The Contrarian: Half of LGBTQ+ Americans Have Gone Back Into the Closet. Here's Why. [View all]
Jun 10, 2026 #PrideMonth #GayRights #LGBTQ
Human Rights Campaign President Kelley Robinson joins April Ryan for an urgent Pride Month conversation about what's really happening to LGBTQ+ Americans under the Trump administration. New HRC polling reveals that nearly half of the community has gone back into the closet in at least one area of their lives. Robinson explains exactly why that's so dangerous for the future of gay rights in America.
From Trump's criminal subpoenas targeting transgender patients and their families to the 10th anniversary of the Pulse nightclub massacre, this is the conversation corporate media won't have during Pride Month.
