November 20, 2020 (LifeSiteNews) – One of my more unpopular observations is that despite progressives claiming the mantle of diversity and inclusion and conservatives being typecast as bigots, the majority of those who hold socially conservative views are actually non-white (and often immigrants.) This is true in Canada, it is increasingly true in the United States, and in the U.K., the Church of England is attempting to find creative ways to affirm transgenderism while imams demand that public schools stop indoctrinating their children on LGBT issues.

Thus, one of the ironies of identity politics is that LGBT activists and socially conservative minorities often vote for the same politicians in weird coalitions of inconvenience (which, as I noted in The American Conservative last week, could easily collapse if an economically liberal and socially conservative option presented itself.) Progressives who call social conservatives bigots seem unaware that the same accusation applies to their own immigrant voters, who for religious, cultural, or common sense reasons have not followed their largely white counterparts down the rabbit hole.

The clash between the growing intolerance of the LGBT movement and immigrants was encapsulated this week by a bizarre story in the Daily Mail about a vicious assault by a “gang of drunken transgender women who stamped on a teenager outside a Tube station.” The victim of the attack, a 19-year-old named Al Shaheeb, had apparently gotten into a verbal altercation in the early morning hours of June 24, 2018 with three people (the aforementioned “gang of drunken transgender women”). He pointed out to one of them that “You’re not a woman – you need a fanny to be a woman.” In other words, the teen pointed out that the males dressed as women actually have no female genitalia.

In a bombshell press conference, President Trump's legal team has revealed evidence of alleged massive voter fraud in several constituencies key to election victory in 2020.

Appealing to every American, Rudy Giuliani, Team Trump's lead counsel, said: "Joe Biden is in the lead because of invalid and illegal ballots. Give us an opportunity to prove it in court, and we will."

Please SIGN and SHARE this urgent petition asking state legislators, IN EVERY U.S. STATE, not to allow election certification of their state until all of the evidence has been ruled on and every legal challenge exhausted.

This is not about President Trump or former Vice President Biden...at this stage, our republic and the integrity of our elections literally hang in the balance.

The claims of voter fraud made by Team Trump were very alarming, but here are some of the worst:

  • The lack of oversight and security of mail-in ballots;
  • Direction by some election officials to election workers to violate election statutes;
  • The eviction of Republican observers who were kept away from inspecting ballots in some cities;
  • Instances of 'overvoting', where more ballots were cast in some precincts than registered voters;
  • The arrival of thousands of ballots - all marked for Biden - at one count center, in the middle of the night

And, all of the these claims are backed-up by sworn affidavits of people who allegedly witnessed these fraudulent actions take place.

Please CLICK HERE to read LifeSiteNews' article detailing the evidence of alleged voter fraud brought to light by Team Trump.

And please CLICK HERE to see an example of overvoting, also alluded to by Giuiliani as having occurred in Michigan.

Then, please SIGN and SHARE this petition asking ALL 50 STATE LEGISLATURES to wait till all claims of voter fraud have been investigated and litigated before certifying the election results for their states.

Thank you for helping to see that justice is served and that all alleged wrongdoing can be brought to light.

Thank you for helping to secure our republic.

This statement of fact resulted in the teen first getting “drop-kicked,” “booted,” and “stamped” on. After the beating, he was taken to the hospital, and during the recent trial of the transgender thugs, the Inner London Court heard that he had “severe abrasions and a black eye.”

In sentencing the four brawlers — three got a six-month curfew between 9 p.m. and 7 a.m., and the fourth got a conditional two-year discharge — Judge Nigel Seed then “told the gang” that he sympathized with their motives.

“The four of you … were subjected to extremely transphobic and racial abuse. Had it not been for that there would have been no violent disorder,” he stated. “However, that does not excuse what you did, you went too far in your reactions — but, of course, transphobic issues are particularly sensitive … I do not in any way condone your behavior, but I accept that what happened to you at the beginning of the incident was entirely wrong and people like you should not be subject to that abuse in the public domain or anywhere.”

Now, I accept that this teenager spoke the right words but likely at the wrong time and place. Considering the time of the altercation, he was probably drunk. But a British judge telling a group of thugs who kicked and stomped a teen into the pavement for telling biological men that actual women have female genitalia — that is ridiculous. The judge didn’t let them off scot-free, fortunately, but essentially told them that their rage was merely a slight overreaction to something self-evidently offensive.

The reality is that the progressive worldview is more than simply post-Christian now. It is an alternative reality in which one must suspend belief in basic biology, ignore what their eyes tell them, and place their faith in an ever-evolving ideology rather than common sense and the wisdom of millennia. Those arriving in the West are not only meeting different faiths (or, more often, a lack thereof) but an entirely different way of looking at the world. That is far more than a culture shock. These are disagreements about the basic premises not only of society but of fundamental facts about who we are and how we understand being human.

Jonathon’s new podcast, The Van Maren Show, is dedicated to telling the stories of the pro-life and pro-family movement. In his latest episode, he interviews Dr. Ryszard Legutko, a philosopher, politician, and professor from Krakow, Poland, to discuss Legutko’s fight against both communism and liberal democracy.
