Robin Westman: The transgender shooter who opened fire on Minneapolis church - "A transgender gunman who killed two children after opening fire during a Catholic school church service scrawled “Jew gas” and “for the children” on weapons used in the attack. Robin Westman, formerly known as Robert, fired dozens of rounds of bullets through the stained glass windows of Annunciation Catholic Church in Minneapolis, Minnesota, where children from the adjacent school were attending a start-of-term Mass... The notebook reveals the gunman’s Left-wing leanings and anti-Semitism, featuring a transgender pride sticker that included an AK-47 and “Defend Equality” printed across the bottom. In one entry, he wrote that he would probably target “Zionist Jews” if he carried out a racially motivated attack before adding “free Palestine” among a barrage of anti-Semitic remarks. Westman also wrote that he “hates fascism” and mused about killing Elon Musk and Donald Trump “or some significant exec”... Frantic notes written on the weapon’s magazines read “kill Donald Trump” and “where is your God”...

Instead, because it's their team they want to sweep the details under the rug. If the FBI director was a liberal they probably wouldn't even be forced to admit it. They really swept the last trans shooting under the rug, I actually don't even think the MSM said they were transgender"

The truth about the trans school shooter | The Spectator - "True, one of the earliest school shooters, Brenda Spencer, who shot up a playground in San Diego in 1979, was a girl – famously providing the peg for the Boomtown Rats’ hit ‘I Don’t Like Mondays’. But that was a long time ago. Since, American mass shooters have been overwhelmingly male. One would expect, then, that when the culprit in a high-profile attack on young children is a woman, that anomaly would merit journalistic remark. After all, following these baffling bursts of nihilistic animosity, there’s little enough to say. Yet after ‘Robin’ Westman opened fire on kids at mass in a Catholic school in Minneapolis last week, segments of the media were conspicuously incurious about how ‘she’ came to be consumed by such commonly masculine rage. This grotesque incident was, as usual, pointless – and as a longtime commentator on such shootings, I despair that there are so few, if any, productive observations to advance. While still exhibiting the classic, seemingly antithetical traits of grandiosity and self-loathing, this killer was, to me, uniquely repulsive. Craving distraction, then, I’ve idly kept track of which media outlets have perversely and pugnaciously referred to Robin (né Robert) Westman as female. Naturally, for the New York Times the transgender killer is ‘she’ or ‘Ms Westman’. The BBC has also followed its guidelines to ‘generally use the term and pronoun preferred by the person in question’ – even if the ‘person in question’ committed suicide on site and is no longer in a position to have preferences of any kind. When Senator Amy Klobuchar bewailed that ‘this horrific offender… that he… it was all-purpose hate, right?’ and called Westman ‘a madman’, the interviewer from America’s National Public Radio appended: ‘And just a point of clarification, Sen Klobuchar referenced the shooter as “he”. Although police have identified a suspect, it’s still unclear at this time what that person’s gender is or how they identify’ [italics mine]. Yet the shooter having been born male had already been retrieved from the public record. The sheep-in–conservative-clothing commentator on the PBS NewsHour, David Brooks, repeatedly referred to Westman as female – no big surprise. But when a Wall Street Journal editorial also reported that Westman had ‘changed her name from Robert’, my jaw dropped. Even Fox News reported the killer ‘had their name legally changed’ [italics mine]. I have begrudging regard for ABC’s militant neutrality. In fastidiously citing ‘a person’, ‘Westman’ with no title, ‘the shooter’ and ‘the suspect’, the network boycotted pronouns altogether. That takes semantic discipline. But the right-of-centre New York Post’s flat-out ‘he’, ‘him’ and ‘gunman’ is more courageous, not to mention more factually informative. At long last, the Daily Telegraph dared to identify Robin Westman as male – though historically the paper hasn’t covered itself in glory on this matter, having even referred to preposterous, manipulative fake-female criminals such as ‘Isla’ Bryson as ‘she’. For journalists to take a trans-mollycoddling stand in the pronoun wars isn’t merely to default to niceness. Misidentifying the biological sex of figures in news stories is an implicit declaration of support for an incoherent, unhinged ideology. This grammatical loyalty to progressive dogma apparently trumps journalistic integrity – the obligation to report the truth – and even decency... Media kowtowing to trans orthodoxy alienates their mainstream audiences. Incorrect pronouns drive news consumers nuts. Alluding to a burly guy with five o’clock shadow in a pink wig as ‘she’ makes journalists seem like fools, and readers and viewers feel mocked. Even the wussy middle course of calling trans people ‘they’ leads to grammatical confusion. Also last week, the Telegraph reported that another (male) transgender killer, ‘Joanna’ Rowland-Stuart, ‘stabbed their partner to death with a samurai sword’. The following paragraph refers to Joanna’s attack in ‘their Brighton home’. Is that the couple’s home, or only Joanna’s? Worse, in reporting the same story, the BBC ran the headline ‘Wife killed husband with samurai sword’ and began the article: ‘A woman killed her husband’ – when in fact a man stabbed his presumably gay husband 50 times. This is farce. In that case, the court has deemed the killer Joanna ‘unfit to plead’, meaning he’s bonkers. Is a pattern developing? Despite multiple cases of trans murderers whose sanity was dubious, I’d not claim, as some conservative pundits, do that trans people are grossly overrepresented in the depressingly long roster of American mass murderers. Yet people who are mentally ill in other respects are consistently the most susceptible to deciding they were ‘born in the wrong body’. The trans cult attracts the insecure, the lost and ungrounded; the unstable, disturbed and, yes, outright deranged. We’ve turned confusion about which sex you are into a reasonable, dare I say normal, source of distress that demands redress, and not by curing a delusion but encouraging it. Declaring you’re trans is a moment of self-discovery that we celebrate for its ‘authenticity’ and ‘bravery’. In the olden days of Psycho, a man wearing women’s clothing sent an ominous signal that there’s something off about this guy. Yet Robin Westman’s transgenderism was so socially acceptable that it functioned as disguise – cloaking a manic mishmash of malice towards Jews, children, blacks, Hispanics, Christians, Donald Trump, doubtless everyone else and, not to forget, himself. Rather than signal there’s something wrong here, Westman dressing as a woman actually camouflaged the warning signs that the young man was out of his tiny mind. The seminal mistake in the progression of this demented transgender movement was no longer recognising gender dysphoria as a mental disorder."

