Theordore DeBlasio was awarded $670,000 in his lawsuit against New Jersey’s Essex County. He sued the county after he was fired for refusing to get the Covid-19 vaccine. He applied for a religious exemption, but the county refused his appeal. While he was being denied a religious exemption, Muslims in the county were not.

A New Jersey jury just delivered a message that the Democrat machine in Essex County did not want to hear.

On Friday, an Essex County jury returned a unanimous 8–0 verdict for Theodore “Teddy” DeBlasio, a longtime groundskeeper at Essex County Hospital Center who was fired after the county denied his religious exemption from the COVID-19 vaccine mandate.

The panel awarded him more than $670,000 for economic and emotional harm. Attorneys’ fees are still to come. Punitive damages are next.

Attorney John D. Coyle of Coyle Law Group called it New Jersey’s first jury verdict in a COVID-19 religious exemption case.

DeBlasio, raised Catholic and now a Christian, objected to taking a shot tested or developed using aborted fetal cell lines. That is a sincerely held religious belief millions of Americans share. Essex County treated it like a punchline.

According to trial evidence cited by Coyle Law Group, in February 2022 the county denied every religious exemption request submitted by Christian and Catholic employees, and approved every request submitted by Muslim employees.

The city of Los Angeles is now reporting an outbreak of the disease Typhus. It is connected to fleas on rats which are flourishing in the city’s numerous homeless encampments.

California has the highest tax rate in the country. Why? What do people get for paying such high taxes? They get preventable diseases because their leaders are worthless.

There’s really no excuse for this at all.

Flea-borne typhus rising in LA County with latest case reported in Wilshire Center

Typhus, a flea-borne bacterial disease, is on the rise in Los Angeles County, with the latest localized case reported in the Wilshire Center neighborhood, public health officials said Tuesday.

The disease is spread to humans by infected fleas that commonly live on rats, opossums, stray cats and other animals. Common symptoms include headaches, chills, muscle aches and rash.

The Wilshire Center case is the second localized typhus outbreak this year, according to the LA County Department of Public Health.

There were at least seven symptomatic cases linked to the outbreak, health officials said. Six of the seven patients had to be hospitalized at one point. All have recovered, the department said.

So far this year, 109 flea-borne typhus cases have been reported in Los Angeles County.

Vice President JD Vance announced 750,000 fraudulent Obamacare accounts have been removed from the rolls, saving taxpayers $2.2 billion yearly. “We’re actually making sure that the people receiving Obamacare subsidies are actually entitled to receive them,” Vance declared.

EXCERPT:

The Trump administration is canceling Affordable Care Act enrollments covering more than 760,000 people as part of a sweeping effort to combat fraud and improper taxpayer-funded subsidies.

Vice President JD Vance said Tuesday that approximately 315,000 enrollments covering more than 760,000 individuals were canceled after officials determined they were unauthorized. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services estimates the action will return roughly $2.2 billion in taxpayer-funded subsidies.

“We’re actually making sure that the people receiving Obamacare subsidies are actually entitled to receive them,” Vance said.

The administration also plans additional eligibility verification for hundreds of thousands of other enrollments and has imposed a six-month suspension on new agents and brokers signing people up for coverage.

The crackdown follows evidence that vulnerabilities exist in the ACA marketplace. A Government Accountability Office investigation using fictitious applicants found the federal marketplace approved subsidized coverage for nearly all of its fake applicants during testing for the 2024 and 2025 plan years. GAO cautioned that its undercover testing was illustrative and could not be generalized to the entire ACA enrollment population.

The biggest surgery in the history of Obamacare is about to amputate more than $2 billion in fraud.

The White House Task Force to Eliminate Fraud, led by Vice President J.D. Vance, is cutting 760,000 individual accounts that are on the Affordable Care Act’s books,  administration officials said, according to The Wall Street Journal.

Vance and Dr. Mehmet Oz, the administrator for the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, estimate canceling those accounts will save taxpayers $2.2 billion.

During the Biden administration, Obamacare enrollment increased from about 10 million people to more than 22 million.

Should Obamacare be ended?

A Department of Health and Human Services report issued this year estimated that nearly half of new Obamacare enrollments during Biden’s time in office were fraudulent.

