Administration to Ban Gender-Negating
Hospital Treatment
Posted By: Dreadnought, 12/19/2025 12:42:26 AM
Today Secretary Robert Kennedy announced that the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services will propose rules that will bar hospitals that receive Medicare or Medicaid funding—i.e., all of them— from performing “sex-rejecting procedures on children that expose young people to irreversible harm.” Banned procedures will include chemical treatments as well as surgery. While the proposed rules do not appear to be public yet, Kennedy’s Declaration in support of the rules is here. And this process implements President Trump’s Executive Order directing HHS to take such actions, among other things.

In political PR, the real story is the story behind the story.
Take, for instance, President Trump’s primetime address. It aired Wednesday night; here’s a link if you missed it. Millions of Americans watched it live.
But the real story was what happened behind the scenes.
The TV networks don’t like forfeiting ad revenue — especially during the season finale of (gasp) Survivor, for goodness sake — and they expect a presidential address to feature breaking news. If you’re gonna preempt their precious marquee programming, you better deliver something salacious!
Like war, pestilence, famine, and death. (You know, the good stuff.)
The TV networks were expecting a galloping quartet of fast-breaking news.
Mamdani’s ‘Globalized Intifada’

Gets a Little Less Globalized – Appointee
Quits Over Vile Posts 4 replies
New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani—whose reluctance to fully condemn the antisemitic slogan 'globalize the intifada' has already drawn fierce criticism—saw a top appointee resign after just one day when decade-old social media posts laced with anti-Jewish tropes resurfaced.
Mamdani's ability to weed out Israel haters from his list of appointees is going to be difficult, given his close associations with individuals who share the same belief. Enter Catherine Almonte Da Costa.
Da Costa resigned from her newly appointed role overseeing appointments and talent recruitment in Mamdani's administration, just one day after the position was announced.

Untold pixels have been spilled on the subject of illegal immigration, in the legacy media, the alternative media, and the blogosphere. President Trump was re-elected, in no small part, due to his promise to address the wide-open borders policy of the Biden years, and despite opposition at every step from the legacy media and Democrats (but I repeat myself) he's been doing that.
But what about legal immigration?
Some recent polling has revealed that a plurality of responders would like to see legal immigration reduced, or even halted altogether.
Two-thirds of Republicans want legalized migration to be decreased or ended, says a new poll by YouGov.
In contrast,
Democrats are sinking like a stone, and the new Quinnipiac poll makes it official: their congressional approval rating has hit a historic low of just 18%, with a brutal 73% disapproving. That's the worst number Quinnipiac has recorded since they started asking the question back in 2009. Even CNN's chief data analyst, Harry Enten, couldn't hide his shock, declaring that "Democrats, in the minds of the American public, are lower than the Dead Sea."
The real kicker? Democrats are turning on their own party. Only 42% of Democratic voters approve of how their representatives in Congress are performing, while 48% disapprove.

A Wisconsin judge accused of concealing an undocumented man to prevent his arrest by immigration authorities was found guilty of felony obstruction, according to ABC Milwaukee affiliate WISN, which was in the courtroom for the trial.
Milwaukee County Circuit Court Judge Hannah Dugan was charged in a two-count federal indictment that alleges she obstructed official Department of Homeland Security removal proceedings and knowingly concealed the man from immigration authorities at a courthouse in April.
Dugan was found guilty of obstructing federal agents and not guilty of concealing an undocumented immigrant from arrest during an April courthouse incident.

The Brown University shooting probe reportedly reached Salem, New Hampshire, on Thursday. After reports linked the Providence incident to the murder of MIT professor Nuno Loureiro, a large police presence was seen in the Rockingham County town. Boston 25 reporter Bob Ward cited law enforcement sources to state that the search for a suspect in the Brown University mass shooting and the Brookline murder is centered on Salem, New Hampshire. Officials are yet to make a statement about the reported development. HT.com cannot verify the latest report currently.
FlightRadar map showed at least three helicopters circling over the Windham–Salem area near the Merrimack River.

Charlie Kirk assassin suspect Tyler Robinson made jokes about how conservative figures will “catch a bullet one day,” and mocked attempted Trump assassin Thomas Matthew Crooks for failing to “shoot straight.” Robinson, who once bragged about being able to hit a 400-yard shot, began openly adopting left-wing stances after getting into a relationship with his transgender roommate, whom he was seen physically coddling while the trans cried over politics, friends and former colleagues told the Washington Post.
The newspaper spoke with 21 people who knew Robinson and examined hundreds of messages the assassin suspect exchanged online, as well as in a Discord server

It's now into the fifth day since the shooting at Brown University, where someone killed two students and injured nine. Meanwhile, the press conferences have projected incompetence from the authorities, which hasn't given the public a lot of confidence that they're going to find the killer.
On Wednesday, they announced they had a second person they wanted to speak to, who they characterized as having been in the vicinity of the primary person of interest for whom they are looking.
They already released one "person of interest" who they had briefly detained.
When Donald Trump took the oath of office in January, he inherited an economic mess courtesy of Joe Biden — soaring inflation, record-high gas prices, and a cost-of-living crisis that had American families scrambling to make ends meet. As we close in on a full year of Trump being back in office, there’s no doubt that things are turning around. Inflation has been slashed by more than half, gas prices are plummeting, real wages are climbing, and the everyday expenses that crushed household budgets under Biden are finally moving in the right direction. Even job creation is happening for native born Americans, not foreign workers.
Inflation dropped in November, ending a monthslong acceleration of price increases and offering relief for households strained by cost hikes, government data on Thursday showed. The reading came in below economists' expectations.
Consumer prices rose 2.7% in November compared to a year earlier, marking a notable reduction from 3% year-over-year inflation in September, the most recent month for which complete data is available. Inflation stands at its lowest level since July. The report offered the first look at price increases in nearly two months, after the 43-day government shutdown impaired data collection.
Despite an overall reduction of inflation, some high-profile items like coffee and beef continued to soar in November.

