The law, which was passed in Minnesota last year, includes language requiring menstrual products to be available in bathrooms of all schools for grades 4 to 12 as a way to accommodate transgender students.
As part of their effort to portray Tim Walz, the new Democratic vice-presidential candidate, as a far-left liberal, the Trump campaign attacked the Minnesota governor on Tuesday for signing a bill last year that provides access to menstrual products for transgender students.
At issue is broadly inclusive language in the law, which states that products like pads, tampons and other products used for menstruation “must be available to all menstruating students in restrooms regularly used by students in grades 4 to 12.” Republican state lawmakers in Minnesota had tried — and failed — to amend that bill so that it would apply only to “female restrooms,” though some Republicans went on to vote for the final version of bill.
Booooom! Trump campaign SLAMS Walz for . . .checks notes . . Ah! “basic humanity”!!!
Ha haaaa! Take that, liebruls!!
Oh shit they slammed him? That means it’s serious
What a monster, treating women like humans.
As a kid, I had frequent nosebleeds. Both from natural causes and homophobic bullies. Tampons in the boys bathroom would have been great for me, and I’m not even trans.
Just like curb cuts, making an amenity available for everyone helps * checks notes * everyone
For anyone who might need to hear this, plugging a nose bleed might be one of the worst ways to stop it. You have a high chance of ripping it back open when you remove the plug.
Pinch right under where the cartilage meets the bone for a full 60 seconds. Rinse and repeat until it stops.
Don’t tilt your head back either, as this causes the blood to pour into your stomach which can cause nausea and potentially vomiting (which can restart the bleed).
Source: used to get daily nosebleeds every winter for like 20 years.
Don’t you fool liberals know you’re just encouraging young girls to be sluts!

If people are dumb enough to criticize Walz over this kind of thing I really need to use /s.
Shit like this is why they’re getting called out as weird.
Believe it or not the Conservative rank and file love this kind of attack. My sister, who lives in the states but can’t vote there (and flew back to Canada to have her kids, who needed medical care they could never afford stateside) , Is all on the Trump train and was just last night going on and on about how “there ain’t no boys on my daughters gymnastics team in south Carolina” and “the other side wants tampons in boys washrooms”. They’re so obsessed with it, it’s fucking bizzare.
But honestly I should have known she was getting this from somewhere, the girl has never had an original thought in her life, a personality sponge if I ever saw one, always has been.
The republicans are weird.
I’m just a little confused, is this for assigned sex women who are male gendered so they still have their “lady bits” but feel more comfortable using male restrooms to match their gender? I guess it’s obvious, assigned sex males can’t have this issue regardless of surgery right?
I’m not 100% on the correct language so sorry if I wrote anything offensive.
I believe you’re correct. You could just say it’s for trans boys, because that implies both that they were assigned female and that they identify as male.
As for terminology, it’s typical to refer to the gender which with someone identifies as simply their gender, and their originally presumed gender as their assigned gender. The terms AMAB and AFAB (for “assigned male/female at birth”) are common, too.
One subtlety that’s almost always overlooked is that assigned gender at birth can involve surgery, too, because it’s unfortunately common for intersex people to be assigned female and have their genitals “fixed” to look female, leading to problems later in life. That’s not relevant to the topic at hand but I wanted to mention it for the sake of completeness.
Thanks for the info! :)
Walz doesn’t even have to campaign. All the Republican “attacks” make him sound great!
Diapers for Adderall-addicted smelly criminals though - that’d be fine with Old Diaper Donald
Bob Dole spent his last years shilling for viagra, and that’s considered normal and cool. Gingrich is on his third wife after cheating his way through the Clinton blowjob impeachment. Donald Trump is out there shedding donor cash to hush up the porn star he took to pound town on the campaign trail.
But god fucking forbid a teenager girl have access to a sanitary napkin in a public setting.
What do you think is at the bottom of these weirdo’s barrel? Do they just try to claim that Harris and Walz are both secretly gay? Or trans? Or both?
Gay, trans, commie, fascist, marxist, pedos, mean, dumb, elite, weak, powerful…
Take your pick, I guarantee every ‘slander’ you can imagine is on its way or already being used.
I wonder if he even still wants to win. Maybe he’s smart enough to realize just how dangerous his plans are to him personally. Like the biggest outcry regarding the assassination attempt was that the shot missed, and project 2025 isn’t even in full swing yet.
What do you think is at the bottom of these weirdo’s barrel?
NAMBLA
No no no this is “these weirdo’s barrels at the (little boys) bottoms”. So… Typical GOP closet stuff.
Let’s be clear, I hope we’re talking about the North American Man/Boy Love Association and not the North American Marlon Brando Look-Alikes.
North American Marlon Brando Look-Alikes
Are we talking young Brando or old Brando?
Let’s go with old Brando. It might be hard to get young Brando look-alikes.
I feel bad for people who have to become culture was targets just so the republicans can have a platform because god knows conservatives don’t have any real standards, morals, values or ethics. Or if they do, I’d like to see that in their behavior
They have standards for others but not for themselves. Rules for thee, etc.
I’ve listened to Trump speak, and it’s clear he doesn’t know what to do with a period, so this doesn’t surprise me.
Could they get out of kids pants and get to fixing the country?
“Think of the children, all ways.”
– #maga
“Fuck dem kids”
-Republicans
“Ok yeah sure”
-Matt Gaetz
“We’re pro life until the child is born, then fuck them.”
At this point, it seems pretty clear that they don’t even care about the fetus. Republicans just want to to control women.
I was calling them pedophiles
That also works. I was taking more a long the lines of George Carlin’s quote:
Boy, these conservatives are really something, aren’t they? They’re all in favor of the unborn. They will do anything for the unborn. But once you’re born, you’re on your own. Pro-life conservatives are obsessed with the fetus from conception to nine months. After that, they don’t want to know about you. They don’t want to hear from you. No nothing. No neonatal care, no day care, no head start, no school lunch, no food stamps, no welfare, no nothing. If you’re preborn, you’re fine; if you’re preschool, you’re fucked.
Its the wrong kind of thinking about them though
It always is.
All the problems going on in this nation and this planet yet their minds are hyper-fixated on the inside of children’s pants…that’s creepy as shit.
Pretty sure, we have a word for people who are fixated on children’s genitals.
Republican?
I was going to say child molester, however Republican works just as well (page 50 out of 50).
That’s out of 53 now actually.
Sadly, that’s not shocking at all.
Bunch of fucking weirdos. Constantly whining about government overreach yet they are all up in everyone’s private parts, sexual orientation, and dictating how schools/parents/doctors should treat trans/intersex children as if these bunch of ignorant Trump cultists have any clue about the medical/mental needs of these children.
