A 35-year-old Washington woman allegedly told authorities she <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/transgender" target="_blank" rel="noopener">identifies</a> as a 15-year-old boy after she was arrested for harboring runaway teens and accused of providing them with drugs and alcohol and sexting them.
Amanda Dorrough was charged with unlawful harboring of minors earlier this month after police said they discovered Dorrough planned to flee Seattle with a group of teenagers, Fox News <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/us/grown-woman-who-identifies-as-15-year-old-boy-faces-wild-claims-of-drugs-sexting-with-teen-runaways-police">reported</a>. The adult woman was arrested on May 4 after the vice principal at Port Angeles High School, northwest of Seattle, reportedly contacted police after two students revealed their plan to run away with Dorrough, who went by the nickname “Taz” with the group of teens.
Dorrough, who the Daily Mail <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12124585/Woman-35-arrested-harboring-runaway-children.html">reports</a> is a mother of three children, allegedly told Clallam County Jail staff that she identifies as a 15-year-old boy.
“She feels like teenagers ‘understand’ her better&#8221; and that &#8220;she ‘identifies’ better with teenage kids,” the report said.
Police found Dorrough in a gully with a boy amid a heap of blankets, &#8220;two empty condom packets, one unopened condom, a bra, and an empty cigarette packet with a lighter,&#8221; according to the police report. At least 10 different incident reports received by police allegedly involved Borrough and her relationship with minors.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Neighbors reportedly called the police after witnessing minors enter and leave Dorrough’s apartment regularly. One neighbor also said the adult woman was seen topless in the hallway with a boy who appeared to be around 13 years old, <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/us/grown-woman-who-identifies-as-15-year-old-boy-faces-wild-claims-of-drugs-sexting-with-teen-runaways-police">according</a> to the report. Police also said that Dorrough was kicked out of a Boys and Girls Club over “perceived ‘predatory’ behavior.&#8221;
When police arrived at the woman’s apartment on May 2, two days before her arrest, they spotted three teenagers running through the parking lot away from Dorrough’s apartment. One officer reportedly heard movement inside Dorrough’s apartment, but police were unable to talk to anyone inside.

The police report — which was first <a href="https://mynorthwest.com/3889164/rantz-pedophile-ish-adult-woman-identifies-15-year-old-boy-per-police-report/">reported</a> by radio host Jason Rantz — alleges that the adult woman got naked in front of minors, touched one inappropriately, and gave them marijuana. One of Dorrough’s alleged victims reportedly told authorities that the 35-year-old woman was “pedophile-ish.” When one of the minors told Dorrough he wasn’t interested in her, she <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12124585/Woman-35-arrested-harboring-runaway-children.html">allegedly</a> got upset and said she would kill herself.
Dorrough was not charged with any sexual offenses and was released on bond on May 14, just 10 days after her arrest.

