Nancy Pelosi’s recent comments defending so-called “gender-affirming care” for children highlight just how out of touch the Democratic Party has become with the American people. In a rambling interview outside a San Francisco VA hospital, Pelosi struggled to articulate her support for irreversible medical procedures on minors, stammering, “Well, that is something that I’m working for at—at—at the national level… Are hoping that we can have gender-affirming care, uh, for—for our trans kids, and that’s… It—it’s, it’s a sad thing for us.” Her incoherent defense of these dangerous practices underscores the extremism that has taken over the Democratic Party—a hill they seem determined to die on, no matter how many elections they lose.
The 2024 election was a clear referendum on the Left’s radical gender ideology, and the American people resoundingly rejected it. Studies showed that one of President Donald Trump’s most effective campaign ads highlighted Kamala Harris’s extreme support for transgender surgeries and hormone treatments for children. Parents across the nation are fed up with men invading women’s spaces—locker rooms, bathrooms, and sports—all under the guise of “inclusivity.” Yet, despite overwhelming public opposition, Democrats like Pelosi continue pushing this agenda, proving they care more about woke activism than the safety and well-being of children.
The Liberal Media’s Complicity in Pushing Radical Gender Ideology
While Pelosi’s incoherent remarks should be national news, the liberal media continues to downplay or outright ignore the dangers of gender ideology. Instead of holding Democrats accountable, outlets like CNN, MSNBC, and The New York Times actively promote the false narrative that mutilating children’s bodies is “healthcare.” They refuse to report on the growing number of detransitioners—young people who were misled into irreversible procedures and now live with lifelong regret. The media’s silence is deafening, but the American people aren’t fooled.

President Trump, on the other hand, has been a steadfast defender of children and parental rights. His administration took bold steps to protect women’s sports and ban dangerous medical experiments on minors. While Democrats push for more radical policies, Trump stands with the majority of Americans who believe in common sense, science, and protecting the innocence of childhood.
