GOP Lawmakers Team Up to Define Male and Female by Biology
( DurableBook )
Fascinating to watch the party of Christian Dominion be the one to argue that people's rights ought to be based on the material reality of their bodies and not on their presumptive souls.
Really drives home how impressively terrible the Democratic party has become.

Also I think the Republican party is changing a bit these days. [...] But honestly, with the Dems pushing so many of their supporters out of the party because of the purity spiral, a lot of different voices are now 'Republican', and many of the old hated members of the GOP are being replaced by Trumpers and straight-up populists.
What an interesting time to be alive.

I’ve been saying it for a while.
Politically homeless liberals are going to start voting Republican.
Their left-leaning slant will help more moderate Republicans get elected.
The face of the GOP will start getting browner and more urban as well.
If the Dems continue to cling to unpopular priorities, we might just see the Republicans move closer to being the party of Lincoln again.
The odds of this happening are slim but it’s not impossible.

I think it's interesting that Trump, Musk, and RFK are all former democrats. What is this - the republican party is now the party of democratic party rejects?
I just think it's interesting.

I don't support the GOP, and they have absolutely no interest of women at heart, but it would be nice to at least have legal sex-based reality be a thing again - like yeah, abortion is very much a legal sex based reality [..], and no, there aren't hundreds of thousands of TiPs jumping ship in sports to play for the opposite sex, but I would like bathrooms to be BATHROOMS again.
[...] it's just so fucking annoying when men want to be recognized legally as women when that will never fucking happen biologically!!!
edit to add: the ending is so interesting and really echoes what we say here. unfortunately that blows up in our face because it makes us look like we're (all) bible thumping republicans. no. we just want males to leave us the fuck alone.
