Karine Jean-Pierre throws TEMPER TANTRUM over questions about Biden's health



The White House press corps is not happy with Karine Jean-Pierre — as she just can’t seem to stop repeating lies from the White House regarding the president’s health.

“I never answered the question incorrectly,” Jean-Pierre responded to a frustrated member of the press. “That is not true. I was asked about a medical exam, I was asked about a physical, that was in the line of questions that I answered.”

“And I said ‘No, he did not have a medical exam,’ and I still stand by that. Matter of fact, the president still stands by that. He had a verbal check-in, that is something that the president has a couple times a week,” Jean-Pierre continued.

When another reporter asked the name of the doctor with whom President Biden has weekly check-ins, Jean-Pierre got angrier.

“I am telling you right now that I am not sharing, confirming names from here. It is a security reason. I am not going to do that Ed, it doesn’t matter how hard you push me, it doesn’t matter how angry you get with me. I’m not going to confirm a name,” she said.

Pat Gray is confused as to why it’s a “security reason.”

“If she mentions the guy's name, if it’s Dr. Cannard, does that mean people are going to try to kill him? Is that what the security issue is? Are you endangering his life by saying, ‘Yeah, he treated the president?’ This is BS. Come on,” Gray says.

Jean-Pierre then went on to claim that it was for the doctor’s “privacy.”

“It is inappropriate, it is not acceptable,” she added.

“He’s the president’s doctor,” Gray laughs. “That just ruins your career.”

In another press briefing, Jean-Pierre appeared to be on the brink of tears.

“We literally do everything that we can, my team does, that we can, to make sure that we get the answers to you,” she said. “And sometimes we disagree, sometimes we are not in agreement. But you know what, that’s democracy.”

“And so to say that I’m holding information, or allude to anything else, is unfair, is really, really unfair,” she continued. “And I will admit, I will be the first one to admit, sometimes I get it wrong. At least I admit that.”

Then it got worse, as Jean-Pierre told reporters sometimes she doesn’t “have the information,” but again, at least she admits it.

When she was asked whether or not Biden would submit to a cognitive test, Jean-Pierre said more of absolutely nothing.

“Everything that he does day in and day out, as it relates to delivering for the American people, is a cognitive test.”

OBGYN draws analogy between abortion and a person removing a bug that creeps into their ear



An OBGYN who recently made the absurd claim that transgender figure Dylan Mulvaney is a woman has drawn a parallel between an individual having an abortion and removing a bug that has crept into their ear. She similarly drew a comparison to eradicating a bacterial infection.

"People who are like 'but a fetus in you isn't your body so you can't control it and have an abortion' um excuse me but if a bug crawled in your ear are you also forced to host it or do you say wtf get this thing out?! Does the same go for bacterial infections?" Jennifer Lincoln tweeted last week.

The tweet earned pushback on social media.

Someone responded by writing, "I can't believe a real, live doctor thinks a human and a bug are equal and a logical comparison."

"A real, live doctor thinks it's disgusting people think they can force a person to remain pregnant. That's terrible enough. That y'all are mad at my analogy but not forced birth is the tell," Lincoln replied.

"A fetus is a human being with human rights. A bug is not a human being and does not have human rights. Yes, the same goes for the non-human bacterial infection," the pro-life organization Live Action tweeted.

\u201cA fetus is a human being with human rights.\n\nA bug is not a human being and does not have human rights.\n\nYes, the same goes for the non-human bacterial infection.\u201d
— Live Action (@Live Action) 1687184338

"And once a child is born he's like a bug that got in through a window. You should be able to kill him for invading your home and being a nuisance, right?" Babylon Bee CEO Seth Dillon tweeted.

Lincoln includes "she/her" pronouns on her Twitter profile.

She has also tweeted, "Consent to sex is not consent to pregnancy. I know you want it to be that way because you want us to exist solely to make babies and stay home and raise them for you, but that's not how it works."

