“So you’re saying we should bully companies that use AI?”

“Yes absolutely.”

Pinhead's youtube would be wild.

Pinhead: "Hey guys! Welcome back to my channel. Got another unboxing video for you today. Say hi to Gary from Ohio!"

Gary: *muffled screaming*

Pinhead: "So anyway, im gonna deglove him now..."

What would the internet be like if classic horror characters became influencers? Like what would Jason Vorhees's tik tok look like?

Val and I checked repeatedly because we simply couldn't believe no national or local news organizations covered this letter from 18 AGs in support of trans youth care and against FTC overreach.

If you find any stories, let us know, but it seems to be our exclusive.

Its that time again folks

Trump to meet with top congressional leaders as a government shutdown looms The gathering at the White House on Monday comes after Trump canceled an earlier meeting with Democratic leaders.

Trump and Dems are officially meeting Monday.

This is after Trump cancelled his last meeting with Democrats because they were holding firm on immigrant and transgender protections.

The Republican budget has dozens of anti-LGBTQ+ riders.

Call your Dem senators, people, don't let them capitulate.

As someone incapable of holding a soldering iron, I do thoroughly enjoy watching this channel and seeing what cool projects he gets up to.

The anti-trans right heavily praised Gordon Guyatt as the “godfather” of evidence based medicine.

He worked for SEGM and was responsible for their GRADE reviews.

Now he disavows them, says evidence supports transgender youth care.

Great coverage from Henry carnell.

I haven’t seen a lot of cis people I usually see pushing for calls, etc. doing so about these rules provisions, which would devastate trans people nationally.

Calls need to be made to all electeds and a firm stance taken ASAP, with ten times the fervor of the Kimmel/D+ event

Hundreds of Alligator Alcatraz detainees drop off the grid after leaving site As of the end of August, the whereabouts of two-thirds of more than 1,800 men detained at Alligator Alcatraz during the month of July could not be determined by the Miami Herald.

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

9. If these anti-LGBTQ+ provisions make it through, they would lock some of the harshest restrictions on trans people into federal law and hand Trump a stronger platform to target trans rights nationwide. Only if Dems stand firm for their trans and queer constituents will this outcome be stopped.

37 Democratic Senators Voted To Pass Anti-Trans NDAA. Here Are Their Names. The vote came after most of the same Democrats refused to allow an amendment on the floor to remove the anti-trans provision in the military spending bill.

8. Last year, Dems passed an anti-trans provision in the NDAA with full control of the Senate, refusing Tammy Baldwin's vote to strip the anti-trans provisions.

Anti-Trans Amendments Added To "Must-Pass" Military Bill In House One congressman called them a blow in the “right-wing culture war to target the transgender community.”

7. The NDAA is one of the biggest fights this month - it includes a total ban on tricare coverage for gender affirming care at any age, and saw several Democrats cross party lines to pass it.

6. The Financial Services and General Government bill follows suit, barring coverage of transgender healthcare for federal employees and their families while undercutting D.C.’s protections for transgender care coverage.

5. The Commerce, Justice, and Science bill carries its own slate of riders: a ban on funding transgender surgeries in any federally owned, leased, or used facility, and a prison placement ban that would force transgender women into men’s jails.

docs.house.gov/meetings/AP/...

House HHS Appropriations Bill Would Devastate Trans Adult Healthcare Nationwide The bill would bar federal funding for any "social, psychological, behavioral, or medical intervention" to treat gender dysphoria.

4. In the Labor, Health and Human Services, and Education bill, one rider would ban “any federal funds” from supporting trans care at any age.

A strict reading would mean a medicaid/medicare ban.

A more expansive reading could target all hospitals providing care.

3. Though Trump frames the fight around “transgender surgeries” and sports, the provisions buried in the appropriations bills go far beyond that—and could devastate transgender people nationwide.

Avatar Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump After reviewing the details of the unserious and ridiculous demands being made by the Minority Radical Left Democrats in return for their Votes to keep our thriving Country open, I have decided that no meeting with their Congressional Leaders could possibly be productive. They are threatening to shut down the Government of the United States unless they can have over $1 Trillion Dollars in new spending to continue free healthcare for Illegal Aliens (A monumental cost!), force Taxpayers to fund Transgender surgery for minors, have dead people on the Medicaid roles, allow Illegal Alien Criminals to steal Billions of Dollars in American Taxpayer Benefits, try to force our Country to again open our Borders to Criminals and to the World, allow men to play in women’s sports, and essentially create Transgender operations for everybody. These Radical Left Views and Policies is what allowed me to win the Presidential Election, including all seven Swing States, and the Popular Vote, IN A HISTORIC LANDSLIDE. There are consequences to losing Elections but, based on their letter to me, the Democrats haven’t figured that out yet. They are trying to eliminate the popular $50 Billion Dollar Rural and Vulnerable Hospital Fund, which was passed with only Republican Votes, and proudly signed into Law by ME. The Democrats in Congress seem to have totally lost their way. They obviously have no idea what it means to put America First or to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! All Congressional Democrats want to do is enact Radical Left Policies that nobody voted for — High Taxes, Open Borders, No Consequences for Violent Criminals, Men in Women’s Sports, Taxpayer funded “TRANSGENDER” surgery, and much more. Few people voted for what they represent, which would lead to the destruction of America. Instead, people voted for COMMON SENSE, and that’s what the Republicans and your President, “DONALD J. TRUMP,” stand for. I look forward to meeting with them if they…

2. On Tuesday morning, Trump took to Truth Social with a rambling post announcing he would refuse to negotiate unless Democrats “agree to the principles in this letter.” Those “principles” included a slate of anti-trans measures—from bans on transgender healthcare to nationwide sports restrictions.

Trump Digs In On Anti-Trans Provisions In Shutdown Fight Message The provisions are becoming a key sticking point in the ongoing fight to keep the government open.

1. Trump has dug in on anti-trans provisions in the shutdown fight this morning, cancelling a meeting with Dems unless they cave on trans people.

His post to Truth Social is a clear indication that Republicans are making targeting trans people a priority.
