Mayorkas-Linked NGO Encourages Illegals to Vote for Biden

Five Years Ago We Got One of the Worst Pieces of Political Propaganda Ever Made

ABC’s Good Morning America and its chief White House correspondent/chief Biden apple polisher Mary Bruce were emanating warm fuzzies and weak knees on Wednesday over their allies in the New York legal system interfering in the 2024 presidential election‚ preventing former President Trump from campaigning five days a week and allowing their candidate — President Joe Biden — to have the country to himself. Co-host Michael Strahan had a tease giving Team Biden what they want by boasting of Trump on day two of jury selection “test[ing] the patience of the judge while President Biden hits the campaign trails in a battleground state.”     Former Clinton official and fellow co-host George Stephanopulos later tossed to Bruce with more state-run phrasing: “While Donald Trump is tied up in court‚ President Biden has been on the campaign trail in battleground state of Pennsylvania.” Even the chyron flashed their glee with the situation: “President Biden Hits the Campaign Trail; Slams Trump’s Values &; “Failed” Economic Policies in Pennsylvania”. Bruce’s 51-second report was nauseatingly hacktastic and a fine audition to replace the ever-inept Karine Jean-Pierre as press secretary in a hypothetical second Biden term‚ starting with her gleeful proclamation about “Biden...trying to seize this moment and create a real splitscreen‚ leaning into his roots in Scranton‚ arguing he and Donald Trump have very different values.” As usual‚ Bruce exhibited zero pushback and relayed Biden spin as news: He said he understands the middle class in a way that Donald Trump simply never will‚ saying that Trump will always put the wealthy and himself first. While the President has been careful not to comment on details of Trump’s trial‚ he has been taking more swipes at his rival‚ joking about Trump’s legal debt and telling supporters here last night that he would never take advantage of a woman. Now‚ the President is spending three days in Pennsylvania this week. It is a battleground where he has spent the most time by our count‚ visiting 30 times since taking office. Michael‚ the President well aware this state is a must win. Not to be left out‚ CBS Mornings had its own glorified press release with the Biden campaign stops woven into its report on day two of the Trump trial. In the first “Eye Opener” co-host and Democratic donor Gayle King bragged about the jurors being tabbed “as President Biden campaigns in a very important swing state.” Co-host Tony Dokoupil later touted the “two very different schedules for our presumptive presidential nominees as former President Donald Trump spends the week in New York in a courtroom for jury selection in his criminal trial” and “President Biden is on the campaign trail with multiple stops in Pennsylvania.” Chief White House correspondent Nancy Cordes proclaimed that “the Biden campaign is clearly looking to play up this split-screen moment where you’ve got former President Trump holed up in a New York courtroom for much of the week‚ while President Biden is on the campaign trail here in the nation’s largest battleground state for three days this week.” Later and after a creepy video of an enthused Biden walking and holding hands with a band of small children‚ Cordes bragged of “Biden popping into his childhood home Tuesday and stumping with supporters in Scranton” on the heels of “[n]ew fundraising figures show the Biden campaign brought in nearly double the Trump team’s haul in the first three months of the year”. She continued with more propaganda (click “expand”): CORDES: The Biden team has used some money to open 14 campaign offices across Pennsylvania and to hire two dozen staffers in the state since February. BIDEN: We’ve opened more campaign offices because of you all than — he don’t — hasn’t opened any that I’m aware of. I’m not being facetious. CORDES: President Biden is waking up here in Scranton today. He will then head to Pittsburgh where he’s expected to push for tariffs to triple on Chinese steel and aluminum. This as he works to line up union support.

