What America Can Learn From UK Court Ruling on Transgender Case

Subscribe to Daily SignalSubscribe
The United Kingdom has long been on the progressive end of the transgender issue, so when they pump the brakes, America should pay attention, says Nicole Russell, a contributor to The Daily Signal. A high court in the United Kingdom recently ruled that children 16 years old and younger cannot be treated with puberty blocking hormone drugs, unless a court specifically rules otherwise. Russell reports extensively on the transgender issue and joins the show to discuss her recent piece breaking down the U.K. court decision. She also explains the media's response to actor Ellen Page, who now wishes to be called Elliot, coming out as transgender, and how the internet plays a big role in encouraging young people to transition. We also cover these stories:
  • President Trump speaks out in support of Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton and the motion he filed with the Supreme Court against Pennsylvania, Georgia, Michigan and Wisconsin.
  • Just one fourth of all Republicans are accepting of the November 3rd election results.
  • YouTube announces they will remove videos that claim there was widespread voter fraud in the 2020 election.
