Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York argued against the political rhetoric on immigration from the Trump administration in an alarmist speech in Congress.

The congresswoman accused the administration of betraying the campaign promise to focus on deporting illegal aliens with criminal records in the speech Tuesday. She also claimed that Immigration and Customs Enforcement targeted 6-year-olds in her district.

‘That myth, that ideology, is that our immigrant neighbors are our enemies and more dangerous than us.’

“President Trump ran on a promise to the American people that ICE would go after the worst of the worst. … What we have seen is that ICE is not overwhelmingly going after criminals,” Ocasio-Cortez said.

“In fact, over 70% of people currently detained in detention facilities do not have a criminal record,” she added. “So, who are they going after? They are going after 6-year-olds in my district. They are going after students and permanent residents for their political views. They are going after Americans born and raised in the United States. And time and time again Trump has floated taking away citizenship from U.S. citizens based on their ethnicity.”

Ocasio-Cortez might have been referring to an incident where a 6-year-old was reportedly picked up by ICE in Queens along with her mother and deported to Ecuador.

AOC went on to attack the immigration “myth” she accused the administration of advocating.

“That myth, that ideology, is that our immigrant neighbors are our enemies and more dangerous than us,” she continued. “And they sustain that myth because if everybody believes it, they can get away with robbing all of us.”

She then accused Republicans of taking funding from food assistance, health care, and other social services in order to funnel it to ICE, which she called a “secret police program.”

While immigration activists have demanded that all enforcement efforts end, some Democrats have settled on the messaging that President Donald Trump’s deportation policies are too extreme.

Ocasio-Cortez is believed by some to be positioning herself to run for even higher office, and some are calling for her to run for president in 2028.

If she decided to run for the U.S. Senate, she could challenge Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.), who is up for re-election in 2028.

Her ambitions have been criticized by many on the far left who accuse her of abandoning her extremist base in order to widen her appeal to moderates and centrists of the party.

Jacob Savage, a Los Angeles-based writer, looked at the phenomenon of the “vanishing white male writer” earlier this year in an eye-opening piece for Compact magazine.

He noted, for instance, that whereas the New York Times’ “Notable Fiction” list included seven white American men under the age of 43 in 2012, not a single white male Millennial made the list in either 2021 or 2022. In each of the subsequent two years, only one individual from that particular demographic made the list.

‘The phenomenon of white male dispossession strikes at the core of what’s been going on over the last decade.’

Savage stressed that the Times’ list was hardly exceptional in its exclusion of white Millennial men. Last year, nobody from that particular demographic was apparently featured in the year-end fiction lists for Vanity Fair, the Atlantic, and Vulture. Of the 53 Millennial fiction writers featured in Esquire magazine’s year-end book lists since 2020, only one was a white American man.

Savage — who concluded in March that “white male Millennials are still unable to speak directly to their own condition” and that “in some ways that inability is their condition” — is back with another damning piece about the “lost generation” and the fallout of the DEI war on meritocracy.

In response to the viral article, which was published on Monday, U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission Chairwoman Andrea Lucas stated, “This is a story chock full of unlawful discrimination. There’s no DEI exception to the bar on race and sex discrimination. We need courageous employees/applicants to speak up to help attack and remedy this misconduct.”

Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights Harmeet Dhillon echoed Lucas’ post and wrote, “Step up!”

At the outset of the article, Savage provided several indications that the world of literary fiction was not the only place where the institutionalization of DEI proved to be bad news for white men.

He noted, for instance, that white men represented 48% of lower-level TV writers in 2011 but only 11.9% last year. At Harvard, members of the same cohort held 39% of tenure-track positions in the humanities in 2014 but only 18% in 2023.

“In industry after industry, gatekeepers promised extra consideration to anyone who wasn’t a white man — and then provided just that,” wrote Savage.

While some older white men, specifically those in the Boomer and Gen X camps, may have mistakenly concluded that DEI is a relatively benign practice — especially since the “mandates to diversify” apparently tended to impact their younger fellows — Savage suggested that for white male Millennials, “DEI wasn’t a gentle rebalancing — it was a profound shift in how power and prestige were distributed.”

A man identified only as Andrew who experienced this shift firsthand in a new media environment told Savage, “With all the declarations these newsrooms had been making, the imperatives — ‘enough white guys already’ — seemed to me to be the mantra.”

An unnamed senior hiring editor at a major media outlet told Savage that “the hope was always that you were going to hire a diverse candidate,” adding that a competent black woman “would get accelerated to the New York Times or the Washington Post in short order.”

While most major media outfits such as the Times and the Post had by 2019 gone out of their way to make sure their offices were majority female, Savage noted that “in the aftermath of George Floyd’s death, newsrooms tripped over themselves to stage a ‘reckoning.'”

‘It was jarring how we would talk about excluding white guys.’

Savage highlighted an apparent aversion beginning in 2020 at various companies to hiring men and whites from an American population that U.S. Census Bureau data indicated was 49.1% male and 57% non-Hispanic white.

For example, women reportedly made up 75% of the new hires in 2022 at Condé Nast — a mass media company that set a goal in 2020 to have 50% of the candidates on its hiring slates to hail from a “wide range of backgrounds and schools” — and only 49% of new hires identified as white. The following year, men and whites made up 34% and 50% of new hires at the company, respectively.

The Atlantic, another operating theater in the campaign against meritocracy, boasted in its 2024 DEI report that roughly 46% of the individuals the magazine hired between July 2023 and June 2024 were non-white and that 71% were women.

