‘Gunperson’ And 7 Other More Inclusive Terms To Use For Non-Binary Criminals | Babylon Bee

Image for article: 'Gunperson' And 7 Other More Inclusive Terms To Use For Non-Binary Criminals

When reporting on crime, it’s of paramount importance that journalists adhere to a strict code of ethics, which involves using AP-approved inclusionary terms to identify assailants of indeterminate gender. For example, if a person shoots and kills someone, and you can’t readily discern their gender, try identifying them as the most inclusive “gunperson.”

Here are some more inclusive terms to use when describing non-binary criminals:


Don’t Say: Hitman

Say: Hit-They

Designating contract killers as being of a specific gender would be more violent than any murder.


Don’t Say: Thief

Say: Non-Owning Individual

Thief” is an ugly word that provides little to no inclusion or consideration for the feelings or financial condition of the perpetrator.


Don’t Say: Sex Worker

Say: Gender Worker

“Sex worker” is passé. It may have been an upgrade from “prostitute,” but everyone now knows that “sex” and “gender” are not interchangeable terms. Use the right one.


Don’t Say: Kidnapper

Say: Themnapper

When you’re unsure of both the suspect’s and the victim’s gender or age, it’s best to use the most inclusive pronoun available.


Don’t Say: Rapist

Say: Non-Cis-Sexual-Assaulter

It’s important to distinguish rapists who operate outside of the typical societal boundaries of heteronormativity.


Don’t Say: Carjacker

Say: Carjacker/jiller

The presence of the term “jack” could confuse hearers into the misconception that only cis-males can steal vehicles at gunpoint. It’s time to expand people’s minds.


Don’t Say: Criminal

Say: Non-Conforming Law-Disregarder

While some people fit the traditional mold of obeying laws, science tells us that is not the case 100% of the time. Those who are more law-fluid must be included.


Any aspiring journalists out there should begin using the terms listed above immediately. What are some other inclusive terms for criminals? Post your suggestions in the comments below.

Peter LaBarbera is founder and president of Center for Morality Americans for Truth.  He’s a former reporter for the Washington Times, LifeSiteNews.comWND.com and a former contributing editor for Human Events.

It was during the Biden administration that we saw severe pressure placed upon businesses, schools, local governments, the entertainment industry, sports and others to advance the LGBTQ+ agenda.  Some of this has to do with the efforts of an activist organization known as the Human Rights Campaign (HRC).

This program is highlighted by an audio clip from Tyler O’Neil, the senior editor at the Daily Signal.  While he correctly notes that most people who identify as transgender don’t pose a threat, he asks what drives the hatred of those who do?  He believes the rhetoric of the Human Rights Campaign (HRC) is at least partly to blame.  He noted how the HRC suggests that data on transgender deaths reveals a higher homicide rate than the general population.  Tyler uses the HRC’s own statistics to prove conclusively that their assertion is false. 

As this program moves along, you’ll hear Peter comment on various news stories such as:

  • The tragic mass shooting in Canada by a person who identified as transgender.  
  • What exactly is the HRC and how does their Corporate Equality Index work?
  • The canceling of the 35th annual “Gay Days” in Orlando.  Is this a one year pause or a permanent move?
  • A Wyoming library was sued by a library director who was fired for refusing to follow a new book collection policy regarding sexually offensive books.  The insurance company decided to pay out rather than fight it.
  • The Trump administration says only the U.S. and POW-MIA flags can fly at national monuments, therefore the pride flag cannot fly at the Stonewall National Monument.

Detransitioner lawsuit win precedes declining support for transing kids | WINTERY KNIGHT

Exciting news last week for Christians and conservatives who are concerned about children being bullied into self-mutilation. A great victory has been achieved. The first ever lawsuit made by a detransitioner has succeeded. I’ve blogged before that the medical personnel who do these treatments and surgeries are only interested in one thing: MONEY. And when you take away their MONEY, a funny thing happens. They stop transing kids.

Here’s the story from The Federalist:

On Jan. 30, a New York State jury awarded a 22-year-old woman, Fox Varian, $2 million in damages for her 2019 “gender-affirming” double mastectomy, which she came to deeply regret. She was 16 years old at the time. This settlement against Varian’s psychologist and plastic surgeon is the first legal judgment imposed upon those performing such mutilations.

According to this article in the New York Post, the people who lost the lawsuit pushed bullied the parents with threats that the child would self-end:

Psychologist Kenneth Einhorn and surgeon Simon Chin were held responsible in Westchester County Supreme Court in White Plains for ignoring standards of care and procedural guardrails by pressuring the minor into addressing gender dysphoria with permanent surgery, the jury decided.

Lawyers for Varian pointed the finger at Einhorn, saying he “drove the train” and was “putting the idea in Fox’s head” that she needed to change her gender with surgery, according to the report.

Varian’s mother, Claire Deacon, testified that she was against the surgery, but consented to it out of fear her daughter would commit suicide, according to the outlet.

“This man was just so emphatic, and pushing and pushing, that I felt like there was no good decision,” Deacon told The Epoch Times.

That’s the standard approach, because they have to get that insurance money somehow! According to the Federalist article, there are at least 5,200 teen girls who have had their breasts removed by adults who got paid to do it. And there are 27 other detransitioner lawsuits still waiting on a verdict. All it takes is one win, though and suddenly the medical associations that approved of these surgeries are changing their tunes.

The Society for Evidence-Based Gender Medicine (SEGM) reports:

In a watershed moment, on February 3, 2026, the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) issued an official position statement recommending that a key step of “gender-affirming” care—surgical intervention—be delayed until the patient is “at least 19 years old.” The recommendation against performing gender-affirming procedures in minors extends to all types of gender-related surgeries, including breast/chest, genital, and facial surgeries. However, the ASPS statement goes much farther than merely advising surgeons to delay surgery. It raises serious evidentiary and ethical concerns about the entire gender-affirming treatment pathway for youth, including social transition, puberty blockers, and cross-sex hormones.

But that’s not the only one, here’s another, reported in the far-left Washington Post: (archived)

The American Medical Association and the American Academy of Pediatrics recommend transition surgeries primarily for adults but say adolescents can receive them on a case-by-case basis.

The AMA appears to now be taking a more cautious stance. A spokesperson for the AMA said Tuesday that “the evidence for gender-affirming surgical intervention in minors is insufficient for us to make a definitive statement” but that it agrees with ASPS that surgeries for minors should be generally deferred to adulthood in the absence of clear evidence.

Was the AMA’s previous stance on transing the kids based in scientific evidence? Well, the AMA’s previous stance contradicted years of research I’ve covered on this blog, including:

The UK’s Cass Review, which I discussed in my May 2025 post linked above, is a gold-standard analysis. It found no consistent mental health benefits from puberty blockers or hormones, yet the AMA pushed these treatments regardless. I’m blogging about the gold standard studies, but AMA people thought that ordinary people were not following the science. We are. Christians and conservatives bound our worldviews off of what science tells us. We are not being swayed by Big Medicine and Big LGBT to suppress the science. The AMA argued gender-affirming care reduces distress, but the Cass Review and other studies show no consistent mental health benefits.

I just think it’s amazing that these medical doctors who threaten parents with their child self-ending and bragged about how transing the kids was “a big money-maker” are now suddenly very cautious. All it took was a 2-million-dollar lawsuit and suddenly, scientific evidence matters after all. And that’s what Christians had been saying all along – let the scientific evidence inform our decisions about moral issues. It shouldn’t just be be a situation of wanting insurance money.

Many Christians think that people who reject Christianity can be trusted to make good moral decisions. “Of course my doctor would never mutilate my child for money” Christian think. “No need for me to study and make a case against abortion, same-sex marriage, and transgenderism”. Well, not so fast.

When a person kicks God out of his or her worldview, it actually does have a big effect on how that person sees morality. It doesn’t matter that the doctor looks nice, dresses nice, sounds nice, and has fancy degrees. When God is gone from a doctor’s worldview, you cannot expect them to behave morally. And that should be a concern to all Christians and conservatives, because we all get old one day. We will all have to rely on health care providers.

We judge too much by appearances. We think a rich doctor must be morally good. It’s just not the case. It’s our job as Christians to challenge everyone to think more closely about moral issues like abortion, same-sex marriage, transgenderism, etc. We have to study to get the evidence and then we have to not care about the loss of reputation.

EXECUTIVE NEWS SUMMARY

The Editors

  • TrumpRx launches: Americans can now visit TrumpRx.gov to search for discounts on some of the most popular and overpriced prescription drugs. The government website allows consumers to print a discount coupon for Ozempic, for instance, offering 66-81% off, which can be redeemed at a local pharmacy. This is the result of President Donald Trump’s negotiations with pharmaceutical companies to secure most-favored-nation pricing for Americans. Since U.S. pharmaceutical companies produce most innovative new drugs on the market, it is perhaps surprising that foreign countries have been getting better deals on those drugs. Americans with good health insurance likely already have better deals than what TrumpRx offers, but for those with bare-minimum plans or no coverage at all, the website offers a significant improvement.
  • Jobs report: The official January jobs report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics has been postponed to February 11 due to the recent government shutdown. However, a survey conducted by the firm Challenger, Gray & Christmas found that employers cut 108,435 jobs last month. That total is the highest number of jobs cut in January since 2009. Furthermore, compared to last year, roughly 50,000 jobs were cut. While these numbers look concerning, JPMorgan suggested that the totals were misleading, noting that “this January was much more similar to recent January values than it was to 2009.” A report from ADP Research estimates that just 22,000 jobs were added to the private sector last month, yet Evercore ISI estimates that payroll employment increased by 75,000. A clearer economic picture should be known next week.
  • Harris rebrands: Former Vice President and failed 2024 Democrat presidential candidate Kamala Harris is launching her new digital “Headquarters” in an effort to rebrand herself following her dismal performance against Donald Trump. Harris has partnered with People for the American Way to reach the “next-generation” of voters ahead of the 2026 midterms. Harris, infamous for her word salad non-answers to questions, coupled with a maniacal laugh, would seem to be more of a political liability to Democrats’ electoral ambitions than an asset. She desperately wants to play a role in the American political landscape, but it may end up being little more than that of a clown.
  • Illegal truckers kill four more Americans: Kyrgyzstani illegal immigrant Bekzhan Beishekeev killed four Amish men when he crossed into the left lane and struck the van they were riding in on Tuesday. A father, two of his sons, and a family friend are dead, and more are injured because of the incredible number of illegals with commercial driver’s licenses plaguing American roads. Beishekeev was arrested on the scene under a bench warrant related to an ICE detainer. This stretch of rural Indiana state road has seen a significant increase in semi-traffic in recent months, likely to evade a nearby weigh station. Truckers used to avoid weigh stations if their haul was sketchy, but now the drivers, and even their companies, are illegitimate. Chameleon carriers are a network of trucking companies run by Kyrgyzstani drivers that use magnetic logos and bogus DOT numbers to evade authorities and continue driving after crashes.
  • Dem Senate candidate insists his hands are clean in Iryna Zarutska case: Just because DeCarlos Brown Jr., the monster caught on video stabbing Iryna Zarutska to death on a train in North Carolina, was given a lenient judgment at the same time that then-Gov. Roy Cooper released thousands of criminals onto the streets due to COVID-19 does not mean that Cooper is to blame for Zarutska’s death, insists Cooper’s Senate campaign. In September 2020, Brown was released from custody and sentenced to a year of supervision before being arrested again in February 2021. That month, a hearing officer decided to allow supervision to continue rather than return him to prison. That same day was also the cutoff date for 3,500 violent and nonviolent prisoners set to be released. Cooper insists these matters are unrelated and that since Brown completed minimum sentence after minimum sentence, justice demanded his release.
  • Karen Bass hijacked Palisades report: The disaster of the preventable Pacific Palisades fire, now a year past, should have cost Los Angeles Democrat Mayor Karen Bass her job. Bass’s incompetent leadership was exposed to the world, yet she’s still living in the mayor’s mansion. Indeed, Bass has focused her efforts on directing others to conceal her incompetence and missteps. This is evidenced by recent remarks from LA Fire Chief Jaimie Moore, who admitted, “It is now clear that multiple drafts [of the report] were edited to soften language and reduce explicit criticism of the department leadership in that final report.” While Bass has denied any involvement in altering the Palisades fire report, two sources within the mayor’s office dispute her claim.
  • Medal of Honor awarded: Having sacrificed himself to shield and save others, Army Staff Sgt. Michael Ollis is finally being awarded the Medal of Honor. Ollis was 24 when he was killed by a suicide bombing in Afghanistan in 2013, using his body to protect a Polish army officer and other American officers who were on the base. The soldier’s sister, Kimberly Ollis-Losciavo, has been seeking recognition for her brother’s brave action but was denied by both the Obama and Biden administrations. President Trump reopened the case and called Ollis’s parents with the news of their son’s award. Kimberly responded to the recognition as “bittersweet validation … after 13 years of really not being validated by the federal government,” but noted that they are “thrilled.” Following Ollis’s death, the family worked to raise money for military-related causes and was also able to get a Staten Island ferry named after Ollis.
  • Imani Kelif admits that he has XY chromosomes: “I have never felt a punch like this,” said an Italian Olympic female boxer after spending 46 seconds in the ring with Imane Khelif. Readers may remember the controversy over the “transgender” boxer in the 2024 Olympics; of course, it’s only now, as the 2026 Winter Olympics begin, that the truth comes out. Not only has Khelif now admitted in an interview to having a Y chromosome, but also the SRY gene carried by that chromosome that triggers male sexual development. Despite Leftmedia and the Algerian government’s insistence that Khelif was a woman — labeling anyone suggesting otherwise a transphobic bigot — it turns out our eyes weren’t lying. Khelif was born with a rare condition, and doctors likely declared Khelif a girl due to malformed genitalia. However, with the onset of puberty, Khelif developed as a typical male.
  • OPM readies new rule making firing federal workers easier: The Office of Personnel Management has now made it easier for President Trump to fire federal workers at will. On Thursday, OPM finalized a new rule that creates a new category of career federal employees whose positions are directly policy-related. OPM Director Scott Kupor explained, “This rule preserves merit-based hiring, veterans’ preference, and whistleblower protections while ensuring senior career officials responsible for advancing President Trump’s agenda can be held to the same performance expectations that exist throughout much of the American workforce.” This new rule will apply to roughly 50,000 federal workers. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt welcomed the new rule, stating, “I think if people aren’t doing their jobs, if they aren’t showing up for work, if they’re not working on behalf of this president, they’re not welcome to work for him at all.”

