Biden said that he and his administration "strongly opposes" restrictions on gender-affirming care for trans youth in a White House statement released after he signed the bill.

Genuinely I hate this more than I hate the republicans. I’d rather the guy who says “fuck you” while he stabs me in the front than the guy who says “I strongly oppose this” as he stabs me in the back.
Joe Biden is a demon who has done far more evil in his life than Donald Trump could dream of. I hope he dies soon, I hope it’s painful, and part of me hopes hell is real so he can rot there.
Like, Fox vs Wolf I’ll take the fucking wolf, at least I can keep my eyes on it
Listen, fat - there's an election in two years. So ya gotta vote because... I mean... You vote... And democrats support LGBTQ+... I mean... We might?... We won't?... The important thing is... vote!
Then line-item veto that part? You can literally do a line-item veto.
Think that only some state governors can line-item veto and not the president, but that doesn't make his statement any less hollow
🥰
no
The next time a lib brings up Project 2025 they're getting punched in the face.
democrats are just such good sports and gracious losers that they're jumpstarting the next administration's "horrible platform of destroying democracy and the america we love" so they can get even more of it done
What does the right have to complain about?
The American reactionary is the most spoiled rotten demographic in human history.
The bill didn't legalize the execution of anyone suspected of being trans
Aesthetics
This is like the first federal anti LGBT bill in 30 years. Trump didn't do this, Bush didn't do this.
I don't think you have to hand it to Trump given how much state level discrimination he enabled, but Biden has managed to make things a little worse across the country.
This is going to be a selling point for the democrats in the midterms.
“We passed the first anti-lgbt bill in 30 years, not Bush nor Trump! Are we cool yet, America? We’re folksy conservatives just like you!”
A few months ago, I cut contact with a group of libs because they accused me of not caring about trans people over my refusal to vote for Biden back when he was still the expected candidate. Can't really take any pleasure in how I was vindicated, though.

So "burning everything down" is enacting reactionary policy before trump can?
huh i wonder who he's fooling
he's fooling the same people who think he did everything he could to rein in Israel, i.e registered Democrats
This probably sets a new legal precident that will be exploited in the future so it really is a gutwrenching piece of news but also this feels like a punchline after years of the dems pretending to give a shit about trans people.
H a r m. R e d u c t i o n
Burn in hell, ghoul. I hope you have the most painful death anyone can ever imagine.
I'm glad this guy is going to die soon, likely feeling confused and disoriented from dementia while also hopefully remembering that his arrogance and abject failure as a president lead to a second Trump term
eat shit you old bitch
This brain-dead piece of shit has been confirmed to have dementia since like 2021.
I don't say this to exonerate him but to remind you that all the people around him are sus too. As if you ever forgot.
What a piece of shit. Fuck Amerikkka.
Everyone in that admin should be in jail for fraud, as should the accomplices in the media.
Won't happen, but it really should
Yeah like, why is he still allowed to put a fucking pen to paper with what's been revealed recently?
2019 at least. They were hiding him for the whole primary
Joe "more than 2 genders" Biden
But tell me more about how Trump is going to be worse for trans people.
I can't believe they're still letting diminished biden sign stuff
Genuinely if I actually cared about this country I would be saying how Kamala Harris is committing treason every day she doesn’t use the 25th amendment to remove him from office.
Letting a clearly senile, vengeful man continue to be President of the United States is a danger to the US and the world.
Kamala has a legal and moral obligation to remove him from office and it’s fucking crazy that she hasn’t done that. If she did she might’ve also won the fucking election Instead of eating shit like she did.

So much this, didn't vote for her and kinda happy to see her eat shit but she could've had a real chance had she actually invoked the 25th
I also didn’t vote for her, and I’m glad she ate shit given the campaign she ran, but I do wish she had won because she had done better things
How could the Republicans do this!
Maybe the US imperial ghoul squad might be evil or something, I dunno
I expect more visits to Mexican and Cuban Embassies to seek refuge in respective countries.
American Dream is already fading.
Is the idea that people will forget who did this and blame Trump?
Blue MAGA wouldn't care under any curcumstances
I hope this piece of shit chokes on his own blood. And anyone who defends him can suffer the same fate.
Biden is just a hack who has no real convictions outside of that of his handlers. These people have no clue what the real world is like; only a withering husk built by pop culture, and nonsensical, conflicting data as well as some concessions to the billionaire class.
If you forced these people to work a real job for a day, they would probably explode.
