Conservatives took a break from funding pray-away-the-gay camps to express concern over the danger posed to children by gender-neutral bathrooms. Donald Trump tapped a climate denier as an energy adviser, raising the shocking possibility that his policy prescriptions aren't fact-based. And Trump regularly pranked journalists on the phone, reminding them that if their refrigerator is running, they better build a wall around it to keep it from taking American jobs. This is HUFFPOST HILL for Friday, May 13th, 2016:
OBAMA EITHER PROTECTING OR ENDANGERING KIDS -- DEPENDS ON WHOM YOU ASK - Richard Perez-Pena and Jack Healy: "The Obama administration’s directive Friday on the use of school bathrooms and locker rooms by transgender students intensified the latest fierce battle in the nation’s culture wars, with conservatives calling it an illegal overreach that will put children in danger and advocates for transgender rights hailing it as a breakthrough for civil rights. The policy drew a swift backlash from conservative politicians, groups and parents. In Texas, Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick appealed to local school boards and superintendents not to abide by the administration’s directive, noting that there were just a few weeks left in the school year and time over the summer to fight the policy with legislation or legal action. 'We will not be blackmailed,' he said. 'I believe it is the biggest issue facing families and schools in America since prayer was taken out of public schools,' Mr. Patrick, a Republican, said at a news conference. 'Parents are not going to send their 14-year-old daughters into the shower or bathroom with 14-year-old boys. It’s not going to happen.'" [NYT]
