A Colorado bill could put doctors, government employees or morticians in jail if they accurately record the sex of deceased people who identified as transgender. The Colorado House is scheduled to hold a hearing on Feb. 25 examining legislation that would make it a crime not to abide by the chosen “gender identity” of deceased individuals on their death certificates. Medical experts expressed alarm at the attempt to erase biological reality from crucial state-issued documents.

Kinda harsh for a clerical error.

A thousand years from now, archaeologists will search through a trove of death certificates and ask, "what the heck does "T" mean?" Corpses with genitals altered or removed will be an even greater mystery.

How about the person who identifies as a cat.? Does the hospital or coroner sign out the death certificate as a cat? The stupidity is unreal.

A vital statistics document should state the truth. States have a long history of issuing false vital statistics documents to serve a social purpose. Adopted persons have been deprived of the knowledge of their own biological origins since the late 1940s. State courts authorized false birth certificates, listing the adoptive parents instead of the birth parents. The original birth certificates were sealed. In many states, notably Florida, the original birth certificates remain sealed, even to adult adoptees, forcing adopted persons to apply to a court to get a copy of the original birth certificate. Punishing "dead-naming" similarly elevates a social purpose over the truth. We have been headed this way for a long time, starting with changing the known sex on drivers' licenses and passports. "I want, I want" is the ultimate rationale for these changes. I refuse to participate in someone else's mental illness.

Democratic strategist James Carville criticized ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith in a Wednesday video for floating a presidential run as a Democrat due to the party’s lack of strong candidates. During a Monday episode of “The Stephen A. Smith Show,” Smith said that while he currently has no desire to run for president, he would do so as a Democrat if he ever chose to enter politics. Carville, in a YouTube video, said Smith is uninformed on the topic of politics and that he should stick to sports.

Democratic Texas Rep. Jasmine Crockett baselessly told “The View” co-hosts Wednesday that President Donald Trump has record-high approval ratings because Americans just are not educated enough to dislike him. Trump currently holds a record-high approval rating of 53%, as a high number of Americans believe he is fulfilling his campaign promises, according to a CBS News/YouGov poll from Feb. 9. Crockett, who is known for loudly screaming at her colleagues on the House floor, said with a straight face that there should not be a “loud” and so-called “ridiculous” person sitting in the Oval Office.

The head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) uncovered billions of fraudulent transactions, exposing another false left-wing narrative. The Trump Administration, through DOGE, is hitting a nerve among the left-wing media. First, they wanted you to believe that what DOGE is doing is unconstitutional. However, when polls showed that Americans overwhelmingly supported its efforts to uncover wasted spending by the federal government, they switched gears, now claiming that despite DOGE exposing billions in waste, there is no fraud.

On “Sunday Morning Futures with Maria Bartiromo,” the Fox News host asked Homan for his response to Ocasio-Cortez, who had recently posted on X, stating Homan should “learn to read” and start with the Constitution ...

For decades, car-making has been the jewel in Germany's industrial crown, a powerful symbol of the country's famous post-war economic miracle. Its "Big Three" brands, Volkswagen, Mercedes-Benz, and BMW, have long been praised for their performance, innovation and precision engineering. But today, the German motor industry is struggling. How can it get back on the road to recovery? When you arrive by train in Wolfsburg, Lower Saxony, the first thing you see is the Volkswagen factory. Its huge facade, emblazoned with a giant VW logo and flanked by four tall chimneys, dominates one bank of the canal that runs through the city.

DOGE discovers $4.7 trillion in Treasury

The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) announced Monday that some $4.7 trillion in payments from the Treasury Department were missing a critical tracking code which made tracing the transactions “almost impossible.” The transactions were reportedly missing the Treasury Account Symbol, or TAS, an identification code which links a Treasury payment to a budget line item, according to DOGE, which described the use of such code as a “standard financial process.” “In the Federal Government, the TAS field was optional for ~$4.7 Trillion in payments and was often left blank, making traceability almost impossible,” read an X post from DOGE.

To paraphrase Ernest Hemingway, there are two ways to descend into autocracy: gradually and then suddenly. Right now, we are on the bullet train. With President Trump in office only a month, many say his “shock and awe” campaign — issuing executive orders to abolish birthright citizenship, defund national health, invade sensitive Treasury payment systems, shutter USAID, impound funds allocated by Congress, fire civil servants and the like — puts us well on the road to autocracy. And the presence of his satrap, billionaire Elon Musk, makes even Republicans nervous and underscores the anxiety over where we are headed. The Democrats are stunned, wringing their hands.

Former FBI agent Peter Strzok has abruptly wiped his X account clean just as Kash Patel awaits confirmation as the new FBI Director. Strzok, whose name has become synonymous with controversy following his involvement in anti-Trump text messages and the Russia investigation, made the decision to erase his online presence amid growing anticipation of Patel’s confirmation. The move raises questions about Strzok’s intentions and whether it is linked to Patel’s expected leadership at the FBI. Strzok, who was dismissed from the FBI in 2018 for breaching bureau policies, played a key role in initiating the "Crossfire Hurricane" investigation into alleged Russian interference in the 2016 election.

Michelle King, a career federal worker who had been with SSA since 1994, quit over the DOGE disagreement Saturday and was replaced by Leland Dudek, the Washington Post reported on Monday. Dudek, who has been supportive of DOGE’s efforts to root out waste, fraud and abuse in the federal government, will serve as acting commissioner of SSA until President Trump’s pick to lead the agency, Frank Bisignano, is confirmed by the Senate, according to the outlet.

Kennedy scion Jack Schlossberg unleashed a foul-mouthed rant against Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) late Tuesday after his grandfather’s namesake JFK Presidential Library and Museum temporarily closed due to layoffs of taxpayer-funded staff. The 32-year-old grandson of President John F, Kennedy told the cost-cutting DOGE initiative to “eat s–t” after the Boston-based library shut its doors Tuesday afternoon because of staffing cuts. The library blamed the closure on President Trump’s recent executive order overhauling the federal workforce. “Hey, it’s Jack,” Schlossberg said in the clip posted online — just two weeks after he dramatically claimed he was quitting social media. “I’m OK, but our country is not.
