On Tuesday, May 19, the U.S. House passed H.R. 2616, the “Stopping Indoctrination and Protecting Kids Act,” by a vote of 217-198. The bill would hand the Trump administration enormous leverage to strip federal funding from any school that “teaches or advances concepts” related to transgender people, codifying into federal law the anti-trans definitions from Trump’s executive order 14168, “Defending Women from Gender Ideology Extremism.” It would also require public schools to forcibly out transgender students to their parents before using their pronouns or chosen names. The bill is significant on its own terms for the harm it would inflict on transgender youth if it became law. But what made Tuesday’s vote especially notable was the eight Democrats who joined every Republican to pass it—the largest Democratic defection on any standalone anti-trans bill of this Congress.
And there it is, the real reason nobody trust America anymore.
Not simply the trans persecution, people have their opinions and feeling about the topic and YADA-YADA, This isn’t about that.
It’s clear Americas politician are ok with Donald even if they pretend to hate him in front of the cameras, weak people in office only looking out for themselves. That nation can’t be trusted.
I don’t blame people for not voting, the idea I have to vote for one of 2 shit birds because “democracy” is braindead and willfully ignores the issues at hand, to the people who feel this way I would them tell them to leave the country For a socity that would appreciate them, it’s the only change they can make in their live that will actually help them.
If solidarity can only be found in the wailing and gnashing pit, then let’s get there. So many Democrats have shown their true allegiances this year.
