He is somehow the only person in US politics so far pointing out the obvious fact that the anti-trans movement is fundamentally a vicious, puerile, middle-school-bully campaign against a tiny group of eccentric people.

Adam Hamilton on transgender rights:
“I don’t think we should take a small group of people and bully them, pick on them, and hurt them. I understand one thing really clearly when it comes to transgender people, and that is Jesus told me I was to love my neighbor as I love myself.”
“I’m gonna love the trans person as well as the straight person, male or female. We have to do better than picking on small groups. What’s happened is we’ve turned a group of people into a campaign issue because it polls well.”

Brazilian President Lula:
I always think God has been very generous to me, because there are so many people more prepared than I am, so many people with more degrees than I have, so many people who have read more books than I have, so many people who have studied more than I have.
And why was I chosen by God?
I was chosen by God because I always believe that God's finger is on my head. I always believe that.
So I want to thank God and thank you, the men and women of this country, for the strength you have shown.
