The @heightenedscrutinydoc.com reminded me of how much the New York Times is responsible for the current climate trans people face.

Truly horrific policies and violence because the NYT wanted clicks.

John Fetterman might be one of the worst people in DC and thatโ€™s saying something.

I am relieved that gay marriage wasnโ€™t challenged and reminded of Sylvia Rivera making her speech at the Gay Liberation March on the first anniversary at Stonewall.

Do not forget that trans people are still being actively targeted. Do not let the continued violence against trans women go unchecked

Fire everybody.

If @aoc.bsky.social primaries Schumer tonight I will donate and organize for her. Itโ€™s time for Dem leadership to pay for absolute the absolute trash theyโ€™ve given us.

The Dems caving now and getting not getting really any concessions is a new level of absurdity and moral cowardice.

Fire the Dem leadership.

Every time I think about how bad our health system is and how much worse it can get under this cartoon administration I think back to the fact that we wouldโ€™ve had a public option and better healthcare deliveries if it wasnโ€™t for Joe Lieberman

May he forever rot

Every ICE agent should know comfortably that if thereโ€™s a hell they have a first class ticket.

And PS the cops standing idly by are cowards and worthless.

While out voting today in South Philadelphia I observed four PPA agents ticketing people pulling up to vote.

This is an issue. This is a poll tax in a majority Black and brown area.

Higher Education will give awards for overtly complex analysis and writing about marginalized communities they actively police, discipline, and actively not allow into their walls.

The hypocrisy is almost unreal.

Letโ€™s be clear, most EBT users are white. The reason heโ€™s specifically lying about โ€œweavesโ€ and weโ€™ve seen so many AI fakes of Black women ranting about food stamps is they need to make BW the face EBT because they know many Americans donโ€™t care if Black people suffer, and some actually wish for it.

This is heartless, abusive, and downright cruel.

To all the Democrats who sold out trans people to capitulate to this brand of bigoted politic - the children and families who will inevitably suffer because of this is on your hands.

I keep seeing people say, oh, trans people must take a hit for the greater good and, first of all, no, you don't get to discard someone else's rights and second, we know from past experience that marginalized communities like theirs are merely the first to be targeted. They'll come for you next.

Snapped some photos at the @rollingstone.com event last night with Hayley Williams, Jack Antonoff, Role Model, and the Marias!

Depending how long this goes, the impacts will be devastating. It is imperative that we continue to sounds every alarm and support the community in any way possible. Ask your local shops if they can set up systems of paying it forward and buy others food, donate to food banks, do something
