Congresswoman McBride Announces She Will Comply With Rules Declaring Her a Man
Congresswoman McBride Announces She Will Comply With Rules Declaring Her a Man
The decision comes after Mike Johnson declared that transgender people are not allowed in bathrooms of their gender identity under the provision that he "controls the facilities."
I hate this. It's fucking deplorable. Let her pee wherever she feels comfortable peeing.
There was no immediate reaction from most House Democrats, including leadership
Pathetic, and frankly her going along with it is not much better.
Just disappointed
Completely agree the silence of most House Democrats is shameful, but as for McBride, she isn't giving them the reaction they wanted. This was intended to target her specifically and create a situation where they could point at her response and go "see, the radical transgender has infiltrated government and now he's trying to invade the women's restroom!!1!!!1!!11" Using her response to pivot to economic issues and call them out for trying to distract from the same takes some of the wind out of their sails. It would be different if this legislation wasn't so blatantly targeted.
They'll still try, but it will be harder for them to play the victim here.
Pathetic, and frankly her going along with it is not much better.
Agreed, but she is a politician, and that's what politicians often do.
If the Dems ever regain majorities in the House and Senate, they should introduce bill(s) to install these in the Capitol:
The republicans aren’t going to stop there. They going to start more uneccessary drama.
Bigots and Nazis arent Elementary School Bullies. These far-right lunatics are driven by a want to eradicate a minority from society, not a want for attention. You can't just choose to not give racists attention hoping that they will become less racist.
Ignore them, give them what they want and they will ask you for more. They will gladly compromise with you... before immediately moving the goalposts.
Maybe she should use a urinal in front of all these bigots.
From a distance
I get being disappointed in her (and personally I dislike her for being a Zionist), but I can also understand. Anything she does in terms of like malicious compliance is going to reflect on every trans person. There's also conservative congresswomen who I would not even want to use the same bathroom with, because they would absolutely go out and be like, "I felt threatened," or whatever. Every one of these people has a national platform and is extremely malicious.
I would be tempted in her position to hang out in the men's room doing femme things to make everyone uncomfortable. But I can't really expect her to be comfortable doing that. I hope she understands that they are going to keep pushing, and is just picking her battles and waiting for the right optics to take a stand, though I don't expect that's the case at all.
She should just defecate on her political opponents’ desks. I mean, nothing happened to the criminal trespasser who illegally entered the building in Jan 6th 2021, right?
I'm wondering how they are going to enforce this
Please please make it "normal" to ask girls to show their parts this is the comedy I need
The "normal" that I want to see are single unit, gender-neurtal bathrooms without the massive gaps between panels. If something like this happens quickly, then that cancels out all of the other bathroom bills while benefitting everyone, cis and trans.
Democracy and freedom being held hostage by the Trump regime
Why do Republicans want people with Penises to use the GIRLS Locker Room?
