A Sex Ed Teacher named Kerri Isham might be grooming kids to be groomers themselves. Kerri Isham, the founder of the organization “Power Up Sexual Health Education”, an organization whose own stated purpose “is dedicated to giving kids a healthy view of sexual health,” was teaching 9th graders in the Quamichan School in Duncan, British Columbia, about “sexuality.”

In her program, she admitted, “I did talk to students in Grade 9 at the school about MAPs. A MAP is a person who’s ‘minor attracted.’” Her organization also believes you should start talking to kids about sex as early as w because, “Why teach early? We believe educating early is the key to eliminating sexual abuse. Educating early does not strip your child of their innocence – but sexual abuse will.”

Excerpt:

The founder and operator of Power Up is Kerri Isham, and she is under fire for her decision, during a presentation to Grade 9 students at the Quamichan School in Duncan, British Columbia, to refer to pedophiles as “MAPs” – that is, “Minor Attracted Persons.” This is a phrase preferred by pedophiles, who believe that “MAP” is a destigmatizing term that assists in legitimizing their “identity” and promotes social acceptance of their sexual attractions. 

Isham admitted as much in a video posted for Facebook. “I did talk to students in Grade 9 at the school about MAPs,” she said. “A MAP is a person who’s ‘minor-attracted.’ This is an identity usually for men. MAPs are not part of the 2SLGBTQ+ community. They would like to be, but they’ll never be accepted by the community because MAPs harm children. Instead of using the word ‘pedophile,’ they want to legitimize what they are doing by changing their identity to MAP.” 

It is strange that Isham admitted that “MAP” is a term of “legitimization” – but still chose to use it. Indeed, asserting control over the language used in any debate over identity is a way of shaping the conclusion, which is precisely why pedophiles wish to choose their own labels.

Kamala Harris told a reporter that any hope any American would have to get a religious exemption from having to perform an abortion if their work “required it” should be tossed into the dustbin of history.

Harris told an MSM reporter, in response to their question about religious exemptions, “I don’t think we should be making concessions when we’re talking about a fundamental freedom to make decisions about your own body.”

What a ghoul. Seriously. This woman makes me sick. Somehow, her tongue doesn’t get twisted when she’s talking about abortion:

REPORTER: What concessions would be on the table? Religious exemptions, for example? Is that something that you would consider?

HARRIS: I don’t think we should be making concessions when we’re talking about a fundamental freedom to make decisions about your own body.

REPORTER: To Republicans like, for example, Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, who would back something like this on a democratic agenda if, in fact, Republicans control Congress. Would you offer them an olive branch or is that off the table? Is that not an option for you.

HARRIS: I’m not going to engage in hypotheticals because we can go on with a variety of scenarios. Let’s start with the fundamental fact. A basic freedom has been taken from the women of America, the freedom to make decisions about their own body. And that cannot be negotiable, which is that we need to put back in the protections of Roe v. Wade, and that is it.

The Microsoft Report claimed, “Actors have parroted antisemitic messages, amplified accusations of corruption, and promoted opposition candidates. While not always resulting in high levels of engagement, these efforts demonstrate China’s sustained attempts influence U.S. politics across the board. History has shown foreign actors’ ability to rapidly distribute deceptive content can significantly impact public perception and electoral outcomes.

China is meddling with American elections in three states while also smearing Republican Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida, according to Microsoft.

A report from the Microsoft Threat Analysis Center said China is targeting three Republicans – Reps. Barry Moore of Alabama, Michael McCaul of Texas as well as Sen. Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee – all of whom are up for election next month, as well as Rubio.

“Chinese influence operations have focused on down-ballot Republican candidates and members of Congress that advocate for anti-Chinese policies,” Microsoft said in its report.

When Tim Walz (D-MN) was a teacher in a Nebraska High School in 1996, he welcomed a delegation of Chinese Communist Party officials. Ye Guoqiang and Yi Hongtao, to “study the education system” of the United States.

James Comer (R-KY) has noted yet another CCP connection to Walz, saying, “Governor Tim Walz’s documented relationships with Chinese Communist Party affiliated entities and officials bears hallmarks of a CCP infiltration and influence campaign. FBI briefers recently informed the Oversight Committee that the Bureau’s Foreign Influence Task Force investigates CCP subnational influence operations and activity that is similar to how China has engaged with Governor Walz.”

