SCOTUS Rejects Trump Push to Toss E. Jean Carroll Verdict
Topic: Violence Against Women
Source: AP News
Justices decline to take up the case. The Supreme Court on Monday rejected a push by President Trump to throw out a jury's finding that he sexually abused the writer E. Jean Carroll at a New York City department store in the mid-1990s and later defamed her. The high court declined to take up the case in a brief, unexplained order, per the AP. Trump's lawyers had argued that allegations leading to the $5 million verdict were propped up by "highly inflammatory" evidentiary rulings, including those that allowed the testimony of two other women who accused Trump of sexual abuse decades ago. Trump has denied all three women's allegations.

Hooters Shutters Every Location In Four Blue States. Iconic chicken-wing chain Hooters, famous for buxom waitresses wearing skimpy orange and white uniforms, appears to be throwing in the towel on its 35-year struggle to stay politically incorrect. As Ben Sellers writes for HeadlineUSA.com, while some restaurants, like Cracker Barrel, have successfully fought off the takeover of corporate wokeness, Hooters recently announced the closure of its last New York location, the New York Post reported.

Archdiocese to Pay $395M to Abuse Victims, Make Changes

Terms include San Francisco archbishop writing an apology. The Archdiocese of San Francisco has agreed to pay $395 million to about 530 people who say they were sexually abused as children by priests. The settlement, which was announced Monday, would end the archdiocese's bankruptcy case, Reuters reports. The archdiocese also pledged to release the names of priests it deems credibly accused and to tighten safeguards meant to prevent future abuse. "We remain committed to the healing and care of survivors," Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone said. The deal will need the approval of a federal bankruptcy judge.

How Canada Jumped the Rails on ’Gender-Affirming Care’
Topic: Political Correctness
Source: The Quillette
The career arc of Canadian Paediatric Society president Natasha Johnson helps explain why her country has become such an outlier in the treatment of trans-identified children. The organisation still stands by its original 2023 Position Statement on the subject of GAC—a document that exhorts Canadian doctors to adopt an “affirming approach to routine health care provision for all youth,” and enshrine gender-affirming care as the unquestioned “standard of care for transgender or gender-diverse youth.” The timing of the CPS Position Statement was unfortunate, as it came less than a year before Dr Hilary Cass, a former president of Britain’s Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health, released a blockbuster Report that exhaustively analysed the international evidence for and against gender-affirming care.

Michael Pratt and his associates are in prison — but women targeted in his GirlsDoPorn sex trafficking operation say the exploitation never truly ended. Now, they’re pushing for reforms to prevent others from ever enduring the same fate. Nitzia was still in high school when she first came across the fake modeling ads. It was 2017, and she was just 17 years old. Posted to the website Craiglist, the listing featured an image of a woman in a bikini, she recalled in an interview. It was billed as an opportunity for aspiring models to get into the industry. For Nitzia, who had a bit of experience already, it felt like a big break.

Netherlands Euthanises Sick Child Under 12 For First Time In History
Topic: Children and Family
Source: AOL
A 12-year-old girl died by euthanasia in the Netherlands, according to a new report from the country's health minister documenting cases of individuals choosing medically assisted death. The girl, whose identity was not disclosed, had been diagnosed with an unspecified "severe illness." In correspondence to parliament, Dutch health minister Sophie Hermans presented an annual report examining all late-term abortions and medically assisted euthanasia cases involving children. Until two years ago, the nation permitted euthanasia only for newborns and for individuals aged 12 and above, provided they were enduring unbearable suffering with no realistic prospect of relief. Patients under 18 also required consent from a parent or legal guardian.

Police Investigating 4,000 Cases. London Mayor repeatedly dodged questions last year... The London mayor who once insisted there was "no indication" of grooming gangs now faces explosive new scrutiny after a police review uncovered thousands of previously sidelined child sexual exploitation files. The Metropolitan Police has identified more than 4,000 potential child sexual exploitation cases across London that may require reopening. These stem from roughly 12,000 reports dating back to 2010, with about one in three previously closed after police or prosecutors took no further action.

NY judge rules in favor of trans athlete booted from women's track meet

A New York judge ruled against a university that blocked a transgender athlete from competing in a women’s track meet, saying that state law banning discrimination based on gender identity supersedes President Trump’s executive order on female sports. State Judge Richard McNally rejected a motion from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute to dismiss the lawsuit brought by Sadie Schreiner, a transgender runner who was barred from a 2025 women’s track meet hosted by the university.

With ‘Supergirl’ Officially Dead on Arrival in Theaters
Topic: Political Correctness

We Perform an Autopsy to Show What Happened. With a beefy budget of at least $175 million, and marketing costs on top of that, factoring in the 50 percent split with theaters means this film had to clear probably $425-450 million to break even. As it looks, reaching a global box office total of $200 million is a hopeful expectation. So as the reality of those figures settled on Sunday, the movie’s backers and fans lashed out at those it blamed for this failure. What is provable is that these revisionist attempts falter when looking at the data. So first we’ll compile the claims being made, then look at the metrics that dispel those excuses, showing that what was on display was a dysfunctional product that impressed few people.

