'Way to cheat, bro!' Trans high school athlete places 5th in girls' race after being ranked 172 as a boy



A male cross-country runner from a Maine high school competed against girls and was accused of cheating after he placed fifth, despite being ranked lower than 170th in his district when racing against boys.

Soren Stark-Chessa from Maine Coast Waldorf School, a private school in Freeport, Maine, was reportedly ranked 172nd as a freshman boy, according to the Daily Mail.

As a ophomore, Stark-Chessa began racing against girls after allegedly transitioning genders. The athlete is now reportedly ranked fourth in the female rankings and recently finished fifth at the Maine XC Festival of Champions. The boy finished with a race time of 18:11.35, bumping a young girl named Abby out of a top-five finish.

If still racing against boys, this time would have placed Stark-Chessa 143rd.

According to the Daily Caller, Stark-Chessa's best finish as a boy was 14th, but against girls he has a victory and a second-place finish. His victory was with a time of 18:55, a full 1:42 faster than the female in second place.

In a video posted to X, a member of a racing crowd is heard saying "way to cheat, bro!" as Stark-Chessa runs toward the finish line.

Cheater boy from Freeport, ME Soren Stark-Chessa displaces the 11th placed girl from a medal, as expected. \n\nHe finishes the girls race 5th. \n\nPathetic. \n\nThe #MainePrincipalsAssociation are woke morons.

Journalist Shawn McBreairty reported that the top 10 finishers received a trophy, which meant one young woman went home extremely disappointed.

"It is not fair to a female who has trained hard," McBreairty claimed a female competitor told him. "Males are biologically faster than females, with testosterone. They need to run under their biological gender."

A Maine mother who has children in track competitions also gave comments of disapproval.

"Men are simply larger, faster, and stronger than their female counterparts," Katherine Collins said. "To compare, the top-ranked female high school runner in all of New England would only be ranked 47th among high school boys in Maine."

The fraud, Soren Stark-Chessa from Freeport, ME thinks that braiding his hair makes his massive physical advantages less obvious?\n\nHe started the race. I hope the girls dump his ass. \n\nJust tragic to these young women. The 11th placed girl won\u2019t get a trophy because of this\u2026

Another parent, a physician with two children in Maine high school cross country competitions, said that "if a boy, competing in a sporting event, were found to be using performance enhancing drugs, he would be disqualified due to the presumption of unfair competitive advantage."

"If instead, that same boy chose to compete as a girl, he would not only not be disqualified due to his enormous presumptive competitive advantage, he would be lauded, feted, and applauded," the father added.

The child's athletic director, Susan Sonntag, defended the school's decision to allow a boy to compete against girls.

"We support all our students at Maine Coast Waldorf School and are proud that our students are given the opportunity to participate in all of our school programs."

The administrator said that the school has adhered to the Maine law that prohibits "unlawful educational discrimination."

This young man, Soren Stark-Chessa, from Maine Coast Waldorf School, was ranked 172nd as a freshman in boy's cross country last year. This year, competing as a \u201cgirl,\u201d he finished 5th in the Maine XC Festival of Champions.

Leftist ideologue claims she successfully sabotaged right-wing dating site, having catfished then reported users to FBI



The prospect of a popular right-wing dating app where like-minded people could meet up so enraged one leftist, she donned a false persona and set about the ruin of the men thereon seeking love.

Caitlin Berg claimed on TikTok that she found her way onto the invite-only app, the Right Stuff, by playing a "yeehaw'd version" of herself, reported the Daily Mail.

The Right Stuff touts itself as an app whereon conservatives can "connect in authentic and meaningful ways."

"Other dating apps have gone woke," says the company's site. "We bring people together with shared values and similar passions."

The app was founded by John McEntee, who served as a personal aide to former President Donald Trump, and Daniel Huff, a Trump appointee in the Department of Housing and Urban Development, reported The Hill.

PayPal co-founded and invested $1.5 million into the app, which launched in late 2022.

