Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin has opened an investigation into recent accusations that two Fairfax County public school employees arranged and funded abortions for two teenage girls without parental consent.

The Republican governor announced on August 13 that he had directed the Virginia State Police to launch a criminal investigation into accusations that Centreville High School social worker, Carolina Diaz, with the full backing of principal Chad Lehman, had scheduled appointments and paid for two minors to abort their unborn children without so much as calling their parents.

Activists marched through Washington, DC, on Saturday to protest President Donald Trump’s deployment of National Guard troops in the capital, with some clashing with law enforcement and surrounding National Guard troops stationed at the National Mall.

Protesters carried signs in English and Spanish reading “No ICE! No National Guard!”, “DC Says Stop the Military Takeover,” and “Resist Fascism.” Chants of “Trump must go now!” were heard through the crowd as marchers criticized the administration’s move to crack down on rampant crime with the federalization of law enforcement.

Two more Republican governors are surging National Guard troops to Washington, D.C., in support of President Donald Trump‘s crackdown on violent crime in the capital.

On Sunday night, South Carolina Gov. Henry McMaster and Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine both announced their respective deployment of troops to the capital. Those deployments include 200 troops from South Carolina and an additional 150 from Ohio.

In both of their statements, McMaster and DeWine said the troops would be there for added support as Trump looks to tackle violent crime in Washington.

West Virginia Gov. Patrick Morrisey announced that he is sending hundreds of National Guard troops from his state to Washington, D.C., to assist with President Donald Trump’s crackdown on violent crime in the capital.

Trump has been targeting crime in Washington over the past week, deploying 800 D.C. National Guard troops as well as taking control of D.C. police for 30 days. Part of the latter order was scaled back on Friday, with D.C. Police Chief Pamela Smith largely resuming control of the department as opposed to DEA Administrator Terrance Cole, who the Trump administration sought to install as an emergency police commissioner.

Despite the setback, the National Guard and federal officers including from the FBI, U.S. Customs and Border Protection, and Homeland Security Investigations have continued to patrol the streets, and as of Saturday, more are set to join them.

A new report details how the Human Rights Campaign, the nation’s largest LGBT lobby, pressures hospitals into child genital mutilation and castration.

A new report from Do No Harm (DNH) titled, “How the Human Rights Campaign’s Healthcare Equality Index Infects Pediatric Hospitals with Gender Ideology,” details how HRC and its charity branch, the Human Rights Campaign Foundation (HRCF), uses a scoring index to measure a hospital’s “compliance with various tenets of gender ideology.” Hospitals lose points if they do not offer or encourage dangerous and anti-human transgender procedures such as male genital amputation, breast amputation, and fake genital construction for children.

“It is time to expose and root out the Human Rights Campaign’s vast influence over healthcare systems. Our report sheds light on how the HRC weaponized its so-called ‘Healthcare Equality Index’ to pressure pediatric hospitals into chemically and surgically castrating children,” said report author Kurt Miceli, MD, in a statement. “By capitulating to the HRC’s political scheme, hospitals have utterly betrayed patients, especially children struggling with gender dysphoria. If health systems care about providing high-quality pediatric care, then they should distance themselves from the HRC and its Index.”

The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is still hard at work cutting billions of taxpayer dollars’ worth of outrageous federal contracts and grants.

In less than a week, DOGE was able to end over 120 federal contracts worth billions of dollars in savings, including a contract to provide Nigeria with a technical advisor. And last week, the agency terminated nearly 500 contracts. This is what we voted for in 2024.

DOGE posted, “Contracts Update! In the last 5 days, agencies terminated 123 wasteful contacts with a ceiling value of $5.3B and savings of $4.2B, including an $857k DOI contract for a ‘technical advisor, Lagos Nigeria’, a $1.5M Dept. of Treasury contract for ‘Word Processing and Document Formatting Services Examination Training’ for the IRS, SBSE and HCO, and a $785k State Dept. consulting contract for ‘staffing.’”

According to statistics from Planned Parenthood’s own annual report, 96.9% of pregnant people who came to its facilities had abortions. They provided support with a miscarriage only 0.9% of the time.

Planned Parenthood committed 187 abortions for every one adoption referral. They gave prenatal care to only 1.7% of pregnant people at their facilities—and that number has been dropping every year. Services for prenatal care are down 63% since 2013.

So, the vast majority of pregnant people who go to Planned Parenthood wind up getting abortions. How many of them decided on abortion before going to Planned Parenthood, and how many came in undecided and were talked into an abortion by employees, is impossible to know.

According to a survey conducted by National Public Research Canada for Campaign Life Coalition (CLC), Battle River–Crowfoot voters are staunchly pro-life, at the same time as pro-abortion Poilievre attempts to win a seat in the Alberta riding.

“Pierre is out-of-step with the voters on abortion”, said Jeff Gunnarson, National President of Campaign Life Coalition. “The survey results place Poilievre’s stance within the small minority of just under 12% of Battle River-Crowfoot voters who support abortion-on-demand throughout all nine months of pregnancy, for any reason or no reason at all.”
