This fuckin' administration.

Like, hey, if you're going to do something like that, maybe, I don't know, try to get at least some sort of concession out of it? Some sort of baseline protections?

But nah, nothing, just "Hey, maybe we'll offer a little anti-trans policy as a treat."

As I've written before, I'm of the opinion that the sports stuff is complicated, especially as it concerns elite competition readtpa.com/p/lia-thomas-t…

But at this point, with states just implementing policies that totally obliterate trans people's rights to more or less exist (Kansas is trying to make it illegal for trans people to update their names, even -- theguardian.com/us-news/2023/a…), why...

...be like, "Welp, let's tell them that a little anti-trans policy is actually endorsed by the White House"? We are so far past "sports" in the list of priorities here, and the administration seems to (at best) just not get it.

Anyway, I see that Jeff Zients is just doing exactly what we've come to expect from him. Dude is going to destroy Biden's presidency by pushing him to the right.

(Pushing things to the right post-Klain is exactly what Biden brought Zients in to do)