Excerpt:

A new report claims that Governor Tim Walz (D-Minn.), the Democratic nominee for vice president, once allowed several officials with the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) into his classroom in Nebraska while he was still a schoolteacher in the 1990s.

According to the Daily Caller, Walz greeted a delegation of three CCP officials, labeled as “educators,” in February of 1996 when they visited the Alliance High School’s social studies class. The purpose of their visit was to allegedly “study the education system” of the United States. But some of the officials were working at the time for a Chinese intelligence agency.

The delegation consisted of two CCP officials, Ye Guoqiang and Yi Hongtao, who at the time were members of Guangzhou Institute of Physical Education; they were accompanied by their interpreter, Ning Ziheng. While there was no proof that Ziheng was a CCP member, the other two delegation members had been involved with the CCP for decades prior to their visit.

Details of their visit were provided in large part by a newspaper article from 1996 in the Alliance Times-Herald detailing the delegation’s visit. The article even included a black-and-white photograph of Walz and the three Chinese officials in the classroom together.

Arrest made in connection with 3 shootings at Democratic party office in Phoenix suburb – USA TODAY

Excerpt:

A man has been arrested in connection with shootings at a Democratic party office in the Phoenix suburb of Tempe.

Police identified the man as 60-year-old Jeffrey Michael Kelly, who was arrested Tuesday and charged with 10 counts including committing a terrorist act, criminal damage and unlawful discharge, among others, according to Tempe police.

Additional pending counts against Kelly could also include ones related to an incident where he allegedly left bags of white powder on political signs in the area as well as hanging political signs lined with razor blades, according to court documents.

About a dozen personnel, some from the FBI, were seen at Kelly’s home on Wednesday morning taking inventory of guns found inside, according to reporting from the Arizona Republic, part of the USA TODAY Network.

…A prosecutor from the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office said Kelly was “preparing to commit an act of mass casualty.” A court document, obtained by the Republic, said that Kelly’s actions showed a pattern of escalation of his suspected terrorist activity…

The latest shooting at the Democrats’ field office occurred early on Oct. 6. The other two shootings happened in September and within the span of a week − the first on Sept. 16 and the second on Sept. 23. All of the incidents occurred between midnight and 1 a.m. local time.

Excerpt:

… From Monday night into Tuesday morning, documents say Kelly was observed posting “anti-Democratic ideology signs“ at various locations near his Ahwatukee home.

The places included Chandler Boulevard near 44th Street and 35th Street, as well as Ray Road and 50th Street.

Phoenix police later said the signs were also lined with razor blades. The signs had messages referring to the Democratic Party and presidential candidate Kamala Harris.

Clear plastic bags containing white powder marked ”biohazard” were reportedly attached to the signs, with messages including, “F*** you!,” “play stupid games win stupid prizes!,” and “guess the poison!”

“He is obviously putting threats out there,” (Deputy Maricopa County Attorney Neha) Bhatia said in court. “He is wanting to scare the population. He is escalating in his violence and the state believes that he is an absolute threat to the community, to any political figures, Democrats specifically.”

Kelly’s attorney argued that some of the allegations were inflammatory, saying that his client is a retired aerospace engineer with a top-secret level clearance and no prior criminal record. Regarding the guns, his attorney said Kelly was a sportsman.

“We will not tolerate attempts to intimidate anyone involved in the process. Those who engage in political violence or try to interfere with elections, or discourage people from participating in the political process, will face serious legal consequences. We will aggressively pursue prosecution to protect our democracy and our democratic process.”

The terrorists were identified based on the documents uncovered in Gaza. “The IDF says it has uncovered documents in the Gaza Strip it claims reveal that six Al Jazeera journalists are operatives in the Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad terror groups,” The Times of Israel reported. “The journalists are named by the IDF as Anas al-Sharif, Alaa Salameh, Hossam Shabat, Ashraf al-Sarraj, Ismail Abu Omar, and Talal al-Arrouqi.”

Some of these Al Jazeera staffers, who enjoyed protection in the Gaza conflict zones due to their press credentials, hold senior positions in Palestinian terrorist organizations. They are operatives in Hamas’s Nukhba Force and Nuseirat Battalion terrorist formations, which spearheaded the October 7 massacre, Israeli media reports confirm.

Excerpt:

A new report from the United Nations reveals that almost 900 medals that should have gone to female athletes have instead been awarded to biological men who believe themselves to be “transgender.”

