“Ludicrous”: Democrats Kill Plan for Women’s Museum Because It Would Be About . . . Women!

(WND)—Democrats in the U.S. House have killed a proposal for a Women’s Museum on the National Mall because it would be about … WOMEN!

Applying their anti-science transgender agenda, that men can become women by saying they are women, they rejected the plan because an amendment would provide that the subjects in the museum be biological women.

“The measure came up short in a vote of 204-216 after a handful of conservative GOP lawmakers joined Democrats in tanking the legislation that would secure a site for the forthcoming Smithsonian American Women’s History Museum on the grounds of the Mall,” explained a report from Fox News.

Some Republicans objected to the plan over concerns about whether a women’s history museum was needed. Others were concerned that there weren’t adequate protections against left-wing ideologies from being put on display there.

The report said it was unclear whether Republican leadership would to bring the legislation up for a vote at a later date.

It was the Democratic Women’s Caucus whose members had lobbied against honoring women, specifically because the location would not recognize “transgender women and girls.”

They said limiting a women’s museum to biological women was a “poison pill.”

“The Museum shall be dedicated to preserving, researching, and presenting the history, achievements and lived experiences of biological women in the United States,” an amendment from Rep. Mary Miller, R-Ill., said.

The legislation bans depicting “any biological male as female.”

That simply is putting into the law what President Donald Trump wrote in an executive order last year, barring men being presented as females.

“The addition of the word biological made them all run for the hills,” House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., said. “If that’s controversial in the Democratic Party, we’re in serious trouble. The party that purports to support women, demanding that the museum include biological men.”

Rep. Nicole Malliotakis, R-N.Y., explained, “A women’s history museum is supposed to be dedicated to women, period. And the fact that they’re going to pull their support after overwhelmingly co-sponsoring this bill because the word biological was inserted, to me, is ludicrous.”

Media analysts pointed out that the vote was notable as it came immediately after the release of the DNC “autopsy” report from the party’s failures in the 2024 presidential race that flagged how transgender and identity politics contributed to their defeat.

That report cited Trump’s very successful messaging: “Kamala is for they/them, President Trump is for you.”

We are all exactly the same. There is no such thing as individuality. You will be assimilated.

It finally happened. The commies’ fear of a word has denied women a Women’s History Museum. Will normal women notice and finally stop voting for these clowns?

I’m confused. I thought no one on the left could define what a woman is. Is this a museum of the undefinable being?

I can see how some people think this is a good idea, but speaking as a woman, I’m not sure we realy need it. “Women’s lib” left me cold too except for wanting to get paid the same as men for doing the same job..

Good. Waste of space for something no one is clamoring for, and just creating division.