This is nothing to celebrate. The abortion mill‚ Planned Parenthood‚ just released its 2022-2023 annual report. America’s largest abortion business proudly announced that it performed five percent more abortions in the last fiscal year than in the year prior. The report titled “Above &; Beyond” started out with a nasty gram from Planned Parenthood’s CEO/President and the Board Chair. It’s been nearly two years since the U.S. Supreme Court took away our right to control our own bodies and lives by overturning Roe v. Wade. Since then‚ more than 20 states have banned some or all abortions. Before that‚ the COVID-19 pandemic upended our health care system and ended far too many lives. For the health care providers and staff at Planned Parenthood’s nearly 600 health centers across the country‚ these have been the most trying of times. OK drama&;#33; In huge font on page seven‚ the group wrote that across its locations‚ it conducted 392‚715 abortions … and those are only the reported ones. “For Planned Parenthood health center staff‚ this was a year of moving mountains: finding appointments in other states and the resources to get patients there‚ building as much capacity as possible for abortion appointments‚ fulfilling increased demand in some places for birth control‚ and much more‚” the authors wrote. Planned Parenthood also raved about all the people it “helped” by paying for abortions and travel costs for abortions outside of a patient's residing state. Obviously the group considered abortion‚ the brutal destruction of innocent life‚ to be part of “health care.” MRCTV reported on Planned Parenthood’s report from last year titled “Relentless” where the company boasted about the 375‚155 children it killed via abortion. This year’s pro-abort annual report facilitated a shared heartbreak by many pro-lifers across the country.  “Planned Parenthood has released their latest annual report. They performed 5% more abortions relative to the previous year. Combine this with skyrocketing rates for abortion pill orders and understand that abortion is far from over after Roe v. Wade. We must abolish abortion‚&;quot; The Sentinel’s Ben Zeisloft wrote on X. LifeNews.com noted that while abortions went up this last year‚  prenatal services declined more that 67%. “These numbers are proof that Planned Parenthood is an abortion business‚ not a women’s health care clinic‚” the group reported. Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America noted how the report proves that Planned Parenthood abortions are the 4th leading cause of death in America and that “Pregnant women sold abortions 97% of the time at Planned Parenthood; one third of revenue comes from taxpayers.” The report showed devastating numbers and was a heartbreaking glimpse into how pro-abort places like Planned Parenthood celebrate the death of babies.

Elements of the liberal media don’t see the lawsuits and trials against former President Trump as just tools to score wins for their electoral politics‚ they also see them as tools to score wins for their racial politics as well. MSNBC host Joy Reid made that abundantly clear during the network’s Monday lovefest for the hush money trial in New York when she praised “my DEIs” for bringing so many charges against the former President. Delving into her usual race-baiting‚ Reid described it as “wonderfully poetic” that black people were prosecuting Trump. Without evidence‚ she suggested that it would upset Trump and his inner circle because they supposedly didn’t want black people going to law school: But for me‚ there is something wonderfully poetic about the fact that despite the fact that even if convicted‚ he's not going to go to prison. The first person to actually criminally prosecute Donald Trump is a black Harvard grad. The very kind of person that his former staff‚ the people who worked for him‚ Steven Miller et cetera‚ want to never be at Harvard Law School. But he was. And he came out and graduated and he's prosecuting you‚ Donald. “And a black woman is doing the same exact thing in Georgia‚” she boasted. “And a black woman forced you to pay a $175 million fine that's out now also in question because the people who put it up‚ that might not be legit.”     Reid was absolutely giddy that “Donald Trump is being held to account by the very multicultural‚ multiracial democracy that he's trying to dismantle.” She added that “there's something poetic and actually wonderful about that” and said it was proof of “something good about our country that we're still capable of having that happen.” “Go‚ DEI&;#33; My DEIs are bringing it home on today&;#33;” she cheered‚ referring to left-wing diversity‚ equity‚ and inclusion programs. Just before lauding Trump’s prosecutors for their skin color‚ she compared Trump to one of his lawyer’s former clients‚ a mob boss: But to the point that you all were just making‚ I mean‚ one of my favorite facts about one of Donald Trump's lawyers‚ Susan Necheles‚ is that one of her former clients was the notorious New York mobster Benny Eggs. And I will just assume and presume that old Benny Eggs was not attacking the judge. So‚ Donald Trump is at this point outdoing actual mobsters in his attacks on the judge's family‚ the daughter. And he's doing it to the point that Lawrence made. “He knows he will never spend a day‚ a second‚ a moment in prison‚” she decried. The transcript is below.