FEATURED ANALYSIS

Major Medical Groups Are Changing Policy on Treating Gender-Confused Kids

Emmy Griffin

The cultural protections for the diabolical practice of “gender-affirming care” are starting to crumble. This week, the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) issued a position statement against gender affirmation for minors. The timing is fascinating, because Fox Varian — a detransitioner — recently won a $2 million malpractice lawsuit against her psychologist and surgeon.

You’d think that as representatives of plastic surgeons, the ASPS would only disavow the part they usually deal with: gender mutilation surgery. But no — the group also came out against cross-sex hormones for gender-confused kids.

The society wrote:

ASPS concludes there is insufficient evidence demonstrating a favorable risk-benefit ratio for the pathway of gender-related endocrine and surgical interventions in children and adolescents. ASPS recommends that surgeons delay gender-related breast/chest, genital, and facial surgery until a patient is at least 19 years old.

It also added this caveat, which concerns the fact that it believes minors are not in a position to understand the life-long consequences of what they are asking for:

ASPS acknowledges that many plastic surgical clinical recommendations and standards rely on lower levels of evidence compared to those of other medical specialties. However, ethical decision-making in medicine does not depend on evidence quality alone, but on the relationship between evidence uncertainty, anticipated benefit, potential harm, and patient vulnerability.

This very clear and firm stance against the brutal and barbaric practice of “gender-affirming care” for children won the praise of Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. “We commend the American Society of Plastic Surgeons for standing up to the overmedicalization lobby and defending sound science,” Kennedy triumphantly said. “By taking this stand, they are helping protect future generations of American children from irreversible harm.”

Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services Administrator Mehmet Oz also applauded ASPS’s move. “When the medical ethics textbooks of the future are written, they’ll look back on sex-rejecting procedures for minors the way we look back on lobotomies,” Oz stated. “I applaud the American Society of Plastic Surgeons for placing itself on the right side of history by opposing these dangerous, unscientific experiments.”

The ASPS isn’t alone in opposing pediatric gender medicine. The American Medical Association, which hasn’t entirely capitulated, nevertheless told National Review, “The AMA agrees with ASPS that surgical interventions in minors should be generally deferred to adulthood.”

For the AMA, this is a major concession. It was originally pro-“gender affirmation,” including surgical interventions, until five seconds ago. As The Daily Wire pointed out, the AMA stated after the Supreme Court’s United States v. Skrmetti decision last June that it was “disappointed” because it “opens the door to further intrusion into patient care.” That SCOTUS ruling essentially green-lighted state bans on child gender mutilation surgery.

Children’s Minnesota Hospital has also announced that it will no longer be providing pediatric gender care, though its reasoning isn’t as altruistic as ASPS’s. CMH decided to discontinue giving kids cross-sex hormones, puberty blockers, and gender mutilation surgeries because of “threats from the federal government.” Whatever makes these people actually do the right thing, I guess.

Whether doctors are doing the right thing out of fear of lawsuits, threats from the federal government, or simply out of ethical inclination, it’s a major victory in the fight for sanity.

The fight is far from over, however. Author J.K. Rowling had a poignant response to the Fox Varian verdict, posting:

This will go down in history as one of the worst medical scandals of all time. Adults inside and outside the medical profession sold troubled young people like Varian the idea that all of their complex trauma would be resolved by removing healthy body parts.

As more and more detransitioners arrive in court, the public will learn the full extent of the harm done to kids in the name of an ideology. Clinicians performing these ‘treatments’ will go down in history as barbarous activists who betrayed a sacred oath: to do no harm. But we should never forget how many people outside the medical profession urged these young people on, gleefully assuring them that anyone advising caution was an evil bigot. There are people in elitist professions like publishing and academia, not to mention politicians and celebrities with young fan bases, who did all they could to champion the idea of gender identity, and kept pushing it even as the evidence of harm mounted. They’re just as culpable as the clinicians. Too lazy to think more deeply than the fashionable mantras that got them social media likes, too arrogant to look at evidence from anyone outside their political bubble, they’ve slurred whistleblowers and attacked anyone with valid questions. In doing so, they’ve created a cultural climate without which this appalling tragedy could not have taken place.

Never forget, because only by learning the lesson can we stop this happening again.

Other detransitioners have also pointed out that while these victories are palpable, they didn’t come soon enough to save them.

Unfortunately, other important medical bodies have actually doubled down on their endorsement of this experimental, damaging, and irreversible method of treating gender pathology. The American Academy of Pediatrics stated, “The A.A.P. continues to hold to the principle that patients, their families and their physicians — not politicians — should be the ones to make decisions together about what care is best for them.”

The hubris of these medical professionals continuing to align themselves with the “transing the kids” lobby is ultimately going to prove their undoing. Detransitioners will be the key to bringing down their pseudoscientific experimentation on kids.

19 Blue States Sue Trump Admin to Preserve Right to Perform Child Sex Changes | The Gateway Pundit

A total of nineteen blue states are suing the Trump administration in a bid to protect the right to perform child sex changes.

Last week, Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said he would cut off Medicare and Medicaid funding to any provider that offers so-called gender-affirming treatment to minors.

“Under my leadership, and answering President Trump’s call to action, the federal government will do everything in its power to stop unsafe, irreversible practices that put our children at risk,” Kennedy said at the time.

The Oregon-led lawsuit claims that the decision “exceeds the Secretary’s authority and violates the Administrative Procedure Act and the Medicare and Medicaid statutes.”

Oregon Attorney General Dayfield argued that child sex changes are an essential form of healthcare.

His office said in a press release:

Attorney General Dan Rayfield today led a coalition of 18 other states and the District of Columbia in suing to ensure the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) cannot threaten providers with a so-called declaration that baselessly and unlawfully attempts to limit a family’s ability to work with their providers to make the healthcare decisions without interference from the federal government.

The declaration falsely claims that certain forms of gender-affirming care are “unsafe and ineffective” and threatens to punish any doctors, hospitals, and clinics that continue to provide it with exclusion from the federal Medicare and Medicaid programs.

“By targeting Oregon providers, HHS is putting care at risk and forcing families to choose between their personal health care choices and their doctor’s ability to practice,” said Attorney General Rayfield.

“Healthcare decisions belong with families and their healthcare providers, not the government.”

Among the states signed up to the lawsuit are California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Wisconsin, Washington, and D.C.

During a press conference last week, Kennedy ripped into the so-called medical experts who continue to advocate for young people making decisions that are dangerous and irreversible:

Doctors across the country now provide needless and irreversible sex rejecting procedures that violate their sacred Hippocratic Oath, endangering the very lives they’re sworn to safeguard.”

The American Medical Association, the American Academy of Pediatrics, peddled the lie that chemical and surgical sex rejecting procedures could be good for children who suffer from gender dysphoria.”

They betrayed the estimated 300,000 American youth ages 13 to 17, conditioned to believe that sex can be changed.

They betrayed their Hippocratic Oath to do no harm. So-called gender affirming care has done psychological and physical damage to vulnerable young people.”

This is not medicine, it is malpractice.

‘Children Are Innocent and They Need Our Protection’: HHS Moves to Eliminate Trans Targeting of Children | Harbingers Daily »

After four years of transgender activism from Joe Biden’s White House, President Donald Trump and his administration are moving to further shield children from harmful gender transition procedures. On Thursday, Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced new rules that would bar hospitals that carry out gender transition surgeries on minors from receiving Medicaid and Medicare funding.

In a press release, HHS described gender transition procedures as “sex-rejecting procedures … that expose young people to irreversible harm.” The agency clarified, “These procedures include pharmaceutical or surgical interventions of specified types that attempt to align a child’s physical appearance or body with an asserted identity different from their sex.” The new rules would ensure that hospitals cannot commit gender transition procedures against children as a prerequisite to participating in Medicaid or Medicare programs.

“Nearly all U.S. hospitals participate in Medicare and Medicaid and this action is designed to ensure that the U.S. government will not be in business with organizations that intentionally or unintentionally inflict permanent harm on children,” the HHS press release declared. “Sex-rejecting procedures on children — which include puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and surgical operations — expose them to irreversible damage, including infertility, impaired sexual function, diminished bone density, altered brain development, and other irreversible physiological effects.”

“Under my leadership, and answering President Trump’s call to action, the federal government will do everything in its power to stop unsafe, irreversible practices that put our children at risk,” Kennedy said in a statement. “This Administration will protect America’s most vulnerable. Our children deserve better — and we are delivering on that promise.” HHS will also bar Medicaid and Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) funds from covering gender transition procedures for minors.

In a press conference announcing the proposed new rule, Kennedy said, “Doctors assume a solemn obligation to protect children. Yet doctors across the country now provide needless and irreversible sex rejecting procedures that violate their sacred Hippocratic Oath by endangering the very lives that they are sworn to safeguard.” He charged that professional organizations like the American Medical Association and the American Academy of Pediatrics promoted flawed, unsound, and ideologically-motivated research and “peddled the lie that chemical and surgical sex-rejecting procedures could be good for children who suffer from gender dysphoria.”

Kennedy also contended that the organizations “betrayed the estimated 300,000 American youth, ages 13 to 17, conditioned to believe that sex can be changed. They betrayed their Hippocratic Oath to do no harm. So-called gender affirming care has inflicted lasting physical and psychological damage on vulnerable young people.”

