“Give me your children’s genitals or give me death!”
-Patricia Henry, your local public school librarian

As frontline soldiers in the fight to protect and preserve Our Sacred Democracy™, frumpy, menopausal, and largely childless public school librarians are doing all they can to keep child tranny propaganda flowing directly into the malleable minds of their charges.

This important and heroic work is now docuмented in an award-winning motion picture film titled, simply, “The Librarians,” the trailer for which is overflowing with tense piano music so you understand the stakes here, which, again, saving Our Sacred Democracy™ from Deplorable mothers who won’t surrender their children’s hearts and minds to the state.

Via The Librarians (emphasis added):

“Librarians emerge as first responders in the fight for democracy and our First Amendment Rights. As they well know, controlling the flow of ideas means control over communities.
In Texas, the Krause List targets 850 books focused on race and LGBTQia+ stories – triggering sweeping book bans across the U.S. at an unprecedented rate. As tensions escalate, librarians connect the dots from heated school and library board meetings nationwide to lay bare the underpinnings of extremism fueling the censorship efforts. Despite facing harassment, threats, and laws aimed at criminalizing their work – the librarians’ rallying cry for freedom to read is a chilling cautionary tale.”

From sea to shining sea, no child is free until they’re up to their bigoted little eyeballs in child tranny porn and critical race theory furnished by their local library.

You can almost feel the East Coast critic here, Sheri Linden, orgasming as she pays breathless homage to the “as well-crafted as it is profoundly alarming” pseudo-war film.
Via The New York Times (emphasis added):

“At school board meetings in different states, the librarians are accused of “grooming” children through pornographic material. Most of the supposedly problematic themes deal with race, sɛҳuąƖity or gender. Picture books have even drawn heat for depicting naked children, animals and statues…
At stake are First Amendment rights, and the librarians are shown as the vanguard of efforts to protect them. That one of these school employees appears onscreen in identity-camouflaging silhouette underscores the level of hostility they can face.
Several of the women featured in “The Librarians” were fired for refusing to remove books from shelves — or sometimes for merely asking questions about the directive to do so. The sense of emergency makes the profiles in courage all the more heartening. From its superb opening-credits sequence paying tribute to card catalogs of yore to its sharp selection of vintage clips and intimate reportage, “The Librarians” is as well-crafted as it is profoundly alarming.”

For the record — and, of course, no one learns this in public school for some reason — Weimar-era Berlin was a hotbed of Cultural Revolution-style transgender agitprop.
Via History | sɛҳuąƖity | Law (emphasis added):

“By the interwar years… adopting the term “transvestite” to characterize gender-variant expressions and identities had become a possibility. Sexologist Magnus Hirschfeld coined this popular label with a bulky 1910 study on the theme, publishing numerous case histories to help distinguish “transvestism” from older ideas of “inversion” or a “third sex.” He viewed cross-gendered identifications as most often a lifelong condition—a view we also see reflected in Jank’s narration of Karl, albeit in a more popular mode…
Such labels were also being taken up by sɛҳuąƖ rights activists. New magazines aimed at same-sex desiring or trans-identifying readers with names such as “Girlfriend” or “Friendship” were vocal in calling for separate “transvestite” organizations. They seized on this and similar labels for their potential to broaden the claims of sex-gender minorities to the full rights of legal citizenship…
In the Weimar era… queer and trans politics were closely entwined. While cross-dressing was not strictly illegal, falling under the “mischief” and “nuisance” laws outlined above, many AMAB individuals found themselves vulnerable to arrest under Germany’s notorious anti-ɧoɱosɛҳųαƖ Paragraph 175. This particular form of persecution only increased following the nαzι seizure of power in 1933…
The Weimar ɧoɱosɛҳųαƖ and transvestite publications and organizations were dominated by middle-class views. While authors and activists argued for greater acceptance of sex-gender minorities, they tended to do so by marginalizing subjects who did not fit easily with bourgeois ideals of decorum. Historian Laurie Marhoefer describes this as exemplary of the “Weimar settlement on sɛҳuąƖ politics”—toleration for many at the expense of a few. They also show how the Weimar-era push for respectability often entailed assumptions about whiteness and European superiority that have continued to shape LGBTQ+ politics into the present.”

And the world witnessed the popular backlash that unbridled social engineering program engendered.

I don’t know how long parents will continue to abide the tranny indoctrination of their children in government facilities, whom they presumably send to public school expecting to learn math — but it can’t be forever.
So maybe the public school librarians, if they keep it up, might — in reality instead of their own imaginations — become the true martyrs of Democracy™ they’re currently pretending to be for social accolades from liberal wine moms.

