Wednesday afternoon’s edition of CNN News Central took a trip to Crazy Town when actor and transgender activist Laverne Cox joined the program to react to Speaker Mike Johnson’s announcement that single-sex Capitol Hill restrooms are just that: single-sex restrooms. Cox, however, insisted this was some sort of Nazi-like attempt to create a “untermenschen” or “subhuman” class of people.
Cox declared, “Donald Trump himself said that he wants to make biological sex the law of the land, and that is assigned at birth, and that is binary. This is what Mike Johnson, the Speaker of the House, has basically also asserted.”
It’s also the law of nature, or science, but Cox continued by going after The Daily Wire’s Michael Knowles, “This has never been about the children, it's been about scapegoating trans people, eradicating us from public life as Matt Knowles will say and what—Michael Knowles, yeah, that's his name, Michael Knowles, and I think the most important thing for us to remember as trans people and then as people in general is that when we dehumanize people, we dehumanize ourselves.”
