3+ hour, 3+ min ago (312+ words) With the release of HHS' final report, it "became abundantly clear that the best medical science supports protecting children," writes Kurt Miceli M.D. Perhaps no issue in modern society is more divisive or emotional than whether children should receive sex-change treatments. Yet Nov. 19 could very well be remembered as the day when that debate was largely settled. That's the day when the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services issued its final report on the medical evidence regarding child sex-change treatments. HHS released an early version of the report in May, but in the intervening months, it directly asked skeptical physicians and medical associations to scrutinize its conclusions. Rarely will you see a more honest or humble approach to such a tricky medical issue. When HHS released its initial report in May, critics, including some of the most prominent medical groups, condemned…...

1+ day, 3+ hour ago (286+ words) The "racial equity trainings" can be brought "to your building" when requested by Education Minnesota members. (Daily Caller News Foundation) " Minnesota's largest teachers union is under fire this week over its "professional development" courses on topics such as "Interrupting Whiteness" and "LGBTQ+ Training." The union website features similar content across the board, offering materials on "Anti-immigrant rhetoric & deportation," various "anti-racism" resources," and a "racial and social justice" page claiming "certain politicians" are using police officers against minority students. The website also names "the murder of George Floyd" and "attacks on honesty in education" as hardships the group is fighting against. Education Minnesota's programs are part of the "Facing Inequities and Racism in Education" (FIRE) series, designed to "disrupt systemic racism and racial inequities in Minnesota's education system." The union operates a "Racial Equity Advocate network" and offers "Equity EdCamps." Education…...

"Shopping small on November 29th keeps our neighborhoods and local economy thriving, from the Twin Cities to the Iron Range," said NFIB Minnesota State Director Jon Boesche. "In Minnesota, Main Street businesses are the lifeblood of our economy, accounting for over 99% of the businesses in the state and employing 1.3 million Minnesotans, according to the Small Business Administration." According to October's NFIB Small Business Optimism report, a net negative 13% of all small business owners (seasonally adjusted) reported higher nominal sales in the past three months, down 6 points from September.

(Just the News) " President Donald Trump announced Friday that he was terminating all executive orders and documents that former President Joe Biden allegedly used an autopen to sign, claiming the former president did not actually authorize its use. Biden's alleged use of the autopen to sign controversial orders and pardons in his final months at the White House has been under scrutiny this year by the Republican-led Congress and White House. Trump alleged that Biden's team in the White House largely used the autopen without the former president and that all orders without Biden's personal signature are canceled. "Any document signed by Sleepy Joe Biden with the Autopen, which was approximately 92% of…...

2+ day, 2+ hour ago (432+ words) "In the military, leaders are taught a simple rule. When things go well, they give credit to the team. When things go poorly, they take responsibility. Gov. Walz does the opposite," writes gubernatorial candidate Patrick Knight. Minnesota is dealing with the largest public fraud scandal in its history. Thanks to the U.S. Attorney's Office and state legislators, the scope of these abuses is finally coming into focus. The indictments keep multiplying, the dollar amounts keep rising, and reverberations reach Washington, D.C. and beyond. How did Minnesota get here? The state improperly disbursed hundreds of millions of dollars across multiple programs. The patterns are strikingly consistent. Ever increasing funds were released quickly to the same types of organizations, in similar locations, with minimal oversight, and almost all of it happened from 2020 to 2022. Was it simple incompetence? It is hard to accept that a…...

(Daily Caller News Foundation) " White House Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy Stephen Miller said Tuesday that Democrats are pushing a political strategy that he says would turn the United States "into a version of Somalia." A City Journal report alleges that Somali-linked fraud rings have siphoned millions from Minnesota programs and funneled some of the stolen money to the Islamist terror group Al-Shabaab, according to federal counterterrorism sources. During an interview on "Jesse Watters Primetime," Miller warned Democrats are steering the country toward what he called the "Somalification of America." "In other words, when you see the state of Somalia, that's what they want for America at the end of the day because…...

3+ day, 3+ hour ago (783+ words) Despite intense suffering and hardship in their new home, the Pilgrims gathered together in gratitude. The first Thanksgiving calls to mind a slideshow of images: the "Mayflower," Plymouth Rock, men in funny black hats, Indians, and turkey. Except for wild turkey, which may have been absent from the menu for that feast, these generalities ring true, but they cause us to forget that those men, women, and children we call Pilgrims were flesh-and-blood human beings. So, who were these people who had traveled so far from the familiarity of their native land? Three prominent leaders of this expedition into the unknown'William Bradford, Myles Standish, and William Brewster'are names found in textbooks and histories. Bradford and Brewster left behind extensive writings about the ordeal, and Standish appears on many of these pages. Bradford and his wife, Dorothy, left their young son…...
