Sean Duffy: "Dressing with respect -- whether it's a pair of jeans and a decent shirt, I would encourage people to maybe dress a little better which encourages us to maybe behave a little better. Let's try not to wear slippers and pajamas as we come to the airport."

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.

Transgender care saves lives.
Study In The Journal Of Pediatrics Finds Trans Youth Care Lowers Suicidality, Few Detransition

Does anyone have a list of the reporters that were in that gaggle where he said, "Quiet, Piggy"?

You know, the ones who refused to support their colleague?

I'd like to know who they are because they should be named and shamed.

Pedo Trump has had years to think of an explanation for why he’s all over the Epstein Files.
