When public officials threaten private citizens

Four members of Alabama’s congressional delegation attacked a private citizen last week.

And now we’re all in danger.

Not a person accused of harming anyone, much less committing a crime. Not a person who, by any rational standard, counts as a public figure.

This person is transgender. That got someone on Facebook very upset. The state’s conservative media launched a wave of attacks on this person. Libs of TikTok followed suit.

And Aderholt, Palmer, Strong and Tuberville joined in the howling. Strong even said outright that this person should be removed.

Again: the “issue” is that a transgender person has a job. That’s it.