A newly resurfaced report is making an extraordinary allegation about the CIA, consumer DNA databases and the search for bloodlines that may not be entirely human.

Data Center Boom Could Supercharge Blackouts Nationwide By 2030, Pennsylvania Regulators Warn– dailycaller.com
News Source
EXCERPT:

America’s AI gold rush could soon drive the nation’s largest power grid to blackouts.

Pennsylvania regulators warn that power-hungry facilities are arriving faster than new generation. Pennsylvania could experience as many as 13 loss-of-load events per year by 2030 if more data centers connect than currently anticipated and no new plants come online, Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission (PAPUC) Chairman Stephen DeFrank warned.

DeFrank’s statements are based on a recent PAPUC analysis assessing electricity within the state.

“Pennsylvania is at an energy crossroads,” DeFrank said in a press release. “Data center development brings significant opportunities, but that growth cannot come at the expense of the families and businesses that already depend on reliable and affordable electric service.”

The PAPUC-commissioned analysis found that data centers are a major driver of the tightening power supply across PJM Interconnection, the nation’s largest regional transmission organization. Electricity demand is rising as older power plants shut down and new generation struggles to come online quickly enough, according to the report, which was prepared by Synapse Energy Economics and other consultants.

The analysis modeled several possible futures for the grid. Under its baseline scenario, which uses PJM’s 2026 electricity demand forecast, the grid could experience the equivalent of about 5.9 instances every 10 years in which electricity supply falls short of demand by 2030, according to the report. Researchers said the increase was mainly driven by the large amount of new electricity demand expected from data centers.

New York Magazine recently published the sex diary of a 42-year-old gay dad living outside Boston. He and his “husband,” Gavin, have an infant daughter, Sophie, who was presumably born through paid surrogacy.

At 10 a.m., Dad opens Sniffies, a location-based app used primarily by men seeking anonymous sex.

Over the next seven days, he propositions a married man who initially refuses to show his face. He has sex with that stranger on his infant daughter’s leaf-shaped play mat while her stuffed giraffe knocks against his head. He sends Gavin a photo of himself in a jockstrap, hoping he will leave work early. He ends the week having sex with a police officer at a party up against a washing machine.

One infant. Two gay men. No mother. Welcome to the post-Obergefell family.

From the adult’s side, the diary is supposed to read as naughty, funny, and liberated. From Sophie’s perspective, this isn’t a cheeky account about sexual liberation. It’s a record of her fundamental biological and developmental needs being subordinated to a sex-crazed man.

It’s an insane state of affairs indeed when a state can step in and yank a teenage girl out of her home, can block the girl’s parents and older brother from seeing or speaking with her, all because the family’s faith precludes them from acknowledging her school-prompted “transgender” status and because they refused to call her a boy.

  1. THE FAUCI DIARY

During the Covid-19 pandemic (or plandemic), our governments put party agenda over human life. Relying on the state for critical healthcare has proven to be an existential challenge to humanity.

Editor Paul Gordon Collier wrote in his August 7, 2026, Deep Dive “How the Smartest Man in the World Almost Killed It,” America chose a messianic General willing to play fast and loose with the facts, and willing to hack off body parts to save the whole, so long as those body parts weren’t his. That man was Dr. Anthony Fauci. He was once the center of power in much of the “free world” during the coronavirus plandemic.

“His decisions would not only influence other nations, but America’s inability to be a beacon of liberty in the time of coronavirus had profound effects on the rest of the ‘free world.’ America legitimized tyranny because ‘the smartest man in the world’ said it was the best thing to do.

“His influence in assuring the coronavirus plandemic maintained its emergency status led to the dramatic expansion of mail-in ballots, setting the stage for a 2020 election where more than 70% of the votes were ‘cast’ through the unreliable, unaccountable mass mailer system (which was even less reliable and accountable than the ones we have now).

“This would dramatically change the trajectory of America, from one challenging Chinese power, the International Order, and European elitism, to one that bowed to China, lifted up the International Order, and feted European elites.”

