A Wyoming woman put MAGA's hypocrisy about "preferred pronouns" on full display after calling state Senator Tim French "Madam Chairman" while testifying before the Wyoming Senate Judiciary Committee.

Britt Boril of Casper, Wyoming, was testifying before the committee mere days after state Republicans passed S.F. 77, the “Compelled Speech Is Not Free Speech” Act," a bill prohibiting people from being "forced" to use correct gender pronouns for anyone. The state Senate still has to pass the bill because the state House changed a section regarding penalties for those who violate the legislation.


Boril started her testimony by referring to French as "Madam Chairman":

“Hello, thank you, Madam Chairman. As the senate overwhelmingly voted yes—"

French cut her off, saying:

“You can call me Mr. Chairman if you want."

But Boril persisted, citing S.F. 77:

“Well, I cannot be compelled to use your preferred pronouns as you have all voted."

French sputtered:

“Wait a minute, we’re talking about preferred pronouns, a lot of people are… I prefer to be called Chairman French. That’s my preferred pronoun."

Boril continued with her testimony after making her point further:

“I know, and you all voted that preferred pronouns cannot be compelled speech in S.F. 77."

You can watch what happened in the video below.

It was a hilarious example of malicious compliance—and people loved it.



Preferred gender pronouns are the pronouns a person prefers to be used when they are referred to, in order to indicate their gender identity.

As it became increasingly common for people to display their pronouns in the workplace or on social media profiles by both members of the LGBTQ+ community as well as allies who wanted to help normalize and encourage the practice and signal to others that they are in a safe space, the U.S. right has attacked and demonized the practice as "woke."

Unfortunately, with the reelection of Donald Trump, this virulently "anti-woke" right is more emboldened than ever with many MAGA legislators around the country even passing laws targeting the LGBTQ+ community.

Democratic Rep. Jamie Raskin Hit With Pushback After Offering Surprising Invite To MTG

Georgia MAGA Republican Representative and QAnon conspiracy theorist Marjorie Taylor Greene has found herself on the wrong side of MAGA Republican President Donald Trump, but on the right side of history when it comes to protecting women and children from sexual predators.

The split began in earnest with MTG's support of Kentucky Republican Representative Thomas Massie's discharge petition to force a House vote on Massie's bill, cosponsored by California Democratic Representative Ro Khanna: HR 185, the Epstein Files Transparency Bill.

'Shark Tank' Star Dragged After Whining About How Mamdani Hasn't Made Things 'Free' In NYC Yet

Billionaire former Shark Tank star Kevin O'Leary was criticized after sarcastically lamenting during a Fox Business interview that he expected "free" buses, meals and lodging after Zohran Mamdani was elected mayor of New York City—completely ignoring the fact that Mamdani isn't in office yet.

Mamdani won this month's election to become the next mayor of New York City, successfully weathering Islamophobic and racist attacks. The win marked a turning point in U.S. politics—Mamdani is a democratic socialist preparing to lead the global financial capital—and sent shockwaves around the world.
