BREAKING: Judge Benjamin Settle enjoins the ban on transgender servicemembers and Hegseth Policy that was due to go into effect tomorrow nationwide. No ban!

🚨CALLING ALL D.C. AREA VETERANS!!🚨 We can't be there for obvious reasons, but found this and wanted to share—we'll be there in spirit. If you're not in D.C. and want to take a stand, use the hashtag #visibleveterans and post on socials.

It is exceptionally disgraceful for any veterans in that chat to display such a lack of integrity and accountability.

They're just the fucking worst.

Pete Hegseth must resign or be fired immediately.

This is the wildest shit we've ever seen. Anyone with integrity would resign after a fuckup this huge, but good ole Pour Me Another Pete is blaming the journalist like the lazy, incompetent bully he is.

"Some in Congress..." wonder who they could possibly mean? 🧐🤔

They're terrorizing our federal employees in real ways and the impact is devastating for all of us. I spoke to a VA employee and FBI Agent about what they're experiencing and it will shock you. This is the most important thing I've written. Please read and share. open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

According to the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace Global Protest Tracker over 800 significant anti-government protests have erupted worldwide. More than 150 countries have experienced significant protest. 18% lasted for more than 3 months. (2017-5 March 2025)

Gender-affirming care for transgender veterans has ended. Gender-affirming for cisgender veterans continues. This is not equal care.

It's been a while since I boosted this post, so I'm doing it again. Click through for suicide prevention resources. Only the first page is the 988 network, & there are 3 more pages of specific resources for LGBTQ+, vets/SMs, etc. Share to save a life! You matter, the 🌎 is better with you in it.

The unremarkable white men who say they only care about merit erase all that doesn't align with their version of supremacy or reminds them of their own weakness. And they don't care what gets erased in the collateral damage. What mighty, great men they must be.

HUGE WIN FOR TRANS SERVICEMEMBERS!!

Rep. Seth Moulton: “Musk is killing Veterans.” Trump and Musk are firing Veterans, gutting VA care, and ripping away the benefits they earned. This isn’t belt-tightening—it’s a death sentence. And they know it. MORE: www.masslive.com/politics/202...

This is a coup! U.S. Institute for Peace called the DC police on the Musk team members in an effort to stop them from trespassing because the institute has control of its own building and the land it sits on. But instead, the DC police allowed them to enter and kicked out the institute’s officials.

Fortunately, it looks like the 442nd website has been put back up following public outcry: www.khon2.com/local-news/a... If we bring their actions into the light, they're forced to walk them back. Keep it up! Here's the article for those interested: www.army.mil/article/2837...

First, let us say that Doug Collins is a dick. The framing of this is that because the VA is cutting gender-affirming care for trans veterans, they'll be able to better fund care for paralyzed and amputee veterans. Let's break this down.

They are forcing clinicians to return to work in non-dedicated spaces to conduct veteran mental health appointments via telehealth in open workspaces. Clinicians asked about HIPAA. VA leadership solution? Noise-canceling headsets. They are dismantling VA.

To comply with the administration's "Defending Women" EO, VA is being forced to rescind VHA Directive 1341, which allowed trans, gender diverse, and intersex veterans to use facilities aligned with gender identity. #breakingnews

VA laptops are getting EnCase Enterprise Agent installed, and a pattern has begun to emerge—team members who have been vocal about issues, SecVA, treatment of employees, etc. have been the first to have this remote data collection software installed.

Y'all we're tired. They are just doing whatever the hell they want.
