What is a woman? Seems like a pretty simple question. But in today’s America, the left thinks females aren't the only ones who count as women anymore. Stories abound of biological males not only invading women's private spaces such as bathrooms and locker rooms, but dominating in women's sports.
All of this comes with the support of radical leftists and activists in medicine.
Worse, those medical doctors aren't just focused on treating adults. Transgender ideologues have targeted children.
Matt Walsh, author, podcast host, and filmmaker with The Daily Wire, has released a documentary film titled "What Is a Woman?" that he hopes will expose the worst aspects of gender ideology.
"You feel like you're staring into the pit of hell, honestly. I mean, you're looking at pure evil when you consider what they're doing to these kids, and they know what they're doing," Walsh says. "They have to know what they're doing, because they're the doctors and they know what it entails. They know that this stuff is obviously irreversible and they also know that kids can't actually consent to any of this stuff."
Walsh adds:
Kids don't know what they're doing. They're not looking five, 10 years into the future. I mean, even before you get to surgery and that's horrific enough, you've got the drugs, the hormone drugs, the so-called puberty blockers, and those drugs among other consequences, they also have the effect of sterilizing kids.
Walsh joins "The Daily Signal Podcast" to discuss his film and what gender activists are doing to kids, and offer solutions on how to escape this post-truth environment.

Are your financial investments being weaponized to undermine your political beliefs?
Investment firms, banks, and many other companies have embraced environmental, social, and governance, also known as ESG—a politicized rating system that advances the left's agenda.
In Utah, Treasurer Marlo Oaks is fighting S&P Global Ratings, which adopted ESG to make decisions about the credit ratings of state and local governments. He's also warning Americans that it'll soon affect them as well—if it hasn't already.
"Most Americans don't want to be exposed to politics in the workplace and in our choices as consumers, but that's where we're going," Oaks tells The Daily Signal. "They're using our money against us, to drive a political agenda that most of us don't want."

The mass shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, TX has parents and students worried about safety at school. Data gathered by the Washington Post estimates that more than 300,000 students have experienced shootings at school since the 1999 school shooting in Columbine, Colorado. But experts say the impact of school shootings is far more extensive, and even children who don't come into direct contact with violence can be traumatized.
We speak with Hannah Rubin, a 16-year-old activist with March for Our Lives, a youth-led movement pushing for gun control measures.
At times, it’s felt like the whole world tuned in to see the drama unfold between divorced actors Johnny Depp and Amber Heard. The defamation trial dominated the conversation on social media for the last month and a half and sharply divided viewers who took sides.
The jury ultimately ruled in Depp’s favor and decided Heard lied about Depp abusing her. Supporters say Depp should be applauded for defending his reputation. Critics have expressed concern that this verdict could make domestic violence victims afraid to speak up against alleged abusers.
To help provide an analysis of it all, I spoke with a legal expert: former L.A. county prosecutor and Youtube star Emily D. Baker. Her live-streamed coverage of the trial attracted hundreds of thousands of viewers. She’s weighing in on how the jury reached its decision, how celebrity factored into this trial, and her take on the lasting impact.
