The Daughters of the American Revolution are in revolt — because trans zealots can’t leave ANYTHING alone

Last week the Daughters of the American Revolution marked America’s 250th anniversary not by honoring the nation’s Founders, but by miring itself in an unnecessary woke battle that threatens the organization’s very future.  

Delegates at the DAR’s 135th Continental Congress in Washington, DC, this past weekend defeated a member-driven attempt to limit membership to those “born female” — that is, to actual daughters.

The vote means the group’s leaders will get their way: They can now open membership to anyone who considers themselves to be female. 

The members’ resolution failed by a vote of 1,481 to 984 after a bitter procedural fight that many attendees say was engineered to produce exactly that outcome.

The Daughters, as they’re known, are women who can document direct descent from a patriot of the American Revolution.

It’s a women-only service organization that has offered leadership and educational opportunities to women since 1890.
