How soon is she up for reelection? In VA it would be this Nov. Unless her constituents are ok with this being their representation, they need to be reminded of this regularly.

So much blame - and precisely zero of these things were why these shootings happened.

Does she have any kind of self awareness at all?

I’m guessing that’s a rhetorical question, but I’ll offer “fuck no!” anyway.

“From the supportive messages that I’ve received, I gather this is a fairly standard thread to women who are trans allies.
“It is a bit of an odd one, to try to shame me for being trans when I don’t think being trans is anything to hide or be ashamed of.“

Lorna Slater had a great response:
“When I responded on Twitter saying that the trans people I’ve met are kind and brave, it is because I think to make the transition, you have to really do some self evaluation and reflection.
You need to really know who you are and accept who you are, and the consequence of doing that work is that you live an examined, meaningful life.

But denial isn’t a localized phenomenon, I guess.

We can say the same about Caitlyn Jenner, too.

Caitlyn also just isn’t very bright - both were very late transistioners with mountain ranges more opportunities and privilege than other trans women- or anyone else- and both came from highly masculinity defined spheres.
Jennifer put a lot more thought into actions and public presence- and into some public works in areas she’s familiar with. I hope she expands that familiarity and works towards helping trans people more broadly than military service.
There’s a lot of help needed- and that’s a very small slice of the employment world.

Entirely true. The haves in our world have to start reaching out to the have nots if we expect things to improve.

It’s widely understood that the FRC engineered Trump’s ban on transgender people in the military;
