Oakland, California opens largest abortion clinic in U.S.

Posted on February 2, 2025 by | 3 comments

The city of Oakland in the S.F. Bay Area of failed blue state California is already notorious for its crime-ridden streets and its corrupt mayor. See DCG’s post, “Decades of democrat leadership on display in Oakland, CA.”

Now, Oakland is hellbent on sinking even lower.

California Catholic Daily reports that the largest abortion clinic ever just opened for business in Oakland:

The Planned Parenthood abortion business is opening its largest abortion business ever. The massive facility will be located in Oakland, California and could kill babies in abortions up to birth.

Located at 1400 Broadway, the Planned Parenthood Mar Monte Barbara Lee Oakland Health Center opened its doors on December 17 with an official ribbon-cutting ceremony scheduled for February 1, 2025.

Planned Parenthood officials expect it will be able to kill thousands of babies. The opening of the Oakland center is seen as a strategic move to attract more abortion customers coming to the Bay Area on flights from pro-life states for abortions.

The health center is named in honor of Congresswoman Barbara Lee, a radical abortion activist who never voted pro-life. Lee was delighted an abortion center that kills children will be named after her.

In a statement, Lee expressed her gratitude, stating, “To have a Planned Parenthood health center with my namesake is a great honor, and one I do not take lightly.”

The opening comes on the heels of the death of Cecile Richards, Planned Parenthood’s former president.

In the recently released 2022-2023 fiscal year annual report titled, “Above & Beyond,” Planned Parenthood states it performed 392,715 abortions. That means Planned Parenthood killed 1,075 babies in abortions every single day even though the abortion giant claims its main focus is merely “women’s health care.” In other words, Planned Parenthood kills 44 babies every hour.

“Above & Beyond” also shows that 34 percent of Planned Parenthood’s revenue, $699.3 million, comes from “government health services reimbursements and grants,” or taxpayer dollars.

Thank God for President Trump who, on Jan. 24, signed an executive order reinstating the Mexico City Policy which forbids using taxpayer dollars to fund nongovernmental organizations that perform or promote coercive abortion or involuntary sterilization. (Fox News)

How to lift up women in the Trump administration, according to democrats

Posted on January 30, 2025 by | 3 comments

If the left didn’t have double standards, they wouldn’t have any at all.

Case in point: They love to claim they support women, giving us advice on how to lift each other up, not tear women down. Back in 2022 at the Power Women Summit, Hillary Clinton called for empathy and respect among women, encouraging women to “lift each other up.”

But that never applies to republican or conservative women. And now that President Trump and First Lady Melania are back in the White House, that rule of theirs to “lift up women” is out the door, again.

First target of attack is Melania Trump. From the women’s magazine, Vogue (via Todd Starnes’ tweet):

“Melania Trump Cosplays The Apprentice in Her Official White House Portrait,” read the snarky headline. Writer Hannah Jackson blasted Mrs. Trump’s power pose, her wardrobe and the black & white image photographed by Régine Mahaux.

“Trump looked more like she was guest starring on an episode of The Apprentice than assuming the role of first lady of the United States,” Jackson wrote. “Trump’s clothing certainly didn’t help the boardroom pastiche. The first lady wore a black Dolce & Gabbana tuxedo jacket with satin-trimmed lapels over a white button-up, which she paired with a Ralph Lauren cummerbund and trousers,” the writer sneered. “The choice to wear a tuxedo—as opposed to a blazer or blouse—made Trump look more like a freelance magician than a public servant.”

Next up for attack: Former Governor of South Dakota and current Secretary of Homeland Security, Kristi Noem.

Kristi went on some ICE raids and MSNBC host (and racist) Joy Reid had some thoughts about how to “uplift” the Secretary. From RealClearPolitics:

MSNBC Joy Reid on ICE raids: “Reckless and also, I mean, as I’ve said, performative. I mean, I want to show you an image of Kristi Noem, the — who was just confirmed, the former governor who was confirmed as a Department of Homeland Security. I mean, it’s as if she’s cosplaying. It’s almost a game where she seems to be cosplaying as, I’m not sure what she thinks that she’s portraying here. She might as well be at Comic Con looking like this.”

Apparently the media all received the “cosplay” talking point memo about Kristi. See here, here, here and here.

The democrats didn’t learn a darn thing from last year’s election of President Trump. Americans voted for him for a radical change from the disasterous four years under Biden.

