Illinois Governor JB Pritzker found himself in a very awkward situation when he was confronted over advocating that men should use women’s bathrooms. The stammering Democrat tried to deny that he had ever taken such a stance during a fiery House Oversight Committee hearing with sanctuary state governors, but Rep. Brandon Gill (R-Texas) showcased a 2017 tweet from Pritzker that stated: “As a protest against Trump’s rescinding protections for trans kids, everyone should use the other gender’s bathroom today!”

Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) is doubling down after proposing to prevent biological men from using women’s facilities at the U.S. Capitol, introducing the Stop the Invasion of Women’s Spaces Act. This measure goes beyond preventing biological men from using women’s facilities at the U.S. Capitol, blocking them from using single-sex spaces for women — restrooms, locker rooms, and changing rooms — at all federally-funded facilities. “This includes public schools and universities, national parks, government buildings, healthcare facilities such as hospitals and clinics, public housing and shelters, and transportation hubs like airports, train stations, and bus terminals,” a press release from...

Republican Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine has signed a bill into law that will prevent schools from allowing students of the opposite sex into restrooms and locker rooms. The legislation, the Protect All Students Act, dubbed the "bathroom bill," was sent to DeWine’s desk earlier this month after the state Senate passed the bill 24-7 on a party-line vote. The House version of the bill was passed before the chamber went on summer break in June. The law will take effect in 90 days and will restrict transgender students from using facilities associated with their gender identities. Republican Ohio Gov. Mike...

Did the Democrats learn anything from the 2024 results? I think that it’s fair to say that voters sent a clear message on issues like men in women’s bathrooms or competing against their daughters.Enter Rep. Nancy Mace, who doesn’t want a man in the women’s room even if the person in question is a “trans woman” elected in Delaware. Well, here is the story:Rep. Nancy Mace, R-S.C., said Tuesday that her effort to ban transgender women from using female bathrooms at the U.S. Capitol is a direct response to the election of Sarah McBride, who is set to be the...

Antifa activist on a Pride Foundation scholarship at Portland State, The Post Millennial can exclusively report. A trans person who threatened to murder congresswoman Nancy Mace and issued calls for author J.K. Rowling to be killed has been identified as a Portland, Ore.

Mace, a Republican from South Carolina, and J.K. Rowling. After...

Thursday morning, Mace destroyed a transgender flag cobbled together with sheets of copy paper, included a message reading “You can’t erase us, Nancy,” according to Mace. “Well then you shouldn’t try to erase women,” Mace said, ripping the sign down, balling it up, and dropping it in a wastebasket. “I have to say for any man that wants to be in a woman’s restroom, bathroom, dressing room, locker room, absolutely not,” she added. The South Carolina congresswoman spurred a media firestorm Monday, announcing she would introduce a resolution enshrining longstanding traditions that bathrooms assigned for use by a biological sex...

House Speaker Mike Johnson has ruled the first transgender member of Congress cannot use the women's restrooms in a decision that will shake the U.S. Capitol. Newly elected Sarah McBride, who will become the first openly transgender lawmaker when sworn into office in January, will have to use the men's facilities. It follows a week of outrage from outspoken Republicans Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., and Nancy Mace, R-S.C., who have called McBride a 'man', a predator and accused her of being 'mentally ill.' Republicans were emboldened by Donald Trump's win in the presidential election. Trump has pledged to stop taxpayer...

It only took two weeks after Election Day for House Republicans to bully Representative-elect Sarah McBride of Delaware, who will become the first openly transgender member of Congress in January.On Monday an exhausting Republican from South Carolina, Representative Nancy Mace, announced plans to introduce a measure that would bar McBride and any other trans women working in the Capitol from using women’s restrooms there. On Wednesday in response, Speaker Mike Johnson announced a move that would prohibit transgender people from using “single-sex facilities” on the House side of the Capitol and in House office buildings, including restrooms, changing rooms and...

House Democrats are on defense over a proposal to ban an incoming transgender lawmaker from using female bathrooms at the Capitol, calling the effort a distraction from real work people want to see done. Democrats were quick to blast Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) for her bill that dropped Monday, which targeted Rep.-elect Sarah McBride (D-DE), the first transgender member of Congress. However, despite outraged posts on social media and calling the GOP proposals “bullying,” several Democratic members are saying that there are better things to do with their time than respond to a “petty” move.

Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) has privately committed to back an effort led by Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) to block biological men from using women’s restrooms in the U.S. Capitol. Mace announced Monday she would introduce a resolution to ban transgender women (biological men) from using biological women’s restrooms at the U.S. Capitol. Johnson, during Tuesday morning’s weekly House Republican Conference meeting, said transgender women won’t be allowed to use women’s restrooms in the Capitol, Politico reports. “He said there’s not going to be any biological men using our restrooms,” Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) told Politico. Mace confirmed Greene’s account,...

