Virginia School Board Adopts Transgender Policy Amid Parents’ Protests

Loudoun County, Virginia, one of the wealthiest counties in the nation, will allow male students who identify as females to use girls’ restrooms and locker rooms at school.

Article by Virginia Allen from Daily Signal.

The Loudoun County School Board voted 7-2 Wednesday night to adopt a transgender policy affirming students’ chosen gender identity.

Members Jeffrey Morse and John Beatty voted against the policy, while Brenda Sheridan, Atoosa Reaser, Denise Corbo, Harris Mahedavi, Ian Serotkin, Leslee King, and Beth Barts voted in favor of the policy.

The vote on Policy 8040, or the “Rights of Transgender and Gender-Expansive Students,” came a day after more than 100 parents, teachers, and area residents expressed both support and opposition during a lengthy school board meeting.

“My priority is the rights, privacy, and safety of women and girls, which will be obliterated if you implement Policy 8040,” Kara Dansky, a self-described feminist and president of the U.S. chapter of the Women’s Human Rights Campaign, said in her remarks.

Emotions ran high during the nearly four hours of public comment Tuesday. Fifth grade teacher Laura Morris, who said she has taught for the county for five years, resigned while speaking to the school board, which cut her off when her two minutes of allotted time expired.

“School board, I quit,” Morris said, her voice breaking as she fought tears. “I quit your policies, I quit your trainings, and I quit being a cog in a machine that tells me to push highly politicized agendas on our most vulnerable constituents—the children. I will find employment elsewhere.”

Policy 8040 allows students in the school district about 40 miles west of Washington, D.C., to use restrooms and locker rooms that “correspond to their consistently asserted gender identity.”

School staff must allow all students to participate in “interscholastic, co-curricular and extra-curricular activities … in a manner consistent with the student’s gender identity.”

The transgender policy requires administrators, faculty, and staff to call students by their “chosen name and gender pronouns that reflect their consistently asserted gender identity.”

Ryan T. Anderson, author of the book “When Harry Became Sally: Responding to the Transgender Moment,” which Amazon recently banned, called Policy 8040 “extreme” and “remarkably unjust.”

“Students who struggle with their gender identity should be treated with compassion, but we should never lie to such children about who they really are, nor force other students and teachers to affirm transgender ideology,” Anderson told The Daily Signal in an email Thursday.

Anderson added:

Nor should we sacrifice the privacy, safety, and equality of students by allowing, for example, boys who identify as girls into private facilities intended for girls only or into athletic competition reserved for girls only.

Anderson, president of the Ethics and Public Policy Center, previously was the William E. Simon senior research fellow at The Heritage Foundation, parent organization of The Daily Signal.

Just weeks ago, the Loudoun County school system suspended an elementary school gym teacher, Tanner Cross, after he opposed the proposed transgender policy at a school board meeting. Cross said he would not lie to students by calling them by a pronoun that didn’t match their biological sex.

“I will not affirm that a biological boy can be a girl, and vice versa, because it is against my religion, it’s lying to a child, it’s abuse to a child, and it is sinning against our God,” Cross said during the May 25 meeting.

A judge ordered the reinstatement of Cross after he filed a lawsuit, although the school system has appealed.

Those in favor of the transgender policy also delivered impassioned remarks Tuesday night, urging the board to vote yes.

“I’m here to ask you to support 8040,” said Charlotte McConnell, a parent of two Loudoun County students who identified herself as gender nonconforming and queer. “Vote for that policy because when we protect trans students, gender nonconforming students, and students of color, we protect all students.”

Another parent of two, Michael Rivera, followed McConnell’s remarks by speaking directly in opposition to the new policy.

“You have failed us,” Rivera told school board members.

Rivera added that after doing some research, he found that “0.4% of people in Virginia are transgender.”

“So, 81,000 kids in [Loudoun County Public Schools]—that makes about 325 kids that are transgender,” he said.

The entire school system is being turned “upside down for 325 kids,” Rivera added, “and we never had a conversation or a discussion about how to do that and satisfy all parties involved.”

“I wish the school board would grow a spine and act like the elected officials they are supposed to be,” he said.

