Say “sex dolls” and a whole lot of images can appear, from inflatable objects sold online and delivered in brown paper packages to components of sex therapy packages to pursuits that are much more deviant.
Except now that “sex dolls,” in Minnesota, means “transgender dolls with removable genitalia” so that “professionals” can use them to push the transgender ideology on children as young as four years ago.
And now it also means a complaint has been filed by the Defending Education nonprofit with the U.S. Department of Justice and the Department of Education.
The focus is on the “MyGender Dolls” creation from the University of Minnesota in that state.
The “scholars” at the university there “are launching transgender dolls with removable genitalia, marketed by MyGenderDolls as being ‘for the professionals who support trans and gender diverse children.’ The dolls are designed for children aged 4 to 10,” according to the the Washington Examiner.
“This is a slap in the face to Minnesota families and taxpayers on two levels: this was developed by faculty members at the University of Minnesota through funding provided by Governor Tim Walz’s administration, and these Frankenstein dolls are going to be provided to children in elementary schools without parental notification or consent,” charged Nicole Neily, of Defending Education.
“We hope that the Trump administration takes steps to prevent the state of Minnesota from ripping away children’s innocence in the name of ‘inclusion.’”
The complaint alleges parents within the organization have not been told about the program under the Protection of Pupil Rights Amendment.
Defending Education noted that the program appears to conflict with White House guidance on gender identity, including three executive orders (14168, 14187, and 14190).
WorldNetDaily reported when the controversy about the sex agenda arose.

While nearly half of Minnesota students are failing to meet math and reading proficiency standards, Tim Walz is prioritizing taxpayer-funded transgender dolls in schools.
Our schools should be focused on helping students read, write, and succeed. Not pushing a radical agenda on…

The “therapeutic” dolls are coming from University of Minnesota “scholars” through the Eli Coleman Institute for Sexual and Gender Health.
That group’s website claims, “We make gender fun! Our award-winning dolls and services are community-informed, research-driven, culturally-attuned, and grounded in gender-affirming clinical practice.”

Republican Mayor Celebrates African Refugees As The “New Pioneers”

A Republican mayor in Utah is catching heat for turning the state’s traditional Pioneer Day into a celebration of African refugees, dubbing them the modern-day equivalents of the Mormon settlers who founded the Beehive State.

Provo Mayor Marsha Judkins posted an Instagram message this week praising African migrants who have resettled in Utah’s fourth-largest city.

Judkins said that Utahns mark Pioneer Day to “recognize those who journeyed west in search of religious freedom and the opportunity to build a better future free from persecution.”

Judkins’s message then took a woke turn, writing: “We also recognize members of our refugee community who embody that same pioneer spirit, leaving behind familiar homes to begin new lives in a place they had never seen before.”

“We encourage you to watch and learn from the experiences of refugees who now call Provo home and the enduring contributions they make every day, from strengthening local nonprofits to serving in the United States military,” the mayor’s message added. “Their stories inspire all of us to continue fostering a welcoming community where people of every background and experience can experience the promise of Provo.”

Pioneer Day traditionally honors the Mormon pioneers led by Brigham Young who settled Utah in the 1800s. Judkins’s post ignited a firestorm online as critics accused her of twisting the state’s history to push a progressive immigration message.

Disgraceful conduct by Marsha Judkins and Provo City. Talk about erasing history. This is a total rejection and re-write of what Pioneer Day even is.

