We know that women are being robbed of the opportunity to win championships as society allows males to continue to compete against women.

It is a fact that males competing in women’s sports will always guarantee unfair outcomes. Up until five years ago, everyone and their grandmas knew this. This is why we had a system in place that separated competitions based on biology.

Lynne Pinches still knows this. That is why she refused to condone this un-leveled playing field at the expense of women.

Pinches ceded before the first break at the final of the Women's Champions of Champions tournament after being matched to play against Chris "Harriet" Haynes. Twelve days later, she got her deserved prize and applause from her fellow players.

A New York City firefighter diagnosed with permanent heart damage after he received the COVID-19 vaccine is suing the City of New York and its Fire Pension Fund.

O’Brian Pastrana, whose injury forced him to retire, filed the suit after the Fire Pension Fund’s Board of Trustees in June denied his request for more substantial disability benefits, the New York Post reported.

The New York City Fire Department (FDNY) Board of Health doctors concluded Pastrana’s heart damage was caused by the COVID-19 vaccine, which was mandated for all New York City workers as a condition of employment. He is now living on only half his regular salary.

Pastrana received his first dose of the vaccine on Oct. 29, 2021. He suffered an immediate anaphylactic response, with hives, swelling of the lips and other symptoms that persisted for weeks.

I reckon this is the essence of democracy, i.e. a small weird minority forcing its will on the majority of normal people.

Trump administration alumni at America First Legal (AFL) representing Rep. Ronny Jackson (R-TX) won a court order forcing the Biden administration to disclose how American taxpayer money is funding Hamas terrorists at war with Israel.

Jackson represents the 13th congressional district of Texas, in the northern part of the Lone Star State. He is a retired rear admiral in the U.S. Navy and a doctor who served as White House physician for Presidents George W. Bush, Barack Obama, and Donald Trump.

GOP candidate Abe Hamadeh condemned his former opponent, Attorney General Kris Mayes, as a “third world dictator” for punishing two Cochise County supervisors over their slight delay in certifying the 2022 election results.

On Monday, Mayes indicted Cochise County Supervisors Peggy Judd and Tom Crosby with felony charges of election officer interference and conspiracy.

“Third world elections lead to third world dictators,” said Hamadeh. “Mayes is a fraud, she didn’t receive the most votes — and she knows it.”

In December 2022, Cochise County certified election results only after a judge ruled Crosby and Judd, both Republicans, were breaking the law by refusing to sign off on the vote count by the deadline.

Crosby and Judd said they weren't satisfied that the machines used to tabulate ballots were properly certified for use in elections. This prompted lawsuits including one from then-Secretary of State Katie Hobbs, a Democrat.

They both received subpoenas earlier this month. Ann English, the lone Democrat on the three-member board and the only supervisor to vote for certification, was not subpoenaed or indicted.

NASA is working to resume science operations of the agency’s Hubble Space Telescope after it entered safe mode Nov. 23 due to an ongoing gyroscope (gyro) issue. Hubble’s instruments are stable, and the telescope is in good health.

The telescope automatically entered safe mode when one of its three gyroscopes gave faulty readings. The gyros measure the telescope’s turn rates and are part of the system that determines which direction the telescope is pointed. While in safe mode, science operations are suspended, and the telescope waits for new directions from the ground.

Hubble first went into safe mode Nov. 19. Although the operations team successfully recovered the spacecraft to resume observations the following day, the unstable gyro caused the observatory to suspend science operations once again Nov. 21. Following a successful recovery, Hubble entered safe mode again Nov. 23.

The team is now running tests to characterize the issue and develop solutions. If necessary, the spacecraft can be re-configured to operate with only one gyro. The spacecraft had six new gyros installed during the fifth and final space shuttle servicing mission in 2009. To date, three of those gyros remain operational, including the gyro currently experiencing fluctuations. Hubble uses three gyros to maximize efficiency, but could continue to make science observations with only one gyro if required.

The Israeli army’s expanded authorization for bombing non-military targets, the loosening of constraints regarding expected civilian casualties, and the use of an artificial intelligence system to generate more potential targets than ever before, appear to have contributed to the destructive nature of the initial stages of Israel’s current war on the Gaza Strip, an investigation by +972 Magazine and Local Call reveals. These factors, as described by current and former Israeli intelligence members, have likely played a role in producing what has been one of the deadliest military campaigns against Palestinians since the Nakba of 1948.

The investigation by +972 and Local Call is based on conversations with seven current and former members of Israel’s intelligence community — including military intelligence and air force personnel who were involved in Israeli operations in the besieged Strip — in addition to Palestinian testimonies, data, and documentation from the Gaza Strip, and official statements by the IDF Spokesperson and other Israeli state institutions.

Compared to previous Israeli assaults on Gaza, the current war — which Israel has named “Operation Iron Swords,” and which began in the wake of the Hamas-led assault on southern Israel on October 7 — has seen the army significantly expand its bombing of targets that are not distinctly military in nature. These include private residences as well as public buildings, infrastructure, and high-rise blocks, which sources say the army defines as “power targets” (“matarot otzem”).

This was obvious from the beginning: if the US was going to demand countries to pass pro degeneracy laws, countries are just going to make deals with the Chinese, who don’t put sexual stipulations on trade deals.