Washington

Washington state is preparing to spend an estimated $83,000 on an employee diversity training featuring the Director of Drag Queen Story Hour, information obtained by The Daily Wire reveals.
Titled the <a href="https://ofm.wa.gov/state-human-resources/workforce-diversity-equity-and-inclusion/diversity-equity-and-inclusion-council/deiconference" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Washington DEI Empowerment Conference</a>, the training is set to include talks on diversity, “anti-racism,” and equity every Wednesday in June.
Hayden Michaels, the deputy communications director of the Office of Financial Management, told The Daily Wire that “We expect the cost of putting on the conference to be about $83,000. With 16 sessions and 5,000 seats each session, this works out to $1.06 per seat.”
The conference includes a keynote speech titled “Drag Story Hour and Fireside Chat,” which will take place on June 21st.
The speech’s description defends the performance of drag in front of children, explaining that Executive Director of Drag Queen Story Hour Jonathan Hamilt will share “the necessity of LGBTQAI+ family programming and how the powerful art-form of drag teaches young humans about inclusivity, celebrating diversity, and the vital freedom of self-expression.”
Hamilt, who himself dresses in drag, has a personal goal of &#8220;offering affirming and accepting programming for kids&#8221; in an attempt to heal his &#8220;inner child,&#8221; his biography states.
Drag Queen Story Hour has been caught bringing <a href="https://www.khou.com/article/news/local/houston-public-library-admits-registered-child-sex-offender-participated-in-drag-queen-storytime/285-becf3a0d-56c5-4f3c-96df-add07bbd002a" target="_blank" rel="noopener">registered sex offenders</a> into close contact with children at their events on <a href="https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/second-drag-queen-story-hour-library-reader-exposed-as-convicted-child-sex-offender/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">multiple</a> different occasions.
The talk will also include Alex Petrovina and Sam Mendum-Purdy of the Trans Formations Project, a non-profit organization that <a href="https://www.transformationsproject.org" target="_blank" rel="noopener">claims to</a> &#8220;protect trans kids&#8221; and is &#8220;<a href="https://www.transformationsproject.org/about" target="_blank" rel="noopener">dedicated to tracking</a> and educating about the anti-trans legislative crisis currently sweeping the United States.&#8221;
Meanwhile, the conference will also <a href="https://ofm.wa.gov/state-human-resources/workforce-diversity-equity-and-inclusion/diversity-equity-and-inclusion-council/deiconference" target="_blank" rel="noopener">include a talk</a> titled &#8220;Incorporating DEIB and Anti-Racism Work into Recruitment.&#8221; The talk&#8217;s description explains that those working in talent acquisition and Human Resources have &#8220;unique opportunities to create equity and inclusion in very intentional ways in our day-to-day workflow.&#8221; Speakers Lisa Grund and Tangi Tash hope to establish &#8220;authenticity and antiracism as a way of life at work.&#8221;
A session called &#8220;The Elephant in the Room&#8221; will discuss America&#8217;s &#8220;original and most persistent sin, racism.&#8221; The talk will be led by Phillip Jacobs, who previously directed the Washington Employers for Racial Equity.
The majority of the estimated sum, $48,000, is intended to cover speaker fees. Meanwhile, $17,923 is slated to go towards accessibility services such as transcription and sign language interpreters. Another $17,440 will be allocated to technology required for the virtual conference.
Michaels went on to add that the conference allows state employees to “learn more about the lived experiences and challenges of Washingtonians we often don’t reach or hear from,” before also claiming “These are people who regularly face systemic barriers, exclusion from accessing government services, harm from policies, or discrimination in the workplace.”

Marine Charged In Subway Killing
Daniel Penny, the U.S. Marine veteran who restrained a New York homeless man who was threatening people on the subway, has been charged.
Penny is charged with 2nd-degree manslaughter over the death of Jordan Neely and faces up to 15 years in prison. Penny was released on a $100,000 bond after his arraignment on Friday afternoon. The 24-year-old highly decorated Marine veteran turned himself in to New York authorities on Friday morning. His attorney said Penny surrendered with “the sort of dignity and integrity that is characteristic of his history of service to this grateful nation.” A Give Send Go donation page set up in Penny’s name raised <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/givesendgo-campaign-raises-more-than-400k-for-daniel-penny" target="_blank" rel="noopener">more than  $400,000 by Friday afternoon</a>.
Dems Attack Parental Rights
The Democratic Governor of Washington State Jay Inslee <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/unbelievable-ap-reports-trans-minors-protected-from-parents-under-washington-law" target="_blank" rel="noopener">signed</a> a new law that allows licensed shelters to bypass parents when their child seeks transgender medical treatments. Before this bill was signed, shelters and host homes were required to notify parents within 72 hours if a minor came into their care. Now the facilities can bypass parents and instead contact the Department of Children, Youth, and Families.

Natalee Holloway Suspect To Be Extradited To U.S.
The <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/suspect-in-natalee-holloway-disappearance-being-extradited-to-the-united-states-report" target="_blank" rel="noopener">prime suspect in the unsolved 2005 disappearance</a> of American student Natalee Holloway in Aruba will be extradited to the U.S. from Peru. The Peruvian government announced Wednesday that Dutch citizen Joran van der Sloot will be sent to the U.S to face trial on charges stemming from accusations of extorting the Holloway family after their daughter’s disappearance. Holloway was last seen during a trip with classmates to Aruba in 2005. She vanished after a night with friends at a nightclub. She was last seen leaving with van der Sloot, then 18 years old. Years later, van der Sloot was arrested in Peru for the 2010 murder of 21-year-old Stephany Flores, who was killed five years to the day after Holloway’s disappearance. His extradition is solely related to the Holloway case.

