Alert: Olympic Committee Steps up to Protect Women, Bans Trans Athletes from Female Events

No man will grab an Olympic medal from a woman under a new policy unveiled Thursday by the International Olympic Committee.

Under the new policy, genetic testing will be required to ensure only women compete in women’s categories, according to The New York Times.

The decision will take effect with the 2028 Olympic Games in Los Angeles.

“As a former athlete, I passionately believe in the rights of all Olympians to take part in fair competition,” IOC president Kristy Coventry, a former gold medal Olympian, said in a statement posted on the IOC website.

“The policy that we have announced is based on science and has been led by medical experts. At the Olympic Games, even the smallest margins can be the difference between victory and defeat,” she said.

“So, it is absolutely clear that it would not be fair for biological males to compete in the female category. In addition, in some sports it would simply not be safe,” she said.

“Every athlete must be treated with dignity and respect, and athletes will need to be screened only once in their lifetime. There must be clear education around the process and counselling available, alongside expert medical advice,” she said.

WOKE AND STUPID: Maryland Democrats Push Bill That Would Require Tampons in Every Public Men’s Restroom

Democrats in Maryland have figured out a new way to waste everyone’s time and money. They want to require the placement of free tampons in all public men’s rooms.

This is another virtue signal from Democrats who just can’t stop falling all over themselves to appeal to the trans community. Who else would need a tampon in a men’s room?

This is just more proof that the Democrats learned absolutely nothing from the 2024 election. The voting public made their position on this kind of thing very clear. The Democrats just don’t care.

FOX News reports:

Maryland Dems mocked for prioritizing tampons in men’s bathrooms amid state deficit: ‘Nonsense’

Maryland Del. Kathy Szeliga, R-Baltimore County, is calling out Maryland Democrats for backing a bill that would stock tampons in men’s bathrooms in state-owned buildings — an idea she says is emblematic of Annapolis’ misplaced priorities.

Szeliga said that after she was made aware of HB 941, she took to the House floor to question which public buildings would be impacted. In particular, she wanted to know if the state’s professional sports facilities, such as where the Ravens and Orioles play, would be impacted. During her remarks, the GOP Maryland lawmaker also questioned language in the bill ordering “appropriately sized tampons” be placed in all public restrooms in all public buildings.

“What are appropriately sized tampons?” Szeliga asked, earning laughter from parts of the House. “I’ve never heard of such a thing. What do you consider appropriate?”

In response, Del. Ken Kerr, D-Fredrick County, said that the language “just means that tampons are offered, there’s no specific size.” Szeliga shot back, arguing that if that is the case, it should say so, and not talk about sizing.

Meanwhile, Szeliga then pivoted to inquire with Democrats about which public buildings would be impacted, with emphasis on the football stadium where the NFL franchise Baltimore Ravens play and the baseball stadium, Camden Yards, where the Baltimore Orioles play. According to Szeliga, both are owned by the Maryland Stadium Authority.

Portugal Bans Irreversible Sex Change Treatments for Minors and Restores Clinical Criteria in Gender Identity

The Portuguese Parliament has approved in first reading several bills introduced by the Social Democratic Party (PSD), the CDS-PP, and the sovereigntist CHEGA party that substantially modify the gender identity regulations in force since 2018.

The central measure establishes a strict prohibition on puberty blockers and hormonal treatments for any minor under 18 years of age, while requiring the reinstatement of mandatory clinical reports—prepared by psychologists and physicians—for any change in registered name and sex, thereby eliminating the pure self-determination allowed by the previous law.

This reform, driven by the center-right coalition and strongly supported by CHEGA, returns the legal framework to scientific and medical criteria similar to those of the 2011 legislation, prioritizing the protection of childhood against irreversible decisions.

According to the promoters, including CHEGA’s parliamentary leader Pedro Pinto, “changing sex before the age of 18 is inconceivable,” and the measure responds to consultations with parents’ associations and medical professionals, reinforcing the role of families in decisions of this magnitude.

The defenders of the law consider it a measure for the protection of childhood and the reinforcement of the role of families in this type of decisions.The 2018 law, which made Portugal one of Europe’s pioneering countries in allowing gender change by mere personal will without medical requirements, is partially repealed in its most controversial aspects.

Now, legal identity is once again based on clinical evidence and not solely on subjective self-determination. For minors, any hormonal intervention or puberty suppression is prohibited, thus avoiding treatments that, according to accumulated scientific evidence in several European countries, can cause permanent consequences in bone, cardiovascular, and psychological development.

