🚨🚨The White House is pissed off about this ad so you know what to do, share it everywhere! ICE is disappearing people just because of the color of their skin! No Warrant! No Due Process! This is not who we are as Americans! #MAGAKidnappers want an all white America, fuck that‼️

"If people can tolerate the cruelty done to transgender people, they can tolerate a wide range of cruelty." —Jennifer Levi

GLBTQ Legal Advocates & Defenders (GLAD Law) @gladlaw.bsky.social · May 8

What happened to Ansley Baker isn’t isolated—it’s the ripple effect of policies meant to dehumanize.

GLAD Law’s Jennifer Levi told the Boston Globe: "If people can tolerate the cruelty done to transgender people, they can tolerate a wide range of cruelty." www.bostonglobe.com/2025/05/08/m...

The profiling ‘nightmare’ at the Liberty Hotel shows the ripple effects of state-sponsored cruelty towards trans people - The Boston Globe

A woman who others decided looked insufficiently feminine was tossed out of a bathroom by a man. It's an example of an unavoidable outcome of the anti-trans crusade.

“[Today’s SCOTUS decision] is as clear as day soaked in animus”

Erin Reed @erininthemorning.com · May 6

In an absolutely devastating ruling, the Supreme Court has allowed the transgender military ban to go into effect.

This is shocking - the ban explicitly called transgender people dishonorable for being transgender. It is as clear as day soaked in animus.

“The thing you love is not freedom, it is privilege.”

Acyn @acyn.bsky.social · Apr 24

Walz: If you say you love freedom but you don't believe freedom is for everybody, then the thing you love is not freedom, it is privilege.

From @erininthemorning.com
“In 2020, there were just over 100 bills aimed at LGBTQ+ people. In 2025, that number [is] more than 850, the vast majority singling out transgender Americans…[this] is not a legislative trend—it’s a coordinated nationwide crusade.”

The association between Regime 2.0 and El Salvador to disappear people to CECOT is corrupt, unjust, and must end NOW.

Make no mistake. El Salvador’s CECOT is committing crimes against humanity. It is time to end this horror.

RAISE HELL!

Jennifer C @thejenniwren.teamlh.social · Apr 17

CECOT isn’t a prison—it’s a torture chamber built on mass incarceration and fear.

No trials. No sunlight. Just starvation, beatings, and silence. The EL Salvadoran govt says they’ll “never get out.”

This is a human rights nightmare.
Watch this video.
Share it.
And raise hell.

The camps are disturbing enough—and the fact that all the men in the room laughed about sending “homegrowns” there…even more so.

Jan Donley🏳️‍🌈 @donleyjan.bsky.social · Apr 15

Who will stand with @vanhollen.senate.gov and travel to El Salvador? Make the concentration camps visible. If Abrego Garcia can be taken, anyone can. www.wbaltv.com/article/chri...

Sen. Chris Van Hollen trying to bring Kilmar Abrego Garcia back to US

In a meeting at the White House on Monday, El Salvador President Neyib Bukele said he will not release Kilmar Abrego Garcia from prison.

“Trump was speaking quietly and privately to Bukele in the Oval Office away from reporters during that conversation, but was captured on a hot mic from the Salvadorian govt’s livestream: ‘Home-growns are next. The home-growns. You gotta build about 5 more places. It's not big enough.’” —From Meidas

Due process rights are fundamental to our nation–Trump taking them away from one person, is a threat to every one.
