Jill Biden Lectures Africans on Safe-Sex and Condoms

(Headline USA) Jill Biden spent her time in Africa lecturing Africans on safe sex and condom use.

She praised young adults for learning about safe sex and dating practices.

Biden has been highlighting U.S.-backed efforts to empower these groups during a five-day, two-country visit to Africa this week.

“These are issues that really all people need to talk about and yet, somehow, they don’t, and the consequences of not talking about it are so dire,” Biden told dozens of young people after talking with them about safe sex, condom use and birth control at the Shujaaz Konnect Festival, a local youth empowerment event.

“So I love seeing the young people here.”

At a tent where young people were having networking-like conversations, they showed her a questionnaire they use to spur discussion. The first question: “What would you say if I told you I had a condom in my pocket right now?”

Biden laughed. “And this is the first time they’re meeting?” she asked.

A Shujaaz representative said such blunt propositions help teenagers and young adults overcome shyness, saying that it’s sometimes easier to ask strangers these types of questions.

“I’m surprised you don’t start with like, ‘What’s your biggest achievement?’ rather than, ‘I have a condom in my pocket,’” the first lady said.

The festival is a collaboration with MTV Staying Alive Foundation, which works with the U.S. Agency for International Development and the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief to help teach young Kenyans how to avoid becoming infected with HIV, which causes AIDS.

Biden, who is on the fourth day of her five-day trip to Namibia and Kenya, has spent the week promoting HIV/AIDS education programs.

Calif. and Wash. Are Hiding Name Changes for Transgenders

Calif. and Wash. Are Hiding Name Changes for Transgenders

(Headline USA) Legislators in California and Washington are trying to keep name changes a secret to enable the fantasies of transgenders.

A bill in Washington would allow “gender expression and identity” as reasons to seal, or keep out of the public record, a future petition for a name change.

A California bill would require the sealing of petitions by minors to change their name and gender on identity documents.

In states where such petitions aren’t sealed, transgender people can be discovered as transgender because their previous names are a matter of public record, just like everyone else who changes their name.

These identities can be discovered when someone is looking on the internet for background information about a person.

Democratic state Sen. Jamie Pedersen is sponsoring the Washington legislation, which passed the Senate this month with bipartisan support and is expected to also pass the House. The bill is modeled on laws in New York and Oregon and would also extend records privacy to refugees, emancipated minors and people who have been granted asylum.

Currently, only people subjected to domestic violence can have their name changes easily sealed in Washington.

Some other states, including California, also make exceptions for victims of crimes like human trafficking, stalking and sexual assault.

Some officials and law enforcement officers worry that criminals who request a name change could escape accountability under the proposals.

The approaches in Washington and California contrast starkly with recent changes in Florida and Texas to observe the number of gender transitions using public records.

The office of Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton last year requested data on how many people had changed the gender information on their driver’s licenses.

The Texas Department of Public Safety found over 16,000 gender changes during the prior two years.

In Florida, Gov. Ron DeSantis asked state universities last month for data on students who had sought or received treatments for gender dysphoria.

#Metoo Accuser of Marilyn Manson Recants False Accusations in Court

(Ezekiel Loseke, Headline USA) Ashley Morgan Smithline, A woman who sued Marilyn Manson for sexual assault, recanted her claims against the rock star in open court, according to Breitbart News.

Smithline claims that she was pressured into making claims against Manson by his ex-girlfriend, Evan Rachel Wood, who accused Manson of similar acts to participate in the #Metoo slander festival of 2017, according to Buzzfeed News.

She reported that Wood and Esmé Bianco, who played a prostitute in the hit HBO series “Game of Thrones,” told her about Manson’s sexual assaults on them on “numerous occasions.”

Smithline asserted that Wood, Bianco, and others inquired about whether Manson had done the same things to her. She says that they told her she “may just be misremembering what happened” or “repressing [her] memories of what happened.”

“While at first I knew Mr. Warner [Manson’s real name is Bryan Warner] did not do these things to me, eventually I began to question whether he actually did,” Smithline said.

