Marco Rubio has hit the ground running as the new Secretary of State. Not only has he made a policy that the only flag that flies at our Embassies and other State Department buildings around the globe is the US flag, he’s no longer continuing the Biden/Blinken allowance of people putting an X on their passports in lieu of biological sex or to change their biological sex on their documents to that of their ‘preferred gender’.
Although both are great, the second one is going to have the most impact. Our data stream has been corrupted by allowing people to either change their biological sex on passports and other government documents or use the X marker.
This has allowed people to use federal documents to circumvent state law, like in Florida. There was one case that went viral because the dumbass put his law-breaking on TikTok. Updated birth certificates were being used by at least one person in Texas to get boys into girls’ sports.
From an article in the Hill from 2022, there are states that allow an ‘X’ on drivers licenses or allow changes to birth certificates to ‘X’ as well. But I think there’s starting to be pushback and changes to those policies as well.
Just the cost of changing systems to allow for those changes for a handful of people is astronomical and from an economic standpoint, is prohibitive. From a medical safety point of view, allowing those changes can threaten the individual’s life or the life of a baby.
We’ll see what happens on the state level now.
At least the only flag above our Embassies is now Old Glory, which is awesome.
