Tulsi Gabbard Leaves Democratic Party Over ‘Anti-White’ Racism, Woke Activism
By Gillian Richards / @gn_richards/ The Daily Signal October 11, 2022
Former Hawaii Representative Tulsi Gabbard announced that she is leaving the Democratic Party over its authoritarianism and anti-white racism in a Tuesday video.
“I can no longer remain in today’s Democratic Party that is now under the complete control of an elitist cabal of warmongers driven by cowardly wokeness, who divide us by racializing every issue and stoking anti-white racism, who actively work to undermine our God-given freedoms that are enshrined in our Constitution,” says Gabbard in the first episode of her new YouTube channel, the Tulsi Gabbard Show.
“This party is led by warmongers who are firmly in the grips of the military industrial complex,” Gabbard says. She charges that Democrats have led us to the brink of nuclear war, which is “the most urgent existential threat we face.”
Gabbard, who ran for president as a Democrat in 2020, notes, “I didn’t win that election, so I don’t have the power to do what’s necessary to prevent it.”
“I’m calling on every one of you to stand up to these cowardly politicians,” she declares, adding that this may be Americans’ last chance to do so.
Today’s Democratic Party has been “weaponizing the security state and federal law enforcement for their own partisan, political ends,” Gabbard continues. In doing so, Democrats have undermined democracy and the rule of law.
She slammed them for advocating de-funding of the police and for enacting laws that prioritize criminals over ordinary Americans. “Is it any surprise that crime and murder rates are rapidly increasing?” she remarks.
Gabbard comments on the Department of Justice’s recent arrest of 11 pro-life activists for blocking an abortion clinic entrance. “They didn’t use physical force, they weren’t dangerous,” she says. But seven of these activists are facing 11 years in prison and fines up to $250,000 if they are convicted, she notes.
“The Biden [Department of Justice] and Department of Homeland Security are using their newly formed domestic terror unit to target parents who are vocally standing in opposition to radical curriculums and explicit sexual content being taught to their kids in schools,” she adds.
Gabbard laments that President Biden campaigned on unity in the 2020 presidential elections, yet he recently gave a speech claiming his political opponents are domestic terrorists and extremists. “That’s half the country,” says Gabbard. She also notes that the Biden administration did nothing when protestors gathered outside the homes of Supreme Court justices following the leak of the Supreme Court’s decision in Dobbs v. Jackson. While these protests were in clear violation of federal law, it’s non-violent, pro-life activists who have been targeted by Biden’s Department of Justice, she argues.
“When the party in power does not believe in the rule of law, but they’re responsible for writing and enforcing laws, our democracy is doomed.”
Nor do Democratic Party leaders believe in freedom of speech, religion, and the right to bear arms, Gabbard continues. “They try to censor speech they don’t like, labeling it as misinformation and hate speech.”
Democrats are “working hand-in-glove with corporate, for-profit media and Big Tech to smear and silence political opponents and anyone who dares to challenge their authority,” she says.
Gabbard notes the Biden administration’s recent attempt to create a “ministry of truth,” which would control information Americans read and share online. Democrats’ objective is to “determine what is misinformation, what is true and what is not,” says Gabbard. “Their ideology is one of hate and divisiveness, rather than respect and love.”
Today’s Democrats are also hostile to people of faith, she adds. During the 2020 Democratic National Convention, Democrats chose to omit “under God” from the pledge of allegiance. “Freedom of religion does not mean freedom from religion.”
Americans should be free to practice religion without fear of reprisal or punishment, Gabbard argues. “Any political party trying to erase presence of God in every facet of public life … cannot be trusted to protect our inalienable, God-given rights enshrined in the Constitution, and therefore should not be in power.”
Moreover, “the Democratic Party’s hatred of the Second Amendment and their increasing authoritarian instincts poses a serious threat to our freedoms.”
She cites comments from Rep. Beto O’Rourke, D-Texas, who said, “hell yes, we’ll take your AR-15 and your AK-47” in a 2020 presidential debate as one example of Democrats’ hatred of the right to bear arms.
Today’s Democrats are “Big Brother undermining our civil liberties,” Gabbard argues. “Every time they’ve had the opportunity, they choose to side with the security state instead of siding with our liberty, our freedom.” She notes Democrats’ opposition to her bill in Congress which would have repealed the Patriot Act.
