Trump: "We were the richest relatively -- think of this -- from 1870 to 1913. That was our richest. Because we collected tariffs ... we had so much wealth. Of course, now we give it away to transgender ... everybody gets a transgender operation."

Prime cast members from Armistead Maupin's Tales Of The City miniseries first broadcast on PBS in 1993. Critically acclaimed, PBS caved to pressure from right-wing hate groups and declined to produce/support a sequel.

Trump has spent literally half of his presidency at Mar-a-Lago.
Trump: "I don't think you can work from a home. Nobody is gonna work from home. They are gonna be going out, they're gonna play tennis, they're gonna play golf, they're gonna do a lot of things. They're not working."

As @mcbride.house.gov said, we will not let our trans and nonbinary communities be used as political pawns.

We will continue to show up for our community and fight back against attacks on our freedoms.

“Delete” the CFPB & IRS. Abolish bank regulators. Gut Social Security and Medicare.

The Musk-Trump administration’s plots all boil down to the same thing: swindle working people, funnel money to the ultra-rich.

"Vance had a chance to defend his OWN family, and he opted to defend the Indian-hating bigot instead. Where are the balls on these Republican men? ... Elon wants his DOGE kid who hates Indians back and Vance does his bidding... Do they castrate these guys at the door of the RNC?"

Emily, a U.S. Navy Commander with nearly two decades of service, deserves to keep protecting our country. We’re going to keep fighting for thousands of transgender servicemembers in the military and their families.

Trump wants to distract you from the fact that he gutted the Aviation Safety Committee and ousted the FAA administrator last week.

Don’t let him.

Roxanne Gay nails it.

"But to suggest we (Democrats, Liberals, Progressives) should yield even a little to Mr. Trump’s odious politics, to suggest we should compromise on the rights of trans people, for instance, and all of the other critical issues we care most about, is unacceptable."
