Paradise LOST: Pacific Palisades Homeowners Flee In Droves INSTEAD Of Re-Building!

A girls’ high school softball team in Minnesota won its first-ever state championship on Friday thanks to the lights-out pitching of a boy who identifies as a girl. The Champlin Park Rebels took down the Bloomington Jefferson Jaguars 6-0 in the 4A title game, riding the arm of Marissa Rothenberger, a boy, who pitched the entire game, giving up just two hits to Bloomington Jefferson. In the Rebels’ three-game tournament title run, Rothenberger pitched all 21 innings for the team, allowing just two runs. ?

According to the outlet, two fathers of girls on White Bear Lake “expressed deep frustration with the system that allowed their daughters to compete against a male athlete.” One dad specifically called out Democrats for allowing boys to compete against girls in Minnesota. “You’re looking at a whole team of future Republicans,” he said. The Minnesota State High School League (MSHSL) allows athletes to compete “consistent with their gender identity or expression in an environment free from discrimination with an equal opportunity for participation in athletics and fine arts,” according to The Minnesota Star Tribune. In February, the Trump administration opened an investigation into the MSHSL over its transgender policy after President Donald Trump signed an executive order to protect women’s sports. Trump has gone after some states, such as California and Maine, threatening to cut off federal funding if they continue to allow boys to compete against girls. Gift Dad an All Access Membership.

Tim Walz has been blasted by conservatives and women’s sports advocates for allowing boys to play against girls in his state. Walz has made the transgender issue a big part of his platform, turning the state into a “trans refuge” and supporting life-altering gender procedures on children. Along with leading his team to the state championship, Rothenberger also received “All-Tournament Team” honors, according to Outkick reporter Amber Harding Snyder.

Rothenberger reportedly kept his gender transition hidden from his teammates, but one of his former teammates, who spoke to Reduxx on the condition of anonymity, said that eventually girls and parents started to figure it out. Rothenberger has reportedly shared locker rooms, bathrooms, and rooms with teammates while traveling for games.

A Washington, D.C., park at the center of this weekend’s Pride festivities will be closed to prevent the vandalism that occurred in years past. Dupont Circle Park closed at 6 p.m. on Thursday and will remain closed through about 6 p.m. on Sunday, the National Park Service announced. Early Friday morning, temporary fencing was erected around the park. The decision comes as after days of back-and-forth between federal and local authorities over the issue, as well as backlash from WorldPride 2025 attendees, who hoped the park would remain open. Washington, D.C., is hosting WorldPride 2025, which will have a plethora of events from Friday to Sunday. The events include at least four drag queen story hours including “Indigenous Drag Story Hour,” an event about “Deaf Queer Dating,” and a talk by a trans-identifying woman titled, “Propaganda & Transphobia: How Trans People Became the Political Pawn.” Dupont Circle Park was closed at the request of the United States Park Police, which said it was necessary to “secure the park, deter potential violence, reduce the risk of destructive acts and decrease the need for extensive law enforcement presences.” Washington, D.C., Police Chief Pamela Smith originally requested to close the park, but she later withdrew that request “after hearing from community leaders and residents.” Gift Dad an All Access Membership.

In 2019, gunshots were heard in the park causing people to flee, and a person was arrested. In 2023, the park was vandalized to the tune of $175,000 in damage to a historic fountain. Last year, “large groups of juveniles” in the park engaged in “illegal activities, including drinking alcohol, smoking marijuana, and engaging in fights” and also “ran into a local business and stole items,” the police chief noted in her letter to the Park Police. The Park Police pushed for a closure anyway, noting that “the threat of violence, criminal acts and [park] resource destruction” has “only increased” over the last few weeks. For example, a local DJ was selling tickets to an “unpermitted gathering/party” in Dupont Circle after the World Pride events, the Park Police said. “This social media advertisement is stating that this is the same DJ and ‘party’ as the previous several years, which have resulted in the unsafe conditions and damages recounted above,” the Park Police wrote in a June 4 letter to National Park Service leadership.

Authorities in Pontiac, Michigan, likely stopped a mass shooting at a high school graduation ceremony earlier this week, Oakland County Sheriff Michael Bouchard revealed on Friday. On Tuesday, Sheriff’s deputies were called to break up a fight at the Arts and Technology Academy of Pontiac graduation, and after arriving, were told about a shooting threat posted on social media, The Detroit News reported. Aided by security footage from the United Wholesale Mortgage’s Sports Complex, where the graduation was taking place, authorities discovered that two men had placed packages underneath vehicles. Both packages contained handguns with 40-round magazines. “When you combine that with the post that had been seen, that someone planned to shoot up this graduation, in our business we call that a clue,” Sheriff Bouchard said. “These weren’t brought to be simple accessories. … I believe we probably prevented a mass shooting.” “Just those two weapons, without changing magazines, had 80 rounds of potential firepower,” Bouchard added. “Shooting into a graduation, you can only imagine the outcome of that.” Deputies arrested a 19-year-old suspect, but are still looking for 20-year-old Jamarion Hardiman, a person of interest in the alleged mass shooting plot, according to The Detroit News. The Snapchat post where the threat was made has been taken down, but according to people who saw the post, it mentioned “going to shoot up the crowd,” according to Bouchard.

