GOP Rep. says we need to remove all trans people from streets & the internet

Republican Rep. Ronny Jackson (TX) is just the latest GOP member to use the September 10 murder of MAGA influencer Charlie Kirk to demonize transgender people (even though the suspect in Kirk's slaying wasn't trans).
In a Wednesday interview with the far-right media outlet Newsmax, Jackson said, "[Transgender] people have psychiatric illnesses to start with. These are people that have gender dysphoria, which is a real psychiatric issue. It's the reason that we don't allow them in the military at this particular point, because they have psychiatric issues, and they're not eligible to serve in the military, as anyone else who had any other psychiatric issue would be."
"They have an underlying level of aggressiveness," Jackson added. "We have to treat these people. We have to get them off the streets, and we have to get them off the internet, and we can't let them communicate with each other. I'm all about free speech, but this is a virus, this is a cancer that's spreading across this country."
Republicans are overseeing an ongoing crusade to eradicate trans people from existence. The president has issued several executive orders and made public statements referring to trans people as mentally ill, selfish, dishonorable, deceitful, and undisciplined. He has ordered all federal agencies to deny trans people's existence and to end any trans-inclusive policies, including the provision of gender-affirming care under federally funded healthcare.

Don't panic, but it's OK to be a little paranoid. We all need to pay attention to our surroundings, and try to stay safe.

Which is why I don't blend in and become invisible.
I have a huge rose garden in my front yard. Lots of pretty roses in bloom right now!
My outfits tend to be on the loud side--with my petite hourglass figure everyone sees me!
But my knee lengths skirts are far less revealing that what a lot of GGs wear.

What?! Scary.
How can he claim to be 'for free speech' while also calling to ban trans people from the internet?
Total double standard.
And gender dysphoria appears in the DSM-5 only when distress is present. Gender identity itself is not a mental illness.
So many lies packed into one statement.
Crazy!

When the tide turns, I hope people start calling the MAGA movement an "extremist organization" and call for them to be locked up. Talk about mental illness, that is the pot calling the kettle black.