Massive wildfires sweeping through southwestern France are threatening key defense and nuclear sites near Bordeaux, forcing evacuations and emergency measures at missile factories, military research facilities and aerospace plants, according to reports.The escalating blazes come as France braces for its fourth major heat wave of the year Tuesday, with soaring temperatures and arid conditions increasing pressure on crews battling massive wildfires near Bordeaux, according to Reuters.Temperatures in the French region were forecast to reach 91 degrees Fahrenheit (33 degrees Celsius), about 13 degrees (7 degrees Celsius) above normal, according to the Reuters Climate Monitor.EUROPE’S FIRES REVEAL DEADLY MIX OF RECORD HEAT, HUMAN ERROR, ARSON AND LAND MISMANAGEMENT”The situation we are dealing with today is the most severe we have ever recorded, the toughest since the Second World War,” President Emmanuel Macron, who flew to the area, had said Sunday.French Economy Minister Roland Lescure said the fires have disrupted more than 13,000 businesses in the Gironde region, with many forced to close or evacuate.According to The Telegraph, the fires are closing in on missile and rocket factories that store explosive materials.At least seven sites holding hazardous substances are within 12 miles of the blaze.FRANCE RECORDS MORE THAN 5,700 EXCESS DEATHS DURING HISTORIC EARLY SUMMER HEAT WAVESaint-Médard-en-Jalles, to the west-northwest, is one of the evacuated towns and is home to a large factory that produces propellants for Ariane space rockets and France’s strategic missiles.A nearby plant in Sainte-Hélène also produces ammonium perchlorate, a key oxidizer used in solid rocket propellants.According to Defense News, the fires are also threatening factories that make key parts for France’s nuclear missiles, Rafale fighter jets and military missiles.ArianeGroup evacuated employees from sites in the fire zone, while France’s Alternative Energies and Atomic Energy Commission (CEA) closed its military research center in Le Barp as the wildfires first advanced toward Bordeaux.Officials said there is no risk of radioactive leakage because the facility contains no nuclear materials, the outlet reported.EUROPE’S FIRES REVEAL DEADLY MIX OF RECORD HEAT, HUMAN ERROR, ARSON AND LAND MISMANAGEMENTFrench Defense Minister Sébastien Lecornu said July 24 that protective measures had been deployed around the sites “given the nature of the products stored there,” Le Monde said.Meanwhile, France’s Defense Ministry said 1,500 military personnel have been deployed since Friday to support firefighting operations and help secure strategic industrial sites.So far, the fires have scorched more than 104,000 acres (42,000 hectares) in the Gironde region, making them among France’s largest wildfires on record.Authorities said about 240 homes have been destroyed, while nearly 4,000 holidaymakers have been evacuated from campsites, holiday villages and tourist resorts in Lacanau, about 35 miles west of Bordeaux.As France and Spain battle one of Europe’s worst wildfire seasons in decades, roughly 360,000 people have been forced to evacuate in recent days.

FIRST ON FOX — Attorneys for President Donald Trump filed a petition Tuesday to toss the more than $83.3 million judgment in the defamation case brought by former magazine columnist E. Jean Carroll.”This is the first case in our Nation’s history in which a court has imposed damages liability on a President for his conduct in office,” the filing states. “Yet, in upholding the exorbitant $83.3 million defamation judgment here, the Second Circuit never even decided whether Presidential immunity applies to President Trump’s allegedly defamatory statements — statements made from the White House, in response to press questions, denying allegations of personal misconduct directly questioning his fitness for office.””Indeed, the Second Circuit refused to apply Presidential immunity even after this Court recognized that ‘most of a President’s public communications are likely to fall comfortably within’ that protection,” the filing continued, citing the Supreme Court’s landmark ruling on presidential immunity in 2024.TRUMP SAYS HE WILL ‘CONTINUE THE FIGHT’ AFTER SUPREME COURT DECLINES TO REVIEW CARROLL ABUSE VERDICTThe petition went on to argue, “If left standing, the decision below will cause significant damage, not only to this President and future Presidents, but also to ‘the Nation that the Presidency was designed to serve.'”As this Court has recognized, it ‘would seriously cripple the proper and effective administration of’ government if Presidents feared that their official acts could result in damages liability … That is why immunity for official Presidential acts is necessary.”Carroll’s attorney did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment.E. JEAN CARROLL GLEEFULLY INVITES MADDOW ON SHOPPING SPREE WITH TRUMP’S $83 MILLION: ‘PENTHOUSE? IT’S YOURS!’The filing comes after a federal appeals court rejected Trump’s request to rehear his appeal in April.Carroll, who claimed Trump sexually assaulted her at a department store in the 1990s, sued Trump for defamation for comments he made in 2019, vigorously denying her rape allegations.TRUMP’S $15B LAWSUIT AGAINST THE NEW YORK TIMES CARRIES ON AS JUDGE GIVES HIS ATTORNEYS CHANCE TO AMEND FILINGA federal jury in New York City decided in 2023 that Trump was not liable for rape but was liable for sexual abuse and defamation. The former president was ordered to pay $5 million in that trial.In January 2024, a federal jury decided that Trump must pay Carroll $18.3 million in compensatory damages, and $65 million in punitive damages. A judge ordered Trump to pay the $83.3 million that March.

