Delaware Democratic Rep. Sarah McBride is the first transgender lawmaker elected to Congress.
Democratic Masschusetts Rep. Bill Keating had a meltdown on Tuesday, during a House Foreign Affairs subcommittee hearing, after the subcommittee's chairman called transgender Delaware Rep. Sarah McBride "mister."
The exchange occurred during a hearing on arms control and U.S. assistance to Europe. The committee's chairman Keith Self cited a Trump administration order that only recognizes and identifies two genders, which is the person's biological gender.
Self, a Texas Republican, introduced McBride, who was the first transgender lawmaker elected to Congress, as "the representative from Delaware, Mister McBride."
"Thank you madam chair," McBride swiftly responded.
McBride was then interrupted by Keating, who asked Self to repeat the introduction, who again referred to McBride as "mister."
"Mister chairman, you are out of order," Keating exploded. "Mister chairman, have you no decency? I mean, I've come to know you a little bit, but this is not decent!"
Self attempted to continue the hearing, but Keating added that the hearing would not continue with his presence "unless you introduce a duly elected representative the right way." The hearing was then concluded, The Hill reported.

She’s a dude, Jim.
Why was ‘he’ so upset?
He didn’t go Full Nancy Mace and say “Tranny, tranny, tranny”?
Coward.
Rosie has moved to Ireland. Too much winning.
The right response. It’s time to stop playing pretend and start living in reality. It’s only too sad that only a handful of our elected officials seem to have the intestinal fortitude to speak the truth to these delusional morons.
Just call him “Pat”.
Or introduce him as “Member McBride”.
the democrat is not outraged. He knows inside it’s all ridiculous.
This is actually the way forward. If decent people who are sick and tired of the gender fraud insanity would simply quit cowtowing and use the REAL and correct pronouns based on their birth sex (gender is a made-up term with no basis in science).
The Chairman should have given Self one more chance to drop it and then had him removed from the chamber.
No individual can be permitted to stop legislative business
That’s how you stop the nonsense.
If you refer to him as “Napoleon”, he’s just going to ask for a sword.
You have to watch the video (due to the manly voice) to see that the ‘it’ said,
“Thank you, Madame Chair.”
I didn’t hear any critique of that comment nor did I hear any pubbies come unglued, Mr. Hypocrite.
I want to ask what’s wrong with voters in NH, but it’s patently clear there’s a big problem in New England.
Have you no decency? Isn’t that a recycled line from the McCarthy hearings in the 1950s?
I have decided that I identify as a Holstein cow and my pronouns are “MMMMMMMOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!”
She’ll be back. In the meantime I’m sure she’ll be happy in Ireland. Mexico is closer.
Let this be the Democratic platform in the next election.
