The Washington Post has changed the headline of an opinion piece by Fareed Zakaria suggesting Democrats should ” forget pronouns ,” after facing Twitter condemnation. “Forget Pronouns: Democrats need to become the party of building things,” was the headline of the piece posted Thursday. The “forget pronouns” was later dropped from the headline.
Zakaria shared the article on Twitter, saying “getting stuff done” is “a lot more important to most Americans than using the right pronouns.” This was in response to a New York Times poll that showed President Biden as intensely unpopular, especially among young people . Yet the backlash against Zakaria was swift. In the column, Zakaria listed of the myriad problems facing the US, from social problems to infrastructure to the economy. He then concluded: “This is not a perception problem. It is a reality problem. Democrats need to once more become the party that gets stuff done, builds things and makes government work for people. That’s a lot more important to most Americans than using the right pronouns.” That currently is the only mention of the word “pronouns” in the piece.
Twitter users wrote about the need to respect others pronouns and paying attention to the needs of transgender people, Mediaite reported . Users of the platform attacked Zakaria for tossing aside pronouns without providing evidence the gender ideology delaying progress on other issues.
Chasten Buttigieg, a teacher by trade who is married to Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg,wrote, “It is wildly inappropriate to instruct Democrats to toss aside an entire group of Americans in order to win.”
Without looking at the substance of the column, which instructed Democrats that most Americans don’t care about pronouns, and that soft issues, like pronouns, are what many Americans believe the party stands for, Buttigieg doubled down on the need to respect […]

Will America-First News Outlets Make it to 2023?
Things are looking grim for conservative and populist news sites.
There’s something happening behind the scenes at several popular conservative news outlets. 2021 was bad, but 2022 is proving to be disastrous for news sites that aren’t “playing ball” with the corporate media narrative. It’s being said that advertisers are cracking down, forcing some of the biggest ad networks like Google and Yahoo to pull their inventory from conservative outlets. This has had two major effects. First, it has cooled most conservative outlets from discussing “taboo” topics like Pandemic Panic Theater, voter fraud, or The Great Reset. Second, it has isolated those ad networks that aren’t playing ball.
Certain topics are anathema for most ad networks. Speaking out against vaccines or vaccine mandates is a certain path to being demonetized. Highlighting voter fraud in the 2020 and future elections is another instant advertising death penalty. Throw in truthful stories about climate change hysteria, Critical Race Theory, and the border crisis and it’s easy to understand how difficult it is for America-First news outlets to spread the facts, share conservative opinions, and still pay the bills.
Without naming names, I have been told of several news outlets who have been forced to either consolidate with larger organizations or who have backed down on covering certain topics out of fear of being “canceled” by the ad networks. I get it. This is a business for many of us and it’s not very profitable. Those of us who do this for a living are often barely squeaking by, so loss of additional revenue can often mean being forced to make cuts. That means not being able to cover the topics properly. Its a Catch-22: Tell the truth and lose the money necessary to keep telling the truth, or avoid the truth and make enough money to survive. Those who have chosen survival simply aren’t able to spread the truth properly.
We will never avoid the truth. The Lord will provide if it is His will. Our job is simply to share the facts, spread the Gospel, and educate as many Americans as possible while exposing the forces of evil.
To those who have the means, we ask that you please donate. We have options available now, but there is no telling when those options will cancel us. We have our GivingFuel page. There have been many who have been canceled by PayPal, but for now it’s still an option. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
