Reminder, Title IX is not a "college" law. It affects ALL education programs that accept federal dollars, that means daycare, Headstart, K-12, 4-H, etc. Gender ideology is absolutely coming for the kids, and not just in public schools. ANY school with federal money.
Another wild requirement of the Title IX rule: preferred pronouns are now mandated, even a single use of the "wrong" pronoun can require discipline. The Biden defenders of democracy strike again!
The Biden Title IX rule is unlawful. We just sued on behalf of female athletes and students who have been stripped of dignity, opportunity, and a voice. Because words have meaning, we will win.
@iwf
The new Biden Title IX rules specifically note that locker rooms and bathrooms must be based on gender identity. Girls will be forced to confront male genitalia if they’d like to play sports or pee. Thanks Biden.
@IWF
The Biden Admin’s 1577-page Title IX rule is out, and sure enough they turned the historic rule into a demand that women give up their spaces and privacy to accommodate men. And yes, that will absolutely affect sports.
@IWF
lawsuit coming soon.

The Biden Admin wants to say "sports aren't affected" by its gender ideology Title IX rule. This is a TRICK❗️The Biden Admin argues the regulation doesn't NEED to say sports because Title IX already bans women's sports on its own accord. 1/2
It's not just schools. 🚨The EEOC finalized guidance requiring that men be permitted to shower with women at work—affecting blue-collar, agricultural, and low-wage women particularly. UNREAL. Dissenting statement here:

@andrealucasEEOC
One of the more offensive due process abuses in the Title IX rule: the accused only needs access to a “description” of the evidence, not the any evidence the school actually has. That’s what we call going in blind.
@kissel_adam
One hopes. This is a result of the dissolution of the sexual harassment standard to find a violation after severe OR pervasive conduct rather than requiring both.
Biden DOJ filed this ⬇️in the West Virginia women's sports case. It says that Title IX's text already requires female athletes to accommodate men... and that no regulation can change that demand. 2/2
More madness… Obamacare uses Title IX to define sex discrimination. So, the new Title IX gender identity rule will be used to mandate that doctors and insurers cut off children’s healthy genitals. (In the name of equality!)
@mcsracic
I think they would say that there was “input,” as something like 250k comments were submitted. The mandate covers a ton of people. Any educational program that accepts federal money, even private schools take federal money for things like students with special needs
Good lord this woman is bad at lying. Fani Willis saying she reimbursed her lover in thousands of dollars in cash. But that she did not get it from the bank. It came from... God?
Amazing how many libs are fine to mandate men in girls’ bathrooms/locker rooms because of private “stalls.” If you’re advocating separate stalls, then how about… permitting separate bathrooms/locker rooms? 🤔
Real question for the Biden Admin: If, under new Title IX rule, schools MUST treat individuals in accordance with their gender identity including for bathroom access, will cat-gender individuals be given sufficient access to litter boxes?
More of this. This is complete and total common sense, that Americans overwhelmingly demand. And yet it takes bravery. Be brave. Protect women's sports!

More Ohio House members voted in favor of override than supported initial passage. That's a powerful lesson. Ohioans made clear they deserve to raise their children free from the dangerous gender ideology cult. Our elected representatives should listen:

to discuss Biden's DHS discovering they love border walls and Chicago residents highly irritated about illegal immigrants overtaking their parks. You get what you vote for, people.
Everyone who has paid tens of thousands in interest, and everyone who still is paying on the loans they responsibly privatized for better rates should be furious. Pandemic exceptions are one thing but at some point the govt HAS to treat like people alike.
Justice Jackson focuses on consequences. If Presidents can commit crimes "with abandon," isn't that disastrous? Trump atty focuses on opposite consequences. If Presidents can be thrown in jail for official acts, won't they sit around being useless?

Lucky Hunter gets to disappear thanks to DOJ’s No. 1 priority, but we just lived through an unprecedented under-the-table DOJ deal. I joined a CNN panel to discuss:
It's true. There's no magical power that comes with an impeachment announcement -- you need a vote. Trump's DOJ made that clear legal argument in 2019.
Hunter should have still taken the deal. It was an unfathomably good one, even without the under-the-table agreement to not prosecute him for other things (which was bizarre and unprecedented).
FFS. ESPN did a deep dive into whether schools tweet about men’s or women’s sports more… while having no clue what a woman is. Let’s figure that one out first.

Sure, it's embarrassing that prosecutors say Biden is too diminished to make conscious decisions.
But it's absurd this was part of the calculus.
Imagine if Mueller said Trump colluded with Russia, but possibly too crazy to convict. No one would stand for it.
Adding cameras might be good for transparency, but it'll be bad for the legal strategy. I say it'll bring the case closer to relitigating the election rather than the attacking the elements of a RICO charge.