Savage indicated further that at the Los Angeles Times, only 7.7% of interns have been white men since 2020; that between 2018 and 2024, “just two or three” of the roughly 30 summer interns each year at the Washington Post have been white men; and that only 10% of the nearly 220 fellows who have participated in the New York Times’ yearlong fellowship since the program replaced the paper’s summer internship in 2018 were white men.

Various other publications including Indy Week have no white men left on their editorial staff to displace or replace.

“For a typical job we’d get a couple hundred applications, probably at least 80 from white guys,” one hiring editor told Savage in reference to this so-called racial “reckoning” championed by academics, activists, and others bad actors. “It was a given that we weren’t gonna hire the best person. … It was jarring how we would talk about excluding white guys.”

According to a November 2022 ResumeBuilder.com survey, one in six hiring managers across the United States indicated they were told to deprioritize hiring white men; 48% said they were asked to prioritize “diversity over qualifications”; and 53% said they believed their jobs were in danger if they didn’t hire enough “diverse employees.”

Andrew — who was apparently teased for months with the promise of a senior reporter position at a well-known publication only to later learn the job went to a non-white homosexual 10 years younger — said, “If you’re a white man, you gotta be the superstar.”

Savage underscored that this anti-white misandry is alive and well in the entertainment, medical, and tech industries but also in the academy, where the severity of the problem is partly hidden by the continued employment of elderly white male faculty members behind whom the doors to entry were closed.

“White men may still be 55% of Harvard’s Arts & Sciences faculty (down from 63% a decade ago), but this is a legacy of Boomer and Gen X employment patterns,” wrote Savage. “For tenure-track positions — the pipeline for future faculty — white men have gone from 49% in 2014 to 27% in 2024 (in the humanities, they’ve gone from 39% to 21%).”

The situation is similarly bleak for the cohort at other institutions, including Brown University, which has hired only three white American men as tenure-track professors in the humanities and social sciences since 2022.

“For a decade, it kept going, faster and faster. Without any actual quotas to achieve — only the constant exhortation to ‘do better’ — the diversity complex became self-radicalizing, a strange confluence of top-down and bottom-up pressure,” wrote Savage. “No one ever said what the right number of white men would be, but it was always fewer than you currently had.”

BlazeTV host Lomez said of the incredible response online to Savage’s article, “6 million views on a political article is insane. The phenomenon of white male dispossession strikes at the core of what’s been going on over the last decade. Any politician, anyone with any ambition to influence, must take on this fight. The time is now.”

Gene Hamilton, the president of America First Legal who previously served as Trump White House deputy counsel, noted, “If you are a person who believes in merit and wants to restore merit to hiring/firing/admissions/etc, you must understand that it is not enough to sit quietly and hope things get better. If you know someone who has been harmed, encourage that person to take legal action now.”

President Donald Trump’s Transportation Security Administration is partnering with Immigration and Customs Enforcement to ramp up immigration enforcement.

While the two agencies are under the Department of Homeland Security, a New York Times report last week stated that “ICE has historically avoided interfering with domestic travel.”

‘The message to those in the country illegally is clear: The only reason you should be flying is to self-deport home.’

However, beginning in March, the TSA reportedly quietly expanded its data sharing with ICE.

According to the NYT, the TSA has been providing lists of travelers’ names to ICE ahead of their scheduled flights. ICE then cross-checks that information against its own database of those subject to deportation, the outlet wrote. Agents are then dispatched to apprehend those individuals at the airport.

The report noted that it is unclear how many arrests have resulted from this data-sharing effort. It claimed there was at least one such arrest by immigration officials at Boston Logan Airport on November 20. That individual was deported.

“The administration has turned routine travel into a force multiplier for removals, potentially identifying thousands who thought they could evade the law simply by boarding a plane,” Scott Mechkowski, the former deputy head of ICE’s New York office, told the NYT.

“This isn’t about fear; it’s about restoring order and ensuring every American knows their government enforces its laws without apology,” he added.

A DHS spokesperson told Blaze News that the program was “nothing new,” adding that in February, DHS Secretary Kristi Noem “reversed the horrendous Biden-era policy that allowed aliens in our country illegally to jet around our country and do so without identification.”

“Under President Trump, TSA and DHS will no longer tolerate this. This administration is working diligently to ensure that aliens in our country illegally can no longer fly unless it is out of our country to self-deport,” DHS added.

President Donald Trump this week took additional action to end the nation’s drug crisis.

During a Mexican Border Defense Medal presentation on Monday, Trump announced that he was issuing an executive order designating fentanyl a weapon of mass destruction.

‘No bomb does what this is doing.’

“We took the worst border in the history of our country, and in a period of two months, we turned it into the strongest border in the history of our country,” Trump stated. “During this time, we’ve also achieved a 50% drop in the amount of fentanyl coming across the border, and China’s working with us very closely in bringing down the number and the amount of fentanyl that’s being shipped.”

The administration previously announced that it reached a deal with China to stop the pipeline of fentanyl precursors.

The president noted that in May, the administration executed the nation’s largest fentanyl bust, seizing 3 million pills. Authorities seized another 1.7 million fentanyl pills in November.

“There’s no doubt that America’s adversaries are trafficking fentanyl into the United States, in part because they want to kill Americans. If this were a war, it would be one of the worst wars,” Trump said.

Fentanyl overdose is the leading cause of death in Americans 18 to 45 years old, according to a DEA resource. In 2024, synthetic opioids accounted for 60% of overdose deaths — approximately 48,000 people.

“Today, I’m taking one more step to protect Americans from the scourge of deadly fentanyl flooding into our country,” Trump continued. “With this historic executive order I will sign today, [I] will formally classify fentanyl as a weapon of mass destruction, which is what it is. No bomb does what this is doing.”

The executive order argued that the synthetic drug is “closer to a chemical weapon than a narcotic,” noting that just two milligrams can be a lethal dose.

It also noted that two cartels are predominantly responsible for the trafficking of fentanyl, adding that they have engaged “in armed conflict over territory and to protect their operations, resulting in large-scale violence and death that go beyond the immediate threat of fentanyl itself.”

“Further, the potential for fentanyl to be weaponized for concentrated, large-scale terror attacks by organized adversaries is a serious threat to the United States,” the order read.

The order instructs the attorney general to promptly initiate investigations and prosecutions related to fentanyl trafficking. The secretary of state and secretary of the treasury are directed to take appropriate actions against relevant assets and financial institutions involved in trafficking activities. The homeland security secretary is tasked with identifying any threat networks associated with these activities. The order also instructs the secretary of war and the attorney general to assess whether the threat of fentanyl justifies allocating resources from the Department of War to the Department of Justice.

The White House released the document in November 2025, a season of sharp light and long shadows, when Washington typically settles into the low-grade fever of budget reconciliations and holiday receptions. The document was an executive order bearing a title that seemed designed to bypass the usual bureaucratic boilerplate and aim directly for the theological: The Genesis Mission.

The name is striking. It is not the “National AI Research Initiative” or the “Federal Science Acceleration Program.” It is Genesis, the beginning, the act of creation. The administration was announcing our place in the cosmos. In the flat, confident language of the Federal Register, the administration told us we stand on the precipice of a new golden era, a time when the messy, human business of scientific discovery would be handed over, in no small part, to the machines.

The animating spirit is the specter of geopolitical decline.

The ambition is American in its scale. The Genesis Mission is explicitly compared to the Manhattan Project and the Apollo program, those two totems of American effectual will that we invoke to convince ourselves that we can still do big things. But where Manhattan was about a bomb and Apollo was about a rock, Genesis is about everything. The goal is to “double the productivity and impact of U.S. science and engineering within a decade.” The proposition suggests that the rate of human epiphany is a variable that can be adjusted, a dial that can be turned up if only we have enough compute power.

The mechanism for this miracle will be something called the “American Science and Security Platform,” which is a “mega laboratory in the cloud,” a “closed-loop system.” The idea is to link the Department of Energy’s supercomputers, the fastest in the world, with vast troves of data from decades of federal research.

A promised new golden age of human flourishing will dawn, but the flourishing seems to be based on a certain obsolescence of the human element. The work will be undertaken by “self-driving labs,” facilities where autonomous agents formulate hypotheses, design experiments, and execute them with robotic arms, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The scientist will no longer be the lonely figure in the lab coat waiting for the results of the experiment. Instead, he will be the pilot, the overseer who feeds the prompt into the machine and waits for the answer to be delivered.

This effort is motivated by the unhappy “innovation paradox.” Each year, we spend more money on science, yet the breakthroughs seem to grow scarcer. New drugs are harder to find. Materials are harder to invent. Economists call it “Eroom’s law,” Moore’s law in reverse. The Genesis Mission is the administration’s bet that this stagnation is a failure of processing power, a bet that the answers are already there, hidden in the noise of the data, waiting for an intelligence fast enough to see them.

Reading through the directives, the 60-day deadline to identify “national challenges,” the 90-day deadline to build the data core, the 270-day deadline to prove it all works, one is struck by the urgency of elites who feel something gaining on them. The executive order speaks of “security” as much as “science.” It speaks of a global race to be won. We are trying to “secure American technological leadership” before someone else does. The animating spirit is the specter of geopolitical decline.

The man charged with orchestrating this creation is Dr. Darío Gil, the new mission director. He speaks of the platform as “a scientific instrument for the ages,” a phrase that carries a heavy burden of expectation. He is tasked with unifying the disparate, often territorial fiefdoms of the national laboratories into a single, humming engine of discovery. The task requires a profound faith in the system, a belief that if you connect enough processors, if you feed them enough data, if you remove enough friction, the truth will emerge.

There is something attractive about this vision. Who wouldn’t want to see the cure for Alzheimer’s emerge from a server farm in Oak Ridge instead of waiting another 30 years for serendipity? The promise of Genesis is that we can engineer our way out of our own limitations. It offers a clean, efficient future in which the messiness of trial and error is replaced by certainty.

One wonders what is lost in the translation. Science has always been a deeply human endeavor, driven as much by intuition and accident as by logic, by the mistake that turns out to be the answer, the anomaly that breaks the theory. The Genesis Mission proposes a science that is smoother, faster, and more predictable. It proposes a world where the “eureka” moment is a scheduled deliverable.

The Genesis Mission reflects a belief about control, a belief that we can tame the complexity of the world if we just build big enough computers, that we can maintain our dominance, our prosperity, and our health by digitizing the very process of learning.

As the winter settles over Washington, the work begins. The lists are being drawn up, the datasets tagged. The supercomputers are beginning to hum in their air-conditioned vaults, waiting to be fed. We have launched our new Genesis, and we must now wait to see what we have created. Whether we have built a new engine for human flourishing, or merely a very fast, very expensive mirror that reflects our own desperate need for answers, remains to be seen. The only certainty is that the machine is on, and it is hungry.

On a recent episode of “The Ezra Klein Show” — which is hosted by the New York Times — California Governor Gavin Newsom (D) praised trans kids and fervently claimed that he’s signed more pro-transgender bills into law than any other governor.

“I want to see trans kids,” Newsom said. “I have a trans godson. There’s no governor who has signed more pro-trans legislation than I have, and no one has been a stronger advocate for the LGBTQ community.”

BlazeTV host Sara Gonzales is disgusted.

“Democrats … they just continue pushing this trans propaganda, and they’re very proud of that,” Gonzales comments, pointing out that Newsom is going to push that propaganda even more considering he likely has 2028 presidential aspirations.

“Obviously, he is the front-runner. He’s angling for that. I think he would have been very happy if he was the candidate this last go-around instead of Kamala. But he is bragging that he is the most pro-trans governor in the country,” she says.

Newsom also dove into the topic of his previous stance on transgenders in women’s sports, telling Klein, “We didn’t get into trans sports.”

“That’s an issue no one wants to hear about because 80% of the people listening disagree with my position on this. But it comes from my heart, not just my head. It wasn’t a political evolution,” he added.

“It’s in his heart,” Gonzales mocks. “He just wants more trans kids. He just wants more kids being sterilized. He wants more kids being mutilated. He loves that truly, in his heart, in his heart of hearts.”

The mother of Andrew Wolfe said that he is making a “miraculous” recovery weeks after getting shot in the head in an alleged terror attack in Washington, D.C.

Wolfe and Sarah Beckstrom were patrolling D.C. as West Virginia National Guard members on Nov. 26 when an armed man attacked them. Beckstrom died from her injuries, and Wolfe was grievously injured.

‘Everyone has said his recovery is miraculous and we all know why God is so good!’

Wolfe was airlifted to MedStar Washington Hospital Center for treatment. On Saturday, MedStar neurosurgeon Dr. Jeffrey Mai released a statement about Wolfe’s progress.

“He is now breathing on his own and can stand with assistance — important milestones that reflect his strength and determination,” Mai said. “Based on these improvements, he is now ready to transition from acute care to inpatient rehabilitation as the next step in his recovery journey.”

His mother, Melody Wolfe, also released an update on his recovery progress.

“Andy is continuing to make HUGE improvements. He was sitting in a chair today for a few hours and was moving more of his right side. I asked if I could kiss him on his cheek, and he pulled me in close and let me give him a kiss, and then held me close with his arm around my neck,” the statement reads.

“It was the most precious gift he could give me,” she added.

“Then this evening he decided he was going to set the bar higher, and he started to smile and chuckle a little when his friends … were there talking with him! They were sharing pictures of Andy and his silliness, and he smiled and would even shake his head a little. So many people were able to witness this tonight!”

She went on to say that his communication abilities have greatly increased, although he is not able to communicate verbally yet.

“Everyone has said his recovery is miraculous, and we all know why God is so good!” she added. “He has worked through the hands of the knowledgeable and caring staff at the hospital, he has given our son the strength needed to heal, and he’s made sure Andy has been surrounded by so much positivity and love!”

Wolfe’s family thanked everyone for their prayers on his behalf.

“We know he will continue to improve at a rapid pace and know your prayers are making the difference,” the family said. “Please continue as God heals Andrew and gives him the strength to return to work, the West Virginia National Guard, and his new mission of being a light into this world. The support we’ve received from Andy’s military family, his hometown community, and people across the nation has been extraordinary.”

The suspect in the attack was arrested and identified as 29-year-old Rahmanullah Lakanwal, an Afghani who had fought in missions for the CIA and fled to the U.S. after the withdrawal from Afghanistan.

Following some significant delays due to the Democrat-imposed government shutdown, the Bureau of Labor Statistics has finally released its long-anticipated jobs report for November and October.

On Tuesday, the November jobs report, including partial data from October, was released, showing an unemployment rate at 4.6%, up 0.2 percentage points since September 2025 and up 0.4 percentage points since November of last year.

‘The report on December’s employment data, released in early January ahead of the next meeting, will likely be a much more meaningful indicator for the Fed when it comes to deciding the near-term trajectory.’

The labor market reportedly added 64,000 jobs after losing 105,000 jobs in October, according to available data.

Most of the jobs lost came from the federal government as part of DOGE’s buyout program, which went into effect at the end of September. Government employees who opted into the buyout were still listed as employed until their scheduled exit in October.

CNN explained that federal employment dropped precipitously in October, with 162,000 jobs lost, as a result of the Department of Government Efficiency’s work. DOGE’s “fork in the road” deferred resignation policy reportedly went into effect on September 30, though it was established earlier in the year.

The new report was originally scheduled to be released on December 5, but the release was delayed due to the 43-day government shutdown which affected data collection for both October and November.

Given the delays and fragmented data, experts have suggested that the November 2025 jobs report will not pull much weight in the Federal Reserve’s decision-making.

Kay Haigh, global co-head of fixed income and liquidity solutions at Goldman Sachs Asset Management, told Fox News: “Chair [Jerome] Powell commented last week that the report would likely be affected by shutdown-related distortions, making it a less reliable gauge of the labor market’s health than usual. The report on December’s employment data, released in early January ahead of the next meeting, will likely be a much more meaningful indicator for the Fed when it comes to deciding the near-term trajectory.”

The jobs report for December is set to be published on January 9.

“Why are you gay?” intoned Tucker Carlson in an African accent. Then the internet exploded. The voices of countless homosexuals and their supportive family members rose in unison to a pitch so shrill it could crack silicon data chips.

They trotted out all the predictable labels. Homophobe. Bigot. Christian nationalist. Carlson was promptly denounced across social media as a homophobe, a bigot, and a purveyor of hateful Christian nationalism — simply for asking the question we are not allowed to ask.

‘I’m not crying because you’re gay,’ she said. ‘I’m crying because I know that life is going to be harder for you.’

It happened on Carlson’s December 4 podcast, which featured an extensive conversation with “Dangerous Faggot” Milo Yiannopoulos. For those who don’t know, Yiannopolous is a right-wing cultural commentator and provocateur with a pronounced histrionic gay affect. Today, he says he has abandoned homosexuality.

Trauma response

Before I go farther, it’s necessary to clear some underbrush. I am interested in the content of what Yiannopolous said, not in what anyone thinks of him as a person. Whether one thinks he’s honest, dishonest, annoying, or charming is irrelevant. What he says is what I’m interested in.

So what did he say?

“In almost every case, and certainly in every male case, [homosexuality] is a trauma response. It is not a sexuality.”

Milo Yiannopolous speaks for me. I endorse what he said and believe it to be true. I believe I became a homosexual because I grew up under a mother with narcissistic personality disorder, a father who left before I could ever meet him, and an attempted murderer and pedophile for a stepfather.

Let me clear away some more underbrush, though it will probably be fruitless.

1. Yes, I believe the large majority of male homosexuals are homosexuals because of childhood circumstances and trauma.

2. Yes, I believe that most of those who claim that they had no childhood trauma are not being candid — including, in some cases, not being candid with themselves. Personal and professional experience leads me to this conclusion.

3. No, I’m not claiming that every single male homosexual had abusive parents. Yes, I recognize that some male homosexuals come from stable, loving families. I have male homosexual friends who fit this description.

What we used to know

We have lived for so long with the culturally enforced mandate to believe in “born this way” that we have to remind society of what it used to know just yesterday. Those of you in middle age will remember that until the past 25 years or so, homosexuality was understood to be the outcome of an abusive or neglectful childhood.

Not only psychiatric researchers, but everyday Americans noticed that most male homosexuals had troubled or nonexistent relationships with their fathers. They noticed that male homosexuals were unusually close to and emotionally enmeshed with their mothers. They noticed that those mothers often had overbearing, domineering, or melodramatic personalities.

If you’re younger than 40 and reading this with shock, I’m telling you the truth. This view was normal, but it was deliberately re-cast as “homophobia” and “ abuse against gays” in the past 25 years by the same activists who brought you “trans kids,” breast removal of healthy teen girls, and cross-sex hormones for teen boys who “are actually girls.”

That’s the set that brought you “born this way.”

‘Science’ fiction

As I write this piece, I’m struggling with how to give readers some citations. The trouble is that on the topic of homosexuality, just like with all things “COVID,” most people think there’s something called “the Science.” Even based right-wingers who rejected the authoritarian commands that tried to compel us to take mRNA “vaccines” and wear masks jump right to “show me THE SCIENCE” when the subject is the origin of homosexuality.

When the topic is this emotional, people stop thinking and start emoting. They start pretending that humans can’t know anything about the world, can’t recognize any patterns, and can’t come to any conclusions unless a Scientist published a Paper in a a Peer-Reviewed Journal.

Nevertheless, I’ll try. Surprising though it may be, the psychiatric and psychological literature, starting with Freud in the early 20th century, has long noted the pattern I described above. And most, though not all, male homosexuals were sexually abused as children or as minors. (I am a homosexual, but I was not molested as a child.)

Commentator and “ex-gay” Joseph Sciambra has published several bibliographies that round up much of this literature.

Normally, people don’t demand “the Science” on other subjects. No one demands “the Science” before noticing that most teenage drivers are more erratic and dangerous and therefore it pays to drive defensively around them. Everyone knows this, not because they read “the Science.” They know it because they have eyes, ears, and a brain that detects patterns.

Gay Old Party

Today, even conservatives are invested in the “born this way” gay narrative. While I’m pleased that the right wing came around on unfair laws that penalized homosexuals simply for being homosexuals (not laws that properly punished lewd public behavior), I’m not pleased that the average Republican now treats “born this way” as the end of the conversation.

The gay activist set has conquered the right wing. Those conservatives who find the position taken in this piece hard to bear have been manipulated emotionally by gay activists.

If you’re a conservative who finds this uncomfortable or “mean,” I think I know another reason why. You have homosexuals in your family whom you love (so do I, friends). Some of them are your children. And if they’re your children, you’re hearing an implicit accusation: “He’s saying I’m a terrible mother who made my son gay.”

No. I’m not (necessarily) saying that, even if you “feel” that I’m saying that. I don’t know you, and I don’t know how you raised your children. As a peer support coach, I’ve spoken to many moms and dads with gay children. These are loving moms and dads, but sometimes they made mistakes, or divorce or other trauma came to pass in the family.

Even the most loving parents will make mistakes, and the culture outside the parental home is ravening at your children and pushing them to adopt deviant and hedonistic lifestyles. Even the best parents can’t keep all of that out.

‘Coming out’ to my mother

Let me tell you the story of a night in 1986 when I “came out” to my mother at age 12. Align readers know from my past columns that my mother was an abusive, deranged woman who veered into psychopathy at times. But there were moments when a real woman with real feelings came through.

I sat on the avocado-green pleather daybed we used as a couch. My mother was in her armchair, the square glass ashtray and a pack of Merit Ultra Light 100s at her side. It was 8 p.m., and my mother had sent the other children to bed because I had something important to tell her. I think she knew what was coming.

I told my mother that I was gay and that I felt duty-bound to tell her the truth about it. Looking back at myself at 12, I shudder that I was already forming myself into a “gay identity” that would trap me in promiscuity, addiction, and emotional disturbance for decades to come. But I didn’t know any better then.

My mother started crying. It wasn’t her usual self-pitying kind of crying, and it wasn’t her angry crying that would escalate to slaps across the face and screamed insults.

