AOC mocked for hysterical speech defending trans athletes in women’s sport: ‘Trans girls are girls!’

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., was one more time the subject of a viral grilling campaign after a reckless rant in the House of Representatives on Tuesday.

Ocasio-Cortez spoke against The Protection of Women and girls in sport Act out a two-minute tirade that included both false and baseless claims. Her speech ended with the unexplained claim that “CEOs like this bill” as it relates to the ongoing wildfires in California.

The bill ultimately passed and will now go to the Senate after all 216 Republicans in the House of Representatives voted in favor, along with just two Democrats. Meanwhile, 206 Democrats, including Ocasio-Cortez, voted against the bill.

Ocasio-Cortez opened her argument by referencing Republicans’ history of voting against the “Violence Against Women Act” and a patently false claim about their position on abortion rights.

“Republicans who have consistently voted against violence against women act, who have stripped all women of their right to choose and control their own bodies, who, while women bleed in parking lots across the country, stand there, letting us die, now want to pretend today that they care about women!” Ocasio-Cortez said.

Abortion is currently protected by state law in 21 states and the District of Columbia, and President-elect Trump has repeatedly insisted that abortion rights will be left up to the states under his administration.

Ocasio-Cortez was also one of many Democrats who pushed baseless claims that the law would expose young girls to sexual predators.

“And why? To open the gender, and yes, genital examinations of little girls in this country, in the name of the so-called attack on trans girls!” Ocasio-Cortez continued.

Nowhere in the bill does it say that girls or women would be subjected to a genital examination in order to play sports. However, Ocasio-Cortez, along with House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries and other Democrats who oppose it, cited that possibility as their main argument in opposing the act.

“The majority now say that there is no place in this bill to open a genital examination. Well, there is no enforcement mechanism in this law. And when there is no enforcement mechanism, you open the door to any enforcement mechanism!” Ocasio-Cortez said.

HOW TRANSGENDERITY IN SPORTS MOVED THE 2024 ELECTIONS AND IGNITED A NATIONAL COUNTERCULTURE

The bill makes it a violation of Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 for federally funded educational programs or activities to conduct, sponsor, or facilitate athletic programs or activities that allow male individuals to participate in programs or activities that are intended for women or girls.

According to the account, gender is based on an individual’s reproductive biology and genetics at birth.

Ocasio-Cortez has been a consistent advocate for trans inclusion in women’s sports and has previously used the word “predatory” to describe those who oppose it. In November Ocasio-Cortez shared again a video of Green Party VP candidate Butch Ware speaking out against trans inclusion in women’s sport, with the caption reading: “This card is predatory and people deserve better.”

And now, despite many in her party and liberal media figures publicly disavowing support for trans inclusion, Ocasio-Cortez is unwavering in her stance on what it means to be a woman or a girl.

“Trans girls are girls!” Ocasio-Cortez said at Tuesday’s hearing.

Ocasio-Cortez then launched into a series of incoherent and unfinished sentences on the matter.

“And for all the people who are so concerned, thank you for taking care of women for the first time I’ve ever seen them. I don’t know about all of you. I don’t know who’s been in gym class lately, but girls, even if you just believe if there were only two sexes, I’ve been doing joint sports all along!” she said before moving on to another point.

Ocasio-Cortez’s next point was a warning that the bill could result in a deference to traditional femininity.

“This also opens the door for women to try to perform a very specific kind of femininity for the very kind of men who are making this law, and to open up the question of who a woman is because of how we look, how we present ourselves, and yes, what we choose to do with our bodies.” she said.

The bill does not address how biological females dress, present themselves, or any potential anatomical or bodily decisions.

Ocasio-Cortez concluded her speech by claiming the bill was “loved” by “puzzlers” and “attackers,” before making an inexplicable connection to CEOs and the California wildfires.

“The strikers love this bill. The strikers love this bill, but the CEOs love this bill, too. Because Los Angeles is burning right now, and this is the No. 1 priority this majority has,” she said before leaving the podium.

Ocasio-Cortez was the subject of sharp criticism on social media for her tirade later Tuesday.

Ocasio-Cortez previously co-sponsored the Equality Act, which was proposed in 2019 and had revisions that would “force public schools to allow biologically male athletes who identify as transgender on women’s sports teams.”

In March 2023, Democrats, including Ocasio-Cortez, advocated for a transgender bill of rights, proposing resolution “recognizing that it is the duty of the federal government to develop and implement a Transgender Bill of Rights.”

However, now the issue of preventing trans inclusion has become a bipartisan priority, with Republicans and Trump simply taking the lead.
