1. In a Sunday Night surprise, the trans healthcare coverage ban has been removed from the military NDAA.

Congressional leaders released the negotiated bill this evening, and though the House AND Senate contained the provision, it is not in the final bill!

Trans Healthcare Coverage Ban Stripped From Negotiated Military NDAA Bill In Sunday Night Surprise
Anti-DEI and sports ban provisions for the military still exist in the bill, but the removal of a health care provision is a major victory for transgender people in congressional legislation.

Many of you may have heard that trans girls are now banned from Girlguiding in the United Kingdom, their version of the Girl Scouts as we know them in the United States.

It is a cruel new low in a country that has treated trans people horrifically in recent years.

The latest from S. Baum.
UK's 'Girl Scout' Group Has Banned Trans Girls From Joining In Cruel New Low
“This Government must be held responsible for the long-lasting damage they are doing to a generation of LGBTQ+ people.”

This is like if Tyson stopped selling consumer chicken. RAM is about to cost as much as a brand new pc. The cost of everything from tablets, to phones, to laptops will skyrocket. All because AI data centers are consuming all the available RAM they can get.

1. Missouri prefiled bills are in, and the anti-trans panic continues.

One even goes as far as to ban social transition in schools.

Any teacher who "supports" it, including name changes, pronouns, or "treatment," would be fired.

Even with parent permission!

1. Over Thanksgiving, texts from Dem. Sen Ruben Gallego leaked where he repeats far-right talking points on masculinity, lamenting that Democratic women "look like men."

Using far-right gender-panic rhetoric will not ingratiate the Democratic Party towards men.
