At some point, you’ve just got to say: enough is enough.
High school track athletes Alexa Anderson and another young female competitor recently decided they’d had it.
Tired of watching biological males compete in girls’ sports—and win—they took a quiet but powerful stand: they refused to share the podium.
NEW: The two brave teenage girls who protested a biological male taking their spot by turning their backs on the podium were silenced by officials.
Now they’re fired up—and speaking out louder than ever.

How were they rewarded? Silenced by school officials. Told to sit down, smile, and pretend everything was fine.
But it’s not fine. It hasn’t been fine for a while.
Girls Are Fed Up
Alexa didn’t throw a tantrum. She didn’t scream or insult anyone.
She simply stood up—or rather, stepped down—from the podium. In doing so, she spoke louder than a thousand press conferences.
Across the country, more and more girls—and parents—are saying they’re fed up.
Fed up with the rules being bent. Fed up with staying quiet. Fed up with being told their concerns are “phobic” or “extreme” just for wanting a level playing field.
The Facts Don’t Lie
Let’s stop pretending this is complicated. It’s not.
A recent AP-NORC poll shows that 70% of Americans oppose letting biological males compete in girls’ and women’s sports. Among Republicans, that number jumps to 90%. Even 63% of independents agree.
This isn’t some fringe opinion—it’s basic common sense.
And yet, here we are—again—watching teenage girls get punished for speaking the truth.
The Federal Government Is Finally Pushing Back
Back in February, President Trump signed an executive order aimed at stopping this nonsense.
The order says schools that allow biological males to compete in girls’ sports risk losing federal funding.
California, of course, ignored it—and now faces a Title IX investigation led by U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli.
The Justice Department is asking the right question: Does letting males compete against girls violate the very law meant to protect female athletes?
Hint: It does.
California’s Half-Baked “Fix”
Rather than admit there’s a problem, California officials made a laughable move. They added more spots in track meets so more biological girls could qualify—even while still letting transgender athletes compete.
That’s like fixing a rigged card game by giving the losers more chairs at the table.
It’s not a solution. It’s an insult.
This Isn’t Compassion—It’s Cowardice
Let’s be clear: No one is saying transgender students shouldn’t play sports.
But girls shouldn’t have to give up their podiums, scholarships, and dreams to make room for someone born male.
Where’s the compassion for these girls? Where’s the fairness for them?
This Issue Isn’t Going Away
Whether you live in Oregon, California, or anywhere else, this is coming to your town if it hasn’t already.
In fact, the same post that shared Alexa’s story suggested this could be a political game-changer. If Democrats keep pushing these policies, they may lose voters who are done pretending that men and women are exactly the same.
This isn’t about hate. It’s about truth, biology, and basic fairness. The majority of Americans know it.
Final Thought
What Alexa Anderson did took courage. It shouldn’t have—but it did.
She stood her ground, and in doing so, reminded the rest of us that sometimes, you’ve got to say what everyone’s thinking—even when it’s hard.
So here’s the message to school boards, athletic associations, and politicians: We’re not mad. We’re not hateful. We’re just done.
Done pretending.
Done staying quiet.
Done letting our daughters come in second to someone who never should’ve been in their lane to begin with.
