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.

I was just reading about workers who banded together when their coworker was unfairly fired and demanded their boss rehire her.
SAG-AFTRA has a new president who could lead the way on such collective action.

"Democrats don't want the Epstein files released because it would compromise Bill Clinton."
Yeah, no, I don't care who's in the files. If Bill Clinton is implicated, I want him held accountable. I'm not part of a cult. I don't give a shit if they're a Democrat.

Trump announces a mass deportation mission in a long post on Truth Social, and of course, just randomly throws trans people in there because why not?

ICE agents should not be allowed to cover their faces, and if they don’t have uniforms and badges I’m assuming they’re not agents.
