I can't watch this and say nothing. The arrest of people lawfully here because of things they have said is nothing short of creating a new class of political prisoners.
Then sweeping them away to Louisiana to evade the rule of law is atrocious.
We cannot stay silent.

Today I lost an NIH grant training clinicians to do research about intimate partner violence with perinatal women.
More women are murdered in the perinatal period than die of obstetric complications.
I didn't just lose a grant. We lost an entire cohort of people building careers to prevent that.

Something special is happening, folks. Now is the time to organize in every dimension possible and get to work.

People have said my criticism of McBride is too harsh. Wait till I make a video about this pickme bullshit.
The people who went with “Sarah McBride will actively collaborate with the destruction of transgender rights” turned out to be right.
Incredible that this is our first representation in congress.

Just so you know, there's NO WAY this can be enforced without affecting literally everyone. This is yesterday another example of fascism.
We reported on this a few days ago, but I want to point out this headline because this is where we are at.

The bill would allow anyone to sue someone who affirms a young person's transition, and it specifically mentions hairstyles.

Trans genocide is global, and these policies not only also affect intersex people (never mentioned), but will set polices that police everyone's body, and everybody's civil liberties. We're essentially becoming North Korea, unironically.
It's no longer safe for trans tourists or immigrants to come to the United States.

As is always the truth, one person in chains means nobody is free.
Once you establish that people can be punished because the administration doesn't like their speech, expanding the bounds of who can be treated that way becomes inevitable.
