Biden admin pours over $100 million toward transgender research grants, many backfire
The administration continues to pour millions of taxpayer money into university research to advance findings on transgender-identifying individuals, especially youths.
In spite of the administration's commitment to 'transgender care,' research it has funded has shown the adverse impact of such surgeries and hormonal treatments on patients.

A recent investigation demonstrates that when it comes to endorsing transgenderism, the Biden administration is putting its money where its mouth is.
The Biden administration has awarded over $100 million in federal grants to colleges, universities, and hospitals to fund research into “transgender” medicine, according to a report published by the Capital Research Center on Sept. 12.
-
Researchers Parker Thayer and Katie Cagle write that the Biden Administration has spent “over $104 million in payments to initiatives mostly or exclusively promoting, subsidizing, or studying transgenderism.”
Thayer and Cagle point out that despite claims made by Assistant Secretary for Health Rachel Levine that “gender-affirming care” is necessary and safe for youth, these federally-funded research programs “examined catastrophic side effects from the hormonal and surgical transition procedures that the administration insists are supported by overwhelming medical consensus.”
Several of the grants funded research into transgender treatment specifically for children.

Why Trump Tariffs Must Succeed
-
The Trump Tariffs are all about two major issues:
-
1) Other countries are and have imposed tariffs on our goods far beyond the tariffs we impose on them thereby disadvantaging our industries and limiting our workforce.
-
2) The US has aided and abetted other countries to become the manufacturing and technology entities for most of our goods and materials thereby limiting US high-paying manufacturing jobs and leaving the US with service-type businesses ie:
I cut your hair, you sell me insurance.
This includes many items that were invented here in the US but now others build, test, support and control the products, tools, processes, test equipment, skill-base and intellectual property.
-
Much of this ‘benefactor view toward foreign entities’ resulted from World War 2 policies to help other countries recover, including our vanquished enemies to recover, those conditions are long gone.
-
These two issues have resulted in a very high-risk economic basis for our country and our people.
Our major avowed adversaries, China and Russia and their associates could economically-blackmail the US or in a physical confrontation they could severely impact our national defense!
-
The Obama-Biden administrations totally ignored and in many cases exacerbated the ever increasing threat and risks to our standard of living, opportunities and national defense.
-
The US must establish a major solid “America First” economic base to compete with a new-world order of economic and military competition.
-
Clearly the EU depends on US for their success going forward and they need to stop their bitching and step-up to a new world reality!
Perhaps Putin’s invasion of Ukraine is a wake-up call.
It appears they are responding to the modest 2% budget challenge.
Who’s at 2 percent? Look how NATO allies have increased their defense spending since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. - Atlantic Council
-
A touch of US education optimism is the introduction of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math ) in many of our schools.
Would be a nice touch if we could resurrect the technology enthusiasm of the Sputnik age:

The Climate Armageddon?
-
The Armageddon storyline: World's glaciers melting faster than ever recorded
(Note: we’ve only been real-time recording ice data since 1750; a blink of a climate-eye)
Climate change: World's glaciers melting faster than ever recorded
But glaciers have been shrinking pretty much everywhere over the past 20 years as temperatures have risen due to human activities, principally burning fossil fuels.
-
-
The Gore, Kerry, Greta team and their associates are coming unstrung!
The current US administration and public views and attitudes have set ‘man-made global warming religion’ asunder and world energy policy has become “all of the available sources at the best price”.
It’s notable that China has followed that path all along!
As a result, panic-articles on: warming, glaciers, ocean rise and Climate Armageddon are being promoted in and by the GoreMedia.
-
Perhaps the public are starting to accept the reality of the earth’s climate cycles and the limited impact man-kind has had on climate.
Perhaps people just want the benefits that a fossil-centric world has provided and are doing ‘convenient things’ while hoping for the bestl!
Perhaps wind, solar and nuclear energies will yet expand and save the world!
Aye Yes: The sheep will then come home, wagging their tails, behind them!
-
In the mean-time, some climate observations are appropriate given that the Armageddon people choose Not to share a global historical climate view with the public! Something about mushrooms, dark & poop!