We do not recommend you entirely abandon the mainstream healthcare system, but we do recommend you develop “off-grid” healthcare plans so that if we are ever faced with another coronavirus-like event we can provide for our healthcare needs without having to submit to draconian rules to do so.

Here are three sources to begin your exploration of Off-Grid Healthcare:

  • Nobody Talks About Healthcare Off-Grid – Frugal Off Grid – This will introduce you to the off-grid healthcare concept, and even get you started on how to develop your own plans. It includes a video.
  • Direct Primary Care – Going “Off Grid” With Your Health – Homesteading Family – This article is aimed at people considering going off-grid, or homesteading, but it will help you build your own supplemental off-grid healthcare plan for yourself. Should another plandemic hit, you will be prepared with alternative sources for healthcare.

  1. THE LAND WITH THE AI PRIZE – THE STATE OF AFGHANISTAN

In our August 21, 2026, issue of MIA, we did a Deep Dive on the state of Afghanistan. We wrote, “For most of its existence, Afghanistan has been under the thumb of conquerors who could never quite seal the deal. Its hope of achieving sovereign power in light of the jewels beneath its soil is slim to none, no matter which power, America or China, were to secure access to Afghanistan’s AI prize.

We assess that America as the hegemon will offer greater opportunity for shared flourishing for self-stewarding people than China as hegemon ever would, for China would continue to support the Taliban if they ever broke the factions.

The Islamic State has no allies, for its endgame is world domination, even over China, even over America. The other factions have strong ties to India, Russia, and some to Iran, but all have ties to America and the West as well.

The alliance of China, Russia, and Iran coming out in open support of the Taliban against Pakistan has strained those relations with the factions we featured in our report. Even Pakistan is finding itself gravitating back towards the West as it sees China’s closeness with India and Afghanistan as working against its own interests.

The war with Afghanistan has only accelerated that re-engagement with the West both from Pakistan and the major factions we cover in this report (sans the Islamic State, of course).”

Dependence on Superpower AI for your development, and even your own AI processing power, brings with it the risk we see for Afghanistan, the loss of sovereign, or self-stewarding power. In the case of Afghanistan, this has been their struggle for centuries.

For you, the rise of AI means two things, learning how to work without AI tools, or learning how to effectively use AI tools. For most, the latter is more realistic than the former. For those in the latter group, we recommend you make it a regular habit to utilize multiple AI agents, including open-source AI agents. This will prevent you from becoming too attached or dependent on one AI “voice.” It will also get you overall better results, especially with research.

We utilize multiple AIs during our research process, asking each one the same probing question.

For Afghanistan, their lack of sovereignty will be born from their dependence on a superpower to secure their lands and develop their mineral prizes. For you, AI dependence, especially on superpower AI, is risking becoming propagandized by those same tools.

Here are resources to help you prepare for a world with AI without becoming AI’s tool:

  1. USEFUL LIFE VERSUS SACRED LIFE

In our August 28, 2026, Weekly issue of MIA, Paul Gordon Collier analyzed two separate news stories that both served as bellwethers for the existential cultural divide in America today.

Paul wrote, “It is white progressive women in particular who have served as the frontline assassins of whites, males, heterosexuals, cis-gendered, and white-aligned Americans. Were they to surrender the trans to science, they would lose their savior status and be just another guilty white person in need of accountability.

“The Pink-shirted Ladies of Lindsay are the epitome of this spirit as it moves past childbearing age and settles into empty high-rise apartments. If Lindsay is guilty of murder, so are they, and they know it. Progressive women alone account for more than 57% of abortions, yet they represent less than 1/3 of the female population.

“These aging women have now hit their 40s and 50s, and they have only become more committed to violence as a means of political persuasion. They must, I think, sense a world that comes to see the nature of their murder-justifying lies will soon remove them from power, or worse. At this point, they have everything to lose and nothing to gain if they surrender, for losing means losing everything, and winning is all that matters now.

“They have engaged in decades of child murder and political corporate assassinations, and a world that rejects progressivism will soon not only reject them, but it will also prosecute them. They won’t be prosecuted for murdering the unborn, they will be prosecuted for committing treason, child abuse, and racist, sexist, hetero-phobic discrimination.

