Federal Authorities Have No Standing to Force State Authorities to Impose Their Will:  Hugh Hewitt with Ryan Bangert, of ADF, and Dr. Albert Mohler

Many of you may have seen it: A jury in New York awarded a young woman $2 million over a transgender procedure as a minor.

It’s the first time a so-called detransitioner has won a case before a jury. She was 16 years old … and she had a double mastectomy, having been pressured by medical authorities.

The New York Times ran a big story headline: “Woman Wins a Lawsuit Over Gender Surgery as a Minor”

And then, one day later, here’s another headline: “Doctor’s group endorses restrictions on gender related surgery for minors.” That would be the American Society of Plastic Surgeons.

Then, just a day after that: a statement came from the American Medical Association saying that the best standard of care for minors is to delay these treatments.

You know the pro LGBTQ movement is trying to say there’s nothing big here, but this is a wave.

We’re seeing social ridiculousness now being called to account.

May it continue.

In the aftermath of the big layoffs at The Washington Post, there has been an explosion of commentary—again—about the decline of newspapers.

But if our concern is about journalism and not simply protecting old newspapers, there’s little to worry about.

Readers will always read. News junkies will always find and especially read news. Reading is simply faster than broadcast, so news delivered by text is always going to have a market.

“Journalism is a craft, not a profession,” the late Michael Kelly would routinely state when he was a weekly guest on my radio program. And the craft survives and thrives in the United States unlike anywhere else in the world because of our First Amendment. The never-ending “creative destruction” of capitalism—thanks for the phrase goes to Joseph Schumpeter—is the constant companion of every business, including journalism.

Text-only platforms remain abundant. News delivery platforms are plentiful. And there are zero gatekeepers.

In America, at least, the Golden Age of Journalism has begun.

Roger Goodell and the NFL want to expand the appeal of the league to international audiences. So: Offering a Spanish-language halftime might have made sense—had that been the extent of the messaging.

Instead, Goodell allowed Bad Bunny and his allies to lecture Americans about immigration enforcement. Not for the first time, the NFL treated its own domestic fan base as toxic and backward to pander to progressives.

When else have we seen this level of disdain for the culture of a company’s customers? Bud Light scolded their patrons as they pressed transgender Dylan Mulvaney.  Gillette treated men as predators and bullies. And: Target pressed transgender swimwear for children.

These brands assumed their loyal consumers would stick around to be insulted. In all instances, the brands lost significant ground.

More than six million people tuned out to watch Turning Point USA’s All American Halftime Show. Perhaps Goodell should think about how many more may vote with their feet next season.
