“Women deserve women’s only spaces,” Johnson said.
House Speaker Mike Johnson has issued a new edict saying that only women shall have permission to access women’s bathrooms on Capitol Hill. The move from Johnson comes after South Carolina Rep Nancy Mace proposed a new rule that would deliver the same result Johnson has provided.
“All single-sex facilities in the Capitol and House Office Buildings—such as restrooms, changing rooms, and locker rooms—are reserved for individuals of that biological sex,” Johnson wrote. “It is important to note that each Member office has its own private restroom, and unisex restrooms are available throughout the Capitol.”
“Women deserve women’s only spaces,” Johnson said.
The issue wouldn’t be an issue except that a trans representative from Delaware has been elected and Mace wanted to ensure that she would not be faced with a male in a women’s bathroom. She proposed a bill on Monday before saying that were it not taken up, she would move to have it included in the rules for the incoming 119th Congress. “Playing make believe dress up doesn’t mean you should be allowed in women’s private spaces,” Mace said.
Delaware’s Sarah McBride, who came out as trans in 2012 and has been presenting as a woman ever since, has said that the people of Delaware want their new rep to focus on those social programs that McBride ran on, such as child care and health care.
McBride said that Mace’s attempt to ban males from women’s rooms was “a blatant attempt from far right-wing extremists to distract from the fact that they have no real solutions to what Americans are facing.”
“I’m not a spokesperson for a movement,” McBride said. “I’m a voice for all Delawareans — and when we see the incoming administration talk negatively about any vulnerable community, I guarantee you it’s an attempt to distract from the fact that in that same moment, they are picking the pockets of American workers and fleecing seniors by trying to privatize critical programs like social security and medicare.”
After proposing the bill to ban men from women’s spaces on Capitol Hill, Mace was targeted by a trans activist who said “I hope that one day I do find you in that woman’s bathroom. And I grab your ratty-looking f*cking hair and drag your face down to the floor while I repeatedly bash it in until the blood’s everywhere and you’re dead.”
“I will never allow a man to bully me or any other woman or girl. I am here and I will fight like hell to stop the insanity,” Mace said.

Tren de Aragua has already set up shop in these 16 states, Homeland Security warns
The vicious Venezuelan prison gang Tren de Aragua has expanded its territory to at least 16 US states — an area that includes half of America’s population, The Post has learned.
Homeland Security officials last week were warned in an internal department intelligence memo about TdA’s growing presence across the country, most recently in Washington, DC, Virginia, Montana and Wyoming.
The gang already has footholds in California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Louisiana, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and Wisconsin, according to the memo and previous reporting by The Post.
The gang has only increased its “violent tendencies” as it spreads, the memo added.
Tren de Aragua’s arrival in the nation’s capital and nearby Virginia coincided with “increases in migrant populations” there, the memo stated.
“As the population of Venezuelan nationals continues to increase, the potential for violent TdA migrants is highly probable,” the memo warned.
In one run-in with the cutthroat gang in Virginia, cops in Fairfax County arrested three suspected members in August 2023 for shoplifting.
One of the suspects had a fake Venezuelan ID, and all three bore the gang’s signature tattoos.
The gang’s members are targeting the DC area because they can travel with ease to nearby suburbs in northern Virginia to carry out thefts, robberies and assaults, the memo said.
Its members are increasingly engaged in “lower-level fraud and theft schemes,” sending their stolen funds “back to South America as a means of financing additional criminal enterprises,” the memo said.
In one case cited in the document, a suspected Tren de Aragua member withdrew $118,000 from a Florida bank account with “fraudulent check deposits” and wired the money to bank accounts in Venezuela before any fraud was detected.
The sheriff of Wyoming’s most populous county told The Post on Monday that while he “would not say they have established a presence” in the Western state, he is holding a suspected TdA member in his jail.
“We have a person in our jail who is suspected of being TdA who is being held for trial in December for being in possession of a car that was stolen in Colorado,” Laramie County Sheriff Brian Kozak said.
“This is the only arrest of a possible TdA member in Wyoming, and he was just passing through when he was arrested. We have not seen an increase in Venezuelan immigrants in Wyoming, especially the criminal gang type,” he insisted.
TdA members embedded themselves in the waves of millions of migrants who crossed the US-Mexico border during the Biden-Harris administration. With no information-sharing between the US and Venezuela to detect the gang members, they were easily released into the US, according to US Border Patrol sources.
Further complicating the disastrous situation is a fraught relationship between the Biden-Harris administration and Venezuela’s Maduro regime, which refuses to accept deportation flights carrying Venezuelans from the US back to the South American country.