And we welcome and applaud the strong women he has chosen to lead in his administration. You can try tearing down these women all you want, democrats. We’ll continue to lift them up and be very proud of them!

There’s a new sheriff in town and legacy media weeps

Posted on January 29, 2025 by | 2 comments

Legacy media (or arm of the DNC as they often act) is dead. A self-inflicted mortal would that, one could say, began when Obama became president. They slobbered over the first black president and couldn’t hide their glee for him.

As President Trump began his first term, full-blown Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) inflicted every liberal and progressive media outlet. And we all know about their pushing every hoax under the sun to prevent him from getting re-elected.

Under the Biden administration, legacy media did all they could to protect the senile man. Despite crumbling ratings, they tried to back the old horse for as long as they could. And they lost all credibility.

Fast-forward to November 2024 and after four disasterous years of Biden, Americans had enough. We elected a new sheriff to run this country.

President Trump and his administration are playing hardball this term and setting new rules and guidelines to control the agenda they promised Americans.

Yesterday press secretary Karoline Leavitt held her first briefing and it was spectacular in many ways. She announced major changes to the press room and how this administration will be more welcoming to alternative press outlets.

As reported by Fox News, Leavitt announced the Trump administration was rolling out major changes to make room for newer, less traditional media voices in the briefing room.

Leavitt told reporters these changes were being made to keep in line with President Donald Trump’s “revolutionary media approach” that he deployed during his campaign in speaking to popular podcast hosts and social media influencers. From the report:

“In keeping with this revolutionary media approach that President Trump deployed during the campaign, the Trump White House will speak to all media outlets and personalities, not just the legacy media who are seated in this room,” she began before citing Gallup polls showing Americans’ low confidence in the mainstream media.

“Millions of Americans, especially young people, have turned from traditional television outlets and newspapers to consume their news from podcasts, blogs, social media and other independent outlets,” Leavitt continued. “It’s essential to our team that we share President Trump‘s message everywhere and adapt this White House to the new media landscape in 2025.”

Leavitt announced steps the Trump administration was taking to accomplish this, beginning with restoring the press passes for 440 journalists whose passes she said “were wrongly revoked” by the Biden administration.

The briefing room will also now be opened up to “new media voices who produce news-related content” and outlets who haven’t been welcomed into the briefing room previously, she said.”

After Karoline’s first briefing today, you can see she is going to handle the press in a boss way. Watch a clip:

You can watch the whole press conference here.

Karoline also told the press corp that they need to hold themselves to the same standard of truth they hold the White House. And she did this whole briefing without a “binder” or a “circle back.”

Don’t hold your breath that the legacy media will accept this “truth” challenge. They can’t help themselves due to their TDS. Adieu, legacy media. You deserve this cancellation.

How is this possible? Gen Z brands the omelette as “stressful” to cook

Posted on January 28, 2025 by | 6 comments

If your parents never taught you how to cook eggs, you’d only have to attempt it a few times (or Google it) before you’d learn the golden rule of cooking them: “Low and slow.”

Apparently, attempting this simple act is to “stressful” for the youth of Gen Z.

From the Daily Mail:

“Nearly two thirds of Gen Z adults admit they lack basic cooking skills – with around 61 per cent of those surveyed saying they do not know how to cook an omelette.

A study by dating app FindingTheOne has revealed that young adults aged between 18 and 28 prefer eating at a restaurant or takeaway because they do not know how to cook. The poll surveyed 1,500 participants across different age groups and showed a growing number of young people who are useless in the kitchen.

Nearly 64 per cent of Gen Z respondents said they prefer dining out because they ‘can’t cook’. 

Just under half described the act of cooking as ‘stressful’ and said the anxiety about cooking is what often caused the reliance on takeaways and restaurant meals. Even simple meals seemed to be a struggle for many, 42 per cent said they could not cook a stir-fry and 27 per cent said they struggled to make soup.

Shockingly even omelettes, which at their most basic feature just one ingredient proved a problem for 61 per cent of Gen Z adults in the survey.

One in four also admitted to deception, passing off food which was ordered in from a restaurant or takeaway as a home-cooked meal. 

More complex meals seemed entirely out of reach for most, with more than 80 per cent saying they wouldn’t know where to start for cooking lasagne or roast chicken.

One Gen Z participant, 23-year-old student Mia, said: ‘I feel like a lot of us just didn’t grow up in kitchens the way older generations did. Plus, with food delivery apps and ready meals I can just stick in the microwave, it’s easier to get by without cooking. 

