Mr. President, most Americans know that there are two sexes, male and female, and that sex is rooted in science. Most Americans also know that we ought to treat all people, including those who feel conflicted about their gender, with respect and dignity, without sacrificing the truth in the process. These beliefs are now under attack from some of the most powerful corporations in the history of the world. Just a few weeks ago, while House Democrats were passing their far-left Equality Act, the leftwing media was busy canceling Dr. Seuss, Amazon quietly erased a book from its online store without notice, without warning, without explanation. That book is ``When Harry Became Sally: Responding to the Transgender Moment by Ryan Anderson.'' Amazon claims it banned this book for violating its brandnew policy on ``hate speech.'' Of course, that excuse is arbitrary and patently false. You can go to Amazon right now--right now you can go to Amazon on your phone or on your computer and buy copies of actually hateful books. You can get Hitler's ``Mein Kampf'' shipped to your door with free Amazon Prime delivery. You can get the ``Unabomber Manifesto,'' written by a serial killer who murdered 3 people and maimed 23 others. You can even get ``How to Blow up a Pipeline.'' I assume the title speaks for itself. All those books are available for purchase on Amazon right now, one click away.…
