In yet another attack in the GOP’s new culture war, Florida’s Republican-controlled legislature passed a bill targeting transgender female athletes at the 11th hour on Wednesday night.
Attacking the L, G, and B doesn’t raise a much money anymore. So they’re coming for the T.
It’s that simple.
We could have cut all these bastards loose in 1860, but nooooo, SOMEBODY thought it made a lot of sense to wage a war to keep them in the club.

For people that want government “out of our lives”, they sure are keen to look at people’s junk.
Desperation. They are afraid that abortion won’t be such a motivator in the future. Do they know something about the Supremes or what?
This is despicable, as who is targeted are children.
And some of these transgender children have Rethug parents. I don’t really get it…
Seems like it might be unfeasible for other reasons, but one way to get around these sorts of sports bans would be to move away from gender-divided sports and maybe focus solely on level of talent. As it is, it helps to reinforce that the genders are differently-abled, even when they aren’t necessarily for a given sport.
Men and women’s lacrosse do seem like functionally different sports (just with the same fields and equipment), but would volleyball or golf be significantly different if genders were intermixed?
There might be other reasons people want to keep them separated, but it might be worth investigating alternatives to render moot this particular rending of garments and gnashing of teeth.
“…the GOP’s increasingly aggressive targeting of trans people signals the party’s desperation for culture wars in the post-Trump era…”
Some wabbits is so-o-o-o stupid.
Put another way, those that don’t learn from history are doomed to repeat it.
“Though the GOP’s increasingly aggressive targeting of trans people signals the party’s desperation for culture wars in the post-Trump era”
Someone’s culture is seeing a much smaller petri dish in its future.
Well, i guess it’s safe to assume that DeSantis won’t be endorsing Caitlyn Jenner as the Republican candidate for Governor in California.
That’s what MTG said.
Neither do they.
No water polo for Rudy.
I refuse to share a swimming pool with Rudy. I don’t care how much chlorine is added.
His head secretes more black ink than a Kraken.
