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.
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.
This is what those idiots got to say?
Look at this guy actually helping people, lol!
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
Shit like this is why they’re getting called out as weird.
Shame on you for checks notes caring about youth for being hygenic and safe in a socially stressful environment.
Yeah. The next thing you know they’ll want SOAP in the bathroom! Ugh!
The republicans are weird.
Republicans: “We should be very concerned about childrens’ genitals!”
Tim Walz: Provides sanitary products to children in school
Republicans: “Not like that!”
Don’t you fool liberals know you’re just encouraging young girls to be sluts!
/s
If people are dumb enough to criticize Walz over this kind of thing I really need to use /s.
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.

You know, maybe I’m getting old but I remember a time when the Republican Party wasn’t running on a platform that consists of nothing but batshit crazy. I’ve never been a Republican but there was some semblance of sanity there and not this soup sandwich of bathrooms and genitals. Jfc.
☝️This guy likes Ike.
I legit think Sarah Palin was when the GOP jumped the shark.
W was at least on the ramp approaching the shark in that case
GOP: A party for the under represented morally corrupt and mentally deranged.
Bruh, my political memory goes back to Iran Contra. They were always fucking insane, it’s just that they used to apply the thinnest veneer of normalcy. Newt Gingrich accelerated their unmasking.
Nixon was where it got wild. But yeah there was until the tea party and Trump a thin mask of civility.
Newt was most definitely an OG hypocrite, but hindsight makes everything even more clear: Nixon, Goldwater, McCarthy, Strom Thurmond, the list goes on.
Roger Alies and Roger Stone were on the Nixon staff. Helll, even Eisenhower is mostly responsible for the GOP co-opting Christianity. Before that they leaned left cus of the charity and and helping the needy.
Eisenhower was the last good Republican.
I have posted this very same comment from time to time. Substituting “decent” where you use “good”.
Only a male idiot would come up with something like that. There’s no short supply in the Republican party.
ending period poverty is bad according to republicans
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.
