On Saturday afternoon, CNN aired a totally one-sided report by correspondent Gabe Cohen on a couple who fled Missouri for Maryland to make sure their 12-year-old "transgender daughter" can access puberty blockers, aka "gender-affirming care."  After reading a brief about the U.S. Supreme Court planning to take a case to decide whether Tennessee can ban gender transitions for children, CNN host Fredricka Whitfield used all the leftist lingo about "the health care she needs."  When Missouri banned transgender care for minors, one family left the state to find a place for their 12-year-old transgender daughter, but President-elect Trump's promise to roll back transgender rights has them wondering if their child will be able to get the health care she needs. CNN's Gabe Cohen has more. Reporter Gabe Cohen began by showing a clip of himself speaking with the 12-year-old in question, whose face was obscured and was referred to by "Katie," which isn't her actual transgender name of choice. Displaying a Pride flag, "Katie" said "This shows to the world that I don't want to hide and pretend to be someone else." Cohen soon recalled: "Twelve-year-old Katie and her family moved across the country last year to flee state restrictions on their daughter's rights." Then came clips of the parents Sarah and Erez Haluf, complaining about those who oppose transgenderism: SARAH HALUF, MOTHER OF TRANSGENDER CHILD: I don't have the answer of why people hate her and have never met her. Where is Katie allowed to exist? How is she allowed to exist? EREZ HALUF, FATHER OF TRANSGENDER CHILD: Is she allowed to exist? No one wants the child dead, despite the dramatic presentation. After a soundbite of Trump speaking out against trying to change a child's gender, Cohen went on to suggest that Republicans were liars in how they have campaigned against Democrats on the issue: COHEN: Transgender rights have become one of the biggest flashpoints in this country's culture wars, marked in many cases by lies and flat-out conspiracies. DONALD TRUMP (on Fox & Friends): There are some places, your boy leaves the school, comes back a girl. CLIP OF AD: Kamala supports taxpayer-funded sex changes for prisoners. It's not a lie that Kamala supported taxpayer-funded sex changes for prisoners. It's there on tape, in the ad!  After showing another clip of Trump opposing transgenderism, the parents were seen complaining again about how Republicans are handling the issue: EREZ HALUF: This is 100 percent BS. SARAH HALUF: It's sowing fear, and then, by doing that, you're sowing hate. And all of this comes back to people like our child. We thought that by leaving Missouri and coming to Maryland, that we would be safe. And now we're being threatened with anti-trans legislation at a federal level. Nearing the end of the piece, the CNN reporter brought up the possibility that, if Trump is successful in passing a federal law against "gender affirming care" for children, the family may leave America and seek asylum in Canada: COHEN: So families like Katie's are trying to prepare for what's ahead, even drafting an asylum application. SARAH HALUF: We have to start thinking about a backup pan. EREZ HALUF: If push comes to shove, we will need to go north. We will go to Canada. COHEN: What would it take for your family to say, "We need to leave this country"? SARAH HALUF: The federal health care ban would likely be the moment we'd know it's time to leave here. Transcript follows: CNN Newsroom with Fredricka Whitfield November 30, 2024 2:07 p.m. Eastern FREDRICKA WHITFIELD: All right, next week, the U.S. Supreme Court will hear a potentially explosive case involving transgender care. The case centers on a Tennessee law enacted last year banning puberty blockers and hormone treatments for children. Critics say the law injects the state into family medical decisions and overrides parental rights. When Missouri banned transgender care for minors, one family left the state to find a place for their 12-year-old transgender daughter, but President-elect Trump's promise to roll back transgender rights has them wondering if their child will be able to get the health care she needs. CNN's Gabe Cohen has more. GABE COHEN: So what am I looking at here? "KATIE" (ANONYMOUS TRANSGENDER CHILD): My Pride flag. This shows to the world that I don't want to hide and pretend to be someone else. I want to be me. SARAH HALUF, MOTHER OF TRANSGENDER CHILD Our child should have the same rights as any other child. Because she's transgender, doesn't make her any different. COHEN: Twelve-year-old Katie and her family moved across the country last year to flee state restrictions on their daughter's rights. At her parents' request, we're not showing her face, and we're using an alternate name. SARAH HALUF: I don't have the answer of why people hate her and have never met her. Where is Katie allowed to exist? EREZ HALUF, FATHER OF TRANSGENDER CHILD: Is she allowed to exist? PRESIDENT-ELECT DONALD TRUMP: We won't be changing your children's gender with their transgender craziness. COHEN: Transgender rights have become one of the biggest flashpoints in this country's culture wars, marked in many cases by lies and flat-out conspiracies. TRUMP (on Fox & Friends): There are some places, your boy leaves the school, comes back a girl. CLIP OF AD: Kamala supports taxpayer-funded sex changes for prisoners. COHEN: Republicans support more than $200 million on anti-trans ads before the election CLIP OF AD: Kamala is for "they/them" -- Trump is for you. EREZ HALUF: This is 100 percent BS. SARAH HALUF: It's sowing fear, and then, by doing that, you're sowing hate. And all of this comes back to people like our child. We thought that by leaving Missouri and coming to Maryland, that we would be safe. And now we're being threatened with anti-trans legislation at a federal level. COHEN: At least 26 states, including Missouri, have passed restrictions on gender-affirming care for minors. SARAH HALUF: This was their final protest in Jefferson City. We did everything we could to fight this, and there was nothing that we could do to change their minds. We moved to Maryland to be able to access gender-affirming care for Katie. What that looks like is therapy services -- it's clothing -- it's haircuts. And, at this age, it is a hormone blocker to prevent her from going through puberty. KATIE: This is my hormone blocker right here. COHEN: Could that treatment be reversed at some point? SARAH HALUF: Yes, absolutely. It's really a pause button. Katie gets more time to live in the body that she has now. TRUMP: On day one, I will revoke Joe Biden's cruel policies on so-called gender-affirming care. COHEN: Trump has promised federal restrictions on transgender rights, including far stricter rights about gender-affirming care, especially for minors. One trans rights organization saw a nearly 700 percent increase in calls to their crisis hotline after the election. What would happen if your daughter didn't get that care? SARAH HALUF: She would end up going through puberty, and it would be traumatizing to her to see all of those things happen to her body. COHEN: I know you get some treatment from doctors, from other care. What would happen if you didn't get that? KATIE: I would be upset and scared. EREZ HALUF: In the LGBT community, the suicide rate is high for those who are not being supported by their caregivers. SARAH HALUF: We want her to survive childhood. COHEN: So families like Katie's are trying to prepare for what's ahead, even drafting an asylum application. SARAH HALUF: We have to start thinking about a backup pan. EREZ HALUF: If push comes to shove, we will need to go north. We will go to Canada. COHEN: What would it take for your family to say, "We need to leave this country." SARAH HALUF: The federal health care ban would likely be the moment we'd know it's time to leave here. COHEN: What does this symbolize to you? KATIE: Freedom and rights. This proves that everybody has their own rights to be themselves. WHITFIELD: Gabe Cohen, thank you so much for that report.

