Trump’s speech to Congress: Maine lawmakers express praise for president’s rejection of men
Rep. Laurel Libby, Republican of Maine, praised President Donald Trump for his remarks to keep biological men out during a speech in a joint meeting of Congress Tuesday night.
Libby was condemned in a social media post in the Maine House of Representatives, which noted that a transgender athlete won the women’s competition. Libby also had a fight with Maine Gov. Janet Mills with how the president fell in February.

The two fight for the state’s decision not to change their gender engagement policies to comply with the president’s executive orders to separate biological men from girls and women’s movements. Trump threatened to collect federal funds for schools in Maine if the state does not comply with the state.
Trump cheered loudly when he mentioned the executive order Tuesday night. Payton McNabb’s story was severely hurt when a transgender athlete stabbed her in the face during a high school volleyball game. She couldn’t finish her high school career on the court.
“Schools will kick out of the women’s team or they will lose all federal funds,” Trump said.

The bill prevents men from getting out of women’s sports, without the support of the Senate Dem: Who are they?
Libby wrote on X that Mills must be “absolutely panicked.”
“Her failure has zeroed in Maine’s competition to protect the women’s movement. President Trump is sending a clear message to her and other leaders across the country: Our girls’ voices will be heard and their rights will be respected.”
Trump’s remarks come the day after Senate Democrats blocked protections for women and girls in sports. Republicans needed 60 votes to overcome the fiterib vote, but only received 51 votes.
