The San Diego suburb of Santee became the latest flashpoint in a nationwide debate over transgender rights, an issue that is now the central rallying cry for far-right extremists across the country. Meanwhile, the FBI warns white supremacists are increasingly targeting the nation's power grid, and an attorney for the Proud Boys says former President Donald Trump should be blamed for the January 6 insurrection.
Last week, a 17-year-old made a speech to the city council of the San Diego suburb of Santee, claiming she had seen a transgender woman in the locker room of the local YMCA and had hidden in a shower in fright. Footage of that speech soon went viral, far right-wing media coverage erupted, and Tucker Carlson weighed in. A resulting rally at the YMCA on Wednesday saw local politicians denouncing trans rights while local white supremacist thugs clashed with anti-fascists nearby.
The anti-trans movement has become the central focus of the extremist far-right over the last 12 months. All-ages drag shows in particular have been a magnet for anti-trans activism and far-right extremist activity, but controversies like the one in Santee have also attracted extremists.
Remember When The YMCA Hated The Village People Song About Gay Men Now Trans Is An Entire New Bat
