Alberta’s Danielle Smith says Conservatives Must Embrace Homosexual ‘Couples’ as ‘Nuclear Families’
(LifeSiteNews) — In a wide-ranging interview with Jordan Peterson, a prominent member of Canada’s Conservative Party, Alberta Premier Danielle Smith, insisted that conservatives should “modernize” their view of what the nuclear family looks like, including homosexuals “couples” seeking to obtain children.
Smith, who describes herself as a “conservative libertarian,” asserted that conservatives need to embrace “a broader view of the nuclear family.”
She noted that homosexuals “increasingly are wanting to have children” and claimed that there is “a growing gay conservative movement” that accepts the value of “monogamy” and “free enterprise.” However, the overwhelming majority of homosexuals accept “open” relationships and polygamy, as Smith failed to mention, and homosexual relationships are notorious for their short duration.

“Conservatives have a little bit of a difficult time in modernizing their view of what that nuclear family looks like, but I think the principles are the same,” she added.
Peterson didn’t flinch, and let Smith’s comments on homosexual parenting pass by, then dove back into the conversation when Smith turned to the topics of the bleak hopelessness of the left’s worldview and dangers of “transitioning” for gender-confused youth.
‘The conservative proclivity not to be too judgmental’
Earlier in their discussion, Peterson had noted that “there is a proclivity among conservatives not to be too judgmental with regard to alternative family forms — single mothers, divorced people, and all the variant forms that human intimate relationship might take — and there is a necessity for understanding and tolerance in that regard, but you said earlier that it’s vital for the conservatives … to not forget to bring forward what was vital in the past.”

However, what has been “vital” throughout modern civilization is mothers and fathers raising the children they create together. To do so with a missing mom or dad was always viewed as tragic for the children involved.
Peterson perhaps meant to imply homosexual pairings when he referred to “alternative family forms,” but he failed to mention homosexual “marriages” outright as being among those unable to “bring forward what was vital in the past.”
Destabilizing society
Peterson explained that “the idea that the nuclear family is the minimal viable social unit is probably true. You fragment below that and you probably destabilize your people [and] you also destabilize your society.
However, he was unwilling to challenge Smith’s assertion point-blank about the need for conservatives to expand their view of the nuclear family to include homosexuals seeking to raise children, perhaps demonstrating his own “proclivity … not to be too judgmental with regard to alternative family forms.”
‘Everybody belongs in the conservative movement, but not every idea does’
“Everybody belongs in the conservative movement. But not every idea does,” noted Katy Faust, founder of Them Before Us, the world’s premiere children’s rights organization, after the Republican National Committee revised its official platform, dropping any mention of protecting the definition of marriage.
“Conservatism requires defending the reality that children have a right to life” and “children have a right to their mother and father,” declared Faust, before delivering a powerful punchline: “Thus man/woman marriage is the building block of society.”
‘Conservatism is founded upon timeless principles’
If you support homosexual “marriage,” “it means you’re not a movement conservative,” explained Heritage Foundation President Kevin Roberts, in a 2021 Ethics & Public Policy Center interview.
Conservatism is founded upon timeless principles. “Movement conservatism means ideas tethered to the permanent things, eternal principles that are 100 times more important than any political party or its fortunes in any election cycle,” said Roberts. It recognizes “the existence of an enduring moral order that all of us have imprinted on our souls, or you know, for our atheist friends, on our nature.”
“Same-sex marriage contravenes our understanding of an enduring moral order. Which is at the root of being a movement conservative,” said Roberts.
Roberts made clear that there are “conservatives who are not movement conservatives because they are weak and wrong on the social issues [including] marriage.”
WHO Pushes for New mRNA Bird Flu Vaccines
The World Health Organization has announced a new project to accelerate the development of mRNA vaccines for bird flu, so they can be distributed in poor countries around the world.
The project, which aims to develop mRNA vaccines for the H5N1 strain, will be led by Argentinian company Sinergium Biotech.
Sinergium will establish a “proof of concept” with preclinical models, before sharing its data with manufacturers in poorer countries so they can manufacture vaccines themselves.
The UN health agency said the project would be implemented through the mRNA technology transfer program it established with the UN-backed Medicines Patent Pool (MPP) in 2021, during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The program’s goal was to help low- and middle-income countries to develop and produce their own vaccines using new mRNA technology. It involves 15 manufacturing partners in countries from South Africa to Ukraine and Vietnam.
“This initiative exemplifies why WHO established the mRNA Technology Transfer Program,” said the agency’s chief, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, in a statement.
“When the next pandemic arrives, the world will be better prepared to mount a more effective and more equitable response.”