There is global warming and melting AGAIN as the earth is now in yet another natural warming cycle perhaps aggravated by mankind, perhaps not.

Note that CO2 levels started to increase in 1950
200-years after the melting and retraction had started in 1750

-
-
-
The ‘current’ northern hemisphere glacial melting and retraction started circa 1750 and has continued and has accelerated due to natural warming and the reality that as more earth-rock are exposed, the more heat is absorbed and that in turn accelerates the melting.
-
Four Northern Hemisphere glaciers all starting their retreat circa 1750 and are continuing at a significant rate.

A test vote on the bill failed to gain the 60 votes needed to advance in the chamber as senators stuck to party lines in a 51-45 vote tally.

WSJ Plays Word Games With Columbia Univ Malfeasance

Columbia Univ “Capitulates to Trump” in the hardcopy of today’s WSJ that magically changed to “Yield to Trump” in the online version.

Is Columbia Yielding or Capitulating or Giving-In? Does it matter? It’s a distinction without a difference?
Why not just do the right things and save us the alibis and disclaimers and the word-smithing!

Canadian Fairness Not
-
The media is awash with AntiTrump Tariff Heifer Dust!
Example: it is almost impossible to get Google to display the ‘ongoing’ Canadian tariffs imposed on American goods! It’s all about that bad Trump ‘doing-it-to’ our wonderful neighbors’.
Reality: our wonderful neighbors have been taking advantage of US with a big smile and a ‘Eh’ for a long time.

The Google ‘Canada Tariff’ Caper
It appears Google is waging a ‘tariff disinformation war’ against Trump.
Googling ‘Trump Canada Tariffs’ will NOT produce any data on the ongoing tariffs Canada imposes on US imports!

Greenpeace's $660-Million Dakota Pipeline Penalty
-
Greenpeace has a history of unlawful acts against their self-defined enemies.
Finally, albeit belatedly, some accountability for mob-gang insurrection and destruction in "the name of doing good".!

Jury finds Greenpeace at fault for protest damages, awards pipeline developer more than $660 million
Jury finds Greenpeace at fault for protest damages, awards pipeline developer more than $660 million • North Dakota Monitor
The nine-person jury delivered a verdict in favor of Energy Transfer on most counts, awarding more than $660 million in damages to Energy Transfer and Dakota Access LLC.
The case centers on Greenpeace’s involvement in protests against the Dakota Access Pipeline in 2016 and 2017.
-
Energy Transfer filed the colossal lawsuit in 2019, accusing Greenpeace of providing resources, including supplies, intel and training, to encourage Dakota Access Pipeline protesters to commit criminal acts to stop construction of the project. The company also claims that Greenpeace intentionally spread misinformation about the pipeline to tarnish its reputation with banks.

DOGE And The Serengeti
-
The ‘pruning’ of the Federal Bureaucracy Employees exposes uncomfortable feelings and attitudes on behalf of the ‘rest of us’.
Some are in shock and mourning and in sympathy with those ‘laid-off’’.
Others, especially those who have personally gone through lay-offs and down-sizing. are less sympathetic and appear reflective of the herd just watching one-of-their-own being taken-down.
Clearly there is currently a major effort by the media to personalize the down-sizing as part of their AntiTrump Jihad with no regard to the core economic issues involved.

Currently the majority of Americans are still in-favor-of continuing the DOGE activity:

And to think – these are the kids of the ‘PeaceNicks’!

Trump says Biden’s autopen pardons are ‘void, vacant and of no further force or effect,’ vows probe of Jan. 6 House select committee
Trump says Biden's autopen pardons are now 'void'
“The ‘Pardons’ that Sleepy Joe Biden gave to the Unselect Committee of Political Thugs, and many others, are hereby declared VOID, VACANT, AND OF NO FURTHER FORCE OR EFFECT, because of the fact that they were done by Autopen,” Trump posted on Truth Social early Monday morning.
“In other words, Joe Biden did not sign them but, more importantly, he did not know anything about them!” he said of the oldest-ever president and concerns at his age-related mental abilities at 82.

