Piers Morgan, Megyn Kelly, J.K. Rowling and more reacted to a new report that claimed to show proof confirming that Algerian Olympic boxer  Imane Khelif — who took the gold in the women’s competition in Paris — is a biological male with a sex development condition. French journalist Djaffar Air Aoudia, who allegedly obtained a medical report, said that an MRI determined “Khelif had no uterus, but instead had internal testicles and a ‘micropenis’ resembling an enlarged clitoris,” Reduxx reported. The fighter also reportedly has XY chromosomes and testosterone levels typical of males. “Confirmation of what some of us said at the time: Khelif is a biological man,” Morgan wrote on X. “The gold medal should now be stripped and awarded to the best actual woman.” Confirmation of what some of us said at the time: Khelif is a biological man. The gold medal should now be stripped and awarded to the best actual woman. https://t.co/iqVlqQhrwr — Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) November 4, 2024 The host of Sirius XM’s “The Megyn Kelly Show” podcast wrote on X, “As we told you – that Olympic gold medal winner is MALE.” Famed “Harry Potter” author J.K. Rowling also wrote on X in response to the article, “Every gender activist in my mentions: ‘But Vogue,'” a reference to Vogue article’s claiming that Khelif was a woman.  Tennis legend Martina Navratilova reacted to the report and wrote that it showed “what we have been saying for months. And for calling his person a man or at least a male, we got called all kinds of names and most of all the women this male took medals and wins from. Just awful.” Former collegiate swimmer and vocal advocate for women’s sports Riley Gaines said, “Remember the man who won an Olympic gold medal in women’s boxing? His medical reports show he has XY chromosomes, male testosterone levels, testicles, & a micropenis. But that never mattered—they believe that words & feelings make you woman, not biology.” OutKick’s Clay Travis added, “Remember the male Olympic boxer who won a women’s gold medal after beating the crap out of all the women? Well @ReduxxMag has the medical reports that prove he’s a man. And just published them.” Former top of Levi executive — and now founder of a pro-women sport’s apparel brand — Jennifer Sey wrote, “Imane is biologically male & has male advantage, however he identifies. “I don’t care what he calls himself, I only care that he is not permitted to compete in women’s boxing. He won a gold medal at the Olympics in an unfair fight. He needs to be stripped of it.” Khelif previously failed gender eligibility tests administered by the IBA, but was allowed by the IOC (International Olympic Committee) to compete against biological women in the 2024 Paris Olympics, since the Olympics’ gender eligibility standard for boxing is based merely on a fighter’s passport. Opponents of Khelif and advocates for girls and women’s spaces in sports spoke out about the gender controversy, but the legacy news media maintained that Khelif was female and categorized any dissent as “false gender claims,” as previously reported.

Former NFL player and ESPN host Jason Kelce broke his silence about a recent incident involving a heckler at Pennsylvania State University — and said that he wasn’t happy with any of what had happened. During the pregame show of ESPN’s coverage of the Monday Night Football Game, Kelce talked about the video on social media — which showed a heckler calling his brother Travis Kelce a “f****t,” after which Kelce threw the person’s phone to the ground and the heckler shoved him down. “Listen, I’m not happy with anything that took place,” Kelce said on the show. “I’m not proud of it. And in a heated moment, I chose to greet hate with hate. And I just don’t think that that’s a productive thing.” “I really don’t,” he added. “I don’t think that it leads to discourse and it’s the right way to go about things. In that moment I fell down to a level that I shouldn’t have. So, bottom line is, I try to live my life by the golden rule. That’s what I’ve always been taught … even though I fell short this week.” Jason Kelce addressed the Penn State phone-smashing incident at the start of ESPN’s pregame show tonight and apologized: “In a heated moment, I decided to greet hate with hate. … I fell short this week” pic.twitter.com/884LtqvFzX — Ari Meirov (@MySportsUpdate) November 4, 2024 Kelce then directed the audience’s attention to the Monday night game between the Kansas City Chiefs and Tampa Bay Buccaneers, noting that there was no need to address the matter further on that platform.  In the video that surfaced on Saturday on X, the former Philadelphia Eagles star was attempting to walk in to the Ohio State-Penn State college football game when he was surrounded outside Penn State’s Beaver Stadium, as The Daily Wire previously reported. One of the people who was walking very close to him was a male college student who pointed his phone-camera in Kelce’s face and began harassing him. In the clip, the person can be heard saying to Kelce, whose brother is dating Taylor Swift, “Kelce, how does it feel that your brother is a f****t for dating Taylor Swift?” A second video showed a close-up shot of Jason looking directly at the heckler while he made the comments. In response, Kelce grabbed the phone and threw it to the ground. He then bent down to pick it up before walking away. In a third clip, Kelce could be seen bending down to pick up the dropped phone, at which point  the heckler put his hand on Kelce and shoved the former NFL player to the ground. Kelce then stood up and lashed out at the heckler, saying “Who’s the f****t now?” before he walked off to attend the game. The video was taken during Kelce’s attendance at the game for an appearance on ESPN’s College Gameday, People magazine noted. Kelce retired from the Eagles in March 2024. He is a host of the “New Heights” podcast with his brother Travis in addition to working for the sports network. Related: Jason Kelce Harassed At Penn State, Smashes Heckler’s Phone

