The government using its power to erase all references to a particular group of people is usually the first step down a very very dark path.
The National Park Service eliminated references to transgender people from its Stonewall National Monument web page, removing the “T” in references to LGBTQ+ on the official site for the Greenwich Village monument, which marks a milestone in the fight for gay rights.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who killed so many children in Samoa they ran out of child-sized coffins, has been confirmed to lead Health and Human Services.
The vote was 52-48. All Dems and Mitch McConnell, whose fault this is, voted no. All other Republicans voted yes. The blood will be on their hands.

The freezing of federal grants, the firing of all inspector generals, the immunization of political violence - does everybody not see what’s happening?
In a blitzkrieg, Trump is trying to collapse our democracy - and probably our economy - and seize control.
Call it what it is.

On this inauguration day, a simple point from Assigned Media:
Trans people are 1 percent of the population. The ruling GOP has made persecuting us their top priority.
Any talk of distractions or common sense must reckon with this. A defenseless minority, relentlessly pursued, because of hate.

Thinking of all the people who lost their community with the TikTok ban. Small bus., artists, writers, the folks who loved to share their niche knowledge. But mostly I am thinking about the disability community, I know many relied on that app. I really hope we all find a place to rebuild. ♥️♥️

The fact that the Democratic Party didn't do a national PR blitz stating that "in order to provide funding to Ukraine to defend against a criminal invasion, Republicans want to ban your use of TikTok" shows how weak they are. They didn't even try. They actively endorsed it.

The United Health CEO getting fatally shot is going to be reported as murder.
The people who died because his company denied them care will reported as statistics, if it's reported at all.

And RFK as health secretary and Musk promising to gut federal agencies (including the Centers for Disease Control) is the best news Bird Flu, MPox and other diseases trying to emerge have had this year .
Just in case you were wondering who Trump has just put in charge of Health in the US, here are some of the views RFK has espoused:

- Antidepressants are to blame for school shootings
- Chemicals in the water supply could turn children transgender...
