1. In a new leaked memo, Pam Bondi is directing the DOJ to go after trans care providers under "anti-FGM" laws. She also has directed the investigation of HRT manufacturers. She calls transgender people "infectious." The latest from S. Baum. Subscribe to support our journalism.

I’m a trans woman with a 9 year old son. I do all of these things and more while also having a high stress job. The audacity of this gives away the game that they don’t even think we are human.

Exactly. And if he had committed a thousand crimes, it wouldn’t be a heavy lift to prove just one. But DHS and the White House offer nothing but conclusory bullshit.

1. Planned Parenthood of Arizona has "paused" gender affirming care for transgender adults. It appears to be a case of massive over compliance. This kind of move could threaten the majority of trans people's medication in the US. The latest from S. Baum. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Primary Democrats Jared Golden, Marie Gluesenkamp Perez, Henry Cuellar, and Ed Case. Enough. Remember Democratic leadership went all in with Cuellar.

I can’t compete with this

"I don't want a Disney vacation of our history! I don't a whitewashed history, I don't want a homogenized history. Tell me the wretched truth about America, because that speaks to our greatness" -- 20 hours into his speech, Cory Booker is spitting absolute 🔥

Booker: "I confess that I have been imperfect. I confess that I've been inadequate to the moment. I've confess that the Democratic Party has made terrible mistakes that gave a lane to this demagogue. I confess we all must look in the mirror and say 'we will do better.'"

This is the most malignant narcissistic sociopathic retweet in the history of Twitter Imagine retweeting a meme like this about yourself The man is profoundly unwell and well over half the country fully understands that

Things the world needs more of: empathy, integrity, equity Things the world needs less of: hate, dishonesty, discrimination ...(oh, and anything fucking crypto)

One positive of the douchebaggery of the AOpenAI with their Ghibli theft is that many people are learning who Miyazaki is and are being exposed to Studio Ghibli. In the end, hard to overestimate how powerful that is. Oh, and fuck Sam Altman, fuck OpenAI, and fuck training AI on stolen material. 🖕

The people that voted for him are going to HELL.

NEW: DOGE is trying to gift itself a building worth $500 million, court filings show. It's the culmination of a dramatic battle between DOGE and the United States Institute of Peace, a Congressionally funded think tank. www.wired.com/story/doge-t...

I LOVE REGULATION. I LOVE THE PEACE OF MIND KNOWING THAT A RESTAURANT IS SAFE TO EAT AND A PRODUCT WONT KILL ME. I WANT MORE REGULATION. I DONT WANT CORPORATIONS TO BREATHE WITHOUT GOVERNMENT PERMISSION.

This means I now have negative 4 security clearances

"We have seen this kind of thing before. Just not from America. I want to be deadly serious about this: We are now the bad guys."

openai’s new ghibli “generator” is explicitly an intentional attempt at humiliation of a prominent objector openai is culturally fascist as well as functionally fascist it’s not an accident

Tonight an unbelievable **34,000 people** gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back. This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008. Also bigger than the 2024 DNC. And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too).

AOC: If you are an LGBTQ kid or family, we cannot throw you under the bus in order to win an election. In this house, we stand together

They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.

PLEASE SHARE U.S. Representative Jamie Raskin is encouraging all U.S. citizens to join him this week in filing formal demands for access to their personal data obtained by the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) and Elon Musk. jamieraskin.com/doge-privacy...

1. Major news in transgender care. Germany, Switzerland, and Austria have just released their trans youth care guidelines. They strongly recommend trans youth care and slam the Cass Review in England. Europe is not "pulling back" on trans care. Subscribe to support our journalism.

The FAA approved another launch before the last crash investigation was completed — and it ended in another disaster. Why is SpaceX getting a free pass from DOGE cuts? 🤔

After years of alarm over unelected bureaucrats pulling the strings, what better example can you find than this moment the US government is in? DOGE is the thing it claims to fear the most. Elon Musk is the problem he purportedly wants to solve. Doge *is* the Deep State. @brbarrett.bsky.social:

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell. This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

National Nuclear Security Administration officials are attempting to notify some employees who had been let go that they are now due to be reinstated — but they're struggling to find them because they don't have their new contact information. nbcnews.to/4104StF

Not all trump voters are child molesters but all child molesters are trump voters.

Look, he's THRILLED to sell out service member's trans family members! All cap. Fucking crazy.

I was the Senior Technical Advisor for the January 6th Select Committee. I don’t want a pardon I want a bar fight.

The leaked prerender scene featuring a trans story line that Disney/Pixar removed from their new show Win or Lose. (sped up a bit to meet the upload limit)

What a perfect wedding, my love. Every second of that day is etched into my heart forever. And every vow I made—from promising you a gentle love to promising to be a good mom to our son—will be at the center of all I do. As I said at the closing of my vows, I am your I am yours I am yours.

Tried my best. Sorry I couldn’t pull it through everyone - we live to fight another day. ♥️

Please circulate. While trans folks are rushing to update documents before the inauguration, Massachusetts is suddenly requiring the signature of two parents for minors despite the law not requiring this and the form having one parent signature line. blog.erikashira.com/2024/12/mass...

Hey corporate media, Thou shalt not spend thousands of hours on one CEO’s shooting and only one hour on a classroom of children.
