FBI’s 4-Acre Geofence Dragnet at the US Capitol on Jan. 6 Violated Fourth Amendment, Defense Attorneys Contend

December 9, 2022 Ogghy Filed Under: INVESTIGATIONS, Judicial Watch

From The Epoch Times:

Use of dragnet warrants will likely have at least one major side effect: the chilling of First Amendment-protected speech, according to Tom Fitton, president of Judicial Watch.

“This is a huge area of land around the Capitol that is typically accessible to the public,” Fitton told The Epoch Times, “as many of those thousands were there in unknowing violation of the rules, exercising their First Amendment rights.”

Fitton said the investigations seem to go beyond people suspected of violence or other criminal activity at the Capitol.

“The group of individuals I think they’d be interested in are those who entered the building or engaged in violence,” Fitton said. “And how does this warrant get them to that spot? Well, you know what it does, it gets them to be at the spot of, ‘let’s scare folks from participating in other First Amendment-protected activities in the future.’”

Secret Service won’t say why they changed their position on Hunter Biden gun investigation records

December 1, 2022 Ogghy Filed Under: INVESTIGATIONS, Judicial Watch

From Fox News:

The Secret Service will not say why they changed their position regarding a government watchdog’s records request into Hunter Biden’s gun investigation records.

Government watchdog Judicial Watch filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request in April 2021 regarding the gun reportedly owned by Biden and disposed of in a dumpster in 2018.

The Secret Service initially told Judicial Watch that they had located records related to their inquiry, but a year later in October, after a September FOIA lawsuit by the government watchdog organization, the presidential protection agency changed its tune.

Ordering Sex-Change Surgery for Trans Cop, Obama Judge Equals it to Mastectomies for Cancer

June 6, 2022 Ogghy Filed Under: INVESTIGATIONS, Judicial Watch

Georgia taxpayers will fund the costly “gender-affirming” surgery of a law enforcement officer because an Obama-appointed federal judge ruled that a county in the state’s central region violated the Civil Rights Act when its insurance company denied the operation. The chief judge of the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Georgie, Marc Treadwell, writes in his opinion that the exclusion for the surgery, which is complicated and can cost tens of thousands of dollars, “plainly discriminates because of transgender status.” Enacted in 1964, the Civil Rights Act prohibits employment discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, and national origin.

In a 33-page ruling issued last week Treadwell compares the county’s health insurance excluding “all treatment for gender dysphoria” (including sex-change surgery and drugs related to the procedure) to surgery for breast cancer and hormone therapy for menopausal women. “The fact of the matter is, for example, that the plan pays for mastectomies when medically necessary for cancer treatment but not when mastectomies are medically necessary for sex change surgery,” the judge writes. “And the plan pays for hormone replacement therapy medically necessary for the treatment of menopause, but not hormone replacement therapy medically necessary for “sex change.” The undisputed, ultimate point is that the Exclusion applies only to transgender members, and it applies to Lange [the plaintiff] because she is transgender.”

In 2019 a veteran male deputy sheriff in Houston County with a population of around 155,300, sued his employer after being denied a vaginoplasty, a complex surgical procedure in which surgeons may remove the penis and testes and use tissue to construct a vagina. It is also known as penile inversion and can cost up to $25,000. In 2017, after serving years in uniform as a man, the officer who now goes by the name Anna Lange, came out as transgender and was subsequently diagnosed with gender dysphoria. Lange takes hormone replacement therapy and paid thousands of dollars for breast augmentation surgery to feminize his chest. But Lange continues to suffer significant distress and anxiety due to the incongruence between his female gender identity and his remaining male physical characteristics, according to the court document. “When such symptoms persist, gender-confirming surgery is considered “medically necessary,” the recent ruling states, adding that an endocrinologist, two psychologists and a surgeon recommended Lange have a vaginoplasty, which is also known as “bottom surgery” to treat his gender dysphoria.

In 2018, Lange tried to get the surgery covered by the county insurance but was denied and a year later the Transgender Legal Defense & Education Fund (TLDEF), a nonprofit that aims to end discrimination and achieve equality for transgender people, sued the county on his behalf. The group stresses that the World Professional Association for Transgender Health, a nonprofit that evidently is considered the authority on such issues, recommends gender affirming care whenever a person is diagnosed with gender dysphoria. “The Court’s decision makes clear that depriving transgender people of healthcare is not only immoral but also illegal,” said the legal director of TLDEF in a statement celebrating last week’s ruling. “An employer cannot refuse health coverage to a transgender employee who needs access to medically necessary, life-saving care. This ruling will have transformative impact on the quality of life for countless transgender people who live in the South.”

