NOTABLE QUOTES

Sundance contributor to The Last Refuge: The biggest lie in modern economics, willingly spread and maintained by corporate media, is that a system of global markets still exists. It doesn’t. Every element of global economic trade is controlled and exploited by massive institutions, multinational banks and multinational corporations. Institutions like the World Trade Organization (WTO) and World Bank control trillions of dollars in economic activity. Underneath that economic activity, there are people who hold the reins of power over the outcomes. These individuals and groups are the stakeholders in direct opposition to principles of America First national economics. They are collectively known as “The Big Club.”

Alan M. Dershowitz contributor to Gatestone Institute: Whatever one may think of Trump or the charges against him, all Americans must stand united against efforts to intimidate lawyers and chill them from defending unpopular clients pursuant to the 6th Amendment. Bar associations must look into the threats and actions of The 65 Project and of prosecutors who try, by subtle or other means, to influence the representation of clients by threats to their careers or other means.

Sundance contributor to The Last Refuge: Good grief, who needs Democrat firepower when you can always count on Republicans to shoot themselves to save their enemies.  Twenty House Republicans joined with House Democrats to defeat a censure motion that would have triggered an investigation of the notoriously corrupt Adam Schiff (CA).

Dave Walsh is an energy consultant and former president of Mitsubishi Power Systems: “If there are DeSantis supporters out there please tell us what his actual energy policy is for the nation because the one being imposed in Florida is 100% solar battery storage China sourced energy plan being enacted here by one of his largest corporate donors that’s NextEra the utility here that supports 60% of Floridians.”

Brian C. Joondeph contributor to American Thinker: The FBI’s mission is “To protect the American people and uphold the U.S. Constitution.” Their motto is “Fidelity, Bravery, and Integrity”. How is the FBI doing on these fronts? What are they protecting the American people from? Are they upholding the Constitution? Who is their fidelity to? Do they act with integrity? The current FBI fails on all these counts. They have morphed from the premier law enforcement agency in the world to a Democrat party superPAC.

Brian Lonergan contributor to American Greatness: The defiance of or silent refusal to enforce our federal laws on immigration are a blaring invitation to the rest of the world to violate our national sovereignty. The deluge is not “uninvited.” Rather, it is a result of the reckless agenda from those in power who claim to be protecting us.

Dr. Dru Kristenev contributor to Canada Free Press: One more step beyond the indoctrination of children by openly exposing them to self-obsessed sexual deviants is the craven commercial enterprise of human trafficking. That the United States is the largest market for women and children sold into sex slavery, and that Biden’s open border policy is knowingly aiding this industry, should horrify the average citizen. Statistics regarding how many babies, toddlers, young children and teens disappear into the country’s interior after being smuggled across the border by the cartels (which Texas Governor Abbott finally designated “terrorists”) have surpassed the official number of 85,000. The question is, how many government officials, both highly placed and administrative grunts, are benefiting financially from these crimes against humanity? It should be asked of every candidate how they will deal with shutting down a $150 billion a year industry (as of 2020)… or will they turn a blind eye as the current White House occupant has done. When the culture of “Me” has become a culture of devaluing human life to gratify degenerate proclivities and pad bank accounts, the possibility of redemption is fast slipping away.

Rob Jenkins contributor to American Thinker: So what messages now permeate our culture regarding pedophilia? Well, if we include in the definition the exploitation of children for adults’ sexual pleasure, whether direct or vicarious, then the answer is that many seem to think it’s no big deal. Hence, the sexual indoctrination of children at school, their inclusion in Pride parades, and “drag-queen storytime.” All, I believe, can be accurately described as “grooming” — sexualizing children in an attempt to make them more susceptible to recruitment and ultimately seduction by adults. 

Steven Kessler contributor to American Thinker: I submit that pedophilia is the final frontier, but then again, who knows?  So long as the liberals believe morality consists in living authentically, looking within, and living a life without shame, the boundaries of socially acceptable behavior will move in directions and places our ancestors could have never imagined.

