Forcing Doctors to Perform Sexual Mutilation

Posted on by

The ideology of Democrats combines authoritarianism with love of depravity. The result is appalling stories like this:

A federal judge ruled Friday that a Catholic hospital in Maryland discriminated against a biological female patient who identifies as a transgender man by refusing to provide her with a hysterectomy.

Jesse Hammons, the transgender patient, was represented by the American Civil Liberties Union in a lawsuit against the University of Maryland Medical System, which operates St. Joseph Medical Center…

The ACLU ostensibly exists to defend liberty. Yet again we see its actual purpose: to help impose tyranny so absolute that doctors are forced to commit crimes against nature in violation of the Hippocratic Oath, their morals, and their faith.

Hammons was told that for ethical and religious purposes, the facility would not disfigure her, so she had it done elsewhere. But the story doesn’t end there.

“This court has determined that undisputed facts establish that, as a matter of law, Defendants discriminated against Plaintiff on the basis of his sex,” District Court Judge Deborah Chasanow wrote in her ruling. She also wrote that the hospital refusing to perform the surgery violated the state’s anti-discrimination laws and that the hospital, which receives Medicare and Medicaid funding, violated a section of the Affordable Care Act.

You can see why Democrats want everyone dependent on federal funds through programs like Medicare, and why they went to such lengths to ram through ObamaCare along party lines.

In December, the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals for the 8th Circuit blocked Biden’s Health and Human Services department from enforcing finalized regulations pertaining to Section 1557 of the Affordable Care Act against several Catholic organizations, according to The Christian Post. The appeals court ruled that the Biden administration cannot force healthcare institutions with religious affiliations to pay for or provide irreversible transgender care, including surgeries. This came after Biden’s HHS’s interpretation of the Affordable Care Act’s Section 1557 deemed that “sex” includes “gender identity.”

However, leftists never relent until they get their way.

Capitol Hill Police Arrest Ashli Babbitt’s Mother

Posted on by

Democrats have created a nascent police state by politicizing and weaponizing federal law enforcement. They aren’t trying to hide it. To intimidate the opposition, they are rubbing it in our faces. Why else would the Capitol Police arrest Ashli Babbitt’s mother on the anniversary of January 6?

Via Daily Wire:

The mother of Ashli Babbitt got arrested at a demonstration near the Capitol exactly two years after her daughter was fatally shot during the Capitol riot.

Video footage posted to Twitter showed Babbitt’s mother, Micki Witthoeft, being escorted by officers into a Capitol Police vehicle on Friday afternoon.

Capitol Police released a statement that said Witthoeft, 58, was arrested on a charge of blocking and obstructing roadways, as well as for allegedly violating a regulation to obey an order. …

Witthoeft was part of a group demonstrating near the Supreme Court in support of people arrested and charged in connection to the riot…

Ostensibly, she was arrested for jaywalking:

It was the Capitol Police that let the supposed “insurrectionists” into the Capitol. Despite liberal establishment lies to the contrary, Ashli Babbitt was the only person killed that day, other than pro-Trump protester Rosanne Boyland, who was accidentally trampled by the crowd.

Babbitt was shot in cold blood by a Capitol Hill police officer to whom she posed no threat. Michael Byrd went on TV to praise himself for the execution, for which he received not so much as a wrist slap.

Ashli Babbitt’s widower Aaron weighs in on Micki Witthoeft’s arrest:

“She’s been there every day living in that area – sitting outside the jail at night and protesting outside the Capitol,” he said.

“So I’m not going to say it’s a coincidence she was finally arrested on January 6, but that doesn’t really smell right.”

January 6 is a special day for left-wing authoritarians, confirming in their minds that all resistance to the Democratic Party is illegitimate and must be crushed by whatever means prove expedient.

Our tax dollars are used to spin this narrative, and not only through the January 6 Committee dog and pony show. Lisa Desjardins is a correspondent for the coercively financed propaganda organ PBS. She advanced her cause by posting this on progressives’ favorite anniversary:

The gullible might come away believing that there had been a bloody battle on the steps of the Capitol. The truth bears repeating: only two people were killed on January 6, both of them women who were Trump supporters.

Arresting the grieving mother of the unarmed woman they killed is not a good look for our federal overlords. Good thing for them they have the media on their side. Imagine the wall-to-wall coverage of Micki Witthoeft’s arrest if the political sides were reversed.

