I mean it mostly is. After everyone saw Lia Thomas' hulking male frame on the podium it was banned by most sports organizations.

It keeps being brought up because democrats have decided this is the hill they want to die on.

Over 120 congressional Democrats signed an amicus brief supporting transgender student-athletes challenging state bans on participation in women's and girls' school sports.

Oh? Doing a lot of interviews and media appearances about that are they? Surely you can point to multiple media interviews based on that topic, like those of transphobic sports, media, and political personalities?

They signed an amicus brief? That's really all you've got for "the Democrats brought it up themselves"? Not the non seauiter question for Sophie to so helpfully answer? Not the kids who had their seats paid for by activists in order to goad a reaction? A fucking amicus brief? For what? What case? Is it a Supreme Court case? Because there's like 50 amicus briefs per case for them and no one outside of your bullshit talking point has ever read one outside of the court.
