Head of major NJ LGBTQ group resigns after being charged with assaulting foster son

The director of New Jersey’s most prominent LGBTQ rights group resigned after he was accused of pulling a foster child out of bed and slapping him repeatedly across the face.

Christian Fuscarino, who has ties to top Dems including Gov. Phil Murphy and Gov.-elect Mikie Sherrill, was charged with child endangerment and simple assault for an alleged attack that was caught on camera last month.

“Garden State Equality takes allegations against our staff seriously and we oppose violence of any kind. When we learned about the charge against Mr. Fuscarino, we immediately placed him on leave,” the organization said in a statement.

He later resigned from the group — which he has led since 2016 — and claimed in a statement that the incident was a “private family moment.”

Fuscarino was allegedly caught on security camera yanking the boy out of bed at a home in Neptune City on Nov. 9, according to court records obtained by NJ.com.

“Hate Speech Disguised as Activism”: Controversy Erupts Over Statements Against White Men

A new controversy has erupted in the United States after an activist, in an interview recorded in public, openly celebrated the death of conservative commentator Charlie Kirk and made a series of radical statements against white men, whom she described as “the greatest threat” to human well-being.

In the recording, which quickly went viral, the interviewee not only expressed joy over the death of a conservative leader but also justified her stance based on “personal experiences,” making it clear that she does not rely on data, studies, or concrete evidence. Her aggressive rhetoric has sparked outrage among Republican circles and analysts who consider this type of identity-based discourse extremely dangerous.

In her statements, the woman asserted that “white men are literally the greatest threat to humans being fed, housed, clothed, and having their basic needs met,” claiming that her judgment comes solely from what she “knows” rather than verifiable data. When asked to provide examples or statistics to support her claims, she replied: “I’m not a data analyst, I just know the experiences.”

The conversation grew even tenser when the activist directly held the reporter accountable—simply for being a white man—implying that he has supposed “privilege” just by being present conducting the interview. She tried to reinforce this argument by pointing to the presence of homeless individuals nearby, claiming that “none of them” looked like the reporter, although he immediately clarified that white people also experience homelessness.

When the reporter attempted to steer the discussion into a rational direction by asking, “What do you think we should do about white men?”, the interviewee evaded a concrete answer but made it clear that, in her view, the mere existence of white people in public positions constitutes a form of oppression.

The most serious point, however, was her initial statement: “F*** Charlie Kirk… I’m glad that guy is dead.” For Republican analysts and free speech advocates, this kind of rhetoric not only normalizes hate speech but also seeks to dehumanize a specific group of people based on race, justifying symbolic and social violence under the guise of “activism.”

Trans Activist Named Cassidy Mal Lyss (“Malice”) Arrested on 2nd Arson Charge – Previously Asked if He Could Begin Burning Churches

A trans-identifying man with an extensive arrest history was charged arson after setting fire to his own apartment during a standoff with police following a robbery, according to news reports.

This gem, who was charged with setting fire to his mother’s apartment in 2022, while the woman was inside, also once asked on a Facebook post, “May I start burning Churches yet?” independent journalist Andy Ngo reported.

Nathan Herbert Click — who now goes by the name Cassidy Mal Lyss (get it, “malice?”) — was arrested on the morning of Nov. 10 in Stillwater, Oklahoma, after a report of robbery, according to KOKH-TV in Oklahoma City.

Lyss, who had made prior threats to burn down the building, barricaded himself inside his apartment. Before a special unit could come to fetch him, officers said that they observed smoke coming out of it.

Police took him into custody by breaking into a bedroom window and getting him to safety. The Stillwater Fire Department put out the fire before anything more than smoke could spread to adjacent units, which had been evacuated.

He’s now charged with first-degree arson, assault and battery, first-degree robbery, obstructing an officer and threatening to perform an act of violence.

Most news outlets weren’t going to report what would have, in days of yore, been toward the front of the story: The individual at the center of this was “[a] 35-year-old transgender activist and sex worker,” as Ngo put it.’

He was “active on social media,” Ngo wrote, “posting photos of himself, images of the trans flag and promoting his sex work on OnlyFans and other adult websites.”

He also had a history of disturbing behavior.

Climate Activists Who Vandalized Stonehenge Acquitted And Set Free

Within a progressive controlled nation, who gets punished by the law is greatly dependent on their political and ethnic affiliations.  Left leaning groups (and people like migrants who are useful to left leaning groups) enjoy a separate set of legal standards compared to people who oppose leftist ideology.  This has become a clear trend within the UK in recent years.

