Just when you think FEMA can't be made worse, they find a way to do it. This is going to harm elderly, disabled, and poor people the most.
FEMA will stop knocking on doors to provide aid to disaster survivors, per a memo obtained by WIRED this week. It comes as the agency is shifting responsibility for recovery efforts to local authorities.
Oh, and it's hurricane preparedness week, btw.

A reminder that one of the biggest reasons Musk and the far right are so focused on trans people is because they literally believe we are a conspiracy to lower white birth rates.
It would appear CNN was also at the eugenics conference? Why are all these mainstream news orgs at a 200-person event where all the speakers are eugenicists and racists? www.cnn.com/2025/04/11/u...

1. On Wednesday, Massachusetts House Democrats passed a bill that could ban transgender people from sports - the first blue state to pass such a measure through a chamber.
They used a procedural motion to shield vulnerable Democrats from taking a vote.

Massachusetts House Dems Pass Bill That Could Ban Trans Students From Sports; Senate Next
Democrats used a procedural motion to water the sports ban down rather than kill it outright out of fear of taking a vote and putting members on record.

hi, cis folks!
if we *are* going to talk ACA, RFK's HHS proposed a rule to remove *all trans care* from ACA essential health benefit status.
~25mil people are insured by ACA & if 1% are trans, that's 250,000 people who'd lose access to care.
that's bad! take 2 minutes to stand with trans people.🧵

You should still be wearing a mask. There are still immunocompromised people in the places you go who don't need you spreading covid, which is still going around. I don't know why "someone will make fun of me" is a bigger concern than "I might kill someone spreading this disease, myself included."