\u201cConsent to sex is not consent to pregnancy.\n\nI know you want it to be that way because you want us to exist solely to make babies and stay home and raise them for you, but that\u2019s not how it works.\u201d

The White House prominently displayed a Pride flag, but a Republican is proposing a bill that would largely ban displaying non-American flags on federal property



Republican Sen. Roger Marshall of Kansas is proposing a bill to largely prohibit featuring flags other than the U.S. flag on federal property and buildings, according to Fox News Digital.

The outlet reported that the measure would allow for various exceptions, such as for the flag of a visiting diplomat's country and the flag of a lawmaker's state.

"It’s a sad state of affairs when the White House prioritizes their radical social agenda over patriotism," the senator said, according to Fox News Digital. "The American flag stands for liberty and justice for ALL and should never be undermined by anyone, especially the President of the United States."

"Old Glory must reign supreme as a symbol of our nation’s freedom that thousands of our servicemembers, and veterans have fought and died to protect," he noted, according to the outlet. "The One Flag For All Act ensures that the American Flag never gets sidelined for culture wars and political points and remains the sole symbol of our nation's freedom and sacrifices."

\u201cThe American flag should never be undermined. Old Glory must reign supreme as a symbol of our nation\u2019s freedom that thousands of our servicemembers & veterans have fought and died to protect. It is time to ensure the only flag on display on federal property is the American flag.\u201d
— Dr. Roger Marshall (@Dr. Roger Marshall) 1686781334

The White House recently earned criticism for prominently displaying a pro-LGBT flag on the White House with American flags hanging on either side.

In a tweet, Marshall described the move as a "disgrace."

\u201cThis is a disgrace. \n\nNot only is it in breach of US Flag Code, but it\u2019s a glaring example of this White Houses\u2019 incompetence and insistence on putting their social agenda ahead of patriotism.\u201d
— Dr. Roger Marshall (@Dr. Roger Marshall) 1686503543

BlazeTV host Chad Prather blasted the move. "This is DISGRACEFUL. Why is the AMERICAN flag surrounding the pride flag?? This nonsense has to end!!!" he tweeted.

GOP Rep. Chip Roy of Texas also decried the White House's move, saying of the American flag, people "have died for that flag. And they put that flag up to the side, flanking a pride flag on the front of the United States president's house. It's despicable," Roy thundered.

\u201c\u201cWe have a duty\u2026[to stand] up in defense of this country instead of a radical Leftist ideology that results in a pride flag being hung at the same level as the US flag on the front of the White House"\n\n\u201cDoes the flag of the United States mean NOTHING?\u201d #FlagDay\u201d

President Joe Biden has issued a Pride Month proclamation each year since taking office.

Man claims Florida first lady Casey DeSantis made 'a racist fashion statement' by wearing Florida alligator 'WHERE WOKE GOES TO DIE' jacket



Dr. Marvin Dunn, who describes himself on Twitter as a "Historian, author, [and] progressive Democrat," has accused Florida first lady Casey DeSantis of racism because she wore a jacket emblazoned with a design that features an alligator and an outline of the Sunshine State.

Text on the jacket says, "WHERE WOKE GOES TO DIE," a comment that Gov. Ron DeSantis has repeatedly made about Florida.

But while the message simply reflects the couple's conservative views which are also held by millions of other Americans, Dunn claimed that the jacket carries a sinister, racist meaning and that Casey DeSantis was fully cognizant of the supposed message being conveyed by her apparel.

"Casey DeSantis Florida's First Lady makes a racist fashion statement. Black babies as alligator bait was a theme in racist Florida humor of the early 1900s. It's an inside joke. If you are not from Florida, you may not get it. She does. Do you?" Dunn declared. "Casey DeSantis knew what the leather jacket she wore signified in Florida's racist history. Why did she wear it in 85 degrees weather?" he wrote in another tweet.

