Did you know that your tax dollars have been funding experimental “transgender” medical interventions that leave kids stunted, scarred, and infertile? Did you know that when President Donald Trump tried to put a stop to it, activist groups and Democrat attorneys general sued, and judges ordered the administration to keep funding these Frankensteinian “treatments”? It’s hard to overstate just how egregious a medical scandal this is. Activists use the gaslighting term “gender-affirming care” to hide the ugly truth.

Union officials are urging Congress to provide more funding to the Federal Bureau of Prisons. BOP has spent years struggling with staff attrition, and safety and security issues. The American Federation of Government Employees said the fiscal 2024 budget for BOP, as part of the recent government funding deal, would only worsen the agency’s current 40% staffing shortage. And AFGE warned that a 38% cut to funding for facility maintenance would make federal prisons more dangerous environments for both employees and inmates.
