Legendary rapper Flavor Flav, also known as William Drayton Jr., fulfilled what he called a “long-time bucket list item” when he performed the U.S. national anthem this past Sunday at a major basketball event between the Milwaukee Bucks and the Atlanta Hawks. Anticipation was high, as fans were eager to witness his distinctive vocal rendition of the Star-Spangled Banner. Throughout his two-and-a-half minute performance, the crowd’s warm reception and the highlighted reactions from the players, some visibly bemused, encapsulated the unique spectacle.

Charles Denby, the co-founder and CEO of Berkeley Yeast, and his team are modifying yeast strains to “optimize” the taste of beer. Through genetic modification, Berkeley Yeast says it can enhance or diminish desirable and undesirable flavors as well as introduce new ones. One of its products, the Tropics yeast, has been engineered to provide the taste of passion fruit and guava.
The California-based firm also claims to be using gene-editing to eliminate unfavorable byproducts such as diacetyl, a substance that imparts a buttery taste to hoppy beers. The research has also enabled it to reduce the fermentation time required to create Belgian-style sour beer. The use of these GM yeast strains is becoming commonplace in the United States, where regulation of GM foods is relatively lenient.
Many consumers rightly remain wary of genetically modified ingredients. In countries where the acceptance of GM foods is lower, such as the UK, the beer must be labeled as containing GM ingredients, limiting marketability. Furthermore, some brewers prefer traditional methods of flavoring and view GM methods unfavorably. Despite this, the brewing industry is closely watching developments in genetic modification as the potential benefits of flavor consistency and reduced resource usage become more apparent.

The American Academy of Pediatricians (AAP) is encouraging pediatricians to talk to children about their gender identity and teenagers about their sexual behavior, presentation slides unearthed from the organization’s 2023 annual conference have revealed.
The AAP informed those at the conference that what they learned in medical school is “probably now irrelevant” because identities “shift and change through life.” Instead, gender and sexual identities have become “part of human diversity, not disorders.”
Doctors were advised to start decorating their offices and practices with pride flags, “inclusive forms,” charts reflecting names and pronouns, and even wear pronoun stickers on their ID badges. They were also told to open conversations with children by asking, “what pronouns do you use?” as well as questions like “do you think of yourself as male [or] female?”
The AAP explained later in the presentation that doctors should begin asking teenagers whether they were in an “intimate relationship,” are “monogamous,” and, disturbingly, what parts of their body they use for sexual pleasure.
When discussing human anatomy with children and teenagers, the AAP encourages feminine parts to be renamed to “innie, front hole, dick or dicklet (clitoris), T-penis, chest/chesticles,” and masculine parts to “outie, junk, strapless, [or] bits.”
The organization, which receives millions of dollars in government funding annually, has been aggressively pushing transgenderism onto children for a number of years and is a strong proponent of giving “puberty-blockers to pre-pubescent children” under the guise of “gender-affirming care.”

This thread will detail how the @AmerAcadPeds teaches pediatricians how to groom gender confused children into a lifetime of medical experimentation while also manipulating their families.

Behind-the-scenes political intrigue exclusively for Pulse+ subscribers.
The leftist “news” website RawStory is apparently extremely upset that National Pulse Editor-in-Chief Raheem Kassam took aim at Judge Arthur Engoron’s appearance this weekend, dedicating an entire “news” article to a humorous X post (tweet) that highlighted the troglodytic nature of former President Donald J. Trump’s clearly biased New York judge.
“Judge Arthur Engoron should be fined for his fashion sense. This is a serious sartorial crime. His tailor needs a gag order,” joked Kassam on Friday evening, leading RawStory to hysterically report: “Trump allies attack judge in fraud case over his fashion: ‘His tailor needs a gag order'”.
The sensitivity of the far-left to attacks on Engoron proves how much they have invested their hopes of stopping Donald Trump in this partisan judge.

RawStory claims Kassam’s post “got the ball rolling” before others quickly began following suit in the comment section, which became full “with people criticizing Engoron for his clothes as well as his decisions in the court, and unrelated issues.”

Austin Fletcher, aka Fleccas Talks, explained how the corporate media is falsifying claims of an Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) boycott in order to rehabilitate Bud Light afters its transgender, Dylan Mulvaney ad campaign. In the latest episode of Fleccas Talks, Fletcher notes:
“The way I see it is Bud Light got canceled, how do you fix that? You pay huge money to a company that has your same audience basically but that audience will not cancel that company for the association.”
“UFC has the same audience as Bud Light, people aren’t gonna cancel UFC… so when UFC has the best numbers ever, they’re gonna go: Oh! Bud Light’s back, the UFC didn’t get cancelled, they weren’t able to cancel them.”
The multi-year Bud Light deal is said to be worth over $100 million.

The Constitutional Court of Korea has declined to overturn laws against “anal intercourse” or “any other indecent act” in the South Korean military, ruling by 5-4 in favor of retaining the prohibitions laid down in the Military Criminal Act.
Judges determined that, even if consensual, homosexual acts risk “causing serious harm to preserving the fighting power of the nation’s armed forces” if committed while soldiers are in service.
LGBT lobby groups have expressed anger and disappointment at the ruling, with Amnesty International describing the “continued endorsement [of] the criminalization” of sodomy in the South Korean military as a “distressing setback in the decades-long struggle for equality in the country.”
Around 30 percent of the South Korean population is Christian, and Christian groups have been part of the pushback against the LGBT lobby in the country. Earlier this year, the Seoul Queer Culture Festival – the biggest Pride-style event in South Korea – was not licensed to go ahead at its annual venue, with a Christian youth concert taking place there instead.

