1. Today, the Iowa Legislature shamefully stripped transgender people from the State Civil Rights Act.

It becomes the first state to ever strip any group from a civil rights act.

There were powerful speeches, and huge protets.

The latest from Mira Lazine.

Oh my god.

They removed "transgender" from the page about Trans woman Sylvia Rivera's page at the National Park service.

"Sylvia Rivera began fighting for gay and _____ rights"

WOW.

At this point, there are only two options:

A) Elon is so dishonest that he is willing to peddle obvious lies to score PR points

B) Elon really is this stupid

1. The state department has removed transgender people from its website and just reads "LGB Travelers," as reported by a number of journalists.

However, on further investigation, it is also removing trans-specific directions for individual countries.

State Department Travel Safety Website Changes "LGBTQI+ Travelers" to "LGB Travelers"
The change is an attempt to insert a divide in the LGBTQIA+ community by the Trump administration, and to erase transgender people from any consideration or recognition.

If your child has lost care due to hospitals closing or stopping care, PLEASE contact Chase Strangio immediately.

I truly believe the only chance we have is through protests at hospitals that are complying with executive orders in advance.

These hospitals are attempting to detransition patients or deny transition to new ones because they are scared of Trump.

DC Children's Hospital has just contacted me to tell me my reporting is "inaccurate" that they have stopped providing gender affirming care.

How is it inaccurate?

They still provide "mental healthcare."

Read my response.

This is how you say “go fuck yourself sideways with a porcupine” in inspector general speak.

Going to be interesting to see how the administration responds

Trump cannot abrogate birthright citizenship under the 14th Amendment by way of executive order. That’s not how constitutional rights work.

No matter where you fall on the TikTok ban, the President undoing by “executive order” a law passed by Congress and upheld unanimously by the Supreme Court is an unconstitutional abuse of power.
