I wish Nancy Mace a long vacation from politics. Her defeat is not a loss for the transgender community — it is proof that fearmongering and attacks on vulnerable people do not build a winning future.

But this fight is not over.

The two Republicans heading into the runoff may sound more polished, but they are no better on the issues that matter. They have simply stepped back from making transgender people their headline target because they know the politics are toxic. We should not confuse quieter rhetoric with real moderation.

Voters should remember what this campaign has revealed: too many politicians are willing to use transgender Americans as political props instead of focusing on jobs, healthcare, education, and the cost of living.

Now the goal is clear: defeat the Republican nominee in November. Democrats, Independents, and principled Republicans should turn out and vote for leaders who defend equality, personal freedom, and basic human dignity — not politicians who divide communities for political gain.

Brava, Congresswoman McBride!!

She took every punch they could throw and turned it into a standing ovation!! Happy Pride. 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈

We ought to cease referring to Congresswoman McBride as “Trans Congresswoman McBride.” It’s a habit that contributes to identifying her under a label that trans-enemies wish to persist as denigrating. We’re just “people”… with professions. “Trans” isn’t a profession.

Mace is finding out that the hatred highway runs both ways. Nice to see McBride hasn’t lost her sense of humor!

I hope this speaks well for the possibility of a Democratic becoming governor in S.C.

I feel that after the years of vitriol Nancy has leveled at us over the last few years, Sarah and every other trans person absolutely deserve a healthy dose of sassy gloating at this turn of events!
