A generation ago it would have been prosecuted as child abuse. It should be again.

Kidbuck's avatar

Yes, and until the "gender affirming care" madness ENDS "we" HAVE lost our way as a society.

Let it be known that I am NOT a part of that society.

Do you despise homosexuals also? Some people are not "neurotypical" as I learned when I had a son with autism (No, I did not take tylenol). Homosexuals must have "difference" in their brains that makes them sexually attracted to the same sex. Do you recall deciding to be a heterosexual? It is logical that if the "difference" is more widespread, it might lead to "gender dysphoria." I see no reason to despise either homosexuals or transexuals.

A generation before that, it would have been considered a Josef Mengele war crime.

Secret Squirrel's avatar

I don’t think it was a fad, except maybe a manufactured fad. This was a deliberate threat actor destroying the future of our type of society. Western society. You don’t see these same efforts among Muslim societies, do you? Or Chinese? African? No. It’s just us. Let me rephrase, US.

Danimal28's avatar

Can't say it any better.

Jim I's avatar

Several generations ago those involved would have been “prosecuted” as demons and mysteriously disappeared.

Susan Bruce's avatar

I get that you are angry, but why blame it all on the Democrats. They are doing everything they can to stop it. And yes, today the Epstein files get attention as they should.

SuezCanal's avatar

WHAT? Did I read this correctly? The Democrats are doing everything they can to stop it? Exactly who among the Democrats are doing so?

What planet are you from?

Today, Congress voted to release the Epstein files, now Repubs are eliminating republican names from the files. They are replacing all the "Trumps" with "Clinton".

Bob's avatar

Epstein files? Non-sequitor. Epstein, for one, did not harm or molest pre-pubescent children.

NWCitizen's avatar

Yeah ,as Megan Kelly says he liked 15 year olds which she doesn't see as a problem.

Bob's avatar

What straight man does not find 15 year olds attractive? That is normal.

NWCitizen's avatar

Well, raping them is a big problem as is possessing child pornography.

Bob's avatar

So does chopping them up into little pieces and putting them in a stew, but what does have to do with the subject at hand?

I have 4 nieces who are now young adults but still traumatized by their time in foster system (as well as time with messed up bio mom). They were raised from late elementary school in permanent loving home but are struggling into adulthood due to past abuses. My D leaning wife especially has a heart for them, as do I. Today I shared with my wife Melanie and Trump’s ‘Fostering the Future’ EO (announced today) to shine light on older foster kids, to help them transition to trade school, college, job. These kids have no savings of their own and often no familia safety net. My wife almost weeped when I shared Trump’s efforts. Small steps.

Ruth H's avatar

This was Melania’s concept as First Lady to promote and support foster children.

TWC's avatar

And it will NEVER be given even the slightest attention....

KARYN TRUITT's avatar

Nope. Nothing that the Trumps do is ever shown as good, even something like this program. When people talk about the great good and the kind things he has done - completely out of the 'limelight' - they sneer and say it was for show.

First Lady Trump was a model, a *runway* model, and the so-called fashion rags won't even put her on the cover....

Kathy Christian's avatar

They marinate themselves in hate.

Pam Humphrey's avatar

exactly....i read something recently that claimed melania has done nothing as first lady

Tricia's avatar

She is also working on an initiative regarding education and AI.

NWCitizen's avatar

Michelle Obama started a program called "Let's Move" to try to motivate children to get more exercise and changed school lunches to provide healthy food (Instead of corn dogs & tater tots which my kids were served in schools). It is similar to what RFK, Jr is trying to promoted except she was despised and ridiculed for her efforts.

Pam Humphrey's avatar

i remember the lunch program! it was so awful the children wouldn't eat it!

not really sure what your reply has to do with my comment.

NWCitizen's avatar

Yes, children missed their junk food. Sadly fruit and vegetables aren't as tasty as corndogs.

Susan Bruce's avatar

I think you have bought into Trump’s lies. It’s the Democrats who have stood against abuse of all kinds, while the Trump regime fosters it!!

