We know everyone is asking for your money this month, but here's a twist: We're NOT asking you to donate in December, we're asking you to spread the word.

Help the trans people and allies who don't know Assigned Media's reputation for excellence and originality in trans news find us!

This is a very troubling claim: someone who the Lemkin Institute - genocide experts - clearly believes is an expert in photo interpretation says there is evidence of an expanding mass grave near the CECOT prison in El Salvador… where the Trump regime sends detainees.

NEW: The Trump administration claims gutting federal agencies will save money, but cutting the IRS means the government collects less taxes.

“If you’re interested in the deficit and curbing it, why would you cut back on the revenue side?” one expert asks.

Striking how easily you can get millions of people to vote for a boot on their own face just by lying to them about the boot going on someone else's face.

Elon Musk recently posted on his site that another lawyer and I are “undermining civilization.” He goes on to ask if we suffered childhood trauma and concludes by suggesting we are suffering from “generational trauma.” This is my response. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/my-o...

Every web page ordered restored by the court that features anything related to gender now contains this notice.
A screenshot of an FDA document titled "FDA-2024-D-4245" issued by the Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research, Center for Devices and Radiological Health, and Center for Drug Evaluation and Research. The document includes a highlighted section stating that, per a court order, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) must restore a website by February 11, 2025. It claims that any information on the page promoting gender ideology is inaccurate and asserts that there are only two sexes, male and female. It further states that the Trump Administration rejects gender ideology and criticizes its impact on children and women. Below this, the document provides guidance on increasing female enrollment in clinical trials, analyzing sex-specific data, and ensuring generalizability in medical product studies.

Excerpt of an American Prospect article that states: I conclude that this is just what happens when a society allows its wealthiest members to accumulate nation-state-sized pots of resources. They go mad with power and the isolation of wealth-often developing extreme sensitivity to criticism, as they typically surround themselves with yes-men and toadies-and they react with howling outrage at the slightest threat to their power. Then with so much wealth, they can buy up a central artery of the global communication system and turn it into the Völkischer Beobachter. If Democrats ever manage to hold power again, confiscatory taxation on the ultra-rich should be viewed as a national-security priority. As FDR said in 1936: The rich "had begun to consider the government of the United States as a mere appendage to their own affairs. We know now that government by organized money is just as dangerous as government by organized mob." If anything, it's more true today than it was then.

To mark "Trump will declare a national emergency for mass deportations" day: here is the initial spreadsheet of our crowd-sourced *local* immigration advocacy/support organizations.

Please share widely, put to good use, and keep letting me know about more organizations folks can connect with.

Good morning, I'm trans.

I'm ignoring news about who thinks trans people deserve rights & bodily autonomy. I'm focusing on being out & supporting trans ppl in my communities.

Here's a list of resources, I forget who made it initially (sorry!) but it looks good.

Ohio just passed a transgender bathroom ban, SB 104. Please, fellow Ohioans, call Governor DeWine at 614-466-3555 and ask him to veto the bill.

I’m scared.
