Published

Today we are all reacting to yesterday’s riots in Washington where Trump supporters stormed the Capitol building.  Here’s an excellent story from the UK’s ITV News. Reported by its Washington correspondent Robert Moore, much of the footage is shot inside as the violent mob stormed in through doors and broken windows.

It’s well done and a shining example of great reporting. Cudos to Mr. Moore and his crew who reported what they saw, asked questions, and put together an extraordinary piece while being in significant danger.

Number of young people identifying as ‘transgender’ declines sharply: report

Published on

From LifeSiteNews

By Doug Mainwaring

“We have been winning legislatively for the last three years but now we are winning culturally,” said Chloe Cole, a leading voice for young people who have “detransitioned” after having medically, surgically, and socially attempted to “transition” to a member of the opposite sex.

A new report posted on X shows a steep decline in the number of young people who identify as “non-binary,” suggesting that the non-conforming sexual identity contagion that has infected so many young lives over the last few years is now retreating.

“Trans identification is in free fall among the young,” author and commentator Eric Kaufman wrote on X above a chart showing the plummeting numbers of “Students Not Identifying as Male or Female” at select college campuses.    

“Non-conforming sexual identity (queer, questioning, etc.) is also in sharp decline,” Kaufman noted in his X thread, adding that the numbers of those identifying as “Gay and lesbian are stable while heterosexuality has rebounded by around 10 points since 2023.”

“Not only this, but freshmen in 2024-25 were less trans and queer than seniors whereas it was the reverse when BTQ+ identity was surging in 2022-23. This suggests that gender/sexual non-conformity will continue to fall,” Kaufman predicted.

Kaufman further explained in an article at Unherd.com:

The Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression (FIRE), which conducts a large annual survey of US undergraduates, polled over 60,000 students in 2025. My analysis of the raw data shows that in that year, just 3.6% of respondents identified as a gender other than male or female. By comparison, the figure was 5.2% in 2024 and 6.8% in both 2022 and 2023. In other words, the share of trans-identified students has effectively halved in just two years.

Elon Musk greeted the new survey results with exuberance.

“The awful illusion has finally been shattered, with increasing repercussions for the modern-day Mengeles who mutilated children,” Musk declared in a viral post that has been viewed over 6.5 million times in less than three hours.

“The obvious truth is that you can change your appearance and dress with varying degrees of success, and I don’t oppose consenting, peaceful adults who do so, but you can never truly turn a man into a woman or a woman into a man,” Musk said. “That is biologically impossible.”

“We have been winning legislatively for the last three years but now we are winning culturally,” said Chloe Cole, a leading voice for young people who have “detransitioned” after having medically, surgically, and socially attempted to “transition” to a member of the opposite sex.

“We need to keep this up, no child is born wrong (body)” Cole said.

“Let’s finish the job!” Cole said in a separate post on X. “Every detransitioner should sue their doctors for every penny they have.”

Signed and sealed: Peace in the Middle East

Published on

MXM logo MxM News

Quick Hit:

President Donald Trump on Monday signed a landmark peace agreement ending the two-year Gaza war, declaring “peace in the Middle East” as dozens of world leaders joined him in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt. The deal inks Trump’s 20-point plan, which secured the release of all remaining Israeli hostages and Israel’s gradual withdrawal from Gaza.

Key Details:

  • “At long last, we have peace in the Middle East,” Trump said during his remarks. “It’s something people have prayed for over generations, and now those prayers have been answered.”
  • The signing comes after Hamas released the final 20 living hostages on Monday, following Israel’s weekend withdrawal from portions of Gaza. Trump said mediators will now move forward with phases two through four of his 20-point plan, which focuses on rebuilding Gaza and expanding regional cooperation.
  • Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, who attended the ceremony, hailed Trump as “a man of peace” and announced Pakistan’s nomination of the president for the Nobel Peace Prize.

Diving Deeper:

President Donald Trump on Monday celebrated what he called the “end of an age of terror and death” in the Middle East as he signed a sweeping peace agreement bringing an official close to two years of fighting in Gaza. The ceremony, held in the Egyptian resort city of Sharm el-Sheikh, featured dozens of world leaders and regional envoys gathered under banners reading “Peace in the Middle East.”

“This is the day that people across this region and around the world have been working, striving, hoping, and praying for,” Trump said. “Together, we have achieved the impossible.”

The signing followed the release of the last 20 living Israeli hostages by Hamas and Israel’s repositioning of its forces. Trump said the next phases of his 20-point peace framework would focus on reconstruction and long-term normalization across the region.

“This breakthrough is more than the end of the war in Gaza,” Trump said. “With God’s help, it will be the new beginning for an entire, beautiful Middle East.” He expressed optimism that new nations would soon join the Abraham Accords, the normalization agreements first launched during his first term.

“We’re going to get a lot of people joining the Abraham Accords,” Trump said. “Then you had the Biden administration, the worst in history, and they did nothing on that — or on anything else.”

Under Trump’s first term, Bahrain, Morocco, Sudan, and the United Arab Emirates joined the Accords. With the Gaza war ended and Iran’s nuclear ambitions curtailed after U.S.-backed Israeli operations earlier this year, Trump said “all the momentum now is toward a great, glorious, and lasting peace.”

He credited Secretary of State Marco Rubio for helping negotiate the agreement over nine months of talks, predicting Rubio “will go down as the greatest Secretary of State in U.S. history.”

Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif joined Trump on stage, calling Monday “one of the greatest days in contemporary history” and praising Trump for leading “untiring efforts to make this world a place to live with peace and prosperity.” Sharif added that Pakistan had formally nominated Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize.

Trump concluded his remarks by casting the deal as a new foundation for the region’s future: “If we do this together, the Middle East will become what it was always meant to be — the crossroads of faith, commerce, and humanity. This will be the geographic center of the world.”
