I just got a warning from "X" that a post I made goes against "X" rules. They showed some women and a man dressed as a woman. I posted this. "Clown actors used to dress as women for laughs. Fatty Arbuckle, Buster Keaton, Gary Grant, RED SKELTON and many others. They were for comedy. Now trannys want to be taken as serious. No, they are still clowns to be laughed at. Same for homosexuals." They posted this. Your post was detected by our systems and has had its visibility limited for violating the X rules. Specifically: We have determined your...

The University of Louisville has agreed to pay nearly $1.6 million to settle a lawsuit filed by a former professor after he was fired for criticizing sex change surgeries and hormone therapies for children. Dr. Allan Josephson worked for nearly 15 years as the chief of the University of Louisville’s Division of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry and Psychology. In his lawsuit, Josephson asserts that he successfully revitalized the underperforming department during his tenure, earning exemplary marks in his annual performance evaluations from 2014 to 2016. In spite of his professional accolades, the complaint alleges that he was demoted in 2017,...

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...

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 U.S. Supreme Court is weighing the extent to which parents can opt their children out of public school instruction in which LGBT-themed books are read as part of the curriculum. The Supreme Court heard oral arguments on Tuesday morning in the case of Mahmoud, Tamer, et al. v. Taylor, Thomas W., et al. The case centers on whether public school parents in Montgomery County, Maryland — the state's largest school district — have a constitutional right under the First Amendment to exempt their children from lessons that feature LGBT ideology. Eric Baxter of the Becket Fund for Religious Liberty...

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...

Downing Street has said that British Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer no longer believes that so-called “transgender women” are actually women in the wake of a Supreme Court ruling confirming the nature of biological reality. Last week, Britain’s top court found that “the concept of sex is binary, a person is either a woman or a man,” meaning that supposedly transgender individuals will be prohibited from using single-sex spaces like female-only changing rooms or bathrooms. The ruling will also likely bar biological males from competing in women’s sports. While Prime Minister Starmer has previously struggled with the concept of binary...

For Christians, Easter is ultimately about the empty tomb and its promise of resurrection. But before the resurrection, there was the cross, which was widely views as a symbol of a terrifying system of imperial tyranny, a frequent instrument for executions during the Roman empire. Setting aside the miracles and the metaphysics, Easter offers an anti-tyrannical political message.

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...

A new law would turn Colorado into a transition and kidnapping mill for the whole country, as crazed parents could groom their child, take them to Colorado, and seize custody from their ex-spouse.What happens when your ex-wife wants to convince your 12-year-old daughter that she isn’t really a girl? In the state of Colorado, if you don’t “affirm” that made-up gender identity, the state will start to take your child away from you.That’s what is happening to father Robert Hernandez, whose ex-wife Abigail Sanderson has allegedly been working with a groomer school therapist to pursue the new “non-binary” gender status...

Female fencing star Stephanie Turner declined to face a transgender opponent in a late-March tournament, leading to her disqualification from the tournament and an explosion of a debate about women’s sports online. But while she lost the tournament because she declined to compete, it wasn’t all a loss for Turner: she also won a big award and reward from a pro-women’s sports clothing brand. The match at which the original incident occurred was the USA Fencing tournament on March 30, 2025, during which Turner was slated to compete against transgender competitor Redmond Sullivan. Turner took a knee and refused to...

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...

The amendment declares that children's rights to moral, physical and spiritual development supersede any right other than the right to life, including the right to peaceful assembly. Hungary's parliament has passed an amendment to the constitution that allows the government to ban public events by LGBTQ+ communities, a decision that legal scholars and critics are calling another step toward authoritarianism. The amendment, which required a two-thirds vote, passed along party lines with 140 votes for and 21 against. It was proposed by the ruling Fidesz-KDNP coalition led by Prime Minister Viktor Orbán. The amendment declares that children's rights to moral,...

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...
