The Daily Caller News Foundation, aka DCNF, is reporting "Removing adolescents’ healthy body parts under the guise of treating gender dysphoria could soon become a 'thing of the past' as doctors reckon with the reality of financial penalties." It's possible that changing the financial incentives for that procedure will stop these mutilations. Further, it's essential that disincentives get put into place. DCNF is also reporting "A detransitioner’s landmark $2 million victory in her malpractice case and the first major medical association’s new opposition to 'gender-affirming' surgeries for minors will force medical professionals to seriously weigh the consequences of offering these procedures, advocates told the Daily Caller News Foundation." Look at how Democrats have euphemized the English language. The word detransitioner suggests that the person initially transitioned. Was there some sort of breakthrough where DNA tranaitioned from XY to ...

Kelly Morrison put on one of the most dishonest performances in the history of Almanac. During the interview, Eric Eskola questioned whether there was an opportunity to pass comprehensive immigration reform. Rep. Morrison replied "I certainly hope so. We're decades in the making of a standstill. As you both know, there was a pretty comprehensive bill that had been negotiated led by a pretty conservative Republican senator from Oklahoma named James Lankford." That's a lovely-sounding story but it's a whopper. While it's fact that Sen. Jim Lankford negotiated a somewhat comprehensive immigration bill, it wasn't comprehensive immigration reform because there a ton of poison pills in the bill. I read the bill. It would've codified into law Joe Biden's open borders policies. Further, the comprehensive immigration bill wasn't required. Within 2 weeks of President Trump getting sworn in, the border crisis was finished. Apparently, Rep. Morrison doesn...

reported A group of Minnesota mayors held a press conference Wednesday to once again urge state government officials to bring change to Minnesota’s finances. The group began as an individual, aka Mayor Purfeerst. Then it grew to 8 mayors from the Brainerd Lakes Area. Then it grew to 241 mayors statewide representing 1,092,129 people. That's about 20% of Minnesota's population. "We are here today to address two issues that are actively harming every hardworking Minnesotan: rampant fraud that continues to drain public trust and taxpayer dollars, as well as the failed economic direction of our state," said Mayor Jackson Purfeerst of Crosslake. The DFL's budgeting impact has been gigantic. Since that first letter more mayors have signed onto a different letter: Additionally, the mayors said they are seeing "businesses struggling to expand, workforce shortages, rising costs, and families choosing to leave Minnesota altogether." Since that letter was publishe...

Alpha News reported "An unsettling scene unfolded on Minneapolis streets over the weekend as anti-ICE activists turned public roadways into impromptu checkpoints and blockades, while Minneapolis police at one point looked on and walked away. It looks like in our system your plates came up as an ICE plate,' an activist said in a video recorded Monday. In another, anti-ICE agitators are seen assaulting reporter Jorge Ventura." The fact that MPD officers didn't help an ICE officer is disgusting. It's one thing for them not to assist this ICE officer. It's another when MPD officers won't enforce Minnesota laws. Alpha New's Genna Gloeb reported "Minneapolis police politely ask anti-ICE protesters blocking a street with recliners and gates to clear the way for emergency vehicles." Then she reported "We have fire trucks and ambulances that might need to get through here.' Protesters argue back. Police just walk away.'" Brian O...

Durig the latest version of Schumer's shutdown, Democrats insist that ICE agents muat stop wearing masks. Republicans are holding firm on this, citing as fact that they need to wear those masks to protect themselves and their families from protesters/rioters. Federal judge Katie Menendez's ruling provides the GOP with the ammunition they sought. In the ruling, Judge Menendez wrote "Defendants also presented evidence broadly discussing how immigration enforcement agents have been met with resistance and, in some cases, threats and violence by protestors." Thanks to this ruling, that claim is no longer just an allegation. It's now a finding of fact. The next time Chuck Schumer or the insufferable Hakeem Jeffries says 'if you've got nothing to hide, take off the mask,' I'd reply that 'my family's life isn't negotiable.' Then I'd add that these supposedly peaceful protesters are the opposite of peaceful. This says it all: "D...

There's an old joke that asks how you give a chammeleon a nervous breakdown. There are 2 answers, with the first answer being 'by putting the chameleon against a plaid background.' The other answer is 'by putting it against a paisley background.' I say this as the innocent bystander watching Angie Craig try to decide whether to run for the open U.S. Senate seat that Tina Smith currently hold as a moderate or whether she should run as a guns-ablazin' wild-eyed progressive. To Craig's credit, she's doing a nice job spinning her flip-flops, saying "I’ve always been hard to define as a member of Congress in my votes and I don’t think I’m very definable now. I always listen to my constituents, and that’s what I’ll continue to do for the people of Minnesota." Actually, she's easily defined. She's a hard-core liberal who doesn't believe in justice. She voted to impeach President Trump twice, once without a hint of admissable evidence. The...
