Dictators of all stripes hate solidarity. They’d prefer that we cower alone. They want us to feel powerless.
This is why I encourage you to participate in the peaceful demonstrations planned for today across America. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/april-5-hands-off-our-healthcare

NEW: Whitman Walker, a LGBTQ health center in Washington DC, has scrubbed its site of descriptions of gender affirming care services.
This is pure cowardice and stabbing the trans community in the back. While services are not affected, it will limit access to resources if patients can't find them.

What Elon is doing is straight up illegal. He has no authority to go through line by line and shut off funding to organizations he dislikes. He's intentionally trying to destroy civil society.

Gotta admit, I had intense fears of a second Trump administration but even I didn’t call Project 2025 UNDERSELLING his moves.

New politician test:
“Are trans rights human rights?”
If they answer ANYTHING other than an immediate YES, walk away while saying “I’m not voting for you.”

This is what happens to trans women placed in men's prisons. They are subjected to daily horrific rapes and used as human chattel to pacify aggressive and violent inmates. It's called v coding.

The State Department suspended all applications for passport gender changes in response to President Trump's executive order restricting transgender rights.
We know this has caused confusion. We're monitoring the situation closely — here are 2 important things to know.

Watch video for ICE (deportations) spottings in your cities. Not just big cities.

If you'd have told me in 2015 that ROLLING STONE would have the most brutally honest news coverage of the 2025 inauguration, I never would've believed you. But here we are.

TLDR: There is nothing enforceable for the immediate future. It will take months or years to implement this via rulemaking or bureaucratic changes which are then subject to legal challenge. While it's worrying, there's no immediate change yet for most trans people. Do not comply in advance.
Trump White House's first trans executive order is out. I'll be reading over it here and going through line by line to help you make sense of it.
