Are transvestites the same thing as transgender? AI Overview No, transvestites and transgender people are not the same thing. While both terms involve gender expression, they differ in their core meaning. Transvestite, often used interchangeably with cross-dresser, refers to someone who enjoys wearing clothing associated with the opposite gender, but it doesn't necessarily imply a different gender identity. Transgender, on the other hand, encompasses a broader range of identities where a person's gender identity differs from the sex they were assigned at birth.

I am sticking to the topic which (per the title) is talking about transvestites not transgenders Transvestites are not the same thing as transgenders. OP can say they are one in the same but that doesn't make it so. I have never seen a guy in full Drag competing in a women's track event, so the party can't be over for them as it never began.

Transvestites in sports-the party is over OP doesn't know the difference between transvestite and transgender. Must be confusing sporting events with Drag Queen Story Hour at the library.

This should not surprise anyone. https://x.com/atrupar/status/1911813948912918658 (video clip at link) Trump says he'd like to deport American citizens to a gulag in El Salvador: "I'd like to go a step further. I said to Pam, I don't know what the laws are, we always have to obey the laws, but we also have homegrown criminals that push people into subways ... I'd like to include them in the group of people to get them out of the country."

False. We care about anyone denied Due Process under the Constitution, it doesn't matter if that person is a living saint or a serial killer (everyone is entitled to due process, citizen or non-citizen). And if Democrats cared only about power they certainly wouldn't be backing Garcia here - even though it is the right thing to do, it probably won't be a winning campaign issue if the lies and smear campaign against him are successful.

Who knew he was so pedantic about semantics?

Good news and bad news: The good news is that, yes, he responded several times. The bad news is that he never answered the question in any of his reponses.

So you repeat the stories about him abusing his wife, being a gang member and human smuggling like a parrot but all of that is irrevant to you because you think he should be deported just for the above US Code violation. So, his character good or bad means absolutely nothing to you.

And they weren't even real margaritas but were made to look that way by the wait staff. Marco Rubio repeated the "sipping margaritas" lie the other day and he obviously knows it's not the truth.

Neither do I and it is irrelevant. What we have said since the start of this thread is that IT IS NOT ABOUT GARCIA THE PERSON it about is the larger constitutional issues involved in this case that could potentially impact everyone (look at the big picture, people).

I don't think he is an idiot and he knows how to read, but he is being intentionally obtuse.

A criminal whose only crime which is undisputed is his being undocumented.

First Kavanaugh, now they are bringing OJ into this. Anything to deflect from discussing the issues with Garcia.

Yet their default position always seems to be "He beat his wife!" (it's like that is the only string on their guitar).

:crickets:

It doesn't even rise to that (so to speak).

Who would have to leave El Salvador to avoid being imprisoned and tortured himself if he dared to testify (which probably wouldn't even be allowed).

Realistically, how would he prove it?

He and a few others do that all the time, try to deflect from the news that is reported by focusing on who reported it (which doesn't change the actual news). Krassenstein is just the messenger here relating what Garcia said in the amended lawsuit. He didn't change or add anything and his only commentary being "There may be more" I could have found another dozen tweets reporting this and they all would have said the same thing, but somehow it is not credible only because of the source.

https://x.com/krassenstein/status/1940555021847851159 BREAKING: In an amended lawsuit, Kilmar Abrego Garcia alleges that he was tortured inside the El Salvador prison where Trump sent him to. According to the filing, Abrego Garcia endured: - Brutal beatings - Extreme sleep deprivation - Forced kneeling from 9 PM to 6 AM — where guards beat detainees who collapsed from exhaustion. He was denied bathroom access and defecated on himself. - Starvation-level nutrition - Psychological torture, including threats of gang violence - Told he would be torn apart by gang members This is just one account. There may be more.

This would never happen in L.A. - all the landscapers/gardeners I see (who are Latino) use a leaf blower.

None. It is privately held by Elon Musk. He bought out all the shareholders a few years back at $52 a share.
