This got removed from politics because “Video links are not allowed” apparently? Pretty weird considering that most politicians say stuff on video nowadays and not really writing articles anymore since the invention of the radio pretty much lol. Hope it’s a better fit here, this is the kind of stuff people should be aware of.

Josh Turek of Iowa, Democrat, comes out with one of the worst anti-trans ads yet.
Not only is it an anti-sports ad, it proposes a ban on federal funding for gender affirming care. That would hit all medicaid and medicare patients, and any ACA federally-subsidized plans as well.
This is where these naive fools fail. They have no answer to this question. They wish they lived in some magical world where the perfect candidate was on the ballot for them to vote for.
Instead, the choice is coming down to D or R. The time for a better Democrat candidate was in the primaries. Come general election time, there’s not much of a choice left.
