#ProtectTransYouth 💟

🚨 US House of Representatives are voting on two anti-trans bills next week in an attempt to severely restrict gender affirming care for youth.

HR3492 would criminalize parents and providers charging them with felonies if they even attempt to access care.

Join us next week and fight back! Link ⬇️
Promotional flyer for Lawyers for Good Government. Text reads “Emergency Action Webinar: Protect Trans Youth from Federal Attacks — U.S. House Bill 3492,” with the date/time “Dec 16th, 1:00 PM EST” and a “Register now!” button. Bottom right lists speakers with headshots: Allison Chapman and Zane McNeill. Right side features a blue illustration combining a medical caduceus and balance scales on a light blue arch, with a navy-and-cream background.

Minutes ago today the Trump regime abruptly cancelled citizenship ceremonies for several immigrants in Boston.

THEY CANCELLED CITIZENSHIP CEREMONIES.

These immigrants followed every rule & did everything right—Trump banned them anyway. All are from Black & brown majority nations.

This Is Fascism.

As conditions in Gaza have continued to deteriorate, comparatively little attention has been paid to conditions in the occupied West Bank, where human rights groups are calling on the Israeli military to cease their attacks on Palestinian neighborhoods and refugee camps.

"Nearly two months into the ceasefire, #Gaza remains suspended in limbo. Waiting for aid. Waiting for news of prisoners. Waiting for the world to see that the genocide has not ended—it has only changed its form, becoming quieter: genocide without explosions or headlines." - Hassan Abo Qamar

I can't stress enough that you should take every opportunity that comes your way to support your local public libraries. Many of them are currently struggling and are being DEFUNDED. Local action matters on this front. Don't sit back until those libraries are gone before taking ACTION.

Drawing of the Day:
Mamdani and Sanders join striking Starbucks workers while the military and Trump’s team passes around the blame for war crimes
Monday December 1, 2025 World AIDs Day. (Sketch of Sanders and Mamdani holding strike signs with cups crossed out next to a red cup rebellion sign) Mayor Elect Mandani and Senator Bernie Sanders joined striking Starbuck workers today to bring attention to the unions demands for better scheduling and a living wage. Also today New York City's Department of Consumer and Worker Protection announced Starbucks will pay $35 million to workers along with a $3.4 million civil penalty, and to comply with the city's fair workweek law moving forward. Who gets blame for war crimes? While Trump has ordered bombing without congression authorization, Hegseth has said he wants max lethality in speeches to the military, they seem to be setting up Admiral Frank Bradley to take the fall for the double strike attack on Venezuelan boats. All while building up military presence in the region without congress.

One way to fight fascism is to not let it take away our sense of hope. Our sense of wholeness and our sense of humor.

Drawing of the Day: Italy makes laws against femicide, Campbell’s puts IT executive on leave after racists remarks released in court, and anti-vax doctor now in charge at the CDC making the agency less trustworthy as a source of accurate information
Tuesday November 25, 2025 Activists performed in Italy to recognize International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women, a day the UN General Assembly declared to raise awareness of gonder based violence. In parallel Italy's parliment approved a new law that makes femicide a crime punished with life in prison. Campbell’s put an IT chief on leave after a recording came to light in court of him calling the soup for poor people and making racist remarks. A former employee made a recording during a salary negotiation and when he reported the internal racism he was fired according to the lawsuit in which this recording was released. Anti-vax Louisiana surgeon general Dr. Ralph Abraham who ordered public health agencies to stop promoting mass vaccinations has been promoted to second in command at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Under his leadership he covered up a whoopin cough outbreak that killed babies.