“Their habit of evil has caused them to go all in on that same evil, by any means necessary, for the good of their high-rise apartments.

“We are seeing the final desperate push by the white woman progressive army to hold on to their power. They must fight off their victims, the American people, and the disenfranchised classes they’ve ‘served,’ classes now ready to throw their saviors out.”

Our Final Thought in that same issue, by Bill Collier, was about anchoring yourself in times of great ideological uncertainty. What we see here is a fundamental break with basic reality by a significant percentage of our population. This group holds great administrative power in most “American” institutions.

So many of our readers, and their family and friends, find themselves still trapped in institutions controlled by progressives; some are even public-school teachers attempting to preserve some semblance of Americanism in a system increasingly hostile to them.

Bill Collier wrote in his Final Thought, “Becoming aware of your own paradigms, and how they may contrast or align with others, is essential to navigating your path through the uncertainty and chaos we have faced (and will most likely continue to face for the foreseeable future).”

When do we fight defiantly within those institutions and where must you hold your fire?

To understand that question, you must first understand what is most essential to your belief system. To understand that you must understand what your core belief system really is.

Here are some resources that, in total, can give you a starting point for plumblining your own beliefs. From there, you can act more confidently, and with more courage, once you choose to act defiantly against the progressive state.

  • The Plumb Line – New Life – This is an essay about how to plumbline your own belief with scripture. This assumes you have already plumblined your own belief that scripture is your primary source for wisdom.
  • How to Chane Core Beliefs: Evidence-Based Strategies – HealthSpectra – This is a material approach to plumblining belief, so be cautious in how you approach this if you are Christian. Yet even for the Christian, there is practical value contained here, so long as you frame it within the boundaries of God’s Word.
  • How I Discovered My Core Beliefs (And How You Can Find Yours – Dr. Paul McCarthy – This essay points you to therapy, but within it is a good guide for how to identify what your core beliefs are.
  • Own Your beliefs – Under the Ancient Oaks – John Beckett – Christians beware, this is a self-confessed “pagan” writing here. He also uses the word “own,” which we assume is not actually possible for beings of limited understanding. This is why we say, “steward your beliefs,” not own them. Yet, even as God used evil for good through Pharoah and the 10 sons of Jacob who sold their brother into slavery, so too can you find good things in this essay. There are basic principles here that can help you determine what in you is stewarded and what in you has been blindly assumed.

One principle in the last article that is more important than all others is “You don’t have to figure out everything yourself,” which could be amended to include, “nor can you.”

If you remember the early days of Covid-19, you probably remember the confusion just as much as the fear.

One week masks were “not necessary,” the next week they were “strongly recommended.” Guidance changed on travel, testing, quarantine, school closures, and boosters. Some of those changes were totally reasonable because the evidence was changing, while others were about protecting authority, not people.

Be it understood or not, the way it was communicated often made people feel like they were being managed, not informed (because, in part, they were).

And that’s the real takeaway. Covid-19 didn’t just test healthcare systems. It tested trust.

Transparency is not a “nice-to-have” during a public health crisis. It is part of the response. When it’s missing, even good policies get treated like suspicious ones.

Here are the biggest transparency lessons Covid-19 left us with, and why they still matter now.

Transparency is not a “nice-to-have” during a public health crisis. It is part of the response. When it’s missing, even good policies get treated like suspicious ones.

Here are the biggest transparency lessons Covid-19 left us with, and why they still matter now.

1) People can handle uncertainty. They can’t handle spin.

A lot of public messaging tried to sound confident. The intention was probably to keep people calm.

But confident messaging without clear evidence can backfire fast. The moment the guidance changes, people assume someone lied.

A more transparent approach sounds like this:

  • Here’s what we know today.
  • Here’s what we don’t know yet.
  • Here’s what we’re doing to find out.
  • Here’s what would make us change our recommendation.

That style of communication treats adults like adults. It also makes updates feel normal instead of suspicious.

2) “Show your work” builds trust faster than any slogan

During Covid-19, many decisions were presented as final answers, with little visibility into the reasoning.

But people wanted the why, not just the what.

