Just absolutely disgusting regime. You all better put on your big kid pants in 2026 and spend the necessary time to vote against this crap. Inaction is complicity, whether you like that or not.
BREAKING: The House of Representatives passed a bill that would criminalize gender-affirming care for transgender youth under 18 and put doctors in prison for providing this care.
This bill is an unjustifiable threat to the well-being of trans youth and their families. The Senate must reject it.

Still not liveposting this hearing b/c it's dense, largely administrative issues, but this was worth highlighting:
District Judge Jeff Cummings just asked a govt atty if he can certify relevant immigration detainees are being held in "safe and sanitary" conditions.
"I cannot," a govt atty replied.