Roger Beal's avatar

ROTFLMAO, Ms Bruce. Your evidence? Some receipts? Or is all that paperwork in a box in Joe Biden's Delaware garage?

234's avatar

Democrats standing against abuse of all kinds? Did you really say that?

Are not millions of illegal aliens abusing our healthcare system, not to mention the child rapists abusing, you know, our CHILDREN?

Get a grip Cinderella

Ruth H's avatar

Dems promoting abortion up to birth….exactly the opposite of protecting children

New report on the Barack Obama

Affordable Care Act shows

- 6.4 million people are fraudulently receiving Obamacare subsidies

- 62% of Obamacare subsidy recipients don't qualify

- $27 billion a year in fraud from Obamacare

- 500,000-800,000 undocumented are on ACA plans via fraud (e.g., fake SSNs or status lies during open enrollment) - Paragon Health Institute (June 2025)

estimates

- 300,000 noncitizens (including undocumented) in subsidized plans pre-reforms - CBO (August 2025)

NWCitizen's avatar

Has Trump ever come up with a Health Care plan or is it a "concept of a plan" which will come out in "2 weeks"?

Ruth H's avatar

You are one special kind of person 🤦‍♀️ keep believing the media lies

Frontera Lupita's avatar

That’s hysterical…from what sources can you cite that supports your misguided thinking?

CatherineBH's avatar

Wow what an ignorant response. Sadly that’s all we see from the Deceived Democrat Supporters. The Dems are the pushers of children destroying their God given bodies, how can you be so blind. It’s a spiritual war. Good vs Evil. We know & see clearly who has been behind the brainwashing of the youth. Who is evil in destroying the future generations. Sad that after so many years, you continue to be blind & ignorant.

Bob's avatar

TDS alert. Geez Loueez. "Regime"?

Les Jackson's avatar

Oh Ms. Bruce, wake up or at least do so actual research. Embarrassing.

Frontera Lupita's avatar

How do you know she’s a boomer? The thing you can determine about Ms. Bruce, she leans to the lefty Democrat side of things. How does one know…look at what who they ‘read’ here on Substack. All you have to do is look at her “reads list”. There’s your first clue. She’s not a Boomer. Her list is primarily focused on left leaning woke younger Substackers, the majority of which I have never even heard of. Some haven’t even written any posts.

Then you might want to make a more accurate comment.

I am a boomer and I do not think like the majority of the people I used to be friends with that are my age! There are plenty of Gen Zers on down, who also think like Ms. Bruce. It’s not demographic specific these days. The lefty, transgressive, privileged, white Boomers just have more time to stand out of the street corners with the NoKings and Indivisble “protest movements” and wave lame signs and shout stupid slogans into the air.

Ruth H's avatar

Exactly, as a boomer I detest these Democrat liberal progressive policies and the woketards following. Age has nothing to do with these people…these idiots come in all age groups.

Frontera Lupita's avatar

It’s just that our demographic is more obvious, cause they are the ones standing out on the street corners of America with the NoKings and Invisible “protest” movements. They are the ones who are out on the overpasses of the freeways in NoCA, during the week and weekends, with their NoKings/Indivisible ‘protest banners’. These were also the ones with signs “Yes in 50”, the recent scam of an election that we had just had in Commifornia for Prop 50, Newscum’s 300 million $$$$$ ‘Redistricting election’.

Magdalene's avatar

My apologies, ma'ams, I mean no offense to the age group, I'm using it as a meme about mindset & because it REALLY triggers younger libtarded people.

Magdalene's avatar

Don't take everything so literally! I'm not talking about age, I'm talking about mindset. It's also a bit of a troll because it's about the most triggering comment I can make to anyone younger than boomer age. I'm honestly surprised that at your age you still give a shit- but hey, I'm Gen-X, & nobody even mentions us at all! 😂

Frontera Lupita's avatar

The thing you can determine about Ms. Bruce, she leans to the lefty Democrat side of things. How does one know…look at what/who they ‘read’ here on Substack.

