Democrat blasts 'dangerous' view kids safest married couple - TheBlaze

South Dakota state Rep. Erin Healy, a Democrat, described the notion that children are safest in a family with a married mother and father as a "dangerous and un-American belief."

"Extremist group Family Heritage Alliance said this morning that the safest place for kids are in families that have a married mom and dad. What a dangerous and un-American belief," Healy tweeted on Monday.

Family Heritage Alliance's website indicates that the group wants "South Dakota be a state where God is honored, religious freedom flourishes, families thrive, and life is valued."

Healy lamented the failure of a measure to redefine marriage as between two people, rather than between a man and a woman. She retweeted a post in which a reporter said that the state House Affairs Committee had killed the bill in a 7-5 vote.

Where Is This "Climate Crisis" That Activists Keep Talking About? | ZeroHedge

Climate change hysteria has been an ongoing point of social contention since at least the 1980s. For the past 40 years, western countries have been relentlessly bombarded with global warming propaganda and predictions of an environmental cataclysm. Many people spent their formative childhoods and school years being indoctrinated with tales of oblivion - A world in which the oceans rise hundreds of feet and land masses are swallowed by the waves. A world in which exponentially rising temperatures create havoc with the weather as millions die from hurricanes, tornadoes, flooding and drought.

Teacher fired for refusing to conceal students' gender transitions from parents: 'I realized that I couldn't be a Christian and a teacher' - TheBlaze

"Based on your religious beliefs, you cannot be dishonest with parents ... If asked about a student's gender identity by a parent, you cannot refer the parent to a counselor, defer the inquiry and suggest they speak with a student ..., or otherwise deflect the parent's inquiry," the letter stated.

"The district cannot accommodate your religious beliefs that ... prohibit you from maintaining a student's gender identity and refraining from disclosing a student's gender identity from his/her/their parent(s)/guardians," the letter continued.

'Male,' 'female' should be replaced with 'sperm-producing,' 'egg-producing' to be 'inclusive,' scientists say - TheBlaze

Researchers from the United States and Canada suggested that scientists should stop using "harmful" terminology and instead adopt more "inclusive and precise" language, including replacing terms such as "male" and "female" with "sperm-producing" and "egg-producing," the New York Post reported.

A group of scientists with the Ecology and Evolutionary Biology Language Project recently published a paper in the Trends in Ecology and Evolution journal recommending more "inclusive terminology in ecology and evolution" to combat the "ongoing marginalization of many groups."

The group's website lists 24 so-called "harmful terms" that should be banned from the scientific community, including "man," "woman," "mother," "father," "primitive," and "invasive."

According to the scientists, "primitive" and "invasive" are "used derogatorily towards humans or human practices, and also scientifically inaccurate as implies an evolutionary hierarchy."

The researchers claimed that the phrase "survival of the fittest" is also "harmful" because it is linked to "eugenics, ableism and social Darwinism."

Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;

Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;

Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth.

Grocery Chain Lidl Announces Plans To Totally Remove All Meat Products From Their Stores – winepressnews.com

The Germany grocery store giant Lidl recently announced that they will begin the process of removing all meat products from their locations over the next several years, claiming to help hit emissions goals to help the climate. Lidl also has a number of locations along the East coast of the United States.

Lidl’s chief buyer Christoph Graf revealed these coming changes at Berlin’s International Green Week in January. He told the German food publication Lebensmittel Zeitung that food resources need to be better managed and that includes reducing the amount of meat people consume.
We need a more conscious diet all over the world to feed ourselves within our planetary limits.

Outrageous! Australian Mother Denied Life-Saving Heart Surgery Because She's Unvaccinated (VIDEO)

A mother of two from Victoria, Australia was denied the chance to undergo a lifesaving heart transplant because she refused to receive the COVID-19 shot, despite having a medical exemption.

On Sunday, Vicki Derderian and her husband John, appeared on Karl Stefanovic’s Today Show on Channel Nine to address how the government and doctors had denied her access to life-saving treatment.

After suffering heart failure in 2020, Vicki Derderian was forced to rely on a Ventricular Assist Device (VAD) in order to keep blood circulating throughout her body.

“Back in 2020, I had a very severe heart failure, which at the time my organs started shutting down. So I wasn’t ready for a transplant back then. So the only choice for me at that time was to go on a ventricular assist device, which is a mechanical pump that pumps blood throughout the body because my heart couldn’t,” Derderian told Channel 9’s Today Show.

It's Getting Harder To Live Without A Smartphone. That's A Problem

“I’m suddenly surrounded by QR codes. There are now Airbnb doors I can’t open, cars I can’t start, menus I can’t read. Paper menus have vanished; ordering food has become an ordeal,” Jen Wasserstein, an immigration lawyer in Spain, writes for The Guardian. Her column describes the shame she endures as an iPhone-less individual for simply asking for directions or boarding a flight. She uses a flip phone to make important calls.

Hungary and Poland Oppose EU Initiative to Impose Same-sex Parenthood on Member States - The New American

Hungary and Poland declared that they were planning to veto an initiative by the European Union (EU) Commission that could possibly coerce all member states to acknowledge surrogacy and same-sex marriage through a “European parenthood certificate.”

The EU initiative stated that its aim was “to ensure that parenthood, as established in one EU country, is recognised across the EU, so that children maintain their rights in cross-border situations, in particular when their families travel or move within the EU.”

