Planned Parenthood Resists Probe Into Transing Kids.

Planned Parenthood in Missouri is stonewalling an investigation into its “treatment” of transgender kids, refusing to comply with a court order to release treatment records.

Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey won a court battle against Planned Parenthood, with St. Louis Circuit Judge Michael Stelzer ruling the abortion provider cannot use Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) regulations to avoid revealing whether it has subjected minors to transgender therapies.

Bailey described the judgment as significant for his investigation into transgender health clinics’ “treatment” of minors in Missouri. However, only the Children’s Mercy Hospital in Kansas City has surrendered documents following legal victories over three clinics. Planned Parenthood Great Plains has appealed to maintain its document privacy, and Planned Parenthood St. Louis, which was ordered to release files, has yet to comply.

Bailey has expressed concerns over Planned Parenthood’s non-compliance and promised continued legal actions to protect children and bring clarity.

“It’s extremely questionable that Planned Parenthood is actively stonewalling our investigations,” he said. “I had to haul them into court in order to get a judge to force them to turn over the documents we’ve requested.”

Judge Stelzer ruled Bailey “is investigating possible dishonesty by [Planned Parenthood] in their medical and billing practices” and affirmed the AG’s “broad investigative powers when the consumer is in possible need of protection.”

Missouri banned the administration of puberty blockers, hormones, and other transgender medical interventions to children in August 2023.

Illegals Told to ‘Vote for Biden’ in Flyers Found at NGO Site in Mexico.

Flyers urging illegal aliens to vote for Joe Biden have been discovered at a site in Mexico operated by Resource Center Matamoros (RCM), a complex operated by a non-governmental organization (NGO) that assists immigrants attempting to gain asylum in the United States.

“Reminder to vote for President Biden when you are in the United States,” read the Spanish-language flyers discovered inside port-a-potties and other locations throughout the RCM site by Muckraker.com. They bear RCM branding and carry RCM contact information.

The RCM is operated by the Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society (HIAS), an NGO that previously boasted Biden’s foreign-born Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas as a board member.

The Oversight Project shared audio obtained by Muckraker on RCM founder Gaby Zavala, in which she is alleged to have “implied… that she wants to help as many illegals as possible before President Trump is reelected.” Zavala was previously an organizer for La Union del Pueblo Entero (LUPE), a partner of the Open Society Foundations (OSF) group founded by George Soros.

Officially, illegal aliens are barred from voting in federal elections, but weak laws around voter identification leave room for this to be circumvented. The Biden campaign has been notably resistant to proposals by Donald Trump and Speaker Mike Johnson to require prospective voters to prove citizenship.

Illegal immigration can strengthen the Democrats, even without illegal aliens voting directly, by boosting the population in ways that allow favorable redistricting. Fifty-four percent of likely voters believe Biden has been “encouraging” illegal immigration to  “create a permanent majority” for the Democrats.

CNN Admits ‘It’s An Election Interference Trial’ – BUT Not For the Obvious Reason…

CNN legal analyst and globalist hatchet man Norman Eisen has argued it is “wrong” to describe George Soros-backed District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s prosecution of Donald Trump in Manhattan as a “hush money” case.

“We should call it an ‘election interference’ trial going forward,” Eisen said, echoing a sentiment often expressed by Trump himself – though the CNN employee believes it is Trump, not his Democrat prosecutors, who may be responsible for the interference.

Eisen noted that Democrat-linked Judge Juan Merchan, describing the case to potential jurors, said the allegations “that Donald Trump falsified business records to conceal an agreement with others to unlawfully influence the 2016 presidential election.”

“Paying hush money by itself is not a crime. The crime alleged in this case is felony document falsification, as the judge detailed. That requires intent to conceal, aid or commit another crime,” Eisen explained.

“Here, the prosecution alleges that the intent was to violate federal campaign finance laws and also the state statute prohibiting the ‘unlawful influence’ of an election — i.e., election interference.”

NOVEL APPROACH. 

