Netflix drama Orange is the New Black, used her recent appearance on The Daily Show to raise awareness of the disinformation surrounding anti-trans legislation and campaigning.During the appearance, Cox drew attention to the surge in anti-LGBTQIA+ legislation across the US, including the 25 stats that banned transgender under-18s from accessing gender-affirming care.“Thanks for making sure schools don’t teach about sexual orientation or gender identity, because pretending trans kids don’t exist means they disappear, just like pretending climate change doesn’t exist… it disappears too!,” she said, before jokingly adding, “So I guess we will never know why my tits are sweating in December.”Cox then highlighted that Donald Trump and the Republican part have spent $65 million (£49 million) on campaign ads pushing anti-trans rhetoric.Hitting back at the ads, Cox said: “Do you know how disappointing it is for someone to finally spend $65 million on me and it’s for this crap? I didn’t want hateful attack ads. I wanted a house in the Hills with six walk-in closets!”She continued: “This is straight out of the bigotry handbook, using dehumanising language on marginalised groups provides a permission structure to attack them, because, when people are rendered no longer human, you can take away their rights, [and] commit violence against them with impunity.”Cox went on to reference the ongoing legal dispute between North Carolina lieutenant governor Mark Robinson and CNN, which reported in September that the Republican left a series of disturbing comments on a pornography website before entering politics.

The New York Times.Meloni — a single mother who never married the father of her daughter — hypocritically has campaigned on the importance of promoting “traditional family values.”She and her fellow conservatives have railed against “gender ideology” and the “LGBT lobby” at political events, stating that children should only be raised in two-parent, heterosexual households. Last year, Meloni’s interior minister ordered local governments to stop transcribing certificates of children born abroad through surrogacy, citing a court ruling — which is currently being challenged.As a result, some children with same-sex parents have been denied access to citizenship, public schools, health care, and other benefits and services.Following the interior minister’s decree, prosecutors across Italy began contesting the birth certificates of all children born to same-sex parents — regardless of whether they were conceived through surrogacy or not — with the aim of erasing the names of non-biological parents from those birth certificates.

gender-affirming care for incarcerated individuals, a stance she adopted in 2019 when she was running for the Democratic nomination for president.“Kamala’s for they/them,” a narrator says in one of the ads. “President Trump is for you.”In a newer ad, the Trump campaign zeroes in on one transgender prisoner in custody in California, Shiloh Heavenly Quine, the first inmate in the United States to receive state-financed gender-affirming surgery.The ad, which misgenders Quine as a man, implies she received the surgery as a reward after having “murdered a father of three.”As Harris has previously noted, in a televised interview during which she was attacked by Fox mouthpiece Brett Baier, the Trump administration itself had adopted a similar policy of allowing transgender inmates to access gender-affirming care when such care was deemed “medically necessary.”Harris added that, as president, she would “follow the law” and allow such a policy to continue.The Lincoln Project has now come to Harris’s defense, cutting a new ad that lambastes Trump for his hypocrisy.“Have you seen this ad?” a narrator intones as a brief snapshot of Trump’s attack against Harris is shown.
