Feminine Rage: Blake Lively Saga and Tone Death Democrats

03/13/25 • 50 min

March is Women’s History Month, but some leftist influencers are encouraging women to use the month to express “feminine rage.” And some of this “rage” was on full display recently as many female Democrats refused to stand or clap during President Donald Trump’s recent address to Congress. The leftist leaders sat in pink to recognize women, even though they had just voted to block a bill that would protect women’s sports. A few female Democrats took this notion of “rage” it a step further, issuing a cringy “choose your fighter” video on TikTok.

On this week’s edition of “Problematic Women,” Janae Stracke, vice president of outreach and advocacy at The Heritage Foundation and Heritage Action for America, joins the show to discuss the effect of Democrats recent actions on women, and the ongoing budget fight on Capitol Hill.

Also on today’s show, we catch up on the Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni drama and discuss the likely TRUE story behind the fiasco.

Trump’s Big Moments: Democrats Protest, DJ Daniel, and Laken Riley with Natalie Winters

President Donald Trump spoke to a joint session of Congress Tuesday night, declaring “America is back.”

Trump’s speech came just six weeks after he was sworn in as the 47th president, and while it was not an official State of the Union address, the night generated all the pomp and circumstance of such an address. The president’s speech highlighted the stories of Americans who have benefited from his policies and who were directly or indirectly harmed by Biden administration policies.

Republicans stood and cheered all through the night and Democrats, on the other hand, held up signs reading “false” during much of Trump’s address and refused to stand for Trump’s invited guests—including D.J. Daniel, a child with brain cancer Trump made an honorary member of the Secret Service.

On this week’s edition of “Problematic Women,” Natalie Winters, co-host of Steve Bannon's “War Room” and a White House correspondent, joins the show as we discuss the biggest moments from Trump’s speech to the joint session of Congress.

Payton McNabb: Women’s Sports, Delta Zeta, and the Cost of Truth

It would have felt hypocritical to not speak up, Payton McNabb said, remembering how nervous she felt to confront the man standing in the women’s bathroom on her college campus.

For months, McNabb had been advocating for the protection of women’s sports and encouraging other women to do the same. She knew the price of surrendering female only spaces to men after a man spiked a kill shot into her face during a volleyball game when she was just 17 and a senior in high school. The incident left her with a serious concussion, permanently ending her dreams of playing collegiate sports.

So, when McNabb encountered a man in her college bathroom in the spring of 2024, she pulled out her phone, hit record, and ask him what he was doing in the ladies bathroom. McNabb shared the video on social media, and it quickly gained the attention of a wide audience, including her sorority, Delta Zeta.

After meeting with Delta Zeta leadership, McNabb was told she violated the sorority’s “anti-bullying policy,” and was kicked out of the sorority.

Furthermore, the man McNabb confronted filed a Title IX complaint against her at her college and she spent months fighting back against that complaint, but ultimately prevailed and was cleared of all charges.

McNabb, who is barely 20, has already learned there can be a high cost to truth.

McNabb, an ambassador of Independent Women's Forum, joins “Problematic Women” to share her story in her own words. McNabb discusses the challenge of forgiving the man who injured her on the volleyball court, the pain of losing her Delta Zeta community, and what is next as she continues to advocate for the protection of women’s sports and spaces.

Also on today’s show, Emma Waters, Heritage Foundation Tech Policy Center policy analyst, shares a recent social media post from Elon Musk’s son, who now identifies as a woman, claiming that his “assigned sex at birth was a commodity” since he was conceived through in vitro fertilization. Waters discusses the moral questions IVF raises, and how the process stands to negatively affect society at large.