This approach by Bragg, which has allowed him to elevate the charges against Trump from misdemeanor to felony, is novel and, in the eyes of many legal experts, dubious, as the “other crime” the former president supposedly committed is not being prosecuted.

Eisen conceded the alleged accounting issues with so-called “hush money” payments to Stormy Daniels to settle claims of an affair, which Trump denies, date from 2017, after the 2016 election had concluded.

The CNN analyst argues the payment was itself election interference, however, claiming “no one can seriously dispute that the reason… Trump allegedly hatched the scheme was to deprive voters of information that could have changed the outcome of an extremely close election.”

“When information is withheld from voters, as Bragg alleges happened here, that undermines democracy… It is an election interference [trial] and we should say so,” he concluded.

He did not touch on whether censorship of the Hunter Biden laptop story in 2020 would qualify as election interference on behalf of Biden under this definition.

Trump Blasts NY Judge for Attacking His Family (While Placing a ‘Gag Order’ Over His Daughter’s Links to Democrats).

Donald Trump slammed New York Supreme Court Judge Juan Merchan for hinting he would block him from attending the graduation of his youngest son, Barron.

Merchan, who has already threatened to have Trump arrested if he misses a single day of his so-called “hush money” trial to campaign for the presidency, has declined to rule on whether or not the former president can be excused for his son’s high school graduation: “It really depends on if we are on time and where we are in the trial,” he said.

“My son has graduated from high school, and it looks like the judge will not let me go to the graduation of my son, who has worked very very hard,” Trump told reporters.

Later, he posted a more extensive statement on Truth Social, demanding: “Who will explain for me, to my wonderful son, Barron, who is a GREAT Student at a fantastic School, that his Dad will likely not be allowed to attend his Graduation Ceremony, something that we have been talking about for years, because a seriously Conflicted and Corrupt New York State Judge wants me in Criminal Court on a bogus “Biden Case” which, according to virtually all Legal Scholars and Pundits, has no merit, and should NEVER have been brought?”

“The Judge, Juan Merchan, is preventing me from proudly attending my son’s Graduation. Seems very unfair, doesn’t it? But this whole event is unfair,” he added.

Trump’s lawyers asked Merchan to recuse himself before the trial, citing his family’s links to Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. Merchan’s daughter has shared manipulated images of the former president behind bars, apparently in the hope her father will imprison him.

Merchan refused to recuse himself and banned Trump from “attacking” his family.

Denver Mayor Slashes Funding for Police, Fire Depts., Shifts $90M to Pay for Illegals.

Denver, Colorado, Mayor Mike Johnston announced he will raid city coffers and slash the police, firefighter, and 9-1-1 call center budgets to boost funding for housing and other services for illegal immigrants. Johnston, who has embraced the Biden government’s term “newcomers” to refer to the city’s burgeoning illegal alien population, said the cuts are necessary to afford the $89.9 million in new spending on illegals.

The city’s police department will see a $8.4 million cut in its budget, while the Denver fire department will have its budget slashed by $2.5 million. In addition, 9-1-1 operators would be forced to take a pay cut. Other city services will be reduced by $45.9 million as part of the funding shift, which prioritizes Denver’s illegal immigrant population of its legal residents.

“After more than a year of facing this crisis together, Denver finally has a sustainable plan for treating our newcomers with dignity while avoiding the worst cuts to city services,” Johnston claimed during the April 10 announcement of his budget plan. He continued: “So many times, we were told that we couldn’t be compassionate while still being fiscally responsible. Today is proof that our hardest challenges are still solvable and that together we are the ones who will solve them.”

Johnston has joined other state and local Democratic politicians across the U.S. in asking for the Biden government to provide financial assistance for cities as well as increase the number of work permits for illegal immigrants. “We think if the federal government can take action on the supplemental budget that President Biden has proposed, that would be $14 billion that could help meet this need,” the Denver mayor said earlier this year. Johnston’s budget will head to the Denver City Council for debate and a final vote on April 16.
