🚨‼️As of yesterday KOSA is at 64 cosponsors with @vanhollen.senate.gov + @kim.senate.gov - who claim to support LGTBQ+ rights but are clearly okay with supporting legislation that’ll censor us off the internet- newly signed on.

Spoke to my source familiar with internal workings at Mastercard. The holiday call campaign re payment processor censorship is working, there is a lot of pressure being felt from your calls. This is resulting in increased response times at a core moment for Mastercard due to the holiday season

Important to note here that the FBI was able to access the chat because of an informant who was in the chat.
Your Signal chats are only secure if you know and trust the people in them.
But be careful not to spread this in a way that makes people think "Signal is not really encrypted." Unhelpful.

They're not just trying to drive trans people out of public life through bathroom bans & sports bans, they're also trying to make trans people illegal on the Internet.
And shoving trans people back in the closet is just the start, since they've also made it their mission to revoke trans passports.
