Kind of wild how the take that some of Trump's supporters were "deplorable" was some huge scandal, but regularly screaming about "radical left scum" is just a thing he'll say with no media backlash.

Year 1 data on congestion pricing in Manhattan…

* Vehicle traffic: -11%
* Foot traffic: +3.4%
* Storefront vacancy: -0.9%
* Pollution: -22%
* Revenue for mass transit: $548M

So YES this has been a huge success.

FYI I’m goth now, I do goth stuff.

Read a poem. Cry on a bridge. Spend my life savings on a boot. Do Halloween in summer times. Drive right by a church without even saying “thank you god” Listen to 80s music and dance like slow motion bird

Goth stuff.

The HHS is run by a conspiracy theorist who cherry picks facts to fit his preferred conclusions. The news media has been very clear about that in every case except youth gender medicine.

Trans healthcare is a neglected front in RFK Jr's war on science.

Trans youth healthcare is based in decades of research and supported by every major medical organization in the US. Under RFK Jr, a handpicked panel produced a dodgy report claiming otherwise.

It's a clear example of Kennedy's war on science. So why aren't news organizations treating it that way?

A new federal rule would ban gender affirming care at virtually every hospital system in the country.

Now, an organization says they've prepared, have private clinics and financial aid ready for families that need them.

Every word of this about the Republican war on trans people

This is why you rarely see the anti trans side going after Hunter Schafer or Kim Petras. They went on puberty blockers and transitioned as teens. They're massively successful and living happy lives. They don't want to highlight that.
The reason they're so focused on trans teens is that people who transition younger typically blend into society better. To the extent that they're willing to tolerate our existence in society at all, they'd rather we be easily identified by our appearance/voices/etc.
Cis people really have no idea how it feels to watch a regime hold a press conference to admit, on camera, the pogrom against trans people they've been waging for 11 months is not only real, but they're going to double down on genocide and try to wipe out all the children first.

It's incredible to me how the mainstream press will be incredulous and skeptical when RFK Jr and other HHS officials push they're quackery around vaccines but suddenly become credulous when they go attack trans healthcare. Anti vax and anti trans beliefs are all the same quack pseudoscience.

Exactly. Every time they’re having a bad time like clockwork they find a new way to attack trans people and/or immigrants. Fucking monsters.
Notice how Trump and Republicans were having the worst couple weeks in the administration's history and they decided to pivot to hardcore attacking trans people?