Elite Strategy 101: Stoking the Culture War, Reinventing the Enemy
Topic: Political Correctness

Comedian Tim Dillon recently expressed bafflement at the strategy of shoving Pride™ propaganda down every orifice of the body politic, fervently employed by the tranny activist corps with the purported aim of improving public relations for the alphabet people: “It makes more people angry. That’s why gay marriage has lost 11 points in support. More people are annoyed… They’re like, why is my bank gay? When did my bank come out as gay?... What are we doing? This doesn’t make anybody’s life better. It is just virtue-signaling horse-shit that ends up doing the exact opposite of what they want. They think it increases acceptance. It decreases it. Because you’re shoving a worldview down someone’s throat.”

A Biohacker Gives Birth
Topic: Children and Family

When I got pregnant, my quest for optimization got weirder and more wonderful. My six-pack began to disappear in the fourth month of my pregnancy, with the final pack officially vanishing in week 15. My disappearing abs were just one of many demoralizing trade-offs my career as a biohacker took when I got pregnant. Since adolescence, I have been genetically blessed with visible abs. While I would like to credit my hard work, six-packs are mostly just the product of weight distribution and low body fat. You cannot control where your body adds fat, even subcutaneous fat. But optimizing my body's performance has been a delightful hobby since the lockdown, when I locked in on biohacking.

A transgender biological male former prostitute is running for mayor of Hamilton, Ontario, and if that wasn’t crazy enough, recent campaign footage shows him giving his speeches using a sock puppet with googly eyes.“Scarlett Gillespie,” who previously went by the name “Jelena Vermilion,” currently serves as the executive director of the Sex Workers’ Action Program (SWAP) Hamilton and has long advocated for sex workers’ rights, housing issues, and trans-related causes.

The LGBT movement is being consumed by ‘pro-Palestinian’ activists
Topic: Gay/Lesbian Issues

The LGBT movement is currently being consumed by the antisemitic “pro-Palestinian” movement, to the point that even the biggest champions of the former now find themselves as targets of their left-wing base. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) was booed at a New York City “Pride” parade on Sunday by the gathered left-wing activists. On its face, this would seem like the kind of crowd that would be most accepting of Schumer. As Schumer told his hecklers, “I was the first senator to ever march in this parade, in 1999. And I haven’t missed one yet.” No element of the Democratic Party coalition has a bigger ally in Schumer than the LGBT “community.”

British educator, author, and prominent advocate for education reform, Katharine Birbalsingh, delivered a recent speech for The Alliance for Responsible Citizenship, and her frank assessment of modern education has taken the internet by storm. In her address at the ARC Conference, Birbalsingh, Britain’s “strictest headmistress,” argued that the West is experiencing a profound civilizational decline driven by the erosion of traditional moral values in the younger generation. Citing incidents like the death of Henry Novak and the assassination of Charlie Kirk, she blamed “white guilt” and an oppressor-versus-oppressed worldview taught in schools and reinforced online.

“White Time”: Dutch Professor Argues that Time Itself is Racist
Topic: Political Correctness
Source: Jonathan Turley
We have previously discussed how many professors seem to compete in finding new forms of racism in every facet of society and education. Astrophysics, math, runoffs, science, statistics, and meritocracy have all been denounced as racist. In this academic cottage industry, professors secure publications and speaking opportunities by identifying racism in the expressions, images, or entire fields. It was, therefore, only a matter of time before time itself was declared racist.

Are The Epstein Survivors Being Exploited Yet Again?

Follow the money... On February 8, 2026, the advocacy group World Without Exploitation launched a 40-second public service announcement during the Super Bowl featuring Jeffrey Epstein survivors demanding the full release of federal files related to Epstein's sex trafficking network. The Epstein survivors held up pictures of themselves when they were initially abused by Epstein as minors or young women. "After years of being kept apart, we're standing together," they said. The background was pitch black, and the music was haunting. The PSA ended with the following: "Stand With Us. Tell Attorney General Pam Bondi IT'S TIME FOR THE TRUTH."

California's $20 Million Attempt To Silence Medical Speech

This is not consumer protection. It is political warfare... In a trial set to begin June 24, California's Attorney General Rob Bonta is asking a court to do something that should alarm every American, regardless of where they stand on abortion: punish nonprofit organizations with ruinous fines for speaking about a lawful medical treatment. The target is not fraud. These charities offer their services for free. It is not patient harm. There is no evidence of any patient being harmed. It is not even illegal conduct. The underlying treatment remains perfectly legal. The target is speech.

Military Depoliticization, Hegseth, And DEI

...he depoliticizes our military’s ranks by eradicating the very most political doctrine. As I read and hear the usual cavalcade of woke, retired Democrat generals and admirals like McRaven, McCaffrey, Franken, and others falsely claiming that Pete Hegseth is “politicizing” the senior ranks of the U.S. military, inside my head, I am screaming in rage at the impunity with which they spread this pernicious and wholly inaccurate falsehood. Hegseth is doing EXACTLY THE OPPOSITE as he depoliticizes our military’s ranks by eradicating the very most political doctrine to ever infect the U.S. military since the U.S. Civil War: so-called “Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion,” or “DEI.”