\u201cCasey DeSantis Florida's First Lady makes a racist fashion statement. Black babies as alligator bait was a theme in racist Florida humor of the early 1900s. It's an inside joke. If you are not from Florida, you may not get it. She does. Do you?\u201d
— Dr. Marvin Dunn (@Dr. Marvin Dunn) 1686079672

In a recent piece titled "Casey DeSantis is the Walmart Melania," Daily Beast executive editor Katie Barker wrote that the "ghastly black leather jacket ... brought to mind nothing so much as the racks of a Red State big-bin store where it would be retailing for $24.99."

Barker trashed the Florida governor and his wife.

After noting that Casey DeSantis had survived a battle against breast cancer, Barker wrote, "Anyone going through that must have strength and grit. Still, we've all met people who stared death in the face and came out the other side incandescently glowing with life and with love.

"Perhaps that is the case in Casey DeSantis' private and personal life, but on the public stage, with that black leather jacket, she’s telling us she stands for something else. She’s telling us she is cheering on a spouse who gets his kicks off targeting his fellow Americans. She’s telling us she’s down with his message of division and dehumanization. She's telling us they are ready for far more power. She's incandescent in her black leather jacket, at her husband's side—both of them seething with hate," Barker wrote.

Elon Musk calls out 'gender-affirming care for minors' as 'pure evil'



Billionaire business tycoon Elon Musk is continuing to speak out against permitting gender-transition measures to be performed on minors, declaring in a tweet that "'gender-affirming care for minors' is pure evil."

Musk made the comment in response to a tweet from Jordan Peterson, who had declared that the "phrase 'gender-affirming' care is a criminally evil lie."

\u201c@jordanbpeterson \u201cgender-affirming care for minors\u201d is pure evil\u201d
— Dr Jordan B Peterson (@Dr Jordan B Peterson) 1685886558

The term refers to measures such as surgeries, cross-sex hormones, and puberty blockers, which do almost the exact opposite of affirming an individual's immutable biological sex.

Musk indicated in a tweet last week that he intends to lobby to "criminalize" the performance of permanent gender-transition measures on kids prior to the age of consent.

"This is a major problem. I will be actively lobbying to criminalize making severe, irreversible changes to children below the age of consent. Shame on those who advocate this! It is utterly contemptible," he declared.

\u201c@TheRabbitHole84 @jimjimmiejames This is a major problem. I will be actively lobbying to criminalize making severe, irreversible changes to children below the age of consent. \n\nShame on those who advocate this! It is utterly contemptible.\u201d
— The Rabbit Hole (@The Rabbit Hole) 1685661825

In an April tweet, Musk said that he believes "we should wait until an individual is mature enough to make their own decisions before other adults make permanent, serious physical changes to them."

On Sunday, Musk responded to a Twitter account called The Rabbit Hole that had tweeted, "'Gender Affirming Care' is in the best of cases a euphemism for a paid yes-man to continually affirm delusions and in the worst of cases a euphemism for putting children on horrible drugs or outright child mutilation."

"It means castration," Musk replied.

\u201c@TheRabbitHole84 It means castration\u201d
— The Rabbit Hole (@The Rabbit Hole) 1685892192

Musk has said that he uses people's preferred pronouns as a matter of "good manners."

"I should note that I do personally use someone's preferred pronouns, just as I use someone's preferred name, simply from the standpoint of good manners," he tweeted.

OBGYNs claim Dylan Mulvaney is a woman



As debate over radical leftist ideology continues to rage, some OBGYNs have publicly made the absurd assertion that Dylan Mulvaney is a woman.

"Is this person a woman?" Ahmad Malik tweeted, sharing photos of Mulvaney, a man who identifies as a transgender woman. Malik's tweet has apparently since been deleted.

"Gynecologist here. The answer is yes. And you're a bigot. Not a good look for a physician," Michele Quinn responded.

Quinn's Twitter profile indicates that she is an "Ob-Gyn, abortion provider," and "minimally-invasive gynecologic surgeon."