“This is not medicine. It is malpractice. We’re done with junk science driven by ideological pursuits, not the well-being of children,” Kennedy declared. He touted an HHS report released one month ago that found that gender transition procedures for children were based on “very low-quality evidence” and caused “extensive” harm to children. “So today, we are taking six decisive actions guided by gold-standard science and the week-one executive order from President Trump to protect children from chemical and surgical mutilation,” he announced.

Kennedy also signed a formal declaration clarifying that gender transition procedures for minors “do not meet professionally recognized standards of health care,” which could potentially open the door to legal or professional measures against hospitals carrying out gender transition procedures on children. The Health secretary confirmed, “Sex-rejecting procedures are neither safe nor effective treatment for children with gender dysphoria.”

HHS Deputy Secretary Jim O’Neill also spoke at the press conference, simply stating, “Men are men. Men can never become women. Women are women. Women can never become men. Children are innocent and they need our protection.” His remarks were met with applause from those in attendance.

In addition to the new rules surrounding Medicaid and Medicare funding, HHS is also warning the manufacturers of “breast binders” marketed to children that they are committing “significant regulatory violations and how they should take prompt corrective action,” terminating grants that funds “transgender” research involving minors, and undoing a Biden-era policy which would have officially classified gender dysphoria as a medical disability, therefore barring hospitals and health care practitioners from committing gender transition procedures under nondiscrimination statutes.

“The Biden administration abused a law that was never intended to require health care providers or health programs to support transgender surgeries for minors,” O’Neill said. “Our rule would restore regulatory clarity and ensure that organizations receiving federal funds can set evidence-based policies without fear of violating federal civil rights requirements.”

In comments to The Washington Stand, Joy Stockbauer, policy analyst at Family Research Council’s Center for Human Dignity, said, “I applaud this move to protect the vulnerable from these twisted gender transition procedures. It’s difficult enough to be a young person in the digital age without being targeted by life-altering procedures that prey on one’s greatest insecurities and confusions.” She added, “Let’s let kids be kids again, free from the agendas and pressures of sick adults — and let’s encourage young people to see themselves as they really are, as image bearers of the God of the universe.”

RFK Jr. Unveils Sweeping Protections to Shield Children from Irreversible Gender Experiments | The Gateway Pundit

Speaker at a podium with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services logo, flanked by American and state flags during a formal event.

Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced groundbreaking measures that will effectively halt the dangerous practice of so-called “gender-affirming care” for minors across the United States.

Kennedy laid out a series of executive actions and proposed rules designed to end the chemical and surgical mutilation of vulnerable young people confused about their gender identity.

RFK Jr. announced at the HHS press conference:

“Doctors assume a solemn obligation to protect children. Yet doctors across the country now provide needless and irreversible sex-rejecting procedures that violate their sacred Hippocratic oaths by endangering the very lives they are sworn to safeguard.

The American Medical Association and the American Academy of Pediatrics peddled the lie that chemical and surgical sex-rejecting procedures could be good for children who suffer from gender dysphoria.

They betrayed the estimated 300,000 American youth, ages 13 to 17, conditioned to believe that sex can be changed. They betrayed their Hippocratic oath to do no harm.

So-called “gender-affirming care” has inflicted lasting physical and psychological damage on vulnerable young people. This is not medicine; it is malpractice. We’re done with junk science driven by ideological pursuits, not the well-being of children.

A peer-reviewed report published by the HHS Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health last month confirms that sex-rejecting procedures impose medical dangers and lasting harm on children who receive these interventions.

So today, we are taking six decisive actions, guided by gold-standard science and the week-one executive order from President Trump, to protect children from chemical and surgical mutilation.

This morning, I signed a declaration: Sex-rejecting procedures are neither safe nor effective treatments for children with gender dysphoria.”

WATCH:

The cornerstone of the announcement includes two powerful proposed rules:

  • Prohibiting federal Medicaid reimbursement for any gender-affirming procedures—such as puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, or surgeries—provided to individuals under 18.
  • Barring all Medicare and Medicaid funding to any hospital that offers pediatric gender-affirming care, ensuring that facilities reliant on federal dollars prioritize healing over harm.

These measures build on President Trump’s Day One executive order rejecting federal support for child “transitions” and come on the heels of strong congressional action, including the House passage of Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s bill criminalizing such procedures for minors and Rep. Dan Crenshaw’s legislation blocking Medicaid coverage.

Secretary of War Hegseth Reviews Biden-Era COVID-Vaccine Discharges for Upgrade, Reinstatement, and Benefits Restoration | The Gateway Pundit

The War Department is reviewing discharges issued during the Biden administration involving service members separated under the COVID-19 vaccine mandate. Affected service members are seeking discharge upgrades, restoration of back pay and benefits, reinstatement to their former rank, and restoration of GI Bill education eligibility.

On August 24, 2021, Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin issued a memorandum requiring all U.S. service members to begin COVID-19 vaccination, even though President Joe Biden, who was commander in chief at the time, never issued a direct order mandating vaccination for the military.

Critics raised legal and constitutional concerns, arguing that such a mandate should have come from the president or Congress, particularly because federal law requires informed consent for drugs administered under Emergency Use Authorization unless the president grants a national security waiver.

Although the FDA approved the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine one day earlier, most vaccines available to the military at the time were still distributed under EUA, and no presidential waiver of informed consent was issued.

The requirement applied across all branches of the U.S. military, with implementation deadlines extending through late 2021 and early 2022. Between August 24, 2021, and January 10, 2023, approximately 8,400 service members were discharged for refusing the vaccine. While most received honorable discharges, more than 4,000 were given general discharges under honorable conditions, which made them ineligible for GI Bill education benefits. Some received other-than-honorable characterizations.

Thousands of additional service members faced career consequences short of discharge, including denial of promotions, blocked reenlistment, removal from training programs, administrative punishment, and, in some cases, loss of security clearances.

Requests for religious and medical exemptions became a major point of dispute. Tens of thousands of religious exemption requests were submitted across the services, while approval rates remained extremely low, often cited as less than one percent. Medical exemptions were also infrequently granted. Service members challenged the mandate on multiple grounds, including claims that Secretary Austin exceeded his authority, that troops were forced to take EUA vaccines without lawful consent, and that religious exemptions were improperly denied in violation of federal law and the Religious Freedom Restoration Act. Multiple federal courts later ruled that aspects of the military’s exemption process violated service members’ rights.

Despite ongoing litigation, the Department of Defense enforced the mandate for more than a year, leading to disciplinary action and the involuntary discharge of more than 8,000 service members by early 2023, many of them wartime veterans nearing retirement. In December 2022, Congress included language in the Fiscal Year 2023 National Defense Authorization Act directing the Department of Defense to rescind the COVID-19 vaccine requirement. The mandate was formally terminated on January 10, 2023.

President Trump signed Executive Order 14184 on January 27, 2025, directing the Department of War to reinstate service members discharged for vaccine refusal with full back pay, benefits, rank restoration, and GI Bill eligibility. In a December 6 memorandum, Secretary of War Pete Hegseth directed the military services to proactively review these cases and upgrade discharges where appropriate, stating that service members who acted based on personal or religious convictions should not have been separated with less-than-honorable characterizations.

Under the directive, former service members are not required to apply for reconsideration. The department will independently identify eligible individuals and forward their records to the appropriate discharge review boards. Eligibility is limited to those discharged solely for vaccine refusal who received a general discharge.

Cases involving additional factors, such as misconduct, may not qualify for automatic relief, though individuals may still apply directly to review boards with supporting evidence. All former service members whose records are upgraded will be notified by mail, and applications already submitted will continue to be processed and expedited.

As of November 2025, nearly 900 discharges had been upgraded, with more than 3,000 cases remaining under review through an accelerated Board for Correction of Military Records process. The Department of War has restored GI Bill benefits to 899 veterans who were previously ineligible due to discharge characterization.

The Department of Veterans Affairs has announced that thousands more may regain eligibility as additional cases are reviewed and has begun notifying veterans whose discharges have already been upgraded. Once a discharge is upgraded to fully honorable, veterans may reapply for education benefits through the VA. The review effort remains ongoing, with mandatory progress reports required every 13 months.

The Trans Gravy Train | CultureWatch

There is heaps of money to be made in the trans movement:

When you think about it, basically all the terrible social ills found in the West today have one main driving factor behind them: the love of money and the lust to get rich quick, with a minimal amount of work and effort. No wonder Paul said that the “love of money is the root of all evil” (1 Timothy 6:10). Consider just some of these evil activities:

-Drug dealers getting people hooked on illicit drugs.
-The sex industry getting people hooked on porn, prostitution and so on.
-The human trafficking cartels getting rich off the enslavement of others.
-Big Pharma pushing drugs instead of cures.
-Big Tobacco and the nicotine fix.

The list goes on and on. And there is plenty of money to be made in other areas, especially the trans mafia. So many groups are involved here, seeking to convince innocent children and young people that they are somehow in the wrong body, and if they or their parents cough up a small fortune, all their problems will be fixed.

Mat Staver, the Founder and Chairman of Liberty Counsel in America has just penned an eye-opening piece about what a cash-cow the trans industry is. They are making millions while destroying the lives of kids and others. Here is what he writes:

There’s a lot of money to be made from preventing gender-confused people from achieving true healing. Perhaps that’s why more than 100 cities and states across the United States have caved to the “gender-affirming care” industry by banning Christian change counseling. Christian change counseling has been proven to heal gender dysphoria and confusion in children and adults. But instead of healing, many cities and states are forcing gender dysphoria patients into the financially lucrative, but often deadly, “gender” abyss.

The U.S. Supreme Court is now considering Chiles v. Salazar, to decide if cities and states can ban this counseling. Liberty Counsel set up this case for the High Court, overturning 23 bans in FL, GA, and AL.

“You can make two, three, four times as much money being a prescriber than a therapist,” says Daniel Carlat, M.D., a clinical professor of psychiatry at Tufts University. In his book, Unhinged: The Trouble with Psychiatry, Dr. Carlat exposed how and why the mental health industry has largely abandoned “talk therapy” (like Christian change counseling) and stopped focusing on healing individuals and instead focuses on the far more lucrative tact of simply drugging the patients. 

The full scope of the crisis can be seen in so-called “gender-affirming care,” where patients become medical and pharmaceutical customers for life. That’s because even after undergoing outrageously expensive mutilating surgeries, patients must continue taking hormones, and often antidepressants, for the rest of their lives. So-called “gender-affirming care” costs millions over the lifetime of the patient. Big Pharma and the medical industry are more than happy to cash in. 

Five-thousand dollars per month in drugs and appointments alone.

-400-800/month for counseling fees: First come the counseling visits, with fees anywhere from 200-400 dollars per visit. 

-500/month for antidepressant drugs: Then come the anti-depressant/anxiety drugs which can cost more than 500 per month. Studies show that nearly two-thirds of all “gender care” patients take daily mental health medications for the long term. 

-3,000/month for puberty blockers: Prepubescent children are put on puberty blockers until their bodies are “ready” for cross-sex hormones. 

-500/month FOR LIFE for cross-sex hormones: After puberty, gender-confused patients are prescribed cross-sex hormones, which they will have to take for the rest of their lives. 

Staver continues:

Outrageously expensive designer surgeries. . .

Mutilating plastic surgery can run into hundreds of thousands of dollars per patient, often exceeding 1 million dollars over a lifetime. So-called “Female to Male” surgery: 350,000 dollars, NOT INCLUDING the cost of operating room fees, anesthesiology, hospital stays, and surgical medications, the total of which often cost nearly as much as the surgery itself.

-Phalloplasty: 150,000.

-Facial masculinization surgery: up to 100,000.

-Hysterectomy: 27,000.

-Penile implant: 20,000.

-Double mastectomy: 17,000.

-Body masculinization: 14,000.

-Laser hair removal from surgical sites: 9,000.

-Testicular prosthesis implants: 4,000.

So-called “Male to Female” surgery costs: 500,000 dollars, NOT INCLUDING the cost of operating room fees, anesthesiology, hospital stays, and surgical medications, the total of which often cost nearly as much as the surgery itself. 

-Vaginoplasty: up to 300,000. 

