Feminist medical school professor says trans kids identifying as ‘minotaurs’ are part of ‘gender revolution’

The ‘Minotaur’ is derived from Greek mythology. It had the body of a man and the head of a bull

A California hospital executive and professor claimed children can identify as a mythology-inspired creature and claimed that this category of children love mermaids, according to a presentation reviewed by Fox News Digital.

Diane Ehrensaft, a self-identified “feminist” who supports a “gender revolution,” is the director of mental health and chief psychologist at the UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital gender development center. She is also a professor at UCSF School of Medicine. The developmental and clinical psychologist specializes in pediatric “gender-affirmative care for transgender and gender-expansive patients.”

Her biography paged reflected that Ehrensaft focuses her research on how genders before puberty develop as well as the mental health effects of puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones, which are part of chemical sex changes, on children.

Ehrensaft made what some may consider fringe claims about gender ideology, including that kids can identify as “gender hybrids” which include a mythology-inspired creature called a “gender Minotaur,” and that kids can change their genders by season and can have different identities depending on their location.

Diane Ehrensaft transgender minotaurs

According to Britannica, a “Minotaur” is derived from Greek mythology and was a creature which had the body of a man and the head of a bull.

“I totally agree we are in the midst of a gender revolution and the children are leading it. And it’s a wonderful thing to see. And it’s also humbling to know [children] know more than we do about this topic of being gender expansive,” she said during a 2018 talk at the San Francisco Public Library.

Ehrensaft believes the transgender revolution is the next phase of the 60s feminist movement, which featured challenging stereotypes about gender.

“Now, we’ve got genders moving boulders, and it makes a lot of people nervous,” she said.

Ehrensaft believes that transgenderism is derived by a “gender web” which is influenced by culture, upbringing and nature.

“Each person’s web will change over time as they age,” the event’s description said. “What’s Your Gender? Don’t answer until you hear all your options… Ehrensaft wants you to get off the binary measurement scale.”

She introduced language such as “genderfluid,” “non-binary” and “gender expansive.” She then predicted the language will evolve beyond that, and cited her conversation with a 7-year-old as proof that there can be “gender minotaurs” and hybrids.

“And as you know, language is political. So what’s good today will be politically incorrect tomorrow. So we’ll just keep changing as we go,” said Ehrensaft. “This is a whole group of kids you all should know about.”

“A boy… twirled [in my office]… and said to me, ‘You see, I’m a Prius… I’m a boy in the front, and I’m a girl in the back.”

“I started meeting a whole bunch of other gender hybrids. And so we have the gender Prius, we have a gender Minotaur,” she said. “And most of the kids who are gender minotaurs love mermaids. So make sure you have a lot of mermaid books. If you really you think about it, it works.”

FBI Official Involved In Trump-Russia Witch Hunt To Plead Guilty

Charles McGonigal, the former head of counterintelligence at the FBI New York office, is slated to plead guilty to corruption charges. The charges stem from work he allegedly undertook for a sanctioned Russian oligarch after his departure from the government, as revealed by a court order.

McGonigal was a key figure in the FBI’s contentious investigation into “Russiagate” involving former President Donald Trump. This investigation eventually resulted in the appointment of Robert Mueller as a special counsel to examine potential Russian interference in the 2016 election.

McGonigal, a once-respected figure within the FBI, was indicted earlier this year on a series of charges, including violating US sanctions, conspiracy, and money laundering. These charges are linked to his work in 2021 with Russian oligarch Oleg Deripaska, a figure who was sanctioned for his alleged role in interfering in the 2016 US presidential election.

On the same day as the indictment related to his work with Deripaska, McGonigal was also charged in a separate case in Washington. This case involved the concealment of $225,000 that he allegedly received from a former Albanian intelligence employee.

The dual charges paint a picture of a high-ranking FBI official allegedly involved in a web of international corruption, creating questions about the integrity of the FBI once again.

Judge Jennifer Reardon, who is overseeing the New York case, issued an order indicating that she had been informed of McGonigal’s potential intention to change his plea. In response, she has set a plea proceeding for next week. The development suggests a significant shift in McGonigal’s legal strategy and could potentially expedite the resolution of the case.

McGonigal was under a legal obligation to inform the FBI about his interactions with foreign authorities. However, he is accused of concealing these connections while engaging in business activities and international travel that were incompatible with his professional responsibilities.

He pleaded not guilty to the four counts: Conspiring to violate and evade US sanctions, money laundering, conspiring to commit money laundering, and conspiring to violate federal law against doing business with sanctioned individuals.