\u201cGynecologist here. The answer is yes. And you\u2019re a bigot. Not a good look for a physician\u201d
— Michele Quinn, MD, FACOG (@Michele Quinn, MD, FACOG) 1685886977

Quinn's tweet earned pushback on the social media platform.

"That's a person born a boy with male parts and Y chromosome. Man confirmed," one person wrote in response to her preposterous claim that Mulvaney is a woman.

But Quinn replied by calling the commenter a "bigot" and declaring, "My daughter is trans so you can f*** all the way off. Like seriously. You are a toxic hate mongering blight on humanity."

Jennifer Lincoln, whose website states that she is "an OBGYN whose passion is helping girls, women, and those assigned female at birth understand their bodies and feel empowered to advocate for themselves," also responded to Malik's post by claiming that Mulvaney is a woman. "OBGYN here and the answer is yes. Move on and stop spreading hate," she wrote.

\u201cOBGYN here and the answer is yes.\n\nMove on and stop spreading hate.\u201d
— Dr. Jennifer Lincoln | OBGYN (@Dr. Jennifer Lincoln | OBGYN) 1685912436

Both Quinn and Lincoln include "she/her" pronouns on their Twitter profiles.

Bud Light has been enduring a groundswell of consumer backlash since earlier this year when Mulvaney released content advertising the beer brand. But Anheuser-Busch remains completely supportive of the LGBT agenda. "This year, Bud Light will donate $200,000 to the NGLCC in support of its Communities of Color Initiative," a recent press release states, referring to the National LGBT Chamber of Commerce.

'I'm a pregnant man': British Glamour mag features pregnant transgender cover model, author of children's book about 'The Miracle of Male Birth'



A popular British women's magazine featured a topless woman who identifies as a man on its cover, who referred to herself as a "pregnant man."

The cover model is author Logan Brown, a woman who was once a lesbian but now identifies as queer, or a "trans pregnant man." Fox News reports that in the interview with the magazine, Brown described how she suffered from "really bad mental health" issues as a child. Brown later came out as a lesbian, then decided to explore the "identity of being trans," before finally settling on the identify of queer.

Brown also described that her "accidental" pregnancy came about when she took a break from testosterone treatments due to health reasons. It was during that time that the biological woman was impregnated by her biologically male partner, Bailey Mills, a drag queen who identifies as non-binary.

Glamour magazine reporter Chloe Laws conducted the interview just two weeks before Brown gave birth, describing how the author and her boyfriend first garnered attention online through the "rampant transphobia" of people commenting on Brown's social media pages that "men can’t get pregnant."

Brown, who said she is authoring a book directed at children called "My Daddy’s Belly: The Miracle of Male Birth," told the reporter that she had "been brought up in a very close-knit family, and so to bring a baby into the world in a queer relationship is the best feeling ever."

\u201cLiving proof of what? Logan\u2019s a biological female who got pregnant, as hundreds of millions of biological females do each year\u2026 why are you presenting this as a man getting pregnant which is biologically impossible?\u201d
— Piers Morgan (@Piers Morgan) 1685631021

The 27-year-old described that when she discovered she was pregnant, it felt like all her "manlihood" that she "worked hard for, for so long, just completely felt like it was erased."

"How do you tell your partner, ‘Oh, I’m pregnant, but oh, I’m also your boyfriend as well,’" Brown continued. The writer eventually came to accept the process and declared, "I’m a pregnant man, and we’re very lucky, and I’m proud to do what we’re doing."

Glamour's European editorial director, Deborah Joseph, reportedly said in a statement that the magazine felt Brown would be a perfect cover model for Pride Month. "When we first met Logan and heard his incredible story, we were blown away by his strength and courage. We knew he would be the perfect cover star for our June Pride issue, as a shining example of empowerment, inclusivity and equality."

"Logan and his partner Bailey bringing their beautiful baby into the world is a story of love and acceptance;" the editor continued. Joseph also prophetically added that these are "things that we are sadly often reminded that the world could use a little more of."