Pennsylvania Republican Senate candidate Dave McCormick made his final pitch to undecided voters in the gymnasium of his old high school Sunday night. McCormick touted himself as a candidate who will bring more positive change to the Senate than his opponent, longtime Democratic Sen. Bob Casey, who was first elected in 2007. “This is a race between change and the status quo. I represent change. I’m a seventh-generation Pennsylvanian, West Point grad, combat vet, businessman, political outsider,” McCormick said. “I’m going there for the sole purpose of shaking things up and getting America back on track.”  I met up with @DaveMcCormickPA who gave his final pitch for why undecided Pennsylvania voters should elect him to the U.S. Senate. Reporting for @realDailyWire: pic.twitter.com/5XZRj73a61 — Kassy Akiva (@KassyAkiva) November 4, 2024 The businessman also pushed back on Casey’s attempt to position himself as a moderate. “If you look at his voting record, he’s voted 99 percent of the time with this extreme liberal agenda, including voting for males being able to compete in women’s sports,” McCormick said. “These positions may be in line with San Francisco liberal extremism, but they’re not in line with Pennsylvania.” McCormick added that, if he wins, he would limit himself to just two terms. “Bob Casey is a 30-year career politician … he’s the son of a high-profile governor, and he’s lived off his father’s name. … And he’s voted on these extreme liberal policies that are simply out of step with Pennsylvania,” McCormick said. McCormick, whose wife, Dina Powell, served as the deputy national security advisor for strategy under Donald Trump, slammed Mark Cuban for claiming that Trump does not surround himself with intelligent, strong women. “For him to say that is factually not true, because President Trump had many strong women around him,” McCormick said. “It’s also just an insult to every woman in America.” McCormick narrowly lost Pennsylvania’s last Republican senate primary to Mehmet Oz, who went on to lose to Sen. John Fetterman.

As early voting has wrapped up, Elise McCue joins “The Tony Kinnett Cast” to discuss what could be the craziest and most contested Election Day in decades. McCue brings a fresh perspective from one of Donald Trump’s final rallies of the campaign, held Saturday in Virginia, which was thought to be a blue state, but is now being seen possibly as up for grabs. Likewise, New Hampshire sits on the precipice of being won by the Republican presidential candidate for the first time since 2000. The legacy media has put its thumb on the scale in favor of one side, but Americans might not be as receptive to their message as in previous elections. Join us tomorrow, Nov. 5, for a legendary marathon of live election coverage from the new Tony Kinnett Cast studio as McCue and Kinnett bring you updates, analysis, and a selection of brilliant guests from 6 p.m. ET on Tuesday to 1 a.m. ET on Wednesday. Catch the live radio show and livestream weeknights at 7 p.m. ET on The Daily Signal’s YouTube, X, or Facebook—and subscribe to the podcast so you never miss an episode or exclusive interview.

Imagine if Trump hotels required parents to show proof of past Republican votes before allowing those parents to use the hotel’s childcare services. No doubt there’d be an outcry over the weaponization of children, of using them as pawns to strong arm a political vision. Doesn’t every child—regardless of what her parents believe—deserve to be cared for by trusted individuals? Apparently, that’s not a core belief of The Nanny Network, a child care agency. The Nanny Network, which specializes in back-up and longer term child care, currently serves parents in Baltimore, Maryland; New Orleans, Louisiana; Richmond, Virginia; and Washington, D.C. But it won’t work with all parents. The Nanny Network was on the cusp of signing a contract with The Heritage Foundation, a conservative policy organization in Washington, D.C. Heritage, which has been a major power player in national politics since its founding in 1973, and The Nanny Network and its sister company, Sidekick, were about to close a deal that would  provide Heritage employees with options for child care and household tasks. Suddenly, the deal was off. Dulaney Dent, president of The Nanny Network and Sidekick, offered little information to Kelly Adams, director of People Operations at The Heritage Foundation. In a call last week, Dent said The Nanny Network’s board had decided the organization could not work with The Heritage Foundation, according to Adams. When Adams pressed Dent for a reason, Dent would only allude to politics. Neither Dent or Julia LeBlanc, the chief communications officer for The Nanny Network, responded to an emailed request for comment. The Heritage Foundation, which is supported by over 500,000 members, advocates for conservative policies supported by many, many Americans. Fifty-six percent of Americans believe their federal taxes are too high, according to Gallup. Over half of Americans (54%) think parents should be allowed to take their child out of school classes promoting a different view on sexual orientation and gender identity. A whopping 84% of Americans support people being required to bring a photo ID to vote. Sound economic policies. Parental rights. Safe and secure elections. That’s what The Heritage Foundation is about: Making sure that federal lawmakers are listening to Americans’ mainstream views on policy issues. But that was enough to get Heritage cancelled. Children of Heritage employees apparently don’t merit vetted and trusted child care providers, according to The Nanny Network. “The Nanny Network publicly claims that ‘family is everything,’ but its decision to cancel its partnership with The Heritage Foundation shows the company’s true colors,” says Kevin Roberts, president of The Heritage Foundation. “Like so many progressives, their leaders are more interested in demonizing those who support family values and protect the unborn than they are in helping women. The Heritage Foundation will continue to stand up for all the wives, sisters, daughters, and mothers who make our organization a great place to work.” The post Cancel Culture Comes for Kids: Nanny Group Won’t Work With Conservative Organization appeared first on The Daily Signal.

