This new piece on the Olympic ban on trans women is a good start on looking at the “science” used for the ban. There will be more pieces and there can’t be too many, until this iteration of the IOC’s need to “protect” women also fails. theconversation.com/sex-test-use...

CANTERBURY, England (AP) — Sarah Mullally, a former cancer nurse who became a priest at the age of 40, walked into the cathedral to celebrate her historic election as the first female Archbishop of Canterbury since the post was created more than 1,400 years ago.

MAGA holds a protest with a few thousand people in DC and they attack the capital and brutally assault police officers. Millions upon millions of Democrats hold 3100+ protests nationwide without incident. That tells you all you need to know.
