Tulsi Gabbard hits Fox News to bash gender neutral language less than 24 hours after exiting Congres

Less than 24 hours after exiting the U.S. House of Representatives, former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard immediately hit Fox News to trash the House’s recent change on gendered language, claiming it denies “the very biological existence of women.”

Under the new rules, passed by the House yesterday, gendered words like mother, father, brother, and sister will no longer be used to “honor all gender identities by changing pronouns and familial relationships in the House rules to be gender neutral.”

Speaking to admitted gay basher Tucker Carlson, Gabbard argued that the new rules don’t promote diversity and inclusivity.

“It absolutely does the very opposite of that,” she said. “It’s the height of hypocrisy for people who claim to be the champions of rights for women to deny the very biological existence of women.”

Even though her bigotry was known. What was that about? Was it ignored, if so why?

I despised her from the beginning. I do acknowledge that people's views evolve...but I never trusted her.

... be hired at FOX. Her logic matches their logic, here... the change is to promote women to equal opportunities, not deny their existence. This is typical FOX/Tucker logic...
