Seven major school districts in New Mexico responsible for thousands of children have policies to help them change sex identity in class without their parents finding out, DailyMail.com can reveal. Parents Defending Education (PDE), a conservative campaign group, uncovered details of the stealth transgender policies from public records requests. The unearthed documents show how teachers are directed to help trans students change their names, pronouns, clothing, and sex identity at school, without their parents' knowledge. Trans activists say such guidelines are vital, as some kids need protection from old-fashioned moms and dads who won't accept their desire to change sex....

Montana Governor Greg Gianforte blasted a unanimous decision rendered Wednesday by the Montana Supreme Court that struck down the Parental Consent for Abortion Act of 2013, eroding parental rights for the medical care of their minor children. “As a strong defender of parental rights, I’m deeply concerned and disappointed by today’s ruling from the Montana Supreme Court, which states parents do not have a fundamental right to oversee the medical care of their young daughters,” Gianforte said. “In its ruling, the Court has wielded its gavel like a hammer against one of the fundamental rights in our history: the right...

Hundreds of girls aged 12 and under have had 'top surgery' to remove their breasts in the US since 2017, data suggests. And more than 6,000 girls aged 13 to 18 had the 'gender-affirming' surgeries in that time, according to an analysis seen by DailyMail.com. High profile Democrats, including Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear, had previously claimed sex change surgeries 'don't happen' on children. Researchers at the conservative Manhattan Institute think-tank carried out what they call the biggest ever analysis of transgender care for minors, reviewing more than 4 billion insurance claims from 155 million people between 2017 and 2023. Overall,...

This is appalling and so incredibly sad. The @ManhattanInst and @LeorSapir report: Based on national insurance database that from 2017-2023, there were 5,288 to 6,294 gender-transition double mastectomies in minors in the US. This includes 50-179 children who were 12.5 or younger at the time of the surgery. State bans… pic.twitter.com/axDGnkeOrx — Benjamin Ryan (@benryanwriter) August 12, 2024 This means thousands of young girls had perfectly health breasts removed, forever altering their bodies and their lives. What happens if they decide they're not trans? That happens not infrequently. Where do they go to get their bodies back? This is abhorrent....

A Colorado couple has sued a school and state officials after a counselor helped their 14-year-old daughter become a boy in class while keeping them in the dark. The parents, who are called John and Jane Doe in court papers, say Brighton High School, in the Denver suburbs, helped the anxious and depressed teen transition without notifying them. A counselor even connected the girl to a therapist, who was themselves trans, and suggested the girl take cross-sex hormones and have her breasts surgically removed.

In 2014, Susan Stryker, an MTF transgender Professor Emerita of Gender and Women’s Studies from the University of Arizona, published an essay entitled “My Words to Victor Frankenstein above the Village of Chamounix: Performing Transgender Rage.”* In it, Stryker declares, “I am a transsexual, and therefore I am a monster.” Stryker, identifies with the monster in Mary Shelley’s 1818 novel Frankenstein, whose war against his maker leaves a trail of carnage and death. Stryker seeks to detonate his “rage and revenge” against “the naturalized heterosexual order,” against “traditional family values,” and against the “hegemonic oppression” of God’s creation by sabotaging...

Democratic vice presidential candidate Tim Walz has faced multiple lawsuits for allegedly infringing on religious liberty during his time as Minnesota governor. Walz encountered legal challenges for lockdown policies that religious organizations argued were discriminatory, placing stricter requirements on churches than businesses. He also encountered pushback after signing a law that stripped faith-based schools of funding for a program that offers free college credits to high school students. Walz determined in a May 13, 2020, executive order that retailers would be allowed to reopen at 50% capacity, but left religious gatherings capped at ten people. After Catholic and Lutheran churches...

Vice President Kamala Harris’ newly announced running mate — Democratic Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz — signed a bill in April of 2023 allowing the state to make custody determinations if a child is denied access to sex-change procedures. The “Trans Refuge Bill” allows for “temporary emergency jurisdiction” if a parent denies their child sex-change procedures, according to the bill’s text. The bill defines the interventions, which include sex-changes, hormone replacement and cosmetic surgeries, as “medically necessary” so long as it “respects the gender identity of the patient, as experienced and defined” by the child. “Freedom is on the march in...

