I’m surprised everyone doesn’t decide to run for an elected position.They don’t have to know anything, don’t have to do hard work, just have to know how to spout out nonsense and be willing to argue, don’t have to help their constituents at all yet they make a boat load of money.Everyone should run

This is what is so scary. They're always two steps ahead. Making us always in a reactive mode so we can't do the real work.

Dems gotta get some techs, lawyers, and fierce intelligent people working for the best of America!

Hmmmm....maybe "they" are jealous that "they" can't come out of the closet to live a happy life?

More kids have measles in Texas.

(I would assume) More legal residents or citizens have been detained/deported by ICE.

Clear distraction

I would love it if every last Republican was tied down and trans people ran their hands all over their faces. 😱

This will also fill up time so that they don't have to address 47's plummeting approval numbers & empty ports.

Let’s be fair here - insider trading in congress is a sport that is practiced on both sides of the isle.

Congress - red or blue - likes corruption.

A lot. ❤️❤️❤️

Thank you for so clearly putting their hypocrisy into perspective. Support Medicaid and Social Security. Stop demonizing Trans people. They deserve our love and support.

Do people even care about fencing enough that it's an issue? Wow, they are really reaching between this and little girls only getting two dolls for Christmas!

thebluenami.bsky.social•1 day ago

it seems like it's ANYTHING to rile up m@ga and make them mad about SOMETHING

doesn't even seem to matter WHAT it is anymore as long as they stay MAD, and willing to go ballistic at democrats 🤮

angrybitchflo.bsky.social•1 day ago

Something tells me M@ga are thinking about the wrong kind of fencing too... "Marge, those trans people want to mess with our fencing, how dare they!"

ravens-dance.bsky.social•1 day ago

isn't fencing NOT separated by gender?

breckod.bsky.social•22 hours ago

There are both mixed and specific events. There is no safety issue with men fencing vs women of course.

dbeecher.bsky.social•1 day ago

Depends on the event. Smaller local events often are not. Larger competitions that feed into national events are.

And don't forget their cowardice, the #1 thing R's need to distract us from. Their refusal to defend the Constitution they swore an oath to protect, and the abject fear that rules their every decision. We now rely on "swing district" R's , but if the votes are rigged, is there such a thing anymore?

nordicson59n.bsky.social•22 hours ago

Women deserve our own category of sports. Kills me that Rs are the voice for this. Devastating that last night Chris Hayes laughed at the idea of discussing women’s sports. WTF happened to my party?!? Don’t you want our votes anymore?

You don’t represent my district— far from it. I’m a victim- I mean, constituent, of Claudia Tenney (ny) unfortunately. But your actions matter& make a difference for the entire country.

Where is fencing even taking place in college? Is it an east coast thing? I have never heard a peep except every 4 years for a couple days.

Boys and girls fence against one another all the time. There is not really a gender difference in the sport as far as I can tell.

Can you even think of a smaller group to target than trans athletes in fencing?

pishablunk79.bsky.social•1 day ago

Know what I think? Dt unwittingly hit on a trans woman, and now he's pissed at them all. There's always something ego driven behind his unrelenting attacks.

lfeatfan.bsky.social•9 hours ago

Great video, nothing but the truth it's too bad that the MAGA faithful can't see this before they lose their Medicaid. Might give them something to think about besides who's coming up on Fox News next.

madmanmark84.bsky.social•21 hours ago

Yes, a longstanding strategy: I read over half the ad $ the GOP spent last year was targeting trans.

It's the common red meat of his electoral base, appealing both to MAGA and many Biden->Trump voters that gave him the popular vote win, and other parts of coalition just don't care that much.

cory2679.bsky.social•1 day ago

Nobody cares about fencing. Much less trans fencing.

Next they’ll be holding hearings about trans Chinese checkers players. Or trans monopoly players.

icebeard.bsky.social•1 day ago

If it’s not trans athletes, it’s feet on the desk or it’s tan suits or it’s spicy Dijon mustard on hamburgers. It doesn’t matter. The right wing noise machine will find a meaningless distraction.