Smithline claims that this social pressure led to her suit against Manson. The 2021 suit accused Manson of sexual assault, sexual battery, intentional infliction of emotional distress, and unlawful imprisonment.

Smithline claims that her attorney, Jay Ellwanger, did not inform her of the contents of the suit before filing and that she was not given an opportunity to approve of the suit.

Smithline now asserts the suit contained lies.

“The complaint contained untrue statements about Mr. Warner, including that there was violence and non-consensual sexual activity in our brief relationship and that I had repressed memories of the same until meeting with Ms. Wood, Ms. Gore, and others in 2020,” she said.

Smithline now says she was manipulated into filing the suit.

“Looking back, I feel I was manipulated by Ms. Wood, Ms. Gore, Ms. Bianco, and Mr. Ellwanger to spread publicly false accusations of abuse against Mr. Warner,” she said.

Smithline now says Manson “did not ever assault or abuse [her].”

 

Seattle Teenagers Walk Through Open-Air Drug Market to Enter High School

Seattle Teenagers Walk Through Open-Air Drug Market to Enter High School

(Dmytro “Henry” Aleksandrov, Headline USA) Due to the crime and policing policies in the Democrat-controlled city of Seattle, teenagers are forced to go through an open-air drug market filled with homeless addicts every day to get inside the building of their high school.

A Discovery Institute journalist Jonathan Choe shared footage that shows several people using hard-core drugs in the middle of the street during the day and selling stolen things on a street corner in the heart of the city, while children walk by them to go to and from Summit Sierra High School.

The students, teachers, and parents have largely realized that the Democrats in power are not going to do anything to solve this problem and that they are on their own now, according to the Post Millennial. The video shows a group of volunteers cleaning the sidewalks around the school of drug paraphernalia, including used needles.

“It really is living through America’s slums here in Seattle,” Choe said on “Jesse Watters Primetime” on Thursday.

“And this is the heart of the Chinatown International District, an area that’s already been marginalized, that already faces so many problems, homeless encampments, drug dens, drug users and the criminal activity that just comes along with all of this stuff.”

“The criminal activity, the drug dens, the homelessness, the enforcement isn’t there. Nobody is being arrested or prosecuted. And even if they are arrested and prosecuted, the judges let them out,” he added.

After he appeared on Fox News, Choe returned to the school and surrounding blocks to see if anything changed and found that everything is the same.

“It was packed again with open-air drug use, sales of stolen merch, and no police in sight. This is what the students and staff face every single day. Why are we jeopardizing their safety and allowing this to flourish? [Whose] rights are more important?” he wrote in his tweet, adding even more footage.

Study: 63% of Young Men Are Single, Young Women Are Dating

Study: 63% of Young Men Are Single, Young Women Are Dating

(Dmytro “Henry” Aleksandrov, Headline USA) While feminists screech about patriarchy, this month’s Pew Research Center poll revealed that the majority of young American men are single, while females of the same age are in a relationship.

Even though young men are far more likely to be single than middle-aged men, the same principle doesn’t apply to females, according to Breitbart.

Young men are also more likely to be friendless, lonely, and sexually uninvolved.

“Men are more under attack than ever. A majority of college graduates are now women, and men are making less in the workforce,” American Principles Project President Terry Schilling said.

“And because women expect their partner to make more than them, it’s leading to a great isolation of American men.”

Schilling also talked about pornography being commonly available to men.

“On top of the economic attacks on men, there’s been a rise in unfettered access to pornography online so now we’re seeing a rise in not just involuntary celibate men, but a growing number of men opting out of relationships altogether,” he added.

“The service economy combined with the disastrous sexual revolution have wreaked havoc on our country. We need to recalibrate.”

Young American men also commit suicide at four times the rate of their female counterparts and fall behind in education, with women receiving nearly 60 percent of undergraduate degrees. Schilling also talked about mass shootings, citing them as another source of the “great isolation of American men.”

Isolation like this can also be viewed as a cause of lowering fertility rates and declining birth rates as a result.