When a government agency recommends a policy, the public shouldn’t need to reverse engineer the logic through press conferences, leaks, or Twitter threads. Publish the evidence summaries. Explain how benefits and harms were weighed. Share the assumptions.

Even better, say what you would do differently if the assumptions are wrong. That one move alone changes the tone from “obey” to “collaborate.”

3) Data transparency beats vibes, every time

A big problem throughout the pandemic was that the data people needed was often late, inconsistent, or hard to compare across regions. In some places, basic metrics were changed midstream without clear explanation. In others, dashboards looked great but hid key details like how “cases” were defined or which tests counted.

Transparent data means:

  • Clear definitions (what exactly is being measured?)
  • Consistent reporting (so trends actually mean something)
  • Open methods (how the numbers were cleaned and calculated)
  • Easy access (so researchers and journalists can sanity-check)

When data is messy, the gap gets filled by rumors. And once the rumor machine starts, it is hard to stop.

4) Conflicts of interest don’t go away. They just go underground.

Covid-19 put a spotlight on how decisions can be questioned when there are real or perceived conflicts, whether that’s pharma relationships, political pressure, or institutional incentives.

The fix is not pretending conflicts don’t exist. The fix is making them visible and manageable.

That looks like:

  • Public disclosure of financial ties and advisory roles
  • Clear rules about who can vote on what
  • Independent review processes that are not just symbolic
  • Meeting notes and rationales that can be audited later

When people think decisions were made behind closed doors, they assume the worst. Transparency doesn’t guarantee agreement, but it lowers the temperature.

5) Transparency has to include the trade-offs, not just the benefits

Some pandemic policies had real downsides: delayed care, mental health impacts, learning loss, economic pressure, isolation, burnout. Even when a policy is the right call, pretending it has no costs makes the messenger look dishonest.

The public doesn’t need perfection. They need honesty.

A transparent message might be:

“This will reduce hospital overload, but it will also cause hardship. Here are the groups most affected. Here’s what we’re doing to reduce harm. Here’s when we will reassess.”

That is how you keep credibility even when the situation is painful.

6) Local trust matters as much as national guidance

One of the most obvious lessons from Covid-19 is that trust is not evenly distributed. People trust their personal doctor more than a distant agency. They trust local community leaders more than national spokespeople. They trust what they can see.

Transparency works better when it is paired with local messengers and local context.

National guidance is important, but it has to be translated honestly for real communities with real constraints. Otherwise, it turns into a compliance problem instead of a public health effort.

7) The next crisis will punish the same blind spots

It’s tempting to treat Covid-19 as a once-in-a-century event and move on.

But the patterns that broke trust will show up again, whether the next threat is a new virus, an environmental disaster, a drug safety scandal, or a sudden health system shock.

If we want to be better next time, transparency can’t be something we improvise during chaos. It has to be built into the system:

  • how data is collected and shared
  • how decisions are documented
  • how uncertainty is communicated
  • how accountability works after the fact

The best time to build trust is before you need it.

What “better transparency” actually looks like going forward

If transparency is the goal, it helps to get specific. Here are a few standards that would have made a huge difference during Covid-19 and would still make a difference now:

This isn’t about making institutions look perfect. It’s about making them believable.

The bigger point

Covid-19 showed us something simple: people will accept tough guidance when they feel respected. They resist when they feel manipulated.

Transparency is respect in action.

And if there’s one good thing we can take from those years, it’s this: the conversation around health transparency is no longer academic. It’s practical. It affects behavior, outcomes, and trust when it matters most.

If you care about public health, research, policy, clinical leadership, or even just how information gets communicated during high-stakes moments, this is the kind of topic worth spending time on, with serious people who are trying to get it right.

Scientists found that DNA once dismissed as “junk” helps chromosomes find their partners |– timesofindia.indiatimes.com
News Source
EXCERPT:

For years, the dense loops of repetitive DNA clustered near the middle of chromosomes were treated as evolutionary clutter. According to the new study published in Nature, titled ‘Meiotic pairing through barcode-like satellite DNA repeats‘, researchers working with fruit flies have shown that this so-called satellite DNA forms a kind of barcode: a unique combination of repeats that lets each chromosome recognise its correct partner during the formation of egg cells. When that barcode is disrupted, chromosomes pair with the wrong partner or fail to pair at all, and the eggs carrying that error are frequently destroyed by the body’s own quality-control system before they can mature. The discovery revives an idea first floated nearly fifty years ago and offers the clearest evidence yet that “junk” DNA plays a direct hand in one of reproduction’s most exacting steps.

