He's got a pen and a phone, and he's fundamentally transforming every corner of America. Your child's school is now in the crosshairs of his social justice warriors, and with it any expectations of privacy and decency.
(Cue Yul Brynner voice… So let it be written. So let it be done!)
The Obama administration is sending out an edict today to every school district in the country, insisting they open bathrooms, locker rooms, and showers to all children, regardless of sex, or risk federal discrimination lawsuits and yanked federal funds. Schools must treat children as transgender and thus entitled to open facilities access as soon as parents say they are, not after a medical diagnosis or birth certificate change. Schools may, however, give all the other kids with healthy gender identities curtains to hide behind or license to use toilet stalls to change.
Because in topsy-turvy SJW world, no one should feel "unwelcome," except, you know, all the normal kids.
"No student should ever have to go through the experience of feeling unwelcome at school or on a college campus," [Education Secretary John B.] King said. "We must ensure that our young people know that whoever they are or wherever they come from, they have the opportunity to get a great education in an environment free from discrimination, harassment and violence."
The only "harassment" here is coming from the LGBT bullies. They've already shoved a redefinition of marriage down our throats, and this is the next front in their all-out war on morality, decency, and common sense. To accommodate their radical agenda the vast majority of us must be inconvenienced, and of course irritated into mindless acceptance of their distorted worldview.
So if every girl in your school now feels "unwelcome" in the locker room when there's a boy showering with her, that's not a Real Problem. Because, "tolerance!" And the onus is on parents to seek "additional privacy" for our daughters, instead of quite reasonably creating a gender-neutral facility for the allegedly transgender child.
Some parents are already fighting back.
Do the rights of boys who identify as girls trump the rights of girls who are born girls?
That question is at the heart of a lawsuit filed by dozens of Illinois parents after the Obama administration's Department of Education strong-armed their school district into allowing a transgender student the right to use all girls' locker rooms.
"The girls are mortified," said Alliance Defending Freedom attorney Jeremy Tedesco, a religious liberty law firm representing some 50 families. "They are in a constant state of fear that their bodies are going to be exposed to a male in these settings. It's a constant state of stress and anxiety for them."
At least one of the plaintiffs, a female student at the high school, was harassed and bullied because she is uncomfortable changing in the same locker room with a biological boy.
While she was in the changing stall, other girls who were in the locker room began calling her names, including "transphobic" and "homophobic," the lawsuit states.
But that's not "bullying," right SJWs? Because to them it's "education." It's "awareness." It's "empowerment."
Which of course is nonsense on stilts.
Our daughters have Rights. And their rights are just as inviolate as the newly-minted rights of the confused teenage boy pretending to be a girl.
Texas Governor Greg Abbott announced he will stand up for our daughters' rights by filing a lawsuit against the Department of Education over the mandate.
I announced today that Texas is fighting this. Obama can't rewrite the Civil Rights Act. He's not a King. #tcot https://t.co/vDgfQPZXjR

God bless Texas. And North Carolina.
I can't wait to see Hillary Clinton try to defend this policy on the campaign trail. It's gonna make her awkward encounter with a West Virginia coal miner look like a walk in the park in comparison.
Republicans could have a field day with this in the general election. Except we've managed to put forth a candidate who agrees with the bathroom bullies.
Oops.
And down the rabbit hole we go.