Matthew Perry, most famous for playing Chandler Bing on the popular TV sitcom Friends, has died at age 54, according to early reports from TMZ. Law enforcement sources revealed to TMZ that the actor was found in a jacuzzi at a Los Angeles residence on Saturday. Responding units were initially summoned to the scene for a cardiac arrest. TMZ sources also disclosed that no drugs were identified at the site, and foul play is presently not suspected in Perry’s death.
Details pertaining to the circumstances of Perry’s death remain limited. Perry’s last post on Instagram illustrated him relishing a jacuzzi dip; the caption, reading, “Oh, so warm water swirling around makes you feel good? I’m Mattman,” has taken on a haunting significance. Following the announcement of his passing, fans of the actor quickly flocked to social media to pour out tributes and express their disbelief and sorrow.
Offscreen, Perry confronted multiple issues, causing concern among fans. Notions of a return to his erstwhile habits surfaced as observers noted his occasionally disheveled appearance. Perry relocated to a new Los Angeles home earlier this year, and his recent memoir revealed significant details about his personal battles with addiction. Perry’s death has left the broader Friends community and millions of viewers worldwide mourning his loss.

Behind-the-scenes political intrigue exclusively for Pulse+ subscribers.
Mike Johnson, the newly-minted Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives, is standing by an article he wrote some 15 years ago when the Supreme Court overturned state laws criminalizing sodomy, saying: “Go pick up a Bible off your shelf and read it – that’s my worldview. That’s what I believe, so I do not apologize for it.”
Speaker Johnson insisted he “genuinely love[s] all people regardless of their lifestyle choices,” explaining his view on the matter “is not about the people themselves” but about the fact he is “a Bible-believing Christian.”
As a senior counsel at the Alliance Defense Fund, Johnson argued strongly against the Lawrence v. Texas ruling overturning sodomy laws in 13 states. He agreed with the late Justice Anton Scalia that the laws were “not about the persecution of a minority, but whether states have authority to regulate dangerous sexual conduct,” and expressed concern about “the exponential spread of STDs and HIV” – which to the present day is largely contracted and spread by people who engage in male-on-male sexual acts, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC). Contrary to the Lawrence justices, Johnson insisted there was “no right to sodomy in the Constitution.”
Johnson also predicted the ruling would have enormous ramifications in “the battle for the culture” and pave the way for “the homosexual lobby’s ultimate prize – the redefinition of marriage.”
The Supreme Court ruled same-sex couples had the same right to marry as heterosexual couples in 2015.

A British Christian woman was fined by the authorities after she silently prayed outside of an abortion clinic in the English city of Birmingham earlier this month.
Isabel Vaughan-Spruce, who has already received two fines for praying outside other clinics in the UK, was told by a Community Support Officer that she would be issued with a fixed penalty notice because she was praying “for the lives of unborn children” within the facility’s “buffer zone” of 150 meters.
Her actions failed to comply with the “Anti-Social Behaviour Order,” according to the two officers in the video, despite the fact she was not staging a protest outside the facility.
Vaughan-Spruce has since confirmed that she was not within the buffer zone as an act of protest but merely to pray, arguing: “This is the third time I have been treated like a criminal for peacefully, silently, and imperceptibly praying for women who are likely facing one of the worst days of their lives.”
“The UK government urgently needs to clarify that silent thoughts can never be illegal – even if those thoughts are in disagreement with the views of the State,” she added.
Britain made it a crime to undertake any action considered “interference” with access to abortions last year. As a result, merely attempting to “advise or persuade” someone from getting an abortion or to “inform about abortion services” is considered an offense in the UK capable of landing someone up to six months in prison, according Clause 9 of the Public Order Bill.

There has been a major increase in the number of Americans who agree that “Because things haven gotten so far off track, true American patriots may have to resort to violence in order to save our country” – with a sharper rise among Democrats and Independents than Republicans.
While only 15 percent of Americans agreed political violence may be necessary in 2021, the figure has risen to 23 percent as of 2023.
This sentiment is highest among Republicans, having risen from 28 percent to 33 percent, but the rise has been more significant among Democrats, almost doubling from seven percent to 13 percent. Independents have also seen a sharper rise, from 13 percent to 22 percent.
Similar changes can be observed when examining Americans’ religious and ethnic backgrounds. The feeling that political violence may be necessary is greatest among white evangelicals and mainline Protestants, having risen from 24 and 18 percent to 31 and 25 percent, respectively – but there has been a more pronounced rise among black Protestants, from 12 percent to 24 percent.
Hispanic Catholics are actually slightly more likely to believe political violence is necessary than white Catholics, at 21 percent versus 20 percent (up from 17 and 16 percent in 2021.)
People who describe themselves are religiously unaffiliated or religious but non-Christian have also seen steep rises, from 12 percent to 23 percent and from nine percent to 23 percent.
People in these groups were not broken down by ethnicity or by particular religions such as Islam, however.
