Marco Rubio Leads Second Round Of Trump Noms Into Confirmation Hearings: Live Updates

On Wednesday morning, the Supreme Court handed Team Sanity the victory we’ve all been fighting for.
In United States v. Skrmetti, the high court <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/supreme-court-upholds-tennessees-ban-on-transgender-drugs-for-children?topStoryPosition=undefined&amp;author=Mairead+Elordi&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=0&amp;row=1&amp;rowHeadline=Top+Stories&amp;rowType=Top+Stories&amp;title=Supreme+Court+Upholds+Tennessee%E2%80%99s+Ban+On+Transgender+Drugs+For+Children">ruled</a> 6-3, upholding Tennessee’s ban on child castration, sterilization, and mutilation — the result of Matt Walsh’s investigation into Vanderbilt Hospital. This is a crushing defeat for the gender cult that would not have existed without The Daily Wire’s reporting and the support of our members.

In 2022, Walsh <a href="https://x.com/MattWalshBlog/status/1572313369528635392?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1572313523232931840%7Ctwgr%5Ee812ea30b28c5a961e2c1f05bbd60185ad5fbd26%7Ctwcon%5Es2_&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.dailywire.com%2Fnews%2Fadolescent-chest-reconstruction-surgeries-increase-nearly-400-in-us-report">published</a> a deep dive into Vanderbilt University Medical Center, revealing their administration of irreversible hormone drugs and mastectomies on kids. The exposé on Vanderbilt’s gender procedures generated a firestorm of backlash among Americans who were horrified by the dangers of the radical gender treatments on children. 
Since Walsh began shining a light on the issue, more information has emerged on the dangers of puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones. Puberty blockers can affect bone growth and density and cause sexual dysfunction, voice damage, and infertility, among other issues, while cross-sex hormones can cause infertility, deadly blood clots, heart attacks, increased risk of both breast and ovarian cancers, liver dysfunction, worsening psychological illness, and other serious conditions.
Walsh, along with The Daily Wire, were among the first to sound the alarm on these health risks for children, and we have continued to advocate for protecting children from irreversible gender procedures. Walsh hosted a “Rally to End Child Mutilation” at the State Capitol, where lawmakers pledged action — and delivered, banning transgender drugs and surgeries on children in Tennessee. More Republican-led states soon followed.  
Of course, the Left fought back. The ACLU and the Biden administration sued to block Tennessee’s law on child gender procedures, but on Wednesday, the Supreme Court sided with Tennessee. They sided with us.
Because of your support, we changed history.
Victories like this are rare in journalism, and we should celebrate. The next step is a nationwide ban on this barbarism. That’s now more achievable than ever. But we need your continued support. 
This is what The Daily Wire does.
We don’t just report. We expose. We provoke. We fight.
We told the truth when no one else would. In 2022, we released “What is a Woman?” — a documentary that demolished gender pseudoscience with clarity, courage, and yes, humor. The left tried to cancel it. But millions watched anyway.

In 2024, we partnered with Turning Point USA to release Identity Crisis, a raw, gut-wrenching look at the damage gender ideology has done to children, families, and society. Detransitioners. Parents. Whistleblowers. All silenced by the media. But not by us.
These aren’t just documentaries. They’re weapons of truth.
And they’ve changed the game.

SCOTUS Hands Daily Wire Major Victory In Protecting Children From Gender Procedures

Traversing the tragic road of chronic illness is never an easy feat, especially when the victim is your child. However, nothing is more important than teaching a kid to resiliently aim upwards when life throws a curveball. 
But how do parents encourage their child when certain activities are not an option due to health issues? In the final episode of “<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/show/parenting">Parenting</a>,” Dr. Jordan B. Peterson sits down with parents Greer and Catherine to discuss their four-year-old’s chronic illness, as well as how to uplift him in creative activities. 
“Three weeks ago,” the father, Greer, said, “my wife and I learned that our four-year-old son was diagnosed with a rare neurological condition that is going to progress throughout his childhood and life to the point where he may lose the ability to use his feet, legs, hands, and arms.”
“We live on a cul-de-sac full of little boys,” the mother, Catherine, added. “He runs out and wants to play with them on the asphalt and, inevitably, he will bite the dust and faceplant on the asphalt. He wants to play with them and we want him to play with them.”
The parents went on to explain how their son is imaginative and creatively driven, as well as that he likes to play with older kids who will happily sit down and play games with him. 
Dr. Peterson informed the parents that their task is to help their son “find his way” in the non-physical activities he enjoys.
“You’ve already adapted to this,” Dr. Peterson said. “That’s worth knowing. The best predictor of future performance is past performance, and you already have a track record of that. You already know how to make the adaptations that are necessary for this particular child.” 
Watch “<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/show/parenting">Resilience</a>” on DailyWire+ to find out how Dr. Peterson advises the parents to help their child adapt.