Every cell that produces eggs or sperm must first sort its chromosomes into matching pairs, lining up each one with its homologous partner before they exchange genetic material. According to the research team, fruit flies carry at least 19 distinct satellite DNA repeats scattered unevenly across their four chromosome pairs. Because each chromosome pair ends up with its own particular combination of these repeats, the arrangement effectively works as an identifying tag, a barcode built entirely from non-coding sequence.The idea that these repeats might guide pairing was first proposed roughly fifty years ago, but earlier experiments deleting satellite DNA from a single chromosome failed to produce any obvious defects, leading many researchers to dismiss the theory.

Question 1 in Virginia Would Legalize Unlimited Abortions Up to Birth– www.lifenews.com

EXCERPT:

Virginia voters will decide in November whether to write a abortions up to birth into the state constitution. Ballot Question 1 would allow unlimited abortions until a baby is born.

Early in-person voting begins Friday, September 18. A simple majority would adopt or reject the amendment and the result would not return to the General Assembly or the governor.

Olivia Gans Turner, director of the Virginia Society for Human Life, said the proposal is not the modest health-care measure described on the ballot.

“The hard truth is that this amendment is not about protecting women’s safe reproductive care, but merely more political action designed to make abortion up to birth permanently legal in Virginia,” she says.

The states that allow abortion are falling below replacement rates for their populations. The 10 states that allow abortion up to birth are doing the worse, with Vermont being the worst of the worst. They have a total fertility rate of 1.27. The TFR needs to be above 2 to meet replacement requirements.

… The numbers show a fairly uniform correlation between these permissive legal regimes and collapsing birth rates. It’s only logical. Massachusetts’s total fertility rate (TFR) in 2024 was 1.38, more than 33% below replacement-level fertility, with only four states experiencing lower fertility. Of the 10 states with “open seasons” on the unborn, seven are below the current national TFR of 1.62 children per woman. The 10 states have fertility rates between 1.27 (Vermont) and 1.80 (Alaska). None is at replacement level, and all have declined further over the last six years. Overall, the situation offers a bleak picture. It is not that demographers, politicians, and economists are the primary story, philosophizing in their studies about gross national product and “golden eras” going unrealized, it is the personal stories of families not formed and babies never born. Surveys say that the typical woman would like to bear 2.4 children in her lifetime. That is clearly not happening.

“Over the past 25 years, the gap between the number of unmarried and married men ages 20-39 has widened from 2.6 million to a whopping 15 million,” University of Virginia sociology professor Brad Wilcox noted on X.  

Since 2000, the number of unmarried men in that age group rose from 47% from 20.7 million to 30.4 million in 2025 while the number of married men decreased from 18.1 million to 15.4 million.  

Doctors File Lawsuit to Stop Illinois’ New Assisted Suicide Law– www.lifenews.com

For more than 40 years, Dr. Mary Keen Kirchoff has dedicated her career to caring for the most vulnerable—the disabled, the elderly. She became a doctor to heal, not to help her patients die.

Starting on September 12, the State of Illinois will order her to push suicide on her patients.

Illinois’s new assisted suicide law makes three demands of every doctor in the state:

• Tell patients about the “benefits” of ending their own lives—even patients who never asked.

• Refer them to someone willing to help them die.

• Falsify a death certificate to hide what really happened.

At least 2,000 people have died in Congo’s Ebola outbreak, the fastest-growing on record, according to the latest data, as rebel conflict, bad roads and work stoppages over payment issues challenge the urgent response in a remote region.

Government data published overnight into Tuesday showed the outbreak has 4,381 confirmed cases, including 2,011 deaths. Starting from the first confirmed case, the death toll was reached almost three times faster than in the 2014-16 Ebola outbreak in West Africa, the worst on record.

