But he has repeatedly mocked transgender people in internal meetings in Washington, according to a government official who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss private conversations in which the person was involved.


Trying to give a damn but just can't.

All this after the letter to California officials.

It hit home. This is how they fight back.

It’s way past time for people with common sense to call “transgender women” by their right name: INSANE!

Do the bureaucrats at HUD really care that much about the gender confused issue?

“Carson expressed concern about “big, hairy men” trying to infiltrate women’s homeless shelters “

Like that would never happen

He might have been able to get away with saying it if his first name was Brenda

So he shouldn’t call big hairy men “big hairy men”? We have too many mentally ill people working in government. They should be RIFed.

If I was Carson I’d send out a memo stating that there will be large transfers of staff to some refurbished buildings in Mooselick Montana and that it’s obvious some people have already “volunteered” for said transfers.

“Carson’s remarks visibly shocked and upset many of the roughly 50 HUD staffers who attended Tuesday’s meeting, and prompted at least one woman to walk out in protest, the staffers said.”

Time for some SERIOUS HOUSECLEANING at HUD. They should have taken out the trash when Trump was inaugurated. Let’s hope they are all so upset they not only “walk out in protest” but “quit in protest.”

Good shot! As a physician and brain surgeon, Carson would be the very best person to determine what is screwed up thinking.

The HUD staff who were bothered by this should all be terminated. Now.