-Facial feminization surgery: up to 100,000. 

-Vulvoplasty: 20,000. 

-Labiaplasty: 15,000. 

-Breast implants: 10,000-20,000. 

-Body feminization surgery: 19,500. 

-Laser hair removal surgery: 9,000. 

-Orchiectomy: 8,000. 

-Tracheal shave (reduces size of Adam’s apple): 5,000. 

With money like that on the line, no wonder so many are fighting to BAN Christian counseling! HEALING people of gender dysphoria ends an entire industry’s income stream. Perhaps that is why so many in that God-forsaken industry are fighting for MORE Christian counseling bans — because Christian counseling HEALS gender dysphoria without drugs or surgeries. https://lc.org/newsroom/details/251208-pharmas-trans-cash-generator

Image of Sacrificial Lambs: A Liberal Reporter Exposes How the Progressive Left Harms Children in the Name of Gender Ideology
Sacrificial Lambs: A Liberal Reporter Exposes How the Progressive Left Harms Children in the Name of Gender Ideology by Bartholomew, Anita (Author)

Another voice that has been sounding the alarm on this is Anita Bartholomew. I have quoted before from her very important book, Sacrificial Lambs: A Liberal Reporter Exposes How the Progressive Left Harms Children in the Name of Gender Ideology (Pitchstone Publishing, 2025). She discusses all the groups conspiring together to promote this:

A majority of the rainbows-and-unicorns transgenderism promotion has been done for free by virtually every major media organization, a good chunk of the entertainments industry, almost all medical associations, almost every liberal college and university, every liberal and progressive K-12 public school system, and most so-called progressive political figures. (pp. 213-214)

She also looks at all the money behind the trans revolution, and then says this:

I’ve spent countless hours pondering the question: how did so many different people and organizations buy into and help sustain the trans craze, despite the abject absurdity of it all, despite its destructiveness, despite its contradicting (with zero evidence) almost everything about sex that we know to be true? I’ve examined all the theories and looked into all the groups that have been singled out by other journalists and authors, and I’ve concluded that it’s not any single group or individual or idea or incentive.

It’s all of them.

Gender ideology is bolstered and held together by a web of unlikely allies: the wealthy transvestic fetishists and autogynephiles; the indoctrinated educators; the established nonprofits seeking new sources of revenue; the moms and dads who’ve “affirmed” their children and desperately need for it to have been the right call; the medical and mental health professionals profiting from trans-related services; the kids who’ve been purposely confused by their elders; the gays and lesbians who see the T as part of their tribe; the college-educated social justice warriors; all the other “sexual minorities,” including the most perverted, demanding understanding and acceptance; the legacy media that report trans insanity as if it were Truth itself; and the army of virtue signalers whose interest is almost entirely based on a narcissistic desire for high fives and attaboys.

Only such a grotesquely idiosyncratic coalition could keep the madness going for as long as it has, cross thousands of miles and more than a dozen countries. (pp. 214-215)

Activist groups with activist agendas, coupled with the never-ending desire to make heaps of money, are what really lie behind the trans tsunami. We must do all we can to resist it, before we lose our culture and destroy our women and children.

Postscript: The Australian connection

A few days ago a lengthy and quite important article appeared in the Australian newspaper on the trans behemoth. Titled, “How the ABC’s pursuit of platinum status with ACON put its integrity on the line,” the piece began this way:

This year the ABC celebrated a sweet victory. After years of dogged persistence, the national broadcaster achieved platinum status for its commitment to trans rights. The media giant had patiently jumped through every hoop set for it by the organisation once known as the NSW Aids Council, now reborn as LGBTQ+advocacy group ACON.

Hundreds of major public institutions and corporations have signed up to the lobby group’s radical trans agenda through its workplace benchmarking scheme. Only one organisation could offer ACON the potential to reach millions of Australians every day, an audience relying on it for their news and information, trusting it would uphold its sworn pledge to be independent and impartial. And far from being a reluctant bride, the ABC was paying ACON for the privilege.

For those concerned about what the media giant puts to air – and what it doesn’t – the real winner at this watershed moment was clear. It wasn’t the organisation receiving the trophy, it was the organisation handing it out. Australia’s most powerful trans lobby group had well and truly captured the national broadcaster.

If you are wondering why the trans tidal wave seems so relentless and so overwhelming, this is a good part of your answer.

Biden Forgets the Name of His Black Lesbian White House Press Secretary During LGBTQ+ Victory Institute Speech (VIDEO) | The Gateway Pundit

Joe Biden emerged from hiding on Friday to deliver remarks at a forum hosted by the LGBTQ+ Victory Institute.

Biden received the Chris Abele Impact Award for building the most LGBTQ+ inclusive administration in US history.

“The LGBTQ+ Victory Institute—the only national organization dedicated to elevating out LGBTQ leaders at all levels of government—is proud to announce today that President Joe Biden will receive the Chris Abele Impact Award to honor his historic role in championing LGBTQ+ rights and for his leadership in achieving the most LGBTQ+ inclusive administration in U.S. history,” the organization said.

“President Biden will be the third recipient of the award in the Institute’s history,” the organization said.

“President Biden has shown unwavering commitment to ensuring LGBTQ+ people can participate fully and openly in our democracy,” said Evan Low, LGBTQ+ Victory Institute President & CEO.

Biden was awarded for having a black lesbian press secretary, a gay Transportation Secretary, a nonbinary Department of Energy official who is into “pup kink,” and a transgender Assistant Secretary for Health.

They weren’t qualified to serve in those positions, but all that matters is that they were gay, nonbinary, or transgender.

At one point, Biden forgot the name of his lesbian White House Press Secretary during his speech to the LGBTQ+ crowd.

Biden’s press secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre, boasted about being the first black, lesbian immigrant White House spokesperson.

Recall that on the first day of her job as White House Press Secretary in May 2022, Karine Jean-Pierre wanted the reporters in the briefing room to know how special she was because she is a black lesbian.

“I am obviously acutely aware that my presence at this podium represents a few firsts. I am a black, gay, immigrant woman—the first of all three of those to hold this position, I would not be here today if not for generations of barrier-breaking people before me. I stand on their shoulders.” she said.

Biden was so proud of his black lesbian spokeswoman that he forgot her name.

“When I took office I promised to have an administration that looked like America… not just for the community, but my Press Secretary ‘KAREEM,’” Biden said to applause.

WATCH:

Biden also botched “America” during his unhinged speech.

“We just have to get up. As long as we keep the faith…and remember who in the hell we are! We’re the United States of Ameragotit!” Biden shouted.

Punished For Speaking Truth | CultureWatch

Trans tyranny is on a search and destroy mission:

The trans mafia has declared war on an anyone and everyone who dares to challenge their pathologies and their radical social engineering. And sadly they have been backed by most Western governments, most of the media, most judiciaries, most elites, and most schools.

As such, anyone saying ‘no’ to the trans agenda risks being punished in all sorts of ways, whether loss of job, fines, being kicked out of university, and even being arrested and jailed. This is the daily lot for normal people who are sick and tired of this sexual sabotage of our society, and especially our women and children.

Some years ago I tried to keep tabs on the many cases of this punishment, but I had to quickly abandon the project. Every single day we hear of more such episodes, and it gets worse each passing hour. But with so many of our own Australian heroes being punished, I need to share five more such stories. They are all quite recent, happening here and overseas.

Kirralee Smith, Australia

The head of Binary and champion campaigner for sexual sanity has just posted this on the social media about her ongoing legal battles:

My penalty for being guilty of “unlawful vilification” has been handed down. In summary $95,000 in fines which will double if I don’t pay in 28 days. The orders also state I need to issue a public apology. I will be appealing the decision. Your support, your voice and your action is invaluable to me. Thank you!

 

It is disappointing that the word ‘woman’ has been redefined to include males and that the words ‘violence’ & ‘vilification’ have been applied to speaking the truth about information in the public domain. Australians should be very concerned about their freedoms.

 

Women have effectively been erased from law and attempts to advocate regarding public policy are shut down for the sake of the feelings of a few. Males should never be permitted to participate in female sport. As a registered third-party political campaigner and a woman, I should have the right to advocate for this without being penalized.

 

This decision, along with the High Court Appeal for the apprehension of violence order being denied, sets a precedent that all journalists, politicians and political advocates must take note of. The law might state men can be women, but it defies the laws of nature and cannot be sustained. Nothing will steal my joy in knowing that I am a woman and no male ever will be. I am proud to stand for truth and reality.

Australian worker

He was fired after calling non-binary colleague ‘he’ instead of ‘they’:

A Perth man has reportedly been fired from his workplace after misgendering a non-binary colleague. The 63-year-old man called a non-binary colleague ‘he’ instead of ‘they’ in a room of people during a leadership course in February. Another staff member corrected him as the man apologised to the worker, who previously made clear they wanted to be referred to as ‘they’.

 

The worker had their pronoun name badge on to ensure fellow colleagues knew of this preference. The 63-year-old was later informed by his manager a formal complaint had been lodged, and a written apology was required. The man refused to make a written apology and claimed nobody could be compelled to call a colleague ‘they’.

 

The worker then brought the case to the Fair Work Commission claiming wrongful dismissal. He told the FWC if one person had the arbitrary right to use a particular pronoun, then another person had the right not to use it. His employer launched an investigation in March and was later dismissed. https://www.skynews.com.au/lifestyle/trending/aussie-worker-fired-after-calling-nonbinary-colleague-he-instead-of-they/news-story/54252eba875bfe3c62e10fa88e18ed0c

Jocelyn Boden, Utah

This woman was also fired for the “crime” of misgendering:

A woman is taking action against her former employer over the claim that she was fired for misgendering a fellow employee. Jocelyn Boden, a former store manager for a Bath & Body Works location in Utah, was reportedly fired for “refusing to adhere to the company’s pronoun policy because of her religious beliefs,” according to conservative legal firm First Liberty Institute.

 

Attorneys for Boden filed a charge of discrimination with the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), with Stephanie Taub, senior counsel for First Liberty, pledging to push back against what she sees as an illegal move by the company.

 

“She was a store manager for over three years,” Taub told CBN News of Boden. “And when a transgender employee started working at her store … Jocelyn treated her well, treated her like everyone else, was willing to use names or nicknames. But the only problem is: she could not use pronouns in a way that was inconsistent with her religious and moral beliefs.” She continued, “And, because of that, there was an HR complaint that was filed and she was immediately investigated and fired.” https://cbn.com/news/us/fired-misgendering-woman-fights-back-after-termination

Isabella Cêpa, Brazil 

This feminist and human rights activist was threatened with a 25-year prison stay in Brazil for refusing to call a male politician ‘female’:

In a precedent-setting move, a European country has officially granted full refugee protections to a Brazilian women’s rights activist who was facing 25 years in prison in her home country for misgendering a transgender politician. Isabella Cêpa is the first person to be recognized as a victim of state persecution for her outspoken opposition to gender identity ideology.

 

As previously reported by Reduxx, Cêpa first came under criminal investigation after she made a social media post about Erika Hilton – a male politician who “identifies” as a woman. Hilton was elected to São Paulo’s municipal government in November of 2020, winning his seat by a landslide that gave him the title of the most voted-for ‘woman’ in Brazil.

 

At the time of his victory, Hilton was celebrated in international media as being a “symbolic triumph” for transgender people. Hilton was amongst the top 10 most-voted for candidates in all of Brazil, and was touted as the “only woman” to make the list.

