This is so disgusting. You can tell they're doing their best to cause as much harm to trans prisoners as possible within the confines of the law. Minimising safety at all costs
Fucking hell.

So the government just put out a handful of documents about trans people in prison, and the position is that barring some unlikely circumstances, if you're a trans woman you get put in a men's prison.

Here's the flowchart, details to follow:

it's cool how no one is arguing that Trump set the precedent for Biden to pardon Hunter, only that Biden is setting a bad precedent. As always, Dems have agency and Reps don't

Dems already did this on immigration and got painted as open border communist globalists anyway. This simply does not work. Dems need to have a back bone and actually argue from their differences with conservatives rather than bending over and adopting conservative lite positions because of polls.
growing chorus of “throw trans people to the wolves” from high profile libs is not shocking but it is certainly nerve-wracking lol

the important question isn’t “did Harris lose because the left is too woke?” it’s “why isn’t Donald Trump in federal prison?” We’re being subjected to lectures about politics by the people who held all of the power and let this dipshit slip through their grasp.
