Does Rep. Jerry Nadler‚ D-N.Y.‚ really live in New York or an alternate universe? People certainly wondered after a House Judiciary Committee hearing where the 76-year-old declared‚ “Men do not compete in women’s sports.” Is the president’s senility contagious or is Nadler living in complete denial of a global phenomenon that’s plunged communities into chaos? Not only are men competing in women’s sports‚ they’re winning women’s titles—a fact Riley Gaines was more than happy to point out. “Ironic he says this on the EXACT two-year anniversary of this photo being taken‚” Gaines‚ the former University of Kentucky swimmer‚ posted alongside a picture of Lia Thomas holding a trophy he never should have had the chance to race for. “This 6’4” man isn’t fooling anyone with any amount of common sense‚” Gaines fumed. “2 years ago today‚ I had a fire lit under me and communists like Nadler continue to fuel it.” Ironic he says this on the EXACT 2 year anniversary of this photo being taken. This 6'4" man isn't fooling anyone with any amount of common sense. 2 years ago today I had a fire lit under me and communists like Nadler continue to fuel it. https://t.co/D0xnL1kfL9 pic.twitter.com/jqouIQWCxC— Riley Gaines (@Riley_Gaines_) March 21‚ 2024 And yet‚ Nadler was so determined to suppress reality that he actually moved to have evidence of the debate stricken from the record. Rep. Harriet Hageman‚ R-Wyo.‚ had catalogued a number of times that biological boys had stolen girls’ titles and opportunities in the past several years. The group SheWon puts the number at an eye-popping 292 stolen first-place podiums. “I ask for unanimous consent to submit for the record instances of men hijacking women’s sports and the various examples that we have demonstrating not only injuries that have been suffered by women as men have participated in girls’ sports‚ but also the women—the girls and women who have been affected by this‚ including Riley Gaines‚ when Will Thomas decided to join the … women’s swimming team in Pennsylvania‚” Hageman requested. .@RepJerryNadler: "Men do not compete in women's sports." Who wants to tell him about Lia Thomas — a man‚ who has competed in women's sports.@Riley_Gaines_? pic.twitter.com/LLjUTzD1jJ— House Judiciary GOP (@JudiciaryGOP) March 21‚ 2024 Nadler‚ the committee’s ranking member‚ fired back‚ “I object to concluding these mistruths in the record.” Shocked‚ Hageman replied how telling it was that he didn’t want the facts included in the record—to which the New Yorker replied‚ “Men do not compete in women’s sports.” That’s news to the 25 (going on 26) states that have stepped in to stop this madness from overtaking their girls at the pool‚ track‚ court‚ field‚ and gym. If it wasn’t happening‚ then this was sure a monumental waste of legislative time. Slack-jawed‚ conservatives kept up the pressure‚ giving a passionate defense of girls and the opportunities‚ safety‚ and privacy they’re losing by this absurd introduction of men in women’s sports. Rep. Victoria Spartz‚ R-Ind.‚ showed a video montage of girls who’ve been physically injured playing against biological boys in volleyball‚ field hockey‚ and basketball. From Massachusetts to North Carolina‚ members watched as girls screamed in pain‚ lost teeth‚ were carted off with head injuries. One of the victims‚ Payton McNabb‚ still suffers from blurred vision‚ partial paralysis‚ and memory loss. We have examples‚ Spartz insisted‚ of “much stronger guys playing sports against biologically not-as-strong women.” “Girls actually get hurt by biological males playing sports‚” she argued. “I mean‚ it is really unbelievable for me that this is an issue that we cannot stand with women and girls on.” Instead‚ Spartz went on‚ “the other side tries to really deter the conversation in a different direction and divert it. … Let’s talk about how we are going to protect our women and girls.” When the talk turned to privacy rights‚ Rep. Eric Swalwell‚ D-Calif.