As reported by Fox News, the report was carried out by Reem Alsalem, the UN Rapporteur on Violence Against Women. The findings were titled “Violence against women and girls in sports.” Alsalem reveals that over 600 athletes failed to receive medals in over 400 competitions across 29 different sports, with the total amount of lost medals being just over 890.

“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,” his report states. The information collected for the study goes up to March 30th of this year.

In the most recent example, the Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA) approved the participation of a male golfer in the most recent tournament, despite 275 female golfers signing onto an open letter denouncing the decision as unfair to women.

 

D.C. Appeals Court Denies Key Jan 6 Defense, Setting Up SCOTUS Showdown– trendingpoliticsnews.com

The D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals has rejected a defense claim used by a January 6 defendant, setting up a likely Supreme Court appeal that could have major implications on a common charge the Biden Department of Justice has used on more than 2,000 protesters. The Biden DOJ has vowed to lock up more than 2,000 protesters — most of whom are charged with common trespassing misdemeanors — by January 2026. The department has continued to make arrests — generally causing defendants to lose their livelihoods over common trespassing misdemeanors — nearly four years after the minor disturbance while refusing to charge left-wing protesters with the same offenses.

The court decided whether Couy Griffin could argue that he was unaware of “knowingly” breaching a Secret-Service-protected permitter, according to a report from Newsmax. Griffin further argued that the government did not conclusively prove that Griffin was aware of the restrictions at the time of the mass trespassing event.

Feds ran ‘deeply flawed’ COVID messaging campaign, overstated risk to kids, House GOP says
Source Link
Excerpt:

Republicans on the U.S. House Energy and Commerce Committee released a report Wednesday condemning the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) for alleged failures in its COVID-19 messaging campaign.

Researchers behind the report sought to determine why the campaign preceded “a collapse of trust in public health messaging.” That campaign, which received $900 million in funding, was “deeply flawed,” a release on the report claims.

“While the Biden-Harris administration’s public health guidance led to prolonged closures of schools and businesses, the [National Institute of Health] was spending nearly a billion dollars of taxpayer money trying to manipulate Americans with advertisements—sometimes containing erroneous or unproven information,” Committee Chair Cathy McMorris Rodgers, R-Wash., said. “By overpromising what the COVID-19 vaccines could do—in direct contradiction of the FDA’s authorizations—and over emphasizing the virus’s risk to children and young adults, the Biden-Harris administration caused Americans to lose trust in the public health system.”

The report accused HHS of claiming “without evidence” that COVID-19 vaccines were more effective against the disease than they actually are. It also slammed the agency for allegedly overstating the risks of COVID on children and the effectivity of masks against infection.

While serving as California’s attorney general, Vice President Kamala Harris refused to investigate and prosecute an election fraud case involving a suspected Chinese Communist Party spy.

Harris’s refusal to investigate the election tampering and interference scheme was exposed in a report from Breitbart.

Some of those same actors linked to the scheme had reportedly donated to Harris.

However, the report reveals that while serving as California’s top prosecutor, Harris only pursued Republicans for such infractions.

Harris, the Democrat presidential candidate, has tried to use her experience as the California attorney general to her advantage in the 2024 election.

She claims to have helped prevent Russian interference during the 2016 election in the name of ensuring “free and fair and open elections.”

Unfortunately, the reality is shaping up to be much different than her version.

“Ms. Patel’s posts and press reporting surrounding the relationship between the Harris campaign and the Labour Party create a reasonable inference that the Labour Party has made, and the Harris campaign has accepted, illegal foreign national contributions.”

The Trump-Vance campaign has filed a formal complaint with the Federal Elections Commission (FEC) accusing the Labour Party of the United Kingdom and the Harris-Walz campaign of making and accepting illegal foreign national contributions.

Dhillon Law Group filed the complaint Monday on behalf of the Trump campaign, alleging that the British Labour Party made illegal foreign campaign contributions and that the Harris-Walz campaign accepted them. The complaint cites evidence related to Sofia Patel, the Labour Party’s head of operations, and her recent announcement on social media that the party’s current and former staff members would be traveling to US swing states to campaign for Vice President Kamala Harris. At the time of writing the LinkedIn post that has since been deleted, Patel indicated that around 100 staff members had already committed to traveling to the US to knock on doors and promote the Democratic presidential nominee.

Young American men, ages 18-34, are the only demographic in a study of 20 developed countries that has shifted more conservatively in recent years, according to multiple surveys provided in a report from The American Prospect.