Millions in fraudulent billing for child ‘gender transitions’: Trump admin report– www.lifesitenews.com

WASHINGTON, D.C. (LifeSiteNews) – The U.S. Department of Health & Human Services (HHS) released a report Thursday identifying millions of dollars in insurance claims that billed for underage gender “transition” procedures under false pretenses.

The 64-page report, Wolves in White Coats: How Doctors and Hospitals Pushed and Profited from the Fraud of “Gender Medicine,” examined more than 225 hospitals and health systems nationwide that offer pediatric gender programs by reviewing scientific literature, hospital records, whistleblower accounts, insurance claims, and interviews with patients and their parents.

It found “approximately $50 million in insurance claims for puberty blockers billed using endocrine disorder diagnostic code E34.9 (Endocrine Disorder, Unspecified). It further reported that nearly $11 million in claims for patients ages 13-17 were billed using a diagnosis code for precocious puberty E301 — findings the report said warrant additional review of insurance coding practices,” according to an HHS press release. The report called for greater oversight and review of insurance billing and coding practices as well as further evaluation of “gender medicine” policies.

WNBA Suddenly Needs Time to Evaluate Men Competing, But the League Wasn’t Confused in This Resurfaced Post– www.westernjournal.com

EXCERPT:

As the WNBA tries to fathom what the “W” in their own name stands for, its own past statements on social media are revealing the entity’s biases against their own athletes.

The league was dropped into the middle of the debate over whether men should take away athletic opportunities for women when Indiana Fever star Sophie Cunningham said it was unfair for males to compete against females. A counter-attack erupted within the league as coaches and players fired back by spewing the liberal orthodoxy that mediocre transgender athletes need a place to win awards.

The WNBA’s 2026 collective bargaining agreement says, “only players who are women are eligible to play in the WNBA.”

But there is no definition of women in the policy, and the issue of men playing in the WNBA by saying they identify as female is not discussed.

The WNBA was not allowed to simply let the issue fade after two former male NBA players said they want to be selected in the 2027 draft given the lack of any barriers in the league’s rules.

Buffeted by the winds of controversy, the league sought refuge in the traditional remedies of meetings, task forces, and PR statements.

HHS Official Slams ‘Wolves in White Coats’ Who Transitioned Kids – PJ Media– pjmedia.com

EXCERPT:

A top Trump administration healthcare official has labeled doctors who push children into gender transitions and then abandon them to the devastating consequences “wolves in white coats.”

On August 22, Adm. Brian Christine, assistant secretary for health, went on NTD News and discussed the new Health and Human Services crackdown on fraudulent insurance coding for “sex-rejecting procedures” on minors. There are millions of dollars in the gender transition industry, which is why quite a few woke doctors and medical professionals are happy to encourage it. But when the kids realize they can never be the opposite sex and want to reverse the so-called treatments, the dishonest doctors simply drop them and move on. The surgeries are irreversible, and so is the regret.

Adm. Christine explained that Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s HHS team actually took the time to talk to parents and children who regret the procedures they accepted in pursuit of transgender ideology. Instead of mocking or ignoring detransitioners, the Trump administration is giving them a voice.

“We also heard again and again from these children and their families, is that when they had decided, and and you alluded to this, when they had decided ‘no, I made a mistake. I’ve been led down this path, but …this isn’t right, I want to stop my treatment, and I want to try to detransition and go back.’ They were virtually abandoned by the same wolves in white coats who led them down this pathway, they were abandoned, which, again, is heartbreaking, is heartbreaking to hear.”

TRANS COWS? Why are male cattle suddenly lactating?– www.theblaze.com

EXCERPT:

Most consumers assume that beef is one of the simplest foods on their plate. But what happens before cattle reach the dinner table might be more complex — and worse than you think.

“Even with seemingly healthy foods, they actually can be tainted in a way that could have severe health impacts on us. Like say, take beef,” BlazeTV host Sara Gonzales says.

“Beef is good for you,” she continues, “But then you start thinking about cows and all the hormones that get pumped into the cows that then get passed onto us when we eat beef.”

“And apparently these hormones are having such an adverse effect on these cows that I mean, I guess you could say it in a way that it’s turning some of them trans,” she adds.

