Top Dems silent after trans athlete they backed in SCOTUS case is accused of sexual harassment, intimidation

'Outnumbered' discusses a transgender athlete facing sexual harassment and intimidation allegations from two West Virginia high school students, with one case heading to the Supreme Court.

In November, 130 congressional Democrats signed an amicus brief supporting two transgender athletes who are plaintiffs in a pair of lawsuits that the U.S. Supreme Court is reviewing. The lawsuits challenged and blocked state laws in Idaho and West Virginia that banned biological males from women’s and girls’ sports. Supreme Court justices are set to review the cases, beginning with oral arguments on Jan. 13.

One of the plaintiffs in those cases, a transgender teen in West Virginia, has been accused of allegedly sexually harassing a former female teammate and using intimidation tactics against a female opponent, Fox News Digital reported Tuesday. 

Fox News Digital has reached out to offices of some Democrats who signed the brief asking if they stand behind their signatures, in light of the allegations. Fox News Digital has not received any responses.
