Heritage Foundation president Kevin Roberts recently endorsed taking care away from transgender adults, saying in an episode of the PBD podcast that the organization is currently “running the numbers” on the supposed correlation between gender-affirming surgeries and violence. His proposed solution? “You outlaw it.”
“But where there continues to be disagreement is on what you do with adults. At Heritage, we believe that so-called transgender surgery is bad for anybody because of what you saw in Rhode Island yesterday,” Roberts said, referencing the Monday mass shooting that left three people dead, including the shooter, and three others critically injured, all of whom were related to the shooter. Police have described the attack as targeted and domestic in nature.
“There does seem to be a mounting body of evidence that suggests a correlation between that surgery at any age, mental health issues, and increasingly, although we’re running the numbers on this at Heritage, acts of violence,” Roberts added, falsely.
We should just ban white men then too, eh?
Can we?
At Heritage, we believe that so-called transgender surgery is bad for anybody because of what you saw in Rhode Island yesterday," Roberts said
He conveniently doesn’t mention that the shooter was also a Trump supporting Nazi.
The mass shootings are all just blending together. Which one was this?
Strong contender for Most Useful Idiot of 2026, there. Hard to see anyone topping that with only ten months left.
Yes, ignoring Nazis among their movement and party is a regular feature of conservatives/Republicans.
Breaking News: Inch Given, Mile Taken, more at 11.
To be fair, they took the inch too.
A number of them beyond reckoning. Thousands.
Tens of thousands.
It’s because this choad has only one angry inch to give
Preventing trans people from physically transitioning isn’t going to make them not trans.
No, but they’re trying to exterminate the groups. Once they’re done genocide-ing the immigrants, they’ll add on the other undesirables. That’s why they’re making the camps so big.
By his logic, if one trans person shooting folks should make all trans medicine be banned, the ridiculous amount of white male mass shooters should see all white dudes put into prison camps at birth.
Not only that, but us straight, white dudes do so many shootings that despite there really not being that many trans people they’re still under-represented. It’s not like there were only five shootings and so 20% was by a trans person, there were so many that it’s less than a percent.
It’s not just the flat numbers, but the percentages, too.
By his logic
Nobody here is using that shit.
Logic that is.
This is meant to do what it always did, rile up stupid hicks against a manufactured enemy and provide leverage for politicians who want to succeed on the backs of a fearful mob of hicks.
Heritage Foundation should collectively off themselves publicly.
A Kirk if you will
If anyone wants to help out in private, I won’t complain.
How about they run the numbers on fat cis white guys. Then compare them.
You can really see meal team six’s gravy seals holding the thin crust line here!
What are those plate carriers supposed to cover?
There is a correlation between Christian indoctrination and political violence. I think we should outlaw that. Exposing your children to religion is traumatic and should be considered child abuse.
Opus Dei are quite dangerous, they even support slavery. Kevin is probably part of “the cult within the cult”.
Project 2025 creator needs to feel the same type of fear that he is whipping up.
Viagra is gender-affirming care.
Are they going to ban balding treatments for cismen too? That’s gender affirming care.
Of course he does. He undoubtedly wants to mass-murder trans people, too. Baby steps.
One of the first groups the Nazis targeted even before the night of broken glass were the LGBT. They’re foaming at the mouth with rage about the LGBT, and they operate on a last-hired-first-fired basis. They’ll work their way up to the Ls, Gs, and Bs eventually.
And white liberals will sit on their asses and allow it.
MLK fucking warned us about white “moderates”
They’ll work their way up to the Ls, Gs, and Bs eventually.
That’s all still just parts of phase 1.
Not surprised, this is the main reason why I never said “Well I guess you should be 18 to transition”, I knew gender affirming care bans were never going to be just for minors.
Trump himself gave up the game when he made 19 the minimum age for federal plans.
it’s age 25 in oklahoma, in case you were wondering where the “your brain isn’t mature until 25” lie was going this whole time
Jesus Christ
That’s why I always push back on this stuff when people say it
I’m reminded of the TERFs who say “Oh so you’re keeping the dick? Interesting…” while simultaneously making it nearly impossible to get Genital Reconstruction Surgery
They want us to transition as little as possible. Not because they think it will stop us from being trans but because it makes us easier to identify.
Aww. Does the poor widdle baby get confused feelings about pretty girls?
I know people who have done steroids my entire life and they are against gender affirming care
They will never understand that they are getting gender affirming care. Just for a different gender
Haircuts are gender affirming care. Clothing is gender affirming care. Glasses are gender affirming care.
This man does not deserve the right to life.