It is a time-honored tradition that during campaign season‚ politicians will defend themselves by claiming that “since I took office” such-and-such has happened or attack their opponents by arguing that “since so-and-so took office” this has happened‚ but when Florida Sen. Marco Rubio tried that tactic against President Biden and his inflation record‚ PolitiFact slapped him with a “half-true” rating despite admitting his numbers were completely true. The specific claim Rubio made was that “It's very misleading when (President Biden) says (inflation) used to be at 9%. This is compounding. It’s not like it went down from 9% to 3%. This is building month after month. The better way to think about it is that it’s 18%‚ 19% over the last three years.&;quot; In the “if your time is short” summary at the top of his article‚ Louis Jacobson wrote‚ “Inflation compounds and it has risen by about 19% over the last three years.” If that sounds like the shortest and easiest fact-check ever‚ Jacobson was there to say not so fast‚ “compared with February 2020‚ the month before the pandemic began‚ and also compared with one year ago‚ wages have increased faster than prices.” Jacobson then spends several paragraphs expanding on these points. Sandwiched between two graphs on wages and inflation‚ Jacobson claims‚ “One is to compare today with February 2020‚ the last full month before the coronavirus pandemic hit. The pandemic represented such an economic upheaval that February 2020 is a plausible benchmark for a ‘normal’ economy.” Not only is Jacobson coming up with a novel excuse to avoid giving Rubio a “true” rating‚ but his stance that the pandemic must be taken into account when fact-checking political talking points is not one that he holds with consistency. In December‚ Jacobson gave Biden a “mostly-true” rating for a claim he made about manufacturing jobs created during his tenure. In January‚ when Biden attacked Trump for job losses during his presidency‚ Jacobson wrote a lengthy explainer piece‚ noting Biden omitted the pandemic‚ but refused to bring out the truth-o-meter. In the first three months of 2024‚ PolitiFact fact-checked Republicans 63 times while only giving out “true” or “mostly trues” 12.7 percent of the time. By contrast‚ Democrats were fact-checked 39 times and given “true” or “mostly true” ratings 56.4 percent of the time. Based on how they treat Rubio‚ Biden‚ and pandemic-related economic statistics‚ we can see how.

Five Trump jurors reportedly get their news from a tech giant notorious for its leftist bias. Fox News released information April 17 on the seven jurors chosen for former President Donald Trump’s supposed “hush money” criminal trial in New York. Answers provided by the jurors reveal five of them receive their news from Google News‚ which media ratings firm AllSides describes as “lean left.” Two of the jurors also find news on TikTok‚ the communist Chinese government-tied app currently under scrutiny as a national security risk. While Fox noted that the jurors were asked questions about their opinion of Trump‚ they do not seem to have been screened for other types of bias. AllSides‚ based on independent review and community feedback‚ rates Google News “lean left” and explains that 63 percent of the tech giant’s news feed sources are leftist. AllSides has apparently not rated TikTok’s news bias‚ but the app‚ which is owned by Chinese ByteDance‚ is certainly concerning from a national security standpoint. The U.S. House recently advanced legislation to force TikTok’s separation from ByteDance. This came not long before a Fortune interview of former employees revealed disturbingly close China ties from TikTok. The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) owns a board seat and maintains a financial stake in TikTok’s parent ByteDance. MRC Free Speech America rated TikTok one of the top Big Tech censors of 2023. Google might not have direct CCP ties‚ but its anti-freedom‚ biased record raises concerns. MRC Free Speech America did a series of bombshell studies exposing Google search results bias in favor of Democrats and against Republicans before the 2022 and 2024 elections. President Joe Biden was among the Democrat candidates favored‚ while Trump’s website was consistently suppressed. Most recently‚ a comprehensive MRC study exposed a whopping 41 times Google interfered in U.S. elections since 2008. Such blatant bias against Trump and other Republicans and Democrats reinforces the argument that Google News is biased and unreliable. It is therefore concerning that five jurors in Trump’s trial source their news from Google. Soros-tied Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg revived the charges against Trump of alleged “hush money” payments to a porn star despite evidence against the alleged crimes. Conservatives are under attack.