The Harvard Youth Poll released in late September showed Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris holding strong support among young women, with a 47-point lead over Donald Trump on issues like climate change and abortion. Among young men, however, her lead was a more modest 17 points.

While restoring Roe v. Wade remains a key issue for Harris, polls indicate that young men are less focused on abortion compared with young women. According to a Survey Center on American Life report, only 45% of men identify as pro-choice, compared with 63% of women.

Maricopa County, AZ Officials say it’s going to take TWO WEEKS after the Election to Tabulate the Votes– wltreport.com

Excerpt:

The most populous county in Arizona confirmed this week that it will likely take at least 11 to 13 days to count all of the ballot cast in next month’s presidential election.

According to county election officials, heavy turnout during this cycle put additional stress on the system, resulting in the likelihood for longer-than-usual tabulation delays.

“We do expect that it will take between 10 and 13 days to complete tabulation of all of the ballots that come in, but we ask for the community’s patience,” Liewer said. “We want to make sure that this is a secure process, but we also want to make sure that it is an accurate process.”

The higher interest in the 2024 election and the fact that the ballot is two pages — an average of 79 contests per ballot — is exactly why officials are encouraging people to vote early, Maricopa County Supervisor Bill Gates said.

More than 2.1 million votes are expected this year and so far, 400,000 people have cast their ballots in Maricopa County.

“We are seeing a little bit of a lag of where we were in 2020 but the last few days we’ve actually seen an uptick in turnout,” Scott Jarrett, Maricopa County elections director, said. “So I am expecting that we will start approaching very close to those 2020 numbers.”

Speaking outside the Naval Observatory on Wednesday, Harris responded to a new story from The Atlantic detailing Donald Trump’s infatuation with dictators, the negative things he has allegedly had to say about members of the armed forces, and the positive remarks he has allegedly made about people like Hitler, all of which he of course denies.

“Yesterday, we learned that Donald Trump’s former chief of staff John Kelly, a retired four-star general, confirmed that while Donald Trump was president, he said he wanted generals like Adolf Hitler had,” Harris told reporters. “Donald Trump said that because he does not want a military that is loyal to the United States Constitution. He wants a military that is loyal to him. He 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. In just the past week, Donald Trump has repeatedly called his fellow Americans the ‘enemy from within’ and even said that he would use the United States military to go after American citizens.”

Excerpt:

In an interview with NBC News on Tuesday, Vice President Kamala Harris lamented America’s divisive politics, arguing that her desire to ‘turn the page’ is really about “closing the page” — whatever that means — on “an era that suggests Americans are divided.”  It’s true that Americans are divided.  Figures in both major political parties and across the political spectrum bear some responsibility for that reality, including both her and her opponent.  Part of the polarization and acrimony is stoked and fueled for cynical purposes.  But a lot of it is simply a reflection of profound differences on policies and values.  Voters have divergent views on what they want the country to look like, what sort of leaders they want to wield power, and what our priorities should be.  Part of the genius of our founding is that America’s system of government was designed to push many important decisions on such matters down to the state and local level, allowing people to shape their communities in alignment with their values.  This allows those disaffected by what’s happening around them to either seek and make change close to home, or have an option to resettle in a community that may be a better fit.

Courts Say People Who Never Lived In MI, NC Can Vote There Anyway– thefederalist.com
Source Link
Excerpt:

Courts in Michigan and North Carolina on Monday rejected separate lawsuits from the Republican National Committee that sought to ensure only individuals who have actually stepped foot in the states can participate in elections there.

The lawsuits, both brought in part by the RNC, took “issue with how the states apply the Uniformed and Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act (UOCAVA), which requires states to allow certain overseas citizens … to register and vote absentee,” as The Federalist previously reported. The lawsuits alleged that election officials in the states are violating their respective constitutions by opening the door for individuals who have never resided in these states to vote there.

In the Michigan case, plaintiffs, including the RNC and the state GOP, specifically challenged what they alleged to be “unlawful instruction” from Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson’s Election Officials Manual which says that “a United States citizen who has never resided in the United States but who has a parent, legal guardian, or spouse who was last domiciled in Michigan” to vote in the state “as long as the citizen has not registered or voted in another state.”

In her ruling on this case, Michigan Court of Claims Judge Sima Patel essentially argued that plaintiffs filed the suit too late. Patel sided with, as she referred to them, the already “busy” election official defendants, suggesting they should not be expected to “create an entirely new process” to separate ballots “issued to members of the subject group who have
never resided in Michigan and remove them before tabulation” in the upcoming election.

