10 is too much. needs to be 0. Thank you Trump!

[@targgthewise2892]

There is LITERALLY no controversy. 80% of the country want this to end. So zero controversy

[@davidyonce2238]

They SHOULD lose Federal Funding.

[@mikkosablamante308]

It’s not about how many trans are actively competing with women. .the point is, there shouldn’t be any at all.😒

[@carlogambino1979]

Thank God for Donald Trump. Winning.

[@DesignDelineations]

Mixed reactions from both side of the issue, huh? That's funny that you only let those on the left speak - just like every other local news channel I've seen. And just like every other channel that has the guts to keep their comments on, all comments are in favor of keeping men out of women's sports. This bias is unreal - is it like a Sinclair group thing that causes the "news" to be so homogeneous??

Sinclair planning to sell local affiliates. Recently the Bally broadcast, a subsidiary of Sinclair broadcast, went bankrupt due to 15/30 MLB & NBA & NHL regional sports transmission dispute. Half a decade ago they bought them from the FOX Sports, but Sinclair overpaid double.

Stop lying. 80% agree. This is his most popular Trump's EO.

[@Sean-v3o9h]

Good, not like those schools were being schools! Absolute waste and laundering of hard-earned money.

[@Hectorpartsshop]

The Rainbows are ALWAYS VICTIMS, VICTIMS AND VICTIMS.

[@Annie-t7m9w]

Good.

[@beast_a_tron6497]

About time

[@DLWELD]

What a world, where common sense requires heroism.

[@keithfaulkner6319]

One fake girl directly negatively affects hundreds of real girls, as every real girl on every team he/she/it/they/whatever plays against is cheated on. That one person does not have that right.

[@ginolorenzo9851]

this Is 2025 why are we having this Insane discussion

[@richardhowe9107]

How is this even an issue. Male and female only!

[@A.I.Friends]

So do you upset 10,000 woman, or 10 trans?

[@chriscalloway1669]

Ok

[@allantulli5546]

ten too many.

[@anthonycarlson2210]

Keep crying