More than 1‚000 migrants flocked to New York City’s City Hall on Tuesday morning after some individuals heard false rumors they could receive work visas and green cards for showing up‚ the New York Post reported.The large gathering of migrants coincided with a 10 a.m. hearing titled “The Experiences of Black Migrants in New York City.” The hearing aimed to “understand how the [Mayor Eric Adams] Administration is addressing language access barriers‚ cultural competency challenges‚ health needs‚ and other roadblocks.” NYC-Hundreds of illegals immigrants from Haiti and Africa are currently in front of City Hall in New York. \n\nThe majority are single men and mainly French speaking. They told me they are here to ask the city for more assistance and the ability to work. — (@) Some of the migrants gathered at city hall to participate in a “rally to uplift the experience of Black migrants‚” according to the New York Police Department‚ Newsweek reported. Only 250 individuals were allowed inside city hall to attend the hearing. Others arrived to demand easier and expedited access to work permits. According to other reports‚ the migrants assembled to protest poor shelter conditions. Migrants are now flooding NYC City Hall to protest being moved to shelters instead of the luxury hotels. — (@) However‚ the Post reported that many of the migrants showed up because they heard rumors that they could receive work visas and green cards. The news outlet stated that an activist group allegedly told the migrants‚ who were mostly new arrivals from Guinea‚ to attend.Amadou Sara Bah‚ 44‚ stated to the Post‚ “They told me that they would help me to get a work permit and a green card if I came here today.” Sara Bah noted that he would not have traveled to city hall just to protest the hearing. “There are many people here and we don’t know how to get the help they told us would be here‚” he added. “I came here for a green card. I’m looking for help.”Assitan Makadii with African Communities Together confirmed to the Post that many of the migrants “received some miscommunications” regarding green cards.“They were told they would get money and green cards. It started how all rumors get started‚ on social media‚” she noted.Makadii told the Post that the migrants are “desperate” because “they don’t have a place to go.”“They don’t have nothing and they deserve everything because they are human. We are all human‚” Makadii continued. “As you can see I don’t think [the city housing is] happening because they’re all here because they don’t have a place to sleep.”According to officials‚ one problem the city faces is that it does not have adequate language services for new arrivals. Nearly 3‚000 different languages are spoken in Africa. During the hearing‚ Manuel Castro‚ commissioner of Adams’ Office on Immigrant Affairs‚ stated‚ “This is mostly an issue that belongs to the federal government. They need to do better at providing training in these languages.”“Early on in the situation with the arrival of asylum seekers‚ it was primarily Venezuelan‚ Ecuadorians and other Spanish-speaking asylum-seekers. But we started seeing more people from across the world arrive‚ so there’s a bit of an adjustment period that we’re undergoing‚” Castro explained.Like Blaze News&;#63; Bypass the censors‚ sign up for our newsletters‚ and get stories like this direct to your inbox.

Lisa Bass is a raw milk evangelist. &;quot;When you look at all of the data‚ and you look at what is a health-supporting decision to make‚ I think raw milk comes out on top‚&;quot; Bass told Blaze News. Bass‚ a mother of eight who is known for her popular YouTube channel &;quot;Farmhouse on Boone&;quot; and blog about homemaking‚ is part of a growing movement of free thinkers eschewing processed milk and embracing the benefits of raw dairy. &;quot;I think we are created by God‚ and there is a way everything was designed‚&;quot; Bass said. &;quot;And if you take certain aspects of the food away‚ of course there's going to be other ramifications and other ways it wouldn't be as healthful. It's close to a perfect food. It's whole and good.&;quot; Unfortunately‚ the potential benefits of raw dairy are a secret to most Americans. That’s because the federal government and dairy lobbyists warn that raw milk is inherently dangerous‚ and they claim that consuming raw milk and raw dairy products can lead to severe illness — or even death. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention‚ in fact‚ describes raw milk as “one of the riskiest foods.