Escaping Tyranny: Family Flees WA After CPS Targets Their Newborn
Send us a textWhen LaToya Richards' four-month-old daughter Harper fell from a changing table, what should have been a routine precautionary doctor's visit spiraled into a months-long nightmare that nearly destroyed their family. This powerful episode exposes the terrifying reality of medical kidnapping in blue states and how quickly parental rights can be stripped away by zealous government agencies.Bryce and LaToya Richards share the minute-by-minute account of their ordeal - from hospital staff who initially reassured them that changing table falls were common, to social workers who appeared at their door, to the seven officers with battering rams who came to forcibly remove their daughter. Their story reveals how exercising constitutional rights can be weaponized against parents, with CPS text messages later obtained through FOIA requests showing officials mocking their legal choices with comments like "it's their constitutional right, lol."The conversation takes listeners deep into the mechanics of how these systems operate. We discover the financial incentives driving child removal, how evidence that would exonerate parents is deliberately omitted from reports, and why conservative families appear to be disproportionately targeted. Though all medical tests eventually cleared the Richards of any wrongdoing, they faced a nearly year-long battle to be fully exonerated - a battle that ultimately drove them to leave Washington state for Texas.This episode isn't just a cautionary tale; it's a practical guide for parents. The Richards offer specific strategies for protecting your family, from understanding your rights to creating emergency plans. Their experience illuminates why more families are fleeing blue states and provides crucial information about how state residency affects jurisdictional protection of your children.Whether you're a parent concerned about government overreach or simply value constitutional freedoms, this conversation reveals uncomfortable truths about systems supposedly designed to protect our most vulnerable. Listen, share, and prepare - before your family faces a similar nightmare.Support the showLearn more about Conservative Ladies of America: Conservative Ladies of America - Conservative Ladies of AmericaEmail me: info@juliebarrett.usConnect with me on social!(2) FacebookJulie Barrett (@juliecbarrett) / X (twitter.com)IG: @realjuliebarrett Conservative Podcast | Julie Barrett Womansplaining

Uncovering the CDC's Mental Health Strategies for Schools - Episode 153
Send us a textThe agenda to push mental health into schools should be a top concern for all Americans, regardless of if you have children in school. Today we're taking a look at a recent social media campaign by the CDC to push for mental health strategies in school. One of the biggest issues with mental health care in schools is the circumventing of the parents. In many states, children over a certain age, usually around age thirteen, the children can get mental health care without parental consent. It's critical that parents are involved in the health care and the mental health care of their children. Parents have a right and a duty to be involved with the care of their children. The push for mental health care in the government education system is one of the biggest ways that the government is overstepping their bounds and circumventing parental rights. And in many states, many of these deep blue states, Washington, Maine, New York, they are actually making it so that parents don't even get notified about this. In Washington state, parents can't even get their child's mental health records.So why is the government so intent on withholding mental health information from parents? Because they're doing something that they want to hide.Go down the rabbit hole with these links: https://www.cdc.gov/abes/results/sexual-identity.html https://www.cdc.gov/healthyyouth/mental-health/mental-health-numbers.html https://www.cdc.gov/healthyyouth/mental-health-action-guide/index.html https://conservativeladiesofamerica.com/surgeon-general-advisory-youth-mental-health-crisis/Support the showLearn more about Conservative Ladies of America: Conservative Ladies of America - Conservative Ladies of AmericaEmail me: info@juliebarrett.usConnect with me on social!(2) FacebookJulie Barrett (@juliecbarrett) / X (twitter.com)IG: @realjuliebarrett Conservative Podcast | Julie Barrett Womansplaining
