NATASHA CHART Executive Director of the Women’s Liberation Front. From Ms. Chart's recent column: "The vast majority of women working for American organizations or outlets aligned with the political left more or less have to affirm a belief in sex change on the basis of gender identity. I’ve talked to women who’ve been forced out of work, out of professions, pushed out of classrooms, or hounded off campus. As a woman fired in 2015 from a left-leaning feminist charity for opposing gender identity and the legalization of the sex industry, I can say the dynamics within American leftist organizations broadly mirror typical workplace harassment of women." GREG PEMBERTON President of the DC Police Union Pemberton pushes back on the ongoing war on cops and the DC government's attempt to defund and "reimagine" policing.
