A transgender Oregon lawmaker died after suffering internal bleeding from stomach ulcers that her doctor said were brought on by stress linked to her job and a bitter recall election, according to family members and friends. Claire Hall, a longtime Lincoln County commissioner, collapsed at her home in Newport late on January 2 and was rushed to a hospital in Portland where she died two days later at the age of 66 after doctors were unable to stop the hemorrhaging.

Elon Musk is funding a lawsuit from the Texas doctor who is accusing Texas Children’s Hospital and multiple physicians of crafting “malicious” lies about him to destroy his career as they attempted to cover up their efforts to transition children. Dr. Eithan Haim blew the whistle on Texas Children’s Hospital in May 2023, unveiling proof that the hospital had lied about ending its transgender medical program and was still performing attempted transition procedures on children as young as 11. His disclosures showed the hospital was breaking the law, as Texas had just passed a bipartisan law to ban the procedures....

Another source said the outfit is already in production: "Let them complain. The dress is already being...

Washington Capitals forward Alex Ovechkin may not be the most liked player in the NHL, but he found a way to endear himself to a lot of the game's fans. On Saturday night, the Capitals and Florida Panthers faced off, with Washington holding its annual Pride Night before the game. (Cue the justified boos and eye rolls). That means that many players decided to put rainbow tape on their sticks as a show of support. But Ovechkin, and several others, decided not to. They skated onto the ice with their sticks looking normal as most reasonable people would do. Martin...

Remember during Covid when liberals kept insisting that they were the ones who believed in "THE Science?" Well now that "THE Science" has proved to become politically inconvenient for them we see the hilarious spectacle of those same liberals denying basic science such as during a recent Senate hearing when a leftist doctor refused to answer the simple question of "Can men get pregnant?"We can now also see that same pathetic denial of obvious scientific reality taking effect in the current arguments surrounding the Supreme Court case about upholding state bans of biological males aka trans-women participating in women's sports....

The Rev. Franklin Graham issued an urgent call to prayer, encouraging Americans to come together at noon on January 14 to collectively seek God — a move he believes is essential for a nation he believes has turned its back on the Lord. "Our nation is falling so far from God and His truth," Graham told CBN News. The Samaritan's Purse CEO cited as evidence confusion he observed this week at the Supreme Court, where justices are currently weighing whether states can preclude biological men from participating in women's sports. Graham said 10 years ago such an argument wouldn't have...

A group of nurses has won their case against the NHS after they were forced to share their changing room with a trans-identifying biological male. Employment Judge Sweeney and tribunal members Denise Newey and Malcolm Brain ruled that the policy enforced by County Durham and Darlington NHS Foundation Trust had failed to take the concerns of the nurses seriously and amounted to unlawful harassment and discrimination. The Darlington nurses outside Parliament. (Photo: Christian Legal Centre) The tribunal concluded that the policy violated the dignity of the nurses and created "a hostile, humiliating and degrading environment".It is the latest landmark judgment...

WASHINGTON, D.C. — The Supreme Court took a break from deliberations regarding individuals competing in sports designated for the opposite sex to bring in an expert five-year-old boy to explain the difference between boys and girls."Boys have wee-wees and girls have vee-vees," said Hunter Plath, a five-year-old boy from Iowa.According to court records, the explanation elicited various responses from the justices. Justices Sonia Sotomayor and Ketanji Brown Jackson were seemingly astonished, saying, "Ohhhhhhhh!" Associate Justice Brett M. Kavanaugh only giggled.Justice Clarence Thomas reportedly rolled his eyes as the two most liberal justices of the court followed up with questions on...

Today, in things aliens would be perplexed by if they invaded, Sen. Josh Hawley fought a five-minute battle over whether men can get pregnant. During a hearing on Capitol Hill, he had to repeatedly press a supposed "expert" witness on the subject, and I haven't seen filibustering like this since Democrats tried to stop the Civil Rights Act. Apparently, it's just a complete mystery. Unsolvable by the best attempts of science. CLICK ABOVE ARTICLE LINK FOR THE VIDEO Sen. Josh Hawley: "Can men get pregnant?" Dr. Nisha Verma: "I'm not really sure what the goal of the question is." Hawley:...

I don’t think anyone would confuse Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson with a sharp legal mind. She often comes across as the poster child for what’s wrong with DEI hires. On Tuesday, the Supreme Court heard oral arguments in Little v. Hecox, a case that will likely decide whether laws barring biological males from competing on girls’ sports teams are constitutional. Given that Jackson famously admitted during her confirmation hearings that she didn’t know what a woman was — because, as she put it, she’s “not a biologist” — you knew she was bound to be a real spectacle. And true...

A Ukrainian family in California says Child Welfare removed their teenage daughter from their home and placed them on the child abuse registry after they declined to “affirm” her transgender identity. Speaking to Reduxx under the condition of anonymity, the parents say the removal followed a report filed by their daughter’s psychiatrist without their knowledge. The mother, who will be referred to as Ellie, told Reduxx that a social worker from Shasta County Child Welfare Services arrived at the family’s home on June 3, 2024, without prior notice. According to Ellie, the worker accused the parents of emotional abuse and...

A female prisoner was thrown into a locked cell at a Massachusetts prison after she told authorities she was allegedly raped by one of at least four transgender sex predators housed there, a report has claimed. According to an investigation conducted by The Hill, MCI-Framingham, the state's all-female prison, is punishing biological female inmates who speak up about alleged abuse at the hands of transgender inmates who also call it home. One incarcerated woman, who requested anonymity due to fear of retaliation, told the outlet she informed MCI-Framingham officials she was raped by a male prisoner who identifies as transgender...

The California law, which Gov. Gavin Newsom signed in 2024 and went into effect a year ago, covers not only disclosure about a student’s gender identity but also their sexual orientation. However, the latter does not appear to be at issue in the case.The statute was passed after several school districts in the state issued what critics called “forced outing” policies requiring teachers to notify parents if students sought to change their name, pronouns or gender identity. The law does allow disclosures about a student’s gender identity in “compelling” circumstances, but critics contend that exception is too vague.U.S. District Judge...

Here we go again. Yet another violent transgender creep has been arrested for political violence. There’s a definite pattern here, and the left and their media buddies keep pretending it doesn’t exist. Think about it, these incidents involve a very small group of mentally ill people, yet they are stacking up violent and even deadly attacks month after month, and nobody on the left wants to talk about it. The fake news would rather lecture about pronouns than talk about hammers, broken glass, bullets flying, and right-wing politicians being targeted. Meanwhile, the media and the left are still pushing the...

(LifeSiteNews) — The Bible says nothing about abortion and homosexual “marriage,” according to a Democratic candidate for the U.S. Senate. James Talarico is currently running to be the nominee for the 2026 Senate race in Texas. Currently the seat is held by Republican John Cornyn. Talarico is a state representative. “The Bible doesn’t mention abortion or gay marriage, but it goes on and on about forgiving debt, liberating the poor, and healing the sick,” Talarico’s campaign account posted, along with a video of him making similar remarks in a bland chapel of some sort. “The closest thing we have to...