The Crime and Punishment of Jordan Peterson

Posted on by

At first glance, it is hard to see what is so controversial about Jordan Peterson. He is a soft-spoken psychologist who provides common sense self-help advice to young men. His political views are not extreme. However, his refusal to recite “2 + 2 = 5” on orders from the thought police got him kicked off Twitter under its previous ownership. Now, he has been sentenced to reeducation camp for criticizing Canada’s leftist government:

The College of Psychologists of Ontario ordered the best-selling author and Daily Wire+ host to undergo “social media communications retraining” or face a hearing on the potential suspension of his license.

Characteristically,

Peterson vowed not to participate in the process and decried the effort to stifle free speech.

That’s the attitude that got him in trouble in the first place.

Peterson wrote an open letter to Canada’s squishy soft pretty boy despot, Justin Trudeau:

“I simply cannot resign myself to the fact that in my lifetime I am required to resort to a public letter to the leader of my country to point out that political criticism has now become such a crime in Canada that if professionals dare engage in such activity, government-appointed commissars will threaten their livelihood and present them with the spectacle of denouncement and political disgrace,” Peterson wrote. “There is simply and utterly no excuse whatsoever for such a state of affairs in a free country.”

By “free country,” he must mean “soft tyranny.” When soft inevitably transitions to hard, people like Peterson will end up in gulags or face firing squads instead of having their licenses suspended.

His crimes:

Peterson’s latest alleged transgressions include retweeting Conservative Party leader Pierre Poilievre’s criticism of Trudeau, blasting Trudeau’s former senior aide, Gerald Butts, and New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern, tweeting opposition to a plan by Ottawa police to take custody of the children of the Trucker Convoy protesters, and telling Joe Rogan’s podcast audience that acceptance of radical gender theory is a sign of “civilizations collapsing” and that climate change models are unreliable.

Past crimes include pointing out that plus-sized swimsuit model Yumi Nu on the cover of Sports Illustrated for purposes of political correctness is “not beautiful” and that “no amount of authoritarian tolerance is going to change that.”

Styxhexenhammer666 observes that Canada’s thought police are applying a policy employed by repressive regimes like Saddam Hussein’s by trying to force him to pay for the bullet used to execute him. Specifically, he is supposed to pay for his ChiCom-style struggle session:

Regarding Peterson’s crime and punishment, this hits the mark:

“The whole point is to be as arbitrary and as opaque as possible so that they can always nail you.”

That’s why there are no actual laws in Oceania in 1984. It’s why an established sportscaster like Gary Hahn can get indefinitely suspended for saying “illegal alien.”

Feds Investigate School for Removing Filth From Library

Posted on by

In healthier times, providing perverted sexual material to children at school would have constituted a serious scandal. But as we reach end-stage liberalism, removing such materials is literally a federal case.

From the conservative Dallas/Fort Worth suburb Granbury:

“The Office for Civil Rights can confirm that there is an open investigation into Granbury [Independent School District] under Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972,” according to a statement Tuesday from the Education Department. …

Title IX has prohibitions against discriminating on the basis of sex, gender and sexual orientation.

Under Democrat rule, resistance to the LGBT indoctrination of children is considered a violation.

It all started last January when Granbury ISD Superintendent Jeremy Glenn met with librarians to discuss the move to ban books.

To “ban books” is liberalese for removing obscene materials from school library shelves.

“Let’s call it what it is, and I’m cutting to the chase on this, it’s the transgender, LGBTQ and the sex – sexuality in books. That’s what the governor has said he will prosecute people for, and that’s what we’re pulling out,” he said at one point during the closed-door meeting.

Glenn compounded his thoughtcrime with more wrongthink:

“There are two genders. There’s male, and there’s female. And I acknowledge that there are men that think they’re women. And there are women that think they’re men. And again, I don’t have any issues with what people want to believe, but there’s no place for it in our libraries,” he said.

No place for transsexual recruitment in public school libraries! No wonder the ACLU sicced the media and the feds on this Enemy of Democracy.

If the district is found to be violating discrimination laws, it would likely lead to lawsuits and would impact all school districts that have enacted similar book bans.

All things LGBT are at first allowed in the name of tolerance. Then they are mandated and opposition to them banned — also in the name of tolerance.

Biden Blocked on Forcing Doctors to Commit Atrocities

Posted on by

A drawback to attempting rational argumentation with progressives is that often they are not so much wrong as evil. How else would you describe those who want to force Christians to perform abortions and to surgically mutilate children for the sake of sexual depravity? Thankfully they have encountered resistance:

A federal court has dealt a significant blow to the Biden administration’s leftist medical agenda, sparing Christian doctors and religious hospitals from being forced to perform sex change mutilations and abortions in violation of their conscience and better judgment.

