Chaya Raichik, Libs Of TikTok, instigated terrorism against LGBTQ+ people for 2 years.

Today during her hate-filled face reveal, she dropped that Gov DeSantis of FL offered her the Governors Mansion guesthouse.

In one video she refers to LGBTQ+ people and allies as cockroaches. This kind of hateful and dehumanizing language would be present throughout the interview, and this specific word is often mentioned in eliminationist/genocide stages.
She reveals she has been in contact with state legislators as well as Ron DeSantis himself. She also brags about how many teachers she has gotten fired and drag shows she has gotten cancelled. A reminder that she targeted Colorado clubs hours after the Club Q shooting.
In another clip, she claimed that transgender acceptance and allies are "poisonous" and Tucker Carlson then laments over the "destruction of the family line," which ties the issue to abortion as well as great replacement conspiracy.
In this clip, she states that LGBTQ+ people are "just plain evil" and that LGBTQ+ people and allies are "grooming" and "recruiting" kids. The former word is familiar but the latter word has a long history in anti-LGBQT+ bigotry, when in the 90s they targeted GSA clubs with that.
At the very end of the interview, she drops the bombshell that Governor Ron DeSantis offered her a free place to stay in the Governor's Mansion guesthouse, rewarding her for her anti-LGBTQ+ crusade that lead to violent threats.

The Republican party is embracing this bigotry.
You cannot divorce the Republican party from Libs of TikTok and anti-LGBTQ+ hate. They have accepted that instigating terrorism on the community is acceptable and even possibly worthwhile.

1. Nancy Mace, in an interview, made it clear that her opposition to Sarah McBride in Bathrooms was never about safety.

She stated, "It's offensive that Sarah McBride thinks [she's] my equal."

The audacity of a trans person being her equal.

2. Nancy mace's comments show how attacks on one trans congresswoman in a bathroom were never about her being dangerous, or unsafe. It's about raw hate.

Read my latest piece.

3. In a Newsmax Interview, Mace stated, “It is offensive that a man in a skirt could ever think [she’s] my equal, that his challenges are the same as mine. They’re not. [She’s] forcing [her] genitals into women’s restrooms, into dressing rooms, into locker rooms. It’s sick."

1. On day 1 of prefiling, Republicans have filed 32 anti-trans bills in the state of Texas.

The bills target transgender people with bounties, could shut down Pride parades, ban gender marker changes, and force mass-scale chromosome testing.

2. The latest suite of bills in Texas comes after the largest campaign targeting transgender people in history. Republicans, emboldened by the election results, could press forward with bills considered too extreme in previous years.

3. One bill, Hb1123, seemingly would require that every student athlete in the state of Texas get a chromosome test.

This could have disastrous consequences. Image

1. It was never about sports.

Some have argued that Democrats should give up on trans people in sports.

As a leading transgender journalist covering the issue for years, I can say that this is a strategy doomed to fail.

Here's why.

2. In the wake of Harris loss in the 2024 election, a debate has emerged over trans participation in sports... on whether or not Democrats should abandon "the sports issue."

This is deeply misguided. I explain why in my latest piece.

3. If you had a time machine in 2019 and traveled to 2024, the shift over trans rights in the US would be shocking. In the 2019, trans people could openly access care in all states.

Now... bounties in bathrooms, adults cut off from medical care, and drivers licenses pulled.

There is a push among some orgs, "moderate" legislators, and even trans people to "give up the sports issue" in hopes that will stop hate.

I have watched moderates try this in 23 state houses.

It doesn't work. There's no amount of give you can offer that stops them from taking.
Sports are the foot in the door, the asterisk they offer on our gender identity.

Once you give that up, they then sell you on adding that asterisk to kids...

To birth certificates, because you have to enforce the sports laws.

To bathrooms, which are like locker rooms right?
There are some who wish to do the wrong thing, discriminate against transgender people, for the right reason, stopping future discrimination.

But eventually, doing the wrong thing for the right reason just makes it easier to do the wrong thing.

Governor Andy Beshear, in a Trump +30 state, gives advice to Democrats: Do not throw LGBTQ+ people under the bus, it will not work.

His advice to dems: Lead on your values.

This man ran on a fully inclusive campaign in 2023 and won. He received the same kind of ads Harris did. Image
Just look at this quote here. This man is incredible with his support for trans and queer people. Image
This post is making all of the worst columnists who have been lining up op eds targeting trans people mad.

Some immediate steps I believe that all trans people should take:

- Get your passport. Today. It takes time to come in and this will likely be shut down under Trump.

- Update every ID your state allows you to.

- Make sure you have a supply of medication in case of disruption
- Stay in touch and ACTIVE with your local (LOCAL) LGBTQ+ org and mutual aid groups. This can help with supply disruptions.

- If you are considering moving to a new state, this is a good time to do so. Not everyone wants to or can move, so respect that.
- If you have a trans kid that is stealth, consider maintaining stealth to get around enforcement of anti-trans laws.

- Watch my risk map and newsletter, I'll be tracking the next wave of anti-trans legislation we are sure to see.
