No surprises here…stigma and discrimination are the problems.
A systematic review of all research on transgender military members was just published this week. Of course, the conclusion was that trans service members don't undermine readiness. They contribute effectively - stigma and discrimination are the problem. mendingmedics.com/my-research/

If Democrats win the majority, Trump’s authoritarian plan will be foiled — and he knows that.

Most cars with an auto unlock feature can also have that feature disabled. Whether to protect yourself from gov agents or as a smart safety choice in itself, you should consider turning auto unlock off.

“The agents open the door, which unlocked automatically when she put the gearshift in park, they drag her out and force her to the ground. She said the agents were overly aggressive and physical as they pinned her down and handcuffed her, leaving her with multiple cuts, scrapes and bruises.”

Kristi Noem is also failing at running FEMA | Arkansas Democrat Gazette
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem is in trouble because her boss' attempt to use her agencies to occupy Minneapolis has been a tragic disaster. Gaining less attention, for now, is her equally problematic oversight of several other disasters that weren't created by ICE. It's less of an affront to democracy than what's happened in Minneapolis, but a greater threat to leave millions of Americans immiserated.

Trump's gutting of agencies doesn't just harm dedicated federal workers like my constituent Claire, who enforced fair housing laws at HUD.
It harms the communities and the people they deserve, and it prevents agencies from fulfilling their mission.

This is a FedGov attack on EVERY state, blessed by a federal court, in defiance of the Constitutional separation of powers and the sovereignty of states (dual sovereigns). Without sovereign states conducting their own elections without interference, there is no Constitution, no FedGov.

Kristi Noem deserves to be impeached for the things you know about: mass deportation policies that have gotten Americans killed.
But folks aren't talking enough about what she's not doing: keeping us safe.
She's gutting disaster relief agencies and putting us all at risk.