 

It was the widespread announcement of his victory that first put him on Cêpa’s radar. “At the time I didn’t even know who this person was. I just saw a headline on an Instagram page celebrating that ‘the most voted woman in São Paulo is a transwoman,’” Cêpa told Reduxx during a 2022 interview, recounting how her ordeal began. “Then, I shared a video with my followers saying I was disappointed to hear that the most voted-for woman in São Paulo – later found out that it was in the entire country – was a man.” https://womenspeaktas.au/2025/08/06/exclusive-brazilian-woman-granted-refugee-status-in-europe-after-facing-25-year-sentence-for-misgendering-trans-politician/

Enoch Burke, Ireland

This Christian teacher is being punished in prison – perhaps permanently – for taking a stand in this area:

A teacher who refused to ‘call a boy a girl’ will remain in prison over Christmas after he was jailed last month for contempt of court, a judge has ordered. Enoch Burke has been detained in Mountjoy Prison since late November for breaches of a court order directing him not to trespass at Wilson’s Hospital School in Co Westmeath, where he worked as a teacher. He has been engaged in a legal dispute with the board of the school stemming from a request in 2022 from the then-principal that a student be addressed by a new name and pronoun. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-15349945/Irish-teacher-boy-girl-trans-row-jail-Christmas.html

Sacrificial Lambs: A Liberal Reporter Exposes How the Progressive Left Harms Children in the Name of Gender Ideology by Bartholomew, Anita (Author)

I could keep writing up such stories – seemingly from here to eternity. There is no let up to this madness. And as I said above, we are against a whole array of powerful forces who are intent on pushing this madness, and making sure any naysayers WILL be dealt with.

I have previously mentioned a vitally important new book on the trans madness by Anita Bartholomew. This leftist journalist just released Sacrificial Lambs: A Liberal Reporter Exposes How the Progressive Left Harms Children in the Name of Gender Ideology (Pitchstone Publishing, 2025). See my earlier piece on her here: https://billmuehlenberg.com/2025/11/07/stop-living-by-trans-lies/

I will finish my piece by offering a few quotes from her closing chapters. She said this:

Gender ideology is bolstered and held together by a web of unlikely allies: the wealthy transvestic fetishists and autogynephiles; the indoctrinated educators; the established nonprofits seeking new sources of revenue; the moms and dads who’ve “affirmed” their children and desperately need for it to have been the right call; the medical and mental health professionals profiting from trans-related services; the kids who’ve been purposely confused by their elders; the gays and lesbians who see the T as part of their tribe; the college-educated social justice warriors; all the other “sexual minorities,” including the most perverted, demanding understanding and acceptance; the legacy media that report trans insanity as if it were Truth itself; and the army of virtue signalers whose interest is almost entirely based on a narcissistic desire for high fives and attaboys.

Only such a grotesquely idiosyncratic coalition could keep the madness going for as long as it has, cross thousands of miles and more than a dozen countries. (p. 215)

And her closing paragraphs:

Aside from the immediate need to protect children and young adults, we also have to consider what kind of society we want to live in going forward. And, again, the risk goes beyond transgenderism to all the ways that queer theorists want to “queer” anything that could get in the way of normalizing all manner of sexual behaviour.

 

Even some psychology professionals who are skeptical of gender claims have been urging the destigmatization of so-called virtuous paedophiles (those who, presumably, don’t act on their attractions).

 

This is the next battlefront. Pedophiles (or “minor-attracted persons,” as some call themselves), have been trying to attach themselves to the alphabet soup of LGBTQIAA++ for years. If society doesn’t defend its norms and values as essential to a healthy culture, eventually, they will succeed.

 

Look what happened when we destigmatized transvestic fetishism/autogynephilia. That, on the surface, seemed relatively victimless, but the fetishists now demand to be treated in every respect as women.

 

We’re a tolerant society. But with unlimited tolerance, nothing on queer theory’s wish list can be kept in check.

 

Don’t be cowed by labels or smears. Forge new alliances to counter the ones that’s foisted this madness upon us.

 

Unqueer the queering. Disrupt the disruption. And let’s get back to reality. (pp. 228-229)

Amen to that sister.

The trans cult and social pressure:

That there has been a massive uptake in those – especially young people – thinking they are the wrong sex and are in need of transitioning is clear for the whole world to see. The stats are readily available telling us of this rapid and remarkable rise in those seeking to transition. The numbers are quite shocking.

But one bit of anecdotal evidence can also be appealed to here. I have over 300 articles on the trans cult now on my website, but the earliest pieces did not appear until around 14 years ago. Before this time, the topic was simply not really an issue – not just for me but pretty much the whole world.

So why did the trans phenomena all of a sudden spring up in the West? If this is some genuine medical issue that has always been with us and must be acted upon, then why was no one even talking about it until just a few short decades ago?

And the opposite side of this is true as well. If all this is fixed and absolute, then why has the big surge in trans cases now suddenly been followed by a steep decline? As I wrote in a recent piece, figures from the US make this clear:

A report from the Centre for Heterodox Social Science in the US has found that there are far fewer young people now identifying as trans or homosexual over the past few years. As one media discussion states:

“The Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression (FIRE), which conducts a large annual survey of US undergraduates, polled over 60,000 students in 2025. My analysis of the raw data shows that in that year, just 3.6% of respondents identified as a gender other than male or female. By comparison, the figure was 5.2% in 2024 and 6.8% in both 2022 and 2023. In other words, the share of trans-identified students has effectively halved in just two years.” https://billmuehlenberg.com/2025/10/24/on-the-trans-frontlines/  

Indeed, as can be rightly asked: If genitals don’t define gender, how does removing them affirm it? Either this is some innate condition, or it is not. If people are born homosexual, as the activists claim, and cannot change, then how can people change from one sex to the other? The trans agenda is all bogus. It is all radical ideology, not biological reality.

Social conditioning

And that explains this rapid rise and then decline in those seeking to “change” their sex. Many of us have argued that there is much blame to be laid at the feet of the media, of leftist politicians, of radical activist groups, and even popular culture. That is, so much of this is due to social contagion, peer pressure and the like.

It is just another trendy social pattern we are seeing. Nobody was complaining about being born into the wrong body until the past five minutes of human history. Now all of a sudden kazillions of folks want to hop on the trans bandwagon.

It has become a hip thing to do, and there is plenty of social pressure to join in on these things. But this is not just mere speculation on my part. There is a growing body of solid evidence to suggest that this is exactly the case. Let me point you to one key article on this.

Just a few days ago an important piece appeared in the Wall Street Journal by Colin Wright, an evolutionary biologist and a fellow at the Manhattan Institute. The title and subtitle say it all:

“Evidence Backs the Transgender Social-Contagion Hypothesis
The share of young people claiming another ‘gender identity’ exploded. Now surveys show it is receding.”

The piece is worth quoting from. He begins this way:

I was an academic scientist at Penn State in February 2020, when I became the target of an online mob for tweeting about transgender identity. I shared a link to an article from the Guardian with the accompanying quote: “Sweden’s Board of Health and Welfare confirmed a 1,500% rise between 2008 and 2018 in gender dysphoria diagnoses among 13- to 17-year-olds born as girls.” My commentary was brief: “Two words: social contagion.”

Within hours, colleagues denounced me as a “transphobic” bigot. Anonymous activists emailed universities to poison my job prospects. A professional job board even published mock job listings warning others not to hire me. My academic career never recovered.

But I wasn’t making an offhand remark or comparing a group of people to a disease vector, as some accused me of doing. I was referring to research published by Lisa Littman, a physician and researcher formerly with Brown university, who had coined the term “rapid-onset gender dysphoria” in a 2018 peer-reviewed paper to describe a newly emerging cohort of adolescents—overwhelmingly girls with no childhood history of gender dysphoria or even sex nonconformity—who suddenly began describing themselves as transgender, often after friends in their peer groups did the same. Dr. Littman proposed that this pattern was best explained by social contagion, meaning the spread of ideas or behaviors through peer influence. The term isn’t an insult; it’s a well-established sociological concept used to describe how trends such as eating disorders and even suicide clusters can spread.

Suggesting that social factors might cause or contribute to transgender identification violated fashionable left-wing dogma: that “gender identity” is an innate and immutable trait, and that some people are born with one that conflicts with their sex. This claim underpins both medical practice and legal strategy—from puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones and surgeries for minors to arguments that “gender identity” deserves civil-rights protections akin to race or sex. Progressives treat those who question these ideas as heretics and bigots.

He looks at how the activists seek to respond to this, and then offers more of the research. He then concludes his piece with these words:

The purported evidence for innate, immutable transgender identity is deeply flawed, however, as is clear upon closer examination. Studies of neuroanatomy, heritability and prenatal hormone exposure that claim a biological basis for gender identity are replete with small and selective samples, poor replication and uncontrolled confounding factors such as sexual orientation and cross-sex hormone treatment. Properly interpreted, they describe correlates of sex nonconformity and same-sex attraction, not proof of an innate transgender identity.

The notion that transgender identity is biologically hard-wired can’t explain why there has been a more than 20-fold surge in those identifying as transgender in the U.S. since 2010. The social-contagion hypothesis was never hateful. It was purely descriptive: a recognition that social and cultural factors shape human behavior. For years, even hinting that such factors influenced transgender identities could end a career. Now, as data accumulate, this is becoming harder for anyone to deny.

The surge in transgender identification in recent years wasn’t the revelation of a hidden biological truth. It was a social phenomenon shaped by imitation, ideology and institutional reinforcement. https://www.wsj.com/opinion/evidence-backs-the-transgender-social-contagion-hypothesis-40937876?st=pXpdaU&reflink=desktopwebshare_permalink

This is not the end of the debate of course. The activists will not give up, and they will simply dismiss any research to the contrary as another example of transphobia. As Wright puts it:

That doesn’t mean the transgender phenomenon will necessarily collapse. It’s possible that these identities will persist, not because they reflect a long-suppressed biological condition, but because activist, scientific and medical institutions have redefined transgender to encompass virtually any degree of nonconformity to traditional sex stereotypes. A masculine girl or feminine boy may now be labeled as “trans.”

It is good to see some fightback against the trans mafia. For the sake of our women and children, we need much more of it.

Monday Miscellany, 10/20/25 | Cranach by Gene Veith

Trump doubts his salvation. Christianophobia. Percentage of young adults identifying as “Non-Binary” plummets.

Trump Doubts His Salvation

“I don’t think there’s anything going to get me in heaven,” Trump told reporters en route to Israel on Air Force One, after being asked if the peace deal he helped broker between Israel and Hamas has boosted his chances. “I think I’m not, maybe, heaven-bound.”

He’s right, of course.  We can’t get to Heaven by our good works, simply because we never have enough of them to deserve eternal life.  And we are weighted down by our bad works, which because of our fallen condition will always outnumber the good works.  We need atonement.  But God has provided that, freely, in His incarnation, death, and resurrection of Christ.  By faith in Christ and what He has done for us, we can be justified.

It’s healthy that President Trump is realizing that even bringing about world peace, if he could do that, will not get him to Heaven.  He needs the next step.  He needs to repent of his sins–which he has famously refused to do, insisting that he doesn’t need forgiveness–and turn to Christ, who will take his sins into Himself, impute to him His righteousness, and bring him to Heaven.

I take President Trump’s spiritual musings seriously.  I find the doubt and the fears of this powerful, egotistical man extremely poignant.  I refuse to mock him for this, dismiss it as a joke, or heap up all of his offenses to prove that he is indeed Hell-bound as many of his critics will do.  Nor will I excuse him and insist that he will go to Heaven after all because he is such a good person, as many of his more fervent supporters are likely to do.

Let’s do this:  Let’s pray for this man.  Whether you are a supporter or a critic, pray that President Trump will come to the salvation that is in Christ.  If you are a supporter, you want the best for him.  If you are a critic, this is your chance to pray for your enemy, as Jesus instructs us to do.  Not just pray for him as the president, though do that too (1 Timothy 2:2), but as a human being. Pray for the salvation of Donald Trump.

Christianophobia

You’ve heard of Islamophobia, homophobia, transphobia. . . .To those words we can now add Christianophobia.

So reports the Catholic News Agency:  “The term ‘Christianophobia’ has returned to the forefront of public debate in Europe, fueled by a growing number of incidents targeting churches, religious symbols, and believers.”

The term Christianophobia isn’t new, but it gives a name to realities documented by statistics.

According to the Observatory on Intolerance and Discrimination Against Christians in Europe, the attacks ranged from the desecration of churches and Christian symbols (62% of cases), to arson (10%), threats (8%), and direct acts of violence (7%).