This decision is set within a European context of growing prudence. Countries such as the United Kingdom, Sweden, and Finland have already restricted or suspended these protocols for minors following independent reviews that questioned their long-term safety and efficacy.

In Portugal, the parliamentary right—including the governing formation—has acted responsibly in the face of the gender ideology that for years imposed changes without deep debate or safeguards.

The approval, with 151 votes in favor and 79 against, marks a clear turning point in Portuguese politics and demonstrates that, when the best interests of the child are prioritized, reason and science prevail over ideological dogmas.

Transgender Illegal Alien Who Raped 14-Year-Old Boy in NYC Bodega Bathroom Gets Sweetheart Plea Deal, May Walk Free on April 27 Unless ICE Deports

In a case that highlights the danger and absurdity of sanctuary city and soft-on-crime policies in New York City, a 31-year-old transgender illegal alien from Colombia pleaded guilty Tuesday to raping a 14-year-old boy in a Manhattan bodega bathroom but will serve no additional jail time.

Nicol Alexandra Contreras-Suarez, a biological male who dresses up as a woman, has pleaded guilty to second-degree rape in Manhattan Supreme Court for the sexual assault of the boy inside the restroom of a bodega across the street from Thomas Jefferson Park in East Harlem last year.

According to the New York Post, Contreras-Suarez followed the 14-year-old victim into the bodega bathroom and raped him.

The boy was able to leave the bathroom afterward and flag down bystanders, who alerted police.

Contreras-Suarez was arrested the next day.

However, under the plea deal struck by the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office, Contreras-Suarez was promised a sentence of just six months in jail, time he has already served while awaiting trial.

The illegal alien rapist is scheduled to be sentenced on April 27, at which point he could be released unless federal immigration authorities take him into custody for deportation.

A spokesperson for the Manhattan DA’s Office confirmed the resolution was reached “in close consultation with the victim’s family” to spare the teenager from having to testify before a grand jury or at a full trial, according to the Post report.

The office added in a statement, “We expect the defendant to remain detained and be deported following sentencing, due to the felony conviction.”

ICE has a detainer in place for Contreras-Suarez and did not respond to The Post’s requests for comment on the plea outcome.

Contreras-Suarez illegally entered the United States in March 2023 and was released into the country by Customs and Border Protection, according to a Department of Homeland Security press release.

He later racked up warrants in Massachusetts for armed robbery, prostitution, and assault with a dangerous weapon.

Due to sanctuary policies in Massachusetts, the sexual predator was released and went on to commit the New York rape.

Should a neo-Nazi be allowed to ‘identify’ as Anne Frank?

In July 2023, German neo-Nazi Sven Liebich was convicted of ‘extreme-right incitement to hatred, defamation and insult’. He had been caught red-handed wearing a stormtrooper get-up. A ream of Nazi-esque social-media posts had been made under his name. Apparently, he had even distributed baseball bats inscribed with the phrase ‘deportation helper’.

Liebich’s crimes were grim enough, but it was his Princess Diaries-inspired transformation that brought him to international attention. In 2024, he showed up in court in lipstick, a floppy beach hat and a leopard-print blouse. He asked to be referred to not as Sven, but ‘Marla-Svenja’. He also declared himself to be female. Since Germany explicitly allows anyone to identify how they please under the 2024 Self-Determination Act, there was little that could be done to stop him. And so, Liebich’s name and legal sex were duly changed and he was ordered to report to Chemnitz women’s prison in August the following year.

It took many months for the penny to drop that maybe, just maybe, Liebich had been playing the system. Curiously, it wasn’t the fact that ‘Marla’ still had a whopping great moustache on ‘her’ face, nor his history of publicly harassing gay and trans individuals that seemed to wake up the authorities. No, the straw that broke the camel’s back was his request in November last year to change not only his gender again – this time from female to ‘diverse’ – but also his name… to ‘Anne Frank’.

According to LTO, a magazine specialising in legal affairs, the authorities in the district of Saalekreis in Saxony-Anhalt have now had enough of Liebich’s provocations. Towards the end of last year, they asked the courts to overturn his original request to change his gender. Judges will soon report back on whether the far-right fugitive might have ‘abused the system’ of gender self-ID. You think?

The sudden realisation that Liebich might not be a woman after all is too little, too late. Not least as this question is now purely academic. Liebich has long since gone AWOL. Authorities believe him to be hiding out in Russia – that famous haven of ‘trans rights’.