Calls for ABC reporter to be fired over misleading report linking Minneapolis gunman to Trump - "An ABC reporter is facing calls to be fired for misleadingly linking Minneapolis shooter to Donald Trump. Chief Investigative Reporter Aaron Katersky was reporting on the events inside the Annunciation Catholic School on Wednesday where Robin Westman killed two kids... 'There are also photos of the weapons, and they include all sorts of writings: the names of past mass shooters, criticism of Israel, the name of President Trump written on the guns. 'There are also racial slurs, nihilistic statements, all painting the picture of a disturbed individual who carried out this mass shooting on the first week of school at the Annunciation church in Minneapolis.' His failure to mention the shooter's disdain for Trump while mentioning the commander-in-chief has caused an outcry online, with the President's son even making comment... Vince Coglianese, Daily Caller editor, added: 'ABC reporter refers to 'the name of President Trump written on the guns' without mentioning that the message was 'k*ll Donald Trump.' Fox News' Mary Katherine Ham and her colleague Guy Benson posted: 'So irresponsible. An obvious lie', and 'We call this obfuscation 'anti-journalism'.'"

Minneapolis school shooter Robin Westman confessed he was 'tired of being trans' - "Transgender mass shooter Robin Westman confessed that he “was tired of being trans” and wished he “never brain-washed” himself in a manifesto posted online before he slaughtered two children and wounded 18 more at a Minneapolis church. In a twisted handwritten journal he shared on YouTube before the massacre — much of which is encrypted in a homespun code of Russian Cyrillic script and English words — Westman groaned about his long hair and his decision to transition... Westman, 23, later wrote that he regretted being trans and just wished he were a girl. “I regret being trans.. I wish I was a girl I just know I cannot achieve that body with the technology we have today. I also can’t afford that,” he said. The unhinged shooter also expressed feelings of self-loathing. “I like feeling sexy and cute but my face never matches how I feel. I hate my face… maybe that’s why I like furries so much. You can give yourself a new body and face. I want to be that black face mask on Beyonce’s body lmao!”... The cowardly killings, coupled with the revelation that Westman identified as transgender, reignited a hot-button debate as Minneapolis’ lefty mayor Jacob Frey wagged his finger at news outlets for even reporting it. “I have heard about a whole lot of hate that’s being directed at our trans community,” Frey told reporters... Numerous studies point to a link between transgenderism and mental illness. The Trevor Project’s 2024 US National Survey on the Mental Health of LGBTQ+ Young People reported that 39% of LGBTQ+ young people “seriously considered” suicide in the last year — including a whopping 46% of “transgender and nonbinary” youths. Despite these links and incidents, however, a critical, nationwide debate about the highly controversial topic has never occurred. Westman’s chilling writings revealed his violent fantasies about killing children, including wanting to be the “scary horrible monster standing over those powerless kids.” He also glorifies the Sandy Hook massacre, in which 20 schoolchildren were killed. Westman’s videos, posted hours before the shootings, also show the phrases “kill Donald Trump” and “for the children” scrawled on gun magazines."

