NEW: Justice Department Sues Minnesota for Allowing Boys in Girls’ Sports and Intimate Spaces
Tim Walz testifies in House Oversight Committee hearing – March 4, 2026
The Department of Justice filed a lawsuit against the Minnesota Department of Education (MDE) and the Minnesota State High School League (MSHSL) on Monday, alleging sex-based discrimination by allowing boys to compete in girls’ sports and use girls’ locker rooms and bathrooms.
Minnesota Governor Tim Walz is a well-known advocate for these policies, and he infamously signed a 2023 law, directing all public schools to provide free menstrual products to all menstruating students, including trans students, in grades 4 to 12.
The 45-page lawsuit was filed in Minnesota federal court, arguing that the “unfair, intentionally discriminatory practice violates the very core of Title IX of the Education Amendments.”
“Title IX’s core purpose is to ensure that both boys and girls have equal educational opportunities. This includes protecting girls’ equal educational athletic opportunities by recognizing that boys have an inherent biological advantage in sports,” the filing reads, noting male and female athletes have “undeniable physiological differences.”
“But Minnesota casts this aside in favor of so-called “gender identity,” a choice that elevates ideology over biology, fairness, and safety. In open defiance of Title IX’s antidiscrimination protections, Minnesota’s policies and practices create unfair competition, deny girls equal educational opportunities, and expose girls to a hostile educational environment with heightened risks of physical injury and psychological harm.”
It further points to the over $3 billion in federal funding that the Minnesota Department of Education receives annually from the US Department of Education (USDOE), arguing that Minnesota has a duty to comply with USDOE’s regulations implementing Title IX.
The MDE also receives approximately $42.6 million annually from the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and is required to comply with HHS’s regulations implementing Title IX
President Trump’s Keeping Men Out of Women’s Sports executive order directs the USDOE to prioritize Title IX enforcement actions “against educational institutions (including athletic associations composed of or governed by such institutions) that deny female students an equal opportunity to participate in sports and athletic events by requiring them, in the women’s category, to compete with or against or to appear unclothed before males.”
The Department of Justice asked the court to block the state’s policy of abolishing sex-separated sports and intimate spaces, monitor their compliance with Title IX, and to compensate female athletes and correct girls’ athletic records that have been set by male athletes.
Attorney General Pam Bondi, Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon, HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., and Education Secretary Linda McMahon issued statements on the lawsuit in a press release:
“The Trump Administration does not tolerate flawed state policies that ignore biological reality and unfairly undermine girls on the playing field,” said Attorney General Pamela Bondi. “This Department of Justice is proud to partner with HHS and the Department of Education to protect our girls in Minnesota and across the country.”
“The Justice Department cannot ignore a state’s brazen defiance of federal antidiscrimination law,” said Assistant Attorney General Harmeet K. Dhillon of the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division. “In service of radical gender ideology, Minnesota’s actions violate Title IX and deny female athletes their hard-earned trophies, records, dignity, and safety.”
“We will not allow girls to be denied equal opportunity and basic privacy,” said Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. “Title IX is clear: schools that accept federal funding must protect the rights, safety, and dignity of female students.”
“The Trump Administration will always fight for the safety and civil rights of women and girls,” said U.S. Secretary of Education Linda McMahon. “Minnesota’s policies allow men to dominate women’s sports, denying female athletes fair competition and eroding their right to equal access in educational programs and activities. Thank you to Attorney General Bondi for bringing this fight to the courts to hold Minnesota accountable.”

President Trump on Wednesday called out the rigged Virginia election.
On Tuesday evening, Virginia voters passed the redistricting referendum that will benefit Democrats and disenfranchise millions of Virginia independents and Republicans.
“The ballot measure gives the Democrat-controlled Virginia legislature — rather than the state’s current nonpartisan commission — temporary redistricting power through the 2030 election. It could result in a 10-1 advantage for Democrats in Virginia’s congressional delegation, up from their current 6-5 edge,” Fox New reported.
Virginia’s radical Democrat Governor Abigail Spanberger lied on the campaign trail and said that she would not support gerrymandering and the congressional redistricting referendum.
The party that calls Trump a “dictator” and republicans “fascists”, now controls 90% of the districts in a state they won by 5%.
The irony…

Trump said Tuesday night’s Virginia election was rigged.
The President also said the language on he referendum was “purposely unintelligible and deceptive.”
President Trump’s full statement:
A RIGGED ELECTION TOOK PLACE LAST NIGHT IN THE GREAT COMMONWEALTH OF VIRGINIA!
All day long Republicans were winning, the Spirit was unbelievable, until the very end when, of course, there was a massive “Mail In Ballot Drop!”
Where have I heard that before — And the Democrats eked out another Crooked Victory! Six to five goes to ten to one, and yet the Presidential Election in November was very close to a 50-50 split.
In addition to everything else, the language on the Referendum was purposefully unintelligible and deceptive.
As everyone knows, I am an extraordinarily brilliant person, and even I had no idea what the hell they were talking about in the Referendum, and neither do they!
Let’s see if the Courts will fix this travesty of “Justice.” President DONALD J. TRUMP

