So-Called Moderate Governor Candidate Wants More Trans Books in Elementary Schools

Iowa Democratic gubernatorial nominee Rob Sand said he would oppose efforts to restrict books about homosexuality and transgenderism geared toward children.

Kailee Coleman, a social media influencer, said in an interview with Sand — who currently serves as Iowa state auditor — that she is a “banned book children’s author” and asked if he would allow further “book bans” in the state.

“If they try to do any more book bans, I’m going to veto them. My pledge is that I’m going to veto culture war bills,” Sand responded.

“I think that’s one of them. I want the legislature to be focused on issues that impact 100 percent of Iowans.”

The interview with Coleman and Sand was originally posted on TikTok and shared Thursday on X by Iowa First Media.

Coleman also asked Sand about the “changes” he would make as governor “to ensure our transgender and nonbinary neighbors feel safe and valued in Iowa.”

Radical Virginia Governor Abigail Spanberger Quietly REVERSES Rules Put in Place by Her Predecessor Banning Biological Males in Girls’ Sports

Virginia Governor Abigail Spanberger is quietly undoing all of the rules created by her Republican predecessor Glen Youngkin, regarding biological males competing in girls’ sports.

Virginia voters were warned that this would happen. Spanberger ran as a sort of middle-of-the-road candidate, but the minute she got into office, she revealed herself to be a creature of the far left.

This is a metaphor for the entire Democrat Party. The instant they regain any sort of power, they will pick up right where they left off in the fall of 2024.

Spanberger sparks outrage after sneakily ending Youngkin-era women’s sports protections

Critics, including parents of athletes, expressed outrage Friday after Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger’s administration quietly shut down a rulemaking process that would have required school sports to be divided by sex.

The move to end protections for scholastic sports based on sex is the latest development in the debate over whether biological males who identify as transgender should compete in girls’ sports.

“My jaw dropped when I saw the news,” former Del. Kim Taylor, R-Petersburg, told Fox News Digital on Friday. “As a mom of a daughter, I’m furious that protecting the privacy, safety, and opportunities of Virginia’s girls has somehow become controversial.”

“Governor Spanberger had a chance to stand up for women and girls, and instead she turned her back. Our daughters should never be asked to sacrifice their privacy or a fair playing field for someone else’s political agenda.”

Taylor focused on maternal and children’s issues during her time in Richmond and was the target of an assassination threat during her unsuccessful re-election bid last year.

Del. Wren Williams, R-Stuart, called the move “classic Spanberger.”

Doctor Punished with $28,000 Fine for Refusing to Hurt Teen

The Christian Institute is revealing the newest atrocity from the transgender agenda: Officials in Canada have fined a Christian physician $28,000 when he refused to harm a teenage boy by giving him the puberty blocker Lupron.

The doctor’s beliefs are that God made people male and female.

However, the British Columbia Human Rights Tribunal rejects the scientific fact that males cannot become female or vice versa, and claimed the puberty blockers are “not medication for gender reassignment” because the drug prevents puberty rather than inducing physical characteristics of the opposite sex.

The doctor, in his records, said, “I noticed that the injection is for gender re-assignment as patient is already in the waiting room with (her) mother. I called mother into the room and explained to her that I would not be able to give the injection. Based on my religious belief and cultural background.”

A complaint followed and the tribunal confessed it “corrected” the doctor’s notes to “properly reflect Child Q’s gender.”

The doctor was found, the institute reported, to have caused, “injury to dignity, feelings and self-respect” of the gender-confused 14-year-old boy.

The Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms, a Canadian civil liberties group, stated: “Doctors should not be required to personally participate in medical treatment that genuinely violates their conscience or religious beliefs especially where reasonable alternatives are available to patients.”

And Canadian columnist Amy Hamm wrote in The National Post: “The message this sends to all health-care providers in B.C. is clear: provide trans health care to minors – or suffer the consequences.”

A report at Lifesitenews said, “Dr. Henry Ajaero, who has run a family practice in Delta since 2014, was ordered to pay the compensation in a Sept. 1 B.C. Human Rights decision.”

The teen at the center of the case began identifying as transgender in 2020, and Ajaero referred him to the B.C. Gender Clinic, where the teen was prescribed a puberty blocker to be injected every three to four weeks. Although the drug can be injected at home, the family requested that Ajaero do it, but he declined when he discovered what it was. He had been the teen’s doctor for about four years, the report explained.

Massachusetts Governor Defends State Taking Catholic Couple’s Daughter Away After They Refused to Call Her a Boy

Democrat Massachusetts Gov. Maura Healey is defending the Department of Children and Families after Catholic parents accused the state of seizing their teenage daughter because they would not refer to her as a boy.