In relation to the Albania case, McGonigal’s attorney, Seth DuCharme, made a statement last week at a court hearing in Washington. He indicated that there was a “decent chance the case is going to be resolved” without having to go to trial. He also noted that a definitive decision should be known just after Labor Day.

McGonigal’s case is particularly notable due to his high-ranking position within the FBI. As one of the highest-ranking former FBI officials to be charged with a crime, a potential guilty plea could have far-reaching implications for the public’s perception of the FBI and its operations.

Craig Robertson shot dead in FBI raid linked to threats against Biden

A Utah man was shot and killed by FBI agents during a Wednesday morning raid linked to assassination threats against President Biden and other top Democrats, including Vice President Kamala Harris and Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg.

The deadly shooting occurred in Provo around 6:15 a.m., when the feds tried to serve arrest and search warrants at a home, the FBI office in Salt Lake City told The Post in a statement.

A federal complaint obtained by The Post from the Utah US Attorney’s office identified the suspect at the center of the probe that prompted Wednesday’s raid as 75-year-old Craig Robertson.

An agency spokesperson confirmed that one person struck by gunfire had died, but she did not share any further details about the “agent-involved shooting.”

“The FBI takes all shooting incidents involving our agents or task force members seriously,” the statement read.

Robertson — who described himself in his social media posts as a “MAGA TRUMPER” — was facing counts of interstate threats, a threat against the president and influencing, impeding and retaliating against federal law enforcement officers by threat.

The 39-page complaint included numerous unhinged Facebook posts made by Robertson threatening to assassinate Biden and other senior Democrats, including Harris, Bragg, New York Attorney General Letitia James, US Attorney General Merrick Garland and California Gov. Gavin Newsom.

In a status update posted earlier this week, Robertson, an Air Force veteran, suggested that he was planning to make an attempt on Biden’s life when the commander-in-chief visited the Beehive State later this week.

“I hear Biden is coming to Utah,” Robertson wrote Sunday.

Craig Robertson Facebook post

Robertson appeared to threaten the FBI in a social media post.

“Digging out my old ghille suit and cleaning the dust off the M24 sniper rifle. Welcome, Buffoon-in-chief!”

An FBI agent wrote in the complaint filed Tuesday seeking a warrant for Robertson’s arrest that the suspect’s post presented a “knowing and willful true threat to kill or cause injury to President Biden.”

Transgender ‘demands’ ex-boyfriend to return her testicles from his fridge

A transgender Michigan woman has demanded her ex-boyfriend return her surgically removed testicles — which she claims he is keeping in a refrigerated jar.

Brianna Kingsley, 40, of Pontiac, filed an affidavit claiming her ex, William Wojciechowski, 37, “retains possession of my surgically extracted testicles, preserved in (a) Mason jar, kept in (the) fridge next to the eggs,” The Detroit News reported.

“Demand immediate return of my human remains specimen and damages of $6,500,” adds the handwritten claim filed last week in Pontiac’s 50th District Court, where the amount is the maximum allowed in the small-claims division.

Kingsley appeared to poke fun at her missing gonads in a TikTok video last year titled ​“The ​Unboxing of Dee’s Nutz.”

In it, she opens a box and removes a bag labeled a biohazard – smiling coyly as she puts her fingers to her mouth and repackages it, suggesting they were her removed testicles and ending with a triumphant dance.

Wojciechowski said he plans to use Kingsley’s filing as proof that she has been harassing and intimidating him since they broke up eight months ago.

He told the local news outlet that Kingsley “picked up all her possessions when we broke up. She took everything she wanted then.”

Wojciechowski also accused Kingsley of harassing him since their breakup, claiming she threatened to hurt him and showed up at his workplace.

“I’ll be telling my lawyer about this because it’s getting ridiculous,” he told The Detroit News, which alerted him to the filing.

“She’s been harassing me ever since we broke up. I had to take out a PPO against her,” Wojciechowski said, referring to a personal protection order that he showed the outlet.

The order — signed by Oakland County Circuit Court Judge Lisa Gorcyca on Dec. 13 and valid for a year — bars Kingsley from buying a firearm and orders her to avoid personal contact and “no third party contact or social media contact,” The Detroit News reported.

“I don’t owe her anything,” the ex said when asked if he plans to fight to keep the testicles.