In a written response to a European Commission inquiry, it was revealed that in 2023 alone there were 2,444 incidents of violence against Christians across 35 European countries, including 1,000 cases in France.

So now they are giving a name for it.

Actually, as the article says, the term Christianophobia was used in a United Nations religious freedom resolution in 2017, which deplores “discrimination, intolerance and violence. . .motivated by  Islamophobia, anti-Semitism and Christianophobia.”

The -phobia suffix in this context does not mean “irrational fear of,” as in psychiatric conditions, such as acrophobia (fear of heights), claustrophobia (fear of confined spaces), agoraphobia (fear of public places), dentophobia (fear of dentists), and coulrophobia (fear of clowns).

Rather, using the suffix with Islam, homosexuality, transgenderism, and now Christianity means “hostility against,” or even “opposition to,” while keeping the psychiatric connotations that implies such opposition is due to a mental illness.

So now Christians can wrap themselves in the mantle of victimhood.  When secularists criticize us, we can accuse them of Christianophobia, whereupon, if they are woke enough, they are likely to back down.

Percentage of Young Adults Identifying as “Non-Binary” Plummets

Half as many college students identify as “non-binary”–that is, neither male nor female–as there were two years ago.

That’s the finding of a study  discussed by social scientist Eric Kaufmann in his article for Unherd entitled Why are fewer young people identifying as trans?

The Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression (FIRE), which conducts a large annual survey of US undergraduates, polled over 60,000 students in 2025. My analysis of the raw data shows that in that year, just 3.6% of respondents identified as a gender other than male or female. By comparison, the figure was 5.2% in 2024 and 6.8% in both 2022 and 2023. In other words, the share of trans-identified students has effectively halved in just two years.

This trend is especially marked in elite institutions. Andover Phillips Academy in suburban Boston surveys over three-quarters of its students annually. In 2023, 9.2% identified as neither male nor female. This year, that number has crashed to just 3%. A similar story emerges at Brown University: 5% of students identified as non-binary in 2022 and 2023, but by 2025 that share had dropped to 2.6%.

More surveys ask about sexual orientation than gender identity. And while there is a broader spread of data points, the basic pattern looks similar: rising non-conformity from 2010 until 2023, with a near 10-point return to the norm in the ensuing two years in most datasets.

Kaufmann seems to be conflating “trans” with “non-binary.”  Someone who is “transgender” does identify as either male or female, despite what biology would indicate.  A look at the actual study shows that the dramatic decline is in the percentage of young adults who had considered themselves neither male nor female; that is, to use the parlance, “queer.”

The findings are indeed significant, though.  Bi-sexuality, as well as the panoply of gender identities such as “pansexual,” “asexual,” and the other categories signified by the “+” in LGBTQ+, is way down.  Regular homosexuality is pretty stable.  Basically, LG is the same, but BTQ+ is dropping.

How can that be?  These gender and sexual categories were said to be innate characteristics that could not be changed.  Why are non-binary sexual identities dropping, while the binary of male and female is reasserting itself?

The study tries to account for its findings, but propose answers–mental health improvements, the vibe shift against wokism, rise in religion–don’t seem to correlate.

Kaufmann concludes, “For young people, gender and sexual identity are now independent fashions that rise and fall separately from other cultural and political currents.”  Fashions?  Gender and sexual identity are fashions?

The study is even more emphatic:  “It appears that trans and queer are going out of fashion among young people.”

LGBT History Month: From Marginalization to Domination | IFA

How many months out of the year need to be focused on you before you’re no longer “marginalized”? October has been dubbed (by some, including Democratic Presidents Obama and Biden) “LGBT History Month.” This is the third full month devoted to all things LGBTQIA+++++. June, of course, is “Pride Month”, and March is “Bisexual Health Awareness Month.”

Connect with others in your state in prayer.

 

One single official “Gay Pride Day” on June 22, 1975, in Washington D.C. has metastasized into a colossal calendar whose growth knows no bounds. It’s activism also has no use for the truth.

So called marginalization has turned into domination.

The LGBT etc. movement is funded to the tune of nearly $1 billion a year. This is exponentially amplified by the fierce allyship and biased advocacy of news media, corporate America, professional sports and the entertainment industry. The entire Democratic Party leadership bows to it as well as a handful of Republicans. Churches with little to no Bible-orientation have also joined the cult-like bandwagon.

Need attention?

But somehow, 92 days (March, June, October) aren’t enough devotion to LGBT ideology. (Watch my video about this here.) There are another 45 days of individually recognized observances! This makes a grand total of 137 days out of the year dedicated to homosexuality, bisexuality, asexuality, transgenderism, and constantly emerging new “sexualities.” No other people group, including minorities, receives the same attention. Black Americans have a little over 60 days. Jewish Americans have one officially recognized month. Irish Americans have a month, too.

I’m waiting for National Furries Day to be added to the LGBT calendar. Last year, woke toymaker, Lego, included drag queens and furries in their “Pride Month” celebration. They made the connection. When will species-orientation be built into the ever-expanding acronym of inclusivity? In an article entitled “What is Furry Sex” on the medically dubious WebMD site: “Just over 20% of furries say they are exclusively heterosexual and about 10% identify as exclusively homosexual. The rest fall somewhere in between or elsewhere on the sexual spectrum.”

Anything goes?

But there are plenty of days devoted to an ever-widening spectrum. Here is just a short list of some of the observances:

  • Aromantic Spectrum Awareness Week (Feb 21).
  • International Transgender Day of Visibility (March 31).
  • International Asexuality Day (April 6).
  • Nonbinary Parents Day (April 18).
  • International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia, and Biphobia (May 17).
  • Pansexual and Panromantic Awareness and Visibility Day (May 24).
  • Queer Youth of Faith Day (June 30).

One of the days that strikes me as a bit funny is Gay Uncles Day. There’s no Lesbian Aunts Day! Somehow, within 137 days of a 365-day calendar, there’s not enough room to be inclusive of lesbian aunts? Oh, and there’s International Pronouns Day, you know, because the movement has literally weaponized these parts of speech, when used accurately, to be “hate speech”.

Here’s the thing. LGBT requires that you accept all the acronym’s worldview, or you’re branded as whatever-phobic. Thankfully, people are seeing past the mirage of glitter and co-opted rainbows. The targeting of our children in our nation’s public schools has awakened many parents and students alike. People are tired of every facet of life being sexualized and confused men who co-opt womanhood being glorified. Despite the failure of Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson to simply define what a woman is, sex is binary. It’s the refusal of this simple and liberating truth that has led to a lengthy string of calendar days of biological denialism.

What is love?

We should always treat fellow humans with compassion. There is an ugly past of homosexuals being horrifically and violented mistreated. That’s reprehensible and unacceptable. But LGBT activists, often acting out in horrifically violent ways today (herehere, and here), are proving what happens when power shifts.

I’ll always love every human being, but not every human doing.

Refusing to distinguish between the two fails individuals who are hurting and in need of truth. People struggling with reality don’t need hucksters with rainbow-branded paraphernalia pretending that confusion and pain have no origin or moral remedy.

It’s why criminalizing counseling that only affirms all things LGBT is not only a violation of the First Amendment but a violation of human decency. People’s whose emotions are at odds with their DNA need less activism and more factivism. I hope the Supreme Court rules in favor of free speech and common sense in the Colorado case, Chiles vs. Salazer, where counselors’ speech is being dictated by the government.

We’re told by the vast majority of mainstream media that “conversion therapy” (aka a counselor speaking freely about the struggles of the client) is “harmful to minors.” These are the same folks who celebrate dangerous carcinogenic puberty blockers and body-mutilating surgeries that result in radical body alterations and amputations. It’s why the American College of Pediatricians warns against these radical interventions and ideologies being foisted upon children.

Christians, especially, should reject the rhetoric of confusion. We serve a God who offers the ultimate conversion therapy to each and every one of us — His Son, Jesus. He promises us in 2 Corinthians 5:17 that His love transitions us from old to new creations. That’s the only “trans” that we should celebrate.

These 137 days don’t happen in a vacuum. They are legislated, made into policy in the workplace, sold in the marketplace, brandished in courts and forced into classroom curriculum without parental say. It’s time to start cleaning up our national calendar and doing what enables individuals to be whole. That’s when society flourishes. And that all starts with objective truth.

‘Revoice’ Holds Conference at Gay Affirming PCUSA Church? | Protestia

Revoice recently concluded their 2025 Build Conference, and we couldn’t help but notice they held it at University Presbyterian Church (UPC) in Seattle, WA, which highlights the schizophrenic theological nature of this congregation and consortium.

UPC is led by both men and women, with both genders serving as elders, and is affiliated with the progressive PCUSA denomination—one of the most radical in the country. Whereas the church once had thousands in attendance, they’ve shrunk over the years, dipping from 5000 members to barely more than 600 showing up on a Sunday morning.

As far as their adherence to biblical sexuality, they are one of the few PCUSA churches who, at least on the surface, “teach that God gives marriage as a covenant between a woman and a man, and that marriage is the only appropriate context for sexual intimacy.”

This may seem like blessed relief, but it’s actually a curse, as they have a reputation for not speaking on hot-button issues like abortion and issues pertaining to marriage and sexuality, including LGBTQ issues.

Why? Because in the same breath as affirming a biblical worldview, their statement paper notes, “We hold this position firmly but respect our members and neighbors who disagree.” As a result, they “recognize that many of our members and neighbors identify as LGBTQ+, experience same-sex attraction, or are in same-sex marriages” and “recognize that we have differing understandings of the Bible among us.”

Because there are differing views, they “encourage everyone to grapple with the biblical texts for themselves, and work to appreciate one another’s views. We do not tolerate hostility towards LGBTQ+ people or their expressed understandings.”

Put another way, they welcome gay couples to attend and be members and participate fully in the life of the church, without fear of recrimination of judgement, while holding on paper the opposite view, which is then never preached about.

Come to think of it, given the gross confusion this represents and engenders, they are a perfect choice to host Revoice.

The Disney Suicide Through Woke Agenda | The Gateway Pundit

Image generated by ChatGPT (2025) using AI. Public domain – no copyright claimed.

There has been growing speculation that Disney may finally abandon its woke agenda in an attempt to save the company. This author will have to see it to believe it. Over the past few years, Disney has seemed determined to destroy one of the most famous and enduring brands in the world.

Leaked internal documents and videos from 2022 revealed what executives themselves described as a “not-at-all-secret gay agenda.” Disney Television Animation producer Latoya Raveneau admitted to “adding queerness” to children’s programming, while production coordinator Allen March openly discussed imposing quotas to ensure shows included “queer stories,” “gender non-conforming characters,” and characters who were “trans,” “asexual,” and “bisexual.”

Disney’s Diversity and Inclusion Manager, Vivian Ware, also announced that the company would drop traditional terms like “ladies and gentlemen” or “boys and girls” in its theme parks to avoid alienating transgender children.

At the same time, the company faced backlash over several high-profile productions. Films such as Snow White (2025), Agatha All Along (2024), and The Acolyte sparked controversy for their progressive themes, while Strange World and Lightyear (2022) became lightning rods for criticism of Disney’s insistence on embedding LGBTQ+ storylines into mainstream content.

The financial fallout was staggering. Lightyear cost $200 million to make and ultimately lost Disney $106 million after earning just $267 million at the global box office against total expenses of $373 million. It was the lowest-grossing domestic opening for a Pixar film since Cars 2 (2011). Strange World fared no better.

With production costs exceeding $317 million, it grossed only $165 million, losing the studio more than $152 million. Together, the two films alone cost Disney nearly $300 million.

Disney’s involvement with LGBTQ+ themes is not new. In the early 1990s, Walt Disney World began hosting an annual Gay Day on the first Saturday in June. The event drew heavy criticism, with the Southern Baptist Convention boycotting Disney for nearly a decade and evangelist Pat Robertson even warning that a meteor would strike Orlando.

