I find it impossible to grieve the death of a principal enabler and collaborator with American FASCISM.

Living as trans is now effectively a criminal offence in the US and UK. That’s the cumulative effect of all the bans. Are you going to do anything about the situation in the UK @andyburnham.bsky.social ? Telling the trans community to accept it and move on isn’t good enough.

JK Rowling signed the Harper's Letter just so you know how full of shit everyone who signed it was.

It's also available here. Please share and spread this report. Trans folks in the UK can't for fear of lawsuits by gender critical groups. drive.google.com/file/d/1UggI...

Amnesty International put out a major report documenting the influence of UK based anti trans gender critical organizations and their funding. Within hours, GC groups threatened defamation lawsuits and Amnesty was forced to pull it down. Proving the point they're anti rights. Anyways, here it is.

Hey Chicago! An ICE contractor is trying to buy our parking meters — and City Council decides whether that happens THIS WEEK. We've got time to stop this, but we need as many people as possible to fight back: tinyurl.com/icepark

News you might, unfortunately, be able to use

The orange felon blames mail-in voting, immigrants and felons for destroying America, yet he marries immigrants, he votes by mail and he’s a convicted felon. Funny how that bullshit hypocrisy works.

It has been more than three weeks since Mitch McConnell was hospitalized after paramedics responded to a cardiac arrest call at his home. Since then, the 84-year-old senator has not been seen or heard from publicly... youtu.be/eXZqEnGILpo?...

Polls consistently show that people across the political spectrum want to build a working immigration system that protects our immigrant neighbors and loved ones. It's time for Congress to heed our calls and stop ICE from terrorizing our communities.

What if I told you one woman, with little accountability, is wearing the name of the United Nations to launder false anti-trans forum posts into global legal fights, including the US Supreme Court? Our reporter S. Baum investigates Reem Alsalem in our collaboration piece with The Nation.

ICE claims that Araujo drove into one of their SUVs with his van and then tried to run over an agent. There were no marks on the van and KHOU11's Jeremy Rogalski found surveillance footage showing ICE chasing Araujo and cutting him off. Renee Good all over again.

One of goals is to make this data as accessible as possible. There are download links for all of the data behind it in both spreadsheet and csv forms. You can also fork the google drive file if you want. I hope this helps people and researchers.

Graham Platner’s history of sexual assault proves he does not belong in the US Senate. He belongs on the Supreme Court. by Susan Collins

While Texans celebrated July 4, Senate candidate Ken Paxton was seen walking the streets of London with his alleged mistress. Just like Graham Platner, he should never become a U.S. senator.

If Earth becomes a paradise, they can’t sell it to you in the afterlife.

Why does it seem like all the real voter fraud is coming from Republicans?

This is Missouri, and Christian Supremacist hate group ADF, and it is barbaric, illegal, and a crime against humanity.

Definitely does need reposting. Seeing how a cis woman ‘gets’ how this is at the core of our existence, fills me with joy. THIS is how you do dignity and respect for trans people.

It's a complete bastardization of the judicial system and is completely untenable long term. The Northern District of Texas cannot establish a judicial dictatorship like this over the rest of the country.

This Supreme Court ruling does NOT require any state or school to exclude you from sports, and it does not change your right to attend school, access school facilities, and learn free from bullying. This fight is far from over. 🏳️‍⚧️

A little promotion update today!

President Trump has relentlessly attempted to push transgender people out of public life by attacking our fundamental rights and freedoms — but we won't let him get away with it. Tell our leaders in Congress to pass a bill that will defend trans people and our families.

This is the real damage.

I'm so thankful to Becky and her mom for their trust, generosity, and strength in front of the Supreme Court. No matter what the Court says, Becky is a hero for standing up for herself and trans girls like her. Doing what's right, even when the odds are against you, is the definition of courage.

If we ever make it out of this alive, it will be because of people like Becky and Lindsay. Here because of people like Gavin. These are the people who deserve our uncompromising support. Make sure they know they have our love, and prepare now to do everything in your power to make their fight count.

well, HERE's a cool thing I just stumbled on-- nb the link to the primary source reader at the top, that's also awesomely organized and has some fabulous stuff.

Jeffco Schools in Colorado is begging the state AG and Governor to help after Trump threatens their funding with anti-trans demands. It is uncertain of the governor or AG will step in and provide that help. Our latest story from writer S. Baum. www.erininthemorning.com/p/we-cannot-...

Last day for public comment tomorrow, Jun 29! Not only is the administration proposing to end nondiscrimination policies, it’s proposing to mandate that discrimination in order to access HUD funding. Leave a comment below.

In the "What to the Slave Is the Fourth of July?" speech abolitionist Frederick Douglass argued that the day reveals the gross injustice, hypocrisy, and cruelty of the United States. I'm not feeling this 4th either. My latest at TNR. newrepublic.com/article/2122...
