If a Black man said he'd done cocaine off toilet seats everyone would call him a thug and demand he spend the rest of his life in prison.
If a trans person said they'd done cocaine off toilet seats everyone would say this was proof trans people are unstable and need to be institutionalized.

This is what the Epstein class has pushed about trans people. Every accusation a confession.

Apparently being trans is "inherently sexual" and "what you do in your bedroom is your business, but you need to leave it there and not try to force the rest of us to normalize this" and I "shouldn't be around children" because I will "confuse them" by showing them "alternative lifestyles."
I love when an attorney says that I'm "trying to normalize a minority" and my client hiring me is "proof they're an unfit parent" because I'm trans.

Illinois is also one of 42 states that means tests and charges for the public defender in criminal cases, so I represent people who cannot afford or do not qualify for the public defender. (Those fees, by the way, go to the state's general fund, NOT the public defender's office.)
You Have the Right to an Attorney, but It Might Cost You
Approximately 40 states allow courts to charge for the use of a public defender, acting as an additional punishment for those who cannot afford to pay.

Yes citizens united was the right ruling. Corporations are a legal entity or in essence a legal person. That has been how we have viewed corporation since the legal definition of a corporation was etched into law.

I'm an out trans person who was born in Texas & lives in Washington State. I haven't transitioned legally or medically, but I'm in multiple databases as trans. Just requesting a birth certificate copy could endanger me if I lose the copies I already have.
Fuck the SAVE Act. It's racist, transphobic, xenophobic, and misogynist.
"Just get a birth certificate" is nonsense drivel when the federal government is accusing US citizens of having falsified birth certificates with no evidence besides the fact they're racialized.
