PRISON STORIES: ‘Maddison’ Hall.

For decades, and in multiple countries, imprisoned men have been placed in the women’s prison estate because they have claimed to be women. This has been justified under the guise of compassion for such men, and, we have been told that they are too vulnerable to remain housed with other men.

The following series “Prison Stories” will look at individual cases, the nature of some of these men’s crimes, and at any of the known consequences, to women, of their transfers into female prisons. It will challenge the narrative of particular vulnerability.

Sometimes, I will focus on the cases of men who claim to be women, in prisons, but who have not yet been transferred. As more, and more, countries cede ground to the idea of prioritising gender identity over biological sex, and more organisations adopt Self-ID, this larger pool of men are the potential future cellmates of all female prisoners.

If, and when, they are released, these men will also be granted access to every space designated for women in our society.

The following stories will show that many women prisoners have already been hurt, and essentially thrown to the wolves, because of “gender identity”. Some of the facts presented are, necessarily, distressing.

ON THE FALL OF THE NEW ATHEISM: Brit broadcaster Justin Brierley has a knack for sparking conversations among believers and non-believers. In this lengthy HillFaith video conversation, he tells Biola University Professor Sean McDowell he sees signs of a bit of a spiritual re-awakening in the U.S. and the U.K., prompted in part by the fading influence of the New Atheism that was so prominent a decade ago.

It’s a lengthy conversation but Brierley and McDowell cover a lot of ground, ask more than a few interesting questions and offer some thought-provoking assessments of the current state and possible future direction of public faith, culture and politics in the West.

HOW IT STARTED:

DC Mayor Muriel Bowser had “Black Lives Matter” painted onto 16th St. just down from the White House. Last night protesters added “Defund The Police[.]”

How it’s going: DC crime surges as Democrat councilman pleads for National Guard backup.

A Washington, D.C., city councilman said it might be time to bring in the National Guard as the city continues to be battered by high crime.

“The crime is out of control and getting worse by the day. We must declare an emergency regarding the crime and violence in our neighborhoods and act urgently. It may be time to call on the National Guard to protect the children and innocent people that are losing their lives to this senselessness,” Councilmember Trayon White Sr. said Tuesday at a press conference, WUSA 9 reported.

“I am tired of burying our children. We are too comfortable with the state of our city. We must take action to gain control and protect our residents. Law enforcement is only one part of how we combat public safety issues. It will take all of us to heal our community,” he continued.

D.C. recorded at least 13 shooting deaths in the first five days of August, which surpasses the 10 killings recorded in the first five days of July, according to the Washington Post. There have been at least 158 killings so far this year, according to police, which is a roughly 22% increase compared to the same time frame last year.

Perhaps White might want to call in the Rothschilds to protect DC: D.C. lawmaker says recent snowfall caused by ‘Rothschilds controlling the climate.’

D.C. Council member Trayon White Sr. (D-Ward 8) posted the video to his official Facebook page at 7:21 a.m. as snow flurries were hitting the nation’s capital. The video, shot through the windshield of a car driving west on Interstate 695 through downtown Washington, shows snowy skies while White narrates.

“Man, it just started snowing out of nowhere this morning, man. Y’all better pay attention to this climate control, man, this climate manipulation,” he says. “And D.C. keep talking about, ‘We a resilient city.’ And that’s a model based off the Rothschilds controlling the climate to create natural disasters they can pay for to own the cities, man. Be careful.”

The Rothschilds are a famous European business dynasty descended from Mayer Amschel Rothschild, an 18th-century Jewish banker who lived in what is today Frankfurt, Germany. The family has repeatedly been subject over the years to anti-Semitic conspiracy theories alleging that they and other Jews clandestinely manipulate world events for their advantage.

JULIETTE OCHIENG: Evolution of the Black Leader Myth: Gramsci smiles. “It’s obvious that the two nationally most well-known Black LeadersTM are Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton and I contend that both are created personae, totally supported and publicized by the Organized Left. . . . The point is that there no longer any organic black leaders picked by black people and there have been none for decades. No, not Barack Obama and not the Black Lives Matter crowd. They are all created and supported by the Organized Left and have been since MLK was killed. . . . Two of my young cousins lamented that we don’t have ‘black leaders’ like we used to. Both were born well after Dr. King’s death and are dedicated husbands and fathers of young children. Therefore, I countered that they are black leaders already.”

As I told someone on Facebook recently, if you leave your door unlocked, credit cards on the table, never check your bills, you also can’t prove you’re being robbed. And btw, that scenario is the soul of security compared to our elections. For the metaphor to be fully correct, we’d need signs on the sidewalk saying “come on in. My credit card is on the kitchen isle. I never check my bills, just pay them. Have fun.”
Until we clean our elections, fraud will be out of control. It used to be that they were afraid to fraud openly, in front of G-d and everyone. But they got away with it in 2020. Now it’s Kathy bar the door. Things are going to get out of control, and we’ll be lucky to live through it.

SO, IS HE DISINGENUOUS, MATHEMATICALLY ILLITERATE, PSYCHOLOGICALLY OBTUSE OR ALL OF THE ABOVE?  DeSantis Says Trump’s Election Fraud Theories ‘Did Not Prove to Be True’.

1- What we saw on election night 2020 is completely impossible without fraud. (BTW I personally know one of the poll watchers who was locked out of the polling place when the fraud happened.) 2- For it to not prove to be true, it would need to have been examined, in a rational way. Not you know, run the same faked ballots through the machines and announce all is hunky dory. Also courts would have to give someone, even, you know, other states “standing” to challenge it. 3- given vote by mail ever state or election goes left. It’s a miracle, right? 4- These people don’t behave like they won the election. Psychologically, if they knew they won, they would facilitate investigations and allow talk about it, as Bush and Trump did. They behave like con men who don’t want the con discussed.
So, he’s either a moron, a liar, or has been lied to or thinks we can be lied to. Oh, don’t get me wrong, I’d vote for him against Biden, otherwise the wrong lizard will win. But the gilding is cracking on this one.  We don’t need another W. Or worse, another Pierre Delecto.