Convicted Murderer Arrested for Sending Deranged Death Threats to Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons: ‘Two F-cking Bullets to the Back of Their Nazi Maggot Heads’
via The Department of Homeland Security
A convicted murderer has been arrested after sending unhinged, violent threats to outgoing Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons, including explicit calls for ICE agents to be “executed right there… with two f-cking bullets to the back of their maggot Nazi heads.”
Daniel Barber, who has a lengthy criminal record that includes a 1990 conviction for murder and robbery with intent to cause bodily harm, was arrested on April 10 by Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) agents in San Francisco.
The threats were sent via email on June 6, 2025.
In the vile message, Barber stated:
“YOUR GESTAPO NAZI MAGGOT ICE AGENTS SHOULD BE TERRIFIED, BECAUSE THE TRUTH IS EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM DESERVES TO BE ARRESTED BY ARMED AMERICAN CITIZENS, FROGMARCHED INTO THE STREETS, SUMMARILY TRIED AND CONVICTED OF CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY THERE IN PUBLIC, AND SUBSEQUENTLY EXECUTED RIGHT THERE AS WELL WITH TWO F–CKING BULLETS TO THE BACK OF THEIR MAGGOT NAZI HEADS!”
He continued, “EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM!”
“MAYBE STOP F-CKING ACTING LIKE HEINOUSLY F-CKING EVIL FASCIST KKKUNTS, AND THEY WOULDN’T DESERVE SUCH A FATE!”
The email concluded, “AND THAT IS NOT A THREAT, YOU LITTLE F-CKING B-TCH, BUT SIMPLY MY OPINION AS TO WHAT THOSE WORMS DESERVE. I’LL BE F-CKING PRAYING DAILY TO THE UNIVERSE AMERICANS START RISING UP AND GIVING THEM, AND YOU, EXACTLY THAT.”
Barber signed the email with his full name.
The Department of Homeland Security released full details about the arrest in a press release on Monday.
“This convicted murderer sent this disgusting death threat to ICE Director Todd Lyons,” Acting Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis said in a statement.
Bis continued, “Comparing ICE day-in and day-out to the Nazi Gestapo, the Secret Police, and slave patrols has consequences. The men and women of ICE are fathers and mothers, sons and daughters. They get up every morning to try and make our communities safer. Like everyone else, they just want to go home to their families at night. The violence and dehumanization of these men and women who are simply enforcing the law must stop.”
The press release noted, “The arrest comes as sanctuary politicians have created an environment that encourages rampant assaults on law enforcement. As our ICE law enforcement officers remove murderers, rapists, pedophiles, gang members, and terrorists from American communities, they are facing a more than 1,300% increase in assaults, an 8,000% increase in death threats, and a more than 3,300% increase in vehicle attacks.”

As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, Lyons and his family endured vicious harassment from the left, including doxxing of his wife and children and protests at their home.
Lyons is stepping down from the agency at the end of May.

RFK Jr. Torches Democrat Senator Elizabeth Warren During Hearing on TrumpRx Drug Price Cuts (VIDEO)
HHS Secretary RFK Jr. appeared on Capitol Hill for two hearings on Wednesday.
RFK Jr. first testified before the Senate Finance Committee on his agency’s budget and the deals that the Trump Administration struck with drug companies to lower prices.
Democrat Senator Elizabeth Warren tried to go after RFK Jr. over TrumpRx’s price cuts, but he shut her down.
In February, President Trump launched ‘TrumpRx’ to lower drug prices.
“Today, President Donald J. Trump announced the launch of TrumpRx.gov. Through the website, patients will be able to access large discounts on many of the most popular and highest-priced medicines in the country, paying prices in line with the lowest paid by other developed nations (known as the most-favored-nation, or MFN, price),” the White House announced in February.
“Today’s launch features drugs made by the first five manufacturers to reach MFN pricing deals with the Trump Administration: AstraZeneca, Eli Lilly, EMD Serono, Novo Nordisk, and Pfizer,” the White House said.
“Additional drugs from other companies that have signed MFN pricing deals will be made available through TrumpRx.gov in the coming months,” they said.
TrumpRx lowers prices for popular weight loss drugs such as Ozempic and Wegovy, inhalers, fertility drugs, and insulin.
Elizabeth Warren, a corrupt and worthless Democrat who has spent decades enriching herself by lying about being a Native American, tried to come at RFK Jr. about TrumpRx.
“If these pharma deals are so good, show them!” Warren said to RFK Jr.
“You had the power to make this deal yourself! Why didn’t you do that? We did this because you refuse to do it!” RFK Jr. said.
“You have a lot more power to negotiate than we do! We got the lowest prices in history,” he said.
Elizabeth Warren hit back and claimed TrumpRx is making things worse for the American people.
“Millions of people who are using Trump Rx disagree with you!” RFK Jr. said.
