U.N. Votes on Palestine Membership, Trump Vows to Undue Biden’s Transgender Policy, New Lord of the Rings Movie Coming | May 10

The cross-sex hormones, puberty blockers, and surgeries being prescribed to young people struggling with their gender identity are “experimental,” according to Mary Margaret Olohan.  “We don't actually know what kind of effects that the puberty blockers and hormones are having on these young people,” Olohan says of women and men who attempt to change their bodies to appear as the opposite sex. 
In her new book “Detrans: True Stories of Escaping the Gender Ideology Cult,” Olohan shares the stories of detransitioners, such as Prisha Mosley.  As a young woman, Mosley took testosterone and had a double mastectomy before she chose to detransition and return to living as a female. Now an adult, she is expecting a child, but will never be able to breastfeed her baby. 
“I'm very happy for her and glad to see that she is able to bring new life into the world,” Olohan says of Mosley, but added that “we don't know if other people will be able to do the same. ” “There are people who have found that they are infertile now, due to the testosterone or the hormones” they took, she says.
Olohan, who is also a senior reporter for The Daily Signal, joins the podcast to explain how so many young people are being lured into the “gender ideology cult,” and what happens to a male or female body when taking cross-sex hormones or puberty blockers.

Biden Withholds Weapons From Israel, GOP Lawmakers Introduces Bill to Remove Hamas Sympathizers, Stormy Daniels on Witness Stand | May 9

Rushan Abbas, a Muslim Uyghur living in America, delivered remarks at the Hudson Institute in 2018 about China’s persecution of Uyghurs. Six days later, her sister was arrested by the Chinese government.
“My freedom of speech in America as an American citizen, my First Amendment right, cost my own sister's freedom,” Abbas, founder and executive director of Campaign for Uyghurs, says. Abbas describes her sister as someone who was living an “ordinary life.”
“She's not famous. She's not an educator. She never traveled to any of the Muslim-majority countries. But yet, [the] last five years and nine months, that she's in jail now,” says Abbas, who was born in China but moved to America 35 years ago.
The Chinese Communist Party views “anything that's different as a threat,” Abbas says. “So, the Uyghurs believing in religion and speaking a different language and … having completely unique cultural differences—all this the Chinese government is taking as a threat.”
Since her sister was imprisoned in China, Abbas quit her job and began advocating full time for the freedom of Uyghurs just like her sister.
She joins “The Daily Signal Podcast” to explain why the Chinese Communist Party is persecuting Uyghurs and what Americans can do to help.
