Laws are threats made by the dominant socioeconomic-ethnic group in a given nation. It’s just the promise of violence that’s enacted and the police are basically an occupying army. You know what I mean?

Political violence is abhorrent. I have not celebrated Kirk's death.

But Newsom calling for his followers to "continue Charlie Kirk's work," someone who praised stoning gay people as "god's perfect law," who called for men to "take care of" trans people like they did in the 50s and 60s, is not it.

This entire narrative pushed by the far right of an "epidemic of trans violence" is completely bullshit.

It's propaganda designed to stoke hatred and incite violence against trans people while building support for policies designed to eradicate our community.

No, there is not an 'epidemic' of shootings by trans people
There's still no evidence trans people commit more violence than others, experts say, despite online claims of an 'epidemic' of trans attacks.

Really not great that this ketamine addled piece of shit is using an entire social media network he bought to spread blatant lies and go after trans people because he couldn't accept his own trans daughter.

People need to understand just how openly genocidal the rhetoric on the far right is getting towards transgender people. They're openly talking about eradicating us and forcefully mass institutionalizing all trans people.

These are people with direct ties to the Trump administration.

I'm never get over the fact that this administration's war on trans people is being carried out with the pretext of "protecting women and girls" while the president is a pedophile rapist.

Our kids are struggling perhaps now more than ever, especially our LGBTQ kids. Ending investments for these critical services that provide help to kids who need it is cruel and dangerous.

Illinois has enshrined protections to meet this very moment.

In a time of increasing overreach and hateful rhetoric, it's more important than ever to reaffirm our commitment to the rights and dignity of the LGBTQ+ community.

1. I spend a lot of time talking about transgender youth healthcare with people who are uncertain about it.

A large number of my readers are politically moderate and trying to learn.

Today, I laid out my case against bans for my readers who fit that mold.

The Moderate Case Against Trans Youth Healthcare Bans
The disinformation on transgender youth healthcare is extreme, and many people hold weakly held opinions on that care. I talk about how to move the needle with those who are uncertain.

In case y'all missed it - Utah Republicans ordered a study on transgender healthcare, expecting it to come back unsupportive.

Instead, it found that trans youth care was safe and effective, and that transgender youth need it.

Whoops.

I neither want nor care for their apology. They will simply be footnotes in the story of trans liberation.

1. I am raising the alarm: If you are a transgender adult, your care is under threat by President Trump.

You should prepare for severe supply disruptions and policies that amount to potential bans.

The latest CMS letter indicates an expansion to target adults.

The Trump Administration Threat To Transgender Adult Care Is Growing At Lightning Speed
