Mother of trans teenager: Los Angeles County killed my daughter

 Washington Examiner

"The number of teenagers identifying as transgender has exploded. Advocates say it protects young people from marginalization. Some experts, however, many of whom consider themselves survivors, warn against treating adolescent confusion with drugs and surgeries that have irreversible physical and psychological effects. In the second part of this series, the Washington Examiner speaks to the mothers affected.

"Abby Martinez tried to fight back when a Los Angeles school, county social workers, and an LGBT group sought to transition her confused 15-year-old daughter.

"But once Yaeli Martinez was moved into foster care and later injected with testosterone, the heartbroken mother could only watch helplessly as the girl spiraled into depression that ended when she stepped in front of an oncoming train.

" 'They killed my daughter," a tearful Martinez told the Washington Examiner. "They had to pick pieces of her off of the track.' ”. . .

Kamala loses her TENTH staffer since June

 

VP's National Security Adviser Nancy McEldowney stepping down, tenth staffer since June | Daily Mail Online

"McEldowney is a 31-year veteran of Foreign Service, having served as ambassador to Bulgaria, and deputy chief of mission in both Azerbaijan and Turkey. 

"The adviser's departure comes on the heels of Harris's high-stakes NATO trip to Poland and Romania, and after a turbulent first year marked by a number of public messaging failures. 

"In Warsaw, Harris attracted controversy after laughing off questions about the refugee crisis resulting from the Russian invasion of Ukraine.". . .

"Biden warned senior staff that if 'he found that any of them was stirring up negative stories about the vice president' then 'they would quickly be former staff.'   

"The book describes the pair's relationship as 'friendly but not close.' 

" 'Their weekly lunches lacked a real depth of personal and political intimacy,' the authors wrote -- a notable departure from the president's characteristic warmth.". . .  

Former Russia President Calls Poland the Source of 'Evil, Vulgar and Shrill' Propaganda and Joe Biden 'Demented' as Biden Prepares to Visit Poland –

  RedState    "To say the least, I’m very concerned about Biden’s visit. From the earliest days of the crisis, I’ve never been all that sure which side Biden was on. More often than not, his actions before the invasion acted like those of a man eager to ingratiate himself with Putin; see Kyiv Is ‘Stunned’ That Biden Appears to Greenlight ‘Minor Incursion’ Into Ukraine and WH Tries to Clean up Biden’s ‘Minor Incursion’ Gaffe but They Only Make It Worse. In addition, I thought the bizarre joint press conference with Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Mark “White Rage Boy” Milley tried to goad Putin into attacking Ukraine; see Why Today’s Austin-Milley Press Conference Convinces Me That Joe Biden Wants Conflict With Russia in Ukraine.

"The Biden bunch has gone a long way towards treating Poland like an enemy. Biden was the guy who pulled the plug on Poland’s plan to transfer MiGs to Ukraine; see Revealed: The Real Reason That Deal to Send Fighter Jets to Ukraine Fell Through. Our alleged Secretary of State Anthony Blinken made a statement that seemed to put Poland outside the protection of NATO; see Did Blinken Put Poland Outside NATO Protection if It Transfers New Fighter Aircraft to Ukraine?

"Given Biden’s obvious cognitive issues, I think him talking to anyone other than his freakin dog is a bad move. He certainly can’t match the courage of Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki, Petr Fiala of the Czech Republic, and Janez Jansa of Slovenia meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal in Kiev (see Three Prime Ministers Brave Artillery Fire in Ukraine as Joe Biden Unveils a New White House Tour Schedule). Plus, even on his best day, he never had the stones to do that.

Despite the obvious diplomatic disadvantage we have, it turns out that we have an inadvertent ally. Dmitry Medvedev, deputy chairman of the Security Council of Russia and long-time Kremlin fixture, rode to our aid.". . .

Social Media Overlords Punish Babylon Bee for Refusing to Maintain Transgender Gaslighting –

 RedState

The tweet contains a picture of Levine with a headline that read: “The Babylon Bee’s Man of the Year is Rachel Levine.”

