This kid is 15, and so has a moral clarity and uprightness that no adult elected official would or could ever have. There aren't really and never have been two sides of this issue, but if it has to be argued as a binary thing I don't see how anything less than this could seem like the side to be on.
this is a letter to the editor from a high school track runner who came in second to a trans girl in a race. her state house rep in maine started talking about it. so she wrote this: www.pressherald.com/2025/05/14/r...

This is so disturbing. I don’t even have the words.
This was not the Mother’s or family’s wishes. This is because the state considers it an abortion if they let the Mother die.
Can thing get anymore dystopian?

Why would a leader tank his own country's economy?
It's a key part of the aspiring autocrat's playbook.
Tariffs & chaos mean more power & control for Trump.
But America has no king. The Republican-led Congress can stop this at any time.

Shameful
Right now, in America, 22 million workers make less than $15/hr. 40 million make less than $17/hr.
Shamefully, the federal minimum wage hasn't been raised since 2009 and remains at $7.25/hr.
I asked Trump's nominee for Treasury if we should raise it.
His response?
"No sir."
