Ohio child welfare agency secretly tracking sexual orientation and transgender identity of children

An Ohio child welfare agency has made a database tracking the sexual orientation, transgender identity and pronouns of children who communicated with the agency.

The Cuyahoga County Division of Children and Family Services (DCFS) developed a supposed “confidential spreadsheet” that monitored the sexual orientations and transgender identities of children.

The report, which describes a document acquired by the Daily Caller News Foundation (DCNF), spotlights the extent to which some government agencies entrusted with the protection of children have been captured by trans activists.

The document features entries dated from March 2018 to August 2024 and the spreadsheet was part of the agency’s “Safe Identification” program, which teaches social services personnel how to gather information about the sexuality and gender identity of children.

The DCNF discovered that the Cuyahoga County DCFS was one of four social service agencies in the United States “chosen to research, develop and evaluate transgender ideology-based child welfare interventions that suggest parents and caregivers who do not affirm a child’s sexual orientation or gender confusion are unsafe and may need to have their children removed from their home.”

Members of President Joe Biden’s administration called the Cuyahoga County group “trailblazers” and wished to nationalize their model.

The Cuyahoga County DCFS team influenced the recently completed Biden order, which requires child welfare systems to approve and support gender confusion. Staff members described the confidential spreadsheet as their means of “assisting” children acquire gender treatments. They also shared that some of the children they tracked were as young as five years old.

They tracked if children were “transgender or gender diverse,” naming them as pansexual, bisexual, gay, lesbian, straight or “questioning” their sexual orientation.

‘What Did He Even Mean by This?’: Tim Walz Sparks Outrage After Internet Hears What He Called Elon Musk

Tim Walz continues to light up the internet — for all the wrong reasons.

The Minnesota governor and Democratic vice presidential candidate has been in a proxy war with billionaire Elon Musk over Musk’s support for former President Donald Trump — Walz effectively called Musk a “dips*** last week, as Fox News reported.

And at a campaign stop in Detroit on Friday, he sparked a storm of social media responses after he appeared to imply that Musk, a father of 12, is homosexual — and Walz was clearly insulting Musk at the time…

Walz was in the process of talking about the economy when he turned the subject to tax cuts for billionaires like Musk.

“If you’re a billionaire, Elon Musk for example, say, that gah … , that gay got …” then he snickered.
“Michigan knows that word,” he said.

“Look, that dude got a tax cut and the rest of us got shafted on the whole deal,” he said.

(The full video of the event is available here. Walz’s “gay guy” comments come about the 6:30 mark.)

Now, Walz almost certainly didn’t start out intending to call Musk “gay.” From the sound of the butchered sentence, he was trying to say “that guy got” and it came out as “that gay go…”

But his juvenile leering — along with the “Michigan knows that word” aside he tossed to the crowd — showed that once Walz committed the error, he also committed to going ahead with what he clearly meant as a slur. (To give Walz credit, he did switch the troublesome word to “dude.”)

Now, it’s safe to say that if Musk were gay, the world wouldn’t have needed Tim Walz to break the news. And it’s a damn good bet that he’s not.

Besides the dozen children he’s sired, the uber billionaire’s romantic life is the stuff of international tabloid fare (how many other guys have dated actress Amber Heard?), and it’s a better-than-even chance the news of any gay liaisons would have leaked long ago.

Trans athletes who competed on women’s teams feel victimized after being featured in Trump’s ads defending women’s sports

As the election nears, the Trump campaign and Republicans across the country have been pushing advertising hammering Democrats for the allowance of biological males on women’s sports teams, taxpayer-funded sex changes for trans-identified prisoners, and other topics related to trans issues.

One trans-identified male, Gabrielle Ludwig, who was featured in an ad on the participation of biological males in women’s sports spoke out, telling The Hill, “I haven’t been able to sleep. I don’t want my family affected. I have granddaughters, daughters who are in college. I only did this because I love to play basketball. That’s all it ever was.” Ludwig played women’s college basketball as a 50-year-old biological male claiming to be female.

The ad in question, which read “no men in girls’ sports,” featured photos and video of Ludwig from the early 2010s when Ludwig played basketball on the women’s team at Mission College in Santa Clara, California. These photos and videos were featured in at least eight other ads targeting Dem incumbent Senators Bob Casey of Pennsylvania, Jon Tester of Montana, and Sherrod Brown of Ohio, and were paid for by the Republican super PAC the Senate Leadership Fund. Ludwig towered over the female players and was decades older.

Another photo of Ludwig appeared in a Trump campaign ad, showing the then-mid-50s Ludwig playing alongside college-aged females. Ludwig said the ads have put the former athlete back in the spotlight. “I fear for my life, for my family. There are trans people killed for no other reason than because they’re trans. By Trump coming out and using my image, I feel that he’s feeding the fire.”