The Loudoun County School Board did not respond to The Daily Signal’s request for comment on the adoption of Policy 8040.

The board approved several amendments to the transgender policy Wednesday, including a requirement that all county school staff receive training on how to care for transgender students and comply with the new policy.

The school board also voted unanimously to add language requiring schools to update restrooms and locker rooms within five years to make the facilities more private. This includes addition of unisex restrooms.

The action comes after months of protests over the transgender policy.

The school board walked out of its meeting room June 22 after voting unanimously to end public comment after the crowd erupted in cheers following remarks from former state Sen. Dick Black.

Black, a Republican who represented parts of Loudoun and Prince William counties from 2012 to 2020, spoke in opposition to the transgender policy during that meeting.

Don’t run out of coffee during the apocalypse. Stock up on delicious coffee that’s freeze-dried and sealed to keep it fresh for decades.

“You’re making teachers lie to their students, and even kids know it’s wrong,” Black told the school board.

After board members left, parent Jon Tigges and others organized the audience to continue delivering comments, but officials soon declared the meeting an “unlawful assembly.”

Police arrested Tigges and another man even as the crowd moved outside and continued delivering comments opposed to the transgender policy.

The Loudoun County school system’s transgender policy was to take effect immediately.

The Dangers of Speaking the Truth Diminish If We Work Together

It’s becoming harder and harder for patriots to ignore the deep suppression of truth that’s happening in America today.

In all of my years in journalism, I have never received as many threats or been attacked by big companies like Google and Facebook as I have in 2021. I’d say that ever since we started covering widespread voter fraud, government-endorsed Pandemic Panic Theater, vaccine cover-ups, Critical Race Theory, and the various Neo-Marxist and Satanic agendas at play, I’ve been targeted more in months than the entirety of my life prior.

Speaking the truth is getting harder with so much censorship and suppression rampant. Prior to 2020, I was not a “conspiracy theorist” or an “anti-vaxxer,” but if there’s one thing the onslaught of exposed lies have taught us in the last 18 months, it’s that we cannot take what we’re told by the “arbiters of truth” at face value. There’s an agenda behind every message, a narrative driving every story, and a series of gigantic cover-ups designed to keep the masses in the dark.

This is why we’re building a network of news outlets that are willing to go against the narrative and expose the truth. We need help. We’re establishing strong partnerships with like-minded news outlets and courageous journalists. Even as Big Tech suppresses us, the honest messages they’re trying to quash are finding their way to the eyes and ears of patriots across the nation. With the help of new content partners like The Epoch Times and The Liberty Daily, we’re starting to see a real impact.

Our network is currently comprised of nine sites:

Some of our content is spread across all of these sites. Other pieces of content are unique. We write most of what we post but we also draw from those willing to allow us to share their quality articles, videos, and podcasts. We collect the best content from fellow conservative sites that give us permission to republish them. We’re not ego-driven; I’d much rather post a properly attributed story written by experts like Dr. Joseph Mercola or Natural News than rewrite it like so many outlets like to do. We’re not here to take credit. We’re here to spread the truth.

I’ve said much of this before. From time to time I reframe this request for assistance by taking the most relevant message of the day and adjusting the story accordingly. We’ve discussed this network in previous articles. Now, it’s time to talk about help. First and foremost, we need financial assistance detailed below. But we could also use more writers who are willing to volunteer their thoughts for the sake of spreading the message. Those who are interested should contact me directly.

As far as money, we’re looking better than we have in the recent past, but we are currently experiencing a gap between revenue and expenses that cannot be overcome by click-ads and MyPillow promos alone (promo code “NOQ” by the way).

To overcome our revenue gap and keep these sites running, our needs fluctuate between $2200-$7800 per month. May, 2021, for example, was amazing and we almost broke even. June, revenue was sluggish at best and we had to make up a big difference out of our pockets. But we’re not just trying to get out of the red. If and when we start getting enough contributions to expand, we will do just that. Very few get into journalism to try to get rich and we’re definitely not among those who do. Our success is driven by spreading the truth, profitable or not.

