Trump’s DOJ Subpoenas Trans Care Records From 20 Hospitals For the safety of patients and doctors alike, health care institutions can—and must—fight back.

1. We have learned that 20 hospitals have received subpoenas from the department of justice seeking records on transgender patients.

In 2016, Ken Paxton had the audacity to sit at my table and break bread with my family knowing full well that my son is trans, then SIX YEARS LATER wrote an opinion stating that families like mine shouldn't exist. Within days, a CPS investigator was in our home threatening to remove our children.🧵

Today we say it loud and proud: HANDS OFF our rights, our healthcare, our trans siblings, and our democracy.

The LGBTQ+ community is here and fighting back.

Trump Amplifies “No LGBTQ” Symbol Using Nazi-Era Imagery in Military Ad Post Trump’s Truth Social post has a pink triangle overlayed with a prohibition symbol

The pink triangle, once used by Nazis to persecute gay men, was reclaimed in the 1970s as a symbol of LGBTQ+ resistance. From the AIDS crisis to today, it stands for resilience and pride. Once again, we face rising fascism—we must fight to protect our community.

DHS Now Allows for Surveillance based on Sexual Orientation or Gender Identity If you or your loved ones are part of the LGBTQ community, there are steps you should take to protect yourself.

My wife, Rep. Zooey Zephyr, is working her ass off in the Montana legislature, railing against bill after bill, day after day. This is just one of many speeches I've watched her give... but it's one of the most powerful.

This on a bill that criminalizes us for being trans.

Watch her speak.

Together, let's celebrate and honor the incredible women who inspire change, break barriers & lead with strength every day

Quite an exchange here between Judge Reyes and DOJ attorney on how "pronoun usage" affects military readiness.

Just CHUTKAN has *denied* state AGs' requset for a restraining order against Elon Musk and DOGE, saying the evidence of immediate and irreparable harm falls short, even if DOGE has caused uncertainty and alarm in the states. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

The NYT Editorial Board's Shameless Pro-Trans Stance | Katelyn Burns Get more from Katelyn Burns on Patreon

I got mad at the New York Times after their editorial board released an opinion piece condemning Trump's anti-trans EOs and I decided to write about how the paper of record laundered transphobia into the mainstream and paved the road for Trump's transphobia. www.patreon.com/posts/nyt-ed...

NYT Hypocrisy: Outlet Criticizes Trump's Attacks On Trans People That They Helped Usher In The New York Times Editorial Board today released an opinion piece calling Trump's attacks on transgender Americans "shameful." The paper has been influential in fueling those attacks.

1. Today, the New York Times Editorial Board published a piece titled "Trump's Shameful Campaign Against Transgender Americans."

I criticize the paper's attempt to wash away the paper's own culpability in ushering in an era of eradication-based policies.

This is my favorite picture of Stonewall.

They knew they were getting arrested just for being LGBTQ+.

Yet... they're still here, standing outside of the boarded up Stonewall Inn, smiling as the world was at a fever pitch of hatred against them.

I think about it a lot in moments like this.

This is the important part! If you submit your application for a gender marker change, you will not receive your passport or your supporting documents back.

Surprise Surprise... bathroom laws target cisgender women more often than trans ones, from a simple numbers game there are just so many more cisgender gender nonconforming people than there are trans people out there.

Trump fan Lauren Boebert left red-faced after 'accusing cis woman of being trans' Republican Lauren Boebert was left red-faced after reportedly accusing a woman in a bathroom of being Delaware Democrat Sarah McBride.

But they can always tell….

Yesterday, President Donald Trump launched a new assault on civil rights and efforts to combat workplace discrimination by signing an executive order rescinding Executive Order 11246, originally issued by President Lyndon B. Johnson. www.splcenter.org/presscenter/...

The folks obsessively posting about egg prices for the past few years have gone strangely quiet just as egg prices hit an all-time high.

NOW: More than 98% of #Costco shareholders have just rejected an anti-DEI measure

The attempt to force Costco to audit their #DEI work was by an anti-inclusion lobby group:

"The proponent's broader agenda is not reducing risk for the Company but abolition of diversity initiatives." - Costco Board

The past several days have proven without a shadow of a doubt that Project 2025 is real and underway.

And those who warned America about it were right.

The social security page has removed the instructions on how to change your gender marker at the SSA office: www.ssa.gov/personal-rec...

The intention of the executive actions on trans individuals is to terrorize. People need to realize that they are either standing with the oppressed or the oppresesor. To say that you are not political does not give you a pass. There is no middle ground. This is about moral character.

She's braver than essentially the entire Democratic Party and the entire media industry

Trump’s Gender Order Won't Affect Existing Passports — Unless They’re Renewed “They can still apply to renew their passport — they just have to use their God-given sex, which was decided at birth,” the White House press secretary told NOTUS.

Major news breaking from NOTUS on Trump’s trans passport ban:

It will not be retroactive.

Very glad I and others encouraged people to get their passports in the lead up to Trump’s inauguration.

Now hopefully this EO is defeated in court.

@natstonewalldems.bsky.social

1/ @sethmoulton.bsky.social’s comments about trans rights are disappointing/harmful. Suggesting “reasonable restrictions” only legitimizes the rhetoric Republicans use to dehumanize trans people. Protecting civil rights isn’t about compromise it’s about standing up for equality, unapologetically.

Trump's anti-trans executive order 'a direct assault on LGBTQ+ Americans' LGBTQ+ groups and charities have branded Donald Trump’s anti-trans executive order a “direct assault on LGBTQ+ Americans”.

An important article on the cruel Executive Order issued by the new administration today. @natstonewalldems.bsky.social
