This is a good visual. Looks like in order to ensure we have proof that we mailed something on a specific day, we will have to stand in line at the post office and request a manual post mark.

Republicans have hit a new & disgusting low with Marjorie Taylor Greene's bill that would put parents & doctors in jail for providing gender affirming healthcare.

Trans kids deserve support, love, & care that affirms their needs, not cruel, despicable attacks on their existence.

Shockingly, this bill would have failed were it not for the 3 Democrat defections.
Just now, a national trans healthcare felony ban for youth has passed the US House, with 10 year prison terms.

3 Dems crossed party lines to vote to jail providers.

4 GOP crossed party lines to vote against.

It is not expected to pass the Senate, where Dems hold filibuster power.

Story to come.

The Supreme Court is poised to overturn 32 state bans on conversion therapy and explicitly legalize the abusive and torturous process.

They don't care how many LGBTQ people this traumatizes and kills.

BREAKING: Republicans just voted against a bill to fund government AND save your health care.

Help make sure Americans know Republicans are SO determined to let premiums DOUBLE that they would rather SHUTDOWN the government than work to avert this crisis.

Right-wing influencers use terms like “trans terrorism”, “trantifa” and “LGBTQ terrorists” especially after violent news. My LGBTQ family is cast as a threat. Repeat a lie long enough and it numbs the general public, it primes people for violence. First they came for us, next they come for you. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

The DOJ subpoenas to providers of gender affirming care wanted the therapy notes, social security numbers, and addresses of patients. This is an unprecedented and disgusting violation of medical privacy.

A government-sanctioned "truth arbiter" will soon arrive at CBS. Their role will be to ensure that journalists do not criticize this Administration or express views that conflict with its agenda.

This is a betrayal—not just of journalistic independence, but of the public trust. 🧵

For 18 years they served

Honorably and dutifully

Not for glory
Nor fame
Nor riches

Maybe they were patriots

Maybe this was their calling

Maybe they just sought a greater purpose

But now Trump and Pete Hegseth are throwing them away-like trash

And stealing their retirement benefits to boot
