They did act. Absolutely 100%. Their remit was to make sure Trump wasn't implicated, and once she got near that, they did their job as they were asked to do. We really need to stop this shock, horror stuff and acknowledge that we're not heading to authoritarianism at all. We got there months ago.

What's the percentage of trans athletes in American schools? About 0.01%? I read somewhere that we're talking about 17 people across the whole country. This is a big nothing burger given the numbers, so yeah - it's anti-trans.