Congressional Feeding Trough Remains Open and Well-Stocked Despite Government Shutdown

Benjamin Bartee
Nov 01, 2025

“There’s hope in the words and emotion in the eyes
It’s so easy to be misled by the savvy gentle guise
And like fools we trust the delivery
But it’s all just drunk sincerity”
-Bad Religion, ‘Drunk Sincerity’

The decrepit fiends of The Swamp are out in full force putting on a big show of solidarity with all of their subjects constituents left out in the rain when the gears of state grind to a halt.
What they rarely, if ever, mention is that their paychecks arrive regardless of whether the government gets shut down or not, or for how long.
Via Constitution Center (emphasis added):

“Over in the Legislative Branch, the support staff for Congress would be affected. “During a funding gap, pay for congressional employees would not be disbursed if there is no appropriation to fund legislative branch activities,” the CRS says. Staffers deemed critical would need to work because they are needed to “support Congress with its constitutional responsibilities or those necessary to protect life and property.”
But members of Congress will still get paychecks, under two parts of the Constitution. Article I, Section 6, says that congress members “shall receive a Compensation for their Services, to be ascertained by Law, and paid out of the Treasury of the United States.” The 27th Amendment also forbids any change in the compensation rate for Congress during a current term.”

Here is Democratic Whip of the U.S. House of Representatives, Katherine Clark, describing the denial of millions of Americans the benefits they have been conditioned to rely on, as points of political “leverage”:

“Of course, there will be, you know, families that are going to suffer. We take that responsibility very seriously. But it is one of the few leverage times we have.”

VIDEO


One can argue about the merits of the Democrat demands; extending Affordable Care Act tax credits, although by no means a permanent solution to the ongoing controlled demolition of the middle class by neoliberal policymakers or the farce that is the so-called healthcare system, would help working-class taxpayers barely scraping by significantly in the short term.
But the essential issue is that the Congress members playing the cards don’t actually have any chips in the game; it’s all House money, as it were. The suffering of their constituents, as laid bare in the above quote, is just another point of “leverage” in the political games they play (with other people’s money).
From a broader perspective, in the same way that the CIA budget doubled in the two decades after the greatest intelligence failure of all time, 9/11, the career success of your standard Congressman is wholly untethered from whatever results he does or doesn’t produce for his constituents. As long as the august Senator plays the game right, as long as he services his actual constituency, the donor class, he wins — no matter how much his theoretical constituents suffer.

This entire spectacle is the product of a political system in which the governing authorities and the governed occupy two entirely separate castes of society, with little to no intercaste mobility.
The members of the subordinate underclass who do break the mold, like Marjorie Taylor Greene, either sell their souls on arrival (like AOC) or else are quickly shunned just as soon as their colleagues catch the slightest whiff of populist sentimentality.
This is class war — but an asymmetric one, waged by the permanent governing class against the (increasingly permanent) underclass. It’s socialism for them, as they feed off of government largesse and abuse the mechanisms of state to enrich themselves, and bootstrap capitalism for you.

They are the residents of the Capitol; we are the rabble of Panem.

“Taking the kids from our districts, forcing them to kill one another while we watch – this is the Capitol’s way of reminding us how totally we are at their mercy. How little chance we would stand of surviving another rebellion. Whatever words they use, the real message is clear. “Look how we take your children and sacrifice them and there’s nothing you can do. If you lift a finger, we will destroy every last one of you. Just as we did in District Thirteen.”

There sits in Congress a proposed constitutional amendment, championed Rep. Eli Crane, that would halt, with no backpay, all Congressional salaries during any government shutdown.
Via Rep. Eli Crane (emphasis added):

“As many of you are aware, the federal government officially entered a shutdown yesterday. While the House of Representatives passed a funding extension through November 21, 2025, the measure still requires 60 votes in the U.S. Senate before heading to the President’s desk.
Unfortunately, only two Democrats and one Independent currently support this effort, meaning the government will remain shut down until five more Democrats vote in favor of the bill.
In the meantime, Rep. Eli Crane (R-AZ) has requested that his pay be withheld for the duration of the shutdown. He believes it is inappropriate to receive a salary while many Americans are furloughed or facing delayed paychecks.
Furthermore, Rep. Crane has cosponsored a constitutional amendment introduced by Rep. Ralph Norman (R-SC), which would prohibit lawmakers from receiving pay during government shutdowns. It would also preclude Members of Congress from receiving any back pay afterward.”