Earlier, we told you about Speaker of the House Mike Johnson swatting down a gotcha question from the media about Representative-Elect Sarah McBride. McBride is a 'trans woman', which is a lot of words to say 'man', and is currently in the spotlight because Rep. Nancy Mace doesn't want McBride using the women's restrooms. Some people weren't happy with Johnson's less-than-clear answer on McBride, but hopefully this answer will allay their fears: SPEAKER JOHNSON: "Let me be unequivocally clear. A man is a man and a woman is a woman. And a man cannot become a woman." pic.twitter.com/jkSobuonXb — Breaking911...

As Sam reported earlier, a trans woman (i.e., a man) posted a video saying he'd kill Rep. Nancy Mace by bashing her head in if he ran into her in the women's restroom. It sounds like a good reason to keep men out of women's spaces to us. As you know, Mace is under fire for introducing a House resolution banning men from women's bathrooms, locker rooms, and any other single-sex facilities in the House of Representatives. This is a hot topic because Delaware just elected a trans woman, Sarah McBride, to the House. It turns out this same trans...

Leftists across the Washington, D.C., landscape are erupting in outrage, including at least one death threat on video, by a plan from a female lawmaker that would have men in Congress use restrooms and locker rooms designated for men. And not the facilities provided for women. The war has been sparked by the pending arrival of U.S. Rep. Sarah McBride, a Delaware Democrat, who was born Tim McBride but now styles himself as a woman. "Sarah McBride doesn't get a say in this," Mace said. "This is a biological man trying to force himself into women's spaces, and I'm not...

WASHINGTON — Rep. Nancy Mace, R-S.C., introduced a resolution Monday that would ban transgender women from using female bathrooms in the Capitol just weeks before Democratic Rep.-elect Sarah McBride of Delaware is set to become the first out transgender member of Congress. The measure would prohibit any lawmakers and House employees from “using single-sex facilities other than those corresponding to their biological sex.” Asked by reporters whether her resolution was meant to target a marginalized person, Mace said, “Sarah McBride doesn’t get a say in this.” “This is a biological man trying to force himself into women’s spaces, and I’m...

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- A federal judge has dismissed a lawsuit challenging a Tennessee law that bans transgender students and staff from using school bathrooms or locker rooms that match their gender identities. A transgender student, identified only as D.H., filed the lawsuit nearly two years ago, saying her school stopped supporting her social transition after the Republican-dominant Statehouse and GOP Gov. Bill Lee enacted several policies targeting accommodations for transgender people. The school instead accommodated the student by allowing her to use one of four single-occupancy restrooms. However, according to D.H.'s attorneys, the accommodation caused severe stress, leading to the...

LGBT activists are trying to make it impossible to report violations of laws protecting women and children, putting real people in danger.In an environment of endless protest from the left, trans activists have moved from public disruption to simply disabling systems they do not like. On May 1, 2024, Utah launched a reporting form to enforce H.B. 257, a law signed by Gov. Spencer Cox in January that protects sex-designated spaces such as restrooms or locker rooms from intrusions by members of the opposite sex. The state auditor is required to investigate these reports, but within a week, the office...

Under new federal guidelines, an employer would be guilty of harassment for requiring someone to use a restroom that comports with his or her biological sex, or for referring to someone by a pronoun the person doesn’t want used. The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission published the guidance on Monday. The guidance passed on a 3-2 vote, along party lines on Friday, a source familiar with the EEOC confirmed. “Harassing conduct based on sexual orientation or gender identity includes … repeated and intentional use of a name or pronoun inconsistent with the individual’s known gender identity (misgendering) or the denial of...

High school students at a New York high school staged a massive walk-out protest this week in opposition to the district’s attempts to force them to share restrooms with the opposite gender, in the name of “transgender” acceptance.Breitbart reports that the Wappingers Central School District, which oversees John Jay High School and other campuses, is set to allow students to choose whichever restrooms they want to use, rather than assigning them on the basis of their actual gender.The protest consisted entirely of students who do not support the policy, with one student, Shauna Neilan, saying that “a bunch of people...

Mark Robinson passed stage one of the transgender insanity litmus test with flying colors. His governor primary competitors did not.For vowing to defend women in North Carolina from men who infiltrate female-designated spaces, something a majority of voters support, North Carolina Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson was criticized by two Republican gubernatorial candidates in his state. Robinson is also campaigning for governor.Robinson told attendees at a campaign event in the beginning of February that he is committed to keeping men out of women’s sports and bathrooms. “We’ve already passed a law,” Robinson said, alluding to the Republican General Assembly’s overrides of...

North Carolina's Lt. Governor Mark Robinson has laid out how he wants to have transgender people arrested for using women's toilets. Footage shows him addressing people during a campaign rally in Greenville to be the state's next governor earlier this month. Robinson can be heard telling a crowd that transwomen should be arrested for using a women's bathroom. He says: 'We're going to defend women in this state. That means if you're a man on Friday night, and all the sudden on Saturday, you feel like a woman, and you want to go in the women's bathroom in the mall,...