I am grateful to first responders for acting fast and saving lives in Pontiac.” The graduation ceremony proceeded after only two minutes of disruption, according to Septembra Williams, superintendent of the Arts and Technology Academy of Pontiac. Both of the suspects in the alleged shooting threat “have a history of being involved with weapons and violence,” and the 20-year-old person of interest is currently on probation for a previous weapons case, according to Sheriff Bouchard. Authorities do not believe that either of the two suspects attended the Arts and Technology Academy of Pontiac, but they likely had family and friends at the graduation ceremony. In November of 2021, Oxford High School — less than 20 miles north of Pontiac — was targeted in a mass shooting, where a teenage shooter killed four students and wounded seven other people.

As tensions increase after a deadly anti-Semitic attack in Washington, D.C., a female driver was shot outside CIA headquarters in McLean, Virginia, in a shocking security breach. The woman was hurt but survived after she disregarded repeated orders to stop at the security gate at around 4 a.m. on Thursday. This incident adds to a troubling trend of security incidents at government buildings that endanger the safety of Americans. Security Breach at America’s Intelligence Headquarters The unidentified woman approached the CIA headquarters entrance and refused multiple orders to stop, resulting in security personnel shooting her in the upper body. She was transported to a medical facility with non-life-threatening injuries while the FBI launched an immediate investigation into her motives and potential connections to terrorist activities. Following the incident, the CIA was forced to close its front gate and advised employees to use alternate routes into the facility. This breach comes amid heightened security concerns nationwide, particularly after the murder of two Israeli Embassy staffers in a hate-motivated attack in Washington, D.C. just hours earlier.

In March, a man named Robert Scofield was arrested after firing “several rounds” toward the CIA building during a standoff, while in 2021, security personnel fatally shot a man who approached the gates with a weapon.

Please use alternate routes for Thursday, May 22nd.” While authorities have not connected this incident to the deadly shooting of Israeli embassy workers, both events highlight significant vulnerabilities in protecting critical government facilities and personnel. Anti-Semitic Violence Escalates in Nation’s Capital The CIA gate breach occurred shortly after two Israeli Embassy workers, Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Lynn Milgrim, were brutally murdered at the Capitol Jewish Museum in what authorities are investigating as an anti-Semitic hate crime. The suspect, Elias Rodriguez, was reportedly heard chanting “free, free Palestine” during his arrest, confirming fears about rising anti-Jewish violence targeting American allies. “These horrible D.C. killings, based obviously on antisemitism, must end, NOW! Hatred and Radicalism have no place in the USA. Condolences to the families of the victims. So sad that such things as this can happen! God Bless You ALL!” – Mr. Trump The victims were a couple planning to become engaged, with Yechiel Leiter revealing: “The young man purchased a ring this week to propose to his girlfriend next week in Jerusalem.” The Israeli Foreign Ministry expressed shock at the “brutal terrorist attack,” while law enforcement officials continue investigating potential connections between these attacks and other threats against American institutions and allies.

At a Glance Project Veritas released an undercover video of DNC Vice Chair David Hogg criticizing the Democratic Party as a “failing gerontocracy” Hogg called for older Democratic leaders to “get their sh*t together or get the fu*k out of the way” He specifically criticized Nancy Pelosi’s stock trading while acknowledging her effectiveness A DNC panel is now considering a proposal that could void Hogg’s election as vice chair Hogg claims the attempt to remove him is retaliation for challenging the party establishment Young DNC Leader Caught on Camera Blasting Party Elders Democratic National Committee Vice Chair David Hogg has ignited controversy after being captured on video delivering a blistering critique of his own party. In footage released by Project Veritas, Hogg describes the Democratic Party as a “failing gerontocracy” dominated by elderly leaders who resist change and new ideas. The comments reveal significant tension between younger progressive voices and the established Democratic leadership, highlighting a generational divide that could impact the party’s future direction and electoral prospects. The undercover video shows Hogg expressing frustration with party elders who he believes are stifling innovation and progress. His candid remarks suggest growing impatience among younger Democrats who feel underrepresented in party decision-making despite their increasing importance to the Democratic voter base. The timing of these revelations is particularly significant as the party prepares for upcoming elections, where youth engagement and turnout could prove decisive.

