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.

Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves.