Welp, the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/lapdog-media-tracks-down-classified-leaker-democrat-media-complex-in-action" target="_blank" rel="noopener">lapdog media</a> has its latest talking points we&#8217;ll be seeing more of: &#8220;Kids need protection from their parents.&#8221;
On Wednesday, the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/the-poor-the-mentally-ill-the-french-whats-with-the-morons-at-the-associated-press" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Associated Press</a> actually ran a headline, titled “Trans Minors Protected From Parents Under Washington Law.&#8221;
At first glance, one might suspect that was a typo of some sort. The AP might be a leftist rag these days, but even they wouldn&#8217;t be asinine enough to frame a story where parents are the bad guys, you might be thinking.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">

Well, it wasn&#8217;t an error because the lede — the opening sentence of a straight news article that&#8217;s supposed to convey the most important part of that story — doubled down on that twisted language.
&#8220;Minors seeking gender-affirming care in Washington will be protected from the intervention of estranged parents under a measure Gov. Jay Inslee signed into law Tuesday,&#8221; the AP reported.
Of course, that sentence is filled with imprecise language and double-speak.
&#8220;Gender-affirming care&#8221; encompasses child mutilation and confusion. &#8220;Estranged parents&#8221; could include parents who don&#8217;t want their kids to chop off their private parts after being indoctrinated by evil members of society, and carried out by perverted doctors betraying their medical oath.

What the law will do, per the Associated Press, is allow licensed facilities and foster homes to notify Washington State&#8217;s Department of Children, Youth, and Families if a minor comes to said shelters seeking help because their parent won&#8217;t let them undergo sex denialism and gender-rejection efforts.
Then, the state Department of Children, Youth, and Families is mandated to make a “‘good faith attempt&#8217; to notify parents after they are contacted by shelters or host homes and offer services designed to &#8216;resolve the conflict and accomplish a reunification of the family,’” the Associated Press reported. In the interim, children who run away from their homes are allowed to stay at host homes separate from their families.
Democratic Governor Jay Inslee said that the purpose of this bill is to adopt &#8220;a more compassionate, developmentally appropriate, and reasoned approach to support these youth as they access gender-affirming treatment and reproductive health care services.&#8221;
In other words, Inslee wants the state to supersede the parental right of deciding what&#8217;s best for their kids. It isn&#8217;t a stretch to see that the government will next take kids from their homes, under the guise of saying that so-called &#8220;transgender youths&#8221; are being abused by their parents who deny them &#8220;access&#8221; to life-changing procedures.
The Left think parents shouldn&#8217;t have authority over their children, and the AP is all-too-happy to promote that collectivist, anti-family propaganda.

<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/washington" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Washington</a> Democratic Governor Jay Inslee signed a bill into law on Tuesday that stipulates shelters are not required to contact parents if a runaway child is seeking an abortion or <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/transgender-surgery" target="_blank" rel="noopener">transgender procedures</a>. 
The legislation adds abortion and transgender surgeries as “compelling reasons” for licensed shelters and host homes not to notify parents if a runaway child is seeking such procedures. Instead, the shelters and facilities can inform the Department of Children, Youth, and Families. 
 “Therefore, the legislature intends to remove barriers to accessing temporary, licensed shelter accommodations for youth seeking certain protected health care services,” <a href="https://lawfilesext.leg.wa.gov/biennium/2023-24/Pdf/Bills/Senate%20Bills/5599-S.E.pdf?q=20230414051216">the law says</a>. 
“With this bill, Washington leads the way by taking a more compassionate, developmentally appropriate, and reasoned approach to support these youth as they access gender-affirming treatment and reproductive health care services,” Inslee <a href="https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2023/may/9/jay-inslee-signs-bill-letting-state-hide-parents-m/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> when signing the bill. 
The measure was widely criticized by Republicans and other Washington residents who say it will deride parental rights. 
“The extremists have picked their position against WA families and parental rights. Now they can try to defend it. Spoiler: It&#8217;s indefensible,” <a href="https://twitter.com/JimWalshLD19/status/1656077707225202688">said</a> Republican Rep. Jim Walsh. 
Washington Senate Republicans said the bill would allow shelters to “hide” children from their parents. 
“People are overwhelmingly against SB 5599, including many LGBT+ folks. Democrats pass it anyway, allowing youth shelters to hide kids seeking ‘gender-affirming care’ from their parents,” the caucus <a href="https://twitter.com/WashingtonSRC/status/1654486867394326531" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> on May 5. 
Other &#8220;compelling reasons&#8221; to withhold information from parents under the new law include cases of suspected physical or sexual abuse. 
The bill was sponsored by state Sen. <a href="https://senatedemocrats.wa.gov/liias/biography/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Marko Liias</a>, a Democrat who represents an area just north of Seattle and is co-chair of the LGBTQ caucus. “Every child – including our trans youth – deserves to be safe at home. In a perfect world, that is the case, but unfortunately, that is not the reality,” Liias <a href="https://senatedemocrats.wa.gov/liias/2023/05/09/legislation-to-protect-trans-youth-seeking-life-saving-care-signed-into-law/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> in a press release. “This legislation affirms our commitment to ensuring children have a safe and stable place to go when they are not welcome at home.”

