The Times of India:
Jenna Longoria, a women's health and hormone expert from outside of Austin, Texas, claims she was denied boarding on a United Airlines flight at San Francisco International Airport on Wednesday morning. Longoria, who was travelling with her 16-month-old son and mother, accidentally misgendered a flight attendant multiple times while boarding the plane.
"When (the flight attendant), who identifies as a woman, gave me our boarding passes, I said 'thank you, sir.' That is it. That is it," Longoria told The Post, still perplexed by the incident. The flight attendant became upset and prevented Longoria's mother, who had been assisting with her son, from proceeding past the gate.
Another male flight attendant corrected her, saying, "she's wearing a dress." Longoria, focused on getting her crying son safely on the plane, admitted on social media that she's "not very versed with pronouns."
Ultimately, Longoria, her son, and her mother were not allowed to board the plane, which departed with their luggage and medications still on board. United Airlines claimed in a statement to The Post that the family was prohibited from boarding "following a discussion about having too many carry-on items," which Longoria vehemently denied.
In the UK, Maya Forestater was fired for expressing her completely factual opinion that men are not women. She sued and eventually judges agreed she had the right to express fact-opinions, and was entitled to 100,000 pounds in back pay.
But the police have never stopped investigating her. Turns out she's been under investigation for a year for making a critical remark about trans doctor.
The alleged offence, which carries a punishment of up to two years in prison, related to a post she wrote on X about Dr Kamilla Kamaruddin, a trans woman and former GP.After transitioning, Kamaruddin had written of being allowed by patients to perform "more intimate examinations that they did not let me to do when I was a male GP".
Forstater's tweet, posted in June last year, said that Kamaruddin "enjoys intimately examining female patients without their consent".
Her point, which was explained in a linked blog post she had written earlier, was that many women specifically choose to go to a female doctor because they are more comfortable being examined by another woman rather than a man. In this case it wasn't clear if all of this doctor's patients, especially new patients who simply saw the doctor listed as female, were aware. Even if they were aware, would they be willing to risk being labeled transphobes for refusing to have a trans-woman examine them?
Orwell laughs.
Ron DeSantis signed a law requiring hospitals' emergency rooms to ask about immigration status when checking in a patient. Their Medicaid spending on illegal aliens plummeted.
Ron DeSantis signed a law that required hospitals to ask the immigration status of patients to prevent paying out the nose for Medicaid to illegal aliens, and, lo and behold, the law had its intended effect.
The real shocker here, however, is that Politico is the outlet that covered it.
Here's the subhead from the leftwing news site:
A POLITICO analysis found that Medicaid expenditures for undocumented immigrants in Florida has dropped dramatically since Gov. Ron DeSantis signed a law directing hospitals to ask patients about their immigration status.
Florida has stopped having to fund hospital visits for illegal aliens simply by ASKING IF THEY'RE ILLEGAL!
The solutions to all of our immigration problems are a lot easier than they appear.
An antifa "Super Soldier" informed the judge that he was now a "non-binary" at his sentencing hearing.
He was convicted of conspiracy to riot due to his part in attacking Trump supporters (and police) in San Diego in 2021. Although he wore "body armor" from head to toe, he was easily identified, as his costume as a "Super Soldier" was distinctive and he is 6'2", 225 pounds.
He also admitted he beat up Trump supporters and cops in a text he sent to his antifa terrorist pals.
Knowing that he was about to be convicted, he out-of-the-blue pleaded the defense of mental insanity. He claimed he had "dissociated" from reality and had no idea what happened at the riot.
It didn't work. He was convicted.
He's got a new gambit: Maybe the judge will let me go if I say I'm a tranny.
From Andy Ngo at the Post-Millennial:
"This weekend I came out as non-binary to my friends and received the most loving support I could have possibly imagined," White wrote on Instagram on June 18. "Please do what you can to be there for your queer, non-binary and trans comrades." Accompanying the long statement was a photo of White without his beard and wearing an anti-law enforcement hat...
White's sudden claim of being trans non-binary raises questions about whether it is a cynical move for him to be able to request special accommodation away from the general male prison population if he is incarcerated. In California, men who identify as trans are able to request housing among the women's estate.
The weekend before his sentencing, he came out as "non-binary."
All he did was shave his beard.
This character was just sentenced on Monday, I think. He got the maximum of two years. The judge says he wish he could have given him more, because he was a ringleader and also expressed no remorse for beating a woman.
Oh but wait he is a girl. He said so, see?
The judge didn't completely accept the line the left peddles to protect antifa from investigation as a terrorist network -- that it's just an "idea" and that it's a "leaderless organization." The judge pointed out that antifa sure seems to be getting funding from somewhere, and that this funding allows them to "pop up" in different jurisdictions.
Untalented and plain actress Tatiana Maslany -- star of the fan-favorite Marvel series that everyone loves, She-Hulk -- declares that parents have no right to weigh in on their child's (fake) gender identity.
Saskatchewan apparently passed a bill giving parents the right to consent or object to schools "transitioning" their children. This was a bridge too far for the Maslany, who has a face like a Pollack bricklayer.
Unsurprisingly, the passage of this bill did not fly well with Maslany, herself a noted LGBTQ youth activist.
Speaking to reporters following a June appearance at an event held by Canada's Walk of Fame at the Hotel Saskatchewan, Maslany criticized its contents, "It should not be in the control of parents how a child identifies."
"How a child knows them self to be," said the actress. "That isn't a parent's place -- it's an overreach. It's an overreach on the part of the provincial government to legislate that. It's absurd."
The She-Hulk star further opined, "Children have rights. Children are human beings who have knowledge and who know themselves and we should be taking cues from them. In so many ways, we should be taking cues from them. Listening to them, empowering them to know who they are and to name that."
"It's their right," she concluded. "It's not the parent's right."
By the way, they're doing another series of Orphan Black, called Orphan Black: Echoes, this time without Tatiana Maslany and her stupid high-school-talent-show overacting. They've replaced her with certified hottie Krysten Ritter, who herself was a Marvel actress, back when we all were somehow not ashamed to be watching stupid superhero crap. She played Jessica Jones.
Orphan Black wasn't my jam, but I know some people liked it.
Welcome to the Soros Zone of Philadelphia.
Biden just hired a new communications official, and I'm sure you're thinking what I am: This must be a real Middle-American centrist with good values and common sense, not one of those bizarre stereotypes that the Reich Wing Media paints all liberals as.
And Huzzah! We're all right:
The British police finally take one single action against the terrorists of Just Stop Oil:
