How young is too young to sexually confuse and mutilate your child? In a normal world, the answer would be that it’s unacceptable at any age. Tennessee has recognized the practice of pumping a child full of artificial hormones or cutting off their healthy body parts as child abuse. But in the name of tolerance and acceptance, the Alphabet mafia is challenging the state in the Supreme Court to make child abuse the new norm.

A city council in Michigan has decided not to recite the Pledge of Allegiance during meetings any more after one member seemed to suggest it took up too much time.Last week, the issue was discussed at an organizational meeting for the City Council of Ypsilanti, a city of about 20,000 residents and the home of Eastern Michigan University. That meeting stretched late into the night, and members decided to revisit the issue at a meeting on Tuesday, WEMU reported.'If anybody doesn’t want to say it, I feel like we just individually take the stance to not say it.'Council member Desirae Simmons then introduced a resolution to end the practice, claiming, in WEMU's words, that "the pledge takes up space on their agenda.""I know I don’t feel comfortable pledging allegiance to a flag. And so I don’t participate in that, so I wanted to bring it up as a formal change to our agenda," Simmons explained in a statement."Really, our role is to our residents here in the community, here in the city of Ypsilanti," she further added, according to MLive. "And so I guess that’s what I took my oath of office to, and I think that that’s sufficient."Simmons and four other members voted in favor of dropping the pledge. Only one member, Roland Tooson, voted to keep it."If anybody doesn’t want to say it, I feel like we just individually take the stance to not say it," Tooson said. "I don’t think we should just take it off the agenda completely."During the meeting, members discussed possible alternatives to the pledge, including "breathing exercises or other 'grounding' practices," according to MLive. They also discussed a moment of silence, which is already a regular agenda item."I would just like to maintain the few moments that we have for us to center ourselves," said Mayor Nicole Brown. "... I do enjoy the quiet for a second. For me, I feel like I need that."While council members may make suggestions about possible replacements for the pledge, the mayor ultimately sets the agenda, City Manager Andrew Hellenga told MLive.H/T: Dave BondyLike Blaze News?

Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy headed to Capitol Hill on Thursday to meet with lawmakers about President-elect Donald Trump's incoming Department of Government Efficiency.While walking through the Capitol with one of his children, 4-year-old X, perched on his shoulders, Musk told reporters, "I think we should be spending the public's money wisely."'A serious mandate from the American people.'Musk has stated that he aims to eliminate at least $2 trillion in wasteful government spending.On Thursday morning, Musk took a brief meeting with incoming Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-South Dakota) ahead of a bicameral meeting hosted by House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-Louisiana).Musk and Ramaswamy are slated to speak to Republican lawmakers during the event, which Johnson described as a "brainstorming session" intended to gain a clearer understanding of the DOGE's plans.Johnson stated that he intends to discuss "major reform ideas" to "achieve regulatory rescissions, administrative reductions, and cost savings." He said he hopes to revive "the principle of limited government."Musk previously stated that he plans to cut the total number of government agencies from 428 to 99. During an interview with Fox News, Johnson was asked whether he believes the DOGE will be able to accomplish that mission. "We certainly hope so," Johnson responded. "We have the ingredients; we have the conditions right now to actually be able to make really dramatic change."Ramaswamy replied to Johnson's comments, stating, "The time for action is now."In addition to its goal to reduce three-letter agency bureaucracy, the DOGE also appears to be setting its sights on ending lenient remote work policies for federal employees. Billions in taxpayer funds have been squandered to maintain and power buildings that are either partially empty or entirely vacant.In a Thursday post on X, Musk stated, "If you exclude security guards & maintenance personnel, the number of government workers who show up in person and do 40 hours of work a week is closer to 1%!""Almost no one," Musk remarked.Johnson replied, "Unbelievable. This is EXACTLY why we need the Department of Government Efficiency."Senator Marsha Blackburn (R-Tennessee) declared her intent to introduce legislation that aligns with the waste reduction objectives of the DOGE."My DOGE Act will freeze federal hiring, begin the process to relocate agencies out of the D.C. swamp, and establish a merit-based salary system for the federal workforce," Blackburn said.Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Georgia), who is slated to chair a DOGE subcommittee, said she anticipates there will be "some friction" in implementing the department's cost-cutting measures."But I honestly think that there's been a serious mandate from the American people, and I think that will give, hopefully our side of the aisle, tremendous courage to do the right thing," she stated.Like Blaze News?

