AG Pam Bondi Warns 3 States Over Transgender Sports Rules

U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi on Wednesday warned Minnesota, California, and Maine that they need to comply with federal law to keep “men out of women’s sports,” according to a statement issued by the Department of Justice (DOJ).

The DOJ said Bondi sent letters to the officials of those three states and said that they may be out of compliance with an order signed by President Donald Trump earlier this month that makes it illegal for transgender individuals to compete in women’s and girls’ sports.

This Department of Justice will defend women and does not tolerate state officials who ignore federal law,” Bondi said in the statement. “We will leverage every legal option necessary to ensure state compliance with federal law and President Trump’s executive order protecting women’s sports.”

Bondi sent letters to California Interscholastic Federation Executive Director Ron Nocetti, Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison, and Erich Martens, executive director of the Minnesota State High School League. She also sent a letter to Maine Gov. Janet Mills.

Trump and Mills, a Democrat, were involved in a verbal altercation on Feb. 20 while the president was meeting with governors. The president told Mills that she needed to comply with the executive order or he would withhold education funding to her state.

“We are the federal law,” Trump told her at one point. “You‘d better do it. You’d better do it, because you’re not going to get any federal funding at all if you don’t.”

“See you in court,” Mills said in response, according to a video recording of the exchange between the two.

Trump then told her: “Good, I’ll see you in court.”

In a statement on Feb. 21, Mills said that she and the state of Maine won’t “be intimidated” by Trump’s warning that federal education funding could be withheld.

“If the President attempts to unilaterally deprive Maine school children of the benefit of Federal funding, my Administration and the Attorney General will take all appropriate and necessary legal action to restore that funding and the academic opportunity it provides,” she said.

Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison said in a letter last week that Trump’s order “would violate the Minnesota Human Rights Act,” a state law that allows transgender individuals to compete in women’s sports.

Washington State Launches Bullying Investigation into Teen Girl Who Refused to Play Against Trans Opponent

Officials of deep blue Washington State have launched a full-blown “investigation” alleging “harassment” against a teen high school girl who refused to take the court against a transgender player on an opposing girl’s basketball team.

The Foundation Against Intolerance & Racism (FAIR) filed a complaint against the school for teen Frances Staudt, a girl who plays for the Tumwater High School girl’s basketball team.

At issue is Staudt’s refusal to play in a game on February 6 after she noticed that one of the players on the opposing team, Andi Rooks, is a transgender athlete and her subsequent accusations that the school district moved to punish her for her position on transgender athletes.

Staudt says she asked Principal Zach Suderman and Athletic Director Jordan Magrath to remove the male player or stop the game. However, Suderman noted that the state’s governing body for sports, the Washington Interscholastic Activities Association, has rules allowing students to participate under their chosen gender. Staudt also says that Rooks “brutalized” her teammates on the court during the game, and she offered a video to prove her point.

After stating her position, Tumwater school officials launched an investigation into the girl, accusing her of “harassment,” “bullying,” and “misgendering” against the visiting transgender student.

The Staudt family has countered by accusing Suderman of ridiculing the girl over her ideals. The family also says that school officials threatened Staudt’s brother for taking video of the game.

The Staudts also allege that school officials harassed them after they posted about the issue on their personal social media accounts. At one point, Rook’s father allegedly sent threatening text messages to the Staudt family, demanding that they remove the posts.

LGBT Activist Arrested As Ringleader Of International Pedophile Network

In November 2023, the French National Police inaugurated its Office Of Minors (L’OFMIN) in an effort to dedicate much needed resources to tackling child abuse in the country that has been mired in social decay since President Emmanuel Macron took office in 2017. Just one month into its existence, L’OFMIN spearheaded a European-wide operation that resulted in the identification of hundreds of pedophiles, leading to dozens of arrested. The department has continued on in that mission with the arrests of several members of a human trafficking network of pedophiles based out of France.

The criminal syndicate had been operating between the northern French province of Loire-Atlantique across the country’s border with Belgium. Its horrific crimes are reminiscent of the Dutroux affair, one of the most infamous episodes of child sex abuse to ever come to light in modern European history. 20 years after Marc Dutroux was sentenced to life in prison for his child sex crimes, the prominent LGBT activist that authorities have alleged is the ring leader of the pedophile ring uncovered by L’OFMIN is poised to supplant Dutroux as the face of those heinous crimes.

