These anti trans bills are huge threats to civil liberties and we should do everything in our power to fight them https://www.erininthemorning.com/p/nancy-maces-federal-trans-bathroom
Nancy Mace's Federal Trans Bathroom Ban Would Apply To Major Airports, Hindering Travel

Congresswoman Nancy Mace, who has targeted Congresswoman Sarah McBride with a bathroom ban in the capitol, is now pushing a sweeping federal bathroom ban for trans people.

@taylorlorenz Being obsessed with the equipment of another human being inside a shared bathroom is creepy. GOP are creepy..
@taylorlorenz All I can say is that Mitch McConnell was right. When Democrats wanted to eliminate the filibuster to push through progressive legislation, he said something along the lines of, "Some day, you'll wish you still had it." That day may be next year when fascist bills like this ooze out of the House and the only way they can be stopped is by a filibuster.
@AlgoCompSynth @taylorlorenz except if we had killed the filibuster we might've been able to actually pass some legislation and get reelected
@aburka Yes, and if Republicans / Mitch McConnell had a conscience, they would have convicted Trump for extorting the President of Ukraine. I'm not a huge fan of Mike Pence but at least he has a conscience, and probably wouldn't have listened to quacks during the first days of the pandemic.
@AlgoCompSynth @taylorlorenz No. McConnell was scamming you. The party in power can suspend the fillibuster, just like he did in 2020 to ram through a 3rd SCotUS pick for Trump.
@taylorlorenz Just to be clear, Mace isn't really a true believer in the way this might suggest. She IS a bigot, but in the garden-variety, "I don't like anything or anyone I don't understand, which is a LOT, and I find queer people icky and don't give a shit about anyone buy myself." This is all about her 'brand', because she's a useless turd and this is how you get good political work in a backwards place like South Carolina.
@taylorlorenz genuinely asking, how do you determine that a ‘real trans-person’ would use a bathroom and not some pervert that ‘pretends’ to be the ‘real trans-person’?
@taylorlorenz Nancy Mace is her own punishment.

@taylorlorenz outlaw all bathrooms at the federal level. No plane toilets, no one in Congress can pee.

I hate that this garbage has come back in vogue. 🙄

@taylorlorenz Sometimes I just can't believe it. Just take a step back and think about everything that person had to do to be in that position. I mean, it's a life story. But what all that effort is used to fix a fake problem that might be annoying at worst if you're close minded. There is so many things they could focus on. I don't get it.
@taylorlorenz you platformed a terf