What is different now is the escalation into children’s programming and the internal admissions of deliberate “gay agenda” quotas. For conservatives, this shift crossed a line. They no longer see Disney as merely supporting adult LGBTQ+ rights but as actively trying to shape children’s sexual and gender identity development. This perception explains why today’s backlash is both stronger and more financially costly than in the past.

The controversy is compounded by changes in gender representation across Disney animation. Of the last seven Walt Disney Animation Studios features, only two, Strange World and Ralph Breaks the Internet, featured male characters as the focal point. Before the release of Elemental (2023), no female protagonist in a Disney children’s film had been written with a love story since Frozen in 2013.

That nearly decade-long gap reflected what some critics dubbed “the Frozen Effect”: the film not only delivered a cultural phenomenon but also marked Disney’s pivot away from male-centered tales toward strongly female-driven narratives. Subsequent female-led films included Moana (2016), Encanto (2021), and Turning Red (2022).

For critics, this emphasis on representation may be empowering in one sense but limiting in another, as male characters have been sidelined or increasingly portrayed in more feminine roles. Combined with LGBTQ+ themes, this broader cultural and creative shift has fed into the perception that Disney is prioritizing ideology over storytelling.

Fox News host Tucker Carlson accused Disney of pushing a sexual agenda on children. “They have a sexual agenda for six-year-old children,” he said. “You’d think that’s illegal in some way. It’s certainly immoral.” Later in the same program, Carlson criticized Disney executives for normalizing LGBTQ lifestyles through films and projects. “Sounds like the behavior of a sex offender,” he added. “Normal people do not sexualize underage children.”

Politicians also weighed in. Rep. Jim Jordan, an Ohio Republican, tweeted, “Buzz Lightyear went woke. The movie went broke.”

But perhaps Disney’s bigger problem is trust. After two heavily agenda-driven films in a row, Strange World and Lightyear, many parents no longer believe Disney is committed to providing wholesome family entertainment. Families with young children felt the company was trying to “pull one over on them,” not once but twice. Once that trust is lost, it is extremely difficult to win back.

Polling data underscores this backlash. A Rasmussen Reports survey found that more than 70% of American adults said Disney should “return to wholesome programming and allow parents to decide when their children are taught about sexuality.” Fifty-four percent agreed that LGBT-themed programming is “inappropriate” for children.

A global survey by Redfield & Wilton Strategies found even stronger resistance to transgender representation in Disney films: 11% disapproved and 25% strongly disapproved, compared with 14% who approved and 20% who strongly approved.

A possible turning point came in August 2025 when Disney quietly settled its lawsuit with Gina Carano, who had been fired from The Mandalorian in 2021 over her conservative social media posts. In a surprise to fans, Lucasfilm even stated it looked forward to “identifying opportunities to work together” with her in the future, an indication that the company may be reconsidering its direction.

Around the same time, The Hollywood Reporter revealed that Disney executives had ordered dialogue about transgenderism and gender identity to be cut from the upcoming Pixar series Win or Lose. Whether these moves signal a genuine change or merely a tactical retreat remains unclear. What is clear is that Disney’s experiment with politicized storytelling has left behind cultural division, alienated audiences, and hundreds of millions in financial losses.

On some level, this author hopes Disney will crash and burn and take their woke nonsense to the grave with them. On the other hand, as a kid who grew up in the ’70s, I think it would also be nice if they produced a Star Wars movie worth watching again.

Bring Back Asylums: It’s Time To Talk About Transgender Fatigue In America | ZeroHedge

Authored by Brandon Smith via Alt-Market.us,

Transgenderism is not a civil rights movement; it’s a social engineering experiment. The LGBT movement is not a struggle for equal rights; it’s a covert war for political control. The agenda of the people involved in the spheres of trans-activism are radical zealots hellbent on the destruction of their enemies by any means necessary – And if you believe in logic, objective reality, biological science and moral imperative, then you are one of their enemies.

A prime strategy of the trans movement is the indoctrination of our children. They rarely have any children of their own and in order to perpetuate their numbers they must groom future generations to their cause. And, it has become clear that if they can’t indoctrinate our kids, they are perfectly willing to murder our kids.

There are a lot of “watchers on the wall” in the alternative media that have been fighting for decades against the adoption of woke (or politically correct) narratives in America and I think many of us have grown tired of playing games of logic and reason. Many conservatives and libertarians today put endless stock into the power of debate, but after fighting this fight for so long you start to realize that debate rarely changes the minds of zealots.

We can present an airtight case for our ideals to the public and hope for the best, and I think we have been successful in many regards. However, I would suggest that we are not changing people’s views so much as we are informing people who simply weren’t paying attention until now.

We are adding more and more of the fence-sitters to our side, but we are doing very little to solve the root problem. Some conflicts cannot be dealt with using reason. In the end, there is something to be said for brutality over debate.

For the past couple years I have been predicting that the political left was going to take a nose dive (globally) in terms of government influence, but I also predicted that they would grow increasingly unstable and revert to targeted violence over their loss of power. In my article from January titled “The Monkey Wrench Sabotage Of America Begs For An Authoritarian Response”, I noted:

Leftists throughout modern history have a habit of engaging in destabilization efforts when they don’t get what they want. They view their motivations as sacrosanct and beyond criticism, be it “saving democracy” or “saving the planet” or “taking down capitalists and colonists”.

In every case where the political left had influence over social conditions and then lost that power, they revert to directed exponential disruption and violence from riots to assassination. They claim to care about the right of the majority to have their voices heard, but in reality they don’t care at all. When the majority goes against the leftist narrative, leftists go rogue…”

Damn, I hate being right about this stuff but the evidence speaks for itself.  The thing about the political left is that they are cowards at their core.  Their relationship with warfare is more subversive, avoiding a stand-up confrontation whenever possible and only targeting people who can’t defend themselves.

The latest attack involves a leftist transgender activist named “Robin Westman” (originally Robert Westman, a man pretending to be a woman) murdering two children and injuring 17 others at a Catholic school and church in Minneapolis, then killing himself.

The resulting anger against the greater trans movement makes perfect sense: Americans have transgender fatigue. We are fed up with these unhinged lunatics. We are done with them, and they’re not going to like what comes next.

First, I want to break down what pisses me off about this shooting, beyond the targeting of innocent children. Specifically, I want to address the responses by the corporate media, Democrats and the media in general.

Is It “Unfair” To Blame An Ideology?

Democrat leaders say that Westman’s actions are separate from his beliefs and that conservatives are “trying to make the shooting political”. Bullshit. Transgender activism is the core influence in these shootings.

Westman’s writings reveal his violent fantasies about killing children, including wanting to be the “scary horrible monster standing over those powerless kids.” Westman’s videos, posted hours before the shootings, also show the phrases “kill Donald Trump” and “for the children” scrawled on gun magazines. On one AR magazine he writes “I am the Woker, baby. Why so Queerious?”

It is the trans ideology that equipped Robert Westman with the excuses to rationalize the killing of helpless kids. His writings display a clear hatred of Christians, conservatives and Donald Trump. These expressions are normal within the transgender community; they argue in favor of violence against conservatives on a regular basis.

Their assertion? That conservatives stopping children from being pumped full of puberty blockers or having their body parts mutilated is akin to extermination. Remember, these people see your children as targets for indoctrination and conversion – This is how they reproduce their kind. So, in their twisted minds, our efforts to stop trans grooming is the same as genocide.

There are many cases of politically motivated violence against innocent people in which the act cannot be separated from the ideology that inspired it. The word for this is “terrorism”. Robert Westman’s attack was trans terrorism, pure and simple, and there are many others out there like him.

Was Westman Actually “Right Wing”?

This has been the go-to media narrative after almost every leftist act of violence; they try to distance themselves while still defending the person’s motives. In the case of Westman, his writings are clear; he’s a leftist. The media has latched onto two peripheral arguments to say otherwise:

First, Westman hated Jews. The media claims this makes him a “Neo-Nazi” and that automatically makes him a right-winger. Let’s be clear, leftists today are so antisemitic it’s enough to make the average Neo-Nazi blush. They hate Jews and they hate Israel and they’ve been courting Muslim groups for an alliance for the better part of a decade. Are there some right wing people that agree with Westman? Sure. But agreeing on a single issue doesn’t make him conservative.

Second, reports suggest that conservative/libertarian guntuber Brandon Herrera was mentioned in the shooter’s writings. Westman supposedly claims that he “met Herrera at SHOT Show in Las Vegas” and that they agreed on a number of topics. Herrera says he has no recollection of meeting Westman or any conversation with the trans lunatic.

He notes that a person like Westman would stand out like a sore thumb at an event like SHOT Show, which is generally restricted to industry professionals and the firearms media. SHOT Show has also put out a statement indicating that there is no record of Westman ever attending their conference.

My theory? I think the Herrera mentions have been planted as a way to distract from Westman’s full bore leftist cultism, offering the woke movement deniability. In other words, it’s a fake out that doesn’t match with any other evidence presented on the man’s background.

Transgender Ideology Is A Convenient Facade For The Mentally Ill

I am so tired of the mainstream media continuing to perpetuate the fallacy that people can choose their gender. Even in the case of a mass killer, they insist on “respecting the person’s pronouns”. This behavior is enabling these mentally ill bottom feeders to act the way they do.

Westman in his manifesto confesses that his transition efforts were a mistake and that he wished he had never “brainwashed himself”. He noted that he “wished he was a girl” but had accepted that it was impossible. He kept his hair long as the “last shred” of the facade of being transgender because he was afraid to cut it and admit “embarrassing defeat”.

This revelation supports what I have been saying for years – The vast majority of trans people are frauds. They are putting on an activist costume because they are rebels desperate for any cause to latch onto. People with legitimate gender dysphoria are exceedingly rare, but mental illness in general is common in America today.

The trans ideology was weaponized by globalists and governments over the course of the last decade. There’s a good reason why the number of people that identify as trans skyrocketed since 2018 – The level of propaganda aimed at children has been intense and the incentives to gain social approval are overwhelming.

The philosophy appeals to people with preexisting emotional disturbances and it is especially attractive to narcissists who gravitate to the moral and scientific relativism inherent in gender fluid thinking. In other words, it’s easy to tell which people are going to be a potential problem in any given community, just look for the trans flags and clown makeup.

In the wake of the shooting Democrats are trying to turn the event into a gun issue. It’s not. Millions of Americans have guns and almost no one decides to go shoot up a school filled with little kids. No, this is about an ideological cult that glorifies mental illness. This is about transgenderism. Trans activists and the people who enable them are the problem.

I want to be clear that I’m not talking about all people who dress up as the opposite gender (or sex, whatever you prefer). There are conservative trans people out there that disagree with the LGBT movement on most things. I’m talking about the leftist political militants. They need to go. There is no room for them in the US any longer.

I think the solution is obvious: It’s time to bring back the asylums and lock up the crazies. It’s not a novel idea, it’s become a mantra for many people in 2025. I discussed the advantages of asylums in my article “How To Solve Violence In The US? Remove Democrat Run Cities And Bring Back Asylums”, published in 2023.

During the peak of America’s asylum era crime plunged to all time lows. If asylums are coupled with extended prison time for repeat offenders, crime nearly disappears. There were trespasses and abuses within some hospitals that should be addressed, but I would argue that overall the use of asylums was an undeniable net positive for society. After we shut them down, crime skyrocketed. We’ve been trying to cope ever since using state prison systems.

The time for discourse is over. The time for compromise and compassion is over. The time for brutal ignominy is at hand. At the very least these people need to be laughed at, mocked and shamed out of existence. Every aspect of trans activism needs to be shunned and erased from our society. Those who express clear threats of violence need to be locked up as they would have been 70 years ago.

Over time the cancer of wokeness is going to disappear, but this long term cultural shift does not resolve the immediate threat. Either we throw them up in padded rooms or we boot them from the country, but letting these zealots continue to wreak havoc, or possibly regain political power one day, is not an option.

