"When CNN asked the campaign on Monday for any evidence of a school deciding to send a child into gender-affirming surgery without parental consent, the campaign could not provide any. Instead, spokesperson Karoline Leavitt pivoted away from Trump’s specific assertion – emailing a series of articles related to the broader debate about transgender minors, schools, and parental consent."

Tiffany Justice, the #Moms4Liberty co-founder who interviewed Trump, said in an interview: “Are kids getting surgery in school? No they’re not.”

But she continued she was still “thankful to President Trump” for making the claim – since his remark has drawn attention to the important issue of schools facilitating children’s social transitions without parental consent.

Justice: “It grabbed your attention, & we’re talking about it now, & that makes me very happy.” #Trans holybulliesandheadlessmonsters

The pervasive indoctrination she had railed against simply did not exist. Children were not being sexualized, and she could find no examples of critical race theory, an advanced academic concept that examines systemic racism. She’d examined curriculum related to social-emotional learning, which has come under attack by Christian conservatives who say it encourages children to question gender roles and prioritizes feelings over biblical teachings. Instead, Gore found the materials taught children “how to be a good friend, a good human.”

Her defiance has brought her backlash.

Born in Florida’s Brevard County of protests over COVID19 school closures and mask mandates, Moms for Bigotry seemed to appear out of nowhere almost overnight. From there, they quickly spread, intent on smothering diversity from sea to shining sea.

#MOMS4LIBERTY collapsing in two states. The candidates they endorsed losing almost everywhere.
Seems like Crash and Burn, Tea Party Style.
Some combination of repeatedly being exposed for hypocrisy and stupidity has to be part of the equation, no?

How to replicate that with MAGA?
I don't think it is going to be organic, necessarily. people are going to be (more) vigilant & consistently expose this shit for what it is.

The Guardian · Republicans will do anything to ban books, even saying they cause porn addictionBy Arwa Mahdawi

I don’t normally write this sort of article. However, when someone turns out to be stunningly, staggeringly, and infuriatingly hypocritical about #LGBTQ, I can’t resist.
So, I am stooping to a bit of New York Post-style gossip column writing. I can’t help it. Indulge me just this once.