“I worried for so long that I would do this to you, that I would make you gay,” she said while she looked down at her hands. “I never gave you a father, and the father figure I brought into your life turned out to be a monster.”

This was one of the few times in our life together that I can remember when my mother seemed genuine and honest and seemed to care about my well-being. I think her sense of responsibility and guilt was real (my mother wasn’t much for feeling normal parental responsibility).

“I’m not crying because you’re gay,” she said. “I’m crying because I know that life is going to be harder for you. I’m terrified that you’ll get a disease and die early. Please be careful.”

Because my mother had already parentified me, turning me into her “surrogate husband” and emotional caretaker (almost universal with personality-disordered mothers and their children), I started comforting her.

“You didn’t do anything to me, Mom. I was born this way,” I said.

And I believed it.

The limits of tolerance

It is true that my mother never sat down one day and said, “How can I derange my son and turn him into a homosexual?”

But what my mother feared did happen. The abuse, the depravation, the disordered emotions in my childhood home did make me a homosexual. How I choose to behave is my responsibility, but I did not “choose” to be sexually disordered this way. I was just a child.

If you’re reading this and you’re a homosexual or the parent of one or a loved one, and you don’t believe this applies to you, then go in peace. But please let those of us for whom this is important — let us have this conversation. Too many emotionally triggered people do everything they can to shut it down.

They accuse homosexuals like me of being “abusive” and of “hurting” them. No such thing is occurring. All the sympathy “allies” claim to have for homosexuals when we are “born this way gays” evaporates the moment we change our minds. They insult us and call us insane, with more vitriol than actual anti-gay bullies who beat us up in high school.

Silence equals death

We are going to have this conversation. We’re not going to be silenced or manipulated into being good, quiet little gay boys to fit someone else’s fantasy of having a “fabulous” best friend or son.

I lived the “fabulous” life, and it nearly killed me through alcoholism and self-destructive promiscuity. The way I lived brought despair. And I am typical. I am not “just an unusual gay.” My life story looks like the life stories of the majority of gay men. Yeah, I know. They tell you that isn’t true.

They’re lying because they’re terrified that something they’ve relied on too heavily to define themselves as human men may have been a lie all along. I know, because I lied this way too.

Yes, I’m still attracted to men and not attracted to women. I don’t believe I have the ability to change those subjective feelings, but I may find otherwise in time. For seven years I’ve been single and celibate, and I plan to remain so.

Others must choose their own path in their own time. Nothing I’ve written here can honestly be construed as an attack, or an assault, on other homosexuals or those who love them. The truth is not an act of hate or abuse.

What’s real and true matters, and it’s well past time to tell the truth about the lie we call “born this way.”

Blood allegedly was found in a hotel room Nick Reiner checked into hours after arguing with his famed moviemaker father, Rob Reiner, at Conan O’Brien’s Christmas party, TMZ reported.

Nick Reiner, 32, is in custody with no bail after police said he killed Rob Reiner and his wife, Michele Singer Reiner.

When hotel staff entered Nick Reiner’s room later on Sunday morning, they found the shower ‘full of blood’ and blood on the bed, TMZ reported.

The night before the Reiners were found stabbed to death in their Brentwood, California, home, Nick Reiner’s behavior alarmed guests at the party, New York Times reported, citing two attendees who asked not to be named in order to maintain relationships.

More from the Times:

Rob and Nick Reiner got into a shouting match at the party in West Los Angeles, said one of the attendees, who recalled Rob Reiner telling his son that his behavior was inappropriate. The attendee, who did not speak to the Reiners at the party, said that people seemed to be very aware of Nick Reiner’s history with drug abuse, which the family has discussed publicly.

Another attendee said that he did not witness the dispute, but he recognized Rob Reiner in the crowd and noticed the younger Reiner hovering at the fringes of the informal gathering. The guest said that he and other attendees were worried and that several people commented to him on Nick Reiner’s behavior, saying he looked anxious and uncomfortable in a way that deeply unsettled them.

Representatives for O’Brien declined to comment Monday, the Times said.

Nick Reiner used his credit card to check into the Pierside Santa Monica hotel around 4 a.m. Sunday — just hours after his argument with his father — TMZ reported, citing sources with direct knowledge.

Eyewitnesses who saw Nick Reiner check in to the hotel told TMZ he seemed “tweaked out,” but there were no visible signs that he had been in a violent confrontation and there were no bloodstains or cuts on his body.

TMZ added that Nick Reiner’s reservation was for one day, but he never formally checked out.

When hotel staff entered Nick Reiner’s room later on Sunday morning, they found the shower “full of blood” and blood on the bed, TMZ reported, adding that room’s window was covered by bedsheets.

LAPD Robbery-Homicide detectives went to the hotel Monday to gather evidence and interview employees, TMZ said, adding that Nick Reiner was located and arrested about 20 miles away in Exposition Park, near downtown Los Angeles.

Reiner was arrested around 9:15 p.m. Sunday night; authorities were called for medical aid to the Reiner home around 3:30 p.m. Sunday, where the bodies of his parents were found.

Fox News in its video report said Nick Reiner is on suicide watch.

Vice President JD Vance silenced the mainstream media for supposedly exaggerating the infighting within President Donald Trump’s administration.

A new Vanity Fair article published Tuesday portrayed Trump’s White House as chaotic and tense based on several interviews with chief of staff Susie Wiles, who has since called out the “disingenuously framed hit piece.” In the piece, Wiles appears to be criticizing several members of Trump’s Cabinet, even calling Vance a “conspiracy theorist.”