Jennifer Rawls contributor to The Federalist: In the name of “dismantling power structures and dynamics” around sexuality, queer theorists must make things that were once taboo (like sexualizing children) no longer taboo. Queer theorists excuse the immorality of pedophilia away because it helps them achieve their own agenda.

Spencer Lindquist contributor to The Federalist: Child grooming is already commonplace within the transgender movement as it has been since its inception, and attempts to normalize pedophilia have already hit the mainstream. . . . Make no mistake, the transgender movement is predicated on a psuedo-academic legacy that’s replete with the most egregious crimes against children.

BIDEN’S DEMOCRAT PARTY MARXIST PLAYBOOK: PERSECUTE YOUR OPPOSITION, PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP

(A must read) Dershowitz: Why Donald Trump Cannot Get a Top-Tier Lawyer

  • There are disturbing suggestions that among the reasons lawyers are declining the case is because they fear legal and career reprisals.
  • There is a nefarious group that calls itself The 65 Project that has as its goal to intimidate lawyers into not representing Trump or anyone associated with him. They have threatened to file bar charges against any such lawyers.
  • I wrote an op-ed offering to defend pro bono any lawyers that The 65 Project goes after. So The 65 Project immediately went after me, and contrived a charge based on a case in which I was a constitutional consultant, but designed to send a message to potential Trump lawyers: If you defend Trump or anyone associated with him, we will target you and find something to charge you with. The lawyers to whom I spoke are fully aware of this threat — and they are taking it seriously…. It may even be worse today….
  • Good lawyers… generally welcome challenges, especially in high-profile cases. This case is different: the threats to the lawyers are greater than at any time since McCarthyism. Nor is the comparison to McCarthyism a stretch. I recall during the 1950s how civil liberties lawyers, many of whom despised communism, were cancelled, and attacked if they dared to represent people accused of being communists.

York: Donald Trump’s Arraignment

A few days have passed since the Justice Department informed former President Donald Trump that he had been indicted. Some of the main issues involved, both legal and political, are becoming clearer than they were in the first frenzied hours after the news broke. First, the politics. The early indications are that predictions that Trump supporters would rally around him in the event of an indictment appear to be true. A poll by CBS News and YouGov found that 76% of likely Republican primary voters said that the indictment was politically motivated. When asked if the indictment would change their view of Trump, 61% said it would not change their view at all, while 14% said it would change their view of Trump for the better. Just seven percent said it would change their view of Trump for the worse, and 18% said it depends, meaning they weren’t really sure. […]  More from Yoo: “Biden administration officials must explain why prosecuting Trump for misuse of classified documents justifies disregarding two centuries of constitutional practice.” That is perhaps the most important question of the entire Trump prosecution: . . .

Goodman and Andrew Weismann: Jack Smith’s Backup Option

Donald Trump was indicted in Florida. Could he also face charges in New Jersey? […]  Trump’s Bedminster conduct, as described in the indictment, appears to fit the description of two federal offenses designed to keep America’s national-security secrets safe. One makes it a crime to intentionally communicate national-defense information to people not authorized to receive it, and the other makes it a crime to intentionally disclose classified information to the same. These are more serious crimes than willful retention of such documents, which is done to prevent possible leakage. Deliberate dissemination is the leakage itself. The Justice Manual, the Department of Justice’s guidebook on criminal procedure, as well as guidance from the attorney general’s office, advises prosecutors to give strong consideration to charges of dissemination before making them. According to the manual, once a determination is made that an indictment is warranted, “the prosecutor must select the most appropriate charges,” and “ordinarily, those charges will include the most serious offense that is encompassed by the defendant’s conduct and that is likely to result in a sustainable conviction.” Attorney General Merrick Garland has indicated that the prosecutor can consider a number of factors in deciding whether to bring the most serious charges. Smith appears to have taken a cautious, narrow approach. Even though the indictment describes alleged dissemination and disclosure of national-security secrets, the indictment did not charge Trump with those offenses. One possible explanation for his decision: venue. The Constitution requires prosecutors to bring charges in the location—or venue—where the alleged criminal conduct took place. Justice Department prosecutors could not necessarily bring charges against Trump in Miami for alleged criminal conduct that occurred in another state, in this case New Jersey. But the absence of such charges in the indictment raises the intriguing possibility of another indictment to come, in a jurisdiction, no less, with a pool of jurors and judges more favorable to the government’s case against Trump.