According to Pew Research, 57% of young Americans don’t even want to be in a relationship, with only 13% of people saying that they do look for a committed relationship and 42% of people looking for “some kind of romance.”

Another reason why men don’t date anymore is that some of these men and women are sexual deviants who “identify” themselves as non-straight, “nonbinary” or “transgender.”

Despite the “strong and independent woman” narrative that comes from feminists, women prefer to date older, less physically attractive men because they don’t want to date a man who has lesser or even equal social status and income than they have, and since the vast majority of men only start their careers in the early 20s, that leaves them more isolated.

The last two reasons why men prefer not to date or avoid dating even though they want to be in a relationship is that they live in the so-called “#MeToo Generation” where they can be wrongfully accused of sexual harassment and that, in case of divorce, initiated mostly by women, a wife can take everything from her ex-husband.

Gisele Fetterman Leaves Depressed Husband in Hospital, Takes Kids on a Trip

(Dmytro “Henry” Aleksandrov, Headline USA) While Sen. John Fetterman, D-P.A., is currently hospitalized for clinical depression, his wife Gisele decided to leave him alone and took their kids to go on a road trip to Canada.

On Friday, Gisele tweeted about her decision to leave her husband and go have fun in a different country and because her location was turned on, which indicated that she was finally seeing her husband at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in North Bethesda, Mar., according to the Gateway Pundit.

However, instead of being open about what she is doing, Giselle said that the reason why she decided to bring herself and her kids to another country is because of the media trucks circling her and John’s home.

“I am not really sure how to navigate this journey but I am figuring it out slowly. 1 week ago today when the news dropped, the kids were off from school and media trucks circled our home. I did the first thing I could think of… pack them in the car and drive…” she wrote.

Gisele, who came to this country illegally from Brazil, noted that having a passport can be very helpful when you try to legally enter a country.

“We drove straight into… Canada (and lovely Buffalo NY) (Pro Tip: always have passports ready just in case you have to run away). We talked about lots of hard things and how we will all have to face hard things. About the need to be gentle… with all and with ourselves…” she wrote.

Gisele then mentioned her and her kids’ ziplining over Niagara Falls and extensive talking.

“We did some scary things but we did them together. We ziplined over Niagara Falls and August got stuck. We talked about flexibility and the need to always have an open heart and an open mind…” she wrote.

“We also talked about how joy and fun can and must still exist, even when someone we love is in pain. And tomorrow? Who knows. Will try all over again,” Gisele added.

NYTimes, Scientists Finally Admit COVID Masks, Vaccines Are Useless

(Dmytro “Henry” Aleksandrov, Headline USA) The New York Times published an opinion piece by Bret Stephens, a 2013 Pulitzer Prize winner, on Tuesday about COVID-19 masks being useless that was titled “The Mask Mandates Did Nothing. Will Any Lessons Be Learned?”

“The most rigorous and comprehensive analysis of scientific studies conducted on the efficacy of masks for reducing the spread of respiratory illnesses — including Covid-19 — was published late last month. Its conclusions, said Tom Jefferson, the Oxford epidemiologist who is its lead author, were unambiguous,” Stephens wrote.

“‘There is just no evidence that they’ — masks — ‘make any difference. Full stop,’” Jefferson told the journalist Maryanne Demasi.

Jefferson then added that even specific masks make “no difference.”

“But, wait, hold on. What about N-95 masks, as opposed to lower-quality surgical or cloth masks? ‘Makes no difference — none of it.’”

He also said that all of the studies in the early days of the pandemic that claimed that masks worked, which prompted lawmakers at every level of government to enact tyrannical mask mandates, were “non-randomized” and “flawed observational studies.” Unlike these scientists, Jefferson and his 11 colleagues conducted 78 randomized controlled trials, with a total of 610,872 participants in numerous countries.

“Mask mandates were a fool’s errand from the start,” Stephens wrote. “They may have created a false sense of safety — and thus permission to resume semi-normal life. They did almost nothing to advance safety itself. The Cochrane report ought to be the final nail in this particular coffin.”