Users must agree not to "use information gleaned in whole or in part from the Service to harm the reputation of or cast unwanted publicity upon any other user" and not to "misrepresent your identity, age, current or previous positions, qualifications, or affiliations with a person or entity."

Berg, who in recent days has made her personal site private and ostensibly deleted her socials (including her TikTok), explained in a now-deleted TikTok video, that she had called herself Keightlynne Brandy and sent a message to the Right Stuff saying, "I just joined from NYC, but I don't have any friends on the app and can't get referred. ... As a new New Yorker, I would love the chance to meet like-minded individuals in such a liberal city."

The company provided Berg with an access code just hours later, which she used to connect with various unsuspecting individuals who had, unlike "Keightlynne Brandy," provided accurate identifying information.

The scammer used dehumanizing language to describe the individuals she encountered on the app, calling men "rodents from the depths of hell."

The Daily Mail noted that Berg's mission evolved beyond denigrating strangers after she realized that some among those looking for human connections on the app were individuals who had been at the Jan. 6, 2021, protest at the U.S. Capitol building.

Berg revealed to her TikTok followers that she began doing pro-bono snitching on behalf of the state.

She reportedly took screenshots of self-identified Jan. 6 protesters' profiles, corroborated their identities with the Instagram or LinkedIn accounts she had them link her to, then provided their information to the FBI.

One of the dating app's profile prompts, used to help characterize users for prospective suitors, appears to have made easy work for Berg's snitching.

Shawn McCreesh of New York Magazine, noted that "January 6th was ... ," "Favorite liberal lie ... ," and "Biggest risk I've ever taken ..." were among the prompts.

\u201cPrompts on the conservative dating app "The Right Stuff" ...\u201d

Some on Twitter were skeptical around of the app's launch, with one suggesting in September 2022, "This has got to be an FBI dragnet."

In October, liberal TikToker Cheyenne Hunt ridiculed a user who indicated the app might be a honeypot after he had been contacted by the FBI after using the app for "hardly an evening."

Dan Huff, the app's co-founder, told the Mail, "Leftists are attacking our app because it’s taken off in recent months. Their lives are miserable, and they can’t stand to see other people happy."

Berg indicated in a 2021 blog post that she supported then-candidates Joe Biden and Kamala Harris in 2020, looked forward to "progressive policy making," and was previously "inspired by Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign."

The dating app scammer also admitted to having been "radicalized" and failing at a career in politics only to "pursue comedy and theatre production full time."

Father sues school district that called police on him while he was reviewing documents from public records request



A Maine father and parent rights activist filed a lawsuit against Hermon School District on Friday after district officials called the police on him while he was reviewing documents from a public records request, the Daily Caller News Foundation reported.

Shawn McBreairty sued the Hermon, Maine, school district for allegedly withholding documents from a Freedom of Access Act request. He claimed the district refused to completely hand over superintendent-training materials and communications related to the district’s Gay Sexuality Alliance club, a national LGBT+ group.

According to the lawsuit, Superintendent Micah Grant initially agreed to allow McBreairty to review the training materials in person. However, McBreairty claimed that Grant cut his time with the documents short and called the police when the father refused to leave.

McBreairty submitted three public-records requests, including one for superintendent-training materials provided by the law firm Drummond Woodsum, which the lawsuit alleged included a presentation titled “Avoiding Disaster In Court.”

He also requested information regarding a board member who owned a consulting group allegedly providing LGBT+ training to school districts.

McBreairty’s third public-records request sought communications between two district librarians regarding the school’s GSA club. The complaint claimed that the librarians created an LGBT+ display on the high-school campus that featured 40 transgender books.

Under Maine law, the district was required to allow McBreairty to first review the librarians’ communication for a timed period before requiring payment. However, the lawsuit stated that the district immediately required McBreairty to pay to view the exchange.

McBreairty was allowed to review the superintendent-training materials in person but was not provided a copy or allowed to take photographs because of copyright concerns.