According to Gabbard, Democrats have betrayed Dr. Martin Luther King’s dream that we are judged by the content of our character rather than the color of our skin. Democrats have used identity politics to divide Americans and propagate “anti-white” racism, she contends. “They have become the racists they claim to hate.”
Gabbard also notes the Democratic party’s erasure of women by rejecting biological reality and demanding that we replace words like “mother” with “birthing person.”
America is putting women at risk “just to please biological men who claim to be women at any given moment,” she warns.
Democrats are taking away opportunities from women in sports by allowing biological males to compete against them, she adds. “Behind the scenes … the Biden administration is trying to change Title IX by a back door rule that would remove women and biological sex from the Title IX statute.”
“What they’re really trying to do is force us to comply,” she says. “They’re trying to regulate our speech and thought with the threat of punishment. … By denying the biological differences of men and women, they’re erasing women.”
In doing so, Democrats are erasing objective truth. That’s really the issue here, she argues: “When one denies existence of objective truth, then there are no boundaries, no limits in society. Truth becomes whatever those in power want it to be.”

Gender Dysphoria Diagnoses for Children Soared 70% in 2021
By Laurel Duggan / @laureldugg / The Daily Signal October 08, 2022
Childhood gender dysphoria diagnoses soared 70% from 2020 to 2021, according to medical records of 330 million Americans analyzed by Komodo Health Inc, Reuters reported Thursday.
The findings reveal a massive uptick in gender dysphoria diagnoses for children aged 6 to 17, with at least 121,882 children receiving that diagnosis in the five years leading up to 2021, according to Reuters. While most children who are diagnosed with the disorder do not medically transition, the rate of children on puberty blockers more than doubled from 2017 to 2021 to just over 5,000.

‘I Perform for an Audience of One, and That Is God’: Kanye West Speaks Out in Pro-Life Interview
By Ben Johnson / The Daily Signal October 07, 2022
Kanye West may not be the first name that comes to mind when people think of the 2024 presidential race, but the rapper (who now goes by Ye) proudly declared, “I’m pro-life,” and that he lives his life to serve God alone before making a fleeting reference to a possible presidential campaign in two years’ time.
West, who tied the record for the most Grammys won by a hip-hop artist at 24, discussed his faith-informed political views for the full hour on Thursday’s episode of “Tucker Carlson Tonight.” Carlson asked why West designed the distinctive lanyard at the Paris Fashion Week to bear the image of an unborn child’s ultrasound.
“It just represents life. I’m pro-life,” West told Tucker Carlson unapologetically. When asked how the socially liberal fashion world responded to an image declaring the personhood of the unborn, West replied, “I don’t care about people’s response. I care about the fact that there’s more black babies being aborted than born in New York City at this point: 50% of black death in America is abortion.”
West, who openly wept when he admitted he considered aborting his own child, took aim at Planned Parenthood and its founder.
Margaret Sanger, a eugenics advocate who launched “The Negro Project” to reduce the black population, recalled her speech to a meeting of “the women’s branch of the Ku Klux Klan” in Silver Lake, New Jersey, in 1926 in her autobiography. Sanger also referred to certain people as “human weeds” and believed anyone who wanted to reproduce should have to apply for a government license.
Branches of the NAACP have criticized Planned Parenthood, which received $633.4 million in taxpayer funds during its 2020-2021 fiscal year, of trying to limit the black population.
“So, I don’t care about people’s responses,” West said. “I perform for an audience of one, and that is God.”
“I’m starting to see why they want to make you be quiet,” replied Carlson, the top-rated personality in cable news.
West said he first felt the need to speak out when Donald Trump ran for president in 2016, and everyone in his life—including his manager and his in-laws at the time, the Kardashians—warned him that endorsing the Republican presidential candidate would be career suicide.
“People with power try to make other people feel like they don’t have any. My power is through God,” he said, adding that when anyone praises his word, he gives all glory to God.
“God builds warriors in a different way,” he said, referring to his childhood in Atlanta and the south side of Chicago. “He made me for such a time like this.” He then pivoted between quoting the Book of Esther and referring to the history of the early kingdom of Israel:
It’s like with David: He tended to the sheep, but while he was out there, he had to fight all kinds of animals. So, when it was time for Goliath to come, he thought because [David] was a sheepherder, that he didn’t have the skill set to take down Goliath.
