The photos that will stop you in your tracks: As more states seek ban on trans women competing in women’s sports, experts insist the ‘undeniable’ physical advantage CAN’T be undone by gender-affirming care
- The hugely divisive issue of trans participation in sport returned to the spotlight after a school girls’ team won a state title with help from a trans girl
- It’s the latest flashpoint in the debate that was thrust into the mainstream when trans swimmer Lia Thomas became an NCAA champion in March 2022

The incendiary issue of transgender participation in sports returned to the fore this week after a high school girls’ team won a state championship with help from a biological male. Olympic medalists were among critics who joined the backlash to Chloe Barnes’ role in Brookline High School’s victory in Massachusetts . Barnes is a junior who competed under rules that allow students to ‘participate in a manner consistent with their gender identity’. This is just the latest flashpoint in the debate that was thrust into the mainstream when trans swimmer Lia Thomas became an NCAA champion in March 2022. Supporters of inclusion claim fairness can be maintained when biological males compete against women, while opponents that argue women’s sports must be protected face accusations of transphobia. But cut through the often toxic political mudslinging that dominates the debate and, according to researchers and elite athletes, the science speaks for itself: trans women have a physical advantage over biological females – and no treatment exists which can unravel that.

Officers have described the utter relief after they battled to save an unconscious three-year-old boy who was trapped in his car seat and completely submerged by water for three minutes before he was rescued and revived with CPR by the police.
The child was trapped in his seat after the car had plunged into a canal following a car crash, according to the Miami-Dade Police Department in Florida, which was called to the rescue.
Despite ‘heroic efforts’, the driver was unable to get the boy out of the car, even after good Samaritans saw the accident and tried to help.

Not sure if I would have the huevos muchos grande to dive into a murky Florida canal. I’d be thinking aligator. But evidently this man proved his courage and saved a life. “Whoever Saves a Life Saves the World” is well know in both Jewish and Islamic writings.
“Men are expendable; women and children are not. A tribe or a nation can lose a high percentage of its men and still pick up the pieces and go on … as long as the women and children are saved. But if you fail to save the women and children, you’ve had it, you’re done, you’re through! You join Tyrannosaurus Rex, one more breed that bilged its final test.” — The Pragmatics of Patriotism (1973) from Heinlein’s address at the U.S. Naval Academy (5 April 1973)

Iran’s foreign minister could not stop smirking as he was grilled about his country’s record on women’s rights in a combative interview with CNN’s Christiane Amanpour on Wednesday.
Hossein Amirabdollahian told the host ‘this is not the way to conduct an interview’ after he insisted women in Iran had ‘all the necessary, required freedoms’ and accused Western media of fueling protests there.
It comes just two days after diplomats walked out of a speech given by the Iranian minister to the UN’s Human Rights Council in Geneva.

Sad to say, there’s not much that we can do to convince these men that they are wrong in their world view of women, women’s rights, and their role. As a little L libertarian, I can’t solve the world’s problems. BUT, (and there is always a BIG butt), we can “help” them understand the issues. How about we make all their men PNG and they have to stay confined to their cesspool until they fix the issue. And, they shouldn’t have a role in UN “Human Rights” proceedings!

Residents of a small town in Ohio fear for their health and safety after huge clouds of toxic chemicals were released in a controlled explosion following a train derailment earlier this month.
About 50 cars, including 10 carrying hazardous materials, derailed in a fiery crash in East Palestine at about 9pm on Friday, February 3.
Homes within a one-mile area were soon evacuated as vinyl chloride was slowly released from five of those cars. Authorities then ignited the gases for a ‘controlled release’ of the highly flammable, toxic chemicals in a controlled environment, creating a dark plume of smoke seen miles away.
*** end quote ***
I point to my personal “EXHIBIT #1” of Christie Todd Wittman, the head of the EPA, assuring us that the air around the 911 site was safe to breathe.
I wouldn’t believe any Gooferment assurances about safety,
Where are the Ohio Senators and Representatives? The Ohio governor, all their politicians, and bureaucrats?
Any wagers that they are not down there breathing that “air”?

‘Humiliated’ New Jersey teenager Adriana Kuch killed herself after being taunted with texts from the bullies who beat her in the school halls, her father has told DailyMail.com.
Adriana, 14, took her own life in her bedroom at her family home in Berkeley Township, New Jersey, on February 3.
Hours beforehand, she had received a taunting text message from one of the girls who filmed the attack, making fun of her for ‘dripping’ blood on the floor, and being ‘whooped’.
*** end quote ***
Reportedly the school didn’t call the police.
If I was the parent, I’d have called the police and confronted the juveniles involved. I might be the one getting arrested.
At the very least, my child would NOT be returning to that school. There must have been a relative who could have hosted her in a new school district.
This I see as one of the problems of Gooferment Skrules. The parent doesn’t control the flow of money as happens in every kind of free market exchange. No service; no money. Try that with any Gooferment”service”!
Bottom line: this is an outrageous incident that just should not have happened.

For years, big tech companies like Apple and Tesla have assured the customers of their glossy stores and showrooms that all their goods are ethically sourced and sold.
But a new series of images taken from inside mines in the Democratic Republic of Congo, where 90 percent of the world’s cobalt is mined and used to make the batteries that power our tech-led lives, raise uncomfortable questions.
Cobalt is the chemical element found in almost every tech gadget that uses a lithium-powered battery on the market today – a smartphone, tablet or laptop requires a few grams of it, while an electric vehicle requires 10kg.

