Jordan Peterson condemns ‘trans-butchery of minor children’ as ‘a crime against humanity’

“I was told, you know, Xavier might commit suicide if you don’t (allow him to take puberty blockers)”

Every medical professional who has participated in so-called “gender-affirming care” for minors “should be put in prison for the rest of their lives” for committing these “crimes against humanity,” Jordan Peterson stated in an interview with British TV host Piers Morgan last week.

The best-selling Canadian author, clinical psychologist and journalist was responding to a revelation made during a podcast he conducted in July with business magnate Elon Musk. The owner of ‘X’ (formerly known as Twitter) shared how he was “tricked” into agreeing to give his son puberty blockers.

“I was essentially tricked into signing documents, for one of my older boys, Xavier,” Musk recalled at the time. “This is before I had really any understanding of what was going on.”

“I was told, you know, Xavier might commit suicide if you don’t (allow him to take puberty blockers),” he said.

“That was a lie right from the outset,” Peterson interjected during that podcast.

“No reliable clinician ever believed that,” he continued. “There was never any evidence for that. And also, if there’s a higher suicide rate, the reason is because of the underlying depression and anxiety and not because of the gender dysphoria. And every (…) clinician knows that too. And they are too cowardly to come out and say it.”

“I can’t imagine a therapist doing anything worse than that or sitting idly and remaining silent while his colleagues are doing it; it’s pathetic,” Peterson decried.

“So, I lost my son, essentially,” Musk lamented. “They call it ‘dead naming’ for a reason.”

“I think that every single medical professional and psychological professional who has played a role in facilitating the trans-butchery of minor children should be put in prison for the rest of their lives for crimes against humanity,” Peterson responded to Morgan last Thursday.

“It is the worst medical and certainly psychological scandal that I’ve ever seen in my entire life,” he continued. “It’s absolutely 100% unforgivable.”

At least the English-speaking west is suffering from a “psychological epidemic” manifesting itself in a “trans epidemic” based on “pathological” lies that are “beyond belief,” Peterson said.

In the U.S., “at least 8,000 young women (minors) have been subjected to double mastectomies,” the psychologist explained. “And I also know that puberty-blocking drugs are available outside the medical community in the black and gray market at a much higher rate than is occurring within the medical space.”

“And the liars say, ‘those children are now free to show their true identity,’ which is another complete bloody lie,” he emphasized. “It’s so unacceptable.”

Addressing the leftist political parties in the U.S. (Democrats), Canada (Liberals), and the U.K. (Labor), Peterson said, if they believe “it’s a good idea to free up young women in particular to find their true identities as men, there is something seriously sick about you. It’s inexcusable. It’s absolutely inexcusable. There is no evidence whatsoever for any of those gender transformation identity claims.”

Furthermore, he said “the more you know about that surgery, the more it will curdle your spine. It’s experimental medicine conducted by butchering sadists at its absolute worst. What they do to people to transform them into malfunctioning pseudo-members of the opposite sex is far beyond brutal.”

Additionally, evidence has shown “for a very long time that sadists are over-represented in the profession of surgery. And all you have to do is think for about 15 seconds before you can figure out why that might be,” he said.

By their nature, these procedures involving the “sterilization and mutilation of children” are “involuntary” because minors lack the capacity to consent to such “trans-butchery” and therefore such an intervention equates to “a crime against humanity in accordance with UN definitions.”

“And so I just think to call it reprehensible is to barely scrape the surface. And I don’t think it’ll stop till there are the right length of prison sentences for the people who’ve been involved in it,” Peterson concluded.

Trump says ‘nicer,’ ‘kinder’ tariffs will generate federal revenue

Published on

From The Center Square

By 

President Donald Trump says the slate of tariffs he plans to announce Wednesday will be “nicer,” “kinder” and “more generous” than other countries have treated the U.S.

Trump plans to unveil reciprocal tariffs on all nations that put duties on U.S. imports Wednesday, which the president has been calling “Liberation Day” for American trade.

Trump’s latest comments on tariffs come as he aims to reshape the global economy to reduce U.S. trade deficits and generate billions in federal revenue through higher taxes on imported products.

Trump’s trade policies have upended U.S. and global markets, but the president has yet to get into specifics ahead of Wednesday’s planned announcement.

At the start of March, Trump told a joint session of Congress that he planned to put reciprocal tariffs in place starting April 2.

“Whatever they tariff us, we tariff them. Whatever they tax us, we tax them,” Trump said. “If they do non-monetary tariffs to keep us out of their market, then we do non-monetary barriers to keep them out of our market. We will take in trillions of dollars and create jobs like we have never seen before.”

