LGBT Activists To Spend Millions Reminding Voters About Biden Leftist Agenda

If you're one of those rare voters who just can't get enough of LGBT extremism, you're in luck! The Human Rights Campaign (HRC) plans to drop big bucks reminding swing-state Americans how they've successfully overtaken classrooms, sports, business, entertainment, and politics with radical gender ideology under Joe Biden. Of course, most people would say they don't need the recap. As far as they're concerned, the last three years of the Biden administration have been one long ad for the LGBT movement.

According to HRC, the $15 million campaign will focus primarily on six battleground states they believe could "make or break Biden's reelection bid": Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin. Organization President Kelley Robinson told NBC, "This group of voters, when you break them down by state, can actually make the difference. ... This is a powerful constituency, a powerful community. It's our job to make sure that they have the tools that they need to show out to the polls. So we're going to be knocking on doors, making phone calls, engaging every member that we've got to make sure that our people turn out."


And while no constituency should be happier with Biden -- after all, he did more to advance radical transgenderism than every president combined -- the LGBT population's outsized influence in the White House doesn't exactly translate to election politics. Even this 7.6% of the country (a generous estimate, many believe) isn't exactly thrilled with Biden, despite his unpopular decision to declare war on every social, scientific, and biological norm.

Despite the White House's incessant pandering, his most overrepresented base (apart from illegal immigrants, who, at least for now, can't technically vote) doesn't necessarily believe that Biden's overt LGBT gestures are enough. "Like much of the country, LGBTQ+ Americans aren't particularly enamored with the president," ABC News warns. "Though they're more likely to approve of the job Biden is doing than Americans overall, the president's approval rating was still flat with this group: An equal share (47 percent) said they approved of the job Biden was doing as said they disapproved."

That's bad news for an administration that's put all of its eggs in the transgender basket. Interestingly, "a plurality (30 percent) of LGBTQ+ Americans identified their political leanings as "moderate centrist/independent" in March polling. "When asked to place themselves on a scale from 0 to 10, with 0 being the most liberal and 10 being the most conservative, the average response was 3.9. Similarly, a plurality said that they'd like politicians to be a 5 on that scale. And when asked what they thought was the most pressing issue in America today, the top response, with 24 percent, was 'jobs and the economy.'"


For three years, Biden has been willing to hemorrhage moderate and Independent voters with outrageous gender ideology that erases girls' sports, parental rights, privacy, and children's health and safety in the hopes that his far-Left base will ride in and rescue him. That seems less and less likely, especially now, in a volatile political environment where his unpopularity is spilling over into the Democrats' anti-Semitic protestors.

And while HRC estimates that there are 75 million "equality voters" who base their vote on LGBT rights, no one is quite sure how that's possible. The topic didn't even make Gallup's 14 top voter concerns for 2024. In fact, "lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender rights" weren't even listed in March's poll, which is a twist from previous election years when it perennially ranked dead last. Maybe Gallup didn't want to expose what a political loser the issue is -- or maybe there wasn't enough concern for it to even register. Either way, it's a revealing shift.

At the end of the day, experts say, HRC may not only be losing millions but also making things worse for Joe Biden. "This will not have the effect they think it will," Family Research Council's Meg Kilgannon told The Washington Stand. In fact, she said, "I hope groups like the Human Rights Campaign complain very loudly about how oppressed they are while the Biden administration does their bidding to force men into women's sports, secretly transition kids at school behind parents' backs, mandate pronoun usage, and pay for mutilating and sterilizing surgeries in the military and on children. That's not going to go over well with the average voter," she warns, "and may further alienate independent and minority voters."

Saturating swing states with an LGBT message most voters have already rejected -- and the affected 7% don't seem to prioritize -- isn't going to help Biden's chances. What it will do is remind the fence-sitters where the president has spent the majority of his time -- and it isn't on lowering inflation, prices, and crime; it isn't on protecting us from China and Iran or even stopping the stampede across the border. No, his perverse fixation on LGBT extremism and punishing its critics exceeds anything this country has ever seen.


"This moment feels so important, not just for this election," the HRC president said, "but really for what it means for the future of our community. We are seeing an incredible backlash in states across the country to the progress that we've made ... that's led by an opposition that doesn't want us to have the rights we have today." Robinson is right to worry that the pendulum is swinging away from her agenda, but it's really no surprise considering the nightmare parents are finding themselves in at work, their children's school, even their daughters' swim meets.

As FRC Action Director Matt Carpenter told TWS, "The Biden-Harris administration has prioritized left-wing sexual and gender ideology over basically everything else. Everything from foreign policy to public schools and national defense must include some LGBT-oriented policy in this administration. They even rebranded Resurrection Sunday as 'Transgender Visibility Day.'"

After having this agenda rubbed in their faces for the last three years, Carpenter believes "parents are waking up to the reality that this ideology, promoted by the Biden-Harris administration and HRC, is being used as a wedge between them and their children. I think young people are waking up to the insanity of gender ideology, in sports and medicine specifically. And I think Americans are tired of everything needing to be rebranded along LGBT-lines, as we've seen recently with even woke corporations de-prioritizing LGBT-themes in their advertising and products."

If HRC thinks they can win people over, good luck, Carpenter says. "They have their work cut out for them."