Meanwhile, a new study has shown that people who received an mRNA COVID vaccine are at a 620% increased risk of myocarditis and a 175% increased risk of pericarditis.
Researchers in South Korea looked at health data for over nine million South Koreans, and found that those who received mRNA vaccinations for COVID were a significantly elevated risk for a variety of cardiac and neurological conditions.
As well as the significant increases in risk for myo- and pericarditis given above, individuals who received an mRNA vaccination were at 62% increased risk for Guillain-Barré syndrome, a rare neurological condition.
There was also a 16% increased risk of the most common form of lupus and a 58% risk of bullous pemphigoid, a blistering skin condition. Booster shots were associated with increased risks of autoimmune conditions such as alopecia areata (hair loss), psoriasis and rheumatoid arthritis.
Another South Korean study recently found significant increases in the risk of Alzheimer’s disease and cognitive impairment in individuals given mRNA COVID vaccines.
Women’s Competitive Cycling Destroyed by Transgenders after Three Male ‘Transwomen’ Take Top Spots at Washington’s Marymoor Grand Prix Bike Race
A triplet of men who identify as “transwomen” “won” the recent Marymoor Grand Prix bike race at the Jerry Baker Memorial Velodrome in Redmond, Wash., thanks to the venue’s strict “no bullying” policy.
“Bullying,” in this context, means excluding biological males from the all-female race even though they are not females but simply identify as such within the specially protected LGBTQ+ classification system for sexual deviancy.
According to reports, the Jerry Baker Memorial Velodrome has been hosting controversial sports events for years that allow “transwomen” to participate in all sorts of female sports based on their self-chosen “gender identities.”
At the recent Grand Prix, at least three men were present in the female category during the women’s Madison race, a high-speed, two-person relay race. The race involves one partner from each team starting while the “resting” partner pedals slowly along the top of the track.
“Partners exchange positions by pulling even with each other and then relaying or ‘slinging’ the incoming partner into the race,” reported En-Volve.com about how the race works.
(Related: Many female athletes are speaking out against the “transwomen” takeover of their sports but nobody seems to care.)
UCI governing body for cycling banned transgender athletes in 2023
The three men who participated in the Madison race as “transwomen” and won include:
1) “Jenna” Lingwood, born as James, the women’s masters 40+ national cyclocross champion who placed first
2) Jordan Lothrop, a cyclist from Canada who had been racing with men as recently as 2023, who placed second
3) Eva Lin, born as Henry, who used to race for San Jose State University’s (SJSU) men’s team, who placed third
“Teams that had one male and one female went 1-2-3 in the women’s Madison at the Marymoor Grand Prix,” wrote a women’s rights advocate on X in jest about the “victories.” “I wonder what gave those teams an edge over the 100% female teams?”
Note that in July of 2023, Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI), the world governing body for cycling, banned all transgender athletes from participating in any of their events that have already gone through male puberty. UCI’s previous barriers, which included testosterone level restrictions, were deemed as not “sufficient to completely eliminate the benefits of testosterone during puberty in men,” according to a statement from the group.
“Given the current state of scientific knowledge, it is also impossible to rule out the possibility that biomechanical factors such as the shape and arrangement of the bones in their limbs may constitute a lasting advantage for female transgender athletes,” UCI further said.
UCI president David Lappartient added that his governing body has a “duty to guarantee, above all, equal opportunities” for all cycling competitors, which means keeping men out of women’s races.
“It is this imperative that led the UCI to conclude that, given the current state of scientific knowledge does not guarantee such equality of opportunity between transgender female athletes and cisgender female participants, it was not possible, as a precautionary measure, to authorize the former to race in the female categories,” Lappartient said.
Two months prior to UCI’s decision to ban transgender athletes, British Cycling introduced its own new policy creating a third “open” category of cycling in which people of any gender identity and sex are allow to compete.
“The female category would be restricted only to biological women, including those who identified as transgender, but who had yet to undertake hormone therapy,” reports explain.
“However, as noted by the Independent Council on Women’s Sports, USA Cycling has not adopted these new, stricter policies that prevent biological males from competing with and beating women and girls.”

Group asks House Speaker to investigate Whether Democrats used 25th Amendment Threat to Force Biden out of Presidential Race
After repeatedly insisting that he would remain in the race for president after his horrifying debate performance, why did Joe Biden suddenly have a change of heart and withdraw his candidacy with little fanfare? Some people are speculating that he may have been forced out by his own party in a desperate bid to hold onto their chances of keeping the White House under their control, and one conservative group has implored lawmakers to investigate the possibility.
The opposition research firm The American Accountability Foundation has sent a letter to House Speaker Mike Johnson asking the House Judiciary and Oversight committees to find out whether Democrats threatened the elderly president with the 25th Amendment to get him to step aside.
