Perfect example of political media operating under the post-truth standard that (1) distorts the facts until the parties look approximately equal, and (2) holds “do MAGA voters care?” as a higher standard than “is it true?” or “is it important for the public to know about this?”

In the last 3 days, the Supreme Court ruled trans people have (again!) lost access to valid passports, a federal district court legalized bullying against (only!) trans kids, and Cornell University joined the growing number of colleges agreeing to discriminate/ban trans people. When is it enough??