Yuge Poll Numbers For Trump: President Cracks ‘Right Direction’ Threshold Not Seen Since 2004
The poll also spelled very bad news for the Democratic Party, marking a new all-time low in its approval rating.
Yuge Poll Numbers For Trump: President Cracks ‘Right Direction’ Threshold Not Seen Since 2004
President Donald Trump and his administration hit a major milestone in the most recent NBC News poll, as 44% of Americans now believe that the United States is “headed in the right direction.”
NBC News pollster Steve Kornacki broke down the numbers with “Meet the Press” anchor Kristen Welker during Sunday morning’s broadcast, and he noted that the last president to see a number that high was former President George W. Bush, just months ahead of his re-election in 2004.

President Trump ties for highest approval he's ever had — as more Americans say US is on right track than any time in 20 years: poll
That’s despite the stock market selloff last week as Wall Street grappled with Trump’s decision earlier this month to slap 25% across-the-board tariffs on Canada and Mexico as well as a 20% tariff on China.
On many other key issues, voters felt the same way, with Trump’s actions on the border being the most popular — 56% said it was a positive change. On government cuts, 47% said his changes were good, compared to just 29% who opposed.
Even on his handling of the Ukraine war and NATO — policies on which he’s received significant pushback — more respondents said his actions were good (41%) than opposed his actions (40%).

Voice of “America” – Really?
-
Who decides who is ‘The Voice of America’ and what does he-she say?

Clearly ABC, NBC, CBS, MSNBC, and CNN and their derivatives are very different voices than FOX – so who speaks for America?
Based on the last election perhaps its FOX? Perhaps Not!

For many years the ‘major’ media outlets have been in the Democrat’s pocket and rightly can be referred to as the PravdaMedia.
A key distinction for media is public vs private funding: ie: Soros money vs Musk money vs Tax money.

'Bloody Saturday' at Voice of America and other U.S.-funded networks
'Bloody Saturday' at Voice of America and Radio Free Asia : NPR
All full-time staffers at the Voice of America and the Office for Cuba Broadcasting, which runs Radio and Television Martí, were affected — more than 1,000 employees. The move followed a late Friday night edict from President Trump that its parent agency, called the U.S. Agency for Global Media, must eliminate all activities that are not required by law.
In addition, under the leadership of Trump appointees, the agency has severed all contracts for the privately incorporated international broadcasters it funds, including Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty, Radio Free Asia and the Middle East Broadcasting Networks.

“We were badly misled” about the origin of Covid-19.

Now, apparently, we need “an honest conversation” so that nothing similar happens again.

"Our predecessors turned this Department of Justice into the Department of Injustice," Trump said Friday at the Department of Justice. "But I stand before you today to declare that those days are over and they are never going to come back."
-
"There could be no more heinous betrayal of American values than to use the law to terrorize the innocent and reward the wicked," Trump said. "And that's what they were doing at a level that's never been seen before. And it's exactly what you saw with Joe Biden, Merrick Garland and their cronies to do the building over the last four years. They ripped what they've ripped down is incalculable."

Also the vehicle engine-transmission are designed for diagnosis by plug-in computer equipment integral to the dealer service.

These changes are impacting the secondary market for service and repair and are phasing-out the local repair-guy and parts stores.

Why Won’t Europe Step Up and Help Ukraine?
Of all the players in this drama, it’s Europe who should be in the driver’s seat. They have 500 million people. And yet, when we look at their expenditures, nine countries out of the 32, 11 years later, have not increased their NATO contributions to 2%.
-
They’re also running a $200-plus billion trade surplus with the United States.
-
Why can’t they just get together and get an exact, detailed plan of military wherewithal, coupled with a strategy, coupled with a renewed commitment to meet their NATO promises, coupled with an explanation to the American people why they feel that $200-plus billion trade surplus is essential to Europe’s survival and it is not a result of asymmetrical and unfair trade practices?

