“If you’re still waiting to place your Girl Scout cookie order, there is still time … Dozens of trans scouts are continuing to work toward their goals, many of them hoping for just a few more orders to get there. Seek out a scout who has not yet seen as much support and order a box—or ten.”
“Several parents report that their scouts were shocked—and overjoyed—by the level of support they received. Transgender youth in the United States are under extraordinary pressure right now …”
“Again and again, families and scouts themselves say the cookie drive has become a rare source of joy, a reminder that people across the country see them, value them, and care about their lives.” www.erininthemorning.com/p/trans-girl...

I'm honestly kind of a slacker when it comes to politics, but I literally just called my reps for the first time in my adult life about ICE. It's a tiny thing but it's something anyone can do.

“If the U.S. has so far fallen short of forcing Israel to adhere to the full terms of the ceasefire, what’s the likelihood that Trump will compel Netanyahu to cede more of Gaza’s territory in the second part of the deal?”
The U.S. has announced ‘Phase 2’ of the Gaza ceasefire. Here’s why it doesn’t matter for Palestinians.

The rush to call Renee Good a terrorist, the rewriting of Jan 6th - it's all part of Trump's campaign to use violence to protect his power.
A world in which our leader gets to shoot or attack us if we oppose him - that's a dystopia we cannot permit.

Members of Congress have a clear, spelled out legal right under the existing DHS funding bill to be allowed into these facilities without this notice.
So if Congress is going to keep funding DHS, there must be meaningful restraints to rein in this brazen lawlessness.

ICE is making our communities more dangerous. They aren't targeting criminals; they are locking up peaceful immigrants who are here legally. They are in our cities to create confrontation and chaos - not to keep us safe.
