Really drives home the point that the only purpose of Cass is that it’s a document to be pointed at by transphobic politicians and not a genuine piece of scientific research

1/🧵 The Cass Review final report was quietly amended in December 2024, just before the permanent ban was announced, and it seems to have gone unnoticed. While most of the changes were minor and clerical, two of them were significant. Both changes relate to informed consent.

Something the "so you think the law means anything now" doomers fail to grasp: the importance of buying time. Nobody, and I mean NOBODY, has infinite resources and infinite capacity for managing complexity.
Make your opponent work. Make their every decision complex and their every move costly.

BREAKING: President Trump has withdrawn the U.S. from the United Nations Human Rights Council.
This move will erode efforts to protect universal human rights and undermine the work of international bodies that hold all governments accountable.

they are mostly targeting black employees so this is quite literally just a repeat of woodrow wilson’s segregationist purge of the federal government
Federal health workers are expressing fear and alarm after a website called “DEI Watch List” published the photos, names and public information of a number of workers across health agencies, describing them as “targets.”

Do you know why a president would do all the most evil and heinous shit via Executive Order? Because his party can't easily make it law. And if they can't make it law, they can't make it last.
Don't let anyone make you feel like this is The End. Do not let them demoralize you. Live to see them die.

I mean this when I say Elon is the most dangerous man in the world. Truly supervillain level of danger.
So Musk is using a “budget cutting” committee as a front to gain access to classified information to gain a competitive advantage over his competitors, while the CCP is also one of his most important business partners. Worth every penny of that PAC money.
