Stunning. The Biden Administration just gutted Title IX, a 50-year protection for girls in America’s educational system, assuring biological females – the only meaning intended – must receive equal treatment, protections, and resources, commensurate with biological boys. That guarantee is gone.
In the most radical, constitutionally and morally bereft act of this entire morally debased Administration, the Biden Department of Education – ignoring the sentiment of 100 percent of the nation – has just unilaterally redefined a girl as non-biological, stripping girls of rights to privacy, safety, dignity, and sovereignty over their body in schools, under threat of loss of federal funding.
Before you suggest this is an overstatement, follow the facts. A 2022 Pew poll recorded that 63 percent of Americans viewed Title IX’s protection of biological girls “positively,” while 37 percent believed the Title could do MORE for biological girls, needed to do more for them, in totaling 100 percent.
Not one American, except the anti-DNA, anti-girl lobby – which promotes transgenderism as a cause, use of hormones, and radical surgery to address a mental health condition called “gender dysphoria” – has suggested LESS protection for girls’ privacy, safety, dignity, and sovereignty.
The whole idea, while appropriately addressed by making available more mental health resources, does not historically, legally, morally, or medically belong in politics; to reduce the fundamental and statutorily prescribed rights of biological girls – on behalf of .05 percent of the population – is absurd.
Yet, this is what the Biden Administration has just done – by high-handedly changing federal regulations that affect all educational institutions in the country, no federal legislation, no compliance with past Supreme Court cases, no reference to the legislative history, nothing.
Moreover, the silence from all state and federal Democrats – members of the US Senate and House, Democrat governors, and Democrat state-level legislators from Maine to California – is deafening. Proponents of Title IX, who were initially more Democrat, are now hostile to biological girls.
Within Republican-led states, governors, legislators and attorneys general are swiftly stepping up to law file suits, arguing this upends public and private education, biology, constitutional and statutory caselaw as we know it, these suits – Arkansas to Kentucky – will take time.
The incredible part of this is the audacity of one-party rule, the willingness of the White House and Federal Department of Education to simply crush the popular will, not of a few but of what amounts to virtually the entire country. And if they can do it on this issue, what issue will they not do it on?
Once again some basic truths emerge.
First, power corrupts – and one-party power, held by a party that wants more government not less, at the federal or state level, is as corrosive a force as exists. Wherever pro-government parties push their agenda with one party in control, freedom dies.
Second, the level of fear in this country – from school boards and legislatures to Congress and average people in conversation with neighbors – is frighteningly high, or this kind of absurd federal policy-pushing, ramming untruth and leftist mandates down our throats would not be attempted.
The Biden government – like state-level one-party governments – thinks it can crush opposition by fiat, and end moral, legal, ethical, parental, medical, and civil objection – with fear, and forced conformity.
Third, the Biden team has zero respect for constitutional law, except when it serves their crass political purposes, not for traditional “separation of powers” and “co-equal branches” not for longstanding case law, not for Supreme Couret decisions from the illegality of mass executive loan forgiveness to returning abortion to state-level determination. They promote lawlessness.
Fourth, Democrat leaders – top to bottom, federal to state – do not respect The People, the source of their authority. They do not respect the country’s origins, the role of constitutional and statutory provisions in keeping order, respect, and adherence to basic human rights, including a girl’s rights.
Fifth, Democrats have had an epiphany, and are reversing direction in a herd-like fashion after fawning over Mr. Fauci, who declared himself “science” and pushed mandates and restriction of rights. Now Democrats in leadership openly disavow science, DNA structure, the double helix, chromosomes, and what makes a girl a girl. Any mention of God and God’s plan, of course, is DOA.
Which brings me to the sixth observation. When you think the world has gone wholly “off its nut,” finally sigh and say, “Okay, that’s it,” beware.
