Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth are forcing all trans service members to resign. But the Air Force is also denying them their rightfully-earned retirement pay — solely based on their identity.

This discrimination is illegal, unacceptable, and unAmerican.
US Air Force to deny retirement pay to transgender service members being separated from the service
The U.S. Air Force has decided to deny early retirement options for transgender service members with 15 to 18 years of service.

Kim Davis—who illegally denied same-sex couples marriage licenses—asked SCOTUS to overturn marriage equality as she seeks to avoid paying damages to those whose rights she violated.

The Justices should not take this case, because marriage equality should NOT be up for debate.

We urge the Committee to reject these provisions attacking the LGBTQI+ community.

The Trump-Vance Administration is doing everything they can to undermine the LGBTQI+ community’s rights.
 
But, Executive Orders can't erase us. We’re still here.
 
We’ll keep fighting these harmful EOs and won’t stop until full equality for our community is enshrined into law.

Trump’s incompetent administration is back at it—this time with RFK Jr.’s full-blown conspiracy circus—gutting healthcare and endangering LGBTQ+ lives. Between Signal-Gate scandals and anti-science nonsense, it’s clear: the MAGA playbook is chaos, cruelty, and cluelessness. #StonewallDemocrats

Huge thank you to Senate Democrats for standing strong against discrimination and defeating the anti-transgender sports bill. Every athlete deserves fairness, dignity, and the right to compete without political attacks. This is a win for equality! #StonewallDemocrats

#DidThisToday Called my senator to say thank you for this. 🤣

And also, we expect you and support you in holding the line and fighting them every step. We're going to lose some, but we have to make them fight for every inch.

Senator Bennet just grilled Robert Kennedy Jr. on his long history of promoting dangerous conspiracy theories.

PinkNews [con't] -- Only @1% of the population is trans, and only about half of those are women, or about 1-in-200.

So the odds that that woman in the Ladies Room you think is "masculine-looking" is actually cisgender are about 199-to-1--why gender policing inevitably harms many cis women.

You really don't need to be religious to get this feeling of civic involvement. Whenever someone tells me they're lonely, I tell them to volunteer.

Help the homeless. Build queer community. Work with seniors. Do something to help people around you. Throw a party! Make friends. No church required.
Hard to deny that the collapse of civic life is connected to:
1) the collapse of religious involvement among younger generations
2) the total collapse of local and regional news organizations.

Everyone wants to solve the problem without reversing these two changes, but that's very hard.
This is a really great piece, as Ganz's work always is. I think the inconvenient thing is the civic associationism of American history was heavily driven by local religious congregations, supplemented in the 20th century by veterans groups like the VFW. It was these groups that included "normies."

Today's vote in Congress by 81 Democrats to target the trans kids of our military servicemembers should be a defining moment.

Mainline LGBT+ organizations will face a moment of truth when they have to now put public pressure on Dems.

People who say they've "had our backs" will have to show it.

Erin provides a link for finding your Rep so you can thank them for voting against this or let them know how disappointed you are they voted yes.

Caraveo & Crow (!?) both voted Yea.
1. Today, 81 Democrats voted for the NDAA, which pulls care from the trans kids of military service members, in what is seen as a betrayal of trans people by the Democratic party.

EITM has published a full, easy to read list of their names, and how to contact.

81 Democrats have voted for the NDAA bill, which has an anti-trans amendment pulling care from trans youth enrolled in TriCare, the first national anti-trans bill of the modern era.