TYRANNY IN THE NAME OF CLIMATE DOOM MYTH: GLOBALIST POLITICIANS & BIG BUSINESS ACCUMULATE MORE  POWER & CONTROL

Jessop: National Guard warns proposed wind farm poses safety threat

A proposed wind farm has given rise to concerns by state military officials who say the windmills pose a threat to the safety of its training operations. The windmills would be located within the buffer zone surrounding Ft. Indiantown Gap and lawmakers want to require permission from federal authorities before permits are granted to install them. The project, known as Anthracite Ridge, would sit approximately 15 miles north of the military base and within its flight paths. […]  Many people may be aware that the Gap serves as headquarters for the National Guard, he said, but it is perhaps less well known that it serves as a training facility for all branches of our nation’s armed forces, as well as law enforcement and homeland defense professionals. […]  Mueller said their flight crews regularly conduct night-time operations, and the windmills would make already dangerous training even riskier.

Thornton: From Science to a Suicidal Cult

The death in prison last week of ecoterrorist Theodore Kaczynski, the notorious Unabomber who in the Nineties killed three people and wounded 23 with package-bombs. The occasion of his death reminds us how an environmental movement that started by focusing on improving human well-being––providing clean air and water, and practicing prudent resource management–– has devolved into an irrational cult replete with terrorist fanatics and Disneyesque fantasies about humanity’s relationship with the natural world. More dangerous is the transformation of global public energy policies into “net-zero carbon” and “green renewable” energy despite being based on incomplete, if not dubious, science. Worse, their trillions in cost are currently endangering the economies of the rich West, and the economic development of poorer underdeveloped Rest, by proscribing the cheap, abundant fossil-fuel energy that powered the West’s creation of the richest, freest, most well-fed human beings who ever existed. The Nineties were when the “global warming” crisis ramped-up the justifications for these dangerous policies––a few years after the brief apocalyptic fad of an impending new ice age. From well-heeled professors and celebrities, to politicians and disaffected suburbanites, romantic environmentalism began colonizing academic research, school curricula, and government policy, while propagating numerous corporate grifters exploiting government mandates on recycling refuse and developing “alternative energy” to replace icky energy from cheap fossil fuels. The Unabomber was the most visible expression of this new, dangerous sensibility, by . . .

THE CORRUPT & DANGEROUS U.S. INTELLIGENCE AGENCIES & THE ADMINISTRATIVE STATE APPARATUS

VDH: Indict Walt Nauta? Why Not the Biggest Liars First?

Walt Nauta is a 10-year-Navy veteran and served as an aide to former President Trump both in and out of office.  Special Counsel Jack Smith has now indicted him for allegedly “making false statements in interviews with the FBI.” The indictment’s subtext is that Nauta refused to cooperate with, and turn state’s evidence to, the special counsel in its efforts to convict the former president. But why stop the indictments with a man who loyally served and followed the orders of the former president of the United States, was a Navy veteran, and a hard-working immigrant from Guam?

Are there not far bigger fish to fry to remind Americans that justice is blind? After all, when Special Counsel Smith announced his indictments of Trump, he lectured America on the rule of law and the cherished notion that no one is above it.

So let us start with the former interim director of the FBI itself, Andrew McCabe.

Revolver.news: Former Head of FBI J6 Pipe Bomb Investigation Comes Clean With Stunning Admission: “I Don’t Want Any Conspiracy Theories, Right?”

