President Joe Biden issued an executive order on his first day in office, mandating that any schools that receive federal funding must function as if biological males who claim to be females are the same, and vice versa, or risk losing that funding. This pro-transgender policy extends to male athletes who claim their gender identity as a female should allow them to compete on women’s teams, receive women’s scholarships, and be admitted in women’s locker rooms.
“Children should be able to learn without worrying about whether they will be denied access to the restroom, the locker room, or school sports,” the executive order reads, promising that the Biden administration is committed to “prevent and combat discrimination on the basis of gender identity or sexual orientation.”
Biden previously promised to pioneer a radical transgender agenda, telling the mother of an 8-year-old, gender-confused child at a town hall that he would “flat-out change the law” and eliminate former President Donald Trump’s executive orders concerning sex and gender identity. His pledge received support and encouragement from now-Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer.
“Joe Biden said that on his first day of office, he will give transgender students access to sports, bathrooms, and locker rooms in accordance with their gender identity in all federally funded schools. Do you think he has the ability to do this, and do you agree with his decision?” a reporter asked Schumer.
“I agree with the decision, and I know he’ll check things out thoroughly, legally,” Schumer said.
During his campaign, Biden also vowed to use the Department of Education to investigate and address any violations of transgender students’ civil rights, including removing federal school funding or risking legal action. His new executive order also mandates that every agency must act to ensure the enforcement of this new rule within 100 days of Jan. 20.
Under Trump, the Department of Education’s Office of Civil Rights found that a Connecticut policy that allowed biologically male student-athletes who identify as female to participate in female sports violated Title IX. Democrat Rep. Tulsi Gabbard of Hawaii introduced legislation in the House in December that prevents biological men from participating in female sports.

LOL!, I read that as: Girl SCOUTS!................................
This imbecile is just signing anything they put in front of him like Col. Henry Blake in M.A.S.H. The leftist cabal will have everything on their wish list in the first weeks of this Administration.
Party of science....
I remember that episode. It was great. I’m sure they’ll have plenty to go after with Biden in charge.
Thank you for pointing that out. It was posted a day or two ago a political article about how Biden and his staffers obsessively go over his speeches and spend hours and hours rewriting and rehearsing them. Everything he does in terms of a plan speech is a production, similar to a movie. That’s the only time he’s remotely cognizant and competent in speaking anytime he does not have a well with her script in front of him It is a complete disaster.
I do not believe for a second he is the one coming up with these policies or executive orders. I’m sure Trump, as an example, gave the basics of what he wanted to a staffer to write out the exact verbiage for him to sign. However, with Biden I firmly believe they are just throwing things in front of them and say here sign this.
Serena Williams herself admitted that she could not even be competitive with the best male tennis players during an appearance on the David Letterman show in 2011 or so.
“Actually it’s funny, because Andy Murray, he’s been joking about myself and him playing a match. I’m like, ‘Andy, seriously, are you kidding me?’ For me, men's tennis and women's tennis are completely, almost, two separate sports. If I were to play Andy Murray, I would lose 6-0, 6-0 in five to six minutes, maybe 10 minutes. No, it’s true. It’s a completely different sport. The men are a lot faster and they serve harder, they hit harder, it’s just a different game. I love to play women’s tennis. I only want to play girls, because i don’t want to be embarrassed. I would not do the tour, I would not do Billie Jean [King] any disservice. So Andy, stop it. I’m not going to let you kill me."
The video of this appearance is still up on YouTube
This is absolutely insane. What women have to do is BOYCOTT. Refuse to participate until these MEN are banned.
I don’t understand how Democrats indulge a belief brought on by mental illness. I have a trans sister living as a guy. my personnel experience is that those who have it are mentally ill...

Notice how many game shows are on evening tv on the major networks. Granted they are cheaper and easier to work with with the chicom virus but it looks like bread and circuses. Not that I watch any of them. Especially the recycled ones from older established game shows
Just proves that Hollywood hasn’t had a new idea since the 50’s...........................
“The Lottery, with its weekly pay-out of enormous prizes, was the one public event to which the proles paid serious attention. It was probable that there were some millions of proles for whom the Lottery was the principal if not the only reason for remaining alive. It was their delight, their folly, their anodyne, their intellectual stimulant. Where the Lottery was concerned, even people who could barely read and write seemed capable of intricate calculations and staggering feats of memory. There was a whole tribe of men who made their living simply by selling systems, forecasts, and lucky amulets. Winston had nothing to do with the Lottery, which was managed by the Ministry of Plenty, but he was aware (indeed everyone in the party was aware) that the prizes were largely imaginary. Only small sums were actually paid out, the winners of the big prizes being nonexistent persons.”
― George Orwell, 1984
For decades, women have pushed to be in men’s sports. It is only fair that the let men in women’s sports.
Enjoy.
As I have posted repeatedly, If a Demoncrat hisses at you, “Follow the Science. BOOMER!” Just say XX vs XY, laugh at them and walk away..
The fact that it happened concerning tennis is pretty funny. It’s a sport where men and women do compete on the same court. It’s called Mixed Doubles, and it’s very telling. The women struggle to return any serves at all. It’s so silly that our culture is subjected to this stuff, all because of a handful of weirdos.
That’s funny, I seem to recall that under Trump the issue of cutting off funding to seditious cities that don’t recognize federal law was litigated and it was decreed that the President couldn’t even require them to follow other laws if Congress hadn't made that a requirement of the funding, but here we have Biden issuing whatever edict he wants and everyone just has to go along with it.
How does this help America? Seriously!
Isn't that how it was done against President Trump?
Where are the Trump judges that McConnell bragged about getting confirmed?
What was the point if we're not going to use them?
Are the Republicans back to caving at the first sign of resistance? Are they going to sit back and watch Democrats undo the gains of the last four years without even matching the Democrats' methods of putting up a fight?

I had an idea that might be able to ‘solve’ this.
Make the rule apply only if the biological male actually cuts off their genitalia, to become a female (actually a eunuch) and this will stop immediately.......................