‘But when it comes to dating, I’ll admit it’s a little embarrassing. I wouldn’t dare invite someone over for a home-cooked meal unless I had help.”

Read the whole story here.

You’d think that growing up as a “digital native,” one would be able to quickly search on YouTube for an easy omelette recipe. Here you go, kids: A 1:30 minute recipe for cooking a super easy omelette!

PS: If the omelette shape doesn’t turn out properly, they just easily turn into scrambled eggs!

Back in my high school days, I took Home Ec where I learned the basics of cooking, baking and sewing. These days, home economics classes are much less common in public education as bureaucrats have been more focused on critical race theory, gender ideology, diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI).

President Trump is bound to change that. He desires a more focused public education system where states have local control. Hopefully his administration can implement the changes needed that will enable common sense teachings and, more importantly, critical life skills.

One week into his presidency, Trump moving fast to cleanup Biden’s mess

Posted on January 27, 2025 by | 4 comments

Is your head reeling yet from trying to keep up with President’s Trumps actions and executive orders in the first week of his presidency? He’s out of the gate this term and is ready to Make America Great Again.

To help keep up, the White House has a list of Trump’s historic actions in his first 100 hours. A portion of the list:

  • President Trump is already securing the border and arresting criminal illegal immigrants.
  • The Border Patrol is reporting a significant drop already in attempted illegal crossings.
  • The Trump Administration immediately shut down the CBP One app, which “paroled” over 1 million illegal immigrants.
  • Deportation flights have already started and the military is assisting with the effort.
  • President Trump signed a series of executive orders ensuring the elimination of discriminatory DEI practices and ensuring merit-based hiring.
  • DEI staff are being placed on leave.
  • The Federal Aviation Administration must now return to merit-based hiring.
  • President Donald Trump signed an executive order telling agencies to stop remote work practices and directing workers to return to the office.
  • President Trump withdrew the United States from the disastrous Paris Climate Agreement that unfairly ripped off our country.
  • President Trump paused all new federal leasing and permitting for massive wind farms that degrade our natural landscapes and fail to serve American energy consumers.

There’s much more! Read the whole list provided by the Trump Administration here.

Over the weekend, Trump’s administration was busy playing hardball.

Border Czar Tom Homan

First, they targeted the members from the violent Venezuala TdA gang. From Twitchy:

“In a joint operation with the ATF, ICE, and local law enforcement, DEA agents raided a party in a suburban Denver warehouse. Agents seized drugs, weapons, and cash and took nearly 50 suspected illegal gang members into custody. The federal party crashers said the warehouse was being used as a makeshift nightclub where the notorious Venezuelan gang, Tren de Aragua, or TdA, was hosting an invitation-only party.”

Read the details about that raid here.

Next, Columbian President Gustavo Petro learned real quick that President Trump is not going to rollover.

Early Sunday, Petro tried denying entry to US military deportation flights carrying Columbia citizens (including illegal criminals) removed from the US. Swiftly, President Trump issued a harsh response to Petro that included:

  • Emergency 25% tariffs on all goods coming into the United States. In one week, the 25% tariffs will be raised to 50%.
  • A Travel Ban and immediate Visa Revocations on the Colombian Government Officials, and all Allies and Supporters.
  • Visa Sanctions on all Party Members, Family Members, and Supporters of the Colombian Government.

Within an hour, Petro reversed course by sending Columbia’s presidential plane to collect Colombian deportees earlier barred from landing. Read the all the details about this here.

And last night Border Czar Homan was on the ground with ICE in the sanctuary city of Chicago to arrest an illegal alien child sex offender. Dr. Phil was along for the arrest, apparently to film this for some future show for his  MeritTV.

What a difference one week under President Trump makes compared to the feckless incompetence of the last four years. America is back, baby!

I can hardly wait for what may happen this week!

California Secession approved for signature gathering

Posted on January 25, 2025 by | 7 comments

CBS News reports, Jan. 24, 2025, that a new effort to place a measure on the ballot that would ask California voters to approve the state’s secession from the U.S. has been cleared for signature gathering.

The measure, introduced by Marcus Evans of Fresno, must receive at least 546,651 signatures from registered voters, which is 5% of total votes cast for governor in the 2022 election, by this July 22.

According to the text of the measure, the state would be required to create a 20-member state commission, picked at random by the Secretary of State, to study California’s viability as an independent country in 2027 and to publish a report the following year.

The measure would also place the following question on the November 2028 ballot: “Should California leave the United States and become a free and independent country?”

