Saying no to Biden’s Title IX declaration on trans participation in women’s sports
First it was DeSantis:
Gov. Ron DeSantis said Florida “will not comply” with the Biden administration’s update to federal Title IX regulations that adds protections for transgender students.
“Florida rejects (President) Joe Biden’s attempt to rewrite Title IX,” DeSantis said in a video posted Thursday on social media. “We will not comply, and we will fight back.” …
“We are not going to let Joe Biden undermine the rights of parents, and we are not going to let Joe Biden abuse his constitutional authority to try to impose these policies on us here in Florida,” DeSantis said. …
“We absolutely plan to challenge this betrayal of women in court,” Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody said in a statement.
Then Abbott of Texas:
Governor Greg Abbott today sent a letter to President Joe Biden condemning his recent revision of Title IX, which forces schools to treat biological men as women. The Governor also informed the President that Texas will not adhere to the new rules.
“Title IX was written by Congress to support the advancement of women academically and athletically,” reads the letter. “The law was based on the fundamental premise that there are only two sexes—male and female. You have rewritten Title IX to force schools to treat boys as if they are girls and to accept every student’s self-declared gender identity. This ham-handed effort to impose a leftist belief onto Title IX exceeds your authority as President.
Next we have Louisiana, Mississippi, Montana, and Idaho:
Louisiana’s Republican attorney general announced Monday the state is suing the Biden administration over new Title IX rules … that [expand the definition] to include gender identity and sexual orientation.
Louisiana Gov. Jeff Landry, Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill and Louisiana K-12 Education Superintendent Cade Brumley railed against the new rules during a press conference at the State Capitol, arguing the new federal guidance guts historical precedence from the landmark civil rights legislation.
Louisiana is joined in the lawsuit by Mississippi, Montana and Idaho. The plaintiffs seek an injunction to stop the new rules from taking effect and a temporary restraining order to block enforcement while the lawsuit plays out.
Opponents of the new Title IX rule, which the U.S. Department of Education released last week, argue that conflating gender identity with sex would gut Title IX protections and harm biological women.
Good for them. This will almost certainly end up in the court system.
Have always thought that about 80% of women supported the DEMs, but looks like my guess was off a lot more than a tad.
Not something I’ll spend much time looking for if it’s not handy on the first shot, but am seeing like just 53-58% of of women are supporting DEMs. Is that correct or close?
Still, if that is close, then it is amazing (too me) that women aren’t leaving the DEMs party in droves!?! Males coming in and winning sport championships over women who have spent years of hard work and training. Not to even mention the years that women fought for the right to vote…Jeez.
DEM women w/ children and they apparently support Child Mutilations!? Weird…
”DEM women w/ children and they apparently support Child Mutilations!? Weird…”
Just the unmarried ones who rely on the government for support. Married women vote majority Republican, as do both married and unmarried men.
I am embarassed that Wisconsin is not joining in this, but we have a weasel for a Governor.
Sluts and Slatterns for Brandon! Probablly many with college degrees.

Well, we can now see where the core of the next Civil War is going to form. 😛
As the apocryphal Chinese curse goes, “We live in interesting times.”
Defenders of women, women’s sports, and women’s freedom…and ultimately all of us.
And Truth.
(Not sure why this is so difficult to understand….)
The problem is Democrat, not leftist, policies. Biden & Obama are D-Democrats, and all who vote for Dems vote for this crap.
Abbott missed the opportunity to accurately note the Dem policy to support males winning in, and taking naked showers after competing in, girls’ sports.
Most unmarried voting women care far more about abortion than women’s sport.
The should replace men’s sports with open sports, m/f/q, and restrict women’s sports to XX identify as woman.
We need new words, like q’woman & q’man to better describe our non-binary reality.
}}} The problem is Democrat, not leftist, policies. Biden & Obama are D-Democrats, and all who vote for Dems vote for this crap.
There is no distinction, really, to be made between PostModern Liberals and Democrats. Democrats support PML in every regard possible. And PostModern Liberalism is a social cancer — literally, not figuratively.
While it’s not an absolute 1-1, it’s all too close for it to matter in any significant regard.
}}} We need new words, like q’woman & q’man to better describe our non-binary reality.
We need to stop letting 6% of the population dictate the behavior and the Overton Window for all the rest of us.
LGBTQFHGZW+ deserve to be accepted and allowed — for the most part — to be as they wish (subject to the collective moral imperative, for strictly public behavior among responsible adults). But they don’t get to be celebrated, much less given official authoritative diktat, over the rest of us 94%.
Years ago, I read a book on the psychological origins of political correctness (now woke) and the author pointed out that the PC deny reality and live in fantasy land. If you believe that males can become females by an act of will or taking hormones or surgery, you are living in fantasyland.
Saying NO to “Biden”‘s disregard of the Constitution doesn’t seem to be all that effective…
Student Loan rebates?
Heh, “he”‘ is PROUD to break the law…since any law that would prevent “him” bribing the electorate HAS GOT TO BE illegal… Right?
Weaponizing the DOJ to persecute one’s political opponents?
Meh, they’re against “him” so screw ’em.
DIE? Going after parents? Decimating the military? Concealing efforts to break the law in other areas? Threatening GENUINE whistle-blowers?
Then there’s this:

