by Ben Johnson
Elections have consequences. No one understands that better than Jeff Younger, whose wife began claiming their son identified as a girl, won custody, and started administering puberty blockers. Thanks to a new executive order defunding and threatening to prosecute anyone who carries out transgender procedures on a minor, hospitals nationwide have shut down their pediatric gender facilities - spurring a prominent Democrat to insist they must continue pushing transgender treatments or she will prosecute them.

Johnson on Juggling His Party's Personalities: 'There's No Room for Nonsense'
by Suzanne Bowdey
While Donald Trump is doing an impressive job getting his agenda off the ground by himself, at some point, he's going to need Congress to stop huddling and get in the game. Apart from some easier legislative lifts - like the Laken Riley Act - there's a lot of pressure on the House and Senate to start delivering some concrete wins on the president's agenda. That's a complicated prospect when Republicans can't decide how to get the legislation moving - let alone what should go in it.

by S.A. McCarthy
President Donald Trump is imposing hefty tariffs on countries involved in trafficking drugs and illegal immigrants into America in what's being billed as a trade war.

He clarified, "This was done through the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) because of the major threat of illegal aliens and deadly drugs killing our Citizens, including fentanyl."

A Message from Canada on Why Marriage Matters
by Chuck Donovan
If North America feels like a game of Risk these days, it may be more than just an entertaining distraction. In recent weeks, President Trump has talked of making Canada the 51st American state. To date, it appears that no one on the Canadian side of the border has speculated about making the United States the 11th Canadian Province. At today's news rate, however, that might change soon. In the meantime, Canada and the U.S. certainly have interests and trends in common, some of which may be discomfiting to talk about. One of them is the state of marriage in two adjacent cultures under a variety of old and new stresses.

Trump's DHS Secretary Tours Southern Border amid Immigration Crackdown
by S.A. McCarthy
After four years of a border czar who failed to address the crisis at America's southern border, President Donald Trump's administration is tackling the issue personally. On Sunday, Trump's Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Kristi Noem visited the U.S.-Mexico border along with Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agents.

She said that under Trump's presidency, "the days of open borders are over."

Trump Puts an End to 'Preferred Pronoun' Use in Federal Emails: 'A Return to Sanity'
by Sarah Holliday
Last week, President Trump "directed all federal agencies to remove pronouns from employee email signatures," The Christian Post reported. "He also instructed departments to disable any email features that prompt or display pronouns, reinforcing his administration's recognition that only two biological sexes exist." In addition to this, "Officials were also told to end any federally supported contracts, grants or programs that involve what the memo described as gender ideology. Agency heads were ordered to place employees working on such initiatives on paid administrative leave and to review all related materials." Trump even went a step further to ensure further clarity by requiring the word "gender" found in any government documents to be changed to the word "sex."

by Sarah Holliday
Meta, the parent company of Facebook, recently became one of the many organizations scrapping their diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies. According to Breitbart, part of this move "back toward the lane of sanity" also included CEO Mark Zuckerburg's executive decision to remove tampons from the men's bathrooms in the Silicon Valley, Texas, and New York offices. The outlet added that these were "previously provided ... for nonbinary and transgender employees who [used] the men's room but [required] sanitary pads because they are women."
