The Justice Department has sent subpoenas to the providers of gender affirming care to trans youth. My understanding is that these are under the False Claims Act and they are attempting to gain access to full medical records of trans patients similar to how Tennessee did so.

Just out! Our peer-reviewed critique of the Cass Review has been published by BMC Medical Research Methodology. Please read and share. We show that the Cass Review is fatally flawed and should not be the basis for policy or practice in transgender healthcare.

“I mean, laughing about the destruction of human lives is one thing, we all do that, but to celebrate the destruction of a stock? Ghoulish.”
Musk: I mean, have you Tim Walz, who is a huge jerk, running on stage with the Tesla stock price.. What an evil thing to do. What a creep, what a jerk. Like who derives joy from that?

NEW! The Trump administration appears to have sent a married father with NO CRIMINAL RECORD in any country to rot in a prison in El Salvador because of a PAPERWORK ERROR.
This man doesn’t even have tattoos! But his paperwork has two different peoples’ ID numbers listed and the wrong last name!

No, Senator Schumer. Precisely zero “little babies” had their “heads chopped off.” And there is no forensic (DNA, autopsy, etc.) or photographic/video evidence, nor any victims or legal complainants over 16 months after October 7 to prove a single woman was raped by Palestinian fighters that day.

As a VA, gamer, & close friend of devs, I’m sick of seeing workers treated as disposable. Colleagues have been suddenly fired, uncredited, & bonuses rescinded. Canceled games meant resume gaps. Workers’ passion & labor deserve respect and pay that reflect gaming’s record profits! uvw-cwa.org

The Trump administration just shut down a food safety committee to prevent bacteria in baby formula.
They are also threatening to fire employees who prevent deli meat from being infected with Listeria and applesauce from being laced with lead.

Not only are trans people not negatively impacting your lives, we're probably positively impacting your lives in lots of ways, there's so many wonderful trans creatives in this world making art, books, music, films, games, and putting our all into making the world a little nicer than it treats us.
A reminder that this entire Trans Panic thing is just another shitty step in a long history of fake panics completely invented by political hacks.
Trans people are very likely not affecting your lives at all and they certainly are not the cause of any problems on a national level. It's BULLSHIT.

Pamela Paul defended conversion therapists stabbing trans kids with needles, presented a retracted study as fact, and boosted ex-trans grifters as a reason to delay and deny medical care
And that was just one of her columns at the New York Times. Good riddance to a bad person!