‘A conspiracy theory is just something that was true six months before the media admitted it.’

“Significant context was disregarded and much of what I, and others, said about the team and the President was left out of the story,” Wiles said in a post on X. “I assume, after reading it, that this was done to paint an overwhelmingly chaotic and negative narrative about the President and our team.”

Vance echoed Wiles’ claims that the piece omitted key context — and even embraced the label “conspiracy theorist.”

“Sometimes I am a conspiracy theorist, but I only believe in the conspiracy theories that are true,” Vance said during a speech on affordability in Pennsylvania Tuesday.

Vance also clarified that Wiles’ comments were likely made in a lighthearted manner, like many other interactions they’ve shared. Even still, Vance embraced the accusation and pointed to several political moments in recent years that were branded as conspiracy theories before later being accepted as reality.

“By the way, Susie and I have joked in private and in public about that for a long time,” Vance said. “For example, I believed in the crazy conspiracy theory back in 2020 that it was stupid to mask 3-year-olds at the height of the COVID pandemic, that we should actually let them develop some language skills. I believed in this crazy conspiracy theory that the media and the government were covering up the fact that Joe Biden was clearly unable to do the job. And I believed in the conspiracy theory that Joe Biden was trying to throw his political opponents in jail rather than win an argument against his political opponents.”

A Japanese tech firm says it is moving toward superintelligence with a big step forward in AI.

Integral AI, which is led by a former Google AI employee, announced in a press release that it had made significant progress with its artificial general intelligence model, which can now acquire new skills without human intervention.

‘Integral AI’s model architecture grows, abstracts, plans, and acts as a unified system.’

The AI system allegedly learns its new skills “safely, efficiently, and reliably,” the company said, while claiming that the AI had surpassed its defined markers and testing protocols.

As such, the AGI is allegedly capable of autonomous skill learning without using pre-existing datasets or human intervention. Integral also said the system is able to develop a “safe and reliable mastery” of skills, meaning that it does produce any “catastrophic risks or unintended side effects.”

What those risks or side effects might be is unclear.

The last parameter, which Integral AI said its system adhered to, was to be energy-efficient. The system was tasked with limiting its energy expenditure to that of a human seeking to acquire the same skill.

“These principles served as fundamental cornerstones and developmental benchmarks during the inception and testing of this first-in-its-class AGI learning system,” the press release said. Integral added that the system marked a “fundamental leap beyond the limits of current AI technologies.”

The Tokyo tech company also claimed its achievement was the next step toward “superintelligence” and marked a new era for humanity, with the AI’s learning process allegedly mirroring the complexity of human thought.

“Integral AI’s model architecture grows, abstracts, plans, and acts as a unified system,” the company wrote, adding that the system will serve as the groundwork for “unprecedented adaptability,” particularly in the field of robotics.

This means that with the help of this AGI, autonomous robots would be able to observe and learn in the real world and conceivably pick up new skills in real-world environments without the help of pesky humans.

Jad Tarifi, CEO and co-founder of Integral AI, called the announcement “more than just a technical achievement” that is “the next chapter in the story of human civilization.”

“Our mission now is to scale this AGI-capable model, still in its infancy, toward embodied superintelligence that expands freedom and collective agency,” Tarifi added.

According to Interesting Engineering, the Lebanese founder said he worked at Google for a decade before starting his own company. He allegedly chose Japan over Silicon Valley because of Japan’s position as a world leader in robotics.

President Donald Trump filed a massive defamation lawsuit against the British Broadcasting Corporation on Monday over an edit of his Jan. 6, 2021, speech that appeared in a BBC “Panorama” documentary.

The lawsuit claims that the BBC’s “deceptive and defamatory distortion, doctoring, manipulation, and splicing damaged President Trump in his occupation, damaged his professional reputation, and portrayed him as engaging in supposed calls for rioting and violence that he never actually made.”

‘The FAKE NEWS “reporters” in the UK are just as dishonest and full of s**t as the ones here in America.’

The complaint notes further that the “aggressively anti-Trump” documentary, which aired shortly before the 2024 presidential election and painted Kamala Harris as an optimal candidate, constituted “a brazen attempt to interfere in and influence the Election’s outcome to President Trump’s detriment.”

A tale of two speeches

Trump originally said at 12:12 p.m. in his speech on Jan. 6, 2021:

Now it is up to Congress to confront this egregious assault on our democracy. And after this, we’re going to walk down — and I’ll be there with you — we’re going to walk down, we’re going to walk down. Any one you want, but I think right here, we’re going to walk down to the Capitol, and we’re going to cheer on our brave senators and congressmen and women, and we’re probably not going to be cheering so much for some of them, because you’ll never take back our country with weakness.

The president noted nearly an hour later after first raising concerns about voting irregularities and potential fraud in the 2020 election, “Most people would stand there at nine o’clock in the evening and say, ‘I want to thank you very much,’ and they go off to some other life, but I said, ‘Something’s wrong here, something’s really wrong — can’t have happened.’ And we fight, we fight like hell, and if you don’t fight like hell, you’re not going to have a country any more.”

The “Panorama” documentary spliced and reorganized Trump’s remarks to make it appear as though he said, “We’re going to walk down to the Capitol, and I’ll be there with you. And we fight. We fight like hell, and if you don’t fight like hell, you’re not going to have a country any more.”

In addition to creating a false narrative by coupling two parts of the speech that were divided by over 50 minutes’ worth of content and omitting Trump’s call for supporters to behave “peacefully,” the documentary showed flag-waving men descending on the Capitol after the president spoke — despite the video having been recorded before Trump’s speech.