Richard's avatar

The Epstein files were in the possession of the *Biden regime for 4 years. If there was anything incriminating about Trump in there, does anyone believe it would not have been leaked.

Art Eckstein's avatar

The big headline in the 2011 email from Epstein, about Trump being alone in Epstein’s house with a girl? The redacted name is Virginia Giuffre, who testified under oath, and in her autobiography, that Trump never even flirted with her. This is all “Russia Hoax II”.

KEVIN PEARSON's avatar

She was working at Mar-a-lago when Epstein poached her.

Why would anyone be surprised that Trump would recognize and be cordial with a former employee?

KEVIN PEARSON's avatar

Chuck kicked his brother out of the royal family because of his association with Epstein.

But he invites Trump to a state dinner.

If Andrew had any dirt on Trump, the dinner would have been derailed

Pam Humphrey's avatar

i do wonder, why this has been happening now.......they've known about prince andrew for years

Bleonard3's avatar

Possibly clearing the decks for William of that generation’s problems before Charles passes.

Magdalene's avatar

Probably because Tulsi Gabbard stopped by for a little visit (right before Trump arrived to summon them to his golf club) to let them know we have all the goods on their involvement with Russiagate.

R H's avatar

There's a new Sheriff in town, King Charles. The Queen Mother was more forgiving.

Eric Sowers's avatar

“Randy Andy.” It’s happening now because the Royals are facing the end of monarchy and are chucking deadweight overboard.

ScottyG's avatar

That takes a smidgen of common sense…and, well, you know how that goes with the “hate has no home here” crowd.

Darrell Lucus's avatar

Because Maxwell’s case was still in the appeals process. Releasing it then would have been improper and unlawful.

Bob's avatar

Exactly. Defamation lawsuits from wealthy folks with lawyers would begin from now through eternity.

Darrell Lucus's avatar

There’s a more fundamental reason. Like it or not, Maxwell had rights, and releasing those files would have trampled on them.

Kmmasm's avatar

One million times YES EXACTLY!!!!!

Jim I's avatar

These elitist white moms have a sick psychotic need to appear to be cool to each other — even if it means they support their young children to be mutilated. Hopefully as these kids come of age they sue the parents, the schools, the teachers and the physicians for all they are worth for allowing this butchery.

Richard's avatar

One of Kurt Schliter's post apocalypse novels features a terrorist group of victims that hunts down the perps and kills them.

Benj's avatar

Which one is it? Kurt's a good friend so I'm always excited to find one of his readers.

JJoshua's avatar

Probably his People’s Republic series

True justice would be all adults responsible, medical, and school personne as well as so called "parents" would recieve the ultimate penalty.

California State Senator Scott Wiener is horrifying. All the gender madness and also a fierce defender of Chicken Hawk rights.

Brian DeLeon's avatar

Apparently there are a large number of chicken hawks in San Francisco who keep electing this giant Wiener into political office.

cat's avatar

At least his name is honest. He's a d*ck.

Roberta L's avatar

I once worked for a Harry Weiner in California. I think they are related.

He was also a d*ck.

Frontera Lupita's avatar

He’s awful, and voters in Commifornia beware, Weiner has his eyes upon Nancy P’s soon to be vacated NoCA congressional seat!

steven t koenig's avatar

Two minutes into that video I just gave up on what we have become. Complete fools. The fools who thought this was a good idea, may they burn in hell. The rest of the fools who knew it was wrong but went along to get along should be eternally ashamed.

Insanity! Pure insanity.

The emperor has no brains.

The dems have no critical thinkers, other than Fettrman.

KARYN TRUITT's avatar

prayers for him, I heard he fell yesterday and may have been injured.

Sandy's avatar

Maybe his stroke fixed something in his brain…

Lynette's avatar

Democrats' support of abortion also negates "We have to protect the children."

Cindy's avatar

Yes abortion, trans affirming ‘care’ for children and the unaccompanied minors who crossed the border with a ‘sponsor’, yet we cannot find them. They do not care about children in my opinion

Kathy Christian's avatar

The democrat party subsists on blood. The more people die and are horrifically injured under their policies, the better, as far as they're concerned. They then turn around and use these deaths and injuries as the reasons to further their "cause."

