Pics donald trump LGBTQ+ Linda McMahon
Trump’s wrestlemaniac Education Secretary has been wanging on about schools secretly changing children’s gender, and the takedowns were as scathing as she deserved
There are days when we almost miss Donald Trump’s rambling speeches about windmills, and having to choose between death by shark attack or by electrocution from yacht batteries.
Even that level of batshittery – no offence to batshit – is preferable to the transphobic nonsense he and his cohort have been spreading about schools transitioning children without their parents’ knowledge.
The latest to not just drink the Kool-Aid but to bathe in it and inject it straight into her veins is Linda McMahon – the wrestling mogul who is Trump’s Education Secretary.

If she believes that, she’s too stupid to be in charge of education. If she doesn’t, she’s too much of a liar to be in charge of education.
To be clear –
NO SCHOOL IS SECRETLY TRANSITIONING YOUR CHILD.
They’re lying to you. And if you believe this, you’re a fucking idiot. https://t.co/qXrXRGQWMh

The responses were a fine mix of exasperation and sarcasm.

Yes, this happened to me when Biden was president. I sent my grandson to school day and he came back a girl—in a burka. His dad and I still get angry just thinking about it. https://t.co/Temy2WoklE

Our schools are so broke that teachers have to buy their own classroom supplies for the children, but sure, schools are conducting gender transition surgeries at lunchtime.
You really have to have the IQ of a squirrel to believe this nonsense. https://t.co/h1NnrBuHhD

People are not eating cats and dogs.
Kids are not shitting in litter boxes.
And schools are not chopping off penises.
These are not serious people. https://t.co/yFCgACS9Hg— Warren (@swd2) August 24, 2026

School nurse: "If you fill out this twenty-page form and have it signed by a pediatrician and notarized with three witnesses, I can give your child a Tylenol when they have a headache."
Republicans: "Schools are secretly turning children trans."

There is not a single K-12 public school in the United Stares that transitioned any students. Not one.
Y’all think we just keep an operating room back behind the cafeteria or something and trans kids during recess?
People are so dumb. https://t.co/qNydW9H0tr

The US is losing a war that it started, running low on crude oil, pushing mass surveillance, facing a housing / food crisis, destroying the climate, ruining society with AI data centres..
but made-up scenarios about trans people are somehow what keeps everyone occupied https://t.co/j1pqIVTyaH

Can any MAGA give a single name of a child that was secretly transitioned by a public school? Just one name. Then make sure you show how it was paid for and where the kids was for the time and surgeries it took.
Any MAGA? Bueller? Anyone? https://t.co/gGMETKuMwS

The good old days when your day started as a boy & around lunchtime you decided to become a girl. Wow, the nurses office is so “full service”. Although I can’t find the litter box! Maybe the new prayer group knows.

Does ANYONE actually believe this crap?
If you took your son to school in the morning, and got a daughter later that day, return that little girl.

This can’t happen soon enough.
We need to pass policy that makes it illegal with meaningful consequences for any elected official, their staff and gov employees to lie to the public like this. This never happened and it legally can’t ever happen. Only parents/guardians can supply medical consent https://t.co/knmMchxw54