Vegan Mom Refuses to Kill Lice in Daughter’s Hair

A woman in Australia refused to rid her own child of parasitic head lice because she was vegan and expressed an aversion to killing anything living, her neighbor complained.

The disturbing revelation comes from an advice column that was published long ago by the country’s Nine.com outlet, but only recently resurfaced and attracted a lot of attention.

Every word of it reads as an example of child abuse and the delusions of those who refuse to consume animal products, citing their perceived moral or ethical questions about it.

Nine’s life coach Alexandra Carlton received a letter about this whack job of a mom.

“My seven-year-old daughter is best friends with the girl next door, whose family are vegan,” the letter stated. “That’s fine; we respect their choice and even make special food when little River comes to play. My problem is that recently this otherwise delightful child was at our house and scratching furiously … and I discovered she was crawling with head lice.”

The concerned mother made the other child’s vegan mom aware of the infection — only to find her parents were well aware her scalp was being feasted upon.

“My [neighbor] told me she was in the practice of combing the lice and nits into the garden where they had a chance of survival,” the concerned parent wrote. “My jaw hit the floor.”

She concluded, “I don’t want to separate the kids, but there’s no way ‘combing them into the garden’ is going to work (industrial-grade pesticide barely works), and I don’t want my daughter covered in vermin.”

As a father, I would have instantly severed ties with this child’s family and banned each of them from my property.

That decision might seem rash, but head lice are no joke.

“I hate to be the one to tell you this but your neighbor is a monster. Does this woman not realize that simply combing those poor lice off their supporting hairs is condemning them to a slow, parched death in the garden?

“Does she not stop to think of the microscopic amoeba she’s crushing each time she swipes through her daughter’s locks? As you read this, she’s probably swallowing ladlefuls of innocent bacteria while she drinks her raw kelp kombucha smoothie, Nitty, sending them to a sizzling demise in the pits of her stomach acid.”

Virginia 6-year-old’s chilling words after shooting 1st grade teacher

Newly unsealed search warrants reportedly reveal the shocking words a 6-year-old Virginia student allegedly uttered after brandishing a gun at school and shooting his teacher in the classroom.

“I shot that b—- dead,” the boy said on Jan. 6, 2023, just moments after the shooting, according to Amy Kovac, a reading specialist at Richneck Elementary School in Newport News, Virginia. Kovac rushed into the classroom afterward and restrained the child until police arrived.

The unsealed warrants, reported by local news outlets Tuesday, described how Kovac had heard a gunshot and witnessed several children run out of the classroom.

Their teacher, 25-year-old Abigail Zwerner, also dashed out, bleeding from the hand and upper torso before she collapsed in the front office and was rushed to the hospital. The warrant says Kovac went into the classroom where she found the boy standing by his desk with the gun next to him on the floor.

“I did it,” the boy also said, according to Kovac. “I got my mom’s gun last night.”

Earlier in the day, two students had told Kovac they saw the boy with a gun in his backpack, the warrant says. Kovac and a school administrator are said to have searched the student’s backpack at recess but did not find the firearm inside at that time.

Zwerner’s legal team filed a $40 million lawsuit against the Newport News School Board and certain administrators in April.

Her lawyers contend that several school employees, including Zwerner herself, had warned administration before the shooting unfolded. When interviewed at the hospital after the shooting, Zwerner told investigators she had separated her first grade class into two groups after recess for a reading activity when the boy pulled out the gun.

“What are you doing with that?” the teacher said she asked, before the boy fired a shot at her.

The warrant says Zwerner told investigators there had been multiple “disciplinary incidents” involving the same student leading up to shooting. They involved physical violence and threats of violence, which had been reported to school administrators, the warrant adds.

Days after the shooting, investigators interviewed the boy’s former kindergarten teacher.

The retired Newport News elementary school teacher, who had been assigned to Richneck Elementary School, told police how she had been choked in September 2021 by the same boy said to have shot Zwerner. The warrant notes how limited school records pertaining to the boy obtained from Child Protective Services did not include any information about the alleged choking described by the kindergarten teacher, so it is possible that the incident and “possibly others were not readily provided by Newport News Public Schools.”

Though the boy has not been charged, his mother, Deja Taylor, faces two counts: felony child neglect and a misdemeanor count of leaving a firearm in a way that could endanger a child.

In lieu of a bench trial, a plea hearing is scheduled for Aug. 15. Taylor’s attorney, James Ellenson, has previously told WTKR that the boy’s mother was suffering from mental health issues following an ectopic pregnancy and a miscarriage.
