The Massachusetts House has taken a major step towards banning trans athletes in sports.

It would be the first blue state to do so.

The amendment has been inserted into the state budget bill.

This is a five alarm fire for trans people in Massachusetts.

There is no "waiver" to the trans military ban.

The only waiver is for people who have NEVER attempted to transition, who have remained closeted, and will continue to remain closeted.

That's not a waiver for trans people in the military. It's a waiver for people who are suspected of being trans.

You've heard of girl math, but have you heard of billionaire math?

Trump's temporary tax handouts for the rich are expiring this year, and Republicans want working Americans to foot the bill.

They're claiming it'll cost you nothing, but in reality, these tax handouts cost trillions.

Donald Trump and Elon Musk going after the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau tells you everything you need to know about their priorities.

Instead of lowering prices on "day one" as Trump said, he's raising costs on families by letting Wall Street cheat them.

No, he doesn't. Randy E. Barnett and Ilan Wurman should be disbarred and removed from their positions for even saying this. There should be no mercy for people articulating this made up bullshit in the legal profession. They are enablers of fascism no different than the lawyers of the Nazi regime.

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too.

EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them.

Do you remember that time Pence tried to see Hamilton and the cast called him out.

Or when McConnell was chased out of a resraurant and not allowed a peaceful meal.

Or when Cruz abandoned Texas during the deep freeze and we shamed him into going home.

That.

Do that.