Navigating The Treacherous Road Of Chronic Illness With Your Children

LIVE UPDATES: Trump Insists The Ceasefire Still On After Violations

Making sure your teen feels open enough to communicate can be a daunting task for parents, but it’s of utmost importance in maintaining a healthy parent-teen relationship, especially in dealing with bullying and avoiding crowds of bad actors.
But how do parents accomplish this without falling into the vice of helicopter parenting? In the third full-length episode of “<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/show/parenting">Parenting</a>,” Dr. Jordan Peterson sits down with parents Sean and Jennifer to discuss the importance of knowing when and when not to step into the social lives of their two teens. 
<a href="https://get.dailywire.com/gift/?utm_medium=website&amp;utm_source=wisepops&amp;utm_campaign=dad&amp;utm_content=fathersdaygiftpopups&amp;_gl=1*6hlksl*_gcl_au*MTg2MDQ4NjcyNi4xNzQ4OTczNTc3LjE0MDMwMTM0NjYuMTc0OTA0NzMxMi4xNzQ5MDQ3MzMw*_ga*ODc5MDIyMjYwLjE3NDg5NzM1NzU.*_ga_CZKR9ZYKJP*czE3NDkyMjYyOTMkbzE3JGcxJHQxNzQ5MjI4NzY1JGoxOSRsMCRoMA..">Gift Dad an All Access Membership.

“Our daughter, when she was in fifth grade, was bullied by an LGBTQ club and friends at her school that tried to pressure her to join,” the mother, Jennifer, said. “We started noticing a change in her, and she eventually came to tell us that these students were bullying her.”
“As this is happening, our son, who’s in seventh grade… you start to see him hanging around with the wrong friend group,” the father, Sean, added. “He was starting to withdraw from us as a family… [He] turned to substance abuse at that time.”’
The parents explained how their relationship with their children, especially their son, is not as strong as they desire it to be. Jennifer pointed out their son has expressed a desire for “freedom.”
Dr. Peterson encouraged the parents to reasonably communicate with their son and have him develop a vision for the freedom he wants.
“Freedom and anarchy aren’t the same thing,” he said. “Freedom to do anything? That just makes you anxious. You want ordered freedom.”
Watch “<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/show/parenting">Bullying + Peer Pressure</a>” on DailyWire+ to find out how Dr. Peterson advises Sean and Jennifer to deal with their teens’ social issues.

How Communication Will Save Your Relationship With Your Teen

This September, Daily Wire co-founder Ben Shapiro will release “<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Lions-Scavengers-Story-America-Critics/dp/1668097885/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&amp;dib_tag=se&amp;dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.Pg18nHlVX2neyh7VlgVdIKje9EBKlWHDPzfz2hz6y3Q3oyWp8Jv4YdfQyesgs3y-.a1CzqX5hmYc9zIJ3x9S3IyReflqRxvFeP5akr1dlPB8&amp;qid=1749148351&amp;sr=1-1">Lions and Scavengers: The True Story of America (and Her Critics)</a>,” his first book in four years. Shapiro calls it, “My most important book, certainly my most passionate.”
In the wake of the horrific attacks on innocent Israelis on October 7, 2023, Shapiro was left shocked, not only by the barbaric acts of the terrorist group Hamas, but by the strange, disturbing response he witnessed from those in the West.
“Something deeply wrong had happened in the West,” says Shapiro. 
The host of “The Ben Shapiro Show” then spent the next year traveling the globe, visiting Auschwitz alongside Elon Musk, flying to Buenos Aires, Argentina, to meet with newly elected president Javier Milei, and speaking at Oxford University in England. It was what he saw on the streets of London that affected him most.
“Just last weekend, London saw a massive river of protesters,” writes Shapiro. “Hundreds of thousands strong, marching with their banners unfurled: the banners of terrorist groups and of communists and of transgender activists, gathered together to revolt against the civilization that has given them their rights and their prosperity and their power.”
“Lions and Scavengers” will release on September 2, 2025, and is published by Threshold Editions, the conservative publishing imprint of Simon &amp; Schuster, an imprint originally launched by Mary Matalin, the conservative wife of Democratic talking head James Carville.
The Harvard Law graduate&#8217;s new book is <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Lions-Scavengers-Story-America-Critics/dp/1668097885/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&amp;dib_tag=se&amp;dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.Pg18nHlVX2neyh7VlgVdIKje9EBKlWHDPzfz2hz6y3Q3oyWp8Jv4YdfQyesgs3y-.a1CzqX5hmYc9zIJ3x9S3IyReflqRxvFeP5akr1dlPB8&amp;qid=1749148351&amp;sr=1-1">now available for pre-order</a>.

