Lee Smith in Tablet chronicles the discovery of two apparent Pakistanis (probably working for Iranian intelligence) who spent nearly two years in a Washington, D.C. building literally filled with U.S. law enforcement employees from multiple agencies. Which is the more disturbing: the men’s possible mission as an advance party for assassins, or the fact that it took a U.S. postal agent to uncover their plot?
Radical Transgenderism Takes Another Hit
The 11,000-member American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) – which includes hundreds of Canadian members – “has come out unequivocally against ‘gender-affirming’ surgeries in adolescents under age 19,” writes Leor Sapir in City Journal. The ASPS has also joined a growing number of international organizations in warning about the potential physical and psychological damage to children and teens of puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones.
[Editor’s note: Two days after the ASPS’s announcement, the American Medical Association announces it now agrees that gender-altering “surgical interventions in minors should be generally deferred to adulthood.”]