West—who has an estimated net worth of $2.1 billion—referred to his position, authority, and “heart” to stand up for Christian principles. “But the No. 1 thing is, we have God on our side,” West said to a responsive Carlson, who grew up Episcopalian. “Even if you don’t believe in God, God believes in you.”
The hip-hop legend’s defense of black life also led him to wear a sweatshirt that declared “White Lives Matter” earlier this week, alongside Candace Owens. He said he fashioned the statement based on “a gut instinct and a connection with God,” and his wholehearted conviction that every life is precious, because it reflects the image and likeness of God.
With a son’s evident pride, he revealed that his father, Ray—a former Black Panther and photographer with The Atlanta Journal-Constitution—commended his son for wearing the slogan-emblazoned shirts.
His father’s intelligence and proper use of English caused others to criticize him as not being authentically black, West said. “The same people who have stripped us of our identity and labeled us as a color have told us what it means to be black, and the vernacular we’re supposed to have.”
His father texted him that wearing the shirt represented “just a black man stating the obvious.” Few Hollywood stars would dare to say something so obvious because, West said, industry minders tell them “what to be afraid of”—namely, violating Tinsel Town’s socially liberal orthodoxy. The industry, which operates largely through currying favor, does not understand how to react “if you have a person that isn’t afraid of them—like a Russell Brand or a Candace Owens.”
Or a Kanye West, who announced in the fall of 2019 that he recently accepted Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior. At the time, Kim Kardashian got baptized with their children at the ancient Etchmiadzin Cathedral, the most important site of the Armenian Apostolic Church. He spoke at Joel Osteen’s Lakewood Church in the Houston area and sang gospel music to prisoners.
His ninth CD, “Jesus is King,” debuted at No. 1 on the charts and won the Grammy for Best Contemporary Christian Music Album. His second gospel project, “Donda,” launched at the top spot on Billboard’s Top Christian and Top Gospel albums last Sept. 11.
West briefly mentioned the possibility of throwing his hat into the 2024 presidential election, as well. “I want to talk about my potential run for 2024,” he said, also referring to such potential candidates as former President Donald Trump and “the beloved” Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, a Republican. “For politicians, all black people are worth is an approval rating. The Democrats feel like they don’t owe us anything,” as do Republicans. Yet about 9 out of 10 black voters supported Joe Biden in 2020 and regularly support the Democrats.
West announced his presidential bid on July 4, 2020, but curtailed his campaign in less than two weeks. But, speaking in a relaxed manner in his studio with Carlson, he seemed open to using his vast influence to direct the government to reflect Christian principles.
“You know, God is alive,” West said.

Globalist Infiltration is not a Conspiracy Theory
By Maxime Bernier People's Party of Canada October 7, 2022
A week ago, it was revealed that the giant consulting firm McKinsey, which also has as clients the WHO, Pfizer, and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, secretly managed the Quebec government’s response to covid.
A detailed investigation by a Radio-Canada journalist shows that the company was paid $35,000 a day to tell the government of François Legault how to manage its authoritarian covid measures.
You can read a translated version of the article here.
Remember that the Quebec government had one of the harshest and least effective responses to covid in the world, including a curfew after 8:00pm and a crazy proposal to tax the unvaxxed.
Quebec is not the only place where this happened. McKinsey also helped manage the government’s response to the pandemic in Ontario, and in many US states and other countries, including in France where it became a major controversy during last spring’s presidential elections.
This giant firm is incredibly well-connected. Even before covid, there were reports about how it infiltrated the world of global public health.
And you won’t believe this: They’re friends with Klaus Schwab! They even have a page devoted to their “strategic partnership” with the World Economic Forum.
But the connections don’t stop there. Canadian Dominic Barton was McKinsey’s global boss for a decade. When Justin Trudeau was elected, he became his special economic advisor. And then, Trudeau named him ambassador to... China.
Barton has also been promoting mass immigration for years and is the one who convinced the Liberals to accept half a million immigrants per year in Canada.
McKinsey has been involved in many criminal scandals. Just today, there was an article in the Globe and Mail about how “Criminal charges against McKinsey cast spotlight on its business during former Canadian ambassador Dominic Barton’s tenure.”
