Vice President Kamala Harris signaled during an interview on Wednesday evening that she will take taxpayer money to fund transgender surgeries for criminals locked up in prison.
Harris made the extreme remarks during a contentious interview with Fox News anchor Bret Baier in which she struggled to answer nearly every question that was asked.
Baier noted that an ad from the Trump campaign has really landed with voters that features Harris stating on video that she supports “surgery for prisoners.”
“Every transgender inmate in the prison system would have access,” she said.
“So are you still in support of using taxpayer dollars to help prison inmates or detained illegal aliens to transition to another gender?” Baier asked.
“I will follow the law,” Harris responded, “and it’s a law that Donald Trump actually followed. You’re probably familiar with now — it’s a public report that under Donald Trump’s administration, these surgeries were available to, on a medical necessity basis, to people in the federal prison system.”
“And I think, frankly, that ad from the Trump campaign is a little bit of like throwing, you know, stones when you live in a glass house,” she claimed.
However, Baier noted that Trump never promoted the surgeries and no surgeries ever took place under this administration.
Harris lashed out: “Well, you know what, you got to take responsible [sic] for what happened in your administration.”
“He spent $20 million on those ads trying to create a sense of fear in the voters, because he actually has no plan in this election that is about focusing on the needs of the American people,” Harris claimed. “Whereas, at $20 million in that ad, on an issue that, as it relates to the biggest issues that affect the American people, it’s really quite remote.”

Wow. This section on transgenderism was another dodge for Kamala Harris.