If the ballot question is approved, which would require at least 50% voter participation and 55% voting “yes,” the proposal would declare a “vote of no confidence in the United States of America”, but would not change the state’s government or its relationship with the U.S. The measure would also call for the removal of the U.S. flag from all state buildings.

According to a fiscal analysis from the Legislative Analyst’s office, the measure would cost the state $10 million in election-related costs and to form the new commission, along with $2 million in annual costs to operate the commission.

Evans has been part of other initiative campaigns calling for the state to secede, including a proposal following Donald Trump’s victory in the 2016 presidential election. Evans said their movement has a better chance compared to eight years ago. “We believe that now is the best time to Calexit – NOW we are better situated to make Calexit happen than in 2016,” he said.

UPDATE:

The San Diego County-based Independent California Institute  has released a new poll purporting that more than 60% of Californians agree that they “would be better off California if peacefully seceded from the U.S. at some point in the next 10 years.” (Source: CalMatters, Jan. 24, 2025)

President Trump protecting woman inmates from biological men

Posted on January 23, 2025 by | 6 comments

One day after his inauguration, President Trump signed an executive order that states the federal government will recognize just two genders, obviously male and female.

The order is titled “Defending Women from Gender Ideology Extremism and Restoring Biological Truth to the Federal Government.”

It states that the administration vows to “defend women’s rights and protect freedom of conscience by using clear and accurate language and policies that recognize women are biologically female, and men are biologically male.”

Of course, liberals who support “transgender rights” are furious because the order shall ensure that males are not detained in women’s prisons or housed in women’s detention centers.

Now,  incarcerated “transgender” women (biological men) are in fear for their lives.

From the Daily Mail:

“Hundreds of transgender federal prisoners are living in fear after a ’roundup’ that will send them packing to men’s lockups following a day-one executive order from President Donald Trump.

Now lawyers are desperately trying to find a way to fight the order, saying the prisoners will have ‘a target on their backs’ as they move in with hardened male inmates. ‘It’s going to be incredibly dangerous,’ attorney Moira Meltzer-Cohen told DailyMail.com. 

Meltzer-Cohen said she fears there would be a ‘bloodbath’ if her client and other trans inmates are forced into male prisons.

The order declared that the government will only recognize two sexes – male and female. This means all ‘intimate spaces designated for women, girls, or females’ will be determined by sex rather than gender identity.

Public defender Sandra Gant (Minnesota) said her office was notified of the change in policy by the federal Bureau of Prisons Tuesday morning by the trans inmate’s family and asked other public defenders to share information for a legal fight.

‘Our office represents a trans client who, for the entirety of her pretrial detention & BOP custody, has been in a women’s facility,’ Gant wrote in the alert sent Tuesday afternoon.

‘Her family reached out in a panic – as of this morning, she, along with others at FCI Waseca, have been segregated and told that they are being processed out to a transfer center and then to a men’s prison. ‘She is terrified,’ Gant explained.”

Read the whole story here.

You know who is not terrified? Incarcerated women who have to share a cell with a biological man claiming to be a woman.

There have been many stories of women attacked (or raped) by a transgender prisoner (biological man) while in prison. See here, here, here, here, here and here.

Tremaine Deon Carroll, transgender “woman” who was indicted with two counts of forcible rape while housed in a women’s correctional faciity. He was transfered back to a men’s prison after the attacks. California Dept. of Corrections photo

Ladies, how’d you like to see the above “woman” show up to bunk with you in your cell? Now that would cause one to panic.

Thank you, President Trump, for protecting women prisoners from the liberal madness known as gender ideology.

70-year-old woman lives in her car in Arizona

Posted on January 22, 2025 by | 4 comments

This is heartbreaking.

Beth is 70 years old.

She had worked her entire adult life, including being a librarian. From the condition of her teeth (straight), she clearly was at least middle class. But she did not save her money and, as the rent on her apartment kept increasing, she found herself living in her car. Occasionally, she would check into a motel to bathe and shelter herself from inclement weather.

This is her video explaining why she lives in her car:

I’ve subscribed to her channel and will try to watch as many of her videos as I can because YouTube will monetize (pay) her when the number of her subscribers and watch hours of her videos reach 1,000 subscribers and 4,000 hours. As of this morning, she has 9,080 subscribers. In her most recent video (this morning), she says she’ll soon accumulate enough watch hours to be monetized.

You can also donate, here.

From the comments on her videos, there are other women, many elderly, who also are living in their cars. Good grief.