&;quot; But is that true&;#63; As it turns out‚ the government‚ dairy lobby‚ and the so-called “experts” are not telling you the full story. The anti-raw-milk narrative According to the CDC and Food and Drug Administration‚ raw milk and raw dairy products are unsafe to consume no matter what. The public health agencies warn that raw dairy contains &;quot;disease-causing pathogens&;quot; that‚ if consumed‚ can send you to the hospital with severe illnesses and‚ if you're pregnant‚ may cause miscarriage or lead to stillbirths. In the worst cases‚ people who consume raw dairy may die. The CDC and FDA‚ moreover‚ claim there are zero health benefits associated with consuming raw dairy. The FDA has even published an extensive document to debunk what it claims are the the &;quot;myths&;quot; associated with consuming raw dairy‚ asserting that every purported benefit is false. The science is unequivocally on their side‚ these agencies claim. The dairy lobby is no different. The National Dairy Producers Federation‚ one of the oldest and most powerful dairy advocacy groups‚ strongly opposes raw dairy and efforts to legalize it. Earlier this year‚ the NDPF suggested the raw dairy movement is akin to the &;quot;anti-vaccination movement.&;quot; That narrative is tidy and convenient. And it's true‚ after all‚ that pasteurization — the process of rapidly heating and cooling a liquid to kill all bacteria in it — helped solve a serious problem a century ago: People who lived in cities wanted to share in the benefits of consuming dairy products. But problems with urban sanitation‚ commercial agriculture‚ and the inability to refrigerate dairy led to many outbreaks of foodborne illnesses. Pasteurization‚ then‚ proved to be the right solution for a unique problem in time. &;quot;It's a 19th-century problem‚ and pasteurization is a 19th-century solution‚&;quot; Mark McAfee‚ owner of Raw Farms USA in California — the largest raw dairy farm in the world — told Blaze News. What they aren't telling you As a general rule‚ absolutes are (almost) never true‚ and that is the case with raw milk. To claim that raw dairy is only harmful and there are no benefits to consuming it is a clue the government‚ dairy lobby‚ and so-called &;quot;experts&;quot; are not being honest with you. Dr. Paul Saladino‚ MD‚ is a health influencer best known for promoting a holistic understanding of medicine and an ancestrally consistent diet‚ and he believes raw milk is a superfood. In his educational content‚ Saladino teaches that consuming raw milk improves gut health‚ allergies‚ and immune function‚ and he has the scientific literature to back his claims. &;quot;Raw milk contains many naturally occurring bioactive components that are beneficial and protective and prevent it from becoming a pathogenic breeding ground‚ things like lactoperoxidase immune cells‚ like neutrophil macrophages and immunoglobulins‚ which are antibodies. All of these are contained in raw milk. It is a bioactive-alive fluid‚&;quot; Saladino explains in a YouTube video. The problem with pasteurization‚ then‚ is obvious in Saladino's view: Not only does pasteurization kill the &;quot;bad&;quot; things in raw dairy‚ but it also kills‚ reduces‚ denatures‚ or inhibits the benefits of raw dairy. In Saladino's view‚ raw dairy has received a &;quot;bad rap&;quot; because of outbreaks of foodborne illness involving raw dairy more a century ago. But that was a unique problem in time‚ he argues‚ because cows were being milked in &;quot;very unsanitary conditions&;quot; and were being fed &;quot;complete garbage.&;quot; Metabolically unhealthy animals and unsanitary conditions were the perfect recipe for bacteria growth. But advances in sanitation‚ technology‚ and understanding of human health now render raw milk &;quot;inherently safe&;quot; for all humans‚ according to Saladino — as long as farmers harvesting it uphold high quality and sanitation standards. McAfee says that's exactly what Raw Farms USA does. According to McAfee‚ his family-owned farm has perfected the art of safely harvesting raw dairy and making it a product for consumers. Raw Farms USA's cows are happy and clean‚ and the farm abides by &;quot;extremely strict standards&;quot; that McAfee told Blaze News surpass the standards of pasteurized dairy. It's important to consider four more important facts about raw dairy. First‚ humans have been drinking mammalian milk for thousands of years‚ and we haven't been stingy about our sources‚ harvesting from cows‚ sheep‚ goats‚ camels‚ horses‚ deer‚ buffalo‚ and other mammals. And for the vast majority of human history‚ this milk was consumed unpasteurized without problem. We should consider‚ then‚ whether raw milk itself is the problem — as the anti-raw-milk narrative argues — or if something humans do makes raw milk sometimes risky to consume. Second‚ the government's narrative about human breast milk is completely different from its narrative about raw dairy. Not only does the government recommend that infants be exclusively breastfed for the first six months of life‚ but officials acknowledge that breast milk has &;quot;unique properties&;quot; that protect young children. Breast milk‚ obviously‚ is neither pasteurized nor