On Tuesday, December 4, at approximately 6:45 a.m., United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson was fatally shot outside the Hilton Midtown hotel in New York City in what authorities suspect is a targeted attack. From the assassin-like shooter to the reason that brought Thompson to New York, the circumstances surrounding his death are eerie, to say the least. Dave Landau and the “Normal World” cast, along with guest Derek Richards, discuss the harrowing details of the murder. “Police have released images of the suspect, who is described as a skinny man, standing about 6’1” and wearing all black,” Dave reads from a report. Currently, the shooter is still on the loose. While the suspect himself looks like an average man, the weapon he used to shoot Thompson was certainly not average. “He had a silencer” on the gun he used and an attachment that “[caught] the shells,” says Dave, who plays the actual footage of the shooting (viewer discretion advised). Viewers can see Thompson walking to the Hilton, when the shooter walks calmly into the video frame from what appears to be the street, where police say he was likely lying in wait. He aims his weapon and shoots Thompson with precision multiple times before darting back across the street and disappearing. The gunshots are “so quiet, [bystanders] don’t even know. Cars keep going,” says Dave. Garrett agrees, “That is professional.” “To do it literally right there in Manhattan is insane,” adds Richards, who also assumes that this was no random act of passion by an angry person who was denied coverage, as Thompson was hit with "Hilary Clinton precision.” If the crew is right in the prediction that this was indeed a targeted attack, then the next question is obviously why? This is where the story gets even juicier. According to reports, Thompson was in New York to attend “an investors' conference that UnitedHealth Group, the parent company of UnitedHealthcare, was scheduled to host on Wednesday at the Hilton.” “What was he going to disclose at the shareholders' meeting?” asks Dave. Further, “Brian Thompson was facing a Department of Justice probe for insider trading,” says Angela. “He was obviously trading and dealing with somebody, and they didn’t want that getting out,” Dave theorizes. Garrett agrees, adding, “It couldn’t just be somebody got pissed and pulled a gun, because that would be sloppy,” but “this was so professional, so it’s gotta come from somebody that’s higher-level.” To hear more details of the story and see the footage of the shooting, watch the episode above.

Officials of a New Jersey town now say that a ban on "props" at public comments during hearings does not apply to the Constitution and U.S. flags after the issue led to nationwide outrage and controversy. As Blaze Media previously reported, Edison Township made national headlines when a man was escorted by police out of a hearing for carrying a small American flag while arguing against the decorum ban. While the ban doesn't mention the Constitution or flags, township officials claimed that both fell under the designation of "props" banned during comments made at council hearings. 'We are all proud Americans who believe in the principles, morals, and values the American flag represents.' On Tuesday, the council changed their minds. Township Council President Nishith Patel apologized and claimed that the uproar was a misunderstanding. "Let me be very clear, the Edison Council has never, nor will we ever, ban the American flag from our public meetings," Patel said, a week after kicking a man out of a hearing over his small American flag. "Our nation's flag as well as our state’s flag are both prominently and honorably displayed in our council chamber. We proudly and humbly begin each council meeting with the Pledge of Allegiance to our flag, reaffirming our commitment and loyalty to our country and the history and values upon which it stands," he added. Mayor Sam Joshi reiterated the point. “Our nation’s flag has never, ever been banned, nor will it ever be banned in our municipal complex or any government building that we solely operate. We are all proud Americans who believe in the principles, morals, and values the American flag represents," he said. However, the decorum ban is still in place. Officials simply say now that it does not apply to the Constitution or U.S. flag. Council members who were opposed to the ban said Patel clearly meant to include flags under the rule. "I was there in the room. It was very apparent that he [Patel] banned the flag as a prop if you were holding it," said Councilwoman Margot Harris. Edison is in Middlesex County, which voted heavily for the Democratic Harris-Walz ticket over the Republican Trump-Vance ticket, 52.3% to 44.3%, respectively. Like Blaze News?