Linda McMahon Threatens to Pull San Jose State University’s Funding Over Title IX Violations

According to Campus Reform, “The U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights recently threatened to rescind funding from San Jose State University after becoming locked in a stalemate with the school over its Title IX violations.”

These violations were in regard to noncompliance regarding “transgender” athletes, otherwise known as Men in Women’s sports.

According to The Office For Civil Rights, “OCR concluded that SJSU’s policies allowing males to compete in women’s sports and access female-only facilities deny women equal educational opportunities and benefits,” the letter stated.

According to this department, San Jose State University caused Female athletes “significant harm.”

In addition, the release stated  the University policies have created “unfairness in competition, compromising safety, and denying women equal opportunities in athletics, including scholarships and playing time.”

The American public is overwhelmingly against Men in Female sports, but apparently, some schools continue to defy the public will and the Executive Orders of the Trump Administration.

The official from The Office for Civil Rights also stated in the press release that “This is unacceptable. We will not relent until SJSU is held to account for these abuses and commits to upholding Title IX to protect future athletes from the same indignities.”

President Trump and his administration have been consistent in opposing the Woke agenda and opposing the efforts to put biological men in women’s sports.

Also, according to Campus Reform, the Office was nice enough to offer a resolution to settle, but San Jose rejected the terms, which included restoring female athletes’ records and offering them apology letters, but the terms seem to have been rejected.

As a result of this school’s non-compliance with federal law, Secretary of Education Linda McMahon posted to X on March 11th that the university’s response was a “proactive refusal” to negotiate the proposed resolution agreement or address the Title IX concerns, concluding that “a voluntary agreement will not be reached and we are at an impasse.”

“The notice informed SJSU that the OCR will issue a Letter of Impending Enforcement Action within 10 calendar days if the university does not reach a compromise and agree to a resolution.”

Defying federal law is no small matter, especially in a matter of public safety such as this.

Possible consequences include termination of federal funding as well as referral to the DOJ.

Linda McMahon correctly argued, “protecting women’s sports is non-negotiable.”

McMahon gave the school ten days to end these practices of Men in Women’s sports.

These are all welcome measures to make sports safe and end unfair practices.

Senate Democrats Kill Trump-Backed Amendment to Ban Men from Women’s Sports – For the FOURTH Time

Senate Democrats once again blocked a common-sense Republican amendment that would have protected women’s and girls’ sports from biological males competing as transgender athletes.

On Saturday, the Senate voted 49-41 along strict party lines to kill the amendment to the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) America Act.

The measure needed 60 votes to advance and failed, marking the fourth time Democrats have shot down identical protections.

The amendment, known as the Protection for Women and Girls in Sports Act, was sponsored by Sens. Tommy Tuberville and Marsha Blackburn. It would have barred federally funded schools and programs from allowing biological males, those identifying as transgender women or girls, to compete in female sports categories.

Republicans introduced the amendment at the demand of President Donald Trump, who has made protecting women’s sports a top priority alongside the SAVE America Act’s core goal of requiring proof of citizenship and photo ID to vote.

Speaking on the Senate floor, Tuberville blasted the repeated Democratic obstruction.

“This is the fourth time that I’ve had this bill on the floor. I’ll continue to try until I’m gone,” Tuberville said. “Every time that we’ve voted on this, I have not got one single Democrat to vote for it.”

Tuberville continued, “How about the trophies and awards that are stolen from young girls and ladies that work all their life to win a game or a sport … and they lose to somebody that’s much more physical, bigger, stronger and faster?”

Blackburn called the situation “disgusting,” pointing to cases like swimmer Lia Thomas, a biological male who switched from the men’s team at the University of Pennsylvania to the women’s squad and went on to win a national championship.

UK: Transgender Pedophile Spared Prison After Being Caught With Sexual Abuse Images Of Children As Young As 6

A trans-identified male who was caught with images of young children being sexually abused has walked free from court after being given a community order. Tyler “Kairah” Kelly, 25, was formerly promoted as a happy “trans kid” by British media.

Kelly, of central Middlesborough, was initially arrested following a raid on his home in January. The investigation was reportedly sparked by a tip sent to police indicating that Kelly was in possession of illegal material. At the time of his arrest, two phones were seized from his home, with illegal material being found on one of them. According to Teeside Live, at least one of the images depicted a 6-year-old boy being sexually abused.

Kelly later pleaded guilty to three counts of making indecent images and possessing a prohibited image of a child.

