As RedState previously reported, fireworks were on display last Tuesday during a House Subcommittee on Health Care and Financial Services hearing where the topic under discussion was "The Importance of Protecting Female Athletics and Title IX." Among the witnesses who testified was Save Women's Sports spokeswoman Riley Gaines, who is a prominent advocate for preserving women's sports exclusively for biological women and who has testified at numerous state-level hearings in addition to the times she's spoken before members of Congress.

To quickly recap, during her opening remarks, woke Squad member Summer Lee (D-Pa.), the vice-ranking member on the committee, declared that she was sure that a lot of "transphobia" would be on display from some of the speakers. This prompted Gaines to respond accordingly at the end of her own statement by telling Lee that if her remarks made her "transphobic," then Lee's opening monologue made her a "misogynist." What ensued was Lee, who is a member of the infamous House Hamas Caucus, expressing hurt feelings in trying to get Gaines' comments removed from the record, an incredible censorship attempt she backed down on moments later.

Understandably, the exchange has gotten a lot of attention in the aftermath, with Gaines appearing on Fox News to talk about what happened, and picking up right where she left off. And just days later, Gaines penned an op/ed for the Daily Mail in which she asked the question "When a sportswoman dies at the hands of a male-born trans athlete - will Congress STILL call me a 'transphobe'?" https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12845137/RILEY-GAINES-trans-athlete-Congress-transphobe-misogynist.html
