Political Money Is Flowing to Influencers. But From Whom?
Social media stars have become a magnet for campaigns and political groups that want to push priorities without disclosing where their money is going.

Why was it concluded that, to protect the female category, it is necessary to base eligibility on biological sex?
- Based on a review of and developments in the scientific evidence, the IOC working group concluded that biological males have anatomical and physiological performance advantage over biological females in all sports and events that rely on strength, power and/or endurance.
- Males benefit from the anabolic and performance enhancing effects of 15 to 20 times more testosterone than females.
- Testosterone is the primary driver of the performance gap between elite male and female athletes.
- There is no evidence that testosterone suppression and gender-affirming hormone therapy eliminates overall male advantage in trained athletes.

Inside Trump’s Effort to “Take Over” the Midterm Elections

Sanctuary laws get rid of that problem. Offender gets the same sentence, regardless of immigration status; the state and local PD simply don't record immigration status, and don't allow immigration officials access to the jail. No guilty feels, political pressure, over a deportation for a bench warrant issued for too many parking tickets.
They do tell DHS about offenders who commit major offenses, and let them know when they will be discharged from prison. Don't tell anyone, but at least in California, DHS is unreliable when it comes to picking up those people.
