Before champion swimmer Riley Gaines began her address to Congress on Tuesday December 5, 2023, she was pummeled by Democratic Rep. Summer Lee of Pennsylvania.
Lee warned the Congress that they were about to hear a full diatribe that could only be described as transphobic and hateful. It was defamatory, disgraceful, and completely un-called for, but not to worry, Riley had a comeback answer that was to sweep across the national news cycle like a raging tsunami.