KEVIN PEARSON's avatar

And "who me?" approach to the Irina Zarutska and Logan Federico murders, just to name a few.

You can't pretend to care about children, if you don't care if they get murdered just a few years available after they become adults

Sandy's avatar

Don’t forget Jocelyn Nungaray, an actual child raped and murdered by 2 illegals.

Grieving Father's avatar

I have two young adult kids... both of them trans. Both were ordinary smart geeky kids who were brainwashed at school and online. I would do literally anything to have at least one of them desist. I will loath the Left forever for what they have done to my children.

Kathryn's avatar

💧I am so so sorry, and hope your situation heals.

Roberta L's avatar

I can’t even imagine your grief. My sympathy.

KARYN TRUITT's avatar

My heart hurts for you. I hope they come to realize the truth.

Emilie H's avatar

I'm watching this happen in my extended family also. It's so painful. I can't figure out how to do anything.

Grieving Father's avatar

The best advice I can offer is to love them and hope they come to their senses. I pray this contagion ends soon.

APriori's avatar

Also, there’s nothing to Democrats’ attempt to tie Trump to Epstein. They ‘redacted’ the name of a victim who’s already extremely public—Virginia Giuffre—and who stated very publicly that she never saw Trump do anything inappropriate or unethical.

Democrats are *desperate.*

reality speaks's avatar

The left is pure evil and their behavior towards the unborn and now children is all the evidence that we need. They worship a devil not a loving god.

spingerah's avatar

Yes. I'm all in, by what ever means nessissary.

David White's avatar

And why is it that the rest of the Western world has turned away from transgenderism, and America has not? Because in America, medical care is for profit, and transgenderism is a Cash Cow. It is the gift that keeps on giving. Or rather the steal that keeps on stealing.

KEVIN PEARSON's avatar

If that were true then why are Brits hating on JK Rowling and jailing comedians over tweets?

Bob's avatar

Is Britain still part of the Western world?

Roger J's avatar

I am 73 years old, and "gender affirming" operations on children is the greatest evil I have seen in my lifetime. I am deeply concerned that Christian and Jewish religious institutions have been largely silent on this evil. Not one clergyman, to my knowledge, has risked persecution and prison by actively and repeatedly speaking out. We all know the Biden Administration would have prosecuted any who did. Where were our Bonhoeffers, Niemoellers, and Galens? These men took far greater risks in opposition to evil, whether it was the T4 "euthanasia" program, or the persecution of Jews. They paid in prison time, or in Bonhoeffer's case, with his life. I am profoundly disappointed in churches and temples that apparently cannot recognize evil when it is so blatant. For that reason I am now an "unchurched" Christian.

GabeReal's avatar

I find it ironic that the Dems are all of a sudden so up in arms about “the Epstein Files”. It was originally MAGA that demanded the release of them, because the biggest names on the list are Democrats, with Clinton at the top.

AncientViking's avatar

They are (trying to) take away the focus on their shutdown they perpetrated, which basically blew up in their faces. If there is one thing (maybe then only thing) the dem-comms are expert at: is deflection and projection. They themselves are are guilty times 10 of that which they gratuitously accuse...

KEVIN PEARSON's avatar

Unborn white females are murdered in the womb.

Democrats celebrate it as "women's rights"

A pervert in Loudon County, Virginia dons a skirt and rapes a 14-year old girl in the bathroom.

Democrats cover it up, transfer him to a different school where he does it again and the girls father is arrested when he complaining.

Twenty-something white females, such as Irina Zarutska and Logan Federico, are murdered by "criminals" who have been released multiple times by Democrat judges.

Crickets from Democrats.

Sorry, they must be really stupid to think that that we believe that they really care about the white women in a very narrow age window and who lived to tell about it.

Pam Humphrey's avatar

somehow they still have the older white women bamboozled