Virginia Judge Pauses State’s Return To RGGI During Youngkin’s Appeal - Inside Climate News
A judge in Floyd County Circuit Court ruled from the bench last week that Virginia does not need to return to the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative, the carbon market known as RGGI, as the state appeals a November decision by the court saying the state must rejoin the interstate effort.
-
Judge Designate Randall Lowe’s ruling was a victory for Republican Governor Glenn Youngkin as the decision delays any potential reinstatement of what Youngkin calls a “regressive tax” on Virginians.

Virginia Judge Pauses State’s Return To RGGI During Youngkin’s Appeal - Inside Climate News
A judge in Floyd County Circuit Court ruled from the bench last week that Virginia does not need to return to the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative, the carbon market known as RGGI, as the state appeals a November decision by the court saying the state must rejoin the interstate effort.
-
Judge Designate Randall Lowe’s ruling was a victory for Republican Governor Glenn Youngkin as the decision delays any potential reinstatement of what Youngkin calls a “regressive tax” on Virginians.

Greenpeace's Dakota Pipeline: Not Green No Peace

Greenpeace USA faces reckoning over Dakota Access protests with $300M lawsuit
Greenpeace USA faces reckoning over Dakota Access protests with $300M lawsuit - Washington Times
-
The 2016 Dakota Access Pipeline protests failed to stop the energy project from being completed, and they could wind up bankrupting Greenpeace USA.
Greenpeace suffered a defeat last week when the North Dakota Supreme Court denied its request to move the trial to Fargo from Mandan, the community that bore the brunt of the months-long protest mayhem.
-
Thousands of protesters descended on the construction site near the Standing Rock Sioux reservation starting in April 2016. They …. vandalized equipment, blocked roads, set fires, butchered livestock, threatened workers and tangled with police.
(other than that, they were ‘peaceful -- Really?’)

Democrats & PravdaMedia Laid Rotten Eggs
-
Democrats blamed Trump for egg prices only weeks into office completely ignoring the real issue:
The spread of avian flu has killed millions of chickens across the nation (during Biden's term), shrinking the supply of eggs and driving prices higher. The average price for a dozen large grade-A eggs hit $4.95 in January 2025, double the cost from a year ago and surpassing the previous record set in January 2023 (during Biden’s term!).

Trump’s EPA is smaller, less green and focused on shrinking
EPA terminates Biden admin's green grants worth $20B, Zeldin says
$20 billion in grants awarded by the Biden administration for climate and clean-energy projects, Administrator Lee Zeldin announced Tuesday.
In a video posted to X, Zeldin said $20 billion in U.S. tax dollars were "parked at an outside financial institution in a deliberate effort to limit government oversight, doling out your money through just eight pass-through, politically connected, unqualified, and in some cases brand-new NGOs."

Counter-Productive Democrat Hate
-
Democrats’ hatred of Trump is destroying their party
Democrats did not just lose an election in 2024 — apparently, they lost their minds, too.
Consider, for instance, how they kicked off Women’s History Month — by voting against protecting women and girls in sports, against guaranteeing them a fair playing field.
This is not the only recent foolish move by Democrats. In anticipation of President Trump’s speech to Congress on Tuesday, 22 senators in the Democratic caucus broadcast videos of themselves all reading the exact same script, which starts with the words, “S— that ain’t true,”
-
And then we have Democrats’ embarrassing behavior during Trump’s speech. Early on, one of their own, Rep. Al Green (D-Texas), was booted from the chamber for trying to disrupt the president by shouting and waving his cane. Others were more restrained but equally undignified, raising little paddles to signal their disapproval, looking for all the world like spoiled children.

