The nation’s leading press release distributor refused to send out a bulletin from a medical nonprofit announcing a new database that tracks child sex change procedures. PR Newswire on Tuesday refused to send out a release from Do No Harm announcing the launch of its Stop the Harm database, which uses insurance data to document the number of sex change interventions performed on children across the country. The analysis reveals that a minimum of 13,994 children underwent sex changes from 2019 to 2023, as The Daily Wire reported this week. The total figure, however, could be much higher, as the analysis relies on available insurance data and could not account for certain providers. The wire service told Do No Harm that its release was “not suitable for distribution,” claiming it was “sensationalist and makes unsubstantiated claims.” Pressed by Do No Harm to change its decision, PR Newswire doubled down. “It has been determined that the original refusal still stands,” the group said. “We will not be able to move forward with this release, and no changes would make it permissible.” PR Newswire’s refusal to publicize Do No Harm’s release comes after powerful companies have censored detransitioners who’ve spoken out about the dangers of sex change interventions. YouTube censored the story of one young woman who underwent an irreversible surgery, and detransitioners were recently kicked out of an American Academy of Pediatrics Conference. Do No Harm Executive Director Kristina Rasmussen told The Daily Wire that PR Newswire’s decision is rooted in bias. “It is incredibly disappointing that PR Newswire would censor our database that analyzes thousands of data points using a methodology reviewed and supported by medical experts,” Rasmussen said. “Their subjectivity and obstinance in the face of truth betrays their ideological bias.” While PR Newswire refused to publicize Do No Harm’s press release, the company has repeatedly distributed press releases from far-left, pro-transgender organizations. That includes a release from the KinkD App, which describes itself as “a leading kinky dating app for the BDSM & fetish community.” On another occasion, PR Newswire distributed a release from the Trevor Project insinuating that laws protecting children from medical sex change interventions could drive kids to suicide. “With such striking numbers and families literally wanting to uproot their homes to seek safety, lawmakers must seriously reconsider the real and damaging impact that their anti-LGBTQ+ policies and rhetoric create,” the release read. “No ‘political victory’ should be worth risking the lives of young people.” The company has also spread press releases from far-left organizations that promote child transgenderism, including the Human Rights Campaign and GLAAD. “Corporate America has become too comfortable in their complicity with the nationwide pseudoscience experiment being performed on innocent children who will never be the same,” Rasmussen said. PR Newswire did not immediately respond to a request for comment. 

A decade after the first state moved to legalize recreational marijuana, the dangerous effects of the drug are coming to light. Across the country, physicians are seeing more people with marijuana addiction, psychosis including delusions or paranoia, schizophrenia, and a serious syndrome involving severe vomiting as more people use the drug, The New York Times found. The outlet examined medical records, insurance data, and spoke to hundreds of doctors and marijuana users. Emergency rooms are seeing more people present with cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome, a condition involving “severe vomiting,” nausea, and pain caused by heavy marijuana consumption. The condition can cause extreme dehydration, seizures, kidney failure, cardiac arrest, and even death. At least eight people have died in the U.S. from the condition, the Times reported. One Maine pediatrician said she sees teenagers who use marijuana almost all day, every day, “a remarkably scary amount,” and are dependent on it. A Massachusetts psychiatrist said she is seeing more cases of schizophrenia related to cannabis use. Even temporary psychosis from marijuana use can last months in some cases. Some research suggests that about six million people who use the drug almost daily could have symptoms of cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome. One emergency room doctor in Aurora, Colorado, said his hospital treats people with the condition daily. A Michigan pediatrician said she sees the syndrome all the time as well. About 18 million people, nearly a third of all adult users, reported symptoms of cannabis use disorder, meaning they continue to use the drug despite significant negative effects on their lives, a new data analysis of the 2022 U.S. national drug use survey showed. Younger users especially tend to misuse the drug. Nearly 17% of people 18 to 25 have cannabis use disorder, now higher than the 15% rate of alcohol use disorder, according to last year’s National Survey on Drug Use and Health. More than 4.5 million of these young people use the drug every day or almost every day. This is also concerning since marijuana use affects brain development until around age 25. Am I Racist?

Marijuana is a $33 billion industry in the U.S., and the new products are much more potent than the versions of the drug that were around several decades ago. In the 1990s, marijuana had about 5% THC, the substance that causes the drug’s “high.” Today, some products sold include concentrates with as high as 99% THC. Only two states limit the amount of THC in most recreational marijuana products. Recreational marijuana is now legal in 24 states, but it is still illegal under federal law. Initially, advocates pushed to legalize medical marijuana to ease the suffering of chronically ill people. However, the push largely in Democrat-led states for recreational legalization did not take long, spurred by activists who opposed keeping people convicted of lower-level marijuana offenses in prison, particularly black offenders.