In a study from West Texas A&M University, just over 20,000 finished cattle originating from 33 feed lots were examined. Among native steers, 14.55% were lactating. Among dairy cross steers, 19.66% were lactating.

And while those doing the research don’t agree with her, regenerative farmer Mollie Englehart believes that this may have to do with the hormones being pumped into the cows.

Colorado Man Inherits Fortune After Euthanizing Healthy Mother with Plastic Bag– slaynews.com

A Colorado man who suffocated his healthy 91-year-old mother to death by placing a plastic bag over her head has avoided prison with a slap on the wrist and is now set to inherit a fortune from his dead mom’s estate.

Instead of jailing David Norton for his crime, a liberal judge ordered him to donate $25,000 to an organization that promotes “assisted suicide.”

In a cushy plea deal, Norton, 68, pleaded guilty to manslaughter by aiding suicide and tampering with physical evidence after the death of his mother, Mildred Roller.

Norton and his sister, Kim Roller, were accused of conspiring to end the elderly woman’s life.

However, their mother was not terminally ill and had not been declared mentally incompetent.

According to an autopsy reviewed by a grand jury, Mildred Roller died from “asphyxia due to a bag over the head and displacement of oxygen by nitrogen gas.”

It appears that Fauci’s right-hand man may have just given the DoJ the jailhouse keys. All they need to do is measure Anthony for his orange jumpsuit. No, I’m not hallucinating. “Let me tell you a little story about a man named…”

It is now very clear that Saint Anthony sent money to Wuhan to finance the manufacture of the COVID-19 virus. He used cut-outs at the EcoHealth Alliance and the University of North Carolina. He later conspired with others in the virology field to publish an op-ed in the professional literature denying any serious possibility of the virus having been engineered.

His buddies at Pfizer and Moderna buried adverse data. He helped to push the idea that there was no alternative treatment for this supposedly lethal disease, and that the “vaccine” was “safe and effective.” He helped with persecuting medical professionals who dared to challenge his authority and use that horse dewormer. Finally, he made his dangerous drug, Remdesivir, the drug of choice for treating hospitalized COVID patients, because royalties lined his pocket.

None of this is news. Even the release of his diary by Senator Rand Paul isn’t news. But the guilty plea by Dr. David Morens is the news that the drive-by media won’t report. “Who is David Morens?” you ask. Morens was “Senior Advisor” to the short Minister of Propaganda at the NIAID during all this activity. His key action was to act as a conduit for “behind-the-scenes shenanigans” that ran around FOIA requirements.

Abortionists Hate the “Social Disapproval” They Get From Killing Babies– www.lifenews.com

A book released in 2021 (Abortion and Mothering: Research, Stories, and Artistic Expressions) has a chapter by writer Jessica Shaw called “Abortion Providers as Mothers, with Mothers,” where abortionists discuss the stigma and “social disapproval” they feel about committing abortions.

Even Her Friends Don’t Know

One abortionist, identified only as “Kate,” admitted that most people in her life (even many of her close friends) don’t know she performs abortions. She says she has “some very close friends that have no idea what I do. They just think I’m a family physician…[T]hey just have no clue.” (Jackson and Shaw, 57)

Kate doesn’t express any shame that she, herself, feels about being an abortionist, but she acknowledges that there is a stigma about being an abortion provider.

Kate mentions a friend whose father was a Baptist minister. While the friend isn’t “super religious,” Kate decided not to tell her what her job consists of:

I just know that for me to tell her that I provide abortions would shake her quite a bit. I think, “Does it add anything to our relationship? Or does it just put her in an uncomfortable position?” (Jackson and Shaw, 57)

She also expresses concern about how people knowing she’s an abortionist would affect her husband. She says, “I don’t really care about me, but I don’t want my husband’s relationships to be affected by what I do.” (Jackson and Shaw, 57)

Whether she keeps her chosen career a secret for her husband’s sake or her own, few of Kate’s friends know that she’s an abortion doctor. She blames this partly on the fact that there is never a good opportunity to tell them. She says, “[I]t just doesn’t come up in conversation. At what point do you say, ‘Oh, by the way, I perform abortions?’”(Jackson and Shaw, 57)