In a press release, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton announced troubling findings in his office’s investigation into left-wing fundraising arm ActBlue. Several states have opened investigations into ActBlue after James O’Keefe and other independent investigators uncovered highly questionable donations across the country.

On Monday, Paxton announced that he will sent a Petition for Rulemaking to the Federal Election Commission (FEC) “detailing how suspicious actors appear to be using ActBlue’s political fundraising platform to make a large number of straw political donations.”

In December 2023, Paxton opened an investigation after a number of reporters uncovered dozens of highly suspicious donations. Investigative researcher Parker Thayer, who works with the Capital Research Center, shared a screenshot showing tens-of-thousands of donations allegedly sent by the same Michigan individual.

“A single donor in the small town of Monroe has supposedly donated over 20,000 times since 2019, totaling >$40,000,” Thayer wrote. “They live in a 1,000 sqft house built in 1956.”

“There are dozens more donors like the examples above, and there are two explanations,” Thayer wrote. “1. [ActBlue] is preying on seniors with poor memory by repeatedly sending them requests to sign up for stacking monthly contributions. 2. Some sort of straw-donor scheme is happening.”

Biden-Harris administration ties funding to hiring based on ‘gender,’ ‘race,’ ‘color,’ ‘sexual orientation’

A Department of Education regulation change tying billions of dollars in grant funding to diversity, equity, and inclusion is drawing strong opposition from a former department official and leading Republican lawmaker.

Education Secretary Miguel Cardona recently included the DEI directive in a series of updates to the Education Department General Administrative Regulations, a collection of rules that the department uses for awarding federal grants. The changes went into effect Sept. 30.

Now, the department will tie funding decisions to the applicant’s dedication to hiring “personnel who are members of groups that have historically encountered barriers” due to their “gender; race; ethnicity; color; national origin; disability; age; language; migration; … sexual orientation” and other factors.

The department has an “interest in awarding grants to a diverse and inclusive group of applicants,” it stated in the regulation update.

A complaint submitted to the state’s judicial conduct commission alleges Arizona Supreme Court Justice Clint Bolick violated judicial ethics for vowing to continue “fighting for conservative principles”  at a Republican club meeting

In a formal complaint to the Arizona Commission on Judicial Conduct, Save Our Schools Arizona, a public education advocacy group, cited an article from Politico in which Bolick is quoted as saying he and Justice Kathryn King “check our politics at the door” but said he would continue “fighting for conservative principles.” 

The group claimed the statements violated “several provisions” of the judicial ethics canon.

“The judicial codes of conduct clearly state that judges should aspire at all times to conduct that ensures the greatest possible public confidence in their independence and impartiality,” Beth Lewis, director of Save Our Schools, said. “I think that both independence and impartiality are in question.” 

A committee working to retain Bolick and King dismissed the complaint as merely last-ditch campaign fodder. 

Daniel Scarpinato, spokesperson for Judicial Independence PAC, said it was a “frivolous complaint to try to create more political acrimony in advance of the election.” 

‘We are at breaking point!’ — Rhodes suffers under weight of migrant crisis as locals demand action– rmx.news

The picturesque Greek island of Rhodes is increasingly marred by the presence of illegal immigrants, sparking frustration among local residents who feel neglected by government inaction.

With an excess of more than 700 undocumented migrants above the asylum accommodation capacity limit reportedly settled in the city, many are now living in makeshift camps on sidewalks, in parks, and in cardboard boxes, creating an eyesore in the center of the island’s Old Town.

Manolis Androulakis, president of the South Dodecanese Police Officers Union, expressed the growing despair among law enforcement, stating, “The situation is at a breaking point. The police services are in danger of being disbanded. For an escort from Rhodes to other areas of the country, it takes us even 20 days!”

His remarks underline a broader sentiment that local police are overwhelmed and under-resourced in addressing the immigration crisis and concerns expressed to the government in Athens have fallen upon deaf ears.

A blockbuster New York Times report said that researchers trying to prove the effectiveness of puberty blockers refused to publish the results when they did not suit their political agenda.

The study was conducted by Johanna Olson-Kennedy, who is described as an “influential doctor and advocate of adolescent gender treatments” and who, with her colleagues at the Los Angeles Children’s Hospital, received millions of dollars in 2015 to document medical treatments for transgender youth, according to the Times.

‘I understand the fear about it being weaponized, but it’s really important to get the science out there.’