There is a corruption scandal in South Africa. McKinsey was also accused of having helped U.S. drugmaker Purdue bolster sales of OxyContin, the highly addictive painkiller that contributed to tens of thousands of deaths in Canada and the United States. It recently agreed to pay US$573-million to settle investigations over its consulting work related to sales of opioids.
McKinsey / Barton / big pharma / OxyContin / vaccines / authoritarian covid measures / Trudeau / China / WEF / Big Reset…
Nothing to see here, move along!
Globalist infiltration is not a conspiracy theory. It’s a huge business involving multinational firms, governments, and organizations like the World Economic Forum and the World Health Organization.
And it explains at least in part why the past three years have been hell.
The People’s Party will continue to fight it!

Gates Foundation gives $200 million to help Establish Global Digital ID System of Surveillance

‘Guns Pointed at Me’: FBI Arrests Father of 11 in Front of His Children for Pro-Life Work
By Mary Margaret Olohan / @MaryMargOlohan / The Daily Signal October 07, 2022
The Federal Bureau of Investigation this week arrested a pro-life father of 11 children, charging him with “conspiracy against rights secured by the FACE Act, and committing FACE Act violations.”
Paul Vaughn of Centerville, Tennessee, told The Daily Signal in a Friday phone interview that FBI came to the door of his home, “guns pointed at the door, banging on the house, yelling and screaming, ‘Open up. FBI,’ that kind of thing. When I opened the door and saw the guns pointed at me, I asked them what they wanted, who they were looking for, and they said they wanted me.”
“I had kids in the yard walking out to get in the car to go to school, I was about to take them to school, and other kids in the house,” he continued. “So seeing that the easiest path to de-escalation was me in handcuffs, I stepped outside and put an end to the ranting and the banging and the yelling.”
After the FBI put him in handcuffs and in the car, he said, his wife came outside. She had been in the back of the house with their 18-month-old baby.
Video provided to The Daily Signal by Vaughn, taken by his wife, shows FBI agents outside the family’s home. Vaughn’s wife follows them, videotaping their conversation.
“I wanna know why you were banging on my door with a gun,” she says. “Are you not going to tell me anything?”
“No, we are not,” one agent replies, while another adds, “I tried.”
“No, you didn’t!” she shouts back. “You did not try.”
The FBI did not immediately respond to requests for comment for this story.
Amid accusations that it is targeting pro-lifers to silence and intimidate, the Justice Department announced on Wednesday that it had charged 11 more pro-life activists with violations of the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act for blocking the entrance of an abortion clinic in 2021.
The 11 activists, including Vaughn, were charged with FACE Act violations stemming from their 2021 “blockade” of an abortion clinic in Mount Juliet, Tennessee. This blockade was peaceful, pro-life activist AJ Hurley told The Daily Signal on Wednesday evening.
The news came amid national outcry over the dramatic arrest of Mark Houck, a Catholic father and pro-life activist who was reportedly dramatically arrested by armed FBI agents in front of his family for allegedly pushing a pro-abortion activist who allegedly harassed his son.
Several of the activists were arrested on the day of the blockade, after reportedly successfully preventing abortions from taking place at the clinic for most of the day, but police reportedly released these activists later in the day after they posted bail for misdemeanor charges, the pro-life news outlet Live Action reported. Vaughn told The Daily Signal on Friday that he was not arrested on the day of the blockade.
“On March 4, 2021, Coleman Boyd and Chester Gallager advertised the blockade of the Carafem Health Center Clinic, in Mount Juliet, Tennessee, which was planned for the following day,” the Justice Department release on the incident said. “In his social media post, Gallagher referred to the blockade as a ‘rescue.’ Boyd also began a Facebook livestream broadcast of the clinic blockade at 7:45 a.m. on March 5, 2021.”
The release continued: “This livestream broadcast was titled, in part, ‘Mt. Juliet, TN Rescue March 5, 2021,’ and livestreamed the blockade event as his coconspirators and others blocked the clinic’s entry doors and prevented a patient and an employee from entering. The livestream also broadcast members of the group attempting to engage a patient and her companion as Boyd told his livestream audience that the patient was a ‘mom coming to kill her baby.’”
On March 5, 2021, according to the release, the pro-life activists, “aided and abetted by one another, used force and physical obstruction to injure, intimidate, and interfere with employees of the clinic and a patient who was seeking reproductive health services.”