\u201cTo answer the question, \u201cWhat is a woman?\u201d I think we first need to understand a woman can be a man who is no longer a woman but can get pregnant like a woman but is a man.\u201d

Dr. Charles Stanley, beloved pastor, prolific author, and pioneering evangelical broadcaster dies at age 90



Dr. Charles Stanley, a longtime megachurch pastor, prolific author, and pioneering evangelical broadcaster, died in his home in Atlanta Tuesday morning, First Baptist Church of Atlanta announced.

Dr. Stanley was 90 years old.

"In Touch Family, this morning, God called our beloved pastor, Dr. Charles Stanley, home to heaven. Dr. Stanley lived a life of obedience and is now receiving the joy of his soul—seeing his Savior face-to-face. Please join us in praying for the Stanley family," the ministry Dr. Stanley first launched nationwide as "The Chapel Hour" in 1978 tweeted Tuesday.

Dr. Stanley ministered as a pastor, teacher, author, and broadcaster for 65 years. He retired as First Baptist Church of Atlanta's senior pastor in 2020, after 50 years of service.

Responses from the faith community and others celebrating Stanley's life quickly flooded social media.

"Our prayers are with the family of Dr. Charles Stanley, who went home to Heaven today at the age of 90. Dr. Stanley was the founder of @InTouchMin and pastored @FirstBaptistATL for 50 years. I appreciate his faithfulness in unashamedly teaching the Word of God. For many who travel, and also during Covid-19 when people couldn’t attend their own churches, Dr. Stanley’s messages on television not only inspired us but fed us spiritually," Franklin Graham, son of Billy Graham and president of Samaritan's Purse tweeted.

"His teaching was solid—He did not compromise on God’s Word like so many others do today. God used him to impact so many lives around the world, and he will be greatly missed. Dr. Stanley and my father @BillyGraham were together on several occasions. They’re pictured here in 1994 in Atlanta, Georgia."

Dr. Stanley is survived by son Andy Stanley, senior pastor at North Point Ministries, daughter Becky Stanley Broderson, six grandchildren, three great-grandchildren, and a half-sister Susie Cox, according to an official obituary on his namesake website.

Dr. Stanley often used the phrase "now, listen," or some variation of it, when delivering a portion of a sermon he was determined to drive home. He also regularly used mnemonic devices to help churchgoers remember crucial points.

"Now listen ... ," Dr. Stanley might begin, if he were addressing people mourning his loss today. He might then follow that with a trio of biblically-backed points encouraging them to take heart, as he was now happily face-to-face with the Savior whose message of hope he shared every chance he got for 65 years.

Elon Musk calls out pronoun declarations as 'virtue-signaling' that bad people use as a 'shield'



The rapid rise of radical leftist gender ideology in recent years has given birth to the bizarre trend of people announcing their preferred pronouns. Billionaire business tycoon Elon Musk has described the pronoun phenomenon as "virtue-signaling" and suggested that bad people use them as a "shield."

"Pronouns are virtue-signaling, so inevitably, as with all virtue-signaling, they will be used as a shield by bad humans," Musk tweeted. "In any event, good manners require using the person’s name, not their pronoun, when referring to them," he added.

\u201c@DrLoupis Pronouns are virtue-signaling, so inevitably, as with all virtue-signaling, they will be used as a shield by bad humans\u201d
— Dr. Anastasia Maria Loupis (@Dr. Anastasia Maria Loupis) 1681619293

Musk made the comments in response to tweets about a suspect in a child pornography case who recently committed suicide — the person apparently included pronouns on his Instagram profile.

An individual who was the suspect of a child pornography investigation committed suicide, New Haven police chief Karl Jacobson informed Hearst Connecticut Media Group last week. Tim Yergeau killed himself just days after authorities investigating a child pornography case mistakenly raided his neighbor's residence, but the media report indicated that the police chief declined to confirm whether Yergeau was the suspect in the case. However, the Hartford Courant reported that Jacobson confirmed that Yergeau was the suspect of the raid related to child pornography. The Courant reported that Jacobson said an internal affairs probe would examine how both raids were carried out and whether the raid on Yergeau's apartment may have impacted his decision to commit suicide.

