Christian group ‘deceived’ supreme court about LGBTQ+ research, cited scholars say
Exclusive: Experts say Alliance Defending Freedom, arguing to revive conversion therapy, ‘profoundly misrepresented’ their work in case threatening trans and queer youth

Trump’s ICE Has Started Targeting Activists, Not Just Immigrants
ICE demanded Meta hand over personal information attached to Instagram accounts that track immigration raids.
“As predicted by many activists and civil rights advocates, ICE is increasingly becoming a force tasked with enforcing the political will of the administration and straying further and further from its original mission,” EFF’s @MGuariglia.bsky.social told @Truthout.org.
