President Donald Trump and his allies at the Federal Communications Commission want to take their war on LGBTQ people to a screen near you.

The agency is weighing whether to add a warning label to television shows when transgender or nonbinary people are referenced in children’s programs. The FCC announced the proposed labeling in April, with the first round of public comments ending on May 22. The labels would be instituted by the TV Oversight Management Board, which sets ratings for programs.

All of this is part of Republicans’ effort to demonize and ostracize transgender people by portraying them as a threat to children — a crusade the GOP is shamelessly waging as the Trump administration withholds portions of the Epstein files and defends the president’s pardoning of Jan. 6 insurrectionists, including people who were later charged with child sex crimes.

The filing form to submit a public comment on the proposed warning label is here.