Our Giving Fuel page makes it easy to donate one-time or monthly. Alternatively, you can donate through PayPal or Bitcoin as well. Bitcoin: 3A1ELVhGgrwrypwTJhPwnaTVGmuqyQrMB8

Time is short. As the world spirals towards radical progressivism, the need for truthful journalism has never been greater. But in these times, we need as many conservative media voices as possible. Please help keep NOQ Report and the other sites in the network going. Our promise is this: We will never sell out America. If that means we’re going to struggle for a while or even indefinitely, so be it. Integrity first. Truth first. America first.

Thank you and God Bless,

Most “Conservative” News Outlets Are on the Big Tech Teat

Not long ago, conservative media was not beholden to anyone. Today, most sites are stuck on the Big Tech gravy train.

I’ll keep this short. The rise of Pandemic Panic Theater, massive voter fraud, and other “taboo” topics have neutered a majority of conservative news sites. You’ll notice they are very careful about what topics they tackle. Sure, they’ll attack Critical Race Theory, Antifa, and the Biden-Harris regime, but you won’t see them going after George Soros, Bill Gates, the World Economic Forum, or the Deep State, among others.

The reason is simple. They are beholden to Big Tech, and Big Tech doesn’t allow certain topics to be discussed or they’ll cut you off. Far too many conservative news outlets rely on Google, Facebook, and Twitter for the bulk of their traffic. They depend on big checks from Google ads to keep the sites running. I don’t necessarily hold it against them. We all do what we need to do to survive. I just wish more would do like we have, which is to cut out Big Tech altogether.

We don’t get Google checks. We don’t have Facebook or Twitter buttons on our stories. We don’t have a YouTube Channel (banned), an Instagram profile (never made one), or a TikTok (no thanks, CCP). We’re not perfect, but we’re doing everything we can to not owe anything to anyone… other than our readers. We owe YOU the truth. We owe YOU the facts that others won’t reveal about topics that others won’t tackle. And we owe America, this great land that allows us to take hold of these opportunities.

Like I said, I don’t hold other conservative sites under too much scrutiny over their choices. It’s easy for people to point fingers when we’re not the ones paying their bills or supporting their families. I just wish there were more who would make the bold move. Today, only a handful of other major conservative news outlets have broken free from the Big Tech teat. Of course, we need help.

Our network is currently comprised of nine sites:

We are also building partnerships with great conservative sites like The Liberty Daily and The Epoch Times to advance the message as loudly as possible, and we’re always looking for others with which to partner.

Some of our content is spread across multiple sites. Other pieces of content are unique. We write most of what we post but we also draw from those willing to allow us to share their quality articles, videos, and podcasts. We collect the best content from fellow conservative sites that give us permission to republish them. We’re not ego-driven; I’d much rather post a properly attributed story written by experts like Dr. Joseph Mercola or Natural News than rewrite it like so many outlets like to do. We’re not here to take credit. We’re here to spread the truth.

While donations are the best way to help, you can also support us by buying through our sponsors:

MyPillow: Use promo code “NOQ” to get up to 66% off AND you’ll be helping a patriotic, America First company.
ZStack: Improve your immune system with the Z-Stack protocol or rejuvenate your body from vaccines or shedding with Z-DTox by Dr. Vladimir Zelenko.
OurGoldGuy: Tell them JD sent you in your request to buy gold and it will help us… AND (wait for it) you’ll be helping a patriotic, America First company.
MyPatriotSupply: Stock up on long-term food, survival gear, and other things that you’ll need just in case things don’t recover and we keep heading towards apocalypse.

We know we could make a lot more money if we sold out like so many “conservative” publications out there. You won’t find Google ads on our site for a reason. Yes, they’re lucrative, but I don’t like getting paid by minions of Satan (I don’t like Google very much if you couldn’t tell).

Time is short. As the world spirals towards The Great Reset, the need for truthful journalism has never been greater. But in these times, we need as many conservative media voices as possible. Please help keep NOQ Report and the other sites in the network going. Our promise is this: We will never sell out America. If that means we’re going to struggle for a while or even indefinitely, so be it. Integrity first. Truth first. America first.