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit agreed with a district court’s opinion that the Obamacare mandate requiring facilitation of sex changes posed “irreparable harm” to the plaintiffs’ “exercise of religion.”

The court ultimately found the transsexual mandate unlawful and granted a coalition of Catholic healthcare professionals a permanent injunction. They will no longer face multimillion-dollar penalties for keeping their consciences clear.

Democrats can excuse any extreme of tyranny with the magic word “discrimination”:

Section 1557 [of ObamaCare] prevents federally-funded healthcare programs from discriminating against patients on the basis of sex.

The reason most everything is at least partially federally funded is so that it can be federally controlled by Democrats.

The National Review reported that in recent years, the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services (HHS) has broadened the statute’s definition of sex discrimination to include discrimination on the basis of “termination of pregnancy” and “gender identity.”

Ergo, not to kill inconvenient babies or surgically remove children’s healthy genitals is discrimination. Pick up that scalpel, bigot!

The ruling is welcome, but basing it on religious liberty is a problem. You do not need to belong to a church to understand fundamental differences between right and wrong. What if a doctor wants to refrain from committing crimes against humanity not because he is a Christian, but simply because he is a decent human being? He has no defense from fiends who would force him to commit atrocities.

Ed Markey Menaces Elon Musk

Posted on by

The purpose of the climate crisis hoax is to provide a veneer of ostensibly benevolent intentions. Leftist Senator Ed Markey (D-MA), cosponsor of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s Green New Deal, makes it easy to see through to what lies beneath.

After making many $millions on government-subsidized electric cars, Elon Musk has betrayed the liberal establishment by indicating that he will allow free speech on Twitter. This enrages Markey to the point of letting his mask slip:

Markey demanded answers from Musk about Twitter’s verification process after the Democratic lawmaker colluded with a Washington Post writer to create a Twitter account impersonating him. …

In a letter, Markey demanded answers from Musk for the “haphazard imposition” of changes to Twitter because “[a]llowing an imposter to impersonate a U.S. Senator on Twitter is a serious matter that you need to address promptly.” Of course, Markey failed to disclose in the letter that he gave the Washington Post writer permission to impersonate him.

This is not about impersonation; the purpose is to put a scare into Musk so that he will not allow speech that contradicts the party line. Orwell would have called such speech “thoughtcrime.” Democrats call it “misinformation” or “disinformation.” They don’t have to worry about hearing it from the Washington Post.

Markey then drew attention to his complaint by going on Twitter to accuse Musk of “putting profits over people and his debt over stopping disinformation.”

“Putting profits over people” is boilerplate Marxist rhetoric. The reference to “disinformation” is a demand for political censorship of the sort imposed under Twitter’s previous owners.

Musk did not become the world’s richest man by being easy to push around. His response:

“Perhaps it is because your real account sounds like a parody?” Musk mocked.

“And why does your [profile picture] have a mask!?” he said.

That brought the mask off. Growled Markey:

Fix your companies. Or Congress will.

Biden too has threatened Musk, croaking about inflicting a federal investigation regarding his “relationships with other countries.” This is rich, coming from a swamp creature who openly boasted of using US taxpayer money to protect his bagman Hunter’s unsavory activities in Ukraine, and who required the help of Twitter to suppress information regarding his influence peddling to our communist Chinese adversaries. The media has been egging on Biden, asking whether Musk is a threat to national security.

Democrats may as well drop the global warming window dressing. By now we all know what we are dealing with: tyranny.

James Gordon Meek Disappears Following FBI Raid

Posted on by

Democrats were gleeful when they got Rep David Schweikert (R-AZ) on video expressing his view that the FBI needs to be broken up. They wanted it to go viral, so they could paint him as a radical. To their chagrin, the public responded by asking where they can donate to Schweikert. People understand that we need to break up our nascent KGB now, because soon it will be too late; anyone who tries will be eliminated. People whose existence displeases the Deep State will start disappearing in the middle of the night, never to be heard from again, as in the Soviet Union. The case of investigative journalist James Gordon Meek, who has not been seen since a Mar-a-Lago/Mark Houck-style FBI raid on his home in April, suggests this may be happening already:

According to reports, heavily armed federal agents seized classified information from Meek’s laptop during a raid on his Virginia home on April 27. Colleagues at ABC News told Rolling Stone that Meek “fell off the face of the Earth” following the raid. …

Neighbors reported that they have not seen Meek since the raid and that his home appears to be vacant.

