2. The news out of Texas is that because Attorney General Ken Paxton does not believe court orders apply to the Texas Department of Public Safety, he is instructing them simply not to follow them.
2. I cover some of the biggest losses for DeSantis and Moms For Liberty associated candidates in my latest story, where anti-trans politics, book bans, and scaremongering over LGBTQ+ people played a huge role.
2. The ruling, which was handed down Monday Afternoon, is in response to New Hampshire HB 1205, a bill that bans transgender people from playing sports of their gender identity.
2. The article, published in City Journal by anti-trans activist Leor Sapir, used a few selectively picked quotes to claim that the ASPS has broken rank.
2. I have been in contact with ASPS members and their press contact, and have found out some VERY interesting things.
Vance is not the first Republican to have a history with drag. Tennessee's governor signed a drag ban. Pictures came out of him in drag... (left)
2. JD Vance, in his ABC interview, claimed that Walz allowed the state "kidnap kids" and "change their gender," after Trump claimed the same.
2. Trump repeatedly returned to targeting transgender people throughout the night, attacking trans people in sports, schools, gender affirming care, and even the cisgender Olympic athlete Imane Khelif.
2. The attack seems to be one of the first ones many major far-right sources are pouncing on. It stems from Walz signing an order that kept patient records private from out of state AGs who engage in political prosections.
2. Governor Walz has a long history of LGBTQ+ support and protection. Over the past few years, over a thousand anti-LGBTQ+ bills, mostly anti-trans ones, have been proposed.
2. The false headline is the latest in a series of attacks on Khelif and other athletes, claiming they are "men" or "transgender," and using their presence to attack trans people.
2. Up until now, major medical groups in the United Kingdom have stayed relatively quiet on the Cass Review as its findings have been used to support bans on trans care globally.
2. In a series of Threads posts, Wilson claimed that Musk's account of her life was "entirely fake," and that he was "never there."
2. The New York Times has heavily targeted trans people by publishing disinfo-laden pieces on transgender care in recent months.
2. Several conservative accounts such as Elon Musk, the RNC Research account, and Libs of TikTok posted a video of VP Harris stating her pronouns and describing her outfit to a table of people.
2. The post alleging that a trans woman was the actual shooter of Donald Trump went megaviral yesterday and today. Like many times before, it is of an unrelated transgender person. Read my full story here, where I interview her:
2. The move by O'Brien is being seen as a troublesome sign that one of the most influential labor union leaders may be willing to barter away LGBTQ+ workers rights to curry favor with the Republican party.
2. On the first day of the RNC, four speeches included anti-trans politics.
2. Yesterday, Senator Joe Manchin voted to ban federal funding for gender affirming surgeries in the Military and a TRICARE ban for trans youth care.
2. Pamela Paul and the NYT repeatedly publish misleading information about transgender people. This isn't Paul's first time doing so.