Finally, we said that we haven’t heard the last from Mr. D’Antuono. Now, we are in a position to reveal that Mar-a-Lago is not the only subject matter D’Antuono discussed with the committee, and that Revolver News’ Darren Beattie worked with Congressman Thomas Massie to produce questions concerning the pipe bomb investigation for D’Antuono to answer. A letter recently published by Jim Jordan alludes to some of the stunning results of this interrogation. Here is the background from the Jim Jordan letter (emphasis ours): . . .  […]  Anyone who has followed Revolver’s ground-breaking coverage of the pipe bomb investigation knows that the alleged pipe bomber depicted in the surveillance footage presented by the FBI is using a cell phone. It is by now common practice for law enforcement to use geo-fencing technology to find out the identity of a person if they know where the person was at a particular time. In fact, it is public knowledge that the FBI has used precisely this geo-fencing technology to identify a number of January 6 protestors. […] According to Jim Jordan’s letter, Congressman Thomas Massie asked D’Antuono whether they attempted to identify the pipe bomber via geofencing, and received the following shocking answer: the data was corrupted! The telecom company just by sheer coincidence happened to lose the data for that particular place and time! Here’s D’Antuono’s answer when asked about geofencing (emphasis ours): . . .

Twenty Republicans in the House of Representatives sided with most Democrats Wednesday in voting to set aside a resolution that would have censured Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., for insisting that former President Donald Trump colluded with Russia to win the 2016 election. The 225-196 vote effectively killed the resolution introduced by Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, R-Fla., and included two other Republican lawmakers voting “present” along with five Democrats.

Colton: House Republicans notch win in effort to overturn Biden admin’s ‘unconstitutional’ pistol brace rule

House Republicans delivered a blow to the Biden administration’s federal regulation on pistols with stabilizing braces, voting in favor of an NRA-supported resolution that aims to overturn the rule. The measure, H.J.Res.44, would nullify the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) rule that regulates stabilizing braces for pistols and prevent the ATF from reintroducing the same rule in the future. […] The resolution passed nearly along party lines Tuesday evening at 219-210, with two Democrats voting in support and two Republicans voting against the measure. […]   “The pistol brace ban by President Joe Biden’s ATF is just another example of blatant bureaucratic overreach from this administration, and it illustrates the dangers of an unchecked federal agency that is willing to go around Congress and the millions of constituents we represent,” Hudson said in a comment provided to Fox News Digital. “Americans are tired of unelected bureaucrats making up new laws that infringe on their constitutional rights, and I want to thank Rep. Clyde for partnering with me to lead this legislation – with bipartisan support – through the House.” […]  The resolution is now headed to the Senate. If passed by the Senate and subsequently vetoed by Biden, the House and Senate would need a two-thirds majority vote to override the presidential veto.

Knox: Matt Gaetz holds first House hearing on alleged abuse against Jan. 6 defendants

Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) held a House hearing with Jan. 6 defendants and family members, the first of its kind, during which they outlined accusations of abuse of power from the government. Gaetz was joined by Reps. Lauren Boebert (R-CO), Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), Ralph Norman (R-SC), Paul Gosar (R-AZ), and Troy Nehls (R-TX). The House members were joined by two legal experts, two Jan. 6 defendants, two family members of defendants, and one journalist and witness of the riot. The field hearing, titled the “Field Hearing on January 6,” heard testimony alleging widespread abuse on the part of law enforcement concerning the Jan. 6 riot itself and the treatment of those detained over their alleged involvement. […] Among the first testimonies was that of Geri Perna, who gave a tearful testimony detailing the circumstances under which her nephew, Matthew Perna, 37, killed himself following his conviction over nonviolent conduct on Jan. 6.

Miller: Feds banned from flying non-US flags under new GOP bill after White House flies Pride flag

The bill, known as the One Flag for All Act, will make it illegal to fly, drape or display any flag other than the American flag on federal buildings or properties, with limited exceptions. His bill is a response to the Biden administration’s decision to fly the pride flag more prominently than the American flag over the weekend during a gay pride celebration at the White House. “This is a disgrace,” the Kansas senator tweeted at the time. “Not only is it in breach of US Flag Code, but it’s a glaring example of this White House’s incompetence and insistence on putting their social agenda ahead of patriotism.”

