How To Support Your Trans Child, According to Experts and Trans Kids Themselves It’s a particularly challenging time to protect trans kids. Here are the best ways to help your child.

“Fight back against transphobia — whether legislation or within social circles — always. Never be a bystander. Your kid will watch you ignore or accept these things.” www.them.us/story/how-to...

It’s pretty much the same unless it’s really different.

Some people don’t believe in studies. They’re still arguing about how many teeth are in a horse’s mouth.

It’s like a Monty Python script.

As set forth in the attached Report, the Government of El Salvador responded to the UN inquiry opened by the four families asking about the disappearance of their family members: 1 The attached exhibit has redacted personal identifying information for the four men discussed in the WGEID report. Petitioners can file an unredacted version of the exhibit under seal at the Court's request, with the exception of one of the cases for particular privacy reasons related to that individual. 1 Case 1:25-cv-00766-JEB Document 160 Filed 07/07/25 Page 2 of 4 The Salvadoran State emphatically states that its authorities have not arrested, detained, or transferred the persons referred to in the communications of the Working Group. The actions of the State of El Salvador have been limited to the implementation of a bilateral cooperation mechanism with another State, through which it has facilitated the use of the Salvadoran prison infrastructure for the custody of persons detained within the scope of the justice system and law enforcement of that other State. In this context, the jurisdiction and legal responsibility for these persons lie exclusively with the competent foreign authorities, by virtue of international agreements signed and in accordance with the principles of sovereignty and international cooperation in criminal matters. In this regard, the actions attributable to the Salvadoran State are limited to its sovereignty and territorial jurisdiction, and therefore it cannot be held responsible for the failure to observe the principle of non-refoulement with respect to the persons mentioned. Ex. 1 at 6, 9 (emphasis added).

BREAKING: Documents filed in court today assert that officials from El Salvador told the United Nations that it "facilitated the use of the Salvadoran prison infrastructure" by the U.S. but that "the jurisdiction and legal responsibility for these persons lie exclusively with the" U.S.

“…the undying worm that gnaws him is the tormenting consideration that his excellent views and vituperations remain absolutely without result in the world…” Hegel on Thersites

A radical Christian just murdered the speaker of a state house but the real worry is the theocratic muslim who said the bus should be cheaper

Remember that our parents were WWII era. Many of us carry the trauma that was passed down to our generation and never acknowledged or processed.

Folks it doesn't even *look* like a parade is supposed to look

Like whoever planned this has never seen a parade

In case anyone missed it, the National Guard has arrived in San Antonio, Texas.

More military troops also arrived in McAllen, Texas.

This while ICE was raiding an elementary school.

A win! Judge blocks Trump’s firing of 3 Consumer Product Safety Commission members. The court ruled their removal was unlawful and ordered them reinstated.

Do fuzzy dogs count?

Double.

@gavinnewsom.bsky.social is calling out these guys on their BS and I hope he keeps it up.

Arguably 300,000 wholly preventable, gratuitous deaths already from gutting USAID.

If this ends up basically banning vaccines, how many thousands more preventable gratuitous deaths?

And almost all of children.

Death of children, simply everywhere.

The US now has no vaccine advisory committee, no CDC director, and an anti-vaxxer as Health Secretary.

"Most incarcerated people are willing to receive the ink, but only a select few are talented enough to sling the ink."

I am in downtown Los Angeles right now and it is completely surreal to hear that Trump is sending Marines here. We are listening to mariachi music. People have dogs. There are teenagers here. It is utterly and completely peaceful. Please tell your friends.

DAMN what a photo.

Linda Tirado, journalist,was shot in the eye with a ‘"nonlethal" foam plastic bullet’ while wearing protective goggles. Last thing I read, she had entered hospice care due to the severity of the injury which led to brain injury.

When Kittens Came to My Prison, I Had Not Petted One in 15 Years I had not touched a cat in 15 years when an orange kitten wandered over to sit with me in the grass.

"We watched with reverence from behind our stoic masks as the kittens opened their eyes and took their first steps and began to explore the world they now shared with us."

60% of American households can’t afford a minimal quality of life.

Meanwhile, the 19 richest households saw their wealth increase by $1 trillion in 2024 — the biggest one-year increase ever.

Our problem isn't a lack of resources.

Our problem is ever-expanding inequality.

NEW YORK TIMES (2020): U.S. DEATHS NEAR 100,000, AN INCALCULABLE LOSS

5 years ago: “An incalculable loss”

Today: Banning masks and restricting vaccine access

This is what an authoritarian regime would do. Hidden deep in Trump’s 1,100-page bill that passed the House today is a provision that would block federal courts from enforcing contempt charges against government officials who violate court orders.

Classic.

Cato has published my comprehensive review of the ~240 Venezuelans the US government renditioned 2 months ago to Salvador’s notorious prison. We identified FIFTY who came legally, never violated any immigration law, but are imprisoned at the US government’s request and at US taxpayer expense.

Hey Mr. Tapper, is there any timeline for reporting on Donald Trump's clear pattern of cognitive deterioration? I figured you'd be a great person to ask given that you've done so much research and reporting on this area of medicine.
