On Wednesday, February 24, Democratic Congresswoman Marie Newman of Illinois, erected a transgender flag outside her office both to show support for the community and send a message to her neighbor, conspiracy-theory believing Republican Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia.

Greene, never one to shy away from the opportunity to remind America of her bigoted ideas, imitated Newman's video with one of her own.


Outside her office, Greene hung up a poster with a transphobic message:

"There are TWO genders: Male & Female"

Newman responded in kind, calling out Greene's hate speech while also wondering why it wasn't being flagged by social media outlets like Facebook.

Issues of LGBTQ+ equality are especially important to Newman, whose daughter is transgender.

On Twitter, Greene was harshly criticized by colleagues and pundits.



Many Americans online were ashamed that they were being represented in Congress by someone like Marjorie Taylor Greene.



Many Republicans in Congress have continued to offer Greene her support despite her countless controversies.



Some media outlets also gained some negative attention for posing the conflict between the two Congresswomen as a "feud."


Marjorie Taylor Greene continues to make national headlines with her shocking displays of transphobia.

Mom And Stepdad Go Viral After Forcing Adult Daughter To Sign Contract To Live At Home—And People Are Divided

In today's economy, it's becoming more common than ever before for adult children to continue to live with their parents after they graduate from high school, while they work their first job, or even while they go to college. Others, just as commonly, will return to their parents' home after going away for college or an internship.

Understanding the financial benefits, and sometimes necessity, of this, some parents use this arrangement to support their children while still trying to teach them something about life, like asking them to pay a little bit of rent, to cover a bill, or to help with groceries, and typically take on a few more responsibilities around the house.

The sun produces heat and light through solar, or electromagnetic, radiation. Solar energy technologies capture that radiation and convert it into usable power. The two primary forms of solar technology are photovoltaics (PV) and concentrating solar-thermal power (CSP).
