Colorado's recently passed bill, #HB1312, has successfully pitted gender affirmation against religious freedom and the First Amendment. This op-ed explains how it could get messy:
#KellyLovingActchristianpost.com/voices/colorad… There are complex factors involved in the rise of transgender youth — to include screen time spent with social media influencers, home, school and even environmental factors.

Studies show a disproportionate number of #transgender kids are special needs. npr.org/2023/01/15/114…

Higher education does not just have a history of defending academic freedom and the #FirstAmendment — but the propaganda of its time.

"The Nazi Sympathizers Who Ran American Universities":
forward.com/culture/127097… Ivy League schools would have Americans believe taxpayers owe them money and that their tax-exempt status comes with no federal strings attached. This, too, is a triumph of #propaganda over fact:

FACT: The Obama administration lifted a longstanding ban on propaganda, reversing the #SmithMundtAct.

Lifting the #PropagandaBan flung open the door to the spread of government-made news to Americans.

"Apple Pie Propaganda? The Smith–Mundt Act Before and After the Repeal of the Domestic Dissemination Ban": northwesternlawreview.org/issues/apple-p… RESULT: Americans saddled with a negative feedback loop ever since.

Government exploits social/#media to selectively amplify and #censor information.

Media distortion fuels still more polarization/drama.

Government, in turn, fuels its own #resistance.

Etel Haxhiaj, a Worcester, MA councilwoman, has been arrested for her incendiary role in an #ICE detention facility protest: nypost.com/2025/05/10/us-…

As an Albanian immigrant who reportedly arrived in 2001, #EtelHaxhiaj presumably knows firsthand it's not fair to cut in the immigration line.

She, of all people, should understand that crossing borders illegally is often motivated by the awareness that economic hardship is not a qualifying criteria for #asylum — or worse, ineligible to "come here the right way" because of ties to transnational gangs, terrorist organizations, etc.

If, however, Etel Haxhiaj committed some form of immigration fraud herself, it could explain why she's on the wrong side of federal immigration law.

Perhaps it's time Congresswoman Haxhiaj's motivations for defying the laws of a country whose laws and Constitution she was sworn to uphold and defend as part of her oath of citizenship — and oath of public office! — should be scrutinized. After all, there is likely nothing in MA law prohibiting a noncitizen from running for government office — even if they themselves can't vote! — and/or no requirement that candidates on a ballot undergo a #BackgroundCheck, either.

Now that Ms. Haxhiaj has thrown herself into the national spotlight, it's time to vet her beyond the narrow confines of District 5. FACT: The outcome of resisting arrest is never pretty.

Easy Come, Easy Go: Day One Biden reversed Trump 45's executive orders. "Rule by EO" is NOT a long-term solution. Why isn't the House/Senate doing their job?

"Trump signs order seeking to overhaul US elections, including requiring proof of citizenship":apnews.com/article/voting… Without House/Senate action:

#VoterID reversed after Trump leaves office;
No #ImmigrationReform = #OpenBorders;
Vaccine mandates reinstated;
Return of cllimate-driven war on energy/farming;
Cashless currency.

Why? Because Trump is using executive order vs. legislative process.

California and New York are the proving grounds for how much of a cost-of-living crisis Americans will put up with before #SeeingRed replaces #VoteBlue: The definition of insanity is voting for the same party over and over and expecting a different result. Imagine a day when most restaurants and shops are vacant — and most Americans are jobless! — not because of a pandemic but because of an economic apocalypse. Will voters see fit to stop this before it's too late?