A University of South Florida (USF) graduate student is developing a high-tech new way to stay safe in style.Addison Bounds, a 22-year-old former USF beach volleyball player, co-founded Elora Armor, a brand that creates jewelry with a sensor designed to warn its wearer when dangerous substances have been slipped into their drinks.The company plans to offer bracelets, pendants, keychains and potentially phone cases that can alert if a drink has been drugged, Bounds told Fox 13 Tampa Bay.COULD A PAINT-ON ELECTRONIC TATTOO SPOT HEART ATTACKS?Bounds co-founded the brand with Kira Robichaud, a friend with a science background who is helping lead a small team of women developing the technology.The jewelry is designed to detect benzodiazepines, a common drug linked to drink spiking. After some of the liquid is dropped onto the electromagnetic sensor, an alert is sent through an app, revealing whether the drink has been tampered with.”You just drop – whatever’s on your finger is plenty – onto the surface of the product,” Bounds said.”You’ll receive a notification to your phone telling you if that drink is safe to consume or not, and if your drink has been spiked, your live location is immediately sent to your safety network that you’ve connected to the app.”Bounds shared that a friend of hers was drugged in high school and later found unconscious in a closet, where she had been assaulted.CLICK HERE FOR MORE HEALTH STORIES”It’s like a really rude awakening … there are people who really intend to do harm, and there isn’t really anyone looking out for us except for ourselves,” she said.Bounds said she hopes to launch the bracelets in January 2028, ahead of the L.A. Olympics, with the goal to “stop drink spiking from happening in the first place.”Statistics on drink spiking in America remain limited, as it’s difficult to measure and a national tracking system does not exist.CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR OUR HEALTH NEWSLETTERHowever, a 2017 study of more than 6,000 college students at three universities found that 7.8% reported having been drugged without their knowledge or consent. The group included about 10% of the female students and 4% of the males.Common drink-spiking drugs are often hard to detect and their effect can worsen when mixed with alcohol, according to the Center for Violence Prevention and Self Defense Training. Drink spiking happens most commonly in busy social settings, making it more difficult to detect.CVPSD warned to watch out for cues and symptoms that a drink may have been spiked and consumed. Those include rapid or unexpected intoxication, sudden behavioral changes, memory lapses, hallucinations, paranoia, and an unusual appearance or taste of a drink.Physical symptoms can also include loss of balance, blurred vision, slurred speech, nausea, vomiting and trouble breathing.TEST YOURSELF WITH OUR LATEST LIFESTYLE QUIZSome basic strategies for preventing drink spiking include never leaving your drink unattended, only accepting drinks from trusted people, using drink covers, avoiding communal containers, sticking with friends and being aware of your surroundings, experts say.

San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan admitted he was at fault for the car crash he was involved in on July 14, which led to numerous injuries that have him limited at training camp.Shanahan called beat reporters into his office on Monday to clarify that he was the one who caused the accident. The California Highway Patrol database had a “clerical error” attributing the accident to the woman involved in the two-car crash, per ESPN’s Nick Wagoner.”He took eyes off the road briefly to find his phone which fell between seats and when he looked up he had gone over the line and into an SUV,” Wagoner wrote on X.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COMShanahan was in violation of holding and operating a cell phone while driving, but he wasn’t cited for it following the crash.Reporters who spoke with Shanahan also mentioned him saying he didn’t lose consciousness or have any amnesia after the accident. He also noted he was traveling 20 mph at the time of the crash.ESPN’s initial report of the crash said the woman didn’t suffer any injuries, but Shanahan sustained broken ribs, a broken nose and broken hand, while also suffering a severe concussion. Additionally, he needed 40 stitches to close cuts on his face.KYLE SHANAHAN ‘THIS CLOSE’ TO LOSING HIS RIGHT EYE IN HORRIBLE CAR CRASH, NFL ANALYST REVEALSDuring a Monday taping of “PFT Live,” Chris Simms, a close friend of Shanahan, revealed the 49ers coach nearly lost his right eye after viewing pictures sent to him by Shanahan’s wife after the crash.”When you first see it, and it’s fresh, and some of the cuts are still wide open, I mean, it’s jarring,” Simms explained. “It’s jarring.”He was this close to maybe losing his right eye.”Simms pointed to his forehead when he said, “The scar is so big right here.” He also said that Shanahan was feeling emotional about the situation when they were able to connect.”He was emotional about it because he realized how close it was to being just a complete, you know, utter disaster,” Simms said. “Like, really, it was a disaster anyways. But, when you’re a part of that accident, like I said, he could have lost his right eye. It could have been a lot worse. You know, he’s very concerned about the woman he got in the accident with and how she is and handling that situation. So there’s just a lot there. And I think it was a lot for him to process.”GM John Lynch said that, “Kyle basically is going to be like in the protocol,” in reference to his concussion. Simms said it is giving him “some issues” he must deal with through the healing process.While Shanahan serves his team on a limited basis, Chris Foerster, the 49ers’ assistant head coach, is acting in his place.The 49ers open the season against the Los Angeles Rams on Sept. 10 in the first-ever game played in Australia.Follow Fox News Digital’s sports coverage on X and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.

