The Supreme Court is set to hear oral arguments next week in Kennedy v. Braidwood Management, Inc., a case that could strip away a critical piece of the Affordable Care Act, which mandates insurance companies cover preventive healthcare services at no out-of-pocket cost. glaad.org/releases/rep...

A good idea ready to implement! MA can do this too! @mikeconnollyma.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/erininth...

It’s surreal how fast the United States has fallen into a dictatorial regime. Checks and balances are gone, the president disappears innocent people into foreign prison camps, words get banned, and the Overton window shifts at light speed. I honestly wonder these days when they will come for me.

But I definitely stan this Doge!

The only Doge I’m in bed with!

Trump told everyone to buy stocks hours before walking back tariffs yesterday. And this is the result. There's a name for this: market manipulation. And it’s illegal. He knows exactly what he's doing and will continue to play with people's money until he has everyone bending the knee.

I think we’ll get a ban on adult trans healthcare under this UK government. I think it’ll probably happen piecemeal with bans on GPs supporting us and bans on private care, followed by a de facto ban on new patients in the NHS.

Was gonna write a joke about chatGPT PlaySkool, but Cass review has already killed and tormented countless people in Britain, no jokes are funny.

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die. Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.

Boat derangement syndrome

Trump signed another EO targeting the law firm Jenner and Block. Among the reasons cited, litigating cases defending trans people and immigrants. They are the firm litigating the ACLU challenge to the executive order banning gender affirming care for trans youth. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

Because of the pay gap, women have lost out on more than $60 trillion in wages since 1967. Yes, trillion. On an hourly basis, women were paid 18.0% less on average than men in 2024. We must ensure fair wages for all.

Don’t drink and text.

"dei medal" you might as well just put "n*gger medal" because that's what they mean to say

I have to say, I was disappointed with the Ides of March this year.

You have to Act

No amount of letter writing has persuaded my lawmakers, but one thing has slowed them down: Showing up in numbers that can’t be hidden or explained away. Marching in the streets. Testifying by the hundreds. Letting lawmakers know we see them and we know. open.substack.com/pub/jesspipe...

If you're 60, 69.1% of all job growth since your birth occurred under Democratic administrations. If you're 45, that number is 74.7%. If you're under 30, the number is 100%.

My two favorite Democrats right now in Congress. Representatives Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Jasmine Crockett are doing the heavy lifting for America. Much more than any male politicians seem to be. Step it up, Fellas. Give them a heart if you appreciate them as much as I do. &:^)

Gawd I’m tired

1. Today, the Iowa Legislature shamefully stripped transgender people from the State Civil Rights Act. It becomes the first state to ever strip any group from a civil rights act. There were powerful speeches, and huge protets. The latest from Mira Lazine. Subscribe to support our journalism.

NEW: Texas has introduced a bill to ban gender affirming care for all ages. www.transvitae.com/texas-bill-s...

Push Back

Just going to leave this here should it become useful to anyone…

Seems legit.... We don't want to be a nation of underachieving Americans.

Trump was willing to stand up there for a few minutes to pretend to care about black history, but hugging the guy was a deal breaker.