When it comes to hit jobs, the 10,000-word Vanity Fair spread on Susie Wiles is a classic of the genre.
Chris Whipple, a veteran journalist, producer and author with a career spanning the constellation of left-wing media — CBS’s “60 Minutes,” ABC, MSNBC, CNN, NPR, Politico, The Daily Beast, The New York Times, The Washington Post — has craftily framed the president’s chief of staff in a narrative of typical Trump-derangement fantasies.
The wonder is that she let him do it.
And there’s no doubt she did.
Washington journalism veteran Mark Halperin on his 2WAY podcast says Wiles may have thought the 11 interviews Whipple said she did this year were off the record.

The unspeakable tragedy that has been visited upon the family of Rob Reiner has likely left all parents in shock.
Given what has been available to read about Nick Reiner these past several days, since the murder of his parents, it has shed a little light on what that family has endured since their son Nick was eight years old, maybe even before that.
He was apparently a difficult child long before he became a drug user.
His parents tried to help him way back then after he disrupted their yoga sessions.
They hired their trainer to work specifically with Nick, thinking yoga would help him

The man suspected of carrying out two murderous attacks — one at Brown University that killed two students and wounded nine more, and another that killed the MIT professor in his Brookline home — was found dead in a storage unit in Salem, New Hampshire last night. The murderer apparently took the coward’s way out.
Listening to the Providence press conference last night — it was followed by one featuring United States Attorney Leah Foley speaking about the murder of MIT Professor Nuno F.G. Loureiro — we learned that a witness who had confronted the murderer on the Brown campus provided the key to the breaking of the case

What to know about the investigations into the Brown University shooting and the killing of an MIT professor:
The suspect in the Dec. 13 mass shooting on the campus of Brown University has been found dead in a storage unit in Salem, New Hampshire, sources told CBS News. Two students were killed and nine were wounded in the shooting. Multiple sources familiar with the investigation had told CBS News earlier Thursday that a person of interest has been identified in the shooting.
On January 14, Charles Foehner will begin serving a four-year prison sentence.
Yes, New Yorkers, we can finally rest easy. We got him. And by him, I mean a 67-year-old man who poses no danger to society.
Foehner is a retired doorman with the gift of gab, a devoted wife, and a habit of saying “groovy.” He spends his time watching naval history videos on YouTube. While there are many violent criminals with rap sheets the length of a CVS receipt walking our streets, Queens DA Melinda Katz decided to throw the book at this senior citizen, after he pleaded guilty to owning unlicensed guns.
Ready for another exciting episode of "Rampant Welfare Fraud Costs the Taxpayers Billions?" Well, here we are; this time it's Colorado, and the fraud has to do with housing assistance from the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Investigators have uncovered 221 people receiving federal housing assistance who have no business receiving it, unless one can consider a coffin or an urn "housing." That's right. 221 dead people, out of almost 3,000 people in Colorado who were improperly receiving benefits from HUD. Here's the question: Were these just mistakes, the results of bad record-keeping, or deliberate fraud? Not that either is exactly a comfortable finding; when the answer
Europe faces a question of “money today, or blood tomorrow”, its leaders were told as they entered crunch meetings on whether to approve a financial structure using frozen Russian assets to enable a mega loan to Ukraine.
The leaders of European Union member states met for a session of the European Council on Thursday, talks which are expected to go all day, for discussions on using frozen Russian assets held in European countries to guarantee a loan to Ukraine to keep it solvent. The European Union believes Kyiv needs a cash injection of $160 billion to pay for its military and civil expenses for the next two years
The Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts will now bear the names of two American presidents after its board of trustees voted unanimously on Thursday to rename the institution “The Donald J. Trump and The John F. Kennedy Memorial Center for the Performing Arts.” The decision, announced on December 18, 2025, marks a historic renaming of the iconic Washington, DC, venue. The board’s unanimous decision recognizes Chairman Donald J. Trump’s role in saving the institution from what Roma Daravi, Vice President of Public Relations at the Kennedy Center, described as “financial ruin and physical destruction.”

The Chinese national charged in a deadly tour bus wreck on a Tennessee highway had entered the US illegally — but was still issued a driver’s license by New York state, The Post has learned.
Huang Yisong, 54, crossed the US-Mexico border in 2023 and was released under Biden administration policies, eventually ending up in Brooklyn and snagging a commercial driver’s license from the state, federal homeland security and transportation officials said.
“Far too many innocent Americans have been killed by illegal aliens driving semi-trucks and big
rigs,” Homeland Security Secretary Kirsti Noem said in a statement to The Post.
