Planned Parenthood targets vulnerable Republicans with $47M midterm push
Topic: Abortion
Source: The Hill
Planned Parenthood is investing a near-record $47 million into the November midterm elections aiming to unseat the Republicans who voted to cut off the organization from federal funding last year. The “We Decide” campaign from Planned Parenthood Votes — an independent Super PAC affiliated with Planned Parenthood — will target ads and voter outreach in battleground House races in Arizona, California, Colorado, Iowa, Michigan, New York, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. The funding will also go toward key Senate races in Michigan, where Democrats are likely running against former GOP Rep. Mike Rogers, and potentially Maine, even though Sen. Susan Collins (R) voted against the underlying bill that cut Planned Parenthood funding.

A female officer stated they would be cited if they said anything “offensive.” When Penkoski responded that offensive speech is protected under the Constitution and is not a crime, the officer claimed it fell under disorderly conduct, stating, “Well, yes, that is the conduct.” Another officer further confirmed that citations would be based solely on whether others were offended. When Penkoski asked whether calling a biological male a “male” would result in a citation if someone took offense, the officer responded that if he continued doing so and someone found it offensive, he would be cited. Penkoski also pointed out that he was deeply offended by half-naked men walking around children at the event, but the officer dismissed the complaint, responding, “There’s really not much I can do about that.”

Klepach, a former assistant U.S. attorney and senior counsel for the National Jewish Advocacy Center. The Front Line (TFL) will operate as a 501(c)(4) nonprofit, meaning the group will not have to disclose its donors and can spend unlimited sums toward political activity, provided campaign finance is not its primary purpose and it does not contribute directly to campaigns.

TCW: An announcement

The Conservative Woman website is closing down, has been forced to close after 12 years. "When you are blacklisted, investors run scared. That blacklisting also took the form of a barrage of censorship that stopped us advertising – a significant source of revenue. We were banned by every single online ad agency, and by the whole of Facebook (Meta) during lockdown which, we were advised via a government tip-off was because of an issue with Whitehall, most likely over our covid reporting. Such was the Conservative government’s covid censorship crackdown. From then on we were totally reliant on donations and never recovered the readership to fund the revenue stream we needed to grow. There was another reason for that." [Ed: TCW is continuing on Substack https://righttimes.substack.com/.]:

One issue on which teachers unions and conservative reformers agree

While disagreeing on most else, teacher unions and conservative education policy reformers share views on cellphone bans, AI guardrails in K-12 public schools. Teachers unions and education reformers are historically longtime rivals – frequently bumping heads over policies surrounding school choice, parents' rights, and Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion practices in K-12 schools. There's one issue, however, upon which these groups agree – that technology, creeping first via phones and now Artificial Intelligence, is interfering with student learning. "Social media and student personal device use have become a constant presence in our schools,” said Becky Pringle, president of the National Education Association, the nation’s largest teachers union. “And educators are seeing firsthand the serious impact they can have on student mental health, safety and learning.”

New Masculinity Puts the Cart Before the Horse
Topic: Men's Movement
Source: In His Words
Why Nature Comes First When Nurturing Boys. Some contemporaries are calling for a new masculinity, a message presented in all sorts of ways in our K-12 education, colleges, work-environments, public policy, therapy, and media institutions. Think of Liz Planks, For the Love of Men: From Toxic to a More Mindful Masculinity. There are others of course. One has to wonder how this “new masculinity” message might resonate with our children and the parents, communities, and institutions that aim to raise and support them. What thoughts, conversations, and activities come from this new age mindset? How do children and institutions internalize and exercise this new masculinity?

New Homeland Security Task Forces Target Immigrants Over Sex Work
Topic: Porn, Prostitution, and Sexual Freedom
Source: Reason
The Trump administration is protecting Americans from an invasion of illicit handjobs. The Trump administration claims that its new Homeland Security task forces are here to protect Americans from an "invasion" by undocumented immigrants and thwart terrorist organizations, foreign cartels, and transnational gangs. So why are they targeting immigrant asylum seekers—who are in the country legally—over sex work? To be fair, this seems to be a minor part of the task forces' business. Much of the time, they've been waging a drug war against American citizens, as I reported last month.
