The Conservative Cave

Angie Nixon: "They're spreading lies about me saying I want to abolish prisons... Why would I want to do that when I want [Ashley Moody] locked up and jailed."

CNN: "You want your Republican opponent locked up?"

Angie Nixon: "Yeah basically. I absolutely want that to happen."

Parents in Colorado have risen in protest after the high school volleyball team their daughters play for cut several girls from the roster while a trans player gets ample playing time.

The parents, four to be exact, claim that eight girls from the Dakota Ridge High School team were cut and a trans player was allowed to play. The group is now demanding answers from Jefferson County Public Schools.

According to the parents, one of the girls was an outstanding player who had made the sophomore team as a freshman.

“My daughter played volleyball at Dakota Ridge High School in Colorado’s Jeffco Public Schools during her freshman and sophomore years,” a mother of one of the girls told Fox News Digital. “Being part of that team meant everything to her. This year, about 35 plus girls, including my daughter, didn’t make the team, while a transgender player did. She was crushed, and as her mother, I feel her opportunity was taken from her. This is why Title IX protections in sports are so important for our girls.”

Another parent says her daughter, a setter, worked tirelessly in the offseason and even transferred to Dakota Ridge with the express intent of playing volleyball there, only to be cut.

The school district confirmed receipt of a Title IX complaint and said it is investigating.

In March, the Department of Education Office for Civil Rights found that Jefferson County had violated Title IX by allowing boys to play in girls’ sports.

 “OCR concluded that Jefferson County’s policies allowing access to intimate facilities and participation in sports based on ‘gender identity’ discriminates against females by denying them safety, dignity, and equal access to educational programs and activities,” the department said in a March press release. “OCR received athletic rosters from Jefferson County indicating that male students may occupy up to 61 roster positions on girls’ sports teams in the District.”

Trump's trying to do the Kennedy Center what he did to the East Wing.

There was sufficient space on the grounds of the WH to build an alleged ballroom. But Trump "justified" knocking down the East Wing with spurious and unfounded claims that the structure "looked like hell" and had been heavily altered over time. He admitted so much on a FOX interview with Laura Ingraham.
