I'm going to say this as somebody who for several reasons, including disability + financial issues cannot relocate to a different country: if you can get the fuck out of here. Live and survive.

9. Not every can or wants to leave - many, if not most, will stay and fight as we always have. But many of us can no longer find safety here.

It is hard to pick a moment and say this is when we should open our doors. I stress to other countries: do not wait until it is too late.

8. Since then, policy after policy has chipped away at what few rights transgender people retained in the United States, reducing them to second-class citizens. The administration has cracked down on medical care, now targeting trans youth and adults.

7. Week after week, the administration’s policies grow more punitive. In its opening salvo, Trump’s executive order banning transgender people from the military declared them inherently “dishonorable, untruthful, and undisciplined”—an official government stance.

6. When conservative leaders openly talk about “eradication” and declare the elimination of all gender-affirming care their “endgame,” the calculation many trans people make is a grim one—that safety may no longer be possible within U.S. borders.

5. Many transgender people have told me they are planning or actively working to leave the United States—and some have already done so successfully. Most are using existing immigration pathways, such as job-based visas or close family ties in safer countries.

Not every trans person has that.

4. The reality is clear: life as a transgender person in America is becoming unlivable for many. The time has come for countries with strong human rights protections to extend refuge to those who can no longer exist safely or openly within U.S. borders.

2. The situation for transgender people in the United States is unraveling at an alarming pace. Teachers now face criminal investigation for the basic act of respecting a student’s name. Medical care for both transgender youth and adults is being gutted, with states seeing widespread shutdowns.

Let's be real, looking at the evidence of our collective experience of the man, he would absolutely commit perjury if given the chance in this case. Martha Stewart was given the chance to commit perjury when she did this with 1 stock. We're only missing 1 step in this comparison.