A military family who lost custody of their autistic son after they refused to transition his gender are suing a major DC hospital. The family said their boy had never shown any desire to become a girl until, at 16, he was hospitalized for self-harming after a bitter breakup with his girlfriend in 2021. Staff at Children's National Hospital informed the family that he wanted to be female and should be referred to using she/her pronouns going forward, the suit claims. His army veteran parents, from Prince George County in Maryland, rejected the suggestion, saying their son was 'impressionable' due...

A Queens Criminal Court sentenced the parents of a teenage driver Monday for crimes their then-16-year-old allegedly committed back in May of 2023. This prosecution is believed to be the first of its kind—at least in New York—in which the parents are held responsible for the actions of their children. On May 17, the now-17-year-old was allegedly driving at 101 mph in a 2005 BMW 3 Series on North Conduit Avenue in Queens when he lost control and crashed into a parked UPS truck. The teenage driver still had a junior license, which means he was supposed to be driving...

California Gov. Gavin Newsom signed a bill this week that allows schools to hide information from parents about their child’s gender identity.AB 1955 is the first of its kind in the United States. It prohibits school staff “from enacting or enforcing any policy, rule or administrative regulation that requires an employee or a contractor to disclose any information related to a pupil’s sexual orientation, gender identity or gender expression to any other person without the pupil’s consent.”The law—which passed through both chambers of the state’s Democrat-controlled Assembly—means that children can identify by their biological sex at home and a different...

Is California slated to become Gov. Gavin Newsom’s gender transition sanctuary state? Gov. Newsom just signed Assembly Bill 1955 by Assemblyman Chris Ward (D-San Diego), the bill to prohibit schools from notifying parents if their child is “gender confused” or “transitioning” to the opposite sex. Horrifyingly, the bill’s title is “Support Academic Futures and Educators for Today’s Youth Act.”

Despite the best efforts of leftist activists, many nonwhite parents are fighting back against the LGBT agenda infecting public schools.Like many left-leaning public school districts across America, the leadership of Fairfax County Public Schools just outside our nation’s capital is majority white, despite the region’s racial diversity. Meanwhile, the district’s white, leftist leaders, who incessantly claim to be inclusive, are ironically ignoring parental objections to teaching radical gender ideology in schools.At the end of June, the school board voted to include gender ideology in its seventh-grade sex-education curriculum. In response to a survey in which 84 percent of respondents opposed...

A New Hampshire teacher has been fired after she secretly escorted a pregnant special needs student to an abortion clinic. The female teacher, who has not been named to protect the identity of the student, admitted to her employer that she faked a sick day for the mission.

The teacher was listed as working for Regional Services and Education Center Inc, a nonprofit based in Amherst, according to the Boston Globe. The umbrella institution serves grade five to 12 students...

The California Senate has approved a bill that would prohibit school districts from requiring school officials to share information about a student's sexual orientation and gender identity with the child's parent, drawing concerns from Christian and parental rights groups. On Monday, the Democrat-controlled California Senate passed Assembly Bill 1955 in a 29-8 vote. Support for the legislation fell along party lines, with all votes in favor of it coming from Democrats and all opposition coming from Republicans. The legislation includes a provision declaring that "[a]n employee or a contractor of a school district, county office of education, charter school, or...

Angry parents almost got into a fistfight with a school official after their autistic son was given a questionnaire asking about trans identity, sex, suicide, and violence. McCall and Jon Nelson claimed their son Hut, 13, was so badly affected by the quiz he constantly worried his friends disliked him and stopped playing football. His mother said they had the same conversation with him hundreds of times as he was unable to move on, and it 'drastically changed his life'. The questionnaire was given to him by administrators at Mount Logan Middle School in Logan, Utah, on February 7 as...

The Show-Me State is taking the nation’s largest abortion business to court. On Monday, a hearing took place to determine whether a lawsuit filed by Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey (R) against Planned Parenthood Great Plains could proceed. Bailey filed suit against Planned Parenthood in February, alleging that the organization was trafficking minors across state lines to obtain abortions without parental consent. The lawsuit contends, “Planned Parenthood’s most recent troubling activity was captured on video, where Planned Parenthood staff admitted they traffic minors across state lines to perform abortions on them without parental consent. Worse, they admit doing this ‘every...
