Honestly with Bari Weiss
26 Executive Orders, TikTok's Future, and Elon’s Arm

What we are pushing is not sellable to the American people and we need to change course. It's so frustrating to me that everyone I know is just quadrupling down on the old messages that aren't working. So... I don't know where we go from here. It feels like we're in a deadlock. Something's got to change. I see it. A lot of normal trans women and men I know see it.

They're begging for some new leadership. I don't know how we got there.

But I want to challenge you on that because there are parts of this that really go very far about you. And, you know, on election night, you told me that if Trump came for me and my rights, like you would stand with people like me. And I don't think like I don't want to get into the weeds on passport policy, but used to be in the Bush administration.

I applied for a passport and I wanted to get F on it. And they denied that because I had not had vaginoplasty. Right. So, they changed that. Well, I got that. Then they changed it. Hillary Clinton actually changed that so you could go apply for a passport and just say whatever you wanted on there. That's also not the right policy, right?

I think we agree that there should be, at the very least, you should be on a medical pathway before getting F on your legal identification there.

The problem is if you do not give some trans women a path to just normalcy where we can go about our day, we can get a job without, you know, making being trans the focus and we can just disappear, deal with the mental health issue and go forward with our lives. I think you don't understand just how much it traps you.

Because you only get defined as this one thing by so many people, and they will never let you be anything else, which is why so many trans women just don't talk about this stuff. And it's the entire reason the nut jobs have taken over because the trans women that are capable of having normal lives, they don't go into leadership.
