1. The far right is falsely spreading that a new study shows that surgery "doubles depression" for transgender people.
This is an egregious misreading of the study, which does not look at transgender people before and after surgery.

It’s been six days since Chief Justice Roberts’s “administrative” stay in the foreign aid cases. That almost certainly means (1) someone’s dissenting; (2) the Court is trying to reach a compromise; or (3) both. Hard to be sure which it is, but the continuing pause is itself producing plenty of harm.
