. It is estimated more than one in five U.S. adults live with a mental illness, 59.3 million in 2022 or 23.1% of the U.S. adult population, according to the National Institute of Mental Health. Five Republicans in the Minnesota Senate want to add "Trump derangement syndrome" to the state's definition of mental illness. What is Trump derangement syndrome? "Trump derangement syndrome is a derogatory term used to describe a form of toxic criticism and negative reaction to former President Trump’s statements and political actions," according to Alex Pattakos for Psychology Today in 2024. "Signs...

Researchers across the United States and beyond who study transgender health are learning that their National Institutes of Health (NIH) grants are being abruptly canceled. Two such killed grants were revealed on Monday and Science has now identified another 14 focused on transgender human health that, on 28 February, were terminated by way of a letter from NIH saying each project “no longer effectuates agency priorities.” ...[T]he agency placed seven employees on administrative leave this week—all of whom had formerly worked in NIH’s defunct Sexual and Gender Minority Research Office (SGMRO). They had been reassigned under former President Joe Biden’s...

A mob of trans rights activists decided to protest a community education council meeting by performing an out-of-rhythm version of the Macarena. The group of about 100 people descended on the Community Education Council for District 2 meeting in Manhattan, New York on February 26, and were caught on video silently performing the 90s dance hit as a woman spoke out against female athletes having to compete against biological males, according to the New York Post. 'I am here to speak up for the female athletes who are intimidated by this nonsense that is occurring behind me, all the dancing...

Transgender actress Karla Sofía Gascón reflected on her own mental health struggles after controversial tweets resurfaced during the peak of awards season. Gascón, the first openly trans actor to be nominated for an Academy Award, faced an onslaught of backlash after old social media posts about George Floyd and Islam came to light. While the "Emilia Pérez" actress repeatedly apologized for the tweets and ditched X at the time, she was mostly phased out of Netflix's Oscar campaign, only to appear once again in public to attend the Academy Awards as a nominee.

Who are those people, I wondered Tuesday night, as I watched the Democrats sit on their hands when brain cancer victim 13-year-old Devarjaye “D.J.” Daniel was recognized as an honorary Secret Service agent? But that was only one moment in a litany of similar nauseating reactions, or lack thereof, during President Trump’s first address to Congress for his second term. And that’s not counting Al Green’s sad acting out that resulted in his ejection. Mr. Green needs help but is unlikely to get it. I had to shake myself to remember I was once a Democrat in what seems like...

On Jan. 28, when I read the executive order from the White House: PROTECTING CHILDREN FROM CHEMICAL AND SURGICAL MUTILATION, I was shocked. Mutilation. That word, it stung. I panicked. I contacted our child’s gender clinic doctor and learned that they were already fighting to keep their doors open.

A new Pentagon memo — dated Wednesday — ordered the removal of all gender dysphoric and self-described transgender servicemembers from the United States military. The document, entitled “Additional Guidance on Prioritizing Military Excellence and Readiness,” said that the “medical, surgical, and mental health constraints on individuals who have a current diagnosis or history of, or exhibit symptoms consistent with, gender dysphoria are incompatible with the high mental and physical standards necessary for military service.” The new Defense Department policy described in the memo said that those who “have a current diagnosis of” or exhibit “symptoms consistent with” gender dysphoria are...

A New Hampshire woman was arrested on Friday after police found footage of her urinating on food products at a local grocery store among a trove of online videos documenting similar disgusting acts dating back four years. Kelli Tedford, 23, allegedly tainted a slew of products at Monadnock Food Co-op in New Hampshire with her urine — costing the grocery store roughly $1,500 for the ruined products and cleaning expenses, the Keene Police Department said in a press release. The grocery store also had to issue a recall for its organic quinoa, cornmeal, polenta, coconut shreds and raw walnuts after...

The Seattle homeless population is the tragic result of failed policies. But it’s not just a problem — it’s a manufactured disaster, enabled and exacerbated by left-wing policies that have done nothing but invite more homelessness while refusing to address its root causes. A new study from the Discovery Institute’s Fix Homelessness explains how dire the situation truly is in Seattle. The study lays out in devastating detail how Seattle’s approach has not only failed but made everything worse. The city’s leaders, obsessed with progressive ideology over practical solutions, have created a system that draws homeless individuals from outside the...
