The debate over transgender issues—and in particular, medical interventions for transgender children—continues to rage as one of the greatest battles in our nation’s current culture wars.

Now Pres. Biden—in concert with trans-activists—has discovered an unlikely tool with the potential to upend this debate altogether: Religion.

Indeed, the trans movement has vocally emerged as a new religion for the left—with Biden aching to be their priest and pastor.

Along the way, both the president and activists are painting their opponents—which include Florida and its Governor Ron DeSantis—as the enemies of the faith.

Speaking with guest host of The Daily Show, Kal Penn, earlier this week, Biden slammed Florida legislation—which outlaws puberty blockers, hormone treatments, and so-called gender-affirming surgeries for children—as “sinful.”

“What’s going on in Florida is, as my mother would say, ‘close to sinful.’ It’s just terrible what they’re doing,” said Biden before proceeding to call the legislation “cruel.”

It’s pretty amazing and shocking. 10 years ago, these trannies would have been committed to the looney bin where they belong. It’s inconceivable that things could change so rapidly. And it all started with the admonishment to “bigots” that “we just want to get married and be left alone.”

It’s a head feint. Getting the Right spun up over transexualism distracts them from the progress the Left is making subverting the new case law stemming from SCOTUS’s overturning of Roe v Wade.
