The culture wars are raging, but on at least one front the forces of good are winning. The “trans” ideology is crumbling fast. The latest evidence is this piece in Newsweek, written by two of the authors of the Department of Health and Human Services’ recent paper, “Treatment for Pediatric Gender Dysphoria: Review of Evidence and Best Practices.” The authors begin with a ritual denunciation of HHS and an assurance that “we, along with most of the other authors, are liberals.” But they go on to break the news to their fellow lefties: The approach to pediatric gender distress currently favored in the U.S., which involves the provision of puberty blockers

Jack Smith’s Tyrannical Arrogance
10 replies
Jack Smith, the special prosecutor who attempted to put President Trump in prison for acknowledging that the 2020 election was tainted by fraud, testified before the House Judiciary Committee the week before Christmas. Here are the video and transcript of his deposition. Smith’s testimony is disturbing because his argument in favor of prosecuting the president boils down to this: (1) Every sensible person knows that Joe Biden won the 2020 election. (2) For President Trump to pretend otherwise reveals that he is knowingly telling a “lie.” (3) By using this “lie” to undermine the 2020 election results, Trump committed fraud against the U.S. government
Nicolás Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, were indicted in the Southern District of New York, U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi announced early on Jan. 3.
“Nicolás Maduro has been charged with Narco-Terrorism Conspiracy, Cocaine Importation Conspiracy, Possession of Machineguns and Destructive Devices, and Conspiracy to Possess Machineguns and Destructive Devices against the United States,” Bondi said on X. “They will soon face the full wrath of American justice on American soil in American courts.”
Bondi issued the statement hours after Maduro and Flores were captured and extracted by U.S. armed forces in Caracas in the early hours of Jan. 3.

The Slow Decline of Public Education
9 replies
Public education has been undergoing a type of ideological and administrative mutilation for many decades. Under the guise of new educational paradigms that will supposedly both increasingly democratize education and improve learning, we see in the schools a collapse in student cooperation, an increase in violence and disruptive behaviors, a decline in academic achievement, and an increase in teacher turnover.
We have seen a shift away from individual work to cooperative learning where students work together in groups. “Learning together” is a mantra opposed to classical individual learning and individual responsibility. Other strategies intended to motivate students

Fox News reports that our armed forces carried out a “large-scale strike” in Venezuela early Saturday morning and took Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his wife into custody. President Trump relate on Truth Social that the operation was successful and Maduro and his wife were “captured and flown out of the country.” Trump said the operation was conducted with U.S. law enforcement and added that a news conference will take place at Mar-a-Lago at 11 a.m. on Saturday. It appears that congratulations are in order.
Our old friend Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau responded to Trump’s announcement on X, describing it as a “new dawn for Venezuela.
At the start of the COVID pandemic in 2020, California had more than 120,000 inmates in state prisons throughout the state.
When — in response to COVID-triggered shutdowns and layoffs — the federal government began pumping massive amounts of money into states’ unemployment compensation programs, the Administration of California Governor Gavin Newsom said “Hey, let’s pay prisoners in prisons and jails, they’re unemployed too.”
Well, maybe not quite as glibly as that, but it is a FACT that prison inmates in California prisons and county jails applied for and were paid unemployment compensation by Newsom’s “Employment Development Department” (EDD) which runs the state’s unemployment compensation system.
The U.S. military carried out a "large-scale strike" in Venezuela early Saturday morning and took Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his wife into custody, President Donald Trump confirmed.

At least seven explosions could be heard in Venezuela’s capital city of Caracas early Saturday morning, according to The Associated Press, and low-flying aircraft were seen flying over Caracas
Independent journalist Nick Shirley says he has received death threats and harassment — including phone calls to his family — after releasing a viral video alleging fraud at Minnesota daycare centers.
Shirley described the threats during a Dec. 31 appearance on the PBD Podcast, and said he was warned he would be "Kirked," a reference to the September assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk.
The backlash against the YouTuber follows his investigation into several publicly funded Minnesota daycare centers.
Shirley claimed the centers appeared largely empty despite receiving substantial state payments.
Independent journalist Nick Shirley humiliated the mainstream media last week by doing something that the media hasn’t done much of lately: investigative journalism. He visited the sites of suspected fraudulent day care centers in Minneapolis, showing they weren’t operating despite receiving more than $100 million in state aid.
So CNN decided to one-up Shirley by doing their own "investigative journalism.”
Correspondent Whitney Wilde tried calling the daycare centers to ask whether they were fraudulent.
I know. Amazing, right?
Spoiler alert: they said yes. So obviously, that mystery is solved.
Wilde explained in a voiceover in the segment that she "reached out to several of the day cares featured in the now viral video."

