The spectacle of a GOP lawmaker being rendered speechless when directly asked about their transgender status during a hearing is a striking example of the hypocrisy surrounding anti-trans legislation. The lawmaker’s immediate response, declaring the question “inappropriate,” sharply contrasted with the implications of their own proposed bill.
This bill, aimed at restricting transgender girls’ participation in women’s sports, would inevitably subject these young athletes to precisely the type of invasive questioning the lawmaker found so objectionable. The inherent contradiction is jarring: a legislative push to scrutinize the gender identity of minors, yet an outraged rejection when faced with the same scrutiny oneself.… Continue reading

Stephen Miller’s past criticisms of government intervention in drug pricing, including referring to such policies as “communist” and labeling Kamala Harris as “Comrade Kamala,” have resurfaced following President Trump’s executive order implementing “Most Favored Nation” pricing. This policy, which aims to drastically lower prescription drug costs by referencing prices in other countries, directly contradicts Miller’s previously stated positions. Miller’s silence on the order is notable given his outspoken opposition to similar Democratic proposals. The stark contrast highlights the inherent irony of the Trump administration’s expansion of government influence in the pharmaceutical sector.