The Telegraph obtained and reported on a whistleblower memo earlier this year revealing that there were concerns at the BBC over the apparently deceptive work.

The whistleblower memo noted that the “mangled” footage made Trump “‘say’ things [he] never actually said” and insinuated, with the help of the footage of men marching on the Capitol, that “Trump’s supporters had taken up his ‘call to arms.'”

Too little, too late

Last month, the BBC came under fire both in the United States and in the United Kingdom.

White House spokeswoman Abigail Jackson told the Telegraph, “Trust in the media is at an all-time low because of deceptive editing, misleading reporting, and outright lies. This is yet another example, of many, highlighting why countless Americans turn to alternative media sources to get their news.”

Donald Trump Jr. tweeted, “The FAKE NEWS ‘reporters’ in the UK are just as dishonest and full of s**t as the ones here in America!!!”

“This is a total disgrace. The BBC has doctored footage of Trump to make it look as though he incited a riot — when he in fact said no such thing,” wrote former British Prime Minister Boris Johnson. “We have Britain’s national broadcaster using a flagship programme to tell palpable untruths about Britain’s closest ally. Is anyone at the BBC going to take responsibility — and resign?”

In the face of mounting pressure, the BBC issued a retraction, and the director-general of the BBC, Tim Davie, and Deborah Turness, the head of BBC News, both resigned in disgrace.

“Like all public organizations, the BBC is not perfect, and we must always be open, transparent, and accountable,” Davie said in statement. “Overall the BBC is delivering well, but there have been some mistakes made, and as director-general I have to take ultimate responsibility.”

Turness similarly assumed some responsibility for the fiasco, noting the controversy had “reached a stage where it is causing damage to the BBC” and adding that “the buck stops with me.”

‘The BBC had no regard for the truth.’

Turness suggested, however, that the broadcast corporation was not biased.

“In public life, leaders need to be fully accountable, and that is why I am stepping down,” said Turness. “While mistakes have been made, I want to be absolutely clear recent allegations that BBC News is institutionally biased are wrong.”

Samir Shah, the chair of the BBC, subsequently sent a personal letter to the White House apologizing for the edit; however, the network refused to pay compensation, claiming that there was no basis for Trump’s defamation claim.

Former British Prime Minister Liz Truss encouraged Trump to take legal action against the BBC, suggesting in a Nov. 15 interview that the network’s apology was insufficient “because they keep doing it again and again. They have painted a completely false picture of President Trump in Britain over a number of years. They’ve done the same thing about conservatives in our country.”

Pay the piper

Trump’s lawsuit, which was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida and demands judgment against the BBC for at least $5 billion in damages, states:

The lack of any effort by the BBC to publish content even remotely resembling objective journalism, or to maintain even a slight semblance of objectivity in the Panorama Documentary, demonstrates that the BBC had no regard for the truth about President Trump, and that the doctoring of his Speech was not inadvertent, but instead was an intentional component of the BBC’s effort to craft as one-sided an impression and narrative against President Trump as possible.

A spokesperson for Trump’s legal team told the Guardian that “President Trump’s powerhouse lawsuit is holding the BBC accountable for its defamation and reckless election interference just as he has held other fake news mainstream media responsible for their wrongdoing.”

A spokesperson for the network said in a statement, “As we have made clear previously, we will be defending this case.”

A spokesperson for the prime minister’s office noted that while Downing Street will always “defend the principle of a strong, independent BBC as a trusted and relied-upon national broadcaster reporting without fear or favor,” the prime minister’s office has “also consistently said it is vitally important that they act to maintain trust, correcting mistakes quickly when they occur.”

BlazeTV host Liz Wheeler has an interesting prediction for 2026 — and it’s one that most people on the right would be happy to see come true.

“My biggest prediction for 2026 is that a member of the U.S. Congress will be denaturalized, removed from her seat in Congress, and deported from the United States of America,” Wheeler says. “And it’s no secret to whom I am referring.”

She is referring to Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.), who is facing intense scrutiny after an article from the Daily Mail revealed what Wheeler calls “pretty airtight evidence” that Ilhan Omar married her brother.

“Ilhan Omar’s first husband, she married here in the United States only in a religious ceremony. She married a Muslim man named Hirsi. They were married by a Muslim cleric in an Islamic ceremony, but they never married civilly. So their marriage was never recognized by the United States government,” Wheeler explains.

“Ilhan Omar was married to Hirsi for many years. But then suddenly, she, in a civil ceremony, was married to a different man. She married a man named Elmi, the man who is accused of being her brother,” she says.

The marriage secured Elmi residence in the United States, though he later left for the United Kingdom.

“That’s not even the primary reason that Ilhan Omar should face denaturalization. The primary reason is her status as a naturalized citizen was, according to some very credible reports, based on a lie,” Wheeler says.

“Ilhan Omar’s father claimed that he was fleeing Somalia because the communist Marxist regime at the time was after him. But sources tell journalist Ashley Rindsberg that Ilhan Omar’s father was actually a member of that violent communist Marxist regime. He worked in propaganda, and he was fleeing because the government was being toppled by the people and he was afraid for his life,” she explains.

“Well, eventually Ilhan Omar’s father claimed asylum here in the United States, and Ilhan Omar because a naturalized American citizen, but if it was based on a lie, then her citizenship ought to be revoked,” she continues.

And it’s not just Wheeler’s wish that Omar be denaturalized and deported, but border czar Tom Homan has confirmed that she is under investigation for immigration fraud.

“He’s looking; he’s ‘running it down this week,’ he says. Make it come true, Mr. Homan,” Wheeler jokes, adding, “Make my 2026 prediction come true.”