‚ joined Nadler’s delusion‚ claiming that men in girls locker rooms “is not a thing.” Tell that to the 16 plaintiffs suing the NCAA. One of them‚ Gaines’ teammate and Southeastern Conference champion Kaitlynn Wheeler‚ describes in agonizing detail how they were put in a “fundamentally unfair situation that no student-athlete‚ let alone a teenage girl‚ should ever have to face.” The collegiate sports body “did not simply make my teammates in the 100-‚ 200-‚ and 500-yard freestyle races face a biological male swimmer in the pool‚” she insisted. “The NCAA also decided that Lia Thomas‚ a 6-foot-4-inch‚ 22-year-old transgender swimmer with a male body and full male genitalia‚ would be undressing with us.” She writes of that traumatizing experience in a new Washington Examiner op-ed: The moment I realized Thomas would be sharing our most private space‚ I was engulfed by a whirlwind of emotions—shock‚ disbelief‚ horror. The sanctity of our locker room‚ a space that should have been ours and ours alone‚ was shattered without warning. The presence of male genitalia in a space that was supposed to be safe‚ where we were vulnerable and exposed‚ was not just uncomfortable. It was a visceral invasion of our privacy and dignity. Feeling my stomach churn as whispers turned to silence‚ I stood there‚ naked and exposed‚ not just physically‚ but also emotionally‚ grappling with a reality I couldn’t comprehend. The NCAA’s decision to transform our sanctuary into a ‘unisex’ locker room without our consent felt like a betrayal of the highest order. It was a stark reminder that our voices‚ our comfort‚ and our boundaries did not matter. And yet‚ the effort to protect these girls is what Swalwell called “creepy”—not forcing innocent teenagers to share a room with a naked man. That’s what really stings‚ the girls say. No one has their backs. As so many female athletes admitted to Senate Republicans‚ they feel helpless. “This is kind of a theme that we got‚” Sen. Bill Cassidy‚ R-La.‚ said of his committee’s investigation on trans inclusion in sports: “‘Why am I even trying? I don’t have any hope whatsoever.’” “Our voices as women were completely silenced‚” another admitted. Fortunately for Wheeler and the thousands of American daughters living this nightmare‚ Republicans do care. Over the objections of Democrats‚ conservatives on the House Judiciary Committee passed the Protection of Women in Olympic &; Amateur Sports Act—authored by Rep. Greg Steube‚ R-Fla.—on March 21. Today‚ @JudiciaryGOP passed the Protection of Women in Olympic &; Amateur Sports Act. As a mother of two girls and someone who has worked in male-dominated professions her entire life‚ Rep. Spartz will stand with women to protect their rights &; opportunities as athletes. pic.twitter.com/CmUnUYJ1zG— Rep. Victoria Spartz (@RepSpartz) March 21‚ 2024 To Wheeler‚ who watched Thomas stand on top of a podium meant for her sport‚ maybe it will mean the end of the silence of the adults in the room. “That silence spoke volumes of the injustice‚ pain‚ and anger brewing in the hearts of not just the competitors‚ but of every woman forced into silence by a system that refuses to listen.” Until then‚ she vowed‚ women will “stand against the erasure of our voices‚” whether or not this president or his party stands with them. “We demand a future where female athletes are respected‚ where our safety and privacy are not just acknowledged‚ but fiercely protected.” Originally published by The Washington Stand The Daily Signal publishes a variety of perspectives.

About 9 months ago‚ I had a very interesting phone call. It was a call from Frank Vandersloot‚ direct to my cell phone one Saturday morning. Many of you may not recognize that name‚ but Frank is the wealthiest person in Idaho‚ with an estimated net worth of $3.3 billion according to Forbes: Frank’s net worth comes from founding and growing an incredible company called Melaleuca‚ which I am proud to promote and champion here at WLTReport. Why? Because he built it from the ground up starting with nothing (much the same way I started this website) and he grew in into a behemoth.  But that’s not the only reason.  It’s because he loves America and he loves American Patriots like you and me!  I’ve visited their home office in Idaho Falls and they proudly have larger-than-life sized statues of our Founding Fathers displayed throughout their lobby and offices. George Washington… Abraham Lincoln… While BLM and the Democrats work overtime on tearing down statues and monuments to our Founding Fathers‚ Frank and his company proudly honor them. So we’ve become good friends the more I’ve gotten to know Frank because we have many‚ many shared values. So about 9 months ago‚ my phone starts to ring on a Saturday morning and it’s Frank calling me. Let me tell you something‚ I don’t worship money so don’t get it twisted‚ but when a Billionaire is on the phone calling you‚ you don’t make them wait. I quickly learned what was on Frank’s mind…. He wanted to talk politics‚ and especially Donald Trump. Keep in mind this is 2023‚ but Frank is calling me to talk the state of the Republican Party and we chatted for almost an hour and a half! I later realized Frank is the wealthiest person I have ever spoken to and had an engaging conversation with. You quickly realize you’re dealing with a special person‚ his mind moves a mile a minute.  