Federal Judge Vacates Kennedy Declaration, Permanently Blocks Trump's Trans Youth Care Hospital Threats • The judgment overturns the Kennedy Declaration which has been used to force 40 hospitals to drop trans youth care.

Rep. Delia Ramirez to DHS officials: "I have as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color. I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klanhood and the slave patrol. Those activities were criminal and so are yours."

This past Friday, “Protect Girls Sports” - an anti-trans coalition led by an SPLC-designated hate group named The California Family Council (CFC) - descended upon the Long Beach Marriott to yell at CIF, the governing body for school sports in CA. This is their “We Demand To Be Taken Seriously” pic

I have two transgender kids… and in my family… we do Christmas… a little differently.

How the nyt used the Cass report to restart its anti-trans propaganda campaign in the US: Coverage of the report was initially assigned to a nyt UK correspondent, usual practice for a UK report. The story being prepared cited critics who called Cass a shoddy, political document that defied science

Alejandra Caraballo@esqueer.net · 8mo ago

One reason the NYT has burned its credibility with trans people is that they still cite the discredited Cass report in reporting on trans healthcare. Never the German, Utah, or other systematic reviews supporting care. They also never provide the political context behind restrictions in care.

If you have any interest in trans rights, this is a pretty incredible documentary. It’s about Chase Strangio, the trans man who has been arguing before the Supreme Court. And about the ways the news media can misunderstand and misrepresent trans people. gathr.com/vod/9320a621...

90 FUCKING PERCENT i’d love for cis folks to remember what the nyt, atlantic, guardian, daily mail, times of london, ny post, cnn, wall street journal, & economist took from your transgender neighbors & loved ones before the next time you consider giving them money or listening to a word they say.

Amazing turnout all across the USA! Drop your city, state, and total turnout in the comments below! Make sure your city’s counted! We’ve got thousands of coalition members helping verify numbers, but we want to double-check everything!

I saw one little carrying a sign that said "I refuse to learn your hate" handwritten in crayons!!! She was shouting "we the people choose love."

To my fellow cishet dudes: when we are quiet about supporting the trans community, the only voices anyone hears are the Charlie Kirks of the world. Don't let accusations of being "performative" or "virtue signaling" shut you up - that's their whole point. Our voices are needed now more than ever.

This from Riley Gaines is why trans people freak out when Democrats try to carve out some compromise over sports. The politicians and activists attacking trans people are not interested in compromise! They're interested in our eradication from public life and are exploiting sports to that end

There is absolutely no excuse for any Democrat asked about trans athletes to ever respond with anything but “why are you wasting my time asking about FEWER THAN FIFTEEN CHILDREN AND YOUNG ADULTS IN THE ENTIRE COUNTRY WHO WANT TO PLAY GAMES WITH THEIR FRIENDS. What is wrong with you?”

1. Yesterday, the FTC held a panel with anti-trans activists meant to justify charging providers of gender affirming care with fraud. It is yet another avenue the Trump administration is trying to use to target trans care nationwide. The latest from S. Baum. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Trump’s FTC Lays the Groundwork to Charge GAC Providers with “Fraud”

Instead of working to protect Americans' privacy, the FTC is hosting what amounts to an anti-trans rally.

Instead of working to protect Americans' privacy, today the FTC is hosting what amounts to an anti-trans rally. Nobody is more obsessed with controlling the private decisions of the American people than Republicans.

Hi all—I'll be periodically live-posting today's FTC event on GAC's supposed "deceptive trade practices." Trump's anti-trans agenda is getting creative—cracking down on (or at least intimidating) GAC providers w/ misapplied consumer protection laws. The event will be...interesting. [A THREAD 🏳️‍⚧️🧵]

🧵: MAJOR CALL TO ACTION. We've been working with the student athlete in her question and her family for this call to action. We need enthusiastic cheering squads at Yorba Linda High School this Saturday, to drown out the hateful noise of well-organized transphobes.

CALL TO ACTION: 2 anti-trans bills are being debated in legislative committees on 04/01. AB89 bans trans girls from school sports. AB844 forces trans youth to use the school facilities that match their gender assigned at birth. Tell them: Vote NO! @gusdforall.bsky.social @socalextremismwatch.com

There's a transmasculine version of this. If someone assigned female can become a man, it means there's nothing so special or powerful about men. Each of us has the biological truth of equality between the sexes within us, as demonstrated by the ability of some to pass from one to the other.

Trump has long relied on threats, not lawful authority, to promote bigotry. His discriminatory effort to ban medical care for young trans people depends almost entirely on hospitals' voluntarily complying with his threats. Some are, but resistance is building. Article by Allison Chapman @alli.gay