Republicans are planning to focus on Vice President Kamala Harris’ Tuesday comments on “The View” in an ad blitz that will run up until Election Day, Axios reported. Harris was blasted after telling “The View” hosts “nothing comes to mind” when asked if she would have done anything differently than President Joe Biden. “Well, obviously, we’re two different people, and we have a lot of shared life experiences, for example, the way we feel about our family and our parents and so on,” Harris said. “But we’re also different people and I will bring those sensibilities to how I lead.” Harris added that she has “been a part of most of the decisions that have had impact.” The View: Would you have done something differently than President Biden during the past four years? Kamala: "There is not a thing that comes to mind." pic.twitter.com/1UB3PHTmBC — Washington Free Beacon (@FreeBeacon) October 8, 2024   An unnamed ally of former President Donald Trump reportedly told Axios on Wednesday that voters should “[e]xpect to see this clip every single time you turn on the television between now and Nov. 5.” Harris’ campaign slogan is “A New Way Forward,” but she has doubled down on supporting the policies pursued by the Biden-Harris administration for nearly four years. Am I Racist? Is In Theaters NOW — Get Your Tickets Here! The Trump campaign has already circulated the clip of Harris on X and highlighted comments made on CNN by Wall Street Journal Senior Political Correspondent Molly Ball, who blasted Harris. “I’m surprised frankly that she doesn’t have more to say about this given that she and her campaign know this is one of the main questions voters have about her,” Ball said. “And one of the main things she’s been trying to establish as part of her candidacy is that she would represent a break from the past four years.” CNN cooks Kamala Harris over saying there is nothing she would have done differently than Biden: "I'm surprised frankly that she doesn't have more to say about this given that she and her campaign know this is one of the main questions voters have about her." pic.twitter.com/ddZvUFNV6F — Trump War Room (@TrumpWarRoom) October 8, 2024 Harris was also widely criticized after her interview with “60 Minutes” that aired on Monday. During the interview, Harris was pressed multiple times after dodging questions, including on the Biden-Harris administration’s immigration policies. The vice president was slammed over the interview even after it appeared that CBS News edited the discussion in Harris’ favor. “I got to watch last night, ’60 Minutes,’” Trump told Daily Wire Editor Emeritus Shapiro on Tuesday. “And she answers questions like a child. This is not a president.” “Every time she does an interview, she sounds like a child,” he added. “She sounds like a person with a very low IQ, you know?”

Mid-August to late October tends to be peak hurricane season for Florida. Between the recent impact of Hurricane Helene and the arrival of Hurricane Milton tonight, it’s clear this year is particularly rough. While word of tonight’s storm has been around for a while, it intensified rapidly. As a result, millions are under evacuation orders. It’s no wonder, then, why so many meteorologists are doing whatever they can to prepare folks for the dangers to come. One of those meteorologists is John Morales. He is a hurricane specialist for NBC6 Miami. Recently, he was tasked to give a live update on the storm. While doing so, however, John got emotional. So much so, in fact, that he had to briefly pause. This moment of genuine empathy and vulnerability continues to touch viewers from all around the world. See this moment for yourself in the video below. “At that moment on television yesterday … I can tell you that it’s angst over the multiplication of extreme weather events and their severity,” John explains, adding, “It’s empathy for future victims because these hurricanes really wreck lives and take lives.” If you’ve been keeping up with the latest news on Hurricane Milton, you’re likely not surprised by John getting emotional. As of writing this article, it has been downgraded to a Category 4 storm. Even still, the destruction is expected to be devastating, and potentially one of the most destructive on record. Meteorologist’s Vulnerable Moment On Air When Discussing Hurricane Milton Touches Hearts View this post on Instagram A post shared by John Morales (@johnmoralestv) It’s also no wonder, then, that so many are finding comfort in the way John cares so deeply about those affected by the increase in deadly storms like this one. “No apology is ever needed for being human and showing what we see so little of these days: genuine empathy. Thank you, sir,” someone shares on social media, with another adding, “Your kindness and humanity are not a weakness, but the strength that we all need right now. Thank you.” You can find the source of this story’s featured image here! The post Meteorologist Can’t Hold Back Tears Covering Hurricane Milton In Emotional Display appeared first on InspireMore.