The biggest story of 2025, to judge from the number of people who sent it to me, was this raccoon: (Snip) In case you somehow missed this story: In late November, this raccoon got into a state liquor store in Ashland, Va., by falling though the ceiling. Once inside, the raccoon ransacked the store, leaving a trail of broken bottles... (Snip) ...and apparently consuming a large quantity of booze before passing out in the bathroom next to the toilet. That’s where the raccoon was found by a store employee, who called an animal-control officer, who took it to an animal shelter. When the raccoon finally sobered up, it was hired
It is the season for New Year’s Resolutions, always an exciting time. Diets begin and exercise regimens commence; people commit to look for new jobs, new relationships, new hobbies... addicts try to give up their demons, from candy to alcohol, from television to video games. Everything begins anew.
And if you look closely, you can even see it in the news coverage.
Look, for example, at the mainstream media coverage of Minnesota’s massive Somali corruption, with attitudes being wholly transformed in real time. There’s a clear process for the media to follow:
The mainstream media hides the story, hoping it will go away. Eventually, after enough video exposure,
Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-Ala.) said it succinctly on Wednesday, commenting on the news that New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani intended to be sworn in on the Qur’an: “The enemy is inside the gates.” Newsmax reported Thursday that in saying this, Tuberville had “ignited a fresh political firestorm.” It was just over two weeks ago that he ignited the last one, writing that “Islam is not a religion. It's a cult. Islamists aren't here to assimilate. They're here to conquer. Stop worrying about offending the pearl clutchers. We've got to SEND THEM HOME NOW or we'll become the United Caliphate of America.” According to Newsmax, Mamdani’s use of the Qur’an
Why Was 2023 So Warm?

Satellite records indicate that there was a sharp uptick in global temperatures in 2023, followed by a steep decline by 2025: [chart] Warmists were ecstatic over the 2023 increase, which they attributed to “climate change.” (It makes no sense to say that a change was caused by change, but put that aside for the moment.) As to the subsequent decline, they were almost entirely silent.
It seemed obvious to me that the most likely explanation was the extraordinary eruption of the Hunga Tonga underwater volcano in January 2022. That eruption, unprecedented in recorded history, sent vast quantities of water vapor into the atmosphere. Water vapor is, of course, the principal greenhouse

Rep. Eric Swalwell has promised to strip federal immigration officers of driving privileges if they wear masks while working in California, and that pledge has set off a legal and political fight. His comments came as he runs for governor and as California navigates a state law aimed at unmasking ICE agents, a move the federal government calls unconstitutional. The debate now centers on federal supremacy, public safety, and whether state leaders are playing political theater at the expense of law enforcement and immigrants alike.
Democratic New York Gov. Kathy Hochul sparked outrage Friday after ordering that 16 state landmarks – including Manhattan’s One World Trade Center – be illuminated in green to celebrate “the heritage and culture of Muslim Americans.”
Hochul’s decision to light up the skyscraper erected on the site where the Twin Towers were knocked down by terrorists during the 9/11 attacks was decried as “tone deaf” and “disgusting” by several social media users.
“The twin towers were unable to be lit green tonight,” Queens Republican Councilwoman Vickie Paladino wrote on X. “It’s disgusting that the Freedom Tower – which stands at the World Trade Center site

Until the past 24 hours, Nicolás Maduro Moros and other Venezuelan high-ranking individuals in the Maduro regime ran the Cartel of the Suns (Cartel de los Soles). Now that the U.S. has penetrated Venezuela’s defenses to capture and arrest Maduro, things have changed.
Maduro and his regime had corrupted the institutions of that country, including its military, its intelligence apparatus, its legislature, and its judiciary, all to aid his cartel’s massive criminal operations.
The Cartel de los Soles originated in Venezuela, and has been involved in the illicit drug trade, human smuggling and trafficking, extortion, sexual exploitation of women and children, and money laundering, along with other criminal activities.
Have you ever wondered why Democrats are so aggressively defending rampant fraud in Minnesota? Why Gov. Tim Walz so desperately wants to handle the investigation on his own? There’s a simple explanation: it has nothing to do with protecting vulnerable communities or fighting discrimination. Democrats are shielding these schemes because they profit directly from them.
Somali-run childcare centers, adult care facilities, and social service operations across the country are getting funded through programs riddled with fraud, and then the Democrats who enabled the fraud and looked the other way get a kickback.
The arrangement works beautifully for everyone except the taxpayers funding it.
The City of Portland has officially rolled out a new taxpayer-funded benefit: paid “Immigration, Naturalization, and Citizenship Leave” Human Resources Administrative Rule (HRAR) 6.15.
City officials have now committed public funds to cover paid leave for immigration court proceedings—including deportation hearings while blocking basic oversight, all while the city is facing a $66 million shortfall.
As of January 1, 2026, city workers in Portland, Oregon, can now clock out for up to 40 hours a year — without losing pay or benefits — to deal with immigration-related legal matters for themselves or for family members.
Eligible employees may use this leave for activities such as:

A massive amount of streaming TV shows aimed at small children contain sexualized LGBTQ+ content, despite efforts to create a more detailed ratings system to help parents navigate streaming content.For instance, 41 percent of shows that are supposed to be G-rated for kids on Netflix still has blatant gay content, including transgenderism, according to a year-end report by the activist group Concerned Women for America (CWA).The group also found that 21 percent of shows in the TV-Y category, which is meant to cover kids up to seven years, also has LGBTQ+ content. And the numbers only get worse for older kids.
