- A new report out of the Netherlands confirmed what experts have long known: that most minors (74%) who identify as transgender or suffer gender dysphoria will naturally reconcile with their bodies by adulthood.
- This new study comes just weeks after researchers in Finland found that transgender hormone injections and surgeries do not reduce the likelihood of suicide for people diagnosed with gender dysphoria.
- That weakens the rhetorical question that radical gender activists pose to parents: “Would you rather have a living daughter or a dead son.”
- It's time for “gender medicine” to be relegated to the same category of health benefits as eugenics and lobotomies.

- Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas recently admitted that over 85% of the aliens caught crossing into the U.S. illegally are being released.
- Welcoming “guests” is what the Department of Homeland Security wants more money out of Congress for—not for border security or deportation, but for bringing illegal aliens into the country.
- I recently visited San Diego County, where the U.S.-Mexico border wall runs right into the Pacific Ocean. What I saw is a microcosm of what’s going on across all U.S. borders.
- Single adult illegal immigrants in San Diego are released at several spots after minimal screening. Some of the aliens let off the bus were wearing GPS monitoring devices on their ankles.
- Among those released at the border are millions of economic migrants, thousands of criminals, and a handful of terrorists.

- Presidents used to appoint diplomats to defend the interests of the United States and the public against foreign adversaries. Today, you have President Joe Biden’s appointees, who want to demolish the society they purport to represent.
- The adoption of DEI peaked in the tumultuous summer of 2020, when U.S. cities were rocked by hundreds of riots led by Black Lives Matter, an organization founded by Marxists intent on upending American society.
- The violence intimidated the gatekeepers of our cultural institutions into accepting deep cultural transformation, and thus, the surge of DEI.
- The evidence is piling up that DEI does not work — i.e., it does not translate into higher profits or other better outcomes.
- Undeterred by popular antagonism, the Biden administration marches on to the DEI beat with the appointment of Carr Johnson at the State Department.