Greenfield: Biden May Let Iran Collect Billions for Release of U.S. Hostages

What’s worse than a formal deal with Iran? An informal deal with the Islamic terror state. The enforcement elements on the formal deal were mostly worthless and put Iran on a track to nukes. You can only imagine how truly spectacularly reliable they’ll be on the informal deal. The Biden administration has been negotiating quietly with Iran to limit Tehran’s nuclear program and free imprisoned Americans, according to officials from three countries, in part of a larger U.S. effort to ease tensions and reduce the risk of a military confrontation with the Islamic Republic. […]  Islam does allow cease fires with infidels. But the cease fire only lasts until the Islamic cause is in a position to annihilate the infidels it reached a cease fire agreement with. […]  Our negotiators want to give up everything in exchange for the reassurance that they’re making the world a better place. Much like Hitler and Chamberlain, it’s not much of a competition.

(2019)  Keiper: Human trafficking in America among worst in world: report

“We’re also driving the demand with our own people, with our own kids,” Rogers said. “So there are tremendous numbers of kids, a multitude of kids that are being sold as sex slaves today in America.These are American kids, American-born, 50 percent to 60 percent of them coming out of the foster care industry.” This assertion is confirmed by the State Department’s report, which found that children in foster care, homeless youth, undocumented immigrant children and those with substance abuse problems were especially at risk to fall into the human trafficking trap. Rogers says that because the demand is so great in the U.S., traffickers are filling that demand with an increased supply of forced sex workers. “So the demand here in the United States is a global one,” he said. “We do have men traveling the globe to go to places like Thailand and other places in East Asia to purchase sex with kids. But, in fact, the demand is so great that the supply has needed to be filled here in the United States.” “Because of the demand, then these traffickers are filling that demand with supply. And the demand is so great here in the United States that they’re filling the supply with our very own kids,” Rogers continued.

(A shocking expose) Real Women/Real Stories: EXTENDED: “The Franklin Scandal” (Includes an exclusive interview w/ John DeCamp)

This is an extended, unseen version of the Franklin scandal, a chilling exposé of corporate corruption and government cover-ups, but more so, a nationwide child-trafficking and pedophilia ring in the United States. The documentary tells a sordid tale of corruption in high places when children were apparently flown around the US to be abused by high-ranking officials. This version is with extras including including John DeCamp exclusive interview. The Franklin scandal (“Conspiracy of Silence”) originally surfaced during an investigation into Omaha, Nebraska’s failed Franklin Federal Credit Union that went beyond the Midwest, ultimately to Washington, DC. Implicating businessmen, senators, major media corporations, the CIA, and even the venerable Boys Town organization, this extensively researched report includes firsthand interviews with key witnesses and explores a controversy that has received scant media attention. This is a clear eyed look into a largely untold, malignant and proliferating evil that has America by the balls.

(Feb. 2020) ISSTD News: An Interview with Nick Bryant: Part II – The Epstein Affair

This is the second part of a two-part series. Warwick Middleton: I’m going to ask for your thoughts in regards to the Epstein matter, and we’re going to talk more about it. One of the key witnesses that has made her testimony quite public is Virginia Roberts, or Virginia Guiffre as she now known. She has stated that she was pandered by Jeffrey Epstein to a large number of rich and powerful figures who include senior political figures and a member of the British royal family. She (also) says – and this is yet to be fully established by other witnesses – that Jeffrey Epstein was secretly recording at least some of the sexual contacts she allegedly had with senior figures and that presumably tapes of these contacts exist somewhere. We know that very recently when the Southern District of New York launched an investigation that the first thing they did was to use a crow-bar to break Jeffrey Epstein’s front door to his 7-story mansion and to go then straight to his safe. What do you think is going on? Nick Bryant: One of the discs was allegedly labelled with the name of a person who is affluent, a powerbroker and then (the name of) a victim. We don’t know the victim and we don’t know the power-broker. But I have known that Jeffrey Epstein has been clandestinely taping people. In 2005, when the Palm Beach Police Depart served a warrant on Jeffrey Epstein’s home, they found two hidden cameras. Hidden cameras have been a part of his reality for quite some time.