As Bertrand Rusell said, “folly is perennial,” and as Ralph Waldo Emerson noted, “A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds, adored by little statesmen, philosophers, and divines.” That “little minds” stuff … well, in some crowds, it seems to be catchy. Stunning

RBC,
Must be a slow news day to write about something that is already several weeks old. It was only a matter of time until Team Biden got around to trying to completely dissolve the real-world distinctions between a man and woman and offer up some typical cultural Marxist solution to further incite still more chaos and distractions in the public square. The Democrat Party is simply celebrating the fact that they have managed to cultivate two whole generations of unthinking, useful idiots that will rally and scream on queue in support of whatever inane ideas America’s socialist / Marxist Party chooses to put forth in the name of “protecting democracy”. All while starting to work on the third generation that will be even dumber and easily manipulated.
Don’t worry though RBC, Team Biden still has a whole six months left to come up with an even more absurd policy that will make this one look tame in comparison. Remember, the goal is a constant state of chaos to keep the public off balance as the real game changing policies are quietly enacted behind the scenes.
When two cultures, with completely diametrically opposite values exist in the same physical space, ultimately only one culture survives long-term. The Democrats are merely fighting to ensure they will be that surviving group. Our side either needs to start pushing back hard or face extinction in the not-too-distant future.
It’s time for all the sane adults to stand up and put and end to this
Trans BS. There are ONLY two sexes, male and female, and then
there are mentally ill folks who have delusions of gender, aka gender
confusion.
Excellent article. I would say that anyone who still advocates the democratic party and its ruler, is either 1, in total denial of evil, 2, totally stupid, or 3, totally sold out to the devil..
You’d think Biden and his Democrats would actually know “what a woman is”: it’s that thing that gets abortions. Obviously, they’re desperately clinging to the far left voting blocs trans idiocracy which includes their major dark money donors who are also funding tents, plywood, and gluten-free muffins for supporters of Hamas on all these campuses. (No surprise the DNCs media workhorse, CNN, will be airing a “special” about trans in women’s sports which, judging by the ad I saw, looked highly trans-sympathetic)
Of course, the only solution is to take education money out of the hands of the feds, where it never belonged anyway, and give it back to the states. Why aren’t the governors, never mind the senators and congressmen, making this happen? They’d best get off their lazy behinds because there is a reckoning coming and the people are being pushed too far. I don’t know of one dad who wouldn’t go to the moon and back for his little girl, or one mom who wouldn’t fight like a tiger to keep perverts away from her kids. Feds beware.
Hopefully the women and girls (and men with daughters and granddaughters) in this Country will appropriately and overwhelmingly respond to this outrage at the voting booth in November.One political party seems to believe that you will forgive them if they give preferential treatment to a small, but extremely vocal, special interest group within their party. Don’t let them distract you with meaningless spin about opposing candidates and what they may or may not do. The future of these young women is far to important!
How can one person change a law passed by congress? There used to be a separation of powers. Why do we fund congress if one oerson(Biden) can change or make laws on his own?
Joe and Democrats are trying to give illegals rights that belong to American citizens while they are taking rights away from women!! There is a simple solution to this transgender in women’s sports issue – create a league especially for transgenders so they can compete against each other and away from girl’s and women’s sports!!! Joe and Democrats, you KNOW this isn’t fair, what you want to do to girls and women in sports!! Shame on all of you!!
And the more liberal minded citizens among US want US to believe the Progressive controlled Democrat Party cares anything about women’s/girl’s rights. This is the worst they have done yet to take away the rights of females in the U.S. Progressive Democrats are an absolute enemy of female rights as well as rights for all American citizens.
Where are the feminists? Where are the “Gloria Allreds”? Where are the “Me. too” types? Because it’s Xao Bai-Din destroying girls and women (so he can do a little hair sniffing) it’s OK now? You liberals are liars and hypocrites!
What do you expect from a Pedophile who sniffs little girls hair and ask how old they are on camera?.
This man so needs to be fired this November, and put out to pasture.
LETS GO BRANDON
Enough of this B/S If you got a weenie then you are a man. Kyle L.
The author is spot on with his assessment. I hope the parents of girls on the left can see what leftist doctrine is doing to the rights of their daughters and that they will abandon the burning Democrat ship.
Joe didn’t think this one out. Now justice Ketanji will never be able to figure out what a woman is. Seriously dear readers. God save us!
