An Illinois school district honored a biological male in celebration of Women’s History Month on Thursday. Batavia Public School District 101 honored Democratic Rep. Sarah McBride of Delaware, who claims to be a transgender woman, in a since-deleted Thursday Facebook post, a week after they honored astronaut Mae Jemison. McBride was involved in controversy over which restroom would be used after being first elected to the United States House of Representatives in 2024. “Sarah McBride was born on August 9th, 1990, in Wilmington, Delaware. At a young age, she became interested in politics and government. McBride eventually ran for the...

A coalition of congressional Democrats unveiled a resolution titled the “Trans Bill of Rights” last week to push back against the “fear” and “hatred” propelled by those who believe that one’s sex corresponds to their biological sex. As written by Rep. Seth Moulton, D-Mass., in a press release, the resolution aims to direct the federal government to expand transgender access to public “services” and “accommodations.” The bill language adds that it aims to ensure that “transgender and non-binary people” get “equal access” to “services and public accommodations that align with their gender identity. The bill also states that transgenders should...

President Donald Trump's administration called on a federal judge to approve the deportation of Kilmar Abrego Garcia to Liberia on Friday, arguing all legal hurdles had been cleared. The Friday filing is the latest in the administration's efforts to deport Abrego Garcia a second time following his return from El Salvador earlier this year. The Justice Department called on U.S. District Court Judge Paula Xinis to clear the deportation, saying Abrego Garcia had failed to establish that he would face persecution in Liberia. "Petitioner's claims are procedurally barred multiple times over and fail on the merits in any event," the...

The founder of Dignitas – a Zurich, Switzerland, clinic that assists those with illnesses end their lives – says he wants to open a chain of "suicide clinics" in other countries to give everyone, including the mentally ill, the "the choice of a choice." Ludwig Minelli Ludwig Minelli, a Swiss lawyer, told the London Sunday Times he has already opened an associated Dignitas office in Germany and he intends to lift the "taboo" against suicide by lobbying other countries to set up clinics to offer information on effective methods of suicide and to alert people to the risks of...

Two sisters are selling tickets for a party to raise money to enable their mother to commit suicide at a Swiss clinic. Jackie Baker, 59, wants to travel to the Dignitas euthanasia clinic after developing motor neurone disease in February. Her daughters Tara O'Reilly and Rose Baker are desperately trying to raise £8,000 so their mother can "die with dignity" in Switzerland.

We were very upset at the beginning but...

The founder of Dignitas, a controversial assisted suicide organization, ended his own life at age 92, the group announced Monday. It’s a tragic irony that underscores the dehumanizing consequences of the deadly practice. Ludwig Minelli, a former journalist and human rights lawyer, died November 29 through what Dignitas described as “voluntary assisted dying,” just days before his 93rd birthday on December 5. The Zurich-based death group, which Minelli established in 1998 to enable people to end their lives “on their own terms,” provided no further details about the circumstances of his death. Dignitas, one of Switzerland’s most prominent suicide killers,...

The Minnesota Supreme Court ruled on Wednesday that an athletic organization violated the state’s anti-discrimination law when it barred a transgender athlete from competing, culminating a six-year-long legal battle. Minnesota Supreme Court’s Chief Justice Natalie E. Hudson affirmed that a sport organization’s policy barring trans women from competing is “facially discriminatory and constitutes direct evidence of discrimination based on sexual orientation under the [Minnesota Human Rights Act’s] prohibition against discrimination in business and places of public accommodation.” The decision reversed a court of appeals ruling that had sowed doubt on whether the organization, USA Powerlifting, had made the decision to...

"setting women back." That’s just the excuse they’re throwing around because they don’t want to admit the truth. They’re mad because she’s young, hot, White, and blonde. And they're mad that corporations are finally waking up to the truth: that the American people are done with woke! If she were 300 pounds and identified as gender-fluid, she’d be hailed as a revolutionary. If she threw her pronouns into every interview, wore a "FEMINIST" crop top to the red carpet, and spouted progressive talking points on cue, they’d be tripping over themselves to give her a GLAAD Award. But because Sydney...

Former First Lady Michelle Obama ignited a firestorm of controversy with remarks made during a recent episode of her podcast, “IMO with Michelle Obama & Craig Robinson.” Obama described a woman’s reproductive system as primarily serving purposes beyond childbirth, stating, “the least of what it does is produce life.” The comment, which surfaced during a discussion on women’s reproductive health, has drawn sharp criticism from pro-life advocates who see it as diminishing the significance of a woman’s ability to bear children—a core tenet of their perspective. “So many men have no idea about what women go through. Right? We haven’t...

In case you were wondering what the Wisconsin Democratic Party is focused on these days — it's not inflation, the border crisis, or crumbling roads. Nope. Their latest priority is scrubbing the word "mother" from state law. This week, Democrats introduced the Marriage and Family Equality Act — a warm, fuzzy name for a bill that replaces "mother" with terms like "pregnant person." Apparently, acknowledging basic biology is now considered hAtE speech. Sorry, moms. It gets worse. Similarly, Governor Tony Evers' Senate Bill 45 doesn't just tweak a few terms — it replaces "mother" with "inseminated person" across 1,917 pages...

Female track team members express discomfort with locker room policies at emotional school board meeting.. As California's transgender athlete conflict escalates, one high school athlete has resorted to changing clothes in her car to avoid uncomfortable situations. During a Lucia Mar Unified School District (LMUSD) school board meeting this week, junior Audrey Vanherweg revealed her decision.

This is what the endgame of trans ideology looks like: an all-male final of a women’s pool championship. Last night, the UK’s Ultimate Pool Women’s Pro Series Event 2 in Wigan had its final match. This women’s pool event wouldn’t ordinarily have grabbed the headlines, except for one curious detail: this year, there were no women in the final. It was played between two transgender-identified men – Harriet Haynes and Lucy Smith. They had defeated four female opponents each before making it to the final, which Haynes ultimately won. Broadcaster Piers Morgan took to X to call the incident ‘preposterous’...

Even after President Donald Trump’s executive order, boys are still playing in girls’ sports. Lawmakers need to step up. Even after various states have passed legislation to protect women’s sports and President Donald Trump signed an executive order to enforce federal protections, girls are still being forced to compete against boys. Kim Jones hears “floods” of stories from girls who are forced to compete with, or share inappropriate spaces with, boys who identify as girls. Jones is co-founder of the Independent Council on Women’s Sports (ICONS), a “network and advocacy group” for protecting women’s sports. “Their parents call, and there’s...

The WIAA was told by the state’s Attorney General Nick Brown and Superintendent of Public Instruction Chris Reykdal, both Democrats, as well as the state’s Office for Civil Rights, that the proposals would violate state law.. The governing body for high school sports in Washington State has announced that it will not ban men from women’s sports following legal threats from Democrat officials. Washington state law currently requires educational agencies to allow students to participate in interscholastic sports "that most closely aligns with their gender identity.” The Washington Interscholastic Activities Association (WIAA) previously announced that it had proposed two bylaw...

A recent incident at a USA Fencing tournament has sparked outrage after a female fencer was disqualified for taking a knee in protest of competing against a transgender athlete. The incident, which took place at the University of Maryland on March 30 during the USA Fencing-sanctioned regional tournament “The Cherry Blossom – D1A/VET ROC,” was captured in a viral video posted by the Independent Council on Women’s Sports, or ICONS.

A California university is doing away with traditional men's and women's locker rooms in an effort to support transgender students - even as the state's governor condemns transgender athletes in female sports. The University of California, Davis announced plans last month to renovate the locker rooms at its Activities and Recreation Center, citing student feedback as the motivation for the $5 million project. 'We value inclusive, accessible environments that accommodate the diverse needs of our community,' schools officials said at the time, according to Fox News. 'We are pleased to announce that we will be remodeling the current locker room...

ATLANTA (WANF/Gray News) - For the first time, an openly transgender woman has announced her intention to compete for the Miss Georgia USA title. The decision is sparking controversy, but Bella Bautista says she is optimistic about competing in the competition. The Cartersville native is currently Miss Buckhead USA and is dreaming even bigger. “I was like, this could honestly be a true reality for me. This dream could one day come true.
