1. New Jersey is one of the last blue states to not have passed a transgender shield/sanctuary state law for trans youth.
Despite having a trifecta, Democratic leadership is refusing to put the bill up for a vote as the lameduck session comes to a close.

I was first unsettled, then increasingly furious at the New York Times' coverage of the death of Lia Smith. Here's a thread sharing some trily despicable choices made by @julietmacur.bsky.social in writing about this young woman's suicide.
The New York Times described a harrassment campaign that helped drive a young trans woman to suicide as "online criticisms."

2025 has been an incredibly hard year for trans people. And yet... the political project to erase us is failing. In spite of them having so many levers of power, many of us have continued to thrive, and new pathways open up every day to get around the attacks.

1. In exchange for her NDAA vote, MTG has announced that her national felony trans youth care ban will go to the floor December 17th.
It is not expected to pass into law due to the U.S. Senate.
Still, it will be a terrible historic moment for anti-trans bills.