In a stunning video brought to public attention by National Review, Brian Lozenski, a leading authority on critical race theory who is Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz’s most important education adviser, calls explicitly for the “overthrow” of America. Here are the highlights of what Lozenski says in the video flagged by National Review contributing editor Stanley Kurtz, a senior fellow at the Ethics and Public Policy Center: “The first tenet of critical race theory is that the United States as constructed is irreversibly racist. So if the nation-state as constructed is irreversibly racist, then it must be done with. It must be overthrown. And so we can’t be like, ‘Oh, no, critical race theory is just about telling our stories, and diversity.’ It’s not about that. It’s about overthrow. It’s insurgent. And we need to be, I think, more honest with that. … You can’t be a critical race theorist and be pro-U.S.” Critical race theory, the ideology injected by the woke Left into schools across the country, holds that America is “systemically racist,” that racism is in our DNA. The implications of this belief are clear enough to anyone interested in reasoning them out. But never before have we heard a leading advocate of critical race theory say out loud that CRT is aimed at overthrowing America. Lozenski isn’t a marginal figure; he is a nationally known activist and academic and the foremost authority on “ethnic studies” in Minnesota. He also is typical of the “destructive Left” that wants to overthrow America.    Walz, who is Kamala Harris’ choice for vice president, may not have seen this particular video. But the former social studies teacher certainly knows the purpose of ethnic studies. It’s the centerpiece of his education program in Minnesota. Walz appointed Lozenski to lead the committee that developed the Minnesota ethnic studies standards on which curricula will be based. As governor, Walz has seen to it that these standards will be enforced in every grade and every required subject in every public school. If the video becomes an issue, Walz of course will try to distance himself from Lozenski. But this will be difficult: Walz’s fingerprints are all over this radical initiative. Katherine Kersten, a senior policy fellow at the Center of the American Experiment in Minneapolis, gives us a flavor of the new Walz-Lozenski standards: First graders must “identify examples of ethnicity, equality, liberation, and systems of power” and “use those examples to construct meanings for those terms.” Fourth graders must “identify the processes and impacts of colonization and examine how discrimination and the oppression of various racial and ethnic groups have produced resistance movements.”  High school students are told to “develop an analysis of racial capitalism” and “anti-Blackness” and are taught to view themselves as members of “racialized hierarchies” based on “dominant European beauty standards.” Although to the average parent the jargon here is (intentionally) impenetrable, virtually every word or term points to the overthrow of America.  Walz even tried to mandate ethnic studies for students who were being homeschooled or attending private religious schools. School boards across Minnesota are required to ensure that curricula and instructional materials are compliant with ethnic studies-related ideology. In obtaining a license to teach, aspiring teachers need to understand how “white supremacy” undermines “pedagogical equity.”  Based on these facts, as well as other Walz behavior (e.g., 30 trips to China), it is clear as day that the Democrats’ nominee for vice president wants to overthrow America. Many people in Minnesota don’t credit Walz with the brain power to understand what he is doing. Walz may have limited gray matter, but it strains credulity to believe that he isn’t aware of the implications of his most important education program. No doubt Walz didn’t dream up his revolutionary agenda on his own. But, like Harris and President Joe Biden, he is quite conscious that he is promoting it.  The revolutionary goals of Brian Lozenski are the key to understanding Tim Walz, and Walz is the key to understanding Harris. After all, the vice president chose Walz as her running mate over several more qualified finalists because his ideology was the most compatible with hers.   That Walz and Harris want to overthrow America sounds unbelievable, but the facts make this conclusion virtually certain. Obviously, both Democrats would deny that this is their intention. Harris and Walz would claim that they simply want to improve America. Even if they actually believe this, their so-called “improving” would end up as what any honest observer would call an overthrowing of America.  And this they know perfectly well.  The post Education Adviser to Tim Walz, Kamala’s Running Mate, Calls for Overthrow of America appeared first on The Daily Signal.