Ludwig is considering taking legal action against the Trump campaign and the Senate Leadership Fund for unauthorized use of the former athlete’s image, but said, “If I go that route, and it ends up in litigation, my life is going to be splayed. I wish I never lost my anonymity. I wish I never, ever joined a women’s basketball team.”

Whistleblower Reveals Trans-Identified Male Had Been Admitted To Women’s Rehab Unit In Massachusetts And Sexually Harassed Female Patients

A whistleblower has come forward to reveal that a trans-identified male was allowed on an all-female addictions rehabilitation unit at Massachusetts’ Behavioral Health Network (BHN), leading to the sexual and physical harassment of female patients.

John*, a veteran of the Marine Corps, is a rehabilitative specialist who worked at BHN for just over one year beginning in June of 2023, and worked with patients on multiple units within the BHN care center. One, known as New View, was an all-female unit intended for women under Massachusetts’ Section 35 – a mandatory rehabilitation order.

“You can [admit] yourself, but usually a spouse or family member goes to the courthouse and tries to section you. You have to be ‘a danger to yourself or others’ and a judge makes the final decision,” John explains, adding that even he didn’t feel comfortable being assigned to the unit due to concerns for the dignity of the women there.

Woke doc refused to publish $10 million trans kids study that showed puberty blockers didn’t help mental health

A prominent doctor and trans rights advocate admitted she deliberately withheld publication of a $10 million taxpayer-funded study on the effect of puberty blockers on American children — after finding no evidence that they improve patients’ mental health.

Dr. Johanna Olson-Kennedy told the New York Times that she believes the study would be “weaponized” by critics of transgender care for kids, and that the research could one day be used in court to argue “we shouldn’t use blockers.”

Critics — including one of Olson-Kennedy’s fellow researchers on the study — said the decision flies in the face of research standards and deprives the public of “really important” science in a field where Americans remain firmly divided.

Trans suspect accused of killing Pennsylvania officer was earlier released without bail by leftist nonbinary judge

A transgender suspect has been arrested over the fatal stabbing attack of a Pennsylvania State Police officer on a popular recreation trail outside of Pittsburgh on Monday. The suspect identified as Anthony Alexi “Antonia” Quesen, 25, of Pittsburgh, was previously arrested in June 2023 on felony robbery charges but was quickly released without bail by leftist nonbinary judge Xander Orenstein of the Magisterial District Court. Quesen skipped all further arraignments for that case and allegedly went on to kill.

Quesen, a biological male who identifies as a woman, was taken into custody Monday evening on criminal homicide charges. He is being held at the Allegheny County Jail awaiting arraignment, police said. The victim, identified as 44-year-old Benjamin Brallier, was a Liquor Enforcement Officer for the Pennsylvania State Police Department.

Straight Pride

As it is, I am not allowed to be proud of my heterosexuality. In truth, it is not something to be proud of. But for the same reason, there is nothing to be proud of in being homosexual, or bi or trans, or any variety of sexual preference or orientation or identity. Nothing.

Well, a person can be proud of the advancements an identified group has accomplished (particularly if you are a member of that group). Considering the trials and tribulations gay people have faced over the centuries, the fortitude, effort, and sacrifice they have made to socially be where they are today is certainly something a person could be proud of. But that isn’t being proud of being gay. That is being proud of character, resilience, resolve and fortitude. Being gay may have been the impetus for those admirable attributes, but gayness itself is not.

Pride is actually one of the Seven Cardinal Sins. And there is good reason for it to be. “Pride goes before destruction, a haughty spirit before a fall” (Proverbs 16:18) and all that. Of course, common sense would say that is not what gay pride is about. However, if we see that massive movement toward gay pride (or trans pride) as a product of the agenda, we can clearly see that it is intended to cause disruption. How so?

Well, we do see a lot of resistance to this movement. We see straight people feeling “slighted” and ignored and feeling like victims in the expectation they should be following, and complying, to all that is going on in this movement—particularly in schools that their children attend. The Gay Pride flag is seen now nearly everywhere you turn, flying alongside the US or Canadian flag (and probably elsewhere in other countries as well)—very often on the same staff.

I recently got into one of those pointless Facebook exchanges with someone who was arguing for the presence of these flags in the classroom (elementary, middle and high school). She claimed to be a teacher and felt that these kids (the one the flag represents) need to feel a part of something that they can be proud of. I responded to her the same way I am responding here. That sort of pride should not be encouraged as it creates the very problem that this teacher was claiming it was resolving.

I mentioned that flags themselves were developed to exclude. The pride one feels for a nation’s flag is an exclusionary response—the flag represents “us” and excludes “them.” That is the whole point. You either belong to the group this flag represents, or you are the enemy. The flag was used in the battlefield to differentiate the good guys from the bad guys (you were good or bad depending on which flag you were allied with).