This two tier legal system helps the encourage future crimes by leftists and their allies while the hammer is brought down on conservatives and patriots to ensure they are fearful of stepping out of line in the slightest.  

This double standard is obvious once again in the recent acquittal of three Just Stop Oil activists who made headlines after they spraying down the historic site of Stonehenge with a mixture of powder and orange dye.  The dye cost around $1000 to clean but luckily did not leave lasting damage.  The stunt was allegedly designed to draw attention to JSO’s climate change agenda.

The activists, Rajan Naidu, Niamh Lynch and Luke Watson have been found not guilty this week of criminal damage and causing a public nuisance.  The suspects cited human rights law in their defense, arguing that they had a “reasonable excuse”, and they they are protected under Articles 10 and 11 of the European Convention on Human Rights to freedom of speech and freedom to protest.

The judge emphasized that democratic protest rights can sometimes render otherwise unlawful actions lawful, even if disruptive.  In other words, suspects who commit a clear crime (such as vandalizing an ancient heritage site) will not be punished as long as they support causes that the current government agrees with.  UK patriots, on the other hand, will still get years in prison for posting memes on social media that are critical of mass immigration.

Just Stop Oil’s insanity was rampant across Europe over the course of the last few year until the group disbanded on the grounds that they had been “victorious” in achieving their primary goal (did they beat climate change?).  However, it is more likely they disbanded because of rising public anger over their disruptive tactics.

How Ukrainian Courts Are Weaponizing Lawfare Against Anti-War Voices

The NATO-backed war in Ukraine is portrayed in the West as an ideological war between the democratic Ukraine and the authoritarian Russia. In reality, Ukraine is far from a liberal democratic paradise. Ukraine has nationalized the news media and banned opposing political parties, moves which President Donald Trump has criticized. With elections canceled and weapons being sent to Ukraine, including to neo-Nazi elements in the armed forces, Ukraine is devoid of actual democratic norms. However, most troubling of all is Ukraine’s treatment of activists who oppose a forever war in Russia.

In June of 2024, I reported on how Bogdan Syrotiuk, a Trotskyist and opponent of the Russia-Ukraine war, was jailed for “committing treason” over his writings for the World Socialist Web Site (WSWS). Syrotiuk is not a pro-Russian sycophant; as Matt Taibbi reported, the chairman of the Socialist Equality Party, which published the WSWS, opposed the Russian invasion and described the publication as “bitter enemies of the Putin government”. Syrotiuk now faces a sentence of 15 years to life in prison with the courts repeatedly extending his pre-trial detention without evidence or bail. These violations of any semblance of due process were so blatant that the European Court of Human Rights has now accepted his case.

The European Court accepted the case on the grounds that the Ukrainian government has restricted his right to liberty. This is a violation of Article 5 of the European Convention of Human Rights, which Ukraine has partially suspended under martial law. Ironically, the Ukrainian court cited the Iliykov v Bulgaria which forbade countries from denying bail or holding people in pre-trial detention based solely on suspicion. The Ukrainian court completely reversed the meaning of the ruling by citing the case as precedent for its actions. The court’s shady proceedings call into question the very legitimacy of the Ukrainian court system.

Further evidence of Ukraine’s judicial illegitimacy lies in its procedural irregularity. For example, in numerous rulings, the court employed similar language in response to the requests of prosecutions from the Ukrainian Security Service (SBU). In fact, large portions were blatantly copied and pasted, suggesting that the courts are merely a rubber stamp for the SBU. Furthermore, in October of 2025, the court ruled against a motion to dismiss the judge for bias. These harsh measures reveal an underlying authoritarian system that punishes dissidents for “thought crimes”.

Syrotiuk has faced horrible conditions in an overcrowded prison in Nikolaev for over a year. Syrotiuk faces severe dental problems exacerbated by the prison’s low-quality food and poor hygiene. Additionally, the Ukrainian government has repeatedly postponed a dental appointment outside the prison. Poor prison conditions and rampant lawfare are designed to discourage dissent. Through measures like these, the Ukrainian government is purposely creating a culture of fear to control the public.

Bogdan Syrotiuk’s story is similar to those of other activists like Gonzalo Lira and Yurii Sheliazhenko. Both Lira and Sheliazhenko were arrested by the SBU for allegedly justifying the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Like Syrotiuk, Lira also faced medical neglect. Shortly before his death in prison, Lira wrote a letter in which he stated “I have had double pneumonia (both lungs) as well as pneumothorax and a very severe case of edema (swelling of the body). All this started in mid-October, but was ignored by the prison.”