The legislation easily <a href="https://app.leg.wa.gov/billsummary?BillNumber=5599&amp;Initiative=false&amp;Year=2023" target="_blank" rel="noopener">made</a> it through the Democrat-controlled legislature, passing the Senate 29-20 and the House 57-39. 
The law represents the growing gap between red and blue states, as Republican-led states move to ban life-altering trans procedures on minors while Democrat-led states push to enshrine access to such procedures into law.

Washington To Allow Shelters To Keep Runaway Children From Parents If Child Seeking Transgender Surgery, Abortion

Politics

On Thursday, the state of Washington passed five laws to expand access to and enhance protections for both abortions and gender transition procedures.
Washington Governor Jay Inslee, a Democrat, claimed in his <a href="https://medium.com/wagovernor/inslee-signs-laws-to-protect-reproductive-health-and-gender-affirming-care-db8917021cd7" target="_blank" rel="noopener">blog</a> that abortions and gender transitioning constituted freedom.
“The right of choice is an issue of freedom,” stated Inslee. “Health care must remain the providence [sic] of individual Washingtonians. These laws will keep the tentacles of oppressive and overreaching states out of Washington.”
One of the bills, <a href="https://app.leg.wa.gov/billsummary?BillNumber=5768&amp;Year=2023&amp;Initiative=false" target="_blank" rel="noopener">SB 5768</a> from Democratic Senate President Pro Tempore Karen Keiser, authorized the Washington Department of Corrections to distribute a three-year supply, 30,000 doses, of mifepristone — the abortion drug that the governor <a href="https://www.governor.wa.gov/news-media/inslee-announces-unprecedented-state-purchase-three-year-supply-mifepristone%23:~:text=Jay%2520Inslee%2520today%2520announced%2520that,purchase%2520the%2520medication%2520last%2520month." target="_blank" rel="noopener">purchased</a> last month. Inslee managed to secure the abortion drug three days before the District Court for the Northern District of Texas ordered the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to revoke authorization of the drug.
Upon Senate passage of the bill earlier this month, Keiser touted mifepristone’s safety and efficacy. However, concerns continue to exist over the safety of the drug. 22 attorneys general <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/22-attorneys-general-urge-fda-to-reverse-abortion-pill-decision" target="_blank" rel="noopener">petitioned</a> the FDA in a letter earlier this year to reverse its decision allowing retail pharmacies to dispense abortion pills.

The concerns over the abortion drug’s safety predate increased focus brought on by the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade last summer. In 2021, over 100 U.S. senators and congressmen <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/more-than-100-legislators-call-on-fda-to-enforce-safety-measures-for-chemical-abortions" target="_blank" rel="noopener">petitioned</a> the FDA to enforce safety precautions for its distribution after the agency overturned a Trump-era rule requiring women to obtain mifepristone in person from a medical provider.
In February, Texas Rep. August Pfluger and Mississippi Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith, both Republicans, <a href="https://thehill.com/opinion/congress-blog/3876301-its-time-to-rein-in-dangerous-chemical-abortion-drugs/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">claimed</a> that reporting requirements on the safety and efficacy of mifepristone are weak, and that at least dozens of deaths and hundreds of life-threatening complications have arisen from mifepristone. Pfluger and Hyde-Smith accused the FDA of abusing pathways allowing the expedited approval of drugs by <a href="https://www.gao.gov/assets/gao-08-751.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">categorizing</a> pregnancy as an “illness” and mifepristone as a “meaningful therapeutic benefit.”

In another bill signed into Washington law, <a href="https://app.leg.wa.gov/billsummary?BillNumber=1469&amp;Initiative=false&amp;Year=2023" target="_blank" rel="noopener">HB 1469</a> by Democratic State Rep.

The law prohibits compliance with other states’ subpoenas, prevents compliance with other states’ investigations, and bans extraditions for violators of other states’ abortion and gender transitioning laws.
Hansen’s bill, also called the “Shield Law,” has been in the works ever since the Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization decision last summer.

