The Federation Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) has drafted framework that will make it easier for biological men who identify as women to compete in women’s football. FIFA is the world’s largest football association and organizes the World Cup every four years.
According to The Daily Mail , FIFA’s governing body plans to wholly drop the “testosterone threshold for transgender women and proposed that footballers should be allowed to compete as their self-identified gender.” Women’s rights activist Julie Scott posted about FIFA’s plans on Twitter and wrote, “If this goes through, it’ll kill women’s football. How can they claim this would ‘balance fairness & inclusion’? It’s the opposite of that.” FIFA’s previous standard of eligibility for biological men who identify as women was that their testosterone needed to be under five nanomoles per liter after a period of at least 12 months.
Moving to admit more men who identify as transgender into women’s sports follows a controversial trend of sports organizations ignoring the biological advantages men have over women in physical competition.
Evidence has shown that the advantages persist no matter how many months of hormone treatment an athlete may undertake, which has been most noticeably evidenced by former UPenn swimmer Lia Thomas’ dominance in the world of swimming.
FIFA’s language drops a testosterone limit altogether and instead sets up a vague criteria around whether a transgender athlete has retained an advantage from their male puberty. Instead of set specific guidelines, FIFA would adopt a case-by-case analysis where “experts” from the world of medicine, psychology, and human rights would determine eligibility.
The football association is following the precedent set by the International Olympic Committee (IOC).
In 2020 the IOC had set a standard in name only and outlined that men who wanted to compete against women should have testosterone levels below 10 nanomoles per liter […]

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!