On Sunday night, Trump said on Air Force One that U.S. tariffs would be “nicer,” “kinder” and “more generous” than how other countries have treated the U.S.

Last week, Trump announced a 25% tariff on imported automobiles, duties that he said would be “permanent.” The White House said it expects the auto tariffs on cars and light-duty trucks will generate up to $100 billion in federal revenue. Trump said eventually he hopes to bring in $600 billion to $1 trillion in tariff revenue in the next year or two. Trump also said the tariffs would lead to a manufacturing boom in the U.S., with auto companies building new plants, expanding existing plants and adding jobs.

Trump predicts his protectionist trade policies will create jobs, make the nation rich and help reduce both trade deficits and the federal government’s persistent deficits.

The “Liberation Day” tariffs come after months of talk since Trump took office in January. On the campaign trail, Trump frequently called “tariff” the most beautiful word in the English language.

James Dorn, senior fellow emeritus at the Cato Institute, said Trump’s rhetoric on tariffs doesn’t match the economic reality of Americans.

“Tariffs expand the scope of government, politicize economic life, increase uncertainty, and reduce individual freedom,” he wrote. “Government officials gain arbitrary power while market participants face fewer opportunities for mutually beneficial exchanges and greater uncertainty as the rules of the game change.”

Dorn said consumers would pay the price.

“Tariffs are levied on U.S. importers as goods – both final and intermediate –subject to the tariff enter the country,” he wrote. “Importers and consumers typically end up paying the tariffs, as they cut into profit margins and drive consumer prices up.”

Business groups, including the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and American Farm Bureau Federation, have urged Trump to back off tariff threats.

Trump has promised that his tariffs would shift the tax burden away from Americans and onto foreign countries, but tariffs are generally paid by the people who import the foreign products. Those importers then have a choice: absorb the loss or pass it on to consumers through higher prices. The president also promised tariffs would make America “rich as hell.”

Biden Administration Was Secretly More Involved In Ukraine Than It Let On, Investigation Reveals

Published on

 

From the Daily Caller News Foundation

By Wallace White

The U.S was far more directly involved in aiding Ukrainian forces against Russia than previously understood, a New York Times investigation revealed Monday.

American backing of Ukraine was an instrumental piece in forces of the eastern European nation wounding or killing more than 700,000 Russian soldiers during the course of the war, according to the NYT. Methods the U.S. used to aid Ukraine included giving target information while officially obfuscating their nature, dispatching American advisers close to the frontlines and sweeping oversight over its use of missile systems granted by officials.

One European intelligence official was taken aback as to how deep U.S. involvement was, telling the NYT that American officials had become “part of the kill chain.”

Ukrainian officials met in Wiesbaden in Spring 2022, the headquarters of the U.S. European Command, to discuss strategy with U.S. forces and the extent to which the U.S. would aid the Ukrainians.

During the meeting, U.S. European Command settled with Ukrainian officials that they would reportedly dispense target locations as “points of interest” to the Ukrainians, not officially calling them “targets” as they believed the language would be too “provocative.”

“If you ever get asked the question, ‘Did you pass a target to the Ukrainians?’ you can legitimately not be lying when you say, ‘No, I did not,’” a U.S. official told the NYT. Most artillery strikes were carried out with the M777 Howitzer system, in part provided by the U.S.

Due to diplomatic risks, the Biden administration wanted to share intel in the most plausibly deniable way possible, with a total restriction on sharing the whereabouts of Russian military figures and targets on Russian soil, one senior U.S. official told the NYT. The information shared would have to adhere to NATO guidelines of intel sharing to not provoke the Russian’s ire against other nations in the alliance.

“Imagine how that would be for us if we knew that the Russians helped some other country assassinate our chairman,” the official told the NYT. “Like, we’d go to war.”

European Command also had sweeping oversight of the Ukrainian use of the HIMARS missile system, the Americans retaining the ability to shut off the activation key cards required to fire the missiles, according to the NYT. HIMARS strikes regularly resulted in hundreds of Russian deaths weekly.

Advisers regularly made visits to the frontlines of the war, referred to as “subject matter experts” in their official capacity, according to the NYT. Their official names only changed back to “advisers” once Ukrainian leadership changed, which was also followed by a threefold increase in advisers.

Despite the deep cooperation, there was often tension between the U.S. and Ukraine, with Kiev often accusing the Americans of being overbearing, while the Americans questioned why sometimes Ukrainians did not heed their advice, according to the NYT.