Less than an hour into reviewing the documents, Grant called the police to escort McBreairty out of the school after he refused to leave, the lawsuit claimed. Once law enforcement arrived, McBreairty agreed to leave the premises, but he argued that Grant never gave him a time limit to view the documents.

“I went to the superintendent’s office, and we had a discussion about copyright,” McBreairty told the DCNF. “He said he would give me the binder, and at that point, I’m like, ‘Okay, I’ll just take the binder and write as much stuff down as I can.’ He sat four feet behind me, directly over my shoulder, watching me like I was on prison work detail. I guarantee you he doesn’t do that with other citizens who asked for anything from FOAA requests. He doesn’t want people to know what’s in there because there’s some juicy stuff in there.”

The school district filed a lawsuit against McBreairty in May 2022, alleging that he was “bullying and harassing” school employees by accusing a faculty advisor in the GSA club of “grooming children.”

“These public K-12 Maine schools and national schools, their number one goal is to talk to kids about Critical Race Theory, hyper sexualization, social emotional learning, which is all really leftist pedagogy of the day,” McBreairty stated. “Meanwhile, math, science, English scores have never been lower.”

Neither Hermon School District nor Grant responded to a request for comment, the DCNF reported.

\u201cWhen the ONLY thing that these leftist schools boards will listen to is a judge, I ask for your support, as I\u2019m currently filing this lawsuit as an individual against a behemoth, who\u2019s withholding public info and my 1A rights. Please pitch in. https://t.co/qWMAJjPvmf\u201d

Canadian military demands US podcaster delete episodes featuring sniper who was fired for refusing vaccine and mask mandates

Canadian military demands US podcaster delete episodes featuring sniper who was fired for refusing vaccine and mask mandates



Canadian military authorities demanded that an American podcaster delete episodes of his show that featured a former Canadian sniper, claiming sensitive information was revealed, as reported by the New York Post.

Dallas Alexander, a former counterterrorism sniper with the Canadian military, mentioned that he is the shooter who made a record 2.2-mile sniper kill of an ISIS fighter in 2017.

The record has long been of legend, and Alexander was not named in the original reports.

The podcaster, Shawn Ryan of the "Shawn Ryan Show," is an ex-Navy SEAL with over one million subscribers to his YouTube channel.

Ryan posted an explanation on Twitter, in part saying "I want to be perfectly clear, I am not an ANTI VAX individual. I believe in freedom of choice and in freedom of speech. This is why I cut anything that could have possibly been considered 'classified' from part 2 of the episode."

Ryan also posted the cease-and-desist letter sent from the Canadian Special Operations Forces Command (CANSOFCOM), which stated “your podcast series contained information or material that has been properly classified and protected, and which is sensitive information such that its public release is injurious to Canadian national security, national deference, and international relations."

It continues on the second page, "[Canadian Armed Forces/Department of National Defense] is willing to work with you to review your podcast episodes ... to enable you to publish versions that do not contain classified information."

\u201cI'm sure many of you are aware that I pulled the JTF2 Sniper / Dallas Alexander SRS Episode due to a cease and desist from the Canadian Gov. I believe that this is their attempt to silence Dallas from explaining that he left the command for refusing the covid vaccine.\nHowever, it\u2026\u201d
— Shawn Ryan (@Shawn Ryan) 1676416433

Alexander spoke out against and refused Canadian vaccine and mask mandates and was fired from the armed forces.

"I'm not doing it," Alexander recalled saying when asked to wear a mask in front of his superiors.

Alexander recalled asking if everyone in the room was going to be wearing masks, and when he was told "yes," he replied, "Then that means you're all safe if they work, and if they don't they're not safe, then why are you telling me to put one on?"

After being escorted from the building by a superior, Alexander says he never returned to work.

Ryan responded by sharing his understanding of Navy SEAL units' reaction to vaccine mandates, saying that "they've demoralized all the units."

The Canadian government is reportedly investigating the unauthorized release of the record-breaking sniper shot video, allegedly released by Ryan.