During the trial, Kelly’s defense attorney, Robert Mochrie, said that his client has had a “difficult life due to gender dysphoria,” and lamented the “social isolation she has endured during her early years.” Mochrie described his client as a “prime candidate for rehabilitation.”

The court agreed, and handed Kelly a two-year community order, along with an order to attend a mental health treatment program for six months; an alcohol abstinence program for 120 days; and attend 20 rehabilitation days. Kelly was also made the subject of a sexual harm prevention order for the next five years, which restricts his use of the internet and allows police to search his devices at any time.

Kelly’s arrest holds particular significance, as just 10 years ago he was sympathetically profiled by media for being a “trans teen.”

In a 2016 Metro article, Kelly, who was 15 years old at the time, was described as “a Kim K-lookalike.” The article notes that Kelly began formally identifying as transgender over a school break, leaving as Tyler and returning as “Kairah.”

‘Radical’ Biden Judge Reverses RFK Jr. On Trans-Child Surgeries, Other Procedures

A federal judge deemed ‘too radical‘ by GOP lawmakers during his confirmation hearings said on Thursday that he will grant a motion by blue states to vacate (reverse) a declaration by HHS Director Robert F. Kennedy Jr. blocking breast removal and other procedures for youths with gender dysphoria. 

Oregon US District Judge Mustafa Kasubhai, who was appointed by Biden in late 2024 and only confirmed after Senate Democrats invoked cloture on his nomination by a 51-43 vote, said during a hearing that he would soon issue a formal written opinion and an order denying the government’s bid to dismiss the states’ case, and granting the states’ motion for summary judgement, according to court records. 

Kennedy issued a declaration in late 2025 that “ex-rejecting procedures for children and adolescents are neither safe nor effective as a treatment modality for gender dysphoria, gender incongruence, or other related disorders in minors, and therefore, fail to meet professional recognized standards of health care.”

This was based on a report by the Department of Health and Human Services which looked at procedures and treatments available for gender dysphoria, and concluded that many of them risk infertility. The Trump administration said that health care providers who perform breast removal and other procedures would be out of compliance with updated standards, while officials also moved to bar hospitals that participate in Medicare or Medicaid from performing the procedures on children. 

New York and 18 other states immediately sued, claiming that the new rules were illegal, and “amounts to an end-run around the free choice of provider statute because it effectively bars Medicaid beneficiaries from choosing providers that are otherwise qualified, simply because they furnish gender-affirming care to children or adolescents,” the states said in their motion for summary judgement. 

New York Attorney General Letitia James, one of the plaintiffs, said the forthcoming ruling siding with the states showed Kennedy “cannot unilaterally change medical standards by posting a document online, and no one should lose access to medically necessary health care because their federal government tried to interfere in decisions that belong in doctors’ offices.” –Epoch Times

At least 17 hospitals or health centers have been referred for possible punitive action for violating the HHS declaration, they said. 

Government lawyers argued in a brief that the declaration reflected Kennedy’s “non-binding policy position on the safety and efficacy of certain pediatric and adolescent treatment modalities,” and that the HHS report was one of many pieces of information officials considered in their decision. 

The admin also asked the court to dismiss the case over a lack of jurisdiction.

Court backs city censorship: Ontario appeal ruling blocks ‘Woman = Adult Female’ ad

The Ontario Court of Appeal has ruled against the Christian Heritage Party of Canada (CHP) in a high-profile free speech case, siding with the City of Hamilton’s decision to reject a controversial bus shelter ad.

The case stems from a 2023 attempt by CHP to purchase advertising space on Hamilton transit shelters. The proposed ad featured a smiling woman alongside the message: “Woman: An Adult Female.”

City officials blocked the ad, arguing it could offend transit users, a decision CHP challenged through judicial review before ultimately appealing to Ontario’s top court.

That challenge has now failed.

In its decision, the Court of Appeal upheld the city’s authority to control messaging in public advertising spaces even where that control intersects with constitutionally protected expression.

The ruling effectively shuts down CHP’s argument that a political party has the right to publicly promote what it describes as the biological, biblical, and dictionary definition of a woman in a public forum.

CHP leader Rod Taylor blasted the decision, calling it a blow to fundamental freedoms.

He argued that the ruling undermines core Charter protections, including freedom of speech, press, conscience, and association, and warned that ideological pressure is now influencing both legislatures and the courts.

The party says it will continue advocating for what it calls “truth and freedom,” despite the setback.

In today’s Canada, even defining a word can land you in court — and still lose.