As leftist leaders continue to obfuscate the threats to Western civilization, Shapiro’s book could not have arrived at a better time.
Some say the West is experiencing 1930s Germany all over again, and Shapiro confirms that a new form of “Scavenger” is on the prowl. “The Scavengers have gathered, here in the beating heart of what was once the center of Western civilization, to bay for more blood, and to scream at a West that insists that defense against terror is the first right of all men.”
Shapiro also insists this is larger than the persecution of the Jews. “This is not mere anti-Semitism. Anti-Semitism is an age-old hatred rooted in a conspiracy theory; it takes many forms and has countless victims. This is something different. It is a united, coalitional hatred of the West.”
As a proven author with multiple #1 New York Times bestselling titles to his credit and as the host of one of the most widely listened-to podcasts, Shapiro has earned the authority to speak on this topic in this critical hour of world history.
While Shapiro’s “<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Lions-Scavengers-Story-America-Critics/dp/1668097885/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&amp;dib_tag=se&amp;dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.Pg18nHlVX2neyh7VlgVdIKje9EBKlWHDPzfz2hz6y3Q3oyWp8Jv4YdfQyesgs3y-.a1CzqX5hmYc9zIJ3x9S3IyReflqRxvFeP5akr1dlPB8&amp;qid=1749148351&amp;sr=1-1">Lions and Scavengers</a>” will illuminate the gathering storm facing the leaders of the West, his message, however, is not only for adults. &#8220;We need to be a civilization of Lions. We need to teach our children to be Lions, and to fight the Scavengers.&#8221;
Be prepared for the days ahead — reserve your copy of “Lions and Scavengers” now.

Ben Shapiro Announces Release Of ‘Lions And Scavengers,’ His ‘Most Important Book’

The teenage years can present numerous challenges that parents must adapt to, and it’s vital for a child’s development that parents don’t give up on teaching them responsibility, even when they start talking back with an attitude. 
In the second full-length episode of “<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/show/parenting">Parenting</a>,” Dr. Jordan Peterson sits down with parents Jamie and Casey to talk through ways they can foster responsibility with their 13-year-old son, who is prone to throwing tantrums when he’s told something he doesn’t like. 
“We&#8217;ve got two kids, a 13-year-old and a 5-year-old,” the father, Casey, said. “Our 13-year-old, of course, was the only child for seven years. During that time, we spoiled the heck out of him because I grew up with nothing. And Jamie grew up in a household where things were love.”
“We both ended up funneling our attention on our children into things for those two reasons,” Casey added. “As a result, our 13-year-old throws tantrums quite often, loud screaming tantrums when he doesn&#8217;t get his way. And we&#8217;re trying to figure out how to get him through this part of his life to become a responsible adult.”

The parents asked Peterson how they can handle their teen’s behavior and push him in the right direction. 
“I think it helps when I talk to him like a human being,” Jamie said. “So if I ask him to do dishes or I say, ‘I really need you to help me with this, do you think you can do that?’ And he’ll say, ‘Yes.’”
Peterson then pointed to multiple questions parents can ask their children about contributing to household needs. 
“Well, he&#8217;s old enough to start thinking about that because he may never even notice that if he does pull his weight, he feels better about himself, and he&#8217;s more mature,” Peterson said. 
Watch “<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/show/parenting">Teaching Responsibility</a>,” the latest episode of “Parenting,” on DailyWire+ to find out how Peterson advised that Casey and Jaimie, and parents like them, foster a relationship with their teenagers while also pushing them to become responsible adults.
