Hamas was just dekeing everyone, including their Qatari allies. They wanted a full-scale war, and now they’ll keep getting one. Let this be a lesson for Israel’s allies: Israel is not the problem. https://hotair.com/headlines/2024/02/02/breaking-hamas-rejects-hostage-deal-demands-everything-n609198 .

A Rainbow-Colored Cage Transgender ideology is sustained by scholars’ unwillingness to challenge its contradictory premises. More people are identifying as transgender and seeking medical care for gender dysphoria than ever before. Between 2018 and 2022, gender-dysphoria diagnoses increased considerably in every state in the U.S. except for South Dakota, according to Definitive Healthcare. Children’s share of dysphoria diagnoses rose from 17.5 percent to 20.4 percent in that same period. A JAMA paper noted a threefold increase in “gender-affirming” surgeries between 2016 and 2019. The story that the “gender-affirming” camp tells itself about these developments is equal parts illuminating and frustrating. Proponents typically claim that transgender people, as we understand them today, have always existed, and that more people identify as trans because the public has become more aware and accepting of transgender identities. In other words, these activists believe that apparent increases in the trans-identifying population are not really increases at all; they merely reflect that the language, tools, and cultural climate are now in place to gauge more accurately the trans population’s size. https://www.city-journal.org/article/a-rainbow-colored-cage .

See If You Can Spot the Problem: Pro-Hamas Protesters Block Roads Into Washington, D.C. VICTORIA TAFT It was a rude awakening for people who work for the United States government on Thursday. Pro-Hamas terrorist protesters blocked major roadways into the nation's capitol to pressure the lawmakers, bureaucrats, and apparatchiks in their cars from getting to work for the American people — or, in Joe Biden's America, working against them. See if you can spot a problem with this. Police call these protests First Amendment Activity, but it doesn't take a high-level counter-terrorism expert who was also delayed from driving to work on Thursday to know that all it takes is for one of these yahoos with a suicide vest to hit the detonator and all hell breaks loose. They might even call it, oh, I don't know, terrorism or something. WJLA reported that the unpermitted protests "caused road closures on Interstate 395 at C & D Streets Northwest and 14th Street Northwest starting at around 8:40 a.m." In another part of Washington, protesters closed along Interstate 66 Eastbound at 23rd Street and Constitution Avenue Northwest was reopened at 9:30 a.m." https://pjmedia.com/victoria-taft/2024/02/01/see-if-you-can-spot-the-problem-pro-hamas-protesters-block-roads-to-washington-dc-and-cops-do-nothing-n4926022

How much did you pay for gas and groceries today?
B-Man replied to Big Blitz's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
"Grocery prices have jumped by 25 percent over the past four years, outpacing overall inflation of 19 percent during the same period...." WaPo reports... with predictable efforts to support Biden. Americans are finally getting a break from inflation, with prices for gasoline, used cars and health insurance all falling over the past year, relieving families and buoying President Biden’s 2024 reelection bid.... Stubbornly high grocery prices represent a critical drain on the finances of tens of millions of people and remain, along with housing, perhaps the most persistent economic challenge for the Biden administration as it tries to convince Americans the economy is back on solid footing.... https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2024/02/02/grocery-price-inflation-biden/ . -
No kidding. "Trans activists often cite low regret rates for gender transition, along with low figures for detransition. But those studies..." "... which often rely on self-reported cases to gender clinics, likely understate the actual numbers. None of the seven detransitioners I interviewed, for instance, even considered reporting back to the gender clinics that prescribed them medication they now consider to have been a mistake.... Garcia-Ryan is gay, but as a boy, he said, 'it was much less threatening to my psyche to think that I was a straight girl born into the wrong body — that I had a medical condition that could be tended to.' When he visited a clinic at 15, the clinician immediately affirmed he was female.... 'You’re made to believe these slogans,' he said. 'Evidence-based, lifesaving care, safe and effective, medically necessary, the science is settled — and none of that is evidence based.'... Garcia-Ryan, 32, is now the board president of Therapy First.... 'When a professional affirms a gender identity for a younger person, what they are doing is implementing a psychological intervention that narrows a person’s sense of self and closes off their options for considering what’s possible for them,' Garcia-Ryan told me...." Writes Pamela Paul, in "As Kids, They Thought They Were Trans. They No Longer Do" (NYT). https://www.nytimes.com/2024/02/02/opinion/transgender-children-gender-dysphoria.html?bgrp=a&smid=url-share .