The leftwing media meltdown over President-elect Trump’s cabinet picks intensified this week with the news that he would appoint Kash Patel, the former Chief of Staff to the Defense Secretary, to replace sitting FBI Director Chris Wray. Journalists applied all the same lazy, nebulous labels to Patel that they had to other nominees, including “loyalist,” “disruptor,” “unqualified,” and the like. But their panic over him specifically goes far further than that. Rather, they appear genuinely afraid that Patel might actually do what he’s said he would: aggressively root out and prosecute corruption at the hitherto unaccountable agency. Considering the relationships that these networks have with career intelligence agency bureaucrats, it’s no wonder as to why. Over the last decade and a half, channels like CNN and MSNBC have hired a slew of former Obama-era Justice Department officials, many of whom were integral members of what someone like Patel would call the “deep state.”     For nearly a decade now, CNN has retained disgraced former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper as a paid contributor, as well as former Deputy FBI Director Andy McCabe, among others. Meanwhile, MSNBC has extended cozy contributor contracts to the likes of former CIA Director John Brennan. Various shows on that network also make a habit of inviting on guests like Peter Stork and Andrew Weissman. These are the sort of people (and in some cases, the actual people) who signed the bogus “51 former intelligence officials say Hunter Biden’s laptop is Russian disinformation” letter. It’s all very swampy. Since Saturday, these same alphabet agency denizens-turned-propagandists have been all over CNN and MSNBC, issuing dire warnings about how very “dangerous” Kash Patel’s nomination is for America. Unfortunately for these swamp creatures and their media enablers, this is the exact kind of behavior that got Trump elected to begin with. When all the wrong people are railing this aggressively against a Presidential appointment, it starts to look like a ringing endorsement not just of Patel himself, but of the idea that perhaps his stated mission has some merit.

The U.S. Secret Service said one agent was involved in a shooting outside of the home of Janet Yellen, the secretary of the treasury, overnight. The agent assigned to Yellen's home in Washington, D.C., confronted several people who were trying to open doors of cars in Yellen's neighborhood at about 1:30 a.m., according to a statement from Secret Service spokesperson Anthony Guglielmi. 'There is currently no evidence to indicate anyone was struck.' "The agent discharged their service weapon, but there is currently no evidence to indicate anyone was struck," he added. "The suspects fled the scene in the sedan, and a lookout was issued to local law enforcement."He said there was no threat to Yellen during the incident, and she was not harmed. "The officer involved shooting incident is under investigation by the Metropolitan Police Department Internal Affairs Division's Force Investigations Team, which investigates all law enforcement officer involved shootings in the District of Columbia," he concluded. Yellen will be replaced by hedge fund manager Scott Bessent if he is approved by the Senate. Yellen has been criticized for inflation during her time at the treasury. In March, she said she regretted claiming that inflation would be "transitory" after it continued to linger and damage Americans' budgets. Bessent has been criticized by some on the right for his ties to billionaire leftist George Soros, but his supporters praise Bessent as a defender of the free market and opponent of deficit spending.Like Blaze News?

Black Ops 6 Season 1 Reloaded is almost here, and despite meaning to be a mid-season top-up of content, it is absolutely crammed. There are new multiplayer maps and weapons, events, a Christmas makeover for Nuketown, and much more, but the headline feature is absolutely Citadelle des Morts - Black Ops 6’s third round-based Zombies map. From teasers, it already sounded like an epic new Zombies experience, but after seeing everything that’s been revealed about it in today’s big Season 1 Reloaded info dump, I think it may end up being even better than Terminus and Liberty Falls.

DELISH! Buck Sexton DROPS Chuck Todd By Pointing Out Why He's REALLY Mad at Biden for Hunter's Pardon

A-HOLE Ways and Means Dems BLISTERED for Trying to Delete SNOTTY Post Mocking Struggling Americans (Pic)

Four years ago, British game dev studio Kinetic Games put out a phenomenal spooky title that brought haunted houses to the comfort of your home.

What would the world be like without the beauty of music to drown out the noise? A world without rich gaming OSTs, GDQ Kingdom Hearts speedrun singalongs, and ABBA. Quite frankly, it's not worth thinking about. Or so you might think.
