Biden’s VA to Expand IVF to Gays.

The Department of Veterans Affairs under Joe Biden is set to expand taxpayer-funded fertility treatments to unmarried persons, including homosexual couples and would-be single parents.

Secretary of Veterans Affairs Denis McDonough said “raising a family is a wonderful thing” and he was “proud that VA will soon help more Veterans have that opportunity.”

Previously, fertility treatments were only available to married, heterosexual couples. Now, qualified veterans will have access to in vitro fertilization (IVF) using donated sperm or eggs.

Senator Patty Murray (D-Wash.), who has helped to push the “inclusive” changes, said they were “an important step forward that will help more veterans start and grow their families — and it’s especially timely as IVF is under attack from the far right.”

Murray was likely referring to an Alabama court ruling that fertilized embryos qualify as children, leading some fertility treatments in the state to be paused amid fears disposing of unviable or unused embryos could be a crime.

Far from endorsing this, Republican leader Donald Trump urged lawmakers in the state to protect access to IVF. Legislators and the state governor quickly passed a law doing so.

Dem Resolution Declares Racism ‘Public Health Crisis.’

Senator Sherrod Brown (D-OH) has introduced a resolution designating racism as a “public health crisis.” The resolution, alleging health disparities and inequities across varying societal sectors, cites “microaggressions” and “police violence,” among other progressive obsessions.

Brown’s resolution notes that “Native Hawaiians and Pacific Islanders are 2.5-times more likely to die from diabetes than non-Hispanic White women,” and “Black, Hispanic or Latino, Asian American, Native Hawaiian, Pacific Islander, and Native American communities experienced disproportionately high rates of COVID–19 infection” – but does not explain how racism causes these maladies.

It also asserts, without supporting evidence, that “inequities in health outcomes are exacerbated for people of color who are LGBTQIA+,” and blasts the United States as a country with “a longstanding history and legacy of racism, mistreatment, and discrimination that has perpetuated health inequities for members of racial and ethnic minority groups.”

Brown — who recently hired a black man to say the ‘n-word’ for his latest audiobook — also suggests black people are regularly “confronted and threatened by armed citizens while performing everyday tasks, such as jogging in neighborhoods, driving, or playing in a park,” and that these encounters can cause “severe physical or psychological harm” even when they are not “fatal.”

Polls show Donald Trump is currently leading Joe Biden by nine points in Brown’s state.

England BANS Puberty Blockers for Kids.

The National Health Service (NHS) in England has ceased prescribing puberty blockers to children attending gender identity clinics. The socialized healthcare service’s decision follows an independent review of gender identity services for under-18s in 2020.

Government Health Minister Maria Caulfield said, “children’s safety and wellbeing is paramount, so we welcome this landmark decision by the NHS.”

“Ending the routine prescription of puberty blockers will help ensure that care is based on evidence, expert clinical opinion and is in the best interests of the child,” she added.

The review, led by Dr. Hilary Cass, followed a surge in children referred to the Gender Identity Development Service (GIDS), run by the Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation Trust, for puberty blockers. Referrals crossed 5,000 in 2021-22, a stark increase from fewer than 250 cases as recently as a decade ago.

GIDS, which has been mired in multiple scandals and has been sued for rushing patients into life-altering transgenderism procedures, will be terminating its services by the end of this month.

Children will reportedly still be able to receive puberty blockers as part of clinical research trials, however.

KASSAM: It’s Obvious They’ll Use Taylor Swift (& Others) To Juice Biden Rallies.

Raheem Kassam, Editor-in-Chief of The National Pulse, warned that Taylor Swift and other leftist celebrities will be deployed to try and turn out voters for Joe Biden, with tools such as TikTok and AI being used to increase their effectiveness.

“We saw the pictures of the Biden rally the other day. What were there, like, eight people in line?” Kassam said on War Room.

“There’s only one way these guys know how to juice those numbers, and that is with the celebrity factor,” he noted.

Kassam recalled Swift had pushed through a packed touring schedule around the Super Bowl despite being sick but is taking a break from touring in the run-up to November.

“Hmm, I wonder what could be happening then? I wonder who she might be going up on stage with every couple of days?” he said.

