I appreciate President @realDonaldTrump signing an initiative to keep biological boys from competing against females.
It’s sad that this had to happen in this day and age, but glad it was done.
And shout out to @Riley_Gaines_ for being part of this initiative to help push this forward. 🇺🇸 🙏
Nobody was saved from starvation by drag shows in Ecuador or trans bollocks in Serbia. If USAID is so vital, then it was stupid to corrupt it to promote far-left ideology.
USAID, under the control of the Democratic left, has been pushing LGBTQ, transgender, and other godless agendas to the world in the name of the United States of America. We the taxpayers have been paying for this to the tune of billions of dollars. Thank you @elonmusk for exposing this—and now President @realDonaldTrump is bringing it to an end. I encourage the State Department to continue providing life-saving aid like food and medicine.
This 'why do you care about a tiny fraction of the population?' line is, and always was, utterly ridiculous.
Gender ideology has undermined freedom of speech, scientific truth, gay rights, and women's and girls' safety, privacy and dignity. It's also caused irreparable physical damage to vulnerable kids.
Nobody voted for it, the vast majority of people disagree with it, yet it has been imposed, top down, by politicians, healthcare bodies, academia, sections of the media, celebrities and even the police. Its activists have threatened and enacted violence on those who've dared oppose it. People have been defamed and discriminated against for questioning it. Jobs have been lost and lives have been ruined, all for the crime of knowing that sex is real and matters.
When the smoke clears, it will be only too evident that this was never about a so-called vulnerable minority, notwithstanding the fact that some very vulnerable people have been harmed. The power dynamics underpinning our society have been reinforced, not dismantled. The loudest voices throughout this entire fiasco have been people insulated from consequences by their wealth and/or status. They aren't likely to find themselves locked in a prison cell with a 6'4" rapist who's decided his name's now Dolores. They don't need state-funded rape crisis centres, nor do they ever frequent high street changing rooms. They simper from talk show sofas about those nasty far-right bigots who don't want penises swinging around the girls' showers, secure in the knowledge that their private pool remains the safe place it always was.
Those who've benefited most from gender identity ideology are men, both trans-identified and not. Some have been rewarded for having a cross-dressing kink by access to all spaces previously reserved for women. Others have parlayed their delicious new victim status into an excuse to threaten, assault and harass women. Non-trans-identified leftybros have found a magnificent platform from which to display their own impeccably progressive credentials, by jeering and sneering at the needs of women and girls, all while patting themselves on the back for giving away rights that aren't theirs.
The actual victims in this mess have been women and children, especially the most vulnerable, gay people who've resisted the movement and paid a horrible price, and regular people working in environments where one misplaced pronoun could see you vilified or constructively dismissed. Do not tell me this is about a tiny minority. This movement has impacted society in disastrous ways, and if you had any sense, you'd be quietly deleting every trace of activist mantras, ad hominem attacks, false equivalence and circular arguments from your X feeds, because the day is fast approaching when you'll want to pretend you always saw through the craziness and never believed it for a second.
Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde is the Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Washington. She's the first woman to hold the position.
She was given a great honor today, a chance to unify America around a Christian message at the dawn of a new administration. Instead, she disgraced herself with a lecture you'd hear on CNN or an episode of The View.
What an embarrassment.
A golden age for America. The era of decline is ending. Now we need to bring this spirit to Britain. The West must be saved and this is the start @realDonaldTrump.
No one with any care at all for women and girls would prevent the whole truth being investigated in order not only to ensure justice for the victims but to protect current and future generations of young girls from such heinous crimes.
Jess Phillips appears to be all mouth.
No, of course not. He's a good egg with some luxury-class beliefs - which is hardly surprising - who clearly loves his country very much.
God Save The King!
This is repulsive. That investigation was done by a committee all of whose members were chosen by Nancy Pelosi, and was produced like a TV show. There was no cross examination of witnesses. The media fell for it, but it was utterly one-sided. A show trial.
The ICC has lost all credibility.
Instead of being an anti-Israel propaganda machine, it must reverse its unlawful arrest warrants against Israeli officials, or face sanctions.
This is a political decision dressed up as a legal one.
It can only bring the ICC into disrepute.
Israel is fighting for survival against Hamas terrorists following the October 7th attacks.
To equate Hamas terrorism with Israeli defensive measures is a disgrace.
