Kobach’s campaign was funded in part by prominent white supremacists and anti-immigrant hate groups.
Last year he resigned from the board of Steve Bannon’s private border wall scam outfit and unlike others involved, he has somehow evaded prosecution.
That same day he appeared on Bannon’s show to compare Biden to Hitler. Then he complained that Republicans are being “demonized.”
These Republicans’ need to quit obsessing about Transwomen’s junk!

The Cruelty Is The Point
It doesn’t have to make sense. It just has to hurt.

They don’t want to be elected to represent us. They want to be elected to control and dominate us.

Why do you keep attacking the transgendered?
Easy target.
Like school kids.
Hate sells. The GOP sells hate.

Exactly. The GOP would be peddling something else if hate didn’t sell as well as it did.
Hmmm, should my birth certificate have stated the names of my birth parents or, as it does, state the names of my adoptive parents? If that can be changed, why not the sex…not to mention intersex children where it’s ambiguous….or surgically altered? Birth certificates aren’t %100 accurate to begin with. This is just cruelty in action.

Rethugs have been winning elections (and getting them close enough to steal (aka Dubya)) for a long while now by using a variety of tools: Gerrymandering, voter suppression, etc.
Among those tools is racism, bigotry, and xenophobia, intended to energize their base and also to scare the low-information voters in the middle who can be readily fooled into thinking there is some kind of ‘crisis’ that must be stopped at all costs.
In the 1950s, it was communists, Black people, and gay people. In the 1960s, it was “radical militant” hippies and Black people. In the 1970s and 80s, it was “radical” feminists and again, Black and gay people. 1990s, immigrants and Black people. 2000s, Muslims and Black people, with LGBTQ folks making a strong reappearance.
Anyway, now Rethugs have combined them all together, but their main focus is on immigrants and LGBTQ people, along with Black folks.
Always it’s the “hatred and fear of other” they pound upon, election after election.

We have been defined by them as “other”. As “other”, we are not entitled to any rights. Right out of Nazi playbook in the 1930’s.
Jesus fucking Christ, why is this such a big fucking issue to you filthy pukes??
Why can’t you just mind your own fucking business? Trans people have absolutely nothing to do with you, why can’t you even try walking a mile in their shoes? You know, like your (false, dead) god told you to do?
Fascists always need a nearly powerless underclass to scapegoat, oppress, and persecute. For some of them, the anti-Semitism is a little too on-target, so now it’s LGBTQ people, with a sharp focus on all the trans folks.

So, I am going to ask the question that conservatives just LOVE to ask and use against us: What standing does he have? On what basis is HE legally affected or pained by the use of an ‘X’ or other marker other than ‘M,’ or ‘F’ on a birth certificate, or for people requesting changes to said indications? He isn’t. The state of Kansas isn’t. The citizens are not. It is a fucking letter as far as he or the bigots should be concerned.
I don’t see how this should even be considered — judicial bias notwithstanding.
Show us where the “X” touched you…

Because that will really solve the problem of …of …of what, exactly?
This will solve the problem of people figuring out what the real problems are and demanding that they be fixed.
As my mother used to say, “You have way too much free time on your hands sonny.”
It’s all about outing all Transwomen because now they are going after Transfolks that can blend in.

And then after he does all this relentless persecution of immigrants and trans people, Kobach
complained that Republicans are being “demonized.”
I don’t know whether to file this under “added extra irony” or “zero self-awareness”.
