Normalize public figures calling anti-trans bigots "Stupid pieces of shit."
Also, it's not hard to just call all this out for what it is: An attack on the trans community. It's not a "debate" about anything.

I feel like for someone to be the leader of the IL democratic assembly they should have a pretty concrete understanding of sexual harassment and have no tolerance for it
“Welch told Capitol News Illinois it wasn’t until he read a Chicago Tribune article last month that he realized his actions — including reacting to the former staffer’s Instagram photos with heart eyes and inviting her to a bar through an encrypted messaging app — made her feel uncomfortable.” 🫠

The FCC on Thursday removed a limit on broadcast television ownership, a move that could usher in more concentration in the media industry.
F.C.C. Removes Limit on Broadcast TV Ownership