Washington State Passes Five Laws Expanding Access And Protections For Abortions, Gender Transitions

<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/washington" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Washington</a> state is facing at least two lawsuits from gun rights groups after Democratic Governor <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/jay-inslee" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jay Inslee</a> signed into law a ban on so-called assault weapons on Tuesday.
Inslee signed into law three gun control bills. One of those pieces of legislation, House Bill 1240, took effect immediately and banned the manufacturing and sale of dozens of types of semiautomatic rifles.
“This new law is blatantly unconstitutional. The Supreme Court long-ago ruled that states cannot ban firearms that are in common use,” Aoibheann Cline, director of the NRA’s lobbying operations in Washington state, told <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/nra-sues-democrat-governor-washington-states-new-blatantly-unconstitutional-gun-ban" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Fox News</a>.
Cline called H.B. 1240 the “worst of such schemes in the country” that bans “nearly every modern semiautomatic rifle.”
“AR-15-style firearms are the most popular rifles in America. In fact, AR-15s outsell America’s most popular truck, the Ford F-150, and there are more privately owned AR-15-style firearms than subscribers to all daily newspapers nationwide, combined,” Cline said.
“It’s outrageous that states continue to pass these unconstitutional bans. But rest assured, the NRA will continue to fight each one,” Cline said. “[The] people of Washington deserve better.”
Inslee signed two other pieces of gun control legislation on Tuesday alongside the extensive ban targeting semiautomatic rifles: H.B. 1143 and Senate Bill 5078. H.B. 1143 mandates that all new gun owners take a safety and training course that teaches how to properly store firearms and about Washington’s self-defense laws. Senate Bill 5078 gives Washington’s attorney general the authority to punish gun manufacturers for criminal misuse of their product.
Inslee <a href="https://tvw.org/video/governor-jay-inslee-bill-signing-2023041342/?eventID=2023041342" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> the bill signing marked a “monumental day” of victories against “weapons of war” and gun manufacturers.

“It is a victory over weapons of war, to not expose children for weapons of war in our streets and in our classrooms. It is a victory against impetuous gun violence for people who could buy a gun and then create violence without a second thought. It is a victory over irresponsible gun manufacturers that have been responsible for gun violence,” Inslee said.
Inslee’s laws are facing another legal challenge from the Second Amendment Foundation, which also filed a lawsuit against the state on Tuesday.
“The state has enacted a flat prohibition on the manufacture, sale, import and distribution of many types of firearms, inaccurately labeled as ‘assault weapons,’ which are owned by millions of ordinary citizens across the country,” Second Amendment Foundation founder and executive vice president Alan Gottlieb <a href="https://www.king5.com/article/news/politics/state-politics/washington-ban-sale-assault-weapons/281-7bee1dd8-8a96-4930-a02f-9d87c148591d" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> in a statement. “In the process, the state has criminalized a common and important means of self-defense, the modern semiautomatic rifle. The state has put politics ahead of constitutional rights, and is penalizing law-abiding citizens while this legislation does nothing to arrest and prosecute criminals who misuse firearms in defiance of all existing gun control laws. It is absurd.”

A large school district in Washington has canceled music lessons for fourth graders as the school board director linked teaching children to play instruments to racism, suggesting that music lessons could “inculcate and allow white supremacy culture to continue to be propagated and cause significant institutional violence.”
The comments, made by school board director Scott Clifthorne, came as the school discussed ways to save money for the school. By eliminating band and orchestra for fourth and fifth grade, the Olympia School District would <a href="https://www.theolympian.com/news/local/education/article274517106.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">save</a> $530,000; the district agreed to keep the fifth-grade programs.
&#8220;We’re a school district that lives in … is entrenched in … is surrounded by white supremacy culture. And that’s a real thing,&#8221; Clifthorne told parents.
&#8220;There’s nothing about strings or wind instrumental music that is intrinsically white supremacist,” he said. “However, the ways in which it is and the ways in which all of our institutions, not just schools — local government, state government, churches or neighborhoods — inculcate and allow white supremacy culture to continue to be propagated and cause significant institutional violence are things that we have to think about carefully as a community.”
Many parents were not pleased with Clifthorne&#8217;s comments.
“This type of language from this particular board director and the entire board is not surprising at all,” Alesha Perkins, a parent in the district, <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/media/washington-school-board-called-absurdity-cutting-music-classes-white-supremacy" target="_blank" rel="noopener">told</a> “Fox and Friends First.” “This is actually par for the course. The issue is we are having such a catastrophic budget crisis right now that they’re having to cut programs. And so what has happened is this program has been deemed ‘inequitable.’ And in a previous comment, the director of elementary education stated that not only is this program ‘inequitable,’ but when she heard the word ‘tradition of excellence,’ which was used to describe our music programs, she said that the word ‘tradition’ actually translated to her to mean systemic discrimination.”
“We have reached a level of absurdity in our school district, among our school board and our leadership that is just hard to ignore at this point,” she continued. “We are losing students in huge numbers. I&#8217;m not talking about a handful of students. &#8216;I&#8217;m talking hundreds and hundreds of students that are exiting the district, and they are virtually all citing these reasons. You cannot sustain a school district with a mass exodus of students.”