Healey told reporters the removal had nothing to do with gender, but the family’s lawyer says that is not true.

Joseph and Arlene Kutzko of Southborough say they have not spoken to their daughter, Sophie, since late 2024.

The child was 15 when DCF took her, and she is now 17.

The couple claims that Algonquin Regional High School began using a male name and pronouns for their daughter without telling them.

They have said that a school counselor reported the family after they refused, on Catholic and scientific grounds, to treat the girl as a boy.

“They exposed our daughter to teachings on LGBTQ and topics that conflict with our Catholic beliefs about human dignity, creation as male and female in Catholic teaching,” Joseph Kutzko said on the Lighthouse Faith podcast.

Massachusetts law allows schools to use a student’s chosen name and pronouns without notifying parents, a practice that has survived federal court challenges in other cases.

The parents say DCF has housed Sophie in a boys’ dormitory, put her on birth control and psychiatric drugs, and kept her from Sunday Mass.

A permanent restraining order bars the parents and an older brother from contact.

Attorney Vernadette Broyles of the Child and Parental Rights Campaign says the state is now seeking court permission to give the girl high-dose testosterone. A judge temporarily blocked that treatment. The next hearing is October 29.

Healey was asked about the case after an event in Boston this week.

“Let me be clear about the facts in that matter,” she said, according to a Boston Herald report. “First of all, DCF did not remove the child because of a health issue or a gender-affirming care issue. DCF removed the child after there were criminal charges filed against the parents, including the father. As you know, DCF is responsible for the care and well-being of kids, and that’s what happened in this instance.”

Healey added that the matter is “currently a subject of criminal prosecution right now against the parents,” then declined further comment while insisting the child “was not removed because of a gender-affirming care issue.”

CAUGHT ON TAPE: Talarico’s Own Church Minister Says His Sudden “Moderation” Is A Con – “Once He Gets Elected, He’ll Change His Tune Back to Where He Was”

An undercover video obtained by The Daily Wire has blown a hole in Texas Democrat James Talarico’s latest campaign makeover.

Rev. Babs Miller, the “Minister to the Parish” at Talarico’s longtime Austin congregation, St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church, was recorded telling an undercover journalist that the Senate candidate’s new talking points on transgender ideology are political theater, and that the old Talarico will be back the minute the votes are counted.

“I can guarantee you that once he gets elected, he’ll change his tune back to where he was,” Miller said.

That is not a Republican talking point. That is Talarico’s own minister.

Miller did not stop there. When the journalist noted that Republicans were hammering Talarico over his infamous “God is non-binary” line, she answered, “Duh.” She then complained that Talarico is “getting some advice that I don’t think he should be following.”

“That’s what his campaign has convinced him of,” Miller said. “The Democratic Party is backing off on their stances on trans and all of this, and so his staff is encouraging him to kind of do the same thing, just for the next 50 weeks, whatever days.”

Then the tell: “I think it’s bad advice personally, but if it helps him win, okay…”

Christian teachers fired in Canada over beliefs now face losing their licences

Two Ontario teachers who say they were fired after refusing to compromise on their Christian beliefs are facing another professional battle, this time, one that could cost them their teaching certificates altogether.

I first interviewed Matthew Alexander in 2023, after he and his wife, Nicole, were suspended from their teaching positions in different schools. Matthew had spent 24 years in education without disciplinary issues and had held leadership positions in schools. Nicole, who also had an unblemished record, was teaching kindergarten.

According to Matthew, after their son, Josh Alexander, made headlines for taking a stand against biological males accessing female washrooms at his high school, he and his wife appeared to become targets despite neither of them teaching at their son’s school.

Matthew says the board raised concerns about his association with Josh, the Christian youth organization Save Canada and even Christian pastors he had been photographed with. Nicole, meanwhile, was suspended after quietly removing a Pride flag someone had placed on her kindergarten classroom door.

The couple says they were ultimately given an ultimatum: agree to comply with the board’s requirement that they “celebrate and affirm LGBTQ issues in the classroom” or lose their jobs.

The Renfrew County District School Board later terminated the couple on October 26, 2023. “We had never discriminated against anybody, always had warm, welcoming classrooms,” Matthew told me. “But somehow if we won’t celebrate, we’re not allowed, not allowed to teach.”

Now, the Alexanders are facing an investigation by the Ontario College of Teachers, the regulatory body responsible for their professional teaching certificates.

Matthew said the implications could extend far beyond simply losing the ability to return to the classroom.

“The ramifications are broad, wide and very serious,” he said, warning that an adverse professional ruling could carry significant financial consequences and affect future licensing opportunities.