Regardless of political persuasion, the right to freedom of speech should be inalienable. Bogdan Syrotiuk’s fight against Ukrainian lawfare and harsh prison conditions is ignored by mainstream media to keep Americans and Europeans supportive of a war that does not serve their interests. Citizens of the West must demand accountability from their governments about the true nature of nations which they are financially supporting. The damning examples of Ukraine using lawfare against political dissidents prove that the Russia-Ukraine war is about geopolitical hegemony rather than a genuine struggle for democracy.

Trans activist who sued female beauty spa for refusing to give her bikini wax is now WANTED by police

A trans woman with a penis who gained notoriety after suing beauty spas that refused to bikini wax has had a warrant issued for her arrest. 

Police in Alberta, Canada, are searching for Jessica Yaniv, also known as Jessica Simpson, in relation to a criminal harassment charge according to Western Standard.

The outlet spoke with the complainant who said they are trying to confirm if the search extends to British Columbia, where Yaniv is from.  

No court records have yet been released in relation to the case and Calgary Police have yet to comment, so further details of the harassment have not been disclosed. 

In Canada warrants can be forced across different provinces if they are filed under a national database or authorized under a interprovincial cooperation agreement. 

Yaniv first made headlines in 2018 after filing suit against a number of salons after they refused to wax her.

She claimed they had actively discriminated against her for her gender identity and male genitalia. The cases were all later dismissed. 

In 2019 she was also hit with accusations that she had engaged in sexually inappropriate communications with a minor.

One woman, Jessica Rumpel, previously told the Daily Mail that Yaniv had sent her her sexually inappropriate messages when she was just 14.

Those are said to have included questions about whether it would be ok for her to change in front of another woman, and how to go about making that happen. 

Rumpel went public with her claims after others posted about similar alleged incidents on social media. 

Yaniv went on to say that she doesn’t know Rumpel and suggested someone posing as her may have contacted her.

Rumpel however shared Twitter messages from 2014 that appear to have come from Yaniv’s current verified account. 

‘I feel [Yaniv] took advantage of me,’ Rumpel told the Daily Mai back in 2019. ‘I felt [Yaniv] kinda took my kindness for granted.’ 

She said that at the time Yaniv sent the message she was unphased and only later realized the behavior was predatory. 

In 2019 she was also charged with possession of a prohibited weapon after she waving a taser while on a livestream, she received a conditional discharge.

Stephen Miller flees Virginia mansion after menacing messages left for him

The White House‘s deputy chief of staff and so-called ‘immigration architect’ Stephen Miller is putting his Arlington home up for sale after it was caught in the crosshairs of activists.

The custom-built home in a quiet neighborhood in Arlington that ’embraces a refined Southern California aesthetic’ is priced at $3.75 million – sold in 2023 for $2.875 million, records say.

Miller has emerged as one of the most controversial figures in US immigration policy, chiefly for the hardline proposals he’s been pushing. 

Among his major policy goals are mass arrests and deportations—for example, setting a new ICE target of around 3,000 arrests per day in recent months.

He’s also been a strong advocate for expanding travel bans and raising the vetting standards for who can enter the US, often targeting Muslim-majority countries.

On at least two occasions this year—including in mid‑September—activists have written chalk messages of protest in front of his Arlington, Virginia home and in a nearby park. 

Messages included phrases like ‘Stephen Miller is destroying democracy,’ ‘stop the kidnapping,’ ‘no white nationalism,’ ‘we [love] immigrants,’and ‘trans rights are human rights,’ according to ARLnow.com

A few days after Charlie Kirk was assassinated in Utah, chalk messages began appearing, prompting Katie Miller — a former communications official who is also Stephen Miller’s wife— to share a defiant message on social media.

‘To the ‘Tolerant Left’ who spent their day trying to intimidate us in the house where we have three young children: We will not back down. We will not cower in fear. We will double down. Always, For Charlie,’ she posted on X in mid-September, alongside the post was a video showing several of the messages being washed away with a garden hose.

While speaking on The Sean Hannity Show, Stephen Miller and Hannity claimed the messages constituted ‘terroristic threats.’

PROTECT WOMEN: Out-of-Control Trans Activists Vandalize Europe’s Largest Feminist Conference Happening in the UK

Trans individuals want to ‘teach’ women what they are.

In following a new trend, Trans activists vandalized the venue of Europe’s largest feminist conference, taking place in Brighton, in the UK.

Purple paint was sprayed on the façade and windows were smashed in the runup to this weekend’s FiLiA conference.