“Frankly, at this point, let’s hear her deny it,” Kassam continued, noting Swift involved herself in Super Tuesday despite having previously suggested she was sitting politics out.

“You think that the Democrat pollsters, with all their AI, with all their TikTok API tools, with all this, are not in the field, are not in multiple fields, asking the people who showed up on Super Tuesday: ‘Hey, were you influenced at all by Taylor Swift telling you [to vote]?’ And they’re running those numbers and they’re seeing where it applies on a county-by-county basis,” he warned.

Kassam concluded by urging conservatives to remember that “2016 got 2020’d,” and “we are inching closer to 2024 getting 2020’d as well” as a result of TikTok and other entities being used against them.

15-Year-Old Arrested After Brutal Beating of White Girl Outside High School.

St. Louis police arrested a 15-year-old female suspect in the savage beating of a Hazelwood East High School. The injured student, who has been referred to in earlier reports as ‘Kailee,’ is presently hospitalized in critical condition.

The alarming incident, captured on video, shows a black girl violently pounding the head of a white classmate against a concrete surface, causing what appears to be a traumatic brain injury. The footage rapidly spread across social media, sparking widespread outrage.

The Hazelwood School District responded to the horrific event, expressing deep distress over the harm inflicted upon children. However, it made no reference to the apparent racial aspect of the incident and even offered its “condolences” to the barbaric attacker.

“Bullying and fighting in the community is an issue for which we all need to take ownership and work towards a resolution for the sake of our children,” the statement said. “The Hazelwood School District offers our sincerest condolences to everyone involved, and will offer additional emotional support from our support and crisis team to those in need,” it continued.

In the wake of the ‘Black Lives Matter’ movement, open hostility and racism towards white people has become increasingly normalized, at times even supported by the current regime.

Race-Baiting Media Outlet Sold!

G/O Media has sold off left-leaning sports platform Deadspin to Lineup Publishing, leading to the dismissal of the entire editorial team, including Carron J. Phillips, who was controversially involved in defaming a young Chiefs fan in 2023. The announcement was made by G/O Media CEO Jim Spanfeller on Monday.

Deadspin gained negative notoriety when they falsely accused a young Chiefs fan of donning blackface when, in reality, the child was showing team spirit by wearing the Chiefs’ team colors of red and black.

Lineup Publishing initiated discussions about the purchase, planning to take a divergent approach to Deadspin’s sports coverage while being respectful towards its unique voice.

“The decision to sell was influenced by several key factors including the buyer’s editorial strategy, the challenging competition in sports journalism, and a valuation that offered a considerable profit from our initial buying price,” stated Spanfeller in a memo.

This transaction is not the first asset divestiture made by G/O Media in its recent attempt to enhance returns for investors. The company underwent significant restructuring in November last year, and later sold another of its holdings, Jezebel, to Paste Magazine. It also offloaded Lifehacker to Ziff Davis last March, resulting in 13 staff members losing their jobs in June.

In February, Raul and Shannon Armenta, the parents of the young Chiefs fan featured in Deadspin’s ‘blackface’ article, sued the publication. Some have speculated the lawsuit was in part responsible for the sale.

Deadspin is the latest in a litany of once-popular news websites that have ceased operations. In January, Sports Illustrated laid off its entire staff. Two weeks ago it was announced that Vice Media intended to cease publishing on Vice.com and laid off hundreds of employees.

Far-Left Irish Govt Holds Referendum on Stripping Motherhood and Traditional Family from Constitution.

Ireland’s far-left government is holding a referendum on changing the Irish constitution, seeking to remove amendments granting primacy to the traditional family and the importance of motherhood.

Currently, Ireland’s constitution notes that “the State recognises that by her life within the home, woman gives to the State a support without which the common good cannot be achieved,” and that “[t]he State shall, therefore, endeavour to ensure that mothers shall not be obliged by economic necessity to engage in labour to the neglect of their duties in the home.”

Irish voters will be asked to delete this language from their constitution entirely amidst claims it reinforces “patriarchal” ideas around women’s place “in the home.” Its defenders argue it merely recognizes the value of stay-at-home mothers and obliges the government to ensure mothers who enter the workforce do so only as a matter of choice.