Yergeau had at some point previously worked for Planned Parenthood of Southern New England, and he included "he/him/his" pronouns on his Instagram profile.

Elon Musk has also recently tweeted, "Any parent or doctor who sterilizes a child before they are a consenting adult should go to prison for life."

"The doctors should know better but my parents were lied to and coerced into giving me surgery and hormones by a team of specialists," Chloe Cole wrote in response to Musk's post. "They were told 'would you rather have a dead daughter or a live son?' This was years before this debate has ignited and before covid so they trusted medical professionals more than they should've. There's a line between well-meaning but deceived parents and parents who are transing their kids for social clout."

Elon Musk agreed with Cole, writing, "Well said."

Surveillance footage shows hospital staff standing their ground during intense Turkish earthquake, fighting to protect babies in incubators



The United Nations emergency relief chief, Martin Griffiths, indicated over the weekend that the death toll from the cataclysmic earthquakes in southeastern Turkey and northern Syria is expected to exceed 56,000 people. Reuters indicated Tuesday that over 40,000 fatalities have already been confirmed.

Thanks to the steely resolve and intestinal fortitude of a handful of hospital staff who stood up when all about them fell, there may be several fewer infants and young children among the dead.

What are the details?

Dr. Fahrettin Koca, the Turkish minister of health, posted two videos to Twitter showing staff at a hospital near the epicenter of one of the major quakes in Gaziantep, Turkey, putting their lives on the line to save vulnerable infants and children.

Koca noted in the first instance that rather than flee during the initial shock on Feb. 6, nurses in the neonatal intensive care unit at Gaziantep İnayet Topçuoğlu Hospital held their ground and worked ardently to prevent the incubators containing babies from tipping over.

\u201cO can al\u0131c\u0131 sars\u0131nt\u0131 s\u0131ras\u0131nda iki hem\u015fire arkada\u015f\u0131m\u0131z unutulmaz bir davran\u0131\u015f g\u00f6sterdi.

— Dr. Fahrettin Koca (@Dr. Fahrettin Koca) 1676162031

In another instance, Koca noted that "our friends working at Gaziantep İnayet Topçuoğlu Hospital saved our sick children at the cost of their lives during the earthquake. There are many examples of this in other hospitals as well. Our people, who started running to the earthquake provinces at the very first moment, did the same."

Nurses and hospital staff can be seen in the second video barreling through the hospital as the lights flicker, debris streams from the ceiling, and the hallways go dark. One woman can be seen racing from room to room, trying to take at least one child to safety:

\u201cGaziantep \u0130nayet Top\u00e7uo\u011flu Hastanesinde g\u00f6revli arkada\u015flar\u0131m\u0131z deprem an\u0131nda canlar\u0131 pahas\u0131na hasta \u00e7ocuklar\u0131m\u0131z\u0131 kurtard\u0131. Bunun ba\u015fka hastanelerimizde de \u00e7ok \u00f6rne\u011fi var. Daha ilk anda deprem illerine ko\u015fmaya ba\u015flayan insanlar\u0131m\u0131z da ayn\u0131 \u015feyi yapt\u0131.\u201d
— Dr. Fahrettin Koca (@Dr. Fahrettin Koca) 1676237352

A Turkish interview with Seyma Alakus, the woman in the second video, was released this week, revealing she and the children survived the ordeal.

The Associated Press reported that the 7.8 magnitude earthquake was centered 20 miles north of Gaziantep. According to authorities, at least 20 aftershocks followed, including one that measured 7.8.

Fox Weather indicated that while the the East Anatolian fault system is regarded to be seismically active, it has only been hit by three quakes of magnitude 6 or higher since 1970.
