The White House’s blatant disregard of U.S. District Judge James Boasberg's order is “sufficient to conclude” that there is probable cause for criminal contempt, Boasberg wrote. He added that none of the government’s explanations to date have been satisfactory.

So I'm flying domestically tomorrow for the first time since coming out, and I’m nervous AF. Gender markers on my IDs are all updated with no name change yet, I’m dreading going through security while being simultaneously euphoric about just being me.
