Riley Gaines hits back at 'Squad' Dem calling her testimony 'transphobic': You're a 'misogynist'
Fox News ^ | 12/5/23 | Houston Keene.

NCAA swimming legend and women's sports advocate Riley Gaines hit back against a "Squad" Democrat after she called her and other witnesses' testimony against transgender males in women's sports "transphobic."

Gaines fired back at Rep. Summer Lee, D-Pa., the ranking member of the House Oversight Subcommittee on Health, after the Squad member took a shot at the witnesses' testimony during her opening remarks.

Lee called the women's testimonies against biological males playing in women's sports "transphobic" – something Gaines did not take lightly.

There's a place for everybody to play sports in this country," Gaines said, noting transgender Americans were included in her view. "But unsafe, unfair and discriminatory practices must stop."

"Inclusion cannot be prioritized over safety and fairness," the NCAA legend concluded in her opening remarks. "And ranking member Lee, if my testimony makes me ‘transphobic,’ then I believe your opening monologue makes you a misogynist."

Lee called a point of order, urging that Gaines' remarks to be struck from the record, but the point of order was withdrawn after a brief discussion.

Gaines' testimony comes alongside several women leaders called as witnesses to discuss the Biden administration's proposed Title IX rule change.

Need four competition categories.

REAL men’s.
REAL women’s.
He/She “men’s”
She/he “Women’s”

XX or XY the determining factor.

It was a great moment. The Republican chair looked a little panicked though. Riley is great. She is single handedly defeating the trans corruption of women's sports. I hope she runs for congress.

Summer Lee, misogynist witch

She has guts. These trans-psychos have already physically attacked her and there’s a strong potential it will happen again.
