The whole trans girls in sports discussion is absolutely being used to propagandize people into being transphobic bellends. In K-12, the number of trans girls in sports is five. In college the number is fewer than ten, according to the NCAA President. You're being manipulated. Please stop.

Every anti-trans bill is state-sanctioned cruelty — backed by billionaires and bigots trying to stay in power. Trans people are not a threat. They’re a threat to no one. Let them live. Let them thrive.

Republicans want to kick 7.6M people off Medicaid to save $625B over 10 years. Universal healthcare with Medicare for All would guarantee everyone healthcare and save $650B every year. Republicans don’t care about healthcare or saving money — they want to harm people.

I want every gay person that doesn't realize that transgender rights and gay rights are interconnected to read this story. A far-right judge just erased your rights against harassment in the workplace along with ours. We are in this together and there's only one way out.

So is American major media just going to pretend that Donald Trump and his venal band of brigands didn't just spend the last five years of this space-time continuum daily accusing Joe Biden of taking bribes from a foreign country—something Trump just PUBLICLY did to the tune of $400 MILLION DOLLARS?

MAGA is cruelty disguised as strength, nationalism dressed up as patriotism. All to worship a con man who made people feel seen, not with truth, but with resentment. They chose grievance over grace and the rest of us are left trying to explain how it happened to a world that once believed in us.

1. The Supreme Court has allowed a military ban that calls transgender people inherently "dishonorable" to go into effect. This is a devastating ruling that opens the door for much worse. I detail what this means for trans servicemembers in my latest. Subscribe to support my journalism.

92 years ago today, the Nazis raided the Magnus Hirschfeld Institute for Sexuality, where the first study of trans people was conducted, and burned all of its contents. Fitting that today is also the day SCOTUS greenlights the project of the eradication of trans people from society in the US.

Our current healthcare system will cost $50T over the next 10 years. When Fox News and insurance lobbyist-funded politicians say that Medicare for All will cost $32T over 10 years, they're leaving out the part that it's an $18T savings and guarantees all of us high quality healthcare.