But I did my best to keep up‚ and in many instances respectfully pushed back on some of his ideas.  It ended up being such a fun “debate” that we’ve talked about having another chat live on my show. I’m hoping we can make that happen soon. But I tell you all of this to get to one specific point… At the heart of our conversation was one key takeaway that I got from Frank — and which I’ve heard from many other people.  I’m sure you have too.  It’s this: “I like President Trump’s policies‚ I just don’t like his personality and the way he conducts himself.” Have you heard people say that? It’s like fingernails on a chalkboard to me.  Why?  Because that’s not living in reality. I’ll share a couple of my thoughts in response and then I want to share with you the best response I have ever heard to that question‚ which comes from Patrick Bet-David. First a few thoughts… Perhaps we would all like the proverbial statesman who looks all prim and proper‚ uses only proper English and smiles to your face while speaking formally and courteously to all‚ and keeps the country running perfectly in the meantime.  Maybe even make him a bit of a Pastor-figure. Maybe 25% grandfatherly‚ 25% father figure‚ 25% Pastor‚ and 25% old school proper CEO. Sounds great‚ right? The problem is‚ that person doesn’t exist. And especially not in this day and age. As I told Frank‚ you have to think back to the summer of 2015 when Donald Trump first announced he was running for President after that famous escalator ride in Trump Tower. He was running against 17 other candidates and many people thought his candidacy was a farce. In today’s day and age‚ you have to be able to cut through the noise and get attention — without attention‚ it doesn’t matter how good your policies are‚ you will fade away into the background and never make center stage. So Donald Trump had to be noisy‚ he had to get attention.  And it’s often not the fatherly‚ grandfatherly‚ pastor types who can get constant media attention.  Sorry‚ that’s just not our world right now. You can disagree with the way our world operates and wish it was different‚ but President Trump didn’t care to win that intellectual debate.  He didn’t care to say the game should be changed.  He simply knew the rules of the game and he played them to win. And one by one he knocked out all 17 challengers and then Hillary Clinton. I’m sorry but only a rough-and-tumble fighter can do that. The grandfatherly‚ pastor figure can’t do that.  I wish they could. But we were not electing a National Pastor‚ we were electing a President.  And we needed a fighter. The other thing I told Frank is that often times the people who we think are the best people end up being the worst‚ and the people we think are the worst end up being the best. Think about Joe Biden…he looks grandfatherly‚ doesn’t do any mean tweets‚ smiles to your face….but is killing American behind the scenes. Take Sean “Diddy” Combs….beloved Hollywood star (not by me‚ but by millions)….and now allegations are out that he’s potentially involved in some of the worst sex trafficking we have ever seen. Now consider Donald Trump.  He does mean tweets.  He’s unpredictable.  He’s tough‚ perhaps a rough exterior‚ doesn’t always sugar coat things.  Uses bad words sometimes publicly!  But…America was strong and prosperous under his leadership‚ and I would argue that as best I can tell‚ he has a true heart of gold under that tough exterior. So that’s what I told Frank‚ and he told me a lot back‚ and it was a rousing conversation.  I hope we can do it live on my show sometime soon. But now I want to show you what I think is perhaps the best response to that whole debate that I have ever heard and it comes from Patrick Bet-David‚ during a recent interview he did with Stephen A. Smith. Fascinating interview‚ but it was this little clip that really jumped out to me which perfectly addresses the people who just don’t like Donald Trump’s personality. Watch here: Backup here if needed: Patrick Bet-David @patrickbetdavid @ValuetainmentTV gives the BEST answer to “I don’t like Trump’s personality” that I have ever heard. This is a must watch‚ so perfectly said.

