Florida Republican faces backlash for offensive remarks about transgender community.

Florida Republican lawmaker Webster Barnaby has faced calls to resign after calling transgender people "demons", "imps" and "mutants" during a hearing on a bathroom bill. Barnaby made a partial apology for his remarks, but LGBTQ+ activists have been protesting against a slew of anti-trans proposals placed before the Republican-dominated Florida legislature this year. Meanwhile, school officials in Florida's Indian River county are defending a principal's decision to remove the book Anne Frank's Diary: The Graphic Adaptation from his school library last month at the behest of the conservative parents' rights group Moms for Liberty.
