Today on the Matt Walsh Show, as red states move to ban the procedures, states like Minnesota are passing legislating to declare themselves “sanctuaries” for child mutilation. One father of a “trans” six year old testified in favor of the bill. His testimony is being hailed as “heroic” and “beautiful” by the Left, but I have a different take. Also, the College Board makes changes to its AP African American studies course after pushback from conservatives. A BBC correspondent celebrates the “beautiful piece of hand luggage” (i.e. a baby) that he had via the womb he rented. Vegan activists hatch a disastrous plan to shut down a slaughterhouse. In our Daily Cancellation, we explore the depressing world of “divorce coaches.”

In Texas, a heated political battle is taking place over care provided to young transgender people, with Gov. Greg Abbott taking a leading role.

The story of this confrontation began, improbably, with the contentious divorce of a suburban couple from Dallas, and a nasty custody battle over their daughter.

We look at how a domestic dispute precipitated one of the fiercest political clashes in the country, and return to yesterday’s story about a trans teenager, Grayson, and his mother to explore the impact of this clash.

Guests: J. David Goodman, The New York Times’s Houston bureau chief, covering Texas; and Azeen Ghorayshi, a reporter covering the intersection between sex, gender and science for The Times.

In an act of brazen political insanity, Democrats decide to make transgender indoctrination of children their top 2022 issue; the Biden administration taps the Strategic Oil Reserve to lower gas prices but will not increase drilling; and new inflation indicators are hideous.