There’s no need for us to wonder who did this, since Bash Back, a trans activist group, has proudly claimed credit for the vandalism and even posted a video showing masked figures vandalizing the venue.

Around 2,400 people will participate in the gender-critical charity’s conference.

Author JK Rowling, a champion for women’s rights against trans activism, retweeted a post by journalist Julie Bindel.

The Telegraph reported:

“Ms. Bindel, who is speaking at this year’s event, wrote on X: ‘Trans activists have smashed one of the large front windows of the Brighton Centre – the venue where 2500 feminists are meeting this weekend to talk about male violence, misogyny and the like. Why can’t EVERYONE see this movement for what it is?’”

Foreign Billionaire Pours Millions Into U.S. Politics to Push Radical Green Agenda

For more than a decade, British billionaire hedge-fund manager Christopher Hohn has quietly funneled hundreds of millions of dollars into American politics. 

Federal law strictly prohibits foreign nationals from directly or indirectly influencing U.S. elections, yet Hohn has become one of the most aggressive violators of that rule.

Through his London-based nonprofit, the Children’s Investment Fund Foundation (CIFF), Hohn poured more than $553 million into U.S. organizations between 2014 and 2023. 

These dollars didn’t go toward charity; instead, they went toward advancing radical left-wing policy campaigns: climate protests, anti-fossil-fuel litigation, and efforts to ban natural gas stoves. 

Much of this money flowed through the Arabella Advisors dark-money network, which bankrolls progressive activism nationwide.

CIFF’s ties raise even deeper concerns. The group has close connections to Communist China. 

Its CEO sits on the International Green Development Coalition, a program tied to China’s Belt and Road initiative. 

The coalition’s work is overseen by top officials in the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). 

In fact, Hohn’s foundation has even honored CCP figures with “Friendship Awards,” further signaling its alignment with Beijing’s agenda.

While Democrats in Washington turn a blind eye, a foreign billionaire with ties to the CCP has been allowed to bankroll groups that shape America’s energy policy. 

By funding climate litigation and pressure campaigns, Hohn’s foundation has worked to dismantle U.S. energy independence, leaving America weaker and more reliant on foreign adversaries.

Democrats rail against supposed “foreign interference” in U.S. elections, but they have no problem cashing checks from foreign billionaires who bankroll their policy goals. 

From California to Washington, D.C., progressive nonprofits fueled by CIFF money have radicalized debates on climate and social justice, all while operating under the radar with little oversight or regulation.

REVEALED: Undercover spy who infiltrated Swampy’s Newbury Pass eco-warriors is unmasked as paedophile who tried to have sex with children as young as six

The undercover spy who thwarted eco-warriors behind the Newbury Pass protest of the 1990s has been convicted of trying to have sex with children as young as six.

Special Branch hired a freelance agent to infiltrate a group of activists living in tunnels under the construction site and provide vital intelligence which allowed police to stealthily snatch them from the burrows.

For 30 years his identity has remained a secret.

But the Mail can unmask the spy as Edward Gratwick, who was yesterday convicted of 38 child sex offences.

The 68-year-old was arrested at Stansted Airport on March 7 while attempting to fly to Bucharest to sexually abuse a Romanian schoolgirl after making an arrangement with the child’s mother.

National Crime Agency officers swooped on the airport after receiving intelligence from foreign authorities just a few hours previously. Three children have now been safeguarded, the agency said.

Gratwick had discussed plans to abuse children in the UK and abroad with multiple individuals, some of whom were parents offering their daughters for sex.

He spoke with other paedophiles via encrypted messaging apps, offering to help supply with them children in exchange for money.

In these conversations, he boasted of having sex with a nine-year-old girl in the Dominican Republic.

Gratwick’s passport showed he travelled extensively around the world including to Sierra Leone, the Dominican Republic, Morrocco, around Europe, and the USA.

Investigators said they were investigating whether he had indeed already abused children abroad as he claimed.

Wayne Johns, head of child sexual abuse investigations at the NCA, said Gratwick’s chatlogs were the most depraved that his team of seasoned child abuse detectives had ever witnessed.

‘A dedicated team very experienced in their field had to examine these messages and for them to point out how horrendous they are is testament to the level of offending,’ he added.

When police searched Gratwick’s home in Mitcham, south London, they found 69ml of ‘date rape’ drug GBL, which is a central nervous system depressant, in a drawer of his fridge.

In messages he had discussed drugging children so they would not remember the abuse they suffered.

Detectives also discovered 1,364 indecent images of children on his devices.