. . ."Twitter has banished satire site Babylon Bee from its platform for posting a tweet that violates one of the precepts of wokeism. The social media company indicated it would reinstate the site’s account if it deletes the tweet. However, it appears the Bee will not be acquiescing.

"Fox News reported that Babylon Bee CEO Seth Dillon “has no plans” to remove the tweet that Twitter flagged. From the report:. . ."

As I wrote previously, everyone knows this is wrong – including many of the people pushing it. But it seems that in the past, people have been too afraid to speak out. This is because the far-left seeks to gaslight us into either espousing their beliefs or shutting up about it, if we disagree. Nevertheless, it seems that there is an increasing willingness to point out that the emperor has no clothes. This is the reason why Twitter has targeted Babylon Bee, which is a site that makes fun of everyone, including the right. So far, Dillon isn’t backing down. Could this be the start of a backlash against the gaslighting?

Lara Logan goes off in epic rant on Ukraine, citing ‘fake NGOs,’ Vindman, Hunter Biden, Romney’s son

 Lara Logan goes off in epic rant on Ukraine, citing 'fake NGOs,' Vindman, Hunter Biden, Romney's son (bizpacreview.com)   

. . ."Logan continued to point out Ukraine’s history while taking a smack at retired Colonel Alexander Vindman, whom she called “moron” and said he was “obviously a spy.” She mocked his staged history endlessly and thoroughly. Then she astutely asked, “Where is counterintelligence?” and said “There’s a reason that man was escorted from the White House at the end of that theatrical trial,” referring to the impeachment of former President Donald Trump.

"She called George Soros’ Open Foundation Societies and “all these other fake NGOs that are nothing more than brown shirts and SS rolled into one” and who “were running their radical policy through the United States embassy, through USAID, using our tax dollars to slit our own throats.”

“Now they’re covering their tracks in Ukraine, not just hiding all the evidence of John Kerry’s son, Biden’s son, Nancy Pelosi’s son, Mitt Romney’s son… by the way, who is disgusting as the rest of them,” she raged.

"Logan spoke of the bio labs there, some of which were leftover from the Russians. She pointed out that the whole truth of that has not been aired either.". . .

SCOTUS Confirmation Circus Highlights Dems' Short Memories – PJ Media     . . ."The Dems are, of course, hoping for a big kumbaya moment despite their shameful behavior, especially during the last two confirmation hearings. Many on the right are clearly in the mood for some righteous anger and retaliation from the GOP. I shared my thoughts about that in another VIP column yesterday.

"Matt had a wonderful post yesterday about Ted Cruz’s opening remarks, where he delineated the bottom-feeding behavior of the Democrats in these hearings going all the way back to the ultimately unsuccessful hearings to confirm Robert Bork in 1987. Cruz went into such excruciating detail to make it clear that it’s only the Democrats who behave this way:. . ."

“It is only one side of the aisle that, with Justice Clarence Thomas, was so reprehensible that […] President George Herbert Walker Bush wrote at the time, quote, ‘what’s happening to Clarence Thomas is just plain horrible,’” Cruz continued.  “’All the groups that tried to beat him up on abortion, affirmative action have now come out of the woodwork, they’re trying to destroy a decent man.’ As Justice Thomas observed in that hearing, what happened there was, to use his words, ‘a high-tech lynching.’ And I would note the chairman who presided over that disgrace was Joe Biden.”

Cruz wasn’t finished. He brought up the Kavanaugh hearings next, calling them “one of the lowest moments in the history of this committee, where Democrats on this committee sat on allegations — didn’t refer them to the FBI, didn’t ask for investigations — hid them and then leaked them against the wishes of the complainant. And we began a circus that featured Spartacus moments, featured such nuts as Michael Avenatti.”

China having a grand old time mocking Joe Biden's 'peace' efforts in Ukraine

 American Thinker  "t's bad all over for the man who's "been wrong on nearly every major foreign policy and national security issue over the past four decades." as former CIA director Bob Gates famously put it in his memoirs.

"The United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia wouldn't take his phone calls. The European states are stepping forward as the chief problem solvers to the Ukraine dilemma. Venezuela apparently laughed in his face when he asked them to pump more oil. El Salvador's president tweeted about America as a nation in decline, rotting from within.". . .

