    Assessment based on activism, prescriptions for puberty blockers and 'procedures' on kids.. A new database has revealed the "Dirty Dozen," the 12 "worst-offending" hospitals in America for inflicting transgender agenda injuries on children. And Mat Staver, the chief of Liberty Counsel, which has battled the leftist, and unscientific, ideology that males can be turned into females and vice versa, said, "Mutilating children for profit is criminal. It is biologically impossible to change one's gender. "The insanity of gender ideology and greed has made a mockery of the medical profession's duty to 'do no harm.' There are only two genders, and...

    The methamphetamine was wearing off as soon-to-be South Philly legend Joey Coyle sipped coffee on his Front Street steps on the morning of Feb. 26, 1981. He was waiting on the mailman, who was carrying his $700 paycheck, but his next binge couldn’t wait. Coyle persuaded two young neighbors to drive him to his drug dealer’s house, but the dealer wasn’t home. On the way back, Coyle was riding shotgun and scanning the South Philly sidewalks for metal scraps when he spotted it. ---SNIP--- He had hit the South Philly lottery: money that literally fell off a truck. The haul:...

    Democrats are facing new charges of election fraud going back to 2021, despite their party pushing back on election integrity and voter fraud claims since the 2020 presidential election. While Democrats have long criticized Republicans who are concerned about election integrity by smearing them with the pejorative label “election deniers,” new allegations regarding election fraud are being made against Democrats. Five Democratic Party members in Bridgeport, Conn., and Philadelphia have been criminally charged with numerous counts of voter fraud on both the state and federal levels regarding mail-in ballots. Bridgeport had to redo primary and general elections last year after...

    The Eagles have not rejected an invite to President Donald Trump's White House, according to a new report. The Super Bowl champions did not visit President Trump after previously winning the championship in 2018 - during his first term - and The US Sun reported earlier this month that they would be skipping out on the honor this time around too. That report began to spread around social media over the weekend. However, according to a White House source who spoke with Outkick founder Clay Travis, the Eagles have not rejected a trip to Washington - with the White House...

    Three politicians in a small municipality near Philadelphia were indicted this week on charges they tried to fraudulently win the mayoral race in 2021 by producing about three dozen false mail-in ballots. A federal grand jury accused Mohammed Nurul Hasan, Mohammed Munsur Ali and Mohammed Rafikul Islam of conspiring to register people who live outside 1,200-population Millbourne as borough residents, to have mail-in ballots sent to themselves and then to return the completed ballots to the Delaware County elections board. Hasan was serving as vice president of the borough council and had lost the Democratic mayoral primary in the heavily...

The two-term district attorney is running for a third term and believes it won’t be a problem for him to win reelection, but the margin of victory could be very important.