A Washington state middle school was investigated for having students and staff play a licking game that parents described as &#8220;highly vile.&#8221;
Desert Hills Middle School in Kennewick had minor students and adult teachers compete to lick marshmallow cream off either side of two clear plexiglass panes, a video of the incident shows. The game was held at a school pep rally on March 31.
The video shows multiple staffers and students aggressively licking up the four lines of cream sometimes with their tongues in the same spots on opposite sides of the plexiglass. At one point, an adult holds a child&#8217;s head to the glass while licking the other side. Toward the end of the video, one staffer appears to be licking the glass in a way that one parent described as &#8220;sensual.&#8221;
Students can be heard screaming, &#8220;Ew,&#8221; &#8220;That&#8217;s actually so disgusting,&#8221; &#8220;I&#8217;m going to throw up,&#8221; &#8220;That’s so gross,&#8221; &#8220;What the heck?&#8221; and &#8220;Who thought that this was a good idea?&#8221;

Mother Megan Sa&#8217;s daughter showed her the video, and Sa posted it to Facebook.
&#8220;In my opinion, we do not send our children to school to be exposed to highly sexualized behavior by adults,&#8221; Sa <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/media/washington-state-middle-school-blasted-highly-vile-licking-game-between-staff-students" target="_blank" rel="noopener">told</a> Fox News. &#8220;We send them to school to learn and for them to socialize with other people their ages.&#8221;
&#8220;They shouldn’t have to sit in a gym for a school assembly and wonder, ‘What is going on?’ Schools should be a safe place for children to go and this despicable display of adult behavior was hard to watch,&#8221; the mother said.
The mom said that the principal could be seen in the video laughing and filming the scene with his phone.

The school district opened an investigation into the incident.
Superintendent Dr. Traci Pierce said in a statement to families on Friday that the investigation has concluded. She called the incident &#8220;not an appropriate activity.&#8221;
&#8220;During the activity, some students felt very uncomfortable, and the activity was highly disturbing for some students, parents, families, and community members to watch on video,&#8221; Pierce said. &#8220;This activity does not have district approval and will never be repeated in the future.&#8221;
However, she added that &#8220;the intent of the activity was innocent and not ill-intended.&#8221;
&#8220;There is zero evidence to suggest or support that this was in any way ‘grooming’ activity on the part of organizers or participants,&#8221; Pierce said. &#8220;That being said, the fact that the activity was planned, occurred, and not stopped, shows a lack of sound discernment and good judgment, and the activity is not aligned with district expectations.&#8221;
Principal Casey Gant issued an apology for the activity in a statement to parents.
&#8220;On behalf of Desert Hills Middle School, I would like to apologize for the activity that took place during our recent assembly,&#8221; Gant said. &#8220;As building principal, I take ownership for the events that occur in my school, and I recognize the impact that this situation has had on our school community.&#8221;
&#8220;I am committed to the safety of our students and staff and will ensure that all future activities meet the highest professional standards and adhere to district policy,&#8221; Gant added. &#8220;Again, I apologize that this incident occurred and for the negativity brought to the Desert Hills community.&#8221;
Sa, the mother who initially brought attention to the video, said she is not satisfied with the principal&#8217;s apology, especially since no staffers were suspended or terminated.
However, contacted for comment, the school district told The Daily Wire it is &#8220;taking corrective actions to address this incident.&#8221;