DEMOCRAT PARTY MARXIST PLAYBOOK’S DUAL TRACK: SEXUALIZE CHILDREN & NORMALIZE PEDOPHILIA

(Jan. 2022) Lindquist: Why Accepting Child Transgenderism Will Pave The Way For Accepting Pedophilia

The dangerous claim that children can meaningfully consent to puberty blockers, hormone replacement therapy, or genital mutilation is, besides itself being deeply harmful, also leading our society down a sinister path towards accepting pedophilia. Here’s how.

Morabito: The Pedophile Project: Your 7-Year-Old Is Next On The Sexual Revolution’s Hit Parade

Activists for normalizing pedophilia are on the move. Public acceptance of adult sex with children is the next domino poised to fall in identity politics. It’s being sustained, among other things, by the rapid sexualization of children in the media and in K-12 education. We cannot dismiss the campaign to legalize pedophilia as fringy stuff that will get nowhere. It’s real and it’s here and it’s gaining strength. It’s a very logical outgrowth of the nihilism inherent in the sexual revolution. […]  As with any propaganda campaign that pushes outrageous changes on an unwary public, it’s all about timing. Academics might refer to timing as the Overton Window or the Availability Cascade. But we should all be able to understand the process of conditioning the public to accept the unacceptable. […]  We’ve already being desensitized to the sexualization of children and implanting gender confusion in them. Parents from Long Beach, California to Queens, New York are taking their toddlers to drag queen story times at local libraries. Some, like the mother of nine-year-old Lactatia, now actually groom their boys to be drag queens and encourage them to get other children to do the same. […] Just as the American Psychiatric Association (APA) re-classified gender identity disorder to gender identity dysphoria, it also tinkered with classifying pedophilia in its fifth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-V.) As the psycho-bible of mental disorders, the DSM has always been the go-to source for making the sexual revolution the law of the land. Its reclassifications of homosexuality and transgenderism are really just the beginning. All that remains is for the medical establishment to officially proclaim that pedophilia is a sexual orientation.

(July, 2021) Jenkins: Mainstreaming Pedophilia

After the U. S. Supreme Court decided to change the 6,000-year-old definition of marriage in Obergefell v. Hodges, I predicted to a liberal friend that the Left’s next big push would be to normalize and ultimately legalize pedophilia. Of course, he scoffed at the notion. In all fairness, he was right — but just barely. The next item on the Left’s agenda, it turned out, was changing the definition of biological sex and thus normalizing gender dysphoria. But mainstreaming pedophilia was not far behind. Actually, that has long been part of the Left’s plan to “fundamentally change” society by blowing up all its most basic and vital institutions — in particular, the nuclear family. Strong traditional families tend to raise children with good sense who can think and do for themselves.  Such independence is antithetical to the Left’s designs. Thus, children must be alienated from their parents — and what better way to accomplish that than by enticing them into decadent and even deviant behaviors?  […]  For example, NAMBLA, the North American Man-Boy Love Association, has been in existence since 1978. The group is described as “a pedophilia and pederasty advocacy organization” whose goal is “to abolish age-of-consent laws criminalizing adult sexual involvement with minors.”

(December 2021) Defending Pedophilia Is The Logical Conclusion Of Queer Theory

Allyn Walker, a former professor at Old Dominion University who identifies as non-binary, resigned last month following criticism stemming from Walker’s views on pedophilia. Walker argued that pedophiles should be destigmatized by identifying them as “minor-attracted persons” (“MAPs”) rather than the pejorative term “pedophile,” because attraction to children is a sexual orientation and not immoral. […]  Using a “deconstructionist” perspective, Walker argues that pedophilia is a “social construct.” She boldly concludes that sexual attraction to minors is not morally offensive and claims that the vilification of pedophilia is more about control of sexual minorities than it is about the health or safety of children.

