This was entirely about purging a trans instructor from the school and they succeeded. It was aided by a lot of dumb liberals taking it at face value arguing the minutia of grading rubrics while ignoring the obvious bad faith efforts behind this.

1. The Trump administration last week made headlines with a new rule banning most gender affirming care for trans youth nationwide.

Now, the ACLU is pledging to sue if the rule goes into effect.

ACLU Pledges To Challenge Trump Admin In Court Over National Trans Youth Care Ban Rule
The rule must undergo a 60 day comment period, whereupon the government must generally respond before it may be put into effect.

One reason the NYT has burned its credibility with trans people is that they still cite the discredited Cass report in reporting on trans healthcare. Never the German, Utah, or other systematic reviews supporting care. They also never provide the political context behind restrictions in care.

Gonna pay just 5% of my taxes on time next year and tell the IRS "the initial deadline is being met."

If we're just making up numbers, why stop at just 3x the actual cost? Nevermind that these procedures are seldom performed on minors. But cis folks don't know anything about trans people, and they don't care to. Anything can sound true to an audience with near total ignorance of the subject matter.

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.

1. The federal government has just attempted to enact a national trans youth care ban.

A new HHS rule would shutter most gender-affirming care for trans youth nationwide.

It violates multiple laws and the constitution, and will likely go into effect in a few months.

Our latest story here:
Nationwide Trans Youth Care Ban Imminent As Trump Admin Announces "Nuclear Option" Federal Rule
The new federal rule formalizes previous threats to hospitals to pull Medicaid funding, and represents a significant legal stretch by this administration.

It's a whole of government effort to eradicate trans people from society. This is just the first step. They're coming for all of us.

If you think Trump's march to authoritarian power is unstoppable - or already a fait accompli - just note how panicked and weak he was tonight and he wheedled and whined about nothing is his fault.

That's not a man who thinks he's winning.

1. Earlier this year, Yale and CCMC capitulated to the Trump administration and ