'Hell of a vindication': Detransitioner speaks out after being silenced by college, threatened by classmates * WorldNetDaily * by Elizabeth Troutman Mitchell, The Daily Signal:
Amaya Price's father immediately shut down the possibility of a medical "transition," which his son now says is "the best thing he could have done."
Amaya Price calls himself a "desister," someone who identified as transgender but decided to live in accord with his biological gender instead of undergoing medical interventions.
After Amaya Price spoke at the Sunday event, senior researcher Ian Kingsbury of the medical watchdog Do No Harm gave a presentation on understanding the faulty "science" behind pediatric gender medicine. Do No Harm is responsible for a database of 225 hospitals that perform child gender transitions.
Jennifer Rubin's Messaging Advice to Dems: 'Republicans Want to Kill Your Kids'
Some people just aren't adjusting well to the results of the election. - John Sexton
Case in point: Jennifer Rubin at the Washington Post. Just two days after the election she posted this gem. (She locked her account so I have to insert my reaction to her tweet.)
Yesterday, Rubin offered dejected Democrats some more messaging advice.

Yesterday, Rubin offered dejected Democrats some more messaging advice.
If Dems want to win they should start telling voters that Republicans want to kill their children.
“You have to boil it down to nuts and bolts and you have to be pithy. What do I mean by pithy? How about this: Republicans want to kill your kids. It’s actually true,”,,
“If you’re going to oppose vaccinations, if you’re going to stop breakthrough medical research, if you’re going to allow minors and all sorts of people to get semiautomatic weapons — which they use to shoot up schools — well then, you are responsible for kids’ health and death,” she continued.
Here's the clip.
The Chinese Telecom Hack Was Much Worse Than We've Been Told
About a month ago we learned that Chinese hackers had targeted the phones of Donald Trump and J.D. Vance. - John SextonThe hackers, dubbed "Salt Typhoon" were known to have targeted their phones, along with the phones of other government figures, however it wasn't known exactly how far they got...
- So the bottom line is that the Chinese government was probably listening in on Trump's calls and reading his texts during some portion of the past year.
They probably had the same access to J.D. Vance's phone plus another 150 or so people, nearly all of them connected to the US government.
This is obviously unacceptable and there ought to be some sort of proportional response for an intrusion like this.

China has been stealing our secrets and our private information for too long.
At some point we need to smack their hand hard enough that they learn to stop.

Bill Alert: New Michigan Sex Ed Overhaul by Democrats Aims to Rewrite the Rules, Pushing Abortion and Gender Identity
Michigan Legislators Plan to Use Lame Duck Session to Rewrite School Rules - J.P. IsbellLANSING, Mich. (Michigan News Source) – Michigan News Source has learned that Michigan legislators have plans to introduce a sweeping bill this month that could radically change the state’s public school curriculum around sex education, gender identity, and reproductive health.
Fast-tracked for the lame duck session, the bill aims to reshape traditional values in schools...
Key changes in the proposed bill…
Key changes in the proposed bill…
- Abstinence Education Overhaul: The requirement to teach abstinence as a “positive lifestyle for unmarried young people” would be removed...
- Emphasizing “Bodily Autonomy”: The bill introduces lessons on bodily autonomy, suggesting that children, even in elementary grades, are independent in making personal choices about relationships and health.
- Expanding Gender and Sexual Identity Topics: The curriculum would require teachers to affirm various gender identities and sexual orientations, with teaching materials including examples of same-sex relationships, gender transitions, and non-binary identities.
- Education on Abortion and Contraception: Schools could teach about all “legally available pregnancy outcomes,” including abortion, and distribute family planning resources without parental consent.
- Parental rights at risk? - One of the most contentious parts of the bill involves parental involvement. Currently, parents must opt their children into sex ed programs, but this overhaul would assume parental permission unless they actively opt-out...

Crescent Dunes: Biden DOJ Moved on Election Night to Cover Up Alleged Solar Energy Scandal that Cost Taxpayers Hundreds of Millions
Outgoing President Joe Biden’s Justice Department moved on election night on Nov. 5 to essentially ensure the cover-up of a potentially massive green energy scandal, Breitbart News has learned exclusively. - Matthew Boyle

Pressure grows for UMich to end its failed $250 million DEI experiment | The College Fix - Jennifer
- The University of Michigan has spent about a quarter of a billion dollars on diversity, equity and inclusion efforts since 2016, but that has done nothing to unite or improve the campus community, and in fact in many ways DEI dogma produced more strife and division...which found Michigan has the largest DEI bureaucracy of any large public university...

Whitlock EXPOSES the Clinton family & how they ruined America | Blaze Media:
If Donald Trump really wants to “drain the swamp” as he’s promised, “the Clintons have to go down,” says Jason, adding that there are plenty of other establishment Democrats and Republicans (like Mitch McConnell) who also need to go.
“Thank God someone took on this job. It's an ugly, ugly job,” he says. “Somebody had to step up and be the Godfather and do the dirty work — the work no one else wants to do.”
Against Post-Election Infantilizing
Faculty should be role models for our students, not nannies, guidance counselors, or co-mourners. -Mark McNeilly
- After the 2016 election of Donald Trump as president of the United States, many faculty at universities canceled classes...
- Other professors took class time to allow students to “process their feelings” and deal with what was perceived as a devastating event for all on campus.
- In 2024, some faculty followed the same playbook at universities such as Harvard, Michigan State, and UPenn, among other institutions, by canceling classes or using class time to deal with anticipated student emotions.
This was a mistake for a number of reasons....
Myth I: Every student in their class is devastated by the results of the election. Given that Harris lost much of the youth vote (18-29 age range) compared to Biden in 2020 and beat Trump only 52 percent to 46 percent, this is a faulty belief...