Police investigating allegations a farmer in Iowa murdered up to 70 women and dumped their bodies in a well are testing soil at the property in Iowa.
Lucy Studey McKiddy, 53, claims that her father, Donald Dean Studey, was a serial killer who forced her and her siblings to dump the bodies of women he killed into a 100ft well.
She said that Studey, who died in March 2013 aged 75, was ‘routinely drunk’ and liked to kill women by smashing or kicking in their heads inside a trailer.
*** end quote ***
My first thought was didn’t someone in Iowa notice that 70 women disappeared.
My second thought was why didn’t Lucy Studey McKiddy come forward sooner — 2013 might have been a good time if she was afraid of the 75 year old man. Sometime between now and the last 40! Years would have been better.
Of course, it’s the Gooferment’s fault for not discovering this sooner or allow women to defend themselves with a handgun. If I had a daughter, then I’d be sure that she knew how to defend herself. Argh!
Of course, if prostitution was legal, then it would not be so easy for men to pickup and kill women.
End victimless crimes like drugs and prostitution. We’d all be safer.

Virginia Cobb’s group, Family Foundation of Virginia, intended to dine on November 30 at Metzger Bar and Butchery in Richmond, Virginia – a German-themed restaurant co-owned by TV chef Brittanny Anderson of Top Chef and Chopped.
Yet 90 minutes before their reservation, a staff member called someone on Cobb’s team to say they were no longer welcome – forcing them to scramble to find an alternative venue for the 15-20 people to gather.

I do have a problem when the Gooferment gets involved. Hence some discrimination it politically incorrect and gets punished. Other peolitically correct discrimination goes under the radar.
Perhaps, “We, The Sheeple” might want to use the “invisible hand” of the marketplace to weigh in on the decision.

Nearly three quarters of Americans say they want a maximum age limit for elected officials, with roughly equal numbers of Republicans and Democrats agreeing to nudge elderly politicians into retirement, a new poll shows.
Overall, 73 percent of more than 2,000 adults surveyed by YouGov called for age limits. Among them, the most popular age to pension off officials was 70, favored by 40 percent of respondents.
The survey comes at a particularly elderly period in U.S. political life, led by such Democrats as 79-year-old President Joe Biden and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, 82, and the top Senate Republican Mitch McConnell, 80.

The attack saw the lives of Surrett and another army vet, aged 84, snuffed out, after a 20-year-old gunman armed with an AR-15 stormed the Central Oregon store Sunday night, before ultimately taking his own life.

‘Arizona has had enough,’ tweeted Doug Ducey, the Republican governor of the state, who is up for re-election in November.
‘We can’t wait any longer. The Biden administration’s lack of urgency on border security is a dereliction of duty.’

The messages were allegedly erased after the inspector general’s office asked the law enforcement office for electronic communications as part of its probe into the US Capitol attack. The letter, first obtained by CNN, is addressed to the top members of the House and Senate Homeland Security Committees. It states that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) told its watchdog the messages were deleted ‘as part of a device-replacement program.’ The inspector general also accuses DHS employees of stonewalling requests for information until they were reviewed by the department’s lawyers. ‘This review led to weeks-long delays in [the inspector general’s office] obtaining records and created confusion over whether all records had been produced,’ the letter states.

Isn’t that convenient?
Who is getting charged or fire over the failure to retain Gooferment records?
I’d fire everyone in charge.
But then that’s how it’s done on Wall Street!

A 20-year-old Chicago man is being celebrated as a hero after he leaped into action to save the life of a man who fell on the subway’s potentially deadly third electrified rail.
Anthony Perry, 20, was honored in a ceremony on Wednesday by a local community leader who awarded him a new car for his heroism.
Perry told WGN TV about the moment he saved the man’s life: ‘I don’t think I was thinking about what could happen to me at the moment. It was more of what do I have to do to make the situation peaceful. I felt a little shock. I felt it all over my body actually, and then I just didn’t let that stop me.’
*** end quote ***
Great love hath no man …
Call it “courage” (the ability to do something that frightens one), “bravery” (showing mental or moral strength to face danger, fear, or difficulty), or “nerve” (presumptuous audacity). Whatever you want to label it, this man risked his own life to save another.
Like always, everyone else just stood around frozen or videoing. But then there are some, who some how some way, act! Perhaps, not thinking but just reacting to do the “right thing”.
After all the bad press about Chicago and killings, Perry said: ‘Good does win. Good always wins.’
Hope I can save a life sometime.

Three Michigan State University students have been charged over the hazing death of a teenager who died last year from acute alcohol intoxication after being found passed out in his frat house covered in vomit and urine.
Phat Nguyen, 21, died in November after a brutal night of drinking at the Pi Alpha Phi off-campus fraternity house in East Lansing, Michigan.
Ethan Cao, Hoang Pham, and Andrew Nguyen were all charged with one count each of felony hazing resulting in death, and three misdemeanor counts of hazing resulting in physical injury for three other boys who were also taken to the hospital on the night of the incident but who survived.

Sorry, but there ought to be a law. Your fraternity “hazes”; your frat is dead!
It’s a Gooferment Skrule, so by extension it is permitting this to happen under its auspices.
Maybe MSU should do penance by suspending all student activities for four years?
At the very least, the MSU administration should be fired for “failure to supervise” and “loss of confidence in their ability to lead a University.”

Simple question: What was his Covid vaccine status?
Harder question: Did anyone DEMAND an autopsy?

This should be put in the grave with a wooden stake, a garlic necklace, and blessing of holy water. Same for any of the politicians and bureaucrats who think this is a good idea. It should be a “third rail issue”.
Argh!
