Dylan Mulvaney, a transgender creator who has chronicled her transition with her "Days of Girlhood" series, on Sunday responded to a slew of Caitlyn Jenner's tweets in which she commented on Mulvaney's body. Mulvaney said what prompted the response was one of Jenner's tweets, in which she said, "He is talking about his penis!" Mulvaney then pulled up a screenshot of a different Jenner tweet, in which she wrote, in part, "Dylan...congrats your trans with a penis." In the video, Mulvaney said the experience made her realize that transgender women should not feel compelled to avoid wearing tight pants or tuck their penises. Prior to Mulvaney posting her video, Jenner said in a tweet she had "never received more death threats."

Sen. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., is the latest conservative — and perhaps the most high-profile one — to target a 25-year-old TikTok influencer in what appears to be an anti-transgender vitriol campaign. In a tweet shared Monday night, the Republican lawmaker embedded a TikTok video created by transgender woman Dylan Mulvaney and wrote, "Dylan Mulvaney, Joe Biden, and radical left-wing lunatics want to make this absurdity normal." Mulvaney, who has over 8.4 million followers on TikTok, interviewed President Joe Biden at the White House last week for the social-media focused news outlet NowThis News. In her interview with the president, Mulvaney pressed Biden on whether he thinks states should have a right to ban gender-affirming health care. The episode, titled "The Beauty Of… Girlhood with Dylan Mulvaney," faced a slew of transphobic backlash, forcing Ulta to disable comments from the episode on YouTube.

President Biden’s unscripted public appearances aren’t that frequent, but when they occur they are often an adventure. Take his entirely fanciful comment in an interview released this weekend about his $426 billion student loan forgiveness plan. The President sat down with some young liberal activists from NowThis News who asked him a question about student loans. While explaining the details about the forgiveness, Mr. Biden claimed that “It’s passed. I got it passed by a vote or two.”