If you live within the borders of a particular country that is not at war with another country, your pride in the flag is rather innocuous. There should be no one around that opposes it—who doesn’t belong to the same group the flag represents if you are living on the same soil. But the LGBTQIA+ flag represents a certain demographic and excludes another that is also in its presence. Maybe gay and trans kids feel proud belonging to that group the flag represents, at the expense of all the kids who do not belong to the group—the straight kids.

If young enough (which probably would include anyone under 40), the “group pride of the kids the flag represents” may cause the kids it does not represent to want to be part of the group it does represent. “Oh sure, why not?” the flag group says, and apparently the “officials” who allow the presence of the flag to begin with agree. The presence of the “proud flag wavers” creates pressure to those not belonging to the group. That pressure can become the social contagion that creates false identities and a myriad of other psychological problems.

This sort of division can also cause rebellion and a resistance to “joining the flag group.” Kids who dislike the flag wavers, and therefore creates discrimination and “homophobia” or “transphobia”—it isn’t good, folks.

Unhinged Transgender Activist Caught on Camera Throwing Tomato Juice on Conservative Students at UC Berkeley

An unhinged transgender activist was caught on camera throwing tomato juice on conservative students with Turning Point USA during a tabling event at UC Berkeley.

The table was being manned by parental rights advocate Harrison Tinsley and former “trans kid” Chloe Cole, who has since detransitioned and become a fierce advocate against child sex changes.

Cole posted images of the activist on X and wrote, “You still can’t change your gender, and you can’t expect me to believe someone like this is mature enough to make life-changing decisions.”

According to Cole, the activist “drenched a chapter member and his MacBook.”

She later added, “The perpetrator was detained. I will do my best to press charges.”

Kamala Harris Projects The Left’s Military Takeover On Trump

After spending four years spearheading an administration that’s injected Marxist ideology into the military, Kamala Harris is now accusing Donald Trump of wanting to hijack the U.S. armed forces for his own political gain.

In an impromptu speech at the Naval Observatory on Wednesday, the vice president outlandishly claimed that Trump once “said he wanted generals like Adolf Hitler had.” She also baselessly contended the former president “does not want a military that is loyal to the United States Constitution,” but one “that is loyal to him.”

The unfounded assertions seemingly stem from a recently published Atlantic piece authored by misinformation trafficker Jeffrey Goldberg. Known for deploying the debunked “suckers” and “losers” hoax against Trump before the 2020 election, Goldberg’s new article cites anonymous sources who supposedly claim Trump disparaged a deceased service member and that he said he “need[s] the kind of generals that Hitler had” during his time as president.

Numerous former Trump administration officials and the deceased soldier’s sister — who said she voted for Trump this week — have since publicly denounced Goldberg’s smear job as completely false. But truth is of little concern to Harris, who gleefully weaponized the obvious pre-Election Day hit piece to paint Trump as a wannabe-dictator seeking to overthrow the military for personal gain.

Trump “wants a military who will be loyal to him personally, one that will obey his orders even when he tells them to break the law or abandon their oath to the Constitution of the United States,” Harris said.

As is the case with her ominous claims that Trump will use lawfare to target his political opponents if elected, Harris is projecting the Democrat Party’s authoritarian agenda onto the former president. Throughout the past four years, the Biden-Harris administration has been steadily “reimagining” America’s military into a force that prioritizes the institution-wide adoption neo-Marxist ideology.

Shortly after taking power, the administration implemented an executive order mandating all federal agencies — including the Defense Department — adopt discriminatory “diversity, equity, and inclusion” (DEI) policies throughout their respective workforces. Military branches such as the Navy issued their own directives that year requiring officials to “develop a strategy to advance DEI across the enterprise.”

New UN Study on “Violence Against Women and Girls” Reveals Female Athletes Have Lost Almost 900 Medals to Trans Opponents

A new study from the UN special rapporteur on violence against women and girls, Reem Alsalem, was recently presented to the UN General Assembly.

The study “Violence against women and girls in sports” shares that more than 600 female athletes have lost to competitors who were born male in a variety of athletic events resulting in female athletes losing almost 900 medals to trans opponents.

The study states, “The Special Rapporteur examines the forms of violence experienced by women and girls in sport, their causes and the perpetrators of this violence, and offers recommendations for better prevention and response to violence against women and girls in sport. The Special Rapporteur received over 100 submissions from relevant stakeholders. She also held expert consultations in which 50 persons participated.”

“According to information received, by 30 March 2024, over 600 female athletes in more than 400 competitions have lost more than 890 medals in 29 different sports.”

“The replacement of the female sports category with a mixed-sex category has resulted in an increasing number of female athletes losing opportunities, including medals, when competing against males.”

The study also points out the obvious biological advantages male athletes have that can positively impact their performance in athletic endeavors which Alsalem states can result in the “loss of fair opportunity” for female competitors and increase the risk of physical violence against women and girls.
