This is horrible but so are the many people standing around filming it instead of helping.

Thankfully I'll never know how that feels. I love my trans daughter unconditionally and it takes no effort. I couldn't be more proud of my smart, courageous, badass daughter.

They're going to go out and pick someone up who they "THINK" is a criminal.

What a courageous young lady, I hope she'll be ok, unfortunately this is the kind of protesting needed now.

a group of people are standing with their arms in the air and one of them has the word lay on his back Alt: a diverse group of people are standing with their arms in the air celebrating. Behind them is the trans pride flag.

Happy Trans Day of Visibility to all my trans and gender non-conforming friends and fam.

Trans is beautiful.
We have and will always exist.
Support trans folks today and every other day. πŸ³οΈβ€βš§οΈπŸ’–

Transgender people are beautiful and here to stay. Teachers, Firefighters, Politicians (the good ones), Scientists, Military leaders etc., because let's be clear, the bathroom perverts, pedophiles, sexual predators are the ones now in charge of our country.

It’s mind-blowing that, in the year of our Lord 2025, the president has declared that an entire cohort of people simply do not exist. The outsized and outstandingly cruel obsession with transgender Americans – a small, vulnerable minority already targeted with disproportionate violence – is blatant scapegoating, and a serious overreach on the part of the federal government. I can’t say it’s exactly consequential, since so few lives are materially affected (which is kind of my point) but it is a shameful mark on our national conscience.

Even one of the takes expressing revulsion at the treatment of trans people also says that the administration's policies aren't consequential because they affect a small population. Would anyone say the same about the explicit persecution of an ethnic or religious minority? This is extraordinary.

Her mom, Cheryl Salley Saltzman of Utah, missed a huge educational moment with her daughter. I wonder what would've happened if the mother & daughter took time to get to know her new roommate. Parents who enforce bigotry are not "brave".

I'm confused as to why nothing is being done about this. So many passports are being held.

Beautiful Brazil. πŸ³οΈβ€βš§οΈ Even if you don't personally know anyone who is transgender, take a moment to learn what is happening and show support. Everyone deserves to be seen, respected and valued. #resist #support