‘Holy Smokes, You’re So Woke, Batman!’

 The American Spectator

How the Caped Crusader’s latest crimefighting caper is derailed by Critical Race.

"Matt Reeves’ The Batman (2022) is a beautiful disaster. Gotham is a rain-lashed living contradiction, with Times Square-sized LED billboards built into 19th century Gothic gargoyle-studded skyscrapers. The fight choreography features moves as brutal as Ben Affleck’s, or the Arkham videogame series. But beneath the superficial veneer of neo-noir lighting and the war drums of the score, is a rotten plot infested with progressive talking points. From the declining sales of DC’s comics, to the overt and covert racial politics of this newest Hollywood adaptation, the Dark Knight Detective is being damaged by the ideological obsessions of unimaginative writers.

"As a Batman aficionado, I am infuriated by the legacy media clapping like seals for The Batman’s “more diverse cast,” without buying the comics which keep the character’s legacy alive. But Zoë Kravitz’s casting as a black, bisexual, polyamorous Catwoman is as fraught with issues for progressives as it is for those who care about continuity.

"It is contemptible that the tale of tragedy turned heroism that Batman has been for over 80 years has fallen prey to the critical race theory narratives of contemporary politics.

"A great example of how the left eats its own is progressives’ complaints that Claudia Rankine’s police brutality poem Citizen focuses on black Americans and so racially excludes Latinos. The same logic goes for Kravitz’s Catwoman, whose casting erases the character’s Cuban heritage via Catwoman’s mother Maria. After she fled Castro’s communism, Maria Kyle’s refugee status was one of the reasons why Catwoman grew up impoverished and developed a talent for theft. A line by her illegitimate father alludes to this in the film: with Falcone inverting the comics’ criticism of socialist dictatorships by having the profit-driven villain joke “That’s why communism didn’t work: austerity.” In ascending the progressive stack of oppressed identities to make Catwoman black, Reeves and the rest of the film’s crew have erased a part of Catwoman’s canonical non-white heritage which was instrumental to her character.". . .

SJW calls female swimmer TRANSPHOBIC for not wanting to change in front of Lia Thomas in the locker room

America's social decline into silliness brings us ridicule by adversaries around the world who are deadly serious

Replying to @libsoftiktok  "Womans world cup in swimming 2026"

 OMG, make it STOP! SJW calls female swimmer TRANSPHOBIC for not wanting to change in front of Lia Thomas in the locker room (watch) – twitchy.com

"Is transphobic the new racist? Asking for a friend. Or is it the new ‘insurrectionist’? We can’t keep all of these insulting terms and ‘ists’ and ‘obics’ straight when it comes to whatever the current outrage of the day is. And women being made out to be the bad guys for not wanting to change in front of a biological male … that’s just stupid.

"Why are so many people comfortable making women do things they are uncomfortable with to make a biological male who thinks he’s a woman more comfortable? How is this fair on any level to female athletes?". . .

Liz Cheney Has Single-Handedly Destroyed Dick Cheney’s Reputation In Wyoming

 Liz Cheney Has Destroyed Dick Cheney's Reputation In Wyoming (thefederalist.com)

Liz Cheney is now courting the same voters who toppled a statue of her vice president father 15 years ago.

..."The crusade to allow Democrats to hijack the statewide Republican primary in favor of a Cheney signals a sharp turn in the family’s reputation from when Liz Cheney’s vice president father represented Wyoming’s conservative voters in the House for 10 years. After enjoying decades of political popularity in the state and cultivating a family legacy, the Cheney dynasty appears poised to end as the incumbent at-large congresswoman turns to Wyoming’s liberal voters in the northwest to send her back to Washington for a fourth term.

"According to a snapshot of the latest polling in the pivotal primary revealed by Axios’s Jonathan Swan, less than 2 in 5 GOP Wyoming voters reported a favorable opinion of former Vice President Dick Cheney. Nearly half, 48 percent, viewed Dick Cheney unfavorably.". . .