A great white shark was caught on video launching itself out of the water just yards behind a boogie boarder at Newport Beach — creating a shocking scene at the popular Southern California destination.The family behind the camera had no idea what they had captured until they reviewed the footage hours later.”We were praying on the beach, and we were like, ‘Hopefully a miracle happens. That’d be super-cool [if] a miracle happens,'” Soaren Stevenson, a California-based college ministry leader who filmed the video, told Fox News Digital in an interview Tuesday.10-FOOT GREAT WHITE SHARK SPOTTED SWIMMING DANGEROUSLY CLOSE TO YOUNG PEOPLEAs the family replayed the footage, Stevenson said he wasn’t sure what he was seeing. Then he zoomed in. “I was like, ‘That’s not even a dolphin — that’s a shark.'”No one else on the beach appeared to notice the shark, Stevenson said.”He definitely didn’t know how close it was,” Stevenson said of his brother-in-law, who was boogie boarding just ahead of the breaching shark. Although he grew up in Hawaii and has encountered sharks before, the brother-in-law viewed the whole incident as “a once-in-a-lifetime-type experience,” Stevenson said.CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR OUR LIFESTYLE NEWSLETTERThe encounter left Stevenson with a new appreciation for animals that share the ocean with surfers and swimmers.”It’s kind of surreal to think that the shark is in the same waters as my [brother-in-law], and he didn’t even know it,” Stevenson said.”It just makes me realize that when you go out there to surf, you can come way closer to such a beast than you ever think you [would].”Despite the close encounter, Stevenson said he doesn’t plan to stay out of the water.CLICK HERE FOR MORE LIFESTYLE STORIES”I don’t think they want to eat us,” he said — adding that beachgoers should still remain alert and stay safe.The breaching happened just as Shark Week 2026 kicked off, which Stevenson called “a funny little coincidence.”While the footage appears alarming, shark incidents involving people remain rare.Fewer than 250 documented shark incidents involving all shark species have occurred in the state since 1950, according to the California Department of Fish and Wildlife.TEST YOURSELF WITH OUR LATEST LIFESTYLE QUIZThe department also notes that shark incidents have not increased proportionally despite growing beach attendance and the rising popularity of activities such as surfing, swimming and scuba diving.Fox News Digital recently reported that a Georgia man in his early 20s was hospitalized after suffering a shark bite while helping his pregnant fiancée get to safety at a Florida beach.Volusia County Beach Safety officials said the man was wading in waist-deep water near the Dunlawton Beach Approach in Daytona Beach Shores when a shark estimated to be about 4 feet long bit his left foot and ankle.He was treated at the scene before being transported to a nearby hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

RFK Jr. Says HHS Found Fauci Diaries Across 11 Different Servers

Authored by Zachary Stieber via The Epoch Times,

Health officials located the diaries of Dr. Anthony Fauci across nearly a dozen different servers, Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said on July 27.

“It took us about eight months to dig these out of 11 separate servers, where they had been sequestered and secreted,” Kennedy said during an appearance on Fox News.

After obtaining the private entries of Fauci, who was the head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) from 1984 to 2022, officials with the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) handed over the documents to Sens. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) and Ron Johnson (R-Wis.). The senators have been investigating the origins of COVID-19 and the response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Paul, the chairman of the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs, subsequently released diary entries from December 2019 through December 2022, combined into one document.

