Minimum age of 11 set for UK puberty blocker trial
Topic: Children and Family
Source: BBC News
Gender-questioning children will have to be at least 11 years old to take part in a clinical trial assessing the risks and benefits of puberty-blocking drugs. The planned Pathways Trial was paused in February 2026 after the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) raised safety concerns and suggested introducing a minimum age of 14, where none had been set previously. It says discussions with the research team have allowed "a number of safeguards", including participation age, to be strengthened. The first children are expected to be recruited in August, although ongoing legal action by some clinicians and campaigners questioning the trial's safety and ethics, may delay that.

The latest such example can be found in the Journal of the New Zealand College of Clinical Psychologists, which pulled the 2025 article of Arna Mitchell who questioned claims that psychology as a field is a tool of “white power.” The editors reportedly declared that such conclusions are “inconsistent” with the publication’s “values.

Whoopi Mocks Whites. ABC’s The View celebrated Martin Luther King Jr. Day by literally laughing at the idea that white people could be discriminated against in any way. While they were laughing at the notion and suggesting it wasn’t real, staunchly racist co-host Sunny Hostin defended the idea of discriminating against whites and claimed that President Trump was trying to “erase” black history. Additionally, moderator Whoopi Goldberg openly mocked the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) for caring about discrimination against white people.

...who taught that MAGA is covert white supremacy. An Indiana University professor who presented the slogan "Make America Great Again" as a form of white supremacy that is "worse than police killing people of color" is no longer employed at the institution. In a graduate-level course, "Diversity, Human Rights and Social Justice," instructor Jessica Adams showed a pyramid graphic listing statements and actions that she called overt forms of white supremacy, which included lynching and racial slurs. Alongside these acts was a list of what Adams calls covert white supremacy, which includes the Trump campaign slogan "Make America Great Again" and failing to challenge racial jokes.

Topic: Children and Family

The Netherlands has confirmed that child under the age of 12 has undergone euthanasia for the first time since the country expanded its end-of-life legislation to include young children. The case was disclosed in a letter sent to the Dutch parliament by Health Minister Sophie Hermans, who said the procedure took place at the end of last year. Officials did not release the child’s identity. The development comes two years after Dutch law was updated to allow euthanasia for incurably ill children aged one to 12. Prior to the change, euthanasia rules applied only to newborns and patients aged 12 and older, reports the Telegraph.

The traditional single-income family once familiar in American culture has continued to decrease. A new analysis from the Pew Research Center has found that for the first time in American history, a majority of households with children now have two full-time working parents. According to 2025 Census Bureau data, 52 percent of married or partnered couples raising children under 18 both work full-time jobs. The traditional single-income family once familiar in American culture has continued to decrease, with just a quarter of households now consisting of a father working full-time while the mother remains at home. Meanwhile, families increasingly depend on two incomes to maintain a middle-class lifestyle

Independent International Commission of Inquiry on the Occupied Palestinian Territory, follows a previous finding in September that Israel’s actions in Gaza constituted genocide. “The deliberate targeting of children is one of the key elements establishing genocidal intent of the Israeli authorities and security forces to destroy the Palestinian group, in whole or in part, in Gaza,” the commission said on Tuesday.

Transgender inmates moved out of Scots prisons today after judicial review

The Scottish Government revealed all prisoners would be segregated by biological sex with immediate effect today, regardless of which gender they identify with. It comes four days after a judicial review ruled that the Scottish Prison Service’s policy of segregated prisoners by gender-identity rather than sex was illegal. And three days after SPS chief executive Linda Pollock wrote a memo to staff insisting “the admissions practice remains in place” while bosses “carefully consider” the ruling. The SNP government then used a planted backbench written question in parliament, in the name of former SNP minister George Adam

...that violate religious beliefs. A Bay Area Christian couple is taking the Sunnyvale school district to court — alleging their child’s elementary school refused to let them opt out of sex and gender identity lessons that contradict their religious beliefs. Justin and Rose Taylor, both devout members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, claim the district flatly declined to excuse their two elementary-aged children from lessons on gender transitions and same-sex relationships in violation of a Supreme Court decision last year that affirmed the rights of parents to opt out of such material on religious grounds.

How trans activists took over children’s books
Topic: Political Correctness
Source: Andrew Doyle
A new report exposes how ideology has been smuggled into classrooms and libraries. Gender identity ideology is not the first religious creed to have seized control over those in power, but it is certainly the most baffling. In our supposedly post-Enlightenment world, it is remarkable to think that so many members of the political and media class have kowtowed to a supernatural belief system which they cannot coherently defend. For the most part, it is clear that very few sincerely hold it to be true. The concept of the ‘trans child’ has been essential to the proliferation of the lie that it is possible for human beings to be ‘born in the wrong body’. If there are adults who experience a mismatch between body and gendered soul, then it must be the case that the same mismatch was present at birth. It is therefore grimly logical that the more children who can be recruited for the genderist cause, the more valid the claims of trans-identified adults.

Proficiency in math, science and English jumped across the board after Gov Sanders signed sweeping changes into law. For years, I have been writing about the decline of public education in the United States. The political power of teachers unions led to bloated budgets as schools pursued ideological agendas over educational advancements. Despite massive budgets, scores of students in major cities have continued to plummet or remain at the same dismal levels.

What the Researchers Missed About Boys

A recent Australian study examined masculinity attitudes among 650 boys attending an all-boys school. The researchers also surveyed parents and staff in an effort to understand how boys develop their views about masculinity. The findings were fascinating. The researchers concluded that many boys continue to embrace traditional masculine ideals. They found that boys valued strength, responsibility, resilience, achievement, protection, provision, and earning respect. They also found that many boys felt pressure to live up to these expectations and were influenced by peers and online voices.

Chicago’s Latest Emergency Is A Word Nobody Can Define: Transfemicide
Topic: Political Correctness

Someone needs to update the spellchecker. Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson has apparently invented a new word. The word is “transfemicide.” Johnson spent part of the weekend reminding residents that Chicago remains under a “Transfemicide State of Emergency.” The term itself appears to have originated in activist and academic circles in Latin America before eventually making its way into reports, advocacy campaigns, and now Chicago City Hall. Apparently somebody decided America was not producing activist jargon quickly enough and started importing it.