EXCLUSIVE: Brazilian Woman Granted Refugee Status in Europe After Facing 25-Year Sentence for ‘Misgendering’ Trans Politician - "Isabella Cêpa is the first person to be recognized as a victim of state persecution for her outspoken opposition to gender identity ideology... Cêpa first came under criminal investigation after she made a social media post about Erika Hilton – a male politician who “identifies” as a woman. Hilton was elected to São Paulo’s municipal government in November of 2020, winning his seat by a landslide that gave him the title of the most voted-for ‘woman’ in Brazil. At the time of his victory, Hilton was celebrated in international media as being a “symbolic triumph” for transgender people. Hilton was amongst the top 10 most-voted for candidates in all of Brazil, and was touted as the “only woman” to make the list... After speaking with police, Cêpa remained unaware of any further developments in her case until June 2022, when a reporter from a major Brazilian newspaper contacted her for comment on an article about the charges. It was only after the article was published that Cêpa discovered she was being charged with five counts of “social racism.” The charge stems from a 2019 decision by Brazil’s Supreme Federal Court, which ruled that discrimination against ‘LGBTQ Community’ constituted a penal offense, and fell under existing race-based protections as a form of “racism.” Prior to pressing charges, the Public Prosecutor had combed through Cêpa’s social media posts to find additional statements that could be perceived as “transphobic.” From the news article, Cêpa discovered that she was facing up to 25 years in prison for the supposed “crime.” In July of 2024, Cêpa was stopped at the Salvador Bahia Airport while attempting to travel to Spain to visit a friend. Federal agents flagged an alert linked to her passport and pulled her aside for further inspection. During the subsequent interview, authorities reportedly determined that her situation could meet the criteria for political persecution. In response, they contacted the airline she had booked with and instructed them not to depart without her on board. An officer then escorted Cêpa onto the plane and advised her against returning to Brazil, marking the beginning of a period of statelessness. In June of 2025, Cêpa formally applied for refugee status. Reduxx has now confirmed that Cêpa has successfully obtained refugee status with the assistance of the European Union Agency for Asylum — making her the first Brazilian citizen to receive this designation for state persecution since 1985. Reduxx is withholding the name of the host country to protect Cêpa’s privacy. Speaking to Reduxx, MATRIA Brazil, a women’s rights organization, welcomed the decision but voiced frustration with the Brazilian government... Cêpa’s successful refugee bid is the first of its kind, and will set a precedent for other individuals facing legal and social repercussions for their gender-critical beliefs. It can now be used as case of reference by any person in the world facing the same kind of persecution. As previously reported by Reduxx, multiple Brazilians have faced criminal charges for statements or commentary deemed “transphobic.” Earlier this year, women’s rights activist Karen Mizuno revealed she had been notified by police that she may face criminal charges after mocking a trans activist who claimed that “archaeologists are transphobic.” Mizuno faces up to three years in prison. In another ongoing case, two staff members from the Federal University of Paraíba are fighting criminal charges for allegedly “misgendering” a transgender student."
The five stages of victory - "Nothing I can say about the violent, fetishistic narcissism at the heart of trans activism is half as persuasive as what trans activists say themselves. Every time they speak, they make it harder for all but the most gender-addled politicians to continue insisting that every “transwoman” is a vulnerable sweetie nobly coping with the tragic, albeit puzzlingly metaphysical, disability of having been born looking exactly like a man... Dozens of open letters call on the government to do something; what precisely, none make clear. They warn of dire harm to “the trans community”, making offensive analogies with racial segregation, police entrapment of gay people and Section 28. It’s hard to remember, as you read, that what’s got the signatories (most of them artists and academics) so exercised is a court saying men with falsified paperwork don’t have the right to enter women’s spaces. Again, all to the good. Academics making illogical and legally illiterate arguments are doing more to convince politicians of the need to slash funding for gender studies and the like than anything else... It’s sobering to realise how fragile our institutions are: both how easily internal activists have subverted them and how cowardly the regulators who should be punishing them are. Theorists of economic development make much of institution-building. Ours, it’s increasingly obvious, are decaying from within... We gave an inch — sometimes under pressure, sometimes believing naively that we were being asked only for a minor, harmless accommodation — and they took ten thousand miles. We won’t be making that mistake again."