Will Bobby Kennedy Jr Help Our Health?
-
The Democrats and their PravdaMedia have launched a Jihad against Bobby Kenney Jr.
He’s targeted first because he’s a Democrat Party traitor and second because of his unorthodox views on public health priorities and practices.
-
His views appear to be consistent with the view that:
Baby boomers had measles, mumps and chickenpox.
Today’s kids have inordinate levels of:
· Autism
· Learning disorders
· Diabetes type-1
· Asthma
· Allergies
· Eczema
· Autoimmune diseases
· Cancer
-
All this in-spite-of a much-improved US environment over the past 100-years!
-
Why is this happening?
What has changed?
-
Perhaps Bobby’s questioning approach to public health will result in new approaches.
Perhaps Dr Fauci’s high-profile leadership during Covid did not serve our public health system well and his pardon further clouds ‘his science’.
http://roanokeslant.blogspot.com/2022/08/fauci-leaving-good-news.html
-
-
During a Congressional hearing featuring RFKjr, the Democrat members attacked him as a racist and anti-Semitic and a purveyor of lies.

The Google ‘Canada Tariff’ Caper
-
Many conservative entities have commented on Google’s “apparent” left-wing bias. This has the ‘appearance’ of another example?
-
-
Over time Canada has levied large tariffs on US goods imported into Canada.
Currently Trump is proposing tariffs on Canada to stir their action on Fentenal Interdiction and ‘leveling the trade playing field’.
“Canada has been ripping us off for years on lumber and on dairy products,” Trump said in an Oval Office address Friday, citing Canada’s roughly 250% tariff on US dairy exports to the country. Trump said America would match those tariffs dollar-for-dollar.

It appears Google is waging a ‘tariff disinformation war’ against Trump.
Googling ‘Trump Canada Tariffs’ will NOT produce any data on the ongoing tariffs Canada imposes on US imports!
Googling ‘Canada Tariffs on US imports for past years’ will only list many pages of proposals Trump is making on Canada goods as if this is a totally one-way unilateral inappropriate action!
-
-
A ‘competitor search engine‘ returned:
In 2022, Canada imposed various tariffs on imports from the United States. Here are some key points:
The maximum tariff rate on any product was 522.26%.

Reflections Of Herbert Hoover And Bonus Army

Trump says DC Mayor Bowser 'must clean up' homeless encampments in the capital
President Trump said the government will be 'forced to do it for her' if Mayor Bowser doesn't remove the 'unsightly' homeless encampments
Trump told DC Mayor Bowser she 'must clean up' homeless encampments within city | Fox News
-
-
Reflections:
In 1932, 43,000 persons, 17,000 were WW-1 veterans, setup and occupied a major ramshackle encampment in DC surrounding the reflecting-pool. They were demanding a war bonus to assist with the impacts of the Great Depression.
-
The encampments and protesters were removed by force by US troops led by Generals MacArthur, Eisenhower and Patton.
What a difficult and sad assignment for these Army Officers.

Zelenskyy: Why Was He Here?
-
There’s one thing to Not show-up at the church – it’s totally another to show-up and then bad-mouth the bride and her family!
-
-
When you go to the bank to “close” on a property --- You don’t bring your contractor or carpenter or plumber – you bring your checkbook!
-
What was Zelenskyy thinking? That he was going to bulldoze Trump? Really!
-
Of course he’s distraught – Russia invaded and attacked him and he has lost massive numbers of his young men, massive amounts of his cities and major amount of his territory including critical access to the Black Sea and things will probably get progressively worse.

He is well justified in Not trusting 'others' -- In 1994 Bill Clinton coerced him into giving-up his nuclear weapons and missiles to Russia for US protection.
That deal lasted as long as the sun did shine, and the rivers did flow.
-
But now, IF he can’t handle ‘the deal at hand’ – stay the hell home!
-
Now Ukraine has been further diminished and Putin emboldened, and Trump convinced that Zelenskyy is Not a 'compliant' dependable partner!
-
The next act is up to NATO, and we all know they don’t want to be in a leadership role facing ‘the bear’! That’s why they don’t want Ukraine to be a NATO country!
