Under the last presidential administration, progressive politicians made the expansion of transgender rights their raison d’etre. They happily marched in lockstep to President Joe Biden’s executive order directing every federal agency chief to prohibit discrimination based on gender expression or identity—case law to the contrary be damned.
Now, however, those same politicians are apoplectic over the current administration’s return to biological reality, the rule of law and common sense.
Leading the charge are Reps. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.), Mark Takano (D-Calif.) and Gerry Connolly (D-Va.). In a letter to acting director of the Office of Personnel Management Charles Ezell, the trio stridently assert that President Trump’s executive order recognizing a government-wide “two sexes” policy and the accompanying memorandum guiding its implementation are unconstitutional.
One of the three has a law degree, but that certainly doesn’t bolster their cock-eyed legal conclusions.
