I mean maybe there is a weird stretch where you get it to mean that, but generally: 

Amendment I

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.

“So if little girls experience their menstrual cycle in fifth grade or fourth grade, will that prohibit conversations from them since they are in the grade lower than sixth grade?” Gantt asked.

McClain responded, “It would.”

Florida just criminalized 4th-grade girls from discussing menstruation amongst themselves. That you "doubt" that they're naturally interested in the subject is not germane or even credible. You may "wish" it, but that don't make it so.

There is no provision in the bill to prevent the children from discussing the subject among themselves, but somehow I doubt at that age they are all naturally interested in the subject. Oh, and if the teachers don't like it they are free to choose another profession, unlike the students whose primary education  is mandated, by force.

This is being done because of what some parents want; not the majority. And the Right Wing is ready to give it to them, all under the 'moral' cloak of a twisted 'Convenient Store' Christianity.

Gimme a break SD, this right wing censorship of teachers, books and now little girls' speech is getting downright 1692. It has no place in governing. If parents don't like it, they can pay to send their delicate loin fruit to a Private school. Selective morality is what these monsters are pushing.

Good. As Willard said to Ben's rat buddies: "Tear him apart!"

'Bulls—-': GOP senators rebuke Tucker Carlson for downplaying Jan. 6 as 'mostly peaceful'

“I think it’s bullshit,” Sen. Thom Tillis of North Carolina told reporters in the Capitol.

“I was here. I was down there, and I saw maybe a few tourists, a few people who got caught up in things,” he added. “But when you see police barricades breached, when you see police officers assaulted, all of that ... if you were just a tourist you should’ve probably lined up at the visitors’ center and came in on an orderly basis.”

An Underwhelming First Day at CPAC
Thursday saw no side panels, or activism boot camps. Likely GOP presidential candidates like Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and former Vice President Mike Pence are skipping the event. Senate and House GOP leadership are noticeably absent, save Rep. Elise Stefanik.

Of course, CPAC still has a few big names in GOP politics who, in taking the stage Thursday, showed just how far to the right the party has gone. The day started with Rep. Jim Jordan, chairman of the House Judiciary committee, discussing how he’s going to use the power of the committee to possibly impeach Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas. Freedom Caucus Reps. Scott Perry and Ralph Norman bragged about their caucus’ ability to wreak havoc on Kevin McCarthy’s ascension to the speakership. Sens. Ted Cruz and J.D. Vance trashed Merrick Garland as the most “partisan” and “politicized” attorney general in United States history—a laughable claim that is par for the course here, along with the trans-bashing and Fauci booing. But what is most noticeable is what is missing.

Even with various prominent Republican politicians in attendance, the back half of the main ballroom is empty, and the front’s enthusiasm is muted. Gone are the hundreds of libertarian-inclined college students traditionally known for filling CPAC’s hallways. Ticket sales have lagged and premium package holders from past years remain unregistered, according to The Washington Post.

Daily Wire Host Says He Wasn’t Calling for ‘Genocide’ of Trans People – Claims They’re Not ‘Real’
Embattled far-right wing Daily Wire host Michael Knowles insists when he called for a complete ban on America’s 1.6 million transgender people he was not calling for genocide – and says it would be impossible to do so because transgender people aren’t “real.” (...)

“It has to be the whole thing because if men have the right to behave as women and identify as women for the purposes of public life, then women can’t have their own spaces and we as a society cannot have our own standards and norms and we’re not allowed to live according to reality,” he claimed, falsely suggesting that transgender people don’t exist in reality. Later in the segment he calls being transgender “fraud.”

“We have to live according to the delusions of these troubled people. And I think we, the people, have a right to reality. And I think women have a right to their own spaces. And so, that means you’ve got to ban the thing entirely.”

After inaccurately claiming that “genocide refers to genes, it refers to genetics, it refers to biology,” Knowles said, “transgender people is not a real ontological category. It’s not a legitimate category of being. There are people who think that they’re the wrong sex, but they’re mistaken. They’re laboring under a delusion. And so we need to correct that delusion.”
They never seem to talk about transgender men.