I’ll tell you what….the perfect candidate does not exist‚ but one guy who comes very close (other than Donald Trump of course) is Patrick Bet-David himself. Unfortunately‚ he is not eligible since he wasn’t born here‚ but he checks nearly every box. A fighter just like Trump‚ with perhaps some of the nuance and statesmanship that some people need to see. A shame he is not eligible to run‚ I could see him carry the MAGA banner very well in the future after President Trump is retired. And if you’d like to watch that full episode‚ you can see it right here on Valuetainment:

West Virginia Gov. Jim Justice‚ a Republican‚ has vetoed legislation that would remove vaccination requirements for certain schoolchildren. “Gov. Jim Justice announced today that he has vetoed HB 5105‚ which would have removed vaccination requirements for students in virtual public schools and allow private and parochial schools to set their own standards‚” Justice’s office stated in a press release. “We are way ahead of the pack in protecting our children from preventable diseases like measles. In this matter‚ I defer to our licensed medical professionals‚ who have overwhelmingly said this bill could and likely would result in reduced immunity and harm to WV’s kids‚” Justice said on Wednesday. We are way ahead of the pack in protecting our children from preventable diseases like measles. In this matter‚ I defer to our licensed medical professionals‚ who have overwhelmingly said this bill could and likely would result in reduced immunity and harm to WV's kids. — Governor Jim Justice (@WVGovernor) March 27‚ 2024 West Virginia has “one of the country’s strictest school vaccination policies‚” the Associated Press noted. “West Virginia is only one of a handful of states in the U.S. that offers only medical exemptions to vaccine requirements. The bill would have allowed some students who don’t attend traditional public institutions or participate in group extracurriculars like sports to be exempt from vaccinations typically required for children starting day care or school‚” the outlet reports. “Since this legislation was passed‚ I have heard constant‚ strong opposition to this legislation from our State’s medical community. The overwhelming majority that have voiced their opinion believe that this legislation will do irreparable harm by crippling childhood immunity to diseases such as mumps and measles. West Virginia historically has seen very few instances of these diseases‚ specifically because the vaccination requirements in this State are so strong‚” Justice wrote in his veto letter. “Importantly‚ the vaccines at issue have been required in this State for decades and have kept our communities safe. Our surrounding states‚ however‚ have seen spikes in such illnesses recently. These spikes‚ we are advised‚ are the result of the lesser vaccine requirements in those states‚” he continued. With his veto‚ Justice broke from the GOP-majority legislature that passed the bill. Republican Gov.

We have worked hard to health freedom in West Virginia. Do NOT veto this bill. — Derrick Evans (@DerrickEvans4WV) March 27‚ 2024 Cont. from Gov. Justice’s veto letter: “Additionally‚ we have heard from many private and parochial institutions all around the State‚ likewise requesting this bill be vetoed. We have heard from this community that they see this bill as purely divisive and‚ if signed into law‚ requiring consideration of adopting policies that will result in parents pulling their children from their schools. “I have always and will always defend our freedoms as West Virginians and as Americans. I hear how strongly people believe in one side or the other on this subject‚ and I respect all opinions. But I must follow the guidance of our medical experts on this subject. Our medical community in West Virginia serves our people every single day‚ helping protect our people from disease and poor health. Their wisdom should not be ignored–especially when it comes to the health and safety of our children. “West Virginia is way ahead of the pack in protecting our children from preventable diseases like the measles‚ and in this matter‚ I will defer to our licensed medical professionals who have come forward overwhelmingly to say this bill could and likely would result in reduced immunity and harm to West Virginia’s kids. Our kids are our future. They are our most important resource‚ and I will protect them with everything I have. Accordingly‚ I hereby disapprove and return Enrolled Committee Substitute for House Bill 5105.” West Virginia Gov. Jim Justice breaks with GOP Legislature to veto bill rolling back school vaccine rule https://t.co/HRHliKMTXS — Courthouse News (@CourthouseNews) March 27‚ 2024 From the Associated Press: Justice‚ who is running for Democrat U.S. Sen. Joe Manchin’s seat‚ received immense pressure to reject the bill from health care leaders‚ educators and parents. He refused to answer whether or not he planned to sign it before Wednesday’s veto‚ saying he needed time to think through the decision. The veto came on the last day before a key deadline that would have allowed the bill to go into law without Justice’s signature. The bill‚ which received majority support in both legislative chambers even with an overwhelming lack of support from health care leaders‚ would have exempted private and parochial schools from state law and allowed them to develop and enforce their own policies on vaccinations. Virtual-only public school students would also have been exempt. All students participating in West Virginia school activities that result in competition‚ including but not limited to sports‚ would still have needed to be vaccinated. The bill was publicly opposed by the head of the state’s two teachers unions‚ the West Virginia Hospital Association and the West Virginia Medical Association‚ among other organizations. Dr. Clay Marsh‚ West Virginia University’s vice president and executive dean for health sciences‚ also urged Justice to vote against the bill. As COVID-19 Czar for the State of West Virginia‚ Marsh was tapped as a trusted advisor when it came to preventing spread of the virus in the state. Justice was hailed by state health care leaders for his pro-vaccine stance during the coronavirus pandemic. When the COVID-19 vaccine was developed‚ Justice was among the first top elected officials in the country to receive a shot‚ even livestreaming the inoculation on social media.
