It's today explained from Vox in the second Trump administration,
transgender Americans have been subjected to a lot of scrutiny and some new laws and restrictions that President Trump made clear were coming on his first day in office.
It will henceforth be the official policy of the United States government that there are only two genders,
male and female.
On today's show,
we're going to look at how life has changed for trans people
since Trump was elected and how they're trying to understand the people who've aligned against them.
It is me, but to his base, that's what they want to see.
They want to see a fighter.
They want to see a hero.
They want to see the quote unquote Christian warrior.
And me, a black trans woman, I am an enemy.
I am that monster that you see in those commercials.