The letter refers to an exclusive report by the New York Post based on a source close to the Biden family that says that Democratic Party operatives at the “very highest levels” threatened to remove the president from office using the powers of the 25th amendment in what they described as a “palace coup.”
The 25th Amendment stipulates that if the vice president and a majority of the president’s cabinet deem the president incapable of carrying out his duties, they can force him to step down and replace him with the vice president. Although there is a mechanism in place for the president to challenge such a move, he would need a two-thirds majority in both chambers of Congress to remain in office.
This means that if Vice President Harris could get eight cabinet members to support such a move, they could give Biden an ultimatum that would force him to not only end his campaign but also endorse her candidacy or face the possibility of being forcibly removed from office and damaging his legacy.
According to the insider, Biden was aware that they were trying to push him out but fought it at every chance and displayed “anger, paranoia and frustration” as his party continued to pressure him to step aside. The source even said that letting him debate Trump was part of their strategy as they knew he would not fare well and his performance would convince other Democrats not to let him run for president.
The letter states that the president’s own actions lend credence to the idea of such a “palace coup” given the fact that he said on numerous occasions in multiple interviews that he would not be dropping out of the race. When he finally did announce he was no longer running, the announcement was quietly posted on X on a Sunday afternoon without warning his inner circle beforehand, and he disappeared from public view for the following two days – something that they believe “reinforces that this was a hastily conceived withdraw likely forced by external pressure.”
Threatening Biden with 25th Amendment amounts to extortion, group says
The American Accountability Foundation noted in its letter that if this is what happened, it would be considered extortion, stating: “Such a demand by the Vice President, and any supporters in the cabinet, would have unquestionably been extortion.”
“If the Vice President and members of the cabinet pressured President Biden to suspend his campaign under the threat of invoking the twenty-fifth amendment, it would represent one of the most consequential seizures of power in American government history.”
Former White House Press Secretary Ari Fleischer also believes he was forced out, telling Fox News: “Joe Biden was pressured out by the Democratic power brokers. They loved him until they concluded they could no longer use him. Once it was clear that he was likely going to lose, they threw him overboard so fast.”
Christian Church in India Suspends Services Following Attack by Hindu Extremists
(LifeSiteNews) — A village church in central India’s Hindu-majority Madhya Pradesh state has suspended worship services following an attack on the congregation by Hindu extremists, according to sources cited by Morning Star News on July 15.
On June 1, members of the Hindu extremist Bajrang Dal led a group of around 20 assailants to the house of Indian pastor Madia Damor in Thuvadara village in Madhya Pradesh’s Jabua District. These attackers disrupted the ongoing worship service, assaulting 50 people who were assembled for prayer, including women and children, Morning Star News reported.
“There was all chaos,” Damor stated. “The children and women were crying, shouting, asking them to stop, but they forcefully dragged them out of my house,” the pastor added in comments to Morning Star News.
“When I tried to stop the mob from attacking the women and children, they pushed me off and threatened me that they would kill me if I conducted church prayers in the village again.”
Damor recounted that assailants grabbed a 54-year-old Christian identified as Noorji, and “started pelting stones” at him.
“He was isolated from the congregation, and they chased him away by a few meters and started pelting stones at him,” the pastor recalled.
Consequently, Noorji had to undergo medical treatment at a hospital. According to a report by LICAS News, Noorji’s medical expenses have beleaguered his family.
“The treatment has been very expensive for Noorji’s family. He is only a laborer and earns daily wages for his livelihood,” Damor lamented.
“His children and their spouses also have been baptized and stood boldly for Christian faith in this Thuvadara village,” the pastor said, as he elaborated on why assailants attacked Noorji.
Despite reporting the attack to local authorities, Damor said that police have been dismissive regarding the attack.
“Instead of listening to us and recording our statements, the police started questioning us,” Damor told Morning Star News.
“The police asked me, ‘Why do you conduct worship services in the village when they are saying not to conduct Christian worship?’ The police did not understand our grievances. Even after seeing Noorji bleeding continuously, the police did not take any steps to send him for medical examination and treatment.”
“Each time we go to the police station to report the attack, the police don’t believe us,” the pastor asserted.
For fear of future attacks, church members in need of prayer now have to clandestinely drop by Damor’s house before 7 a.m.
“Parents bring their sick children early in the morning seeking prayers,” the pastor said. “If they have come from a bit far away, we advise them to join in prayers over the phone.”
Nonetheless, Sunday worship has totally ceased, the pastor conceded.
“The congregation fears there could be another attack if they gathered again,” he said.