If the pro-life activists are convicted, those charged with conspiracy could spend 11 years in prison and fines of up to $250,000, while the others face up to a year in prison and fines of up to $10,000.
“It’s nothing more than suppressing free speech,” Vaughn told The Daily Signal. “It’s the same thing going on nationwide. If you’re right-of-center, conservative American-loving patriot, the Department of Justice is looking to silence that kind of thought.”
Vaughn shared that he is the father of 11 children. His oldest is 27, he said, and his youngest is 18 months. Four of his children are married, and seven of them still live at his home.
Asked if he found it odd that Houck also is the leader of a large family, Vaughn replied, “I think you just typically see that, Mary, in our faith and in our practices. It is not uncommon for pro-life people to have large families because the very concept of having children is something that we believe is a gift from God and something to be valued and sought after.”
“Is it against the odds that two large families would be attacked in two weeks? Versus smaller families that are active in pro-life work?” he asked.
“What I told the agents that arrested me on the ride into town since we had a nice hour of fellowship, is that it’s a beautiful tactic,” he added. “If you want to suppress free speech and you want to strike fear and intimidation into opposition and you weaponize justice to go after someone, to suppress, if you can get a large family, you get all the children.”
“And all the children have this memory growing up of the big, bad agents banging on the door and taking away dad. And they have an innate sense of fear now that they have to overcome in their life to oppose anything that is put upon them.”

Yes, They Want to Break Up the Family
By Lee Duigon NewsWithViews.com October 6th, 2022
It was always just a cliché to say the Left wanted to do away with the family. But it’s not a cliché anymore.
The whole ruling class of the Western world has gone absolutely hooting, barking mad for “gender”—that is, the notion that we ought to be able to choose our gender and change it if we want to. We have a presidential administration that threatens school districts with cutting off financial aid unless the schools go full-throttle for Transgender.
How bad is it? Let’s take a look at current events in Virginia.
Virginia has a new state government that’s trying to rein in the craziness. The pro-trans mob, who’ve had things all their own way in recent years, naturally resist these measures. A group has emerged that devotes itself to breaking up families if the parents don’t want their children diving head-first into aberrant sexual behavior. It’s called “the Pride Liberation Project,” and it encourages and “helps” children and teens break away from their families: they’ll “re-home” kids who are discontented with their “unsupportive” parents, promising them “a couple hundred dollars,” a place to stay, and, as soon as possible, a new home with “queer-friendly guardians.”
The “couple hundred dollars” reportedly comes from a Democrat fund-raising group called ActBlue. There is a Pride Liberation Project website that invites readers to “Donate via ActBlue”. Dirty hands all around. So far they’ve raised $381. Doesn’t look like the fish are biting much, does it?
Meanwhile, last week the “Pride Liberation” cabal whipped up a walkout of students—12,000 students, they claim—protesting Virginia’s new “trans” policies.
Yeah, they want to help kids run away from home if they “hate their parents.” Has there ever been a single child, in all of human history, who never “hated” his parents? “What! You won’t buy me a new smart phone? I hate you for that!” Kids are like that. “No, you can’t go to that concert.” “I hate you!” We’ve all been there.
But helping teens run away from home because their parents won’t let them lop of healthy body parts and take powerful drugs to “change their gender”? It’s difficult to imagine what they could do that’d be more irresponsible and wicked than that.
To say nothing of the very real risk that more than a few of these kids will wind up in the clutches of sex-traffickers.
Oops—I almost forgot this caveat. Those queer-friendly guardians: “Please note that this adult will likely be white.” Gasp. “Didn’t you just teach us that white people are evil, they’re all racists?” Yeah, well, at least they’ll be queer-friendly. A comforting thought when they ship you off to China.
And if all else fails, says the Project, disgruntled teens can always “invoke suicide” to get what they want. I’m sure they’ll come up with something worse than this eventually, but I can’t imagine what that would be. It’d be nice not to find out.
I went to public school in the 1950s and Sixties. I never met even one transgendered student. I worked in several public schools throughout the 1990s. Never met a tranny.
Now it’s all over the place. Is that what they mean by “progressive”?
Once the “transition” to another gender is complete, that person will be sterile. If enough of them go through with it, there will be no next generation.
But that’s what globalists want, isn’t it?
It’s certainly what Satan wants. The whole transgender movement is Satanic to its core.