If he ever turns up, I hope he still has his fingernails.

Even if he works for the MSM, Meek is the kind of guy the Deep State would want gone:

Meek won several awards for his investigative work on extremely sensitive topics, including exposing a U.S. military cover-up of the deaths of four American Green Berets in Niger, which he made into the acclaimed Hulu documentary “3212 Un-Redacted.” …

Meek was working on a book that was critical of the Biden administration’s withdrawal from Afghanistan.

The Afghanistan withdrawal was not only grotesquely incompetent but potentially treasonous. The Biden Regime provided a kill list to our Taliban enemies, whom it has been funding lavishly with our money, and in whose hands it left up to 9,000 Americans. Meek presumably knows more.

Readers will recall how the Obama Administration used intimidation tactics on Fox News reporter James Rosen. What these people get away with, they will escalate.

Buckle up. If Democrats are not pried out of power soon, we are in for a rough ride. Even if the GOP retakes Congress, a thorough draining of the Swamp will be required if we are to avert the horrors of authoritarianism.

Sign of Cross and Holy Water Banned

Posted on by

If you are forbidden by the government from sprinkling holy water or even making the Sign of the Cross, you may fairly say that you are not free. From decomposing England:

Last Tuesday, Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Council prohibited pro-life campaigners from holding vigils where members audibly pray, recite scripture or even genuflect when they see women going towards the abortuary to have their babies killed. …

The order states that no one may engage “in an act of approval/disapproval or attempted act of approval/disapproval, with respect to issues related to abortion services, by any means,” including, but “not limited to graphic, verbal or written means, prayer or counselling.”

Evidently anything that reminds moonbats of Christianity counts.

BCP Council identified “holding rosaries,” “praying, sometimes while kneeling” and “sprinkling ‘holy water’ on the pavement outside the clinic,” as objectionable acts.

Dave Brennan, executive director of the pro-life group Brephos, notes that “harassment and intimidation are already offences.” But that doesn’t cover rosaries and holy water.

“How are we living in a society where killing babies is legal and paid for by the State, but silently praying against or even about this nearby is a criminal offense?” he asked.

Maybe BCP Council would like to borrow an FBI SWAT team to raid the homes and terrorize the families of those who display Christian symbols near baby abattoirs. That’s how the Biden Regime handles prolifers.

Meanwhile, leftists screech about censorship if they encounter resistance while plying children with depraved pornography. The struggle isn’t so much liberty vs. tyranny as good vs. evil.

PayPal Weaponized

Posted on by

The totalitarianism currently unfolding differs from repressive regimes of the past. Rigid adherence to official ideology is imposed on a more decentralized basis. The Constitution defends us against political censorship imposed by the federal government. So our rulers utilize private sector cat’s paws like PayPal, where you can find yourself banned for any thought the liberal opinion enforcers don’t like.

Even gays opposing the sexual exploitation of children can find themselves canceled:

Gays Against Groomers is far from alone:

On the same day, the Telegraph reported that PayPal shut down the accounts of Free Speech Union, its founder Toby Young, and his opinion and news website the Daily Sceptic last week without a clear explanation. Free Speech Union is a nonpartisan organization that opposes cancel culture and has defended academics who have criticized transgenderism and people who have been fired for expressing their opinions.

Toby Young sounds off:

The infraction:

[C]omments from PayPal given to the Advocate suggest the bans are related to both Free Speech Union and Gays Against Groomers’ public opposition to “radical gender theory” and drag queen story hours in schools.

Quacks a PayPal apparatchik:

“Achieving the balance between protecting the ideals of tolerance, diversity and respect for people of all backgrounds and upholding the values of free expression and open dialogue can be difficult, but we do our best to achieve it.”

How do you argue with NPCs who tell you with a straight face that deviation from their demented ideology must be suppressed in the name of tolerance and diversity?

The arms of the octopus work in tandem:

Hours after being banned by PayPal, Gays Against Groomers shared that the group’s gmail account had also been disabled.

The implications of this developing form of liberal tyranny are truly alarming. Paul Joseph Watson explains:

Revelation 13:17 tells of a time when no one may buy or sell without the Mark of the Beast. Compliance with woke ideology is the Mark of the Beast.