Who is this “we” who needs new words for homosexuals be they XX or XY?
If you haven’t noticed there have been a myriad of new words forced into society by the alphabet Mafia in the last 20 + years. For some perverse reason there are never enough new words. Almost as if that is a feature of the pathology not a bug.

How has it come to pass that un-elected, unaccountable federal agencies have the right to make laws?
How is it that Congress has been allowed to delegate to non-elected agencies its constitutionally mandated obligation as the sole law making body within the federal govt?
Is congress allowed to pass any law it chooses regarding what it can or cannot do, if it contradicts the US Constitution?
Now, it may be a futile gesture, but where the F are the republicans in Congress? Why are they not roundly criticizing this new law – and it is a law for all intents and purposes?
Can they not file a suit with the SCOTUS challenging the DOE’s decision, and more broadly, challenging the ability of any and all federal agencies to make new laws?
The USA is becoming more and more like the former USSR; the USA now even has their own, home grown Stalinist show trials conducted and/or managed and/or organized by the DOJ; an agency that selectively decides who to pursue and who not to pursue, irrespective of any crimes, or not, committed.
And just like the former USSR, there is no shortage of individuals ready to do the government’s dirty work.
Check out online maps of the number of red vs blue counties in the USA; it is not unreasonable to believe that sooner or later those “red” portions of the USA will want out of the former constitutional Republic that is the present day USA.
}}} Who pushed this alphabet soup perverts and criminals if you look real close
Unless your position is that homosexuals are “perverts” by definition (and yes, to some, it certainly is) the issue is that you have a loud, vocal, and obnoxious minority looking to tell everyone else what to do.
Many gays are only “perverts” by the Gay==perverts definition, they aren’t all bad people, nor are they all obnoxious “dance with me, ’cause I’m gay!” types.
The overall real issue is that we do NOT make any groups deal with their aberrant types, and we do, somewhat, take my initial statement as excusing ALL gays for the actions of a few.
The real problem here, is that you need to hold all groups accountable for their aberrant members — this encourages ALL groups to police themselves. This goes true regardless of whether the group is blacks, gays, or Muslims. Or Christians, for that matter.
For the most part, religious people do this — if someone bombs an abortion clinic or kills employees of one, the fact that someone is Christian as well does not generally mean that they won’t turn that person in if they found out that they did it.
Because Christians police themselves.
We need to make this clear, as an ongoing social standard:
If you don’t like the way WE are policing you, then DO IT YOURSELF, so WE don’t HAVE to do it.
}}} How has it come to pass that un-elected, unaccountable federal agencies have the right to make laws?
Unfortunately, this has actually been the case for something in excess of 40 to 50 years.
It’s not stated that way, but there is a law which states that all a federal agency has to do is publish a proposed “law” in the Federal Register, and, if no one has objected within 90 days, it gains the force of law.
Yeah, it’s been going on for a very long time. And yes, it strikes me as utterly unconstitutional, given that there is nothing in the Constitution which gives Congress the power to delegate its lawmaking authority.
But that’s one of the fun parts of our modern federal government — if it ain’t forbidden, it’s allowed.
This was not the general perception 100 years ago. FDR, I think, was the real first bad actor on this level, though others certainly tried to do shit like this.
As I have commented before, the last truly GREAT PotUS we had was Grover Cleveland. Yeah, it’s been that long. Every PotUS since then has been standing around either directly expanding Federal power themselves, or sitting idly and allowing it to happen.
There are a lot of things I like about Teddy, but he’s the one who really got this ball rolling, by creating a host of these alphabet agencies and taking on jobs which have never, ever, been properly in the Federal bailiwick.
No mystery. You already know: Because a sufficient number of those having the technical status of citizens, or those managing to vote, or able to determine the vote count, prefer, or are satisfied with, it being that way. It’s just the implementation of the managerial welfare state which makes no distinction between the political and the social.
And of course as the domain of interest defined as “social” is much more expansive than that which was historically defined as political, and as “society” has been characterized as so complex as requiring specialist expert opinion and guidance beyond the supposed ken or interest or even capacity of the ordinarily educated man or his political representative, the progressive assumption is that only trained experts are fit to set the rules by which our lives are ordered and maintained.
And for those “gurls of both sexes who jus wanna have fun” that is probably quite alright with them, as long as the water taps can be kept running, skinny jeans are abundant, and abortion is readily available.
“Wine Moms, Proud Thots, Soy Boys and Cucks of the earth, unite! You have nothing to lose that ever meant anything to you anyway!”
Oh wait. They already did.
well calvin coolidge was pretty good, thats why the history books until amity schlaes, quietly dismissed him, hoover chose poorly and hence we had the depression, ike was a nice figurehead, but didn’t really move the ball, and then you have Reagan, who had learned something about the fracas going on the West Coast,
The McCain-Finegold Act was responsible for much of this. Congress members spend their time raising money while staffers write the legislation. Staffers are often future lobbyists so they act accordingly.
Coolidge was worried about the stock market in 1928 but the stock exchange was a state entity and Coolidge believed it was the responsibility of the governor who was, of course, Roosevelt.
true, the downturn could have been managed if they hadn’t insisted on doing stupid things, like most everything hoover did, and fdr compounded,

