Kristi Noem is guilty of crimes against humanity and needs to face justice.
📌 She made the final call to defy a court order to halt deportation flights, sending people into the hellscape of CECOT, a place the UN has compared to a torture chamber.
Prosecute her and everyone involved.

New Justice Department filings reveal that it was Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem who chose to defy a federal court order by transferring more than 100 Venezuelan men into Salvadoran custody to be imprisoned.

Going to be honest: this past week and a half or so has not been good for my mental health and I really wish more of my friends would check in/invite me to stuff/help me take my mind off of all of this. It sucks a lot.
Just released memorandum from OPM:
Federal facilities will now have a bathroom ban for transgender people.
It will go into effect on the 31st.
It also has a slew of effects and puts into place the 1st anti-trans EO policies for every agency.
This will have a ton of impacts very quickly.

So, President Trump just turned from expressing condolences to the families of the DC air crash, to trying to take a victory lap around President Obama and slamming DEI efforts at the FAA.
No linkage/proximate cause identified, but let’s spew as much hate and disinformation as we can.

I’m a 51 y/o combat vet, retired/disabled Army officer who served over 20 years on active duty. I love this country, but because I’m a trans woman, this country doesn’t love me.

These are very trying days for those in the Transgender community... especially youth. The Executive Director of Whitman-Walker Institute, Kellan Baker, had some great thoughts to share with SALON Mag.

What will Trump do to trans health?
Many are speeding up gender-affirming care appointments out of fear that access could soon be stripped away

I was working in the Pentagon on January 6th 2021 and it is surreal to me that our incoming President calls that a "day of love", and we are considering pardoning people who assaulted police officers and tried to disrupt our democratic process. I am sad and scared for what happens next.
Today is January 6th and no one is watching the Capitol be plundered, feces being smeared on the walls, and police officers being stabbed with American flags.
Why? Because one side believes in democracy no matter what, and the other side only believes in it only when they win.
