We don’t recognize the CNN interviewer, but she managed to bring the mother of a transgender 10-year-old to tears when she relayed the three questions her daughter asked her once they heard that Donald Trump had won the election: would they have to move; would the state take her away; and would she still be able to get her medicine. We’ve heard a lot of Orwellian doublespeak, such as calling abortion “women’s health care,” but we don’t buy into calling puberty blockers and hormones “medicine.” Medicines are meant to treat illness, and it looks like this is a healthy young boy.

Those who convinced him someone’s going to come up and shoot him really should be ashamed of themselves. Forbes reported that 350 trans people were murdered in 2024. Forbes got its number from Transgender Europe’s Trans Murder Monitoring project, and that 350 number is worldwide, not national. “Yet again the report found that most victims were Black and migrant trans women of colour and trans sex workers.” Forbes doesn’t tell us if every one of these people was murdered for being trans, or if they were murdered by other trans or nonbinary people in their lives.

Shouldn’t mom be more worried her son will commit suicide if he can’t get his life-saving medicine under Trump?

CNN is fully indulging it …

We don’t have the full clip so we don’t know if the interviewer got up and gave all the moms comforting hugs for their bravery. A lot of people in the replies are asking, where are the fathers?