Democrats in <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/washington" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Washington</a> state have passed a new law that would allow shelters that take in runaway children to not notify the parents if the child is seeking <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/transgender-surgery" target="_blank" rel="noopener">sex change procedures</a> or an <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/abortion" target="_blank" rel="noopener">abortion</a>. 
The bill, which passed the Democrat-controlled House on Wednesday by a vote of 57-39, had previously passed in the state Senate, meaning it could soon head to the desk of Democratic Gov. Jay Inslee. Before that, the state Senate needs to vote on an <a href="https://mynorthwest.com/3874975/minors-seeking-gender-affirming-treatment-shelter-without-parents-knowledge-bill/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">amendment</a> that the House added. 
The bill adds text to Washington state law meaning that “a minor is seeking or receiving protected health care services” including “gender-affirming care” and “reproductive health care” can be a “compelling reason” for shelters to not notify parents, but instead notify the Washington Department of Children, Youth, and Families (DCYF). An amendment added in the House gives the DCYF the ability to make the decision whether or not to contact the parents of the runaway child.
“Therefore, the legislature intends to remove barriers to accessing temporary, licensed shelter accommodations for youth seeking certain protected health care services,” <a href="https://lawfilesext.leg.wa.gov/biennium/2023-24/Pdf/Bills/Senate%20Bills/5599-S.E.pdf?q=20230414051216">the bill reads</a>. 
The bill was sponsored by state Sen. <a href="https://senatedemocrats.wa.gov/liias/biography/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Marko Liias</a>, a Democrat who represents an area just north of Seattle and is co-chair of the LGBTQ caucus. “This legislation ensures that our trans youth have safe options and access to secure, stable shelter when they may not be welcome at home,” Liias claimed.

Republicans at the state House, who all voted against the bill, said that it represented a huge erosion of parental rights. 
“These are pre-political rights upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court multiple times. The due process clause of the Fourteenth Amendment secures the rights this bill seeks to eliminate. The state has no legitimate authority to get between moms and dads – who are providing a safe home – and their children. Period,” said Rep. Travis Couture (R-Allyn). 
Rep. Jim Walsh, a Republican from Aberdeen, said the bill was an “attack on parents&#8217; rights and families.”

“Among its many flaws, the bill assumes families that don&#8217;t &#8216;affirm&#8217; a child&#8217;s short-term desires are being abusive. Wrong!

Democrats in Washington, like other blue states, have continued to push to enshrine into law access to sex change surgeries and abortion, as Republicans in other states have moved to ban the life-altering procedures for minors.

Washington House Passes Bill Allowing No Parental Notification Of Runaways If Child Seeking Abortion, Sex Change

<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/james-okeefe" target="_blank" rel="noopener">James O&#8217;Keefe</a> released a video Thursday evening in which two female inmates at the Washington State Correctional Center for Women (WCCW) discuss male inmates allegedly abusing the system by claiming to be transgender.
O&#8217;Keefe said that WCCW has been &#8220;the tip of the spear with inclusivity in the prison system&#8221; as he went on to explain that OMG News went to great lengths to protect the identities of the two women by significantly altering their voices and blurring out their faces.
The video identified the inmates as &#8220;Inmate #1&#8221; and &#8220;Inmate #2,&#8221; and it was not clear how or when the interview was conducted.
&#8220;So, we have men rapists, men murderers, child rapists, men who have killed women and are in prison for raping and killing women who get put in our rooms,&#8221; Inmate #1 claimed. &#8220;Imagine coming into your room one day and you’re in closed custody and you turn around and there is a man standing there peeing in the toilet because you have the bathroom in your room in CCU. There is nothing you can do!&#8221;
&#8220;I know there&#8217;s some having sex with women — there was some, like, assaulting, but no one reported it,&#8221; Inmate #1 said.
&#8220;Some of these men are not confused, they&#8217;re just manipulating the system. It&#8217;s not equal, because we don&#8217;t get the same care and treatment that the trans get in here,&#8221; Inmate #1 continued. &#8220;They cater to the trans community. All you have to do is say that you are a woman, that you now, when you&#8217;re in county, say that you identify as a woman, and you can come straight to here from county. The guys don&#8217;t even have to go to the men&#8217;s prison first.&#8221;
Inmate #1 said that some of the men who were getting put in the prison by claiming that they were transgender were doing so just so they could have sex with female inmates. &#8220;There&#8217;s nothing you can do but say you&#8217;re going to kill yourself and then go down to the crazy unit to get out of that room,&#8221; Inmate #1 said. &#8220;And if you refuse to go back in there, you get a major, you get in trouble. I told all this to the assistant secretary.&#8221;
Inmate #2 said that normally, in correctional institutions, people are segregated, like &#8220;sex offenders, usually sex offenders are not in general population, they&#8217;re always in the population of their own.&#8221;
&#8220;My safety is now in jeopardy because I cannot voice my freedom of speech, but that doesn&#8217;t apply anymore because now they&#8217;re implementing this new gender equality role that forces us to conform to what they want us to believe in about the transgenders,&#8221; Inmate #2 said. &#8220;I&#8217;ve heard some of these men talk about how they would want to get a girl pregnant so that the girl could form a lawsuit against WCCW and say that he raped her and he&#8217;s willing to go along with it. He&#8217;s pretty much the mastermind behind his own scandal.&#8221;
&#8220;And it&#8217;s been a few of them who&#8217;ve sat and talked about these certain types of things to do in order to get a — so, the slang word that they&#8217;re calling it is &#8216;million dollar baby.’ A &#8216;million dollar baby&#8217; play,&#8221; Inmate #2 said. &#8220;That&#8217;s the, that&#8217;s the slang term that they&#8217;re using.&#8221;
<a class="c-link c-link--focus-visible" href="https://onelink.to/dwapp" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-stringify-link="https://onelink.to/dwapp" data-sk="tooltip_parent" aria-describedby="sk-tooltip-22625">CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILY WIRE APP</a>
&#8220;A lot of the men in the men&#8217;s institution are literally coming up with strategies in order to conform to the transgender thing,&#8221; Inmate #2 said. &#8220;They&#8217;re taking all the necessary steps that they have to in order to get on the applications and the lists and things like that to go through the whole process just to get here, just to do that. We don&#8217;t have a voice, we don&#8217;t have a leg to stand on. Any time we voice these types of things, we are met with ridicule, targeting, bias, punishments, solitary confinement.&#8221;
Inmate #2 concluded by saying that WCCW has poor medical services and that the women have a much harder time getting their medical needs met than transgender people do.

