As a trans woman who is proudly anti-fascist, I'm just wondering if Trump designating me a terrorist TWICE cancels out?

Am I back to upstanding citizen? Or am I a SUPER DUPER terrorist?

letting it get here because you worried about fairness in field hockey is despicable; letting it continue because you read NYT op-eds is monstrous.

if you're cis & not all-in to stand for trans kids, i don't know what else you want. what you'll get is dead kids. please fight with us.

“Over the last 75 years we’ve seen a sharp decline in the number of doctors recommending cigarettes to their patients. And those that do report they often face harsh criticism by their colleagues.

What could possibly explain this anti-tobacco ideology that’s taken hold of the medical profession?”
Personally I think it's totally defensible for the head of a meteorology department to say, "you can't work here unless you believe in climate change." That department is going to end up with zero conservatives in it but it's not the department that needs to change!

Cool so what happens if GOP attach a national abortion ban to a CR? You'll vote for that too?

🚮
My YES vote is *not* an endorsement of this deeply flawed CR.

My YES vote is 💯 about refusing to shut our government down.

I refuse to punish working families and plunge millions of Americans into chaos.
 
I will never, ever, ever, ever, ever vote to shut our government down.

1. Finally some fight.

"Have you no decency!?" asked Rep. Keating after a Republican rep called Sarah McBride "Mr. McBride" repeatedly.

McBride shot back, calling the chairman "Madam Chairman."

Fireworks erupted, Dems protested, and the hearing was cancelled.

I consider @aoc.bsky.social the leader of the Democratic party now. She totally gets it and her style and approach is what we need right now.

Trans people are facing extreme danger at this moment in time — with a President & a political movement dedicated to eliminating them from public life.

Now is the time for Democrats to stand firmly with trans people. The Governor’s remarks to Charlie Kirk do not meet that standard.