The attack on Damor’s house is not the first time Christian churches or prayer groups have faced violence from Hindu extremists.
In 2021, Hindu extremists assaulted the community of Pastor Firoz Bagh as they were in the midst of prayer, AsiaNews reported.
The crowd of Hindu radicals then slammed the Christians for alleged forced conversions and threatened to assault Bagh.
Based on the 2024 World Watch List by Christian advocacy group Open Doors, India ranks 11th among countries where it is most difficult to be a Christian. As per an Open Doors local partner, Priya Sharma, whose real name has been withheld for privacy reasons, Indian Christians “experience physical violence, sexual assault, abduction, attacks on church gatherings, vandalism, forced church closures and even death.”

Kamala Harris Hired Illegal Alien Who Attacked a Woman to be Part of Jobs Program While Serving as San Francisco’s DA
While she was San Francisco’s district attorney, Vice President Kamala Harris hired an illegal immigrant who attacked a woman to be part of a free jobs program.
Harris has consistently claimed that she has spent her career fighting individuals and institutions who harm the American public and has been broadcasting this message since beginning her presidential bid. But her tenure as San Francisco District Attorney reveals otherwise.
During her time as a prosecutor, Harris implemented a program known as “Back on Track” to rehabilitate illegal immigrants arrested for drug crimes through education and job training. Harris supported this initiative as a model for criminal justice reform.
(Related: Media rewrites history, claims Kamala was never Biden’s “border czar” in charge of migrant problem.)
However, the program faced scrutiny when one of its participants, Alexander Izaguirre, an illegal immigrant from Honduras, committed a violent crime while enrolled.
Izaguirre, who had been arrested twice within eight months for purse snatching and selling cocaine, was selected for “Back on Track” by Harris’s office.
But in July 2008, while Izaguirre was enrolled in the program, he assaulted Amanda Kiefer, a San Francisco resident, in a brutal attack that left her with a fractured skull and long-term trauma. At that time, Izaguirre stole Kiefer’s purse and, in his attempt to escape, got into an SUV and tried to run her down. Kiefer clung to the hood of the vehicle before being thrown onto the road, resulting in severe injuries. The attack prompted Kiefer to leave California permanently. He avoided deportation and still received job training.
When his story surfaced in 2009 during Harris’ campaign to be California’s attorney general, she expressed regret about the program’s oversight regarding illegal immigrants and expressed her confusion and anger over why individuals with criminal records were not being deported.
“The immigration issue, as it relates to the Izaguirre case, obviously is a huge kind of pimple on the face of this program,” Harris said at the time. “I don’t mean to trivialize it, nor do I mean to cover it up.” She was left with no choice but to support the deportation of Izaguirre and revised the “Back on Track” criteria to require participants to provide documentation proving their eligibility to work legally. But Harris still allowed the remaining illegal immigrants in the program to complete their training.
“My issue was more, what are we going to do to prevent this from happening in the future?” she said at the time. And now, she is touting her time as a prosecutor in her 2024 presidential bid.
Harris also supports sanctuary policies linked to the release of violent criminals
Aside from the “Back on Track” program, she also supported sanctuary policies, which have been linked to the release of violent criminals, as a San Francisco District Attorney.
In fact, a 2006 statement from her spokesperson declared, “We are a sanctuary city, a city of refuge, and we always will be.” This policy, which protects undocumented immigrants, prohibited local authorities from questioning individuals’ immigration status unless they committed a crime.
However, the loose interpretation of several city departments about the policies has been implicated in multiple violent crimes.
For instance, the notorious case of Edwin Ramos, an illegal immigrant from El Salvador with a significant criminal history, committed a triple murder in June 2008. Ramos fatally shot Tony Bologna, 48, and his two sons Michael, 20 and Matthew, 16, at a traffic stop. Prosecutors suggested that Ramos mistakenly believed the victims were rival gang members.
Ramos was charged with gang-related assault and an attempted robbery, yet the juvenile probation department did not involve federal immigration authorities due to the sanctuary city policy.
At the time, Danielle Bologna, the widow and mother of the Bologna victims, pleaded with Harris to seek the death penalty for Ramos. But Harris clung to her anti-death penalty stance and instead advocated for a life sentence without parole for Ramos.
In March 2008, just months before the Bologna murders, Ramos was found in a car with another gang member who had tried to discard a gun used in a double killing. Charges were not filed against Ramos as police could not prove his knowledge of the gun.
In line with this, Danielle Bologna filed a lawsuit against the city in 2009. She argued that the lenient interpretation of sanctuary city policies contributed to the death of her family. However, a judge dismissed the lawsuit, ruling that city officials were not responsible for Ramos’ actions.
