As students file back into classrooms and march onto athletic fields this fall, K-12 schools in blue states across the nation continue to violate President Donald Trump’s executive orders halting the dangerous trans agenda in schools. If anyone in America still doubts how insidious this reality-denying movement is, they should look to Annunciation Catholic Church School in Minneapolis where trans-identified male gunman Robin (formerly Robert) Westman mowed down innocent schoolchildren in a hail of bullets on Wednesday, killing two (ages 8 and 10) and injuring 17 others before cowardly taking his own life. Nor is Westman the first transgender criminal...

The leader of a Girls Scout troop in New Jersey says she was removed from her position due to her social media posts that questioned the organization’s perceived shift towards LGBTQIA+ activism and its introduction of gender sexuality alliance clubs to scouts. Alexandra Bougher, who is also the Bergen County chapter chair of Moms for Liberty, said she was fired in a phone call Wednesday with two members of the council of the Girl Scouts of Northern New Jersey. Moms for Liberty is a right-wing parents rights group that advocates against school curricula mentioning LGBTQ rights, race, and ethnicity. Bougher...

The Brief: -A federal judge ruled Florida’s restrictions on transgender teachers’ pronouns violate civil-rights law. -The case is on hold while a Georgia appeal on similar issues is pending. -The outcome could shape workplace protections for transgender employees across the Southeast. A federal judge in Florida has ruled that the state’s law requiring teachers to use pronouns that match a student’s sex at birth amounts to discrimination, conflicting with federal protections against employment discrimination based on sex. SNIP What we don't know: While Walker declared the law discriminatory, he stopped short of issuing an injunction or awarding damages. The future...

AP Photo/Chris Pizzello The latest Disney/Pixar animated film, 'Elio', has a dubious distinction. It has the worst opening weekend ever for a Pixar film, making only $21 million domestically and $14 million overseas. This is against a budget reportedly ranging from $150 million to $300 million. Yikes! Would you believe us if we told you things could have been even worse at the box office? Before some major changes, the 11-year-old title character was going to be gay ('queer-coded') and, for fun, put on fashion shows with clothing made out of trash he found on the beach. Oh, and he...

This article contains graphic descriptions that may not be suitable for all readers. Parental discretion is advised.RALEIGH, N.C. – Like public libraries across the country, branches in North Carolina’s capital city turn rainbow-hued each June in celebration of Pride Month. Festive book displays featuring “queer-themed” titles written for all ages – from toddlers to teens and adults – are set out for the public as innocently as if the subject in question were cooking, gardening, or personal finance. The colorful Pride books set out by Wake County civil servants are not just a benign celebration of gay dignity, hugging couples,...

Pacific Lutheran University is a private Lutheran university in Parkland, Washington, that is sponsored and financially supported by the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA.) They recently hosted ‘Queer Prom,’ an event targeted at 14-24 year olds, in conjunction with the Oasis Youth Center. According to Campus Record, “The sign-up sheet for the dance asked attendees to list information including personal pronouns and offered 8 specific options for sexual orientation and 7 different genders to choose from.” Along with dancing, the event features “prizes, direct advocacy, free condoms, pregnancy tests, and HIV testing. For more on the ELCA:

Although the Trump administration has made significant inroads toward eradicating the taxpayer-supported spread of transgender ideology across America’s youth, some examples of the insidious practice still remain. Most recently, New York’s Museum of Natural History began drawing harsh criticism from parents and others who oppose an eight-minute video being played on a loop inside the museum. “Dragfox,” a stop-motion-animated production, tells the story of a fox who takes a “magical journey” with a cross-dressing boy wearing his sister’s dress. The thinly veiled pro-trans message wasn’t lost on a slew of parents and children’s advocates, as the New York Post reported:...

"Another day, another protest against a fascist dictatorship." (note the Chelsea Clinton t-shirt)

When I was in fifth grade at Central Elementary School, all the girls were obsessing over Judy Blume's "Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret." The school library had two copies, and there was a waiting list to borrow the book. But there was another problem: Mrs. Horvath, the school librarian. She would not allow children to check out the book without explicit parental permission. And for good reason. It includes mature themes, like masturbation, menstruation, and young girls obsessing over their breast size. When my name came up on the list, Mrs. Horvath marched 10-year-old me down to the...