While laudable on its own merits, however, this bill is by no means a panacea for what ails the country; the real gold mine for these people is not their relatively paltry salaries (about $112,000/yr for rank-and-file) but all of the insider trading they’re allowed to do with impunity and all of the cushy board positions and lobbying gigs they’re awarded — and their family members; see Hunter Biden — by their donors after their loyal “public” service.
Nancy Peℓσѕι didn’t become a hundred-millionaire cashing her government checks; she made that money parlaying her government position for private gain.
The entire governing structure is broken, in that modern D.C. in no way represents anything close to what the Founding Fathers envisioned.
On the contrary, it more resembles the predatory, parasitical foreign regime from which they liberated themselves at great personal peril.

‘Social Infertility’: Where Biomedical Profiteering Intersects Social Justice™

Benjamin Bartee
Nov 28, 2025




“The global surrogacy* market was estimated at USD 22.4 billion in 2024. The market is expected to grow from USD 27.9 billion in 2025 to USD 201.8 billion in 2034, at a CAGR of 24.6% during the forecast period,” per Global Market Insights — nearly a ten-fold increase over less than a decade.
*”Global surrogacy” being a euphemism for economically endowed ɧoɱosɛҳųαƖs growing children in Third World women’s wombs so as to commandeer them upon birth — ostensibly to raise them as their own, but realistically for whatever possibly depraved purposes tickle their fancy.
A whole sub-genre of social media posts has sprung up in recent years in which progressive ɧoɱosɛҳųαƖ couples pose with newly purchased babies — in the same manner that big game hunters pose with the bucks they poach — using them as tools for harvesting social clout and living out their fantasy of having a “family,” with society at large expected to play along with the rouse or risk being labeled homophobic.
(Here’s ultra-progressive Pete Buttigieg, for instance, recounting how he bought a pair of black babies for a “discount.”)
These “fathers” are what the medical literature, in the service of advancing the LGBTQ4GF150+++™ cause and the biomedical industry, has termed “socially infertile.”
Via Springer Nature (emphasis added):

“In the United States, single individuals and LGBTQ couples who wish to conceive biological children are considered to be “socially infertile” due to their relationship status. Due to the high cost of infertility treatments and inadequate insurance coverage, the socially infertile has minimal access to assisted reproductive technology (ART). Under the current medical definitions of infertility, even in states with infertility insurance mandates, only heterosɛҳuąƖ couples with physiological infertility are covered for ART. It is well docuмented that infertility interferes with many aspects of the human experience and reduces the quality of life for involuntarily childless individuals regardless of whether the infertility is physiologically or socially based. Physiological infertility was initially considered to be a private issue before being recognized as a medical diagnosis and has since legitimized heterosɛҳuąƖ couples’ access to ARTs. The medical diagnosis of infertility not only affirms that their intention to conceive biological children is justifiable but also confirms that it is a condition that can and should be treated with current medical interventions. Expanding the current definition of infertility to include social infertility will elevate it to a treatable medical condition, justifying the use of ART for such individuals and potentially alleviating the negative impacts of infertility. Thus, states with infertility insurance mandates should provide the same infertility coverage to socially infertile individuals as physiologically infertile heterosɛҳuąƖ couples.”

By definition, of course, “social infertility” is not a medical condition; it’s a social one.
But shoehorning “social infertility” into the medical literature as an official diagnosis guarantees a boon of services available to the LGBTQ “community” that were previously reserved for legacy couples experiencing actual infertility.
Via Wildflower (emphasis added):

“Social infertility is a newer term used to describe situations where people want to become parents but are not biologically able due to social or relational circuмstances. This includes factors like sɛҳuąƖ orientation, relationship status, and life circuмstances, which might necessitate fertility treatments. In support of this movement, in the fall of 2023, the American Society for Reproductive Medicine (ASRM) updated their definition of infertility to include “anyone needing medical interventions to achieve a successful pregnancy either as an individual or with a partner” (ASRM 2023). Additionally, in 2022, Illinois updated its legal language around infertility to be more inclusive of the LGBTQIA community and single people, recognizing one of the definitions of infertility as “a person’s inability to reproduce either as a single individual or with a partner without medical intervention” (Illinois General Assembly 2022). This change mandates many (though not all) insurance plans within Illinois to cover fertility treatments for people experiencing social infertility.”

Thus, the medical and moral justification is laid for legitimizing and subsidizing an industry in which reproductively healthy, capable people in deviant — “deviant” not necessarily being a moral judgment, just an accurate descriptor — sɛҳuąƖ relationships purchase children, mainly from the impoverished women of the developing world in desperate need of cash.

Babelplatz 2.0 is an option. Talk about book burning what did the allies do to David Irving for legitimate investigative journalism? Oh that’s right they destroyed his life threw him in prison and made it a living hell on not just him but his family.
