Would the Trump administration be paying that settlement or the doctors? Because if the Trump administration is paying it I think a large settlement would be that bad, because it wouldn’t hurt the doctors.

Veiled in Secrecy, Anti-Trans Extremist Group Deceives Public β€” Assigned A new group reliant on hate and falsehood claims to represent β€œliberals” and β€œDemocrats.” Its own words put the lie to its claims.

NEW: They're an extremist anti-trans group. They're supported by right-wing stalwarts like FIRE and the National Review. And they claim to be Democrats.

Who are they really? @billiejsweeney.bsky.social investgates Democrats for an Informed Approach to Gender.

the phrase "left-of-center" here is no doubt the lie he tells himself but it's still a lie. this man is a right-wing anti-trans agitator and that any editor published this bullshit is so embarrassing for all involved.

Here's the legal director of ADF, the organization that wants to criminalize LGBTQ people and ban care, praising Jesse Singal's NYT op ed.

This is the goal of Singal, to spread uncertainty and undermine liberal support so that the far right can pass their anti-trans policies without resistance.

It's got to incense them that any time someone searches for Jesse Singal's name or article, they'll get my fact check just under it.

Thank you for helping me do what I do, folks.

American Psychological Association Reaffirms Support For Trans Youth Care, Pushes Back Against NYT A recent article from Jesse Singal in the New York Times seemed to indicate the organization might be quietly retreating from supporting trans youth care.

1. Major news on trans youth care. The American Psychological Association has reaffirmed its full support for its 2024 guidelines supporting trans youth car.e

It provided documentation showing Jesse Singal mischaracterized their position in the NYT.

I’m going to need Fox News to explain to me like I’m 5 what exactly each of these categories they threw on the screen is supposed to be referring to.

Like what is a β€œSex Change Prescription” if not Hormones and Puberty Blockers?

πŸ‘†This is still relevant btw since Singal’s article also mentions the AMA too

Fact Check: Jesse Singal Lies About Trans Care At The New York Times The New York Times spreads misinformation about transgender people yet again.

1. The New York Times, unsurprisingly, has released yet another hit piece on transgender people.

This time, it comes from Jesse Singal.

I fact check it in my latest piece.

End your NYT subscription, and put it towards people doing good work on the issue.

Why is UCSF changing its guidelines on gender affirming care?

Also why did they remove their guidance for children and now just link it to WPATH’s website even though all the others categories link to a guidance on UCSF’s website?

This defeats the whole point of puberty blockers. This study will be useless. It was already unethical to begin with but it should just be scrapped at this point.

I'm not a historian. But I can think of no precedent in modern Britain for what is being done to trans people. The media, public institutions, Government and (too often) the judiciary are combining to attack or exclude a marginalized group and its allies - with really no significant demurral.

Streeting's email to Labour MPs - kicks off with a flat lie.

Cass did not recommend a ban. In fact she recommended exactly the opposite to what Labour has done. (webarchive.nationalarchives.gov.uk/ukgwa/202503...)