While acknowledging her effectiveness as a political leader, Hogg specifically called out Pelosi’s controversial stock trading activities. He suggested her trading success appeared suspiciously well-timed, adding to existing concerns about potential conflicts of interest among congressional leaders who have access to privileged information while simultaneously making investment decisions. “I would say Pelosi’s actually very good at her job. I don’t agree with the stock trading stuff” – David Hogg – BREAKING: David Hogg Caught on Camera Slamming “Brainwashed” Democrats as Failing “Gerontocracy” (VIDEO) | The Gateway Pundit | by Cristina Laila The criticism touches on Pelosi’s significant wealth accumulation during her congressional career, a sensitive subject that has drawn scrutiny from both sides of the political aisle. Hogg’s comments about Pelosi reflect broader concerns about wealth and power concentration among long-serving members of Congress. His willingness to publicly criticize such a powerful figure within his own party demonstrates the growing boldness of younger party members in challenging established Democratic leadership practices. David Hogg is a child clearly in over his head, thrust into a spotlight he never earned. Look at his face, his confusion, his pain. Ask yourself—who put him there and why? Something deeper is unfolding.pic.twitter.com/pOUvaE5lEU — Lionel (@LionelMedia) April 23, 2025 DNC Backlash Threatens Hogg’s Position Following the release of the Project Veritas video, reports indicate that a Democratic National Committee panel is now considering a proposal that could potentially void Hogg’s recent election as vice chair. The proposal, ostensibly linked to a procedural complaint, would also affect fellow vice chair Malcolm Kenyatta. Hogg has publicly claimed that the effort to remove him stems directly from his willingness to challenge incumbent Democrats in primary elections and his critique of the party’s older leadership. “This [being ousted from DNC] is all for daring to say that maybe we shouldn’t have a gerontocracy – a government run by old people” – David Hogg – BREAKING: David Hogg Caught on Camera Slamming “Brainwashed” Democrats as Failing “Gerontocracy” (VIDEO) | The Gateway Pundit | by Cristina Laila The internal party conflict highlights the tensions between maintaining party unity and allowing for fresh perspectives and criticism. If Hogg is removed from his position, it could signal to younger Democratic voters that the party establishment remains resistant to meaningful change or internal criticism. The dispute represents a critical moment for Democratic leadership as they balance tradition and experience against the need to energize and incorporate younger voices who may be essential to future electoral success.

With even more closures announced, it looks like Rite Aid will likely be a thing of the past. The company’s website announced the suspension of its rewards program in late May, and as of June 5, the company will no longer honor gift cards or accept returns and exchanges. The company listed all its locations for sale in May 2025 in hopes a buyer would come forward to save the brand. In addition to the pharmacy’s retail locations, the sale and closures would also mean the end of Thrifty Ice Cream. The company announced it would close hundreds of Thrifty Ice Cream locations, marking the end of an era. Rite Aid Will Close Almost 500 Retail Stores According to Daily Mail, Rite Aid initially announced plans to close 361 stores but recently announced an additional 111 locations, with 39 in both California and New York shuttering. It’s unclear when the final day of business will take place. CVS entered into an agreement to purchase 64 Rite Aid locations in Idaho, Oregon, and Washington, The Hill reported. The company looks forward to the future. “We’re well-positioned to serve our existing customers and patients, as well as those who may be transitioning to us from Rite Aid and are excited to introduce them to our best-in-class front store and pharmacy offerings, upon the closings of the transactions,” CVS said in a statement shared with Nexstar. “We’re working closely with Rite Aid on plans to ensure that the transition will be seamless for patients and customers and access to pharmacy care is not interrupted.” Walgreens also entered an agreement with Rite Aid not to purchase retail locations but to acquire prescription files from locations across nine states. Walgreens expressed its excitement with Nexstar and said it looked forward to “providing Rite Aid’s customers with greater access to a wide range of trusted pharmacy and healthcare services.” This story’s featured image is by JHVEPhoto via Shutterstock.

Michael Landon died from pancreatic cancer in 1991, less than ten years after Little House on the Prairie ended. Michael played the iconic Charles Ingalls for eight seasons of the historical drama. It’s hard to believe, but the show is 50 years old in 2025. To celebrate, Pamela Bob created the Little House 50. with original Little House cast members. In a recent episode Pamela, Alison Arngrim, Nellie Oleson, and Dean Butler, Almanzo Wilder, reminisced about a special episode. The cast recalled Remember Me from season two and the plot about a widow with incurable cancer trying to figure out who will care for her three young children after her death. Michael wrote and directed the episode, which feels special to Dean. “I think there are elements of this episode that are so quintessentially Michael and his whole take on so many different things,” he said. “One of his most quoted lines of dialogue, which interestingly is generally quoted to Laura Ingalls Wilder — was, ‘Remember me with smiles and laughter for that is how I will remember you.'” Michael Landon Died A Few Years After Wrote That Line Dean explained that when Michael Landon died in 1991, Melissa Gilbert included the special line as she spoke to the crowd. “The beautiful actress Patricia Neal said the line in the episode. And interestingly, Melissa Gilbert quoted the line at Michael’s funeral service in July of 1991, as part of her remarks, which were some of the most beautiful remarks I’d ever heard. Melissa, who’s incredibly articulate, was really, really spectacular in that situation,” Dean said. Alison added that those words will always remind her of the special times she shared with Michel Landon. “I can’t even hear those words without kind of choking up because it was so Michael,” she said. “It’s heart-wrenching in this episode, but then when it became literally Michael’s epitaph … it was like, just plunge a knife at the chest.” This story’s featured image is by NBCU Photo Bank via Getty.
