HRC Article:
WASHINGTON — Last night, President Biden signed the FY25 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) into law, which includes a provision inserted by Speaker Mike Johnson blocking healthcare for the transgender children of military servicemembers. This provision, the first anti-LGBTQ+ federal law enacted since the Defense of Marriage Act in 1996, will rip medically necessary care from the transgender children of thousands of military families – families who make incredible sacrifices in defense of the country each and every day. The last anti-LGBTQ+ federal law that explicitly targeted military servicemembers was Don’t Ask Don’t Tell, which went into effect in 1994.
Biden’s press release:
No service member should have to decide between their family’s health care access and their call to serve our Nation.
It’s funny, considering that I’m incredibly anti-Israel, I just thought that enabling multiple genocides, like you and your ilk so tirelessly worked for, was not actually a solution to Palestinian genocide. Ridiculous, I know! Surely the genocide of American minorities and of Ukrainians will bring peace to Palestine!
Or have you already moved on to the next talking point as so many of your compatriots have done, of “Well yes, American genocide doesn’t help, but it’s only fair if Palestine is genocided that American minorities are genocided too!”
Criticism of those who supply weapons for genocide is not support for genocide. Criticism of those who throw trans people under the bus is also not support for genocide.
Spending a year shouting abuse at anyone who dares to say that Democrats should not be supporting genocide? That shit right there is support for genocide.
We had an election. You can no longer pretend that “We’re second worst” is the issue you and the rest of the pro-genocide wing of the second shittiest party spent a year pretending it was. We tried to warn you, and you interpreted being able to see the writing on the wall as trump support from russians.
Good thing I said that Democrats should not be supporting genocide even at the time. But hey, who needs facts when you can engage in delusions to absolve yourself of your guilt? Keep supporting as many genocides as possible, buddy, I’m sure it’ll eventually work out and your magic political pendulum will swing the other way.
Tried to warn us of… what? That you were going to do your damndest to ensure the GOP got into power and got to execute all their favorite genocides?
That if Democrats continued their support for genocide, they would lose. You just screamed “Russian”! at anyone who dared to say that.
No, genocide loving shit who didn’t pressure Democrats to drop support for genocide accomplished that. And good work. You got the only thing you ever wanted: TRUMP.
So you think that the Dem support of Palestinian genocide is what caused the Dem loss this year? This is fascinating. Literally just outright admitting to the “More genocide is Good, Actually” viewpoint.
lmao, pure projection. You keep licking GOP boots in service to genocide, though, I know genocide is an addiction that’s hard for you to break.
It was one of a number of factors.
Do you suppose they lost because they didn’t sell enough weapons to your favorite person for your favorite activity?
Nice backpedal, lmao.
Nowhere have I said anything even vaguely resembling that, but I guess that your list of talking points isn’t all that great at addressing people with actual political views.
This is a shill accusation.
It’s an accusation that all you have are canned talking points with no relevance to the actual person you’re claiming to argue with. Like those GOP voters who waddle into their polling place with a handy pamphlet telling them who and what to vote for - it’s not that they’re shills. It’s that they have no understanding of politics and utterly lack imagination, relying instead on repetitive tribalist bullshit to engage, for what little that’s worth, in the civic process.
