Congratulations, those of you who decided to platform fringe voices and create a climate of fear and hate out of ignorance because those voices insisted a non-problem was a problem. They're now on an HHS stage trying to ruin children's lives. You will live with the harm you have done forever.

cis people on the skyline are genuinely more distressed by karoline leavitt’s lip fillers than the fact that congress just said, “what we should do is put any doctor or pharmacist in prison who gives lifesaving medical care to this specific kind of child we find gross.”
Bluesky tonight is neatly divided between trans people and family members appropriately angry and freaking out and everyone else who has barely noticed.

Shockingly, this bill would have failed were it not for the 3 Democrat defections.
Just now, a national trans healthcare felony ban for youth has passed the US House, with 10 year prison terms.
3 Dems crossed party lines to vote to jail providers.
4 GOP crossed party lines to vote against.
It is not expected to pass the Senate, where Dems hold filibuster power.
Story to come.

Had the three Dems who voted for this held the line and voted no, they could have blocked it.

9 Dec 2025 @rikiwilchins.bsky.social -- Rep Senators offer up poison-pill Obamacare plan to Dems that replaces subsidies with HSAs (this won't work) while banning GAC coverage for all ages, including thru Medicaid. Presumably not a serious proposal but just to score points on the trans issue.
Democrats Must Reject The Premise Of Trans Healthcare Bans In Republican Healthcare Offer
Republicans' new healthcare bill would bar transgender healthcare as an essential health benefit, bar trans medicaid coverage, and would bar HSAs from considering trans healthcare medically necessary.

If you think that members of marginalized communities should be grateful that you’re not a terrible human being, that means that you think you’re intrinsically worth more than they are.
That means you think they are lesser than you.
And that’s awful.

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera
In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.
As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

short 🧵 on what autism and transgender pseudoscience & disinformation have in common:
so Tylenol supposedly causes autism, but so does MMR, despite autism predating either of them – how could this be? negativity bias! this is why when ppl consider something to be "bad" they can invent hundreds of causes w/little evidence & ppl will believe it...

The same bs they're spewing about autism and tylenol is the same bs they're spewing about trans people's healthcare. It's the exact same playbook and the fact that the media can see through one and not the other is a damning indictment of how complicit they are in the attack on trans lives.
