Gender-affirming care saves lives
1. A landmark study was just published in The Journal of Pediatrics.
It found a 68% reduction in suicidality for trans youth getting HRT.
It also found only 7 of more than 400 stopped taking HRT... and of those that did, 4 still identified as gender-diverse.

There had better be trials. And not just for the low-level thugs carrying out these orders, but for everyone up the chain of command.
If we get past this, the solution isn’t to pretend it never happened and invite Stephen Miller to Harvard’s Institute of Politics.
It’s trials w real punishments.

A family friend was telling us about what her husband shared about his experience in Broadview before he was deported back to Mexico. She's been sharing to friends and family because she's just in disbelief & horror what her husband told her. She wasn't able to talk to him until he was in Mexico.

You don’t have to mourn war criminals. You don’t have to issue condolences to their families.
You don’t have to launder their legacies.
Save your grief for the innocents they killed, maimed or tortured without ever seeing justice served to their executioners.

the president has destroyed the east wing of the white house without so much as a word of input from anyone else to build a royal ballroom paid for with bribes
NEW: After The Washington Post reported Monday on the demolition of the "East Wing facade," a new picture obtained by Law Dork that was taken on Tuesday shows that a substantial portion of the entirety of the East Wing has been demolished.

There's literally no reason for Congress to exist if any random freak in the presidential orbit can nullify laws and seize federal funds. All of this is plainly illegal, but Mike Johnson leads the most corrupt Congress in US history (and by a wide margin.)

Was fun to see @hankgreen.bsky.social in Tuesday's Universal crossword, though I admit I wasn't quite sure whether the 4-letter word for "Author, activist and educational YouTuber Green" was HANK or JOHN.

It's time for your Friday reality check!
Trump is so weak and insecure, he had a childish tantrum about an escalator. He is in such severe cognitive decline, he can't pronounce "acetaminophen" or walk in a straight line.
He's a rapist, a felon, and a national disgrace.
Don't surrender in advance.

He raged at his minions that he needed something big to distract everyone, and he certainly got it.
The Epstein files must be so much worse than we can even imagine. Trump knows that even his cult won't stand for whatever evidence there is of his abuse and depredation.
Keep up the pressure.

The fact that -- before enactment of the "Big Beautiful Bill" --
House Republicans went up to a Democratic colleague to "confess" they were knowingly voting to do grave harm to the nation, and their own voters, exemplifies the rot at the heart of the Trumped GOP.

This is a damning anecdote from Rep Jim McGovern. He tells me that during debate over Trump's big budget bill, House Rs privately admitted to him that it would screw over their own constituents, yet they had to vote for it anyway.
Read all of it. He wrecks them:

I am honestly quite worried about Chicago, and begging the national press to report it as what it is: an invasion of a US city by the national guard of another state at the behest of a fascist president for purposes of terrorizing the people into submission.