Which is worst? Presidential adult dementia or adolescent collegiate insanity?
This is a disgrace The trans group need a league of their own!!
Teams with all real women that continue to compete against a “women’s” team with a biological male are part of the problem. If teams with all real women refused to compete against teams with a biological male it would stop. Men should compete with men, women with women and transgender with transgender.
Face it FJB believes women have one purpose here on Earth…
I hope every biological girl of voting age in the U.S. votes for someone other than a democrat who cares nothing for their rights as females.
I don’t believe Vegetable Joe has made one good decision in his 50 years in government. He is destroying women’s sports. I believe most States will sue the government over this issue. Girls cannot compete with men in sports — not a fair fight. Joe is useless.
Gotta secure that far-left trans vote don’t ya know?! Surprised he’s not trying to lower the age of consent to three years old to win the pedophile vote yet.
We already know Biden is a far left fool and is not playing with a full deck so this is nothing new from him
Every parent of school-aged girls (or younger) needs to really consider what just happened to their daughter’s future in schools, sports, and careers. Make your voice heard in November.
Government funding is the cudgel with which to beat and bribe organizations who are foolish enough to accept it. This administration deserves resistance, rebellion, and revolution.
This is confusing to me. Since the whole issue sounds grounded in a certain incoherence, maybe “President” Biden began to think HE was a girl… and excused himself for a powder…
Title 10. Sneak a peek. Kyle L.
The word transgender is to date unsupported by current science and constitutes misinformation. What is achieved is extreme cross dressing through transfiguration. Until the medical experimenters successfully implant serviceable testes, prostate, ovaries and uterus there is no transgender taking place.
Democrats are determined to destroy male and female genders.
biden is a complete insane person. The fact he is allowed this insane behavior is beyond me. I wish I was a lot younger! Time to rally the troops! Enough is enough! Time for all true biological females to step up and stop supporting this insanity.
The left is full of racist, misogynistic bigots and they don’t even know it. They project their own hate on to conservatives and Republicans. The old adage “when you point your finger at someone be aware that 3 of your fingers are pointing back at you” truly applies to the Left.
This mess is all going away soon, GOD IS TAKING THEM OUT! Resist and speak up against the enemy in government. Urge them to Repent NOW.
Biden and the socialist/communist democrats are just doing what communists do. Tearing down the moral fabric of a nation. Why should we expect any less of these treasonous, lying hate filled democrats? Is Biden protecting anyone (except left wing radicals) let alone fulfilling his oath of office? If you don’t see why he should not be reelected, it’s too late for you.
Biden has learned well from Lincoln.
Biden needs to be put in a one man canoe with a bag of peanut and a gallon of water let him paddle from the United States to china.
KKKJoe Biden had much of his humanity burned off long ago. Whatever is left will be burned off in his eternal damnation.
This is disgusting. I wonder if Biden thinks his father gave birth to him.
The Democrat Party has actually stepped lower than I thought they would. Don’t they realize that this will hurt Democrat women also? It is “regulation,” not law. If we can get President Trump back in office, he will reverse this.
Biden and the Democats are completely out of control. No regard for the Constitution or the law.
Absolutely Shameful, but it’s the kaos that the O’biden administration seeks
This is so wrong but no less than I expect of the Biden Administration!
This mentally ill person has the morals of Satan! Hope he enjoys his eternity with him.
This administration is right out of the playbook of Karl Marx. I never would have thought I’d live to see this day. SMH
And yet they will vote in droves for this anti-American. America deserves what it gets!
It’s pretty clear that Satan is running the show on earth now. The uniparty is his minions enmass and working towards his goal to remove America from the global scene. Just stating facts as posed in prophecy in the Bible.Logical minds can see this. Others not so much.
This lack of a man needs to be voted out and put into a nursing facility!
These people need to be removed forever from any political career.
Wonder if Biden has a clue of Israel war, Ukraine war & Southern border war. And changing the rules on girls is your top priority.
Quit taking away the rights that women have fought for the last 200-years. Biden, if you do not know the difference in men & women you need to retire. How many women voters do you think will support you ? and do you care.