Although less than one percent of the American population is transgender, the Biden administration has launched a fierce governmentwide effort to provide special accommodations with key federal agencies implementing significant measures to support those who identify as transgender. This includes the U.S. Census Bureau spending $10 million to research how to best add questions about sexual orientation and gender identity on surveys. The State Department is allowing all American citizens to select an X as their gender marker on U.S. passport applications. The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), the first federal agency to fly a transgender pride flag above its headquarters, will soon reveal its plan to “best serve LGBTQI+ Americans” based on a comprehensive study on “Measuring Sex, Gender Identity, and Sexual Orientation” conducted by the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the nation’s medical research agency. HHS is also using another “groundbreaking” taxpayer-funded study on how transgender Americans want to see themselves reflected on federal identifications. The Social Security Administration is eliminating a rule requiring transgender people to provide legal or medical documentation of their identity on official records. The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), the federal agency that enforces the nation’s workplace discrimination laws, will promote greater equity and inclusion for members of the transgender community by providing the option to select an X gender marker during the initial intake process of filing a discrimination charge. The Department of Education will update federal student aid forms to include gender identity when applying for federal financial aid, which the administration asserts will inform the agency about barriers “transgender and non-binary students face in the financial aid process.”

It’s Obama and Censorship vs. Elon Musk and Free Speech – Will America and the Civilized World Win?

April 26, 2022 Ogghy Filed Under: Gateway Pundit, THE NEWS

Freedom of speech vs. tyranny and censorship  –  Will America and the world follow Elon Musk’s vision of Twitter or Barack Obama’s call for more censorship?  

Frank Gaffney released his Secure Freedom Minute this morning.  Today’s minute discussed the long-term highway that humanity will travel.  Will America and the world follow Barack Obama and censorship of free speech or will it follow free speech as espoused by Elon Musk during his efforts to purchase Twitter?  Which way will we go?  Will the first amendment die or thrive?

Last week Obama was at Stanford where he discussed his ideas for censoring free speech.  He argues that whatever he doesn’t like is disinformation and he wants this stopped.  This is not free speech.

Obama and Hillary Push for Government Censorship and Restrictions on Speech Claiming This Will “Bolster World Democracy”

Elon Musk two weeks ago shared that his efforts to take over Twitter were more than about the money.

New Credit Card Company Wants To Counter Woke Banks

April 26, 2022 Ogghy Filed Under: INVESTIGATIONS, Washington Free Beacon

A credit card company launching Tuesday will allow cardholders to funnel cash to conservative causes in an attempt to push back on a woke corporate culture that has seen banks funnel billions to causes like Black Lives Matter and the Clinton Foundation.

Coign, whose advisory team includes former Republican senator Cory Gardner (Colo.), is eschewing those politics, instead allowing cardholders to cast votes on which charities receive their merchant fees.

“Too many corporations are investing their customers’ money in political and social priorities that align with their executives, the media, and the left’s agenda,” Coign founder Rob Collins, a former GOP political operative, told the Washington Free Beacon. “Coign will let conservatives voice their priorities through charitable donations they get to pick.”

Credit card companies and banks have ramped up donations to left-wing groups in recent years: JPMorganChase & Co. donated more than $2 billion to Black Lives Matter and criminal justice reform groups in response to the movement’s protests, while Bank of America pledged to spend $1 billion on a so-called racial equity program.

The country’s top 10 largest credit card issuers, including Chase and Bank of America, gave more than $2.6 billion to Black Lives Matter initiatives after George Floyd’s death in 2020 and tens of millions more to other liberal groups, according to data accessed through Foundation Directory Online.

The corporations also donated more than $29 million to the left-wing immigration group UnidosUS, $2 million to the Clinton Foundation, and $1.2 million to pro-abortion groups. Goldman Sachs, meanwhile, has donated $3.5 million to Chinese universities and $5 million to the Obama Foundation.

Seventy percent of American adults have a credit card, according to Shift. There are more than one billion active credit cards in the country.
