Wow, Delaware really has a jewel of a representative. Continuing with a flippant response to such an insult, afterwards declaring she’s here to make life of her constituents better and refusing to rise to the bait of that mysoginistic POS? I wish there were more politicians like her.
Keating is based as hell to call him out like that. Also lol @ the quick “Thank you madame speaker” response From McBride
Keating replied, “You will not continue it with me unless you introduce a duly elected representative the right way.” Self then adjourned the hearing.
Good for him, standing up for a colleage and due process, too.
If the government feels the need to recognize what’s in our pants, the government needs reninded exactly where our boundaries lie.
What’s in my pants is whatever the fuck I tell them is in my pants.

We have conceal and carry laws for this exact reason. /jk
Happy to see McBride being supported, but where was that support for Al Green?
Sigh, this party sometimes.
Was he misgendered?
Was he on this committee? I have not seen a list of names.I misread a preposition, from instead of for.
Irrelevant.
What you want him to bust into the committee like the koolaid man?
So Al Green can only expect support from his own party if he’s on certain committees?
Sorry, I misread your comment as you were asking where the support FROM Al Green was, not for him.
I think nokturne might have read “from Al Green”. I did at first
You are correct… I did read from. Whoops.
”“I’m not here to fight about bathrooms. I’m here to fight for Delawareans and to bring down costs facing families,” she said."
Fuck yeah. Rock on. I’m sorry she has to face this bullshit, but Delaware is lucky to have her.
I didnt know she was trans- To be totally honest im actually out of the loop on a lot of this, Visually, she looks EXACTLY like a woman (man I wish I could swap genders and pass-)
Dude she passes 100%, there’s not anything to her appearance that looks masculine, and I say this as just someone looking at her first glance. I saw her for the first time and said “Thats deadass a woman, How do you misgender her she’s literally a woman. Are they stupid?” then scrolled the comments and found out she’s trans.
AND THEY STILL MISGENDERED HER??? Nah dude- fuck whoever did that, they’re a prick fr.
(you’re still a prick if you purposefully misgender someone but like- idk if the person looked exactly like man but prefers She/her, my dumbass is gonna be struggling regardless; I can barely remember to eat food during the day. But this scenario is like looking at Janet Mock and calling her a He. WTF??)
(man I wish I could swap genders and pass-)
Should we unpack this or nah?
Anyone hungry for egg salad?
IM NOT TRANS YALL I SWEAR 😭 Sometimes I just wanna wake up one day and be like “Fuck it, im a dude today” And do some real undercover spy type shit and TOTALLY change my identity n shit. like I wanna get to the point where I could meet my friends and they’d be like “Who tf are you??”
GODDDDDDDDD itd be like living a double life- that sounds so cool to me.
i know that sounds goofy as shit but IMAGINE just being able to effortlessly swap entire genders like that, and then being able to go back when I feel like it?! UGHHHHHHHHH THAT BE SO FUCKING COOL
if im gonna be honest- I’d say im “digitally trans” if that makes any sense at all. I play a lotta online games like vrchat, and I fucking hate my voice cus I sound like a toddler, but the characters that I enjoy playing are all masculine men. So im working on getting a voice changer that can totally disguise my voice 😎 I’m still a girl, And I love being a girl lol, but im just sayin if there was a machine I could walk into and BAM im a full blown man, bits and everything…
👀 I’d invest my life saving into that shit
What’s stopping you? 😄
Time, resources, and the fact that I dont want to permanently change my body to achieve it. I have been looking into SFX makeup though, Some women cosplay male characters and its like MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM got damn- they make me weak 😭😭😭
transphobia is just misogyny. period. it’s why every single transphobe is a sexist piece of shit.
“Self later explained himself in a post on X, formerly Twitter, saying that “It is the policy of the United States to recognize two sexes, male and female,””
But she is one of those two fucking sexes you piece of garbage.
Not that we should be looking for logic and reason from the bigots, but an executive order applies to the executive branch.
Maybe Keith Self needs to go back to elementary social studies to figure out which branch he is working for.
He can’t even use this because the very thing he’s referencing (the Trump EO to define the two sexes) defines it by “at conception”. At conception, every fetus begins as female before the other chromosome kicks in. Conclusion, Representative McBride is a woman. But so is he. Not that it matters.
Literally either way, that dumb fuck is wrong.
More accurately at conception everyone is sexless. No one has reproductive organs at conception.
Oh yes of course, but we can’t use “genderless” with these people because they just disengage. It’s slightly easier in my experience to just say we were all female first, which is why males have nipples.

In response, McBride said, “Thank you, Madam Chair,” before beginning her remarks. She was soon cut off by the subcommittee’s ranking member Rep. William Keating, D-Mass., who asked Self to repeat his introduction. He then called McBride “mister” again.
“Mr. Chairman, you are out of order,” Keating shot back. “Mr. Chairman, have you no decency? I mean, I’ve come to know you a little bit. But this is not decent.”
Though Self said it was time to continue the hearing, Keating replied, “You will not continue it with me unless you introduce a duly elected representative the right way.” Self then adjourned the hearing.
Self later explained himself in a post on X, formerly Twitter, saying that “It is the policy of the United States to recognize two sexes, male and female,” referring to President Donald Trump executive order in January.
McBride later wrote on X that “No matter how I’m treated by some colleagues, nothing diminishes my awe and gratitude at getting to represent Delaware in Congress.”
Fascists fashing in addition to being contemptible fuckwits.
You know if these people think the president has the ability to just declare laws then why don’t they just resign? What’s the purpose of a congressman? If he’s just surrendered all the rights and privileges of his office then why does he need to fill his office? Just seems like he’s a burden on the taxpayers at this point. Seems like that’s an inefficiency that could be cut Musk.
Ha, nice, Keating is my Rep.
dude- fuck that guy with an 8 foot poll. This just makes my blood boil. The fact someone can just get away with being a fucking asshole IN BROAD DAYLIGHT? Bro. Imagine the shit he says behind closed doors.
Why are ANY Democrats on Xitter?!
DNC, get your idiot consultants gone already.
Bit of a catch-22 when you’re a public official. It would make sense for them to just use cross-posting client to cover their bases, but I doubt they know that.
but I doubt they know that.
That’s exactly the point. They’re following a playbook from the 90s at best.
Why wouldn’t they be? It’s kinda stupid to just let your enemy run a massive platform without having a presence there.
- because it’s supporting it
- because it’s a fascist cesspool
- ‘the enemy’ runs all social media except Mastodon (for tweet-like things)
- being on Xitter gives Xitter authority and power over their words, not to mention personal data.

“Thank you, Madam Chair,”
Beautiful.
“In response, McBride said, “Thank you, Madam Chair,” before beginning her remarks.“
Perfection.
McBride is truly awe-inspiring. She’s so strong.
Gotta give props to Keating too. It’s refreshing to see a Democrat actually push back.
Not just push back, but push back so effectively. I hope Democrats see how well it works. Fascist are cowards by Nature. When you hit them in the face they fold. Feel free to take that metaphorically and literally.
Fascist lack-of-virtue-signalling.
Vice signalling
Nice.
