Folk artist Lucy Dacus recently announced she is donating to individuals seeking transgender medical operations in an apparent attempt to get back at President Trump’s executive orders regarding gender and transgender individuals.
Dacus, who is one-third of the Grammy-winning all-female music group "boygenius," told her X followers on Wednesday that she will give $500 to each person who comments on her status with a link to donate to their transitions, up to $10,000.
"If trans people wanna comment surgery gofundmes, I’m gonna give away 10k in $500 increments until it’s gone, & if other people wanna scroll through and make donations, please do," Dacus wrote.
"The government will never be the source of our validation or protection, we have to do it ourselves," the singer added, signaling she made the offer as a political protest.
Dacus’ post came two days after President Trump signed an executive order, titled, "Defending women from gender ideology extremism and restoring biological truth to the federal government."
The EO clarifies that it is U.S. policy to recognize two sexes, male and female, and that men and women are biologically distinct, along with addressing how agencies should handle these directives.
Left-wing critics slammed Trump’s order immediately. ACLU lawyer and trans person Chase Strangio said this week that it "enhances the risk that transgender people face in society."
Dacus’ post went viral, getting over one million views in just over a day, along with a multitude of commenters sharing links to their GoFundMe pages where the singer and her fans could donate to their procedures.

Inside the Transgender Empire

The use of the term ‘assigned at birth” pretends a child comes out of the womb as a hermaphrodite creature and the attending physician must make a determination of sex using some undefined set of factors. The determination made is only preliminary, and as a social construct, is subject to refinement into a variety of genders. Note also that efforts to help children to live according to their self-evident anatomy is called “conversion therapy” and is considered bad. Indoctrination followed by brutal chemical treatment, and surgical actions to alter the natural self is called “gender affirming care” and is good.
That would cover a couple office visits… not much more. Just like a leftie… all show no go.
Thanks for the link to the City Journal article. Coincidentally another article by its author, Christopher Rufo, was posted on FR just today. He describes the living hell that hateful, violence-prone leftwingers — including some of his own neighbors — put him and his family thru.
I never did understand why even years ago folk singers seemed to always be commies, yet country singers often were more likely to be at least somewhat conservative.
I found the article you mentioned. I’ll add it to the essay my son and I are working on concerning transgender and abortion titled “Democrats Are Predatory and Evil”. Fortunately, we just interact with friends and acquaintances. I think we have driven off most progressives/liberals/democrats by now.