Voters will also be asked to change an amendment that “recognises the Family as the natural primary and fundamental unit group of Society, and as a moral institution possessing inalienable and imprescriptible rights, antecedent and superior to all positive law.”

This amendment also obliges the government “to guard with special care the institution of Marriage, on which the Family is founded, and to protect it against attack.”

Voters are being asked to change this language to state that families are “founded on marriage or on other durable relationships,” such as homosexual unions.

Senior lawmakers have warned the change could be used to increase chain migration by strengthening the right of migrants to import relatives through so-called “family reunification.”

Since its ratification in 1937, when Catholic, socially conservative values ran strong in Ireland, the Irish constitution has seen significant changes, departing from principles rooted in the Catholic Church to embrace abortion, gay marriage, and other progressive priorities.

Gamers Can Now Play As A Woman In Popular Video Game ‘MLB The Show.’

In a significant first, Major League Baseball (MLB) video game “MLB The Show” will feature women players in its upcoming 2024 edition, even though women do not play in the MLB. Sony San Diego Studio, the game’s developers, revealed that MLB The Show 24 will offer the opportunity to create and control female characters in a newly revamped career mode titled “Road to the Show: Women Pave Their Way.”

The popular baseball game, expected to release on March 19, simulates the journey of a female player’s rise from minor to major league baseball. Game developers say the female player career narrative will focus on the unique challenges they encounter. In the real world, Major League Baseball only allows men to play professionally for the league. Women have traditionally played in collegiate and semi-professional softball leagues instead of playing baseball.

This ‘progressive’ addition to MLB The Show sees it aligning itself with other well-known sports video game franchises like FIFA (now EA Sports FC) and NBA 2K, which have opted to include women. The latter two games have come under fire for their decision, as women have their own professional soccer and basketball leagues in the real world.

Veronica Alvarez, manager of the USA. Baseball Women’s National Team — and a former national team player — believes this shift could confront stereotypical beliefs about gender in sports. However, Sony and MLB The Show have also come under criticism for the move. Fans of the game have said that including women makes the play more unrealistic. Others criticized Sony for caving to ‘woke’ politics.

‘On the Inside, I Am a Lesbian’ – Soldiers Change Gender to Get Better Pay.

Male soldiers in Spain have reportedly begun changing their gender, aiming to earn benefits exclusive to females. These benefits include higher pay and better sleeping quarters, with males seeking to exploit a 2023 law on “self-identification” to obtain them.

Forty-one males in Spain’s Ceuta, an autonomous exclave on the coast of North Africa, have reclassified as female. However, few of these individuals have even altered their names, and most have retained their male physical traits. Army Corporal Roberto Perdigones explained: “On the outside, I feel like a heterosexual man, but on the inside, I am a lesbian, and it is the latter that counts.” He added that after changing his gender, his pension and salary have increased “to compensate for inequality,” and he has a private room in the barracks.

The Spanish legislation, adopted on December 22, 2022, under the far-left Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez, permits individuals aged 14 and over to change their gender without psychological or medical assessments. Those between 14 and 16 require parental or guardian consent, and those aged 12 to 13 also require judicial approval.

Doritos Drops Trans Ambassador With Pedo Posts Following Backlash.

Doritos has dropped ‘Samantha Hudson,’ born Iván González Ranedo, as a brand ambassador after public outcry over the transgender influencer’s history of pedophilic online posts resulted in the hashtag #BoycottDoritos being shared widely on X.

Doritos, produced by PepsiCo subsidiary Frito-Lay, faced fierce criticism for partnering with Hudson in Spain. He was not only a far-left activist, having said he seeks “the destruction and annihilation of the traditional family,” but had a disturbing history of lewd posts about pre-teen children.

Writing in Spanish, Hudson declared he wanted to “thuggish” or “depraved” things to a 12-year-old in one of the posts. In another, he wrote about “screaming that I’m a nymphomaniac in front of a super beautiful 8-year-old girl” in the middle of the street “in panties.”

“We recently created a content series with Samantha Hudson, a local influencer. After the campaign started, we were made aware of Samantha’s deleted Tweets from around 2015,” Doritos Spain said in a statement on the terminated partnership.

“We have ended the relationship and stopped all related campaign activity due to the comments. We strongly condemn words or actions that promote violence or sexism of any kind,” they added.