Conflation of sex and gender (i.e. sex-correlated attributes), and women are indeed politically congruent (“=”) to men. Throw another baby on the barbie, it’s over, right… I mean left? One step forward, two steps backward.
One of the great things about free speech, the Internet, and those emboldened enough by their vainglorious self-worship and triumphalist feelings to let it all hang out in an uninhibited orgy of self-revelation, is the insight we gain into the other. An “other” which is clearly exposed as “other”: a view which we ordinary folk have mostly been denied throughout human, or at least Western, history except perhaps in times of war. And the record persists and cannot be suppressed or hidden. It mostly remains ready to hand.
People now proudly say and reveal things in daily life which they formerly kept hidden so as not to be ostracized or painted as monsters.
What in previous generations were thought to be in number only a relatively few moral freaks – by everyone other than confessors and psychiatrists – turn out to be pretty common.
And you do not have to be a Christian supernaturalist, to marvel at the uncanny assessment of those saints and mystics whose message was that most humans [ and here we merely assume a hypothetical congruence of reality with their major premisses] were, and are, and will be, damned to hell. That is to say, they would deserve to be if there, if there were a truly holy God, and humans received what their once secret now open lives and minds justified.

Well said.
I also like you statement about the shape of the cold civil ware we’re experiencing.
Yes, it’s now the Red States versus the Blue States, and the fundamentalist progressives (actually neo-Marxists) versus the silent majority.
That pretty well defines what is happening. The neo-Marxists are hard at work trying to destroy what was once a law and order, free market society based on Judea-Christian principles.
They have a plan. An egalitarian society where everyone gets paid equally by the state and the state controls the means of production. Something like, ah, Cuba, or Zimbabwe, or North Korea. Only, of course, much better. They’ll do it much better. But first they have to destroy this society and culture. That’s why they push racism, transexual mutilation, men in women’s sports, defund the police and anarchy of all kinds. It’s all meant to destroy us from within.
Here are some items from the list of 45 Communist goals read into the Congressional record in 1963:
“23. Control art critics and directors of art museums.” Our plan is to promote ugliness, repulsive, meaningless art.”
24.Eliminate all laws governing obscenity by calling them “censorship” and a violation of free speech and free press.
25. Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting pornography and obscenity in books, magazines, motion pictures, radio and TV.
26. Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as “normal, natural and healthy.”
27. Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with “social” religion. Discredit the Bible and emphasize the need for intellectual maturity, which does not need a “religious crutch.”
28. Eliminate prayer or any phase of religious expression in the schools on the grounds that it violates the principle of “separation of church and state”
29. Discredit the American Constitution by calling it inadequate, old fashioned, out of step with modern needs, a hindrance to cooperation between nations on a worldwide basis.
30. Discredit the American founding fathers. Present them as selfish aristocrats who had no concern for the “common man.”
31. Belittle all forms of American culture and discourage the teaching of American history on the ground that it was only a minor part of “the big picture.” ”
Does any of this sound familiar? Aren’t they accomplishing their goals?

why do they deserve respect, maybe pity for being so woefully mixed up, in a time not so long ago, we knew where our bearings were, no those who state eternal truths public must be silenced,
certainly the Warren Courts edicts, the blizzard of social legislation in the 50s, had a similar effect, the attack on the founders was early on by Charles Beard, Howard Zinn probably did the mop up operations, the intellectual school of Biblical scholarship did pulverize the common understanding of Christianity, along with parallel currents in Judaism, which leave out the revealed component
and emphasize the direct action part, hence the latter cannot imagine the raging lions that lie in their midst,
those that take the Torah as their guide are likely to be more cognizant of their reality,
on the Christian side, I would say that the likes of Rick Warren and Joel Osteen and this
puerile poorage they serve up, did as much as the fraud of Jim Bakker, (who sadly is still around) to undermine true faith,
Sanctuary states for normal people.
