On a recent podcast Gavin Newsom tells Shawn Ryan how the Trans sports issue opened the door for him to change his mind on GAC for Trans Youth.
As someone who adored him since 2004 and voted for him 5 times, I can't wait for him to leave office.
There is no way I will be voting for him a 6th time.

The NYT decided to kick trans people in the teeth the day after Skrmetti. They wrote a hit piece blaming trans people for their own oppression and attacked the people who have fought hardest to stop this effort to eradicate us.
They turned to Brianna Wu to further their narrative.

Whether we like it or not, the GOP drew a line in the sand. You're in or you're out. There is no center.

The level of surveillance and policing demanded by transphobia will always be more disruptive to your life than the rights and demands of trans people ourselves
This is going to be an absolute car crash, the Supreme Court verdict looks more absurd by the day

If Democrats are not fighting like hell to make headlines, disrupting the Trump administration and their narrative, then they need to get out of the way. Dems are failing us every second that Trump is in the news instead of them. #ShutHimUp

Met with new Ojai Police Chief Steve Jenkins and newly promoted VC Sheriff Commander Trina Newman.
As attacks on trans rights grow at the federal level, I'm focused on building local relationships to protect my community if things get worse. 🧵

I'd like to see a unified front from our progressive leaders, with a singular message. Actual strategy, hard boundaries, and what we are going to do - not just that we should be fired up.

Texas Republican Keithself storms out of the meeting he's supposed to be running because a Democrat asked him to treat his colleague Sarah McBride with respect. These people would not last one day as a trans person.

Anyone find it funny how when the UK releases the Cass review to ban trans care, we get everything ranging from New York Times push notifs to op-eds in every major US paper...
But when Germany, Switzerland, and Austria release pro-trans youth care guidelines, not a single article anywhere but mine?

1. Major news in transgender care.
Germany, Switzerland, and Austria have just released their trans youth care guidelines.
They strongly recommend trans youth care and slam the
Cass Review in England.
Europe is not "pulling back" on trans care.
