🚨WATCH: A Michigan school board member defends his repeated votes against joining the state's governing body for high school sports, pointing to a policy allowing biological males to join girls' teams on a "case-by-case" basis.

"I do not believe a biological male should ever compete against biological females in an all-female sport," Alpena Public Schools Board of Education member AJ MacArthur said Monday. "My vote was cast out of concern and protection for our athletes."

The online space has made Americans more vulnerable than ever. IWF’s report War on America’s Mind shows that we are at a fever pitch on this issue and we must gain the eyes to see it. Thank you @realDailyWire for chatting. @breccastoll 🇺🇸 https://t.co/d1Nayo7i7G

BREAKING:
“@FLOTUS has made history as the first sitting American First Lady to personally broker a ceasefire during an active war.

Amid a humanitarian catastrophe in Oleshky, Ukraine, that has brought unimaginable suffering to the innocent, from the young to the elderly, she has demonstrated what American leadership can achieve when compassion is matched by conviction and action.

Her achievement is an extraordinary reminder that America's greatest strength has never been power alone, but the moral purpose behind its use.

This, combined with her tireless efforts to reunite Ukrainian children with their families, is precisely the kind of consequential humanitarian diplomacy that merits serious consideration for the Nobel Peace Prize.

Peace is not merely the absence of war. It is the preservation of human dignity, the protection of the innocent, and the moral courage to act when others cannot or will not.” @mobbs_mentality

I'm proud to see @IWF continue to amplify detransitioners who are speaking about experiences that many powerful institutions would prefer to ignore.

Through bots, algorithms, disinformation, & emotionally charged content, hostile actors can make fringe beliefs appear mainstream, turn neighbors into enemies, & convince Americans that the very institutions & relationships holding society together are unworthy of their trust.

[Independent Women @IWF]

Among those lending their voices to the initiative are @ChloeCole & @AlexisWilkins. Both women have experienced the destructive power of online falsehoods firsthand.

BREAKING: America is under attack in a war it has failed to name, but no bombs are falling, no troops crossing the border.

Instead, America’s adversaries are exploiting the digital world Americans inhabit every day to manipulate minds, deepen divisions, & turn Americans against one another.

The battlefield isn’t overseas. It’s in our homes, our communities, & in the palms of our hands.