sterile‚ nor are human breasts sterile. Considering that breast milk is raw milk harvested in a non-sterile environment — just like other mammalian milk — the natural question arises: Why is raw breast milk best‚ but other raw dairy is unsafe under every circumstance&;#63; &;quot;They talk out of both sides of their mouth‚&;quot; McAfee told Blaze News‚ citing scientists who have found that raw dairy milk and breast milk‚ while quantitatively different‚ are &;quot;practically identical&;quot; qualitatively. &;quot;You compare cow's milk to breast milk — it's practically identical on kinds of proteins‚ the kinds of fats‚ but the amounts are different. That's why there's so much compatibility between humans and cows‚&;quot; he said. &;quot;We're a match made in heaven in terms of being able to have a portable‚ whole food nutrition from cows to people‚&;quot; McAfee explained. &;quot;Breastfeeding is the tell.&;quot; Third‚ the government emphasizes the dangers of raw milk and points to foodborne illness outbreaks as evidence. What officials never include alongside data about alleged raw-milk outbreaks is data about outbreaks involving pasteurized dairy. A recent systematic review analyzing dairy outbreaks in the U.S. and Canada between 2007 and 2020‚ indeed‚ had interesting results. It found: Thirty-two disease outbreaks were linked to dairy consumption. Twenty outbreaks involving unpasteurized products resulted in 449 confirmed cases of illness‚ 124 hospitalizations‚ and five deaths. Twelve outbreaks involving pasteurized products resulted in 174 confirmed cases of illness‚ 134 hospitalizations‚ 17 deaths‚ and seven fetal losses. That's right: More deaths associated with outbreaks connected to pasteurized dairy than to raw dairy. Statistically speaking‚ the data can't be compared directly because most people in the U.S. and Canada consume pasteurized dairy‚ and thus deaths from unpasteurized dairy are a much smaller percentage of overall consumers. But the point to remember is this: There is risk associated with consuming both raw dairy and pasteurized dairy — just as there is risk with almost everything in life. &;quot;Every food has risks. There are outbreaks with greens‚ fruit — there is no food without risk. Even pasteurized milk‚&;quot; Bass told Blaze News. &;quot;We think that there is a way to live a risk-free life‚ but there's always risk. &;quot;There's no risk-free choice‚&;quot; she said. Unfortunately‚ the government and the &;quot;experts&;quot; only emphasize the risk and potential harmful consequences of raw dairy while ignoring altogether the potential risks of pasteurized dairy‚ which is why the FDA has officially prohibited the interstate commerce of raw dairy since 1987. Finally‚ there is a difference between raw milk harvested specifically for human consumption and the pasteurized milk that ends up on most grocery store shelves. &;quot;It's filthy milk‚ I wouldn't produce it ever‚ and guess what&;#63; You need to pasteurize it because it's going to make somebody sick‚&;quot; McAfee said of pasteurized milk. &;quot;That's what the FDA‚ in their minds‚ in their reality‚ thinks is raw milk‚&;quot; he explained. &;quot;What you have is two paradigms that are true at the same time: My milk is safe without pathogens because I set up the conditions for that‚ I test for it‚ and I'm preparing for human consumption — not pasteurization. Their paradigm is correct because their definition of raw milk is that it's filthy. &;quot;You have two different realities‚ two different structures‚ two different protocols‚ two different standards and practices‚&;quot; McAfee said. &;quot;They're rendering filthy milk 'safe‚' but it's not really safe. It's highly allergenic and hard to digest. So what they've got is a filthy milk problem that they're fixing with pasteurization that's killing all of the bio-actives that consumers want.&;quot; In fact‚ McAfee said most dairy farms have no incentives to produce raw milk for human consumption. &;quot;It's not their fault. Their milk design is to have pathogens‚ their [design] is to put as much milk as they can into the channel — they're being paid by the weight of the milk‚ not the bacterial standards‚&;quot; McAfee said. Should you consider raw milk&;#63; Bass told Blaze News that she transitioned her family to raw dairy when her first child was in the weaning process. She did her research‚ became confident about the benefits of raw dairy‚ and &;quot;never looked back.&;quot; Bass has a humble spirit. She doesn't want to push her view on others‚ and she doesn't want to engage in the politics of the issue. But if you consider drinking raw dairy‚ Bass wants you to know that you're more than capable of understanding the issue — despite what &;quot;experts&;quot; may claim — and that you are the best advocate for yourself and your family. &;quot;Get some hard facts‚ not just fearmongering; get some real data and statistics‚ and you're going to find there have been sicknesses and deaths from both [raw dairy and pasteurized dairy]‚&;quot; she said. &;quot;But‚ either way‚ it's extremely low.