between this and bans on gender affirming care, the message couldn't be clearer: they want trans people to die whether they've transitioned or not. death through neglect has always been america's favorite form of genocide. same thing we did with AIDS and continue to do with homelessness

Sotomayor's dissent is basically the plaintiff's brief. It hits all the notes.

So at least it will be preserved in the record that not *everybody* on SCOTUS was as bigot during the Fascist 20s.

Today’s ruling is a devastating loss for transgender people and our families, and an affront to the Constitution.

We'll continue to fight alongside trans youth in Tennessee and across the nation for the health care they deserve.

The NYT's anti-trans fear mongering was cited in a Supreme Court briefing that stripped away the rights of trans kids. They need to be fully blacklisted by queer people and their allies. Don't work for them. Don't use them for book press. Don't speak with them for stories. They made their bed.

why do you even bother posting if everything you say, every response you have to every single thing happening is "this is just a distraction from what's really important: a piece of legislation we don't even plan on blocking"

Today is a real bad day for trans folks. Lots of us are already struggling under the constant mental and emotional strain of being the target of international hate campaigns for years now, and it ain't getting easier

Support us, now more than ever. Emotionally, financially, politically. We need it

For generations, transgender people have faced efforts to erase us from public life — and every one of them has failed. This is no different.

We’ve always been here, and we’re not going anywhere, no matter what the courts say. Count on it.

The court got it wrong.

Denying transgender youth the health care they need solely because they’re trans is discriminatory, and we will keep fighting.

Me again. I’m writing this 12 hours ago, so I’m hoping we’ve had some support come in for this single lifeline for 6 families and a displacement camp. I’d like to think we can do better than going more than a day without support, i.e. food, for them.

NYC Comptroller Brad Lander was just arrested by Trump’s ICE agents because he asked to see a judicial warrant.

This is fascism and all New Yorkers must speak in one voice. Release him now.
Here's a longer video of Brad Lander's detention just now inside 26 Federal Plaza as he tried to walk a man out of immigration court, by masked federal agents.

Hi, this is Meg Barnette, Brad's wife.

While escorting a defendant out of immigration court at 26 Federal Plaza, Brad was taken by masked agents and detained by ICE.

This is still developing, and our team is monitoring the situation closely.

“You do not have the authority to arrest U.S. citizens,” Lander repeated, as the officers tightened handcuffs to his wrists.