Alfonseca &  Katersky: Grand jury indicts Daniel Penny in chokehold death of Jordan Neely

A grand jury has indicted former U.S. Marine Daniel Penny in connection with the chokehold death of Jordan Neely aboard a subway train.

Wright: Harvard Medical School morgue manager ‘stole heads, brains, skin, bones from donated bodies and took them to his New Hampshire home where he and his wife sold them’

Cedric Lodge is said to have stolen the remains from cadavers donated to the prestigious university for scientific research and education. The filing states that Lodge took the dissected body parts to his home in Goffstown New Hampshire, where he and his wife Denise, sold them on as part of a national network of human remains traffickers. Some of the remains were even shipped through the United States Postal Service. U.S. Attorney’s Office believe Lodge to have engaged in the unlawful trafficking of human remains between 2018 through to August 16, 2022 whilst working in the morgue as part of the university’s Anatomical Gift Program. […]  ‘At times, Cedric Lodge used his access to the morgue to allow Katrina MacLean, Joshua Taylor and others to enter the morgue and choose what remains to purchase,’ the indictment states.

Van maren: Behind ‘Elliot’ Page’s gender confusion is the heartbreaking trauma of sexual abuse

On her Instagram page, Ellen “Elliot” Page regularly posts photographs of her new life as a male. She’s smiling in almost all of them, but the smiles never seem to reach her eyes — and no matter how many celebratory emojis and supportive comments are posted, there is something heartbreaking and tragic about the shirtless photos that display her red, jagged chest scars and mangled nipples where the surgeon removed her breasts. As I noted several years ago when TIME published a photo essay and feature article on her “gender transition,” lauding her transformation and her “joy,” she still looked desperately sad — as if she had endured a tragedy. As Page’s new memoir Pageboy reveals, she has endured many — and I suspect that the predation Page has suffered at the hands of Hollywood abusers has much to do with the confusion she has lived through for years.

Hazard: Americans identifying as socially conservative reach 11-year high, poll

Jones also says the shift is mostly due to increasing social conservatism among Republicans, at a time when social issues such as transgenderism and abortion are prominent in the national public debate. The increase this year is up from 33% last year and 30% in 2021. The survey was conducted May 1-24 among a random sampling of 1,011 respondents.

Greenfield: First Muslim Majority City in U.S. Bans Gay Pride Flags

After hours of debate and hearing from residents, Hamtramck City Council has passed the resolution to ban LGBTQ+ Pride flags unanimously. Hamtramck is the first majority-Muslim city in America. And the LGBTQ movement clashes with Islam. Some members of the all-Muslim council said the pride flag clashes with the beliefs of some members of their faith. Bad news for diversity.

Spencer: Muslims Sue FBI for Religious Discrimination, Feds Base Their Defense on ‘Secret Evidence’

Now here’s an interesting case. A group of Muslims is suing the FBI, claiming religious discrimination over surveillance that the feds carried out a few years after 9/11. The hard-Left ACLU and the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) are siding with the plaintiffs, which ordinarily would be a massive red flag impugning their case, but the FBI’s entire case is based on its trustworthiness as an institution. And after all we have seen over the last few years, can anyone really trust the FBI?

Eli Steele Threadreader: You hear about how bad San Francisco is.

I was filming a shot of my father, Shelby Steele, and in the ten minutes we were gone our SUV was broken into and nearly $15k of cameras stolen. Called 911 & they hung up twice. This is the video. Black Chevy Blazer with license plate #9AAZ318. Still no SF police. Found more equipment missing. Now about $25k -$30k. Plus rental car damage. SF police doing nothing. It’s so bad that my friend is calling gang members for help. At the police. Every single person here had their car broken into and we’ve been here 15 minutes!
