One party rule. There's no one to stand up and say no to the crazy.

The new pilot program will have $200,000 set aside for allocation after a unanimous vote by the Palm Springs City Council last week
."

Uh, you're going to need a lot more than $200,000, as everyone and their mother will be claiming they're "nonbinary"...

What is wrong with people?

"Twenty transgender and nonbinary Palm Springs residents will receive the free money funded by the taxpayers for 18 months, with advocacy-based health center DAP Health and LGBT advocacy group ***** Works managing the program.

A six-month design period will be the precursor of the program’s implementation, in which the group Mayors for a Guaranteed Income will be involved providing guidance.
"

Just twenty? How's that fair to the twenty-first tranny in Palm Springs?
I can't see how their legal council would even think that this would even be remotely legal due to the blatant discrimination. Unless they get some extreme liberal judge, I would expect this to be struck down by the courts.

Yep.

But moron city councils have a long track record of running afoul of the US constitution with various illegal actions.

If they are going to supplement someone’s income why not single mothers and elderly? How about veterans?

This is what I was afraid of that would come from democrats... first you are transgender, then you get lifetime government pork just for being one. So stupid. This society is going to collapse under the leadership of this party.

How is it legal to give away tax payer dollars to a specific group with the criteria being only a certain (trans)gender? Seems rather discriminatory.