French newspaper La Parisien reported that a “32 year-old family assistant in Loire-Atlantique” was arrested as the leader of the pedophile ring. While the suspects arrested have yet to be officially identified in the press, law enforcement officials who analyzed the child sex abuse videos posted on the dark web by the pedophile ring were able to identify them, leading to their arrests. L’OFMIN and Dutch authorities were tipped off after the videos were reported on the messaging platform Telegram. Those reports led to a forensic examination of the evidence that identified a medical bed being used in the torture of one of the children. They were then able to trace the purchase of the particular type of bed, which led them to the suspected ring leader of the network, Pierre-Alain Cottineau.

Cottineau gained notoriety in France for his activism as a pro-LGBT advocate. His rise in France’s far-left politic landscape took off in 2021 when he ran in departmental elections as part of the La France Insoumise party (LFI). His political ascendancy was shaped by years of LGBT advocacy, in which he founded several activist groups including the Oudon Solidarity and Mutual Aid Collective and the LGBTQI+ Association of Ancenis after being elected president of The Rainbow Shelter, a nascent LGBT rights organization working to combat homophobia and transphobia throughout France.

However, Cottineau’s reputation would not be defined by his political advocacy. In September 2024, the LGBT activist was arrested on sexual assault charges for the abuse of 4 year-old disabled child. Cottineau’s 2024 arrest came after videos of the abuse were uncovered by French authorities in the city of Nantes. The victim of the rape had been under the care of Cottineau, who was working as the caregiver of the disabled child after authorities placed her in his custody at his home. The victim was placed in Cottineau’s custody just 1 week after Child Welfare Services approved his application to become a foster parent, in which he specifically sought a license to take custody of children 6 years of age and younger.

Trump’s Cuts to USAID May Force Stonewall to Make Half its Staff Redundant, LGBT Organisation Claims. But Story Doesn’t Add Up

Trump’s foreign aid freeze has left Stonewall crumbling, with up to half its staff facing the axe. At least, that’s the story the organisation appears to have leaked to the Times. But it’s deeply fishy.

Workers at the LGBTQ+ charity were told on Thursday that restructuring would take place, and that only roles with dedicated funding would be safe.

Simon Blake, the Chief Executive of Stonewall, made the announcement in an office-wide Teams call, which was said to have left its 114 staff “shell-shocked”.

Sources said they believed up to half of the workforce could be made redundant in the move, which they were told would “secure the future of Stonewall for the long term as a significant LGBTQ+ organisation able to deliver impactful campaigns and legislative change across the UK and further afield”.

Insiders believed the announcement was linked to decisions made by Trump over the provision of foreign aid. Blake had previously warned of the impact Trump’s move would have on Stonewall’s operations.

Funding from the US came to Stonewall through the Global Equality Fund (GEF), administered by the US State Department, which has given the charity more than half a million pounds in the past three years. The GEF focuses on “advancing LGBTI rights around the world” and is a pooled fund with contributions from numerous countries and private businesses, but it has not published accounts since 2015. …

Stonewall has also lost funding elsewhere. Its most recent accounts said it incurred a deficit of £858,000 in the 2023-24 financial year. This rose from £437,000 the previous year.

Income from fees, for example from its Diversity Champions workplace inclusion programme, fell between 2023 and 2024, as did income from other programmes.

Worth reading in full.

Why do I say it’s fishy? Well, making half the 114 staff redundant because Stonewall is no longer going to receive ~£166,000 a year from USAID only makes sense if its 114 staff are being paid, on average, £2,912 a year each (57 x 2,912 = ~166,000). So, the nasty orange man’s spiteful cuts to Stonewall’s funding must be an excuse, not the real reason for the redundancies.

Maine Boy Scores Dominating Win in Girls’ Pole Vault Championship as Governor Defies Trump Over Banning Men from Women’s Sports

While Maine Governor Janet Mills defies Trump over his perfectly constitutional order banning men from women’s sports, girls continue to have their glory stripped away from them in the Pine Tree State.

As Jim Hoft reported earlier this month, Trump signed a landmark executive order that ensured biological men could not compete in women’s sports.

The executive order directs the Department of Education to enforce Title IX based on biological sex, threatening to withhold federal funding from educational institutions that allow transgender women to compete in women’s sports. In the event that the Department of Education is dismantled, other agencies will take over.

On Monday night, a biological boy calling himself “Katie Spencer” from Greely High School in Cumberland, Maine, easily won first place in the girls’ state championship meet.

Fox News reported that he outleaped every female by at least half a foot.

Adding insult to injury, Spencer’s pole vault was the main reason his track and field team won the Class B state championship meet by ONE POINT.

