Marco Rubio threw the gauntlet down to Hillary Clinton, calling her the candidate of yesterday, but if the 2016 Presidential election were held today, who would you vote for?
Republicans have voted to overturn a Biden administration rule that prohibits discrimination against transgender students based on their gender identity.
The House of Representatives voted along party lines, 210-205, for a "disapproval resolution" calling for overturning guidance from the U.S. Department of Education, issued in April, regarding the interpretation of Title IX, the federal law prohibiting sex-based discrimination in educational settings.
The Biden administration has adopted the view -- based on the rationale underlying a 2020 U.S. Supreme Court decision on anti-LGBTQ workplace discrimination -- that gender identity and sexual orientation discrimination are forms of sex-based discrimination.
Right-wing pundit Matt Walsh blasted the Republicans' decision to grant a speaking slot on the first night of the Republican National Convention to model, rapper, and television personality Amber Rose.
Walsh, a far-right influencer with his own podcast who has become known for his doctrinaire social conservatism, attacked the choice of Rose as a messenger for the party.
He noted that the bisexual, biracial influencer has previously expressed support for abortion, has an OnlyFans page, and was the founder of the Los Angeles chapter of the "SlutWalk" protest march, which calls for an end to "rape culture."
Recent polling from Gallup indicates that Republican support for same-sex marriage has dropped significantly since 2022.
Two years ago, 55% of Republican-identified U.S. poll respondents supported allowing same-sex couples to marry, and 56% of Republicans said that gay and lesbian relations were morally acceptable.
But amid a slew of anti-LGBTQ attacks -- primarily targeting transgender rights -- support for any form of LGBTQ rights or LGBTQ visibility has dropped, reports Business Insider.
Only 46% of Republicans now support allowing same-sex couples to marry, and only 40% believe such relationships are morally acceptable.