&;quot; That skill — questioning with boldness the narrative that is pushed on you — translates to many areas of life. &;quot;When you take a look at the actual numbers and you look at the actual studies‚ you'll find that a lot of times the narrative can be questioned‚ and there are a lot of benefits to learning things yourself and not just trusting what is told to you‚&;quot; Bass said. &;quot;I encourage people to be that advocate for themselves.&;quot; &;quot;It's important to ask questions because we live in this culture where it [is] always whatever the experts say‚&;quot; she explained. &;quot;I see what the experts say — there's a lot of fearmongering with a lot of‚ 'This will happen to you. This is scary.' And then when you actually look at the statistics‚ you're like‚ 'Oh‚ that's not at all what I was expecting.'&;quot; If you ask Saladino‚ he will tell you that you should considering drinking raw milk not only because it's beneficial for your health and is ancestrally consistent‚ but it's just plain tasty. &;quot;Raw milk is delicious&;#33;&;quot; Saladino says. McAfee agrees. &;quot;If you poll people about why they drink raw milk‚ the No. 1 thing they're going to say: It's delicious&;#33; 'It tastes good. It settles in my belly. It feels good. It makes me feel good‚'&;quot; McAfee explained. No matter what choice you make‚ remember to question with boldness‚ seek the truth‚ and cultivate the health of your family.

A federal appeals court has struck down a West Virginia law protecting the fairness of school athletics. In 2021‚ West Virginia passed the &;quot;Save Women's Sports Act‚&;quot; becoming one of the first states in the United States to protect the fairness of sports. The law requires that every student athlete must participate on the team or in the event congruent with their &;quot;biological sex as indicated on the athlete’s original birth certificate issued at the time of birth.&;quot; The law doesn't ban transgender-identifying students from participating in sports altogether. Rather‚ it bans biological boys from playing on teams with biological girls and vise versa. This is an important distinction. On Tuesday‚ the 4th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled in a 2–1 decision that the law violates the Title IX rights of Becky Pepper-Jackson‚ a biological boy who identifies as a girl. The court ruled: The question before us is whether the Act may lawfully be applied to prevent a 13-year-old transgender girl who takes puberty blocking medication and has publicly identified as a girl since the third grade from participating in her school’s cross country and track teams. We hold it cannot. Pepper-Jackson and the American Civil Liberties Union‚ which represents Pepper-Jackson‚ have been litigating the law for years. The ruling is a clear win for them.But the ruling is also narrow because the circumstances of the case are unique. Pepper-Jackson has been living as a girl for more than half of his life‚ which includes years of taking puberty blockers and even having the sex on his birth certificate changed. Whether the court would have ruled differently in the case of a student athlete who only recently began identifying as transgender is unknown.Still‚ Judge G. Steven Agee wrote in a scathing dissent the majority's opinion has profound consequences.&;quot;The majority’s determination that transgender girls are similarly situated to biological girls regardless of any potential advantage‚ and therefore that separating sports teams by biological sex is discrimination against transgender girls‚ has far reaching implications under Title IX‚&;quot; he wrote.Agee continued:In short‚ it means that states cannot exclude transgender girls from biological girls’ sports teams even when the transgender girls have gone through puberty and it is even clearer that they have a significant physiological advantage over biological girls. And allowing transgender girls — regardless of any advantage — as participants in biological girls’ sports turns Title IX on its head and reverses the monumental work Title IX has done to promote girls’ sports from its inception.After the ruling‚ West Virginia Attorney General Patrick Morrisey (R) vowed to continue the right to protect women's sports. That fight will presumably include an appeal to the Supreme Court.That appeal‚ Agee said‚ cannot come soon enough.&;quot;One can only hope that the Supreme Court will take the opportunity with all deliberate speed to resolve these questions of national importance‚&;quot; the judge wrote.Like Blaze News&;#63; Bypass the censors‚ sign up for our newsletters‚ and get stories like this direct to your inbox.
