Thinking of everyone who treated Trump as a serious person over the past few years and how we probably could have ended his career ages ago. “When I saw the name change on the Kennedy Center website and then hours later on the building, I chose to cancel our concert” apnews.com/article/kenn...

"ICE officials are also investigating the couple for other crimes. They were found with a substantial amount of gold, frankincense, and myrrh. 'What are those luxury goods doing in their possession?' asked the ICE spokesman, taking a moment to adjust his mask."

With the Trump administration promising to continue these illegal boat strikes, transparency can't wait. Congress, the courts, and we the people have a responsibility to shine a light on these deadly strikes now and defend the principle that no one — not even the president — is above the law.

These people are sadistic sociopaths.

It's 2025, and we're sharing bootleg 60 Minutes segments broadcast in other countries because our own country is being run by fascists and their billionaire-owned state media helpers, just as the Founding Fathers intended, of course.

I hope to live to see the day when this gilded monstrosity is bulldozed, the debris dumped in a landfill in Maryland, the east wing restored, and the rose garden re-planted.

The 60 Minutes episode on CECOT that Bari Weiss tried to spike has leaked. youtu.be/lenFGZ5WUTA?...

I'm really happy with his today's newsletter turned out. Please check it out and subscribe.

It apparently was posted to a Canadian version of 60 Minutes by accident before it was pulled. Make sure to archive this and save a copy.

Therapists push back as the anti-trans group Therapy First has slipped its way into providing continuing education to medical professionals. @veraeikon.bsky.social provides original reporting for this story exclusively on Assigned Media.

Gender-affirming care helps trans kids live happy, healthy lives. Health care decisions belong to families and our doctors, not politicians.

Violent armed men concealing their true identities break into women’s bathrooms…finally, after all these years, a real-life bathroom safety threat. . .

Found the actual men in women's bathrooms assaulting women.

It's kind of funny that the last time CBS News/60 Minutes did something like this it became such a big scandal that they made a movie about it www.rottentomatoes.com/m/insider

22 Dec 2025 @rikiwilchins.bsky.social -- Announced the same month as the Cass Review in Apr 2024 and apparently commissioned in response to its concerns over adult gender care--David Levy's long-overdue report quietly dropped by NHSE Dec 18 (1/3)

It looks like the UK playbook because they're both using the same playbook. An actual conspiracy.

Turns out the 1st Amendment doesn't work when regime allied oligarchs purchase the media and censor unfavorable content willingly.

Hate to say it, but you should no longer trust anything from CBS News. I'm sure there are great reporters there trying to do honest work, but how can we know anymore? If they're willing to kill a Trump-critical 60 Minutes segment at the order of Bari Weiss, it's been over.

Bari Weiss censoring "60 Minutes", protecting Trump and El Salvador's dictator. But she's such an amateur that it's all exposed, she's caught, as reporter's harsh letter goes public. CBS is crashing. Free link. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/21/b...

i guess we should just all share the PBS FRONTLINE & PROPUBLICA documentary on CECOT youtu.be/Lku5h9xjrqc

Thank you to Fredricka Whitfield and @cnn.com for having me on today to talk about the recent political attacks on gender-affirming medical care for adolescents with gender dysphoria.

Will be on CNN with Fredricka Whitfield in about 15 mins to talk about the recent GOP actions against #trans youth and their families.

Every transgender person deserves to call their own body home. Chase Strangio, co-director of our LGBTQ and HIV rights project, talked with the New York Times about the fight for trans rights and his own lived experience.

20 Dec 2025 @rikiwilchins.bsky.social -- American Academy of Pediatrics which represents 67k pediatricians pushes back hard on against new Trump anti-care proposal: "misconstrues the current medical consensus...fails to reflect the realities of pediatric care...These rules help no one..."

As 2025 comes to an end, you decide the journalism you want to support! Here's Law Dork: www.lawdork.com

"My son turned 12 last month. He’s in seventh grade. And he’s trans. Yesterday, Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. stood at a microphone and essentially proposed a federal ban on … him." slate.com/life/2025/... #transgender #trans #LGBTQ #LGBTQIA

I don’t think the law passed by Congress said that DOJ has to release less than 1% of the materials by Dec 19.

They are incompetent at everything including coverup.

Don Jr. wants to know!

This is potentially a massive cover-up. Where is the corporate-owned legacy media that claims it exists to expose government corruption? www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Long-time trump supporter, Sean Strickland, has backed out of the felon's ultimate White Lawn fight, which he planned for his own birthday. Strickland said he wants "nothing to do with [a rapist in] the Epstein files." youtu.be/58PTACywC2Y?...

Goons wanted.

I honestly still can’t believe they did this it’s just photos on a desk! it’s not even in the same league as his fucking birthday note! removing it after the fact is the biggest possible “we are covering shit up” signal they could possibly send, couldn’t look guiltier if they tried

A new federal rule would ban gender affirming care at virtually every hospital system in the country. Now, an organization says they've prepared, have private clinics and financial aid ready for families that need them. Meet one group fighting back, the TYEP. Subscribe to support our journalism.

I respectfully disagree with the jury’s verdict in the Judge Hannah Dugan case. The trial evidence showed that Judge Dugan did not obstruct ICE agents from arresting an undocumented immigrant. Let’s see what happens on appeal. Meanwhile, our support for Judge Dugan continues.

Politicians have no business banning essential medical care — for trans youth or anyone else.

New data shows that 64 non-citizens were arrested by ICE while taking domestic flights at airports from January-October 2025 — nearly twice the number arrested during a similar period in 2024. Know your rights while you travel this holiday season.

The Department of Health and Human Services has proposed a new set of rules attempting to ban gender-affirming care for transgender youth nationwide. Take action and tell HHS: No bans on gender-affirming care.