Other researchers also examined the efficacy of local COVID vaccine mandates that were implemented across the United States in 2021 and found they didn’t work.

“These mandates imposed severe restrictions on the lives of many citizens and business owners,” the researchers said in a study conducted by George Mason University’s Mercatus Center. “Yet, we find no evidence that the mandates were effective in their intended goals of reducing COVID-19 cases and deaths.”

The researchers evaluated New York, Los Angeles, Boston, Chicago, New Orleans, Philadelphia, San Francisco, Seattle, and Washington, D.C. — all Democrat-led cities that acted like tyrants since 2020.

“We find no evidence that the announcement or implementation of indoor vaccine mandates in the cities listed had any significant effect on vaccine uptake, COVID-19 cases, or COVID-19 deaths, and this is largely consistent for all US cities that implemented the mandate,” the researchers wrote.

MURDOCK: Democrat Policies Look More Like Mental Disease

MURDOCK: Democrat Policies Look More Like Mental Disease

(Deroy Murdock, Headline USA) Led by Quadrillion-Dollar Man Joe Biden—about whom more later—today’s Democrat Party has decayed into a collection of psychoses fortified by police power, perpetual-motion monetary printing presses and easy access to atomic weapons.

What could go wrong?

Damn near everything.

Democrats spent much of the last generation attempting to heal the Southern blacks whom they brutalized through Jim Crow segregation. They promoted legal equality for women, aimed to enrich the poor, and eradicated tear-inducing air and blazing rivers.

Despite their ham-fisted methods and extravagant budgets, yesterday’s Democrats often tried to do the right thing.

Today’s Democrats stroke their exotic fetishes in public, typically at taxpayer expense.

Their counterproductive projects explode in their faces like un-hurled grenades. And whenever they can cleave Americans racially or sexually, they do so with quasi-erotic passion.

Behold this snapshot of Demented Democrat insanity:

Among House Democrats, 79% (162 of 204) disagreed and voted to let foreign citizens cast ballots in the nation’s capital.

  • D.C.’s City Council battled a local crime surge by reducing penalties for robbery, carjacking, home invasion and other violent offenses. Every Republican voted to junk this law. However, 85% (173 of 204) of Democrats dissented and stood proudly with their thug-hugging District counterparts.
  • Today’s Democrats believe that genitalia are as interchangeable as Lego parts. So, they steer insecure boys and girls toward “gender-affirming care.” This sounds as inviting as a Jacuzzi. However, such “care” manipulates hormones, halts puberty, castrates via chemicals, chops off breasts and lops off penises.

Left-wing teachers and school officials pressure vulnerable minors to keep their parents oblivious to these enormous, life-changing, irreversible medical interventions.

  • In a massive blow for transgenderism, New Hampshire’s Milford School Board voted Feb. 6 to disable boys room urinals with trash bags.

“No one requested this change,” student Jay Remella told WMUR-TV. “It was solely made by the school board and a parent complaint.”

After hundreds of high-school students walked out to protest this decision, the board reversed itself and liberated the urinals, proving who the real grown-ups are in Milford.

Democrats’ Menstrual Equity for All Act of 2021 mandates that every California government school supply free feminine-hygiene products in each female and all-gender restroom and at least one male bathroom.

  • San Francisco Democrats have proposed $5 million in slavery reparations for every eligible black resident. If all 46,466 black San Franciscans qualified (per Census data), this would cost each of 768,735 local non-blacks $302,223. Total: $232.3 billion.

Reparations would consume this city’s entire $14 billion budget for the next 16 years and leave $0.00 for police, firefighters, schools, roads, healthcare or anything else through 2039.

  • “If we don’t stay under 1.5 degrees Celsius, we’re going to have a real problem,” President Biden told donors on Jan. 31. “It’s the single-most existential threat to humanity we’ve ever faced, including nuclear weapons.”

The Democrats’ bright-green, $369 billion Inflation Reduction Act is supposed to help Biden meet his 2.7° Fahrenheit objective

Good luck with that.