The couple has joined forces with the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms, which is assisting with their legal defence through crowdfunding efforts as they continue their fight.

Alberta woman forced into human rights hearing over anti-Pride flyer

An Alberta woman will face an eight-day human rights hearing over a flyer she distributed opposing a rainbow crosswalk and raising concerns about transgender ideology.

The Alberta Human Rights Tribunal hearing against Westlock resident Benita Pedersen begins Monday.

Pedersen distributed the two-sided flyer in June 2023 after learning that the Town of Westlock planned to paint a rainbow crosswalk incorporating colours from the transgender pride flag.

The front urged residents to “Say NO to the rainbow crosswalk in Westlock” and provided instructions for contacting municipal officials and attending a council meeting.

The reverse side contained stronger language about transgender ideology, children and medical transitions. It described certain treatments as “chemical castration and genital mutilation” and claimed that children could be left “infertile and unable to reproduce.”

The flyer alleged that “the transgender agenda is part of the de-population agenda, which is part of Agenda 2030.”

SHOCK: Devout Catholic Parents in Massachusetts Say State Took Custody of Their Teen Daughter After they Refused to Affirm Her as a Boy

A devout Catholic couple in Massachusetts said the state took custody of their teenage daughter after they refused to affirm her as a boy.

Joseph and Arlene Kutzko said they have been fighting in court for nearly two years after their minor teen daughter Sophie was taken away from them because they would not recognize the child as a boy.

In December 2024, the Department of Children and Families (DCF) took Sophie away and is now beginning the process of medically transitioning her with testosterone.

The distraught parents alleged that the counselors at Algonquin Regional High School secretly began the process of socially transitioning their daughter without their permission.

A restraining order was lodged against the parents with allegations of abuse.

The DCF put the teen girl in a boys’ dormitory, put her on psychiatric drugs, and gave her birth control.

The couple has not spoken to their daughter Sophie, who is now 17 years old, in nearly two years.

Transgender Matrix Director Declares Harry Potter Fans Complicit in ‘Trans Genocide’ and Calls J.K. Rowling a ‘Literal Nazi’

Lilly Wachowski, the transgender co-director of The Matrix, has decided that millions of people who still enjoy Harry Potter are aiding a “trans genocide.”

In an interview with Variety published this week, the biological male filmmaker said J.K. Rowling “funds trans genocide, full stop.”

“So, if you support Harry Potter, you’re supporting trans genocide.”

Wachowski claimed that money spent on books, movies, merch, theme parks, or the upcoming HBO series eventually flows to Rowling and allows her to fund “anti-trans legislation all over the world.”

The filmmaker said, “In the same way that if you are against Elon Musk, you boycott or don’t buy Tesla, and if you’re against global warming/climate change, you try not to buy as much gas, you try to mitigate your use of these products. It’s simple math.”

“Your enjoyment of these shows, and continued support of these shows, is supporting my eradication,” Wachowski said.

Wachowski also claimed Elon Musk is a “literal” Nazi. He repeated the long-running bogus claim that Musk performed “a full-blown Sieg Heil on a national stage” at a 2025 event celebrating President Donald Trump’s second inauguration.

Whacko Rep. Al Green Demands Free Transgender Treatments for Illegal Aliens – Says Transgender Illegals Face “Hazardous Conditions”

Rep. Al Green on Thursday delivered a press conference with LGBTQ groups in Houston, Texas, where he demanded that the Department of Homeland Security provide hormone treatments and transgender procedures to illegal aliens. 

Greene joined forces with the Houston LGBTQ+ Political Caucus and the Houston-based Montrose Center “to address the maltreatment of transgender immigrants in ICE detention facilities,” his office announced in a press release.

“We cannot allow people to be punished because of who they are. I have had a history of experiencing this type of punishment simply because the color of my skin,” Greene said to kick off the press conference.

At one point in the press conference, Greene read a letter to DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin, claiming that illegal aliens in ICE detention facilities are facing “hazardous conditions” because of the lack of gender-affirming care.

He further warned that the lack of “specialized medical care” for so-called transgender illegal aliens “can cause physical and mental health complications” and that “transgender women (men) in detention facilities have been placed either with men or in solitary confinement.”

Daron Perez, who serves as the TransWellness Program Coordinator at The Montrose Center, also spoke and said that one individual, described as a “a transgender Latino community leader,” was denied access to testosterone treatments while in ICE custody.

“Transgender immigrants should not have to wonder: Will I receive my hormones? Will my identity be respected? Will I be safe? Will anybody care? Being detained should never mean losing your dignity, your safety, or access to necessary medical care,” he said.