Biden's IRS Commissioner Promises To Audit More White People

It was bad enough that Biden just infused nearly $100 billion into an agency despised by anyone trying to make an honest living — we’re the ones most likely to be harassed by it — but now it comes with the added insult of “equity,” a term that should be greeted like a real pandemic. Draw the blinds, close the shutters, and lock the doors.

Daniel Werfel, who is likely to be the next IRS commissioner, made the commitment during his congressional testimony on Wednesday after Stanford University published a study claiming that black taxpayers are disproportionately hit with audits. As with every other law or policy that supposedly “disproportionately impacts communities of color” (ie. rules meant to keep everyone safe and everything fair from ne’er-do-wells), this is B.S.

California school district excludes white employees from social event | Washington Examiner

A San Francisco-area school district hosted a social event for employees of color, adding that white colleagues were not to be included due to uneasiness and mistrust.

The Acalanes Union High School District in Contra Costa County hosted the event on Feb. 8 to welcome the new year, according to an email that was shared with Fox News.

"Hello POCC staff, we are ready for our first coming together in 2023," the email said. "We are looking forward to seeing our people of color in the district. Please invite any employee of color to this event."

It was written by Lynna McPhatter-Harris, director of Student Support Equity & Inclusion for the district. She added: "Be reminded that we have avoided inviting people that are not of color as there remains feelings of uneasiness and mistrust and we need this to be a safe space for our people of color. Please reach out to me if you have any questions or concerns."

Hungary will have a color revolution, probably this summer or fall. Russia will be allowed to invade Poland, or at least attack it to give pretense for current government to be removed.

Leaked ATF Documents Reveal The Biden Regime's Scheme To Close Gun Stores Across The Country | The Gateway Pundit

The Biden regime has opened a new front in their war on law-abiding gun owners. Leaked ATF documents reveal the Regime plans to shut down gun stores across America by pursuing a “zero tolerance” policy for revoking federal firearm licenses (FFL).

Gun Owners Of America obtained these documents earlier this month which show the ATF updated its federal firearms license inspection guidance in January 2022. The Biden regime previously announced in July 2021 that they would be updating the guidelines established under the Trump administration.

The new guidelines state the “ATF must establish willfulness” to proceed with cancelling licenses, but the agency “does not have to establish a history of prior violations to determine willfulness.” Furthermore, revocation of the FFL’s license “is the assumed action” with violations.

Once FFLs are revoked, these records are added to the ATF’s digital gun registry which has nearly a billion gun and gun owner records. The new guidance greatly expands the Regime’s ability to criminalize law-abiding Americans and enact a backdoor national firearms ban.

"Do Your Non-Uniformed Guys Have Any Identifiers" - SHOCKING Capitol Police Video Uncovered from Jan 6 Shows Undercover and Armed DOJ Onsite - IT WAS A SETUP | The Gateway Pundit

Videos released hours ago on Twitter show multiple examples of undercover federal agents at the Capitol on Jan 6.

Now, there is even more evidence showing the extent of the presence of undercover federal agents at the US Capitol on Jan 6.

In the first video, released by FreeStateWill on Twitter hours ago, two officers are shown following Ashli Babbitt into the Capitol. Officer 2 reiterates his belief that someone was going to get shot. Then they join in chanting, “Whose house? Our house!”

In the second tweet in the thread, public video shows government agents, yet the US government continues to hide videos of these officers.

Biden Gives Power to Susan Rice for Sweeping "Racial Equity" Makeover of the Federal Government: "Agency Equity Teams" to Be Established to Run All Departments, Reeducate Workers | The Gateway Pundit

Joe Biden has appointed Susan Rice to be the chair of the new “White House Steering Committee on Equity” to conduct a sweeping “racial equity” progressive makeover of the federal government with the establishment of “Agency Equity Teams” in all departments that answer to Rice. Biden issued an executive order on Thursday titled, “Executive Order on Further Advancing Racial Equity and Support for Underserved Communities Through The Federal Government.”

The Agency Equity Teams will have power and funding to transform the federal government by “Delivering Equitable Outcomes Through Government Policies, Programs, and Activities.” Every year agencies will submit an “Equity Action Plan” to the White House Steering Committee on Equity chaired by Rice. Also, “each Agency Equity Team shall support continued equity training and equity leadership development for staff across all levels of the agency’s workforce.”

END OF AMERICAN SOVEREIGNTY: Biden Regime Negotiates "Legally Binding" Deal To Give Chinese-Backed World Health Organization Full Authority Over US Pandemic Policies - No Senate Approval Needed | The Gateway Pundit

The Biden Regime never fails to orchestrate an avenue to circumvent the U.S. Constitution and betray the American people. A bombshell report from the Epoch Times Saturday reveals the Regime is about to surrender America’s sovereignty to the World Health Organization (WHO) and give them full control over future pandemic policy.

The Gateway Pundit has reported extensively on these negotiations between the Regime and the WHO over the past year.

TGP’s Alicia Powe, for example, exclusively revealed that Biden’s Health and Human Service Department secretly submitted proposed amendments, “Strengthen WHO preparedness for and response to health emergencies,” to the WHO to reform International Health Regulations of 2005, an existing health treaty.

The amendments delegate the international body of unelected bureaucrats more authority to define what constitutes a pandemic, when a pandemic is in progress, how long a pandemic lasts and how “to prevent, detect and respond to future public health emergencies of international concern,” ultimately delegating the WHO total authority over emergency operations in the U.S. during a “public health emergency.”