Climate expert Bjorn Lomborg ran the IRA through the United Nations’s temperature models. He discovered that the IRA reduces expected global warming through 2100 by just 0.0009° F. This is like cranking a thermostat from 72° F way down to 71.9991° F.

So, $369 billion achieves just 0.0333% of Biden’s goal. Thus, Biden’s desired 2.7° reduction would cost $1.108 quadrillion—with a Q—more than 35 times America’s $31.5 trillion national debt.

Such madness confirms that the Democrat Party has slouched from a serious political institution into America’s largest mental hospital.

Study: COVID Deaths Common for ‘Fully Vaccinated,’ Topping 90%

Study: COVID Deaths Common for ‘Fully Vaccinated,’ Topping 90%

(Headline USA) A new study from the United Kingdom found that 92% of all COVID-related deaths were from fully vaccinated people.

Earlier this month, the Office for National Statistics, a UK government agency, published data on COVID deaths from the start of the pandemic to Dec. 31, 2022. The numbers show that in May 2021 there were the lowest number of COVID-19 deaths. Eighty-four of those deaths were among the unvaccinated population, while 205 were among the vaccinated. Fast forward to May 2022 and deaths spiked by 450%, with 1,494 among the vaccinated and just 96 among the unvaccinated.

Between April 1, 2022 and December 31, 2022, there were 17,150 COVID deaths, 13,116 of which were among the vaccinated, and 4,034 of which were among the unvaccinated. 

In total, fully vaccinated adults have accounted for 86%, or 9 out of every 10 COVID deaths in the UK over the past two years.

Public health officials’ efforts to force boosters on everyone seemed to make the situation worse, according to the data. Between Jan. 1, 2022 and Dec. 31, 2022, there were 28,041 COVID deaths in England — 25,758 of those deaths were among the fully vaccinated population, while just 2,273 deaths were among the unvaccinated population.

Here in the U.S., there is reason to believe public health officials have hid the potential side effects of the jab from the public. In January, for example, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Food and Drug Administration finally got around to announcing that it had discovered last November that the updated Pfizer coronavirus vaccine booster could be causing strokes in people 65 and older, sparking concerns dire enough to prompt the agencies to launch an investigation.

The ischemic stroke risks identified by the CDC happen when blood flow to the brain is significantly lowered, which has led to concerns that it could also impact other vascular issues, specifically heart attacks, which are also caused by artery blockage.

“This is what was feared all along. These are experimental shots with unknown short-term and long-term side effects,” Rep. Andy Biggs, R-Ariz., tweeted following the delayed disclosures from the CDC.

WATCH: DOJ Threatens to Repossess Alex Jones’s Cat

(Jacob Bruns, Headline USA) Infowars founder and right-wing media personality Alex Jones posted a video earlier this week saying that the Department of Justice wants to confiscate his pet cat to give the parents of Sandy Hook children.

Jones began the video by ensuring that the statement that he was about to make was not a joke.

“Ok, so this is not a joke, this is real, and it’s happening,” he began.

“I just got home tonight with my family… I’m in a bankruptcy hearing,” he noted, alluding to the $1 million that Jones owes to the parents of the children of Sandy Hook, according to a jury decision last fall.

Jones, who has called his trial a “show trial” in the past, noted that the DOJ accused him specifically of hiding money in his family’s pet cat.

“The Justice Department is involved, and they asked me to be in a hearing today. They wanted to know if assets were hidden in the cat. They were very serious about the cat and its value. And they want the cat for the Sandy Hook families.”

Jones then mocked the DOJ, suggesting that they should come after his family as well, given their lack of boundaries.

“What [do] you want, my children next?” he asked.

He concluded the video by noting that this is the state of our nation today, going after people in court to take away their pets.

“This is the reality that we live in here in America, here in 2023. Justice Department hearings with people laughing in the background saying they want your cat.”

Ultimately, though, Jones said that he is unwilling to give up his pet.

“Ladies and gentleman, the line in the sand is, you cannot have my cat.”
