Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) gave an unhinged speech on the floor of the U.S. Senate on Tuesday attacking trans people as ‘deranged’ and suggested we need to “bring back mental institutions as a normal part of our society.”
“It is the best interest of our country to bring back mental institutions as a normal part of our society, instead of sweeping it under the rug,” Tuberville said. pic.twitter.com/nYknA0xceG

From The Advocate:
Appearing next to a poster featuring a pregnant man emoji that read, “Transgenderism Is a Mental Disease,” Tuberville opened his speech by saying that he wanted to speak about “people who the left refers to as ‘transgender’,” saying that he would instead use the term “gender-confused” because the term “transgender,” in his view, “implies that it is possible for a person to change their God-given sex.”
Throughout the speech, Tuberville made multiple derogatory references to transgender people, including saying, “It is not normal. It is a cry for help, and our society needs to stop affirming people who are suffering from this mental illness.”
He later said, “Why is the Democrat Socialist party elevating these people who are clearly mentally deranged? Why is that happening? Joe Biden had multiple gender-confused people working in high-profile jobs in his administration.”
Tuberville also falsely claimed some doctors who treat trans people “don’t even tell parents that their underage kid is undergoing these dangerous procedures, and they go behind the parents backs.” This literally never happens.
The senator then took a left-turn towards the “furry community” declaring that “many airline pilots, flight attendants, and air traffic controllers are part of the furry community.”
Wut….?