Men Can’t Get Pregnant—No Matter What Yale Says - "At some of the most prestigious universities in the world, ideas once confined to fringe online communities and personal blogs are now published in academic journals and treated as legitimate scholarship. These aren’t just strange thought experiments—they’re full-blown efforts to “queer” biology, reimagine pregnancy without women, and reshape medical ethics in ways that downplay the health of unborn children. What used to sound like satire is now shaping how doctors are trained and how healthcare is delivered. I work in reproductive technology, so I read a lot of research on fertility and pregnancy. Most of it is scientific and straightforward. But lately, I’ve been seeing more and more papers that ignore biology entirely in favor of ideology. I wrote previously about one such paper that argued we should question our desire for “normal fetal outcomes” during pregnancy—especially when the pregnant person is taking testosterone as part of a gender transition. The authors actually suggested that helping people have healthy babies might be too focused on “normative bodies,” and that staying on high doses of testosterone while pregnant is fine. It was unscientific and dangerous. But then I came across a paper that took things even further. It’s called “Transfeminist Pregnancy: Reproductive Speculation, Genre, and Desire,” written by Carlo Sariego, a Ph.D. candidate in Yale’s joint program in Sociology and Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies. Sariego, who uses they/them pronouns, does research exploring gender, sexuality, medicine, and science from a sociological point of view. Sariego’s dissertation, titled “Repro Futures: Transgender Reproductive Politics, Justice, and Time in the United States,” is about dismantling the idea of pregnancy itself. In this particular paper, Sariego argues that pregnancy isn’t just something that happens to female bodies, and that trans women—biological males—can also “experience” pregnancy through three ideas: transition, performance, and labor. Sariego claims that only by reimagining pregnancy through a “transfeminist” lens can we move beyond outdated ideas rooted in biology. It may sound bizarre—and it is—but this kind of thinking is becoming more common in academic circles. And because these ideas are starting to affect real-world medicine and policy, they need to be taken seriously—and challenged... This thesis directly challenges basic biology and raises obvious questions about how these ideas could be applied in any real medical setting. The entire paper is speculative and theoretical, making it hard to pin down what exactly Sariego is proposing—or how it might help a physician provide better care to a pregnant patient. Sariego’s challenge to the biological basis of pregnancy ignores the fact that those biological realities form the foundation for how we define women in both medicine and law—and for how we care for pregnant women and their unborn children. Even more concerning is the way Sariego misrepresents existing legal language to support their argument. For example, in the paper’s introduction, Sariego cites Texas House Bill 2690 and claims it defines a woman as “an individual with a uterus, regardless of any gender identity.” But that’s not what the bill actually says... Sariego claims that “anti-trans and gender-critical feminists use reproduction to argue for a ‘sex-based’ theory of pregnancy.” But might that be because pregnancy is sex-based? It requires a female to produce an egg and a male to produce sperm. There’s no way around that. Yet Sariego insists we should reject the idea that “the view that pregnancy is exclusive to female bodies.”... Framing pregnancy through abstract categories like transition, performance, and labor may sound provocative in a gender studies seminar, but in the context of healthcare, it’s meaningless. Cloaked in academic jargon and feminist theory, the paper is not grounded in science, medicine, or the experiences of actual women. By disregarding basic facts about human reproduction, misrepresenting legislative definitions, and appropriating pregnancy as a metaphor, Sariego’s argument not only erodes the concept of womanhood—it disrespects the reality of pregnancy itself. This isn’t scholarship. It’s fiction masquerading as progress. And its publication is a sobering reminder of how far academic discourse can drift when ideology replaces evidence, clarity, and truth."

"Banned from breastfeeding group for objecting to males breastfeeding
Hi everyone, gave birth a few months ago and had some breastfeeding difficulties, so joined a local breastfeeding support group in my city. It's basically a place to go for support with feeding, plus meet other a cuppa and biscuit etc. They also have a FB group. It's become a nice, friendly place to go once every couple of weeks. Recently, a trans-woman (male) has joined the group asking for support because their wife has not long had a baby and the trans-woman is wishing to breastfeed too, apparently through use of hormones and domperidone (?) to stimulate supply (I did not realise this was possible at all) really really object to this person being present in a group of women who are seeking breastfeeding support, trying to come together in their breastfeeding experience and also revealing themselves intimately I told the group leader my concerns and she basically told me to shove it - said that the group is a safe space for everyone and they support all who wish to breastfeed and that I shouldn't come back because I am a bigot am horrified as are the other women, where do we all stand and what would you do?"
