Fuck Trump. Fuck ICE. #FreePalestine. Trans rights are human rights.

This will be my thread concerning my FOIA Request to the EHRC. I think I got some actually worthwhile files, but I'll start with sharing the files so that other people can get their eyes on them.

They provided considerable correspondence between EHRC staff and antitrans orgs.
For what it's worth, this is what I'm waiting for them to respond to.

They're supposed to respond in 4 days. My expectation is that they will give themselves an extension, or deny it with some excuse:
The Lord of The Rings movies were rated PG-13. By current rules that means that each film could contain one use of the word "Fuck". Which line are you altering to insert the most useful swear word?

"There is some good in this world, Mr. Frodo, and it’s worth fucking for."

I think it's an interesting note that TikTok had more active US users than there were Kamala Harris or Donald Trump voters, *combined*. That's how broad this censorship effort on behalf of Israel is. The US government ceased a major source of communication to redirect it in the service of Israel.
TikTok goes the clock yet the party def just stopped. #tiktoksale #update

One thing that's remarkable about this is that everyone seems to recognize that this is an absolutely insane framing. This popped up on Facebook for me, and almost all the comments were calling @ktla.com for this absurd framing.

The White House has been caught.

The administration inserted a photo of Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross into the Epstein files and falsely implied it showed them with victims.

In reality, it’s a publicly available fundraiser photo featuring Jackson and Ross’s own children.

Under RFK Jr., U.S. plans to stop recommending most vaccines, defer to doctors
The plan, which is not finalized, suggests children get fewer shots and shifts to a model telling parents to consult doctors to make their own vaccine choices.

What this really tells us is that the Democrats would rather lose again, even lose forever, than change what they're doing.

It's got to be Palestine. That's the issue that's moving voters, and that's the thing they won't ever change.
Hide the Autopsy Report, Lose the Narrative

Hear me out…

At the exact moment Dems should be drawing a clean contrast with Trump’s culture of secrecy and cover ups, the DNC is choosing opacity.

Hiding the 2024 autopsy report isn’t coming across like strategy, it looks like fear of hard truths.

Won't someone please actually listen to doctors on this? It's refreshing to see an institution actually get it right for once. And it only because elite politicians weren't allowed to hand pick the voices.

Cis people really have no idea how it feels to watch a regime hold a press conference to admit, on camera, the pogrom against trans people they've been waging for 11 months is not only real, but they're going to double down on genocide and try to wipe out all the children first.

1. The federal government has just attempted to enact a national trans youth care ban.

A new HHS rule would shutter most gender-affirming care for trans youth nationwide.

It violates multiple laws and the constitution, and will likely go into effect in a few months.

Our latest story here:
Nationwide Trans Youth Care Ban Imminent As Trump Admin Announces "Nuclear Option" Federal Rule
The new federal rule formalizes previous threats to hospitals to pull Medicaid funding, and represents a significant legal stretch by this administration.