Against the Transhumanist, Transex Behemoth | CultureWatch

On the transgender and transhumanist agenda:

Things like transgenderism and transhumanism are both on a roll, and they have often been discussed on my site. Of interest is how much the two are actually connected. They tend to play off each other, and we need to be aware of this. One new book powerfully makes this case.

American writer Jennifer Bilek has written a number of incisive and hard-hitting pieces on transhumanism, transgenderism and the war we are in with these forces of heavily financed darkness. In addition to being found on her own blog, The 11th Hour, many have appeared in such journals as First Things and Human Events.

Thankfully 27 of her articles have now been brought together in the new book, Transsexual, Transgender, Transhuman (Spinifex, 2024). These important essays demonstrate what a prophetic role Bilek has in sounding the alarm about the very real dangers we are now in. And given how much Big Money is behind all this, there is all the more reason to be aware of her warnings.

The more she dug into what was going on here, the more concerned she became. She lets us know what she has been learning in the Introduction:

In my research and writing I follow the money trail behind the gender industry, a domineering and monied business pursuit with a very powerful lobby which is advanced as a human rights campaign. The gender industry is the promotion of the adult male fetish of transsexualism, rebranded for today’s youth, grooming them for industrial body disassociation.

 

Behind the slogans about freedom of expression, and euphemisms such as ‘gender care’ and ‘gender dysphoria’ is a marketing apparatus so unrelenting and extreme, it has acted upon the populace like cult indoctrination. It has captured large swathes of the public imagination, corporations, educational and medical institutions, and governments across the Western world and beyond, by the idea that the human sex boundary between males and females is a social construct. (p 1)

She offers plenty of documentation on all this, and her chapter on Big Pharma is certainly revealing. A few more quotes:

When pharmacology and technology made it possible for the tiny number of men with this fetish to escalate their behaviors to appropriate surgically constructed facsimiles of female biology, or synthetic sex characteristics, transsexualism took root in the medical industry….

 

As the technology and pharmaceuticals to perform more realistic synthetic sex surgeries advance, society is forced to accept this paraphilia and accept the ideology that’s developed around it, which denies our biological reality, raising us above the natural world, where we are supposed to thrive in a living tapestry. (pp. 31-32)

Of interest, Bilek was once a person of the left, but the radical progressives of today are a far cry from the old left. So she found herself shifting to the right. She says this about the “new, new left in America” and where things now stand:

Emerging out of the carcass of that potentially revolutionary movement is a left that has recently climbed into bed with those same big banks. Snuggled up in bed with them, fluffing their pillows, are Big Pharma and Big Tech. The left is running around screaming at protests, getting wide media coverage, silencing voices in our universities and institutions, and shouting loudly that people claiming their sex is not male or female need human rights. These manufactured sexes are being supported by, promoted, and advertised by Big Pharma, Big Tech and Big Banking. This new, unrecognizable left sees no irony at all in their behavior.

 

These purported new sexes, ostensibly requiring special human rights, depend on a narrative that sexual dimorphism isn’t real, that it exists on a spectrum of sexes. This is the gender industry, and with projected profit margins reaching into the billions by 2026, for surgeries on healthy sex organs alone and the amount of advertising curated to sell it, it is going to be very profitable indeed. (pp. 43-44)

She also argues that the homosexual movement has been “hijacked by a radical transhumanist agenda.” Says Bilek:

Western societies are in the vortex of Transhumanism. We are being sucked in because this radical transhumanist agenda and its eugenicist underpinnings are being obscured by a popular LGB human rights veneer.

 

“Transgenderism” is a word acting as a social bridge between transsexualism and transhumanism. It is an umbrella term with weak borders that allows this bridging quality to transhumanism to nimbly evade scrutiny. Transsexualism is largely an adult male fetish that compulsively objectifies and covets womanhood. Men with autogynephila (the professional name for this form of transsexualism) seek to medically appropriate the sexed humanity of women by purchasing surgical simulacrums of their sexed reality, in parts, to assuage their compulsion. (pp. 49-50)

And again:

Transgenderism/transhumanism is being forced into every sector of society, government, and even into children’s schools where they are taught that they can be boys or girls as they choose; it is a bridge to get us to a place of social acquiescence to these changes. This grooming process would be impossible without the LGB civil rights political apparatus and the already culturally cultivated acceptance of homosexual people. (p. 53)

She closes that chapter with these words: “Without a banner of human rights, the transhumanist boat would sink like a stone. It uses vulnerable children as fodder for the coming revolution in assisted fertility to force our trajectory as a species away from the biosphere and further into technology—unless we stop them.” (p. 54)

In Ch. 9 she notes how the once small and struggling homosexual movement has morphed into an all-powerful and all-conquering giant, squashing all opposition along the way: “Today’s movement, however, looks nothing like that band of persecuted outcasts. The LGBT rights agenda—note the addition of ‘T’—has become a powerful, aggressive force in American society. Its advocates stand at the top of media, academia, the professions, and, most important, Big Business and Big Philanthropy.” (p. 79)

Transsexual Transgender Transhuman: Dispatches from The 11th Hour by Bilek, Jennifer (Author)

She documents how billionaires and Big Corporations are behind all this, and then says:

[T]he LGB civil rights movement of yore has morphed into a relentless behemoth, one that has strong ties to the medical industrial complex and global corporatists. The pharmaceutical lobby is the largest lobbying entity in Congress. Although activists present the LGBT movement as a weak, powerless group suffering oppression and discrimination, in truth it wields enormous power and influence—power it increasingly uses to remake our laws, schools, and society. (p. 83)

Another chapter deals with related themes:

Under Techno-Capitalism, hatred of women is promoted to commodify female bodies and profit from women’s pain.

 

Most people probably think more about the liberating elements of technology than how it drives our servitude. We may think about the drawbacks of individual technological developments, but overall, we’re not thinking a lot about the unfettered growth of technology, its speed, complexity and its vast spread. As technology is sewn to unfettered capitalism it must grow or die.  It must breach new boundaries or wither. Techno-Capitalism, or technology as it is wedded to capitalism functions of its own accord now, driven by profit. The oppression and hatred of females has become part of this system, which continually magnifies it. (pp. 97-98)

The radical sexual and technological war against children is especially a big concern for Bilek – as it should be for all of us. A chapter on this is also worth drawing to your attention. She writes:

The ‘transgender child’ is a corporate, legal, and technological construct. Its manifestation was necessary for substantiating the evolution of an adult male fetish into an industry of owning women’s reproductive capacities via medical technology. An adult male fetish of owning womanhood, and cutting it up for the market, is a very hard sell for the public.

 

Children distressed about feeling wrong in their sexed realities being promoted as having special human identities, needing protection and rights, and medical manipulation, hits the marketing sweet spot, because it cultivates our empathy. (p. 161)

Bilek minces no words on this matter:

Societies are not being rapidly overhauled for people’s identities, children’s body dysphoria, or some amorphous ‘gender identity’. They are being overhauled to change the way we think of ourselves as a species: a sexually dimorphic species. Children are being groomed to think of themselves as parts, not wholly sexed beings. If we wish to stop this assault on children, we must be clear on where it comes from, where it is going and why it is happening, or children will continue to be used as eugenic fodder for a future in which they will be reduced to commodities. (p. 165)

And her summarising words are worth offering here:

If I have learned anything in the past decade of researching the gender industry as a front for a transhumanist paradigm, I know that resisting it demands no compromise. We must tell the absolute truth about what it is and what it is doing.

 

The corporate agenda to deconstruct human sex is a Goliath of power playing on Our empathy, dividing us by positioning us against their construct of alternative humans who need special protections. The laws transhumanists are passing, and their attempts to rapidly overhaul our societies, institutions, and language, are all formulated to advance a transformation of humanity and the reality that we live in. They are not hiding this. It is up to each of us to open our eyes and understand this transformation. (p. 193)

These 27 chapters/essays make for frightening reading. But we must be aware of what is happening in our posthuman world. Thank you Jennifer Bilek for exposing this nefarious agenda at work.

American Eagle Apologizes, Replaces Sydney Sweeney With Fat Transgender Double-Amputee Of Color | Babylon Bee

Image for article: American Eagle Apologizes, Replaces Sydney Sweeney With Fat Transgender Double-Amputee Of Color

PITTSBURGH, PA — Social justice warriors scored another victory today, as retail chain American Eagle issued a public apology and replaced Sydney Sweeney in its ad campaign with a fat, transgender double amputee of color.

The new campaign featuring Sweeney had caused controversy after American Eagle was accused of choosing an attractive young Caucasian woman to sell their clothing, which is a well-known Nazi dog whistle.

The company aimed to quickly rectify this by replacing Sweeney with the most intersectionally diverse fashion model of all time.

“We’re really sorry for giving people someone pleasant to look at,” said American Eagle spokesperson Eliott Dorton. “We mistakenly believed that featuring a beautiful woman wearing our jeans would make people want to see our commercials and buy our products, but we instead unintentionally outed ourselves as horribly racist Nazis. We deeply apologize to anyone who was offended by someone visually appealing, and we have officially changed course today by replacing Ms. Sweeney with Chantrese Underwood, a body-positive disabled man who identifies as a woman. We trust that this correction will put us back in everyone’s good graces. Thank you.”

The brand’s new face was thrilled to get the call. “I’m grateful for the opportunity,” Underwood said. “As a fat, transgender double amputee of color, I haven’t seen much representation in fashion ads, so it’s nice to be a part of changing that. I look forward to rolling my chair down the runway and showing the world just how fat and transgender I can be.”

At publishing time, American Eagle had also issued a formal apology for its prominent depictions of the American flag, eagles, and the fact that the word “American” is in its name.


The Washington Commanders aren’t the only sports team in Trump’s crosshairs.

‘Big Win For Sanity’: Landmark SCOTUS Decision Deals ‘Major Blow’ in Trans Battle | Faithwire

The Supreme Court issued a landmark 6-3 ruling Wednesday that upheld Tennessee’s law banning attempts to transition minors’ genders.

The United States v. Skrmetti case deals a major blow to transgender activists who have argued in favor of permitting underage children to take medicalized steps to identify with their perceived gender identities.

“This case carries with it the weight of fierce scientific and policy debates about the safety, efficacy, and propriety of medical treatments in an evolving field,” Chief Justice John Roberts wrote for the majority. “The voices in these debates raise sincere concerns; the implications for all are profound.”

He continued, “The Equal Protection Clause does not resolve these disagreements. Nor does it afford us license to decide them as we see best.”

Brandon Showalter, a commentator and journalist with The Christian Post who has extensively researched the transgender movement, called it a “landmark day.”

“This legal battle was about several things, namely whether or not a state — in this case Tennessee — could prohibit controversial medical treatments, to put it mildly, noting that critics of Tennessee’s law now incorrectly believed it violated the Equal Protection Clause,” he said.

Despite the ruling not going as far as some critics might like, Showalter said it’s a “huge win” because it allows around half of all U.S. states with restrictions on puberty blockers, surgeries, and other interventions to keep their laws on the books.

“[It’s] a big win for sanity, a big win for America’s children,” he said. “It’s a major blow against the industry.”

Showalter said the U.S. government is taking an active role in pushing back against the transgender movement, citing a recent report about the Federal Trade Commission’s plans to hold a hearing July 9 on the subject of minors and the transgender issue.

“The Federal Trade Commission [a federal agency] about consumer protection and policing unjust trade practices has decided to, in July, study and likely move against the transgender industry, particularly the marketing and practice of so-called gender-affirming care on minor children,” Showalter previously told CBN News. “And it’s very likely that they will then classify the administration of puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and the performing of body disfiguring surgeries on minors as a kind of unfair or unjust trade.”

The commentator sees this move — and the SCOTUS decision — as evidence of the “turn towards sanity” happening in America right now. He expects the FTC event to include experts and others who will expose what he believes are “unjust, deceptive trade practices and consumer fraud.”

And Showalter believes there’s even more to come.

“[It’s] possible that even more legislation will come forward,” he said. “Now, I’m seeing signs of states trying to make meaningful reparations for detransitioners and protect whistleblowers who have come forward and expose the harm that’s going on within institutions.”
