Move over Senator Marsha Blackburn. Transgender Olympian Caitlyn Jenner also has some things to say about trans TikTok star Dylan Mulvaney. On Wednesday afternoon, Jenner echoed an earlier tweet from Blackburn, calling a video from Mulvaney “absurdity.” A failed gubernatorial candidate and vocal supporter of all things Republican, Jenner praised the Senator, thanking her for “speaking out and having a backbone.” The comments are especially surprising since Jenner has said in the past that hatred for trans people who don’t pass, or look visibly transgender is “something that needs to change.

Caitlyn Jenner is offering support to a trans golfer named Hailey Davidson, who’s hoping to make the Ladies Professional Golf Association [Lpga] Tour.
Last year, Davidson, 29, underwent gender reassignment surgery and, this summer, she’s been attempting to receive her Lpga Tour card. So far, the athlete has been unsuccessful and a lot of backlash has been generated around the situation. Critics are calling the case unfair to women in sport, as they did earlier this year in the case of Lia Thomas, a professional swimmer.

When wrestler Mack Beggs stepped onto the mat to compete during his days as a high schooler in Texas, he not only faced the opponent in front of him, but often a raft of adversaries in the stands. They booed him and hurled invectives.
“I do think people hate me,” Mack says in the Emmy-nominated documentary Changing the Game. The reason? “There was a huge uproar and controversy with me being trans.”
Beggs found himself twisted into knots — not by another wrestler, but by a state imposing restrictions and regulations on the activities of trans athletes. Beggs wanted to compete against boys, but Texas refused and would only allow him to wrestle girls. When he did wrestle girls, crowds rained down abuse.

“I was just like, why are you being malicious? I’m not going to feed into your negativity,...

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Geo.) on Saturday for some reason demanded that Department of Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg and his husband, Chasten, “stay out of our girls’ bathrooms.”
During a brief speech at a rally headlined by ex-President Donald Trump, Greene touched on the typical points of emphasis for a Maga-devotee such as herself, namely the Jan. 6 insurrection and Hunter Biden’s laptop. The freshman congresswoman — also a full-time online troll who has appeared on the white-nationalist gathering speaker’s circuit — also told her home-state audience that she intends of...