“I think the starkest impression that you get from reading these diaries is this massive dichotomy between what he was saying privately and what he was simultaneously saying publicly,” Kennedy, whose HHS oversees NIH, said on Fox.

Fauci’s institute had provided funding to a Wuhan laboratory to run experiments on coronaviruses, at least one of which added a feature to a virus. A 2018 research proposal outlined work that would insert a feature called a furin cleavage site into a coronavirus, which may have been done at the Wuhan lab.

In a diary entry, Fauci recounted how, during a Feb. 1, 2020, call, 9 of the 11 scientists felt that deliberate insertion of the furin cleavage site into the COVID-19 virus was possible, noting past work done at the Wuhan lab.

Fauci, though, repeatedly promoted the theory in public that the virus, known as SARS-CoV-2, came from nature.

“There was a study recently that we can make available to you, where a group of highly qualified evolutionary virologists looked at the sequences there and the sequences in bats as they evolve,” Fauci told a White House briefing in April 2020. “And the mutations that it took to get to the point where it is now is totally consistent with a jump of a species from an animal to a human.”

That paper, “The Proximal Origin of SARS-CoV-2,” said that “SARS-CoV-2 is not a laboratory construct or a purposefully manipulated virus” and that no lab-based scenario was plausible.

Fauci was involved with crafting the paper, emails released by Paul show, and the paper’s authors doubted their conclusions both before and after the study’s publication, according to messages made public by Paul and others.

The following month, in May 2020, Fauci told National Geographic that there was no scientific evidence that COVID-19 was made in any lab in China.

Fauci also said in his diary that he had convinced the mayor of New York City to close schools.

“I had a similar call with Ann O’Leary, the [chief of staff] of Gov. Gavin Newsom of California,” Fauci wrote. “Ann said that based on my TV appearances today and yesterday, the Governor has decided to close the schools in California as well as the bars and restaurants.”

Fauci said in a 2022 interview that he had “nothing to do” with schools being closed.

Fauci declined to testify to Paul’s committee on a voluntary basis, prompting the senator in June to subpoena Fauci. The doctor is scheduled to testify before the committee on Wednesday.

Fauci, who has not responded to requests for comment, is covered against many possible charges by a preemptive pardon provided by former President Joe Biden.

Greenlanders got a front row view of a terrifying spectacle of nature.
Viral footage shows a massive iceberg collapsing (or capsizing) off the coast of the Arctic Island, sending clouds of mist up hundreds of feet.
Cascading waves also erupted from beneath it and battered the shore.
Daily Mail reported:
“The iceberg, which was as long as at least a dozen houses, capsized near to the UNESCO-listed Ilulissat Icefjord, on the west coast of Greenland.
Sped-up footage showed the huge ice mass tipping over and towering over the nearby settlement. Despite sending tsunami-like waves when it flipped, no injuries were reported.”

“Ilulissat Icefjord is one of the few areas where the Greenlandic ice cap reaches the sea and is home to Sermeq Kujalleq, one of the fastest and most active glaciers in the world.
It sheds over 46 cubic kilometres of ice every year – some believed to be as old as 250,000 years – as icebergs and is the most of any glacier outside of Antarctica.”

ICEBERG COLLAPSE TRIGGERS HEAVY WAVE

WION reported:
“A massive iceberg did a stunning and scary flip off the coast of Ilulissat, Greenland. […] A video shows the icy body flipping through the sea, creating a rough and scary scene. It does this with such force that the rough underside of the iceberg was also visible as waves hit through.
A video shows houses on in the foreground as the massive icy body thrashes in the sea. No injuries were reported. Netizens reacted with shock and awe to the video of the flipping iceberg.
Some even thought it was an AI-generated video and couldn’t be real. However, the video has apparently been shot by a local resident and is real. Other users pointed out that such an event can trigger a local tsunami. “Does this create a huge wave that grows as it gets to the coast?” one asked.
‘I didn’t know they could do that! I always thought they were too bottom heavy to turn!’ one said. A major chunk of icebergs is typically under the surface of the sea. So for it to be flipping this way means it has either broken from the middle, or melted away. ‘Wow! Very lucky that speeding iceberg in the ocean didn’t take someone out’.”
