Gruenhagen: Former Democrat operative: “The jig is up” on gender identity

Friends and neighbors, 

Let me start by saying I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. 

I wanted to draw your attention to an important interview Liz Collin conducted with a now ex-Democrat operative about how the cult politics of gender identity pushed him out of the party. 

Matt Osborne, a former Democrat Party member and editor of The Distance Mag, spoke to Collin about how he left the party after witnessing harmful, and frankly frightening, gender ideology practices.  

For example, Osborne shared that in 2018, he attended a liberal activist conference called Netroots Nation. At one session about reproductive rights, he described an agenda focused on giving children puberty blockers and hormones – sometimes without their parents knowing. Osborne noted these plans included charging insurance and Medicaid for treatments without full transparency. 

After that experience, Osborne began speaking out against what he calls “gender madness.” He believes that these extreme gender identity policies hurt children and take away parents’ rights to know what’s happening with their kids.

Osborne’s interview is precisely why I – and so many others – speak out. Even Democrats are beginning to open their eyes. The more people learn about the extreme gender ideology agenda (like allowing males to compete in women’s sports or surgeries and other interventions for children), the more they oppose it.  

We may finally be at a turning point for these issues. Common sense is prevailing, but we cannot let up. We must continue to inform people about just how out-of-the-mainstream the gender identity agenda is. Remember, Governor Walz, all DFL Senators, and the house DFL, passed legislation in last biennium to legalize puberty blockers, crosssex hormones, and mutilating surgery on minors without parental permission. This is un-American, criminal, and child abuse. 

If you have any questions, please let me know. 

God Bless,  

Glenn