Justice Brett Kavanaugh expressed surprise Tuesday that schools in a state founded on religious liberty are now banning parents with religious objections from opting their young children out of LGBTQ storybook lessons. In Mahmoud v. Taylor, a majority of the Supreme Court appeared ready to side with parents who want to opt their children out of Montgomery County Board of Education’s mandated storybook readings involving pronouns, transgender children and pride parades. “I guess I am a bit mystified, as a lifelong resident of the county, how it came to this,” Kavanaugh said during oral arguments. “Can you just tell us...

Actress Cynthia Erivo, who stars in the musical drama “Wicked” opposite Ariana Grande, just said in a speech at the GLAAD Media Awards that it’s “hard” not being referred to by preferred pronouns. The 38-year-old British star made the remarks during the event at the Beverly Hilton last week, where she was awarded the Stephen F. Kolzak award, which is given to an “openly queer member of the entertainment or media community for their work toward eliminating homophobia.”

Ben Gerrard had just sat down for Sunday lunch when he got a text from his friend Kurt that began to unravel a bizarre small-town crime spree. 'My pride flag got stolen last night, did yours?' Gerrard was out of town, so he checked his doorbell camera to see if the LGBTQ flag was still flying from the porch of his house in Chestertown, Maryland. His was gone too. Mystified, he wound his Ring doorbell footage back until 12.41am and caught the heist in action. The footage showed two teenagers run up the steps, unhook the flag, and sprint back...

The Presbyterian Church (PCUSA) has officially completed its transformation from a nominally Christian denomination into yet another rubber-stamping committee for the moral revolution. With its latest amendment, enshrining LGBTQIAP+ identities into its Constitution, the PCUSA has removed any last fig leaf of theological credibility, not that it had any left, opting instead for total allegiance to the gods of sexual identity politics. This was inevitable. Believe it or not, here and there, there did exist at least somewhat remotely faithful PCUSA congregations, but only because it was so difficult to exit the denomination. But, the PCUSA abandoned biblical fidelity long...

Tom Di Liberto, the ousted employee, called his termination from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) “ridiculous” in a Monday interview with CNN’s John Berman, adding that he expects DOGE’s reductions to hinder hurricane and disaster readiness. Di Liberto was the creator and star of “Teek and Tom Explore Planet Earth,” an animated series produced by NOAA at a cost exceeding $3 million, according to federal spending records. . .The five-part series, intended to educate children about Earth’s weather and climate, stars Di Liberto as himself alongside Teek, an apparently androgynous, cyclopean extraterrestrial from the planet “Queloz.” Teek is...

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard has given all intelligence agencies until Friday to identify the employees participating in pornographic chats while on duty, revoke their security clearances, and terminate their employment. In a memo released Tuesday evening, Gabbard responded decisively to revelations that numerous employees who were members of a National Security Agency chat system used it to discuss fetishes, kink, and sex as part of the agency's DEI program. [embedded tweets] This story broke yesterday (see EXPOSED: NSA, CIA, FBI, and Others Used Government Resources to Do Absolutely Deranged, Disgusting Things – RedState and NSA, CIA Respond to...

I listened to it, and now you have to. Coming at you from Wall Street United Church in Ontario, Canada, here is the hottest new track from the pervy idolatrous groomers over at the United Church of Canada, entitled "Quirky, Queer, and Wonderful."

The fires are still going out here in Los Angeles and new ones are emerging tonight, the Sunset fire and now a fire in Studio City, the air smells of fire and smoke, and the only thing worse is the inept local leadership.And the level of ineptitude is truly mindblowing.I wrote an article and a Twitter thread on the wokeness in the LAFD. The article has yet to run, but the Twitter thread offers a sample of the insanity. Wokeness and DEI led to four lesbians, 3 of them named some variation of Kirstin, running one of the nation’s largest...

Colin Wright @SwipeWright I'm not sure you're ready for this. Last night I posted an insane academic paper titled "Loving the Brine Shrimp: Exploring Queer Feminist Blue Posthumanities to Reimagine the ‘America’s Dead Sea’." That paper included a section near the end where the author claimed, via performance art, "to challenge the dominant scientific, industrial, and cultural use of brine shrimp by responding to them as lovable objects." They made... a video. It's titled "Cyber Wedding to the Brine Shrimp," and depicts the author and her queer colleagues, dressed as brides, venturing out into the Great Salt Lake in Utah,...
