.@ArielleScarcell has been attacked mercilessly for speaking out against the radical LGBTQ community.

It takes REAL guts to stand against today’s “woke” insanity.
I have nothing but respect for Arielle and other people who walk away from the Left. ?pic.twitter.com/gxaN92Avry

A Gay Milestone, Ignored or Disparaged
12+ hours since a Republican President made history by appointing @RichardGrenell as the country’s first openly gay cabinet official…and not a peep from @HRC.

From Andrew Sullivan, who is No Fan of our president:
The Human Rights Campaign’s Twitter feed has made no mention at all — even as they are rightly touting the first lesbian mother in Congress. Why is the first openly gay Cabinet member a nonevent? Because he’s a conservative. And to the activist left and too many of the Establishment liberals in the gay movement, that means he’s not really gay.
Ric Grenell just became the first-ever openly gay member of the Cabinet in U.S. history. You missed that? So did everyone else. Hate him or love him, it's a landmark. https://t.co/1imqE6pC3H

Strange Bedfellows
Earlier, I made a similar point about conservatives and LGB critics of trans radicalism, but focused on opposition to the child transition movement.

I have conservative Christians in my feed celebrating a radical feminist lesbian while progressive queer advocates dismiss the notion of even interacting with her because she holds a single view they find heretical.

Fearless Political Predictions
If Pete Buttigieg wins the nomination: His inexperience and embrace of many extreme positions (which he doesn’t seem to realize are, from the viewpoints of a great many Americans, truly extreme, especially his abortion absolutism), means Trump wins.
If Bernie Sanders wins the nomination: The exposure of his years lionizing communist dictatorships, which his fellow Democrats have given him a pass on (hoping to pick up his supporters), and the far-left economic-redistributionist policies he still holds mean Trump wins in a landslide.
If Joe Biden wins the nomination: He increasingly seems old and befuddled and Trump wins.
If Mike Bloomberg wins the nomination: Trump is the “blue-collar billionaire”; Bloomberg is just a globalist capitalist who champions policies that hollowed out industrial America. Trump wins.
If Elizabeth Warren wins the nomination: She won’t.
If Amy Klobuchar wins the nomination: At this point, she’s a wild card who, if she hews toward moderate, centrist positions, has a shot. But she hasn’t really been tested and vetted, so odds are still Trump wins.
Today I asked @amyklobuchar if there is room in her coalition for pro-life people. She said yes of course. I asked if she’d try to find common ground on bringing down the number of abortions.

She said “Yes. Yes.” And told me about her work in the adoption caucus in the Senate. pic.twitter.com/CIvfMSulEE

Sanders is clearly the frontrunner at this point. The moderate lane is fractured. If Democrats wish to challenge Sanders internally, Biden and Warren both need to step out now, and Buttigieg and Klobuchar are going to have to determine before Super Tuesday which one is viable.

Protect Gay Kids from Conversion Therapy
We are advocating the dangerous and unethical use of puberty blockers, electively, on children and cross hormone therapy and elective plastic surgery for minors, should be illegal. https://t.co/x37B369xya
— Chad Felix Greene (@chadfelixg) January 31, 2020
When these organizations manufacture study conclusions to confirm social and political agendas, their authority is no longer recognized and the people must act to legally prevent them from harming children. https://t.co/x37B369xya

My daughter was only a year older than this when she wanted to transition. We never referred to her as a boy. She’s now a young adult & a happy lesbian who says her younger self would have jumped at the chance to take T if we had enabled it. https://t.co/WDYuQZ3tzV

“I went to the detransition network launch in Manchester and it had a big impact on me… and I had a voice echoing through my head for weeks afterwards saying ‘They’re sterilising gay kids, they’re sterilising gay kids, they’re sterilising gay kids…’ “

The Descent of the Human Rights Campaign
Brad Polumbo writes that the Human Rights Campaign, the nation’s largest LGBT lobby, once “worked with Republicans initially to advance the Employment Non-Discrimination Act, an early piece of legislation that would have added sexual orientation as a protected class under federal anti-discrimination employment laws.”
More recently, however, “the group put out a statement blasting as ‘deeply dangerous’ Republican congressman Chris Stewart, who introduced a gay and transgender rights bill [the Fairness for All Act], because it disagreed with some of the exceptions his bill contained.”
