From the article: "Singing "we shall overcome" and waving the rainbow hues of the Pride flag, LGBTQ Iowans shared a message of hope on the heels of legislation dissolving civil rights protections for trans Iowans as they rallied at the Capitol.

"Tuesday's LGBTQ Day on the Hill comes less than two weeks after Gov. Kim Reynolds signed into law a bill removing gender identity as a protected class from the Iowa Civil Rights Act, the law that shields Iowans from discrimination in education, housing, employment, credit practices and public accommodations."

Fact Check
Yes, Trump posted link that included Nazi symbol for gay men in concentration camps

Social media users shared screenshots of a post from the president's Truth Social account in March 2025.

Claim:
U.S. President Donald Trump posted a link on Truth Social that displayed a symbol Nazis used to identify gay men in concentration camps.

Rating: True

Gender Nazis in West Virginian passed a bill allowing child genital identification exams for the purpose of identifying their “biological sex” without without parent's (or child's) consent.

Why?

It also defines a person as male or female, depending on whether they "produce eggs or sperm," ignoring the fact that no one produces sperm until puberty. It also says that all intersex people are “either male or female” but does not give a basis for assigning a sex to them.
