Opinion What Liz Cheney and other honorable Republicans should do next

I guess I have to spell it out. Of course. It was federal policy under two highly disparate presidents. It's recommended as policy by every major medical association in the country. It's been affirmed by a highly conservative SCOTUS.

So are they ALL extremists? Or it it you?

I'm an extremely extreme extremist, but I haven't met anyone who thinks this is good policy.
Let's have a poll and see where HORT sits.

I've never thought about abortion.



Now look at which one of the topics being discussed requires tax payers to foot the bill.

It's super fitting that you haven't thought about abortion yet have 7 pages of posts that you've made that contain "abortion". Very much on brand for you to get fixated on something you haven't thought about.

I suspect more abortions are performed in prisons than sex changes. One poster cited that 0 sex changes occurred during Trump's term, not a very big tax payer bill.

You mean the same policy that was in place in federal prisons under Trump?

• In 2019, Vice President Kamala Harris did express support for a policy that would give access to trans people who depend on state-funded health care — including inmates and detained immigrants — to gender-affirming care, which includes surgery.
• Harris and her campaign have declined to say whether she still supported it in 2024.
• However, it has been the policy in federal prisons since at least 2016, according to Bureau of Federal Prisons' guidance issued in 2016 and updated in 2022. Both President Donald Trump and President Joe Biden have maintained it. The policy follows the medical recommendations of every major medical association in the U.S.
• In 2022, a court ordered the first gender-affirming surgery for a trans federal inmate, affirming this long-standing policy. In 2023, the U.S. Supreme Court allowed an appeal to stand that ruled gender dysphoria could be included in the Americans with Disabilities Act.

You tell me? Is it a 'moderate' position, or not?

LOL - Trump never said he supported it, Harris campaigns on it being a promise she'll keep.

Gasp, I wonder if that will rile up the usual suspects or not

I don't give a rat's ass what a random message board thinks but I can definitely see you being led by the nose by others.

Is the distribution coming out as you would have expected for a ‘moderate’ position?

Look up, dumbass. There was a time not so long ago where gay marriage would have gotten similar results.

All this goofy fixation over prison sex change operations being defined as either liberal or moderate - are you kidding me? How about a discussion of something far more important - whether or not we want a convicted felon in the White House and a man who tried to overturn the results of an election.

The American public will decide that question.