Maine GOP State Rep. Laurel Libby also revealed another outrageous fact on Facebook: “Katie Spencer” had competed as John Rydzewski in the boy’s pole vault just one year ago and won fifth place. He then started competing as a girl in June 2024.

Bizarre: Trans Activist Says “Why Not?” to Combining Paralympics and Olympics

Trans activist Blossom C. Brown joined Piers Morgan to push the bizarre idea of a gender-neutral Olympics.

But her bizarre take did not stop there.

Fellow guest Riley Gaines, who has been a champion of protecting women’s sports, asked a question so outlandish she probably thought Blossom would finally admit how ridiculous her premise is.

Should the Paralympics and the Olympics also then be combined if we are going to ignore physical advantages?

Her answer, while bizarre, should not come as a surprise to anyone who has watched efforts to have women canceled from many areas of society, including sports.

DOE Launches Investigation into Maine Just Hours After Governor Sparred with Trump at White House Over Men in Women’s Sports

The Department of Education launched an investigation into Maine’s compliance with Title IX laws just hours after the governor sparred with President Donald Trump over men playing in women’s sports.

Democrat Maine Governor Janet Mills clashed with the president at a meeting of the National Governors Association (NGA) on Friday.

The fight was over Trump’s landmark executive order signed on February 5, which ensured that biological men could not compete in women’s sports. States that allow it will be subject to losing federal funding from the Department of Education.

Mills released a statement on Friday vowing not to follow the order and asserting, “The State of Maine will not be intimidated by the President’s threats.”

“If the president attempts to unilaterally deprive Maine school children of the benefit of federal funding, my administration and the attorney general will take all appropriate and necessary legal action to restore that funding and the academic opportunity it provides,” Mills added.

Trump called the governor out for her remarks during the meeting.

“Is the governor of Maine here?” Trump asked.

After confirming she was present, Trump asked Mills if she intended to defy his executive order.

“I am complying with state and federal laws,” Mills replied.

“Well, we are the federal law,” Trump replied. “You better do it. “You better do it because you’re not going to get any federal funding at all if you don’t.”

“By the way…your (state’s) population doesn’t want men playing in women’s sports. So you better comply because otherwise, you’re not getting any federal funding,” he added.

Mills, attempting to act tough, responded that she will see him in court.

“Good. That should be a real easy (case) one,” he stated. “And enjoy your life after governor because I don’t think you’ll be in elected politics.”

Female HS basketball player refuses to play against boy; gets investigated for ‘harassment’

A 15-year-old girl at a Washington State high school is under investigation for “bullying” and “harassment” for allegedly “misgendering” a male player on an opposing girls basketball team.

According to a complaint from the Foundation Against Intolerance & Racism, earlier this month Tumwater High School player Frances Staudt noticed during pre-game warm-ups that her team’s opponent had a biological male on its roster.

Tumwater Principal Zach Suderman and Athletic Director Jordan Magrath confirmed this was the case as Washington Interscholastic Activities Association policy allows students to “play on the team that aligns with their ‘gender identity.’”

In addition, state officials have voiced objections to President Trump’s executive order barring biological men from competing on women’s sports teams.

The attorney general’s office said “we are repulsed by the president’s dehumanization of the trans community,” and Superintendent of Public Instruction Chris Reykdal called the EO “discrimination against trans female athletes.”

Seattle state-funded non-profit promotes bondage, ‘jack-off clubs’

Tens of thousands of dollars of taxpayer money were given to a Seattle foundation that supports bondage programming and “jack-off clubs” where members can “share masturbation and mutual touch in an open, group setting.” Volunteers, calling themselves WA DOGE, revealed that Washington’s Arts Commission gave the funds to the Pan Eros Foundation, an organization that “celebrates and cultivates consent & sexuality through the arts & education for all.”

The organization received $2,000 in the 2023-2025 biennium, according to the Evergreen State’s “open checkbook” website. Tax forms reveal that the organization received $60,000 in “government grants.”

One of the ongoing programs listed on the organization’s calendar is Rain City Jacks “a traditional jack-off club.” According to the event listing, calling it an “associated event,” “Rain City Jacks hosts regular, private events for its members to share masturbation and mutual touch in an open, group setting. Membership is available to adult men who desire and value what we have to offer, respect the Jacks culture of mutual respect and consent, and adhere to the RCJ Code of Conduct.”

Membership is required for participation in RCJ events and Rain City Jacks “welcomes all adult men, including trans men, regardless of age, race, ability, physicality, sexual orientation, or other subjective external traits.”