A federal judge in <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/texas" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Texas</a> moved to suspend the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/fda" target="_blank" rel="noopener">FDA</a>’s approval of the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/abortion" target="_blank" rel="noopener">abortion</a> pill mifepristone, while another federal judge in <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/washington" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Washington</a> released a conflicting ruling that keeps the pill widely available. 
The rulings on the abortion pill, which is used to end the life of an unborn child in about half of all abortions, could be headed to the Supreme Court even as the Biden administration plans to appeal the Texas judge’s ruling. In his ruling, U.S. District Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk said that the FDA had moved too quickly to approve the chemical abortion pill without sufficient testing. 
“Simply put, FDA built on its already-suspect 2000 Approval by removing even more restrictions related to chemical abortion drugs that were present during the final phase of the investigation. And it did so by relying on studies that included the very conditions FDA refused to adopt,” the judge <a href="https://adfmedialegalfiles.blob.core.windows.net/files/AHM-MPI-Decision.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a>. 
The Biden administration will have a week to appeal the decision, which sided in favor of the Alliance of Hippocratic Medicine and other pro-life groups who were represented by lawyers with the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/alliance-defending-freedom-adf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Alliance Defending Freedom</a>. 
“Pregnancy is not an illness, and chemical abortion drugs don’t provide a therapeutic benefit—they can pose serious and life-threatening complications to the mother, in addition to ending a baby’s life. The FDA never had the authority to approve these hazardous drugs and remove important safeguards,” <a href="https://adfmedia.org/press-release/court-halts-fdas-illegal-approval-chemical-abortion-drugs" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> ADF Senior Counsel Erik Baptist. 
The decision was widely praised by pro-life groups.
“The abortion pill destroys a growing human being. The drug kills the preborn child by starving him or her of the vital nutrients needed to grow. This decision restricting the abortion pill will save children from the violence of chemical abortion and will allow them to enjoy their constitutional right to be born and live,” said Lila Rose, the founder and president of Live Action. 
However, Kacsmaryk’s decision became legally murky almost immediately as U.S. District Judge Thomas O. Rice ruled the FDA must still allow the drug in 17 Democratic-led states that had brought a lawsuit concerning the chemical abortions.

In the meantime, President Joe Biden has promised to fight the Texas ruling. &#8220;My administration will fight this ruling,&#8221; Biden claimed.  &#8220;The lawsuit, and this ruling, is another unprecedented step in taking away basic freedoms from women and putting their health at risk.&#8221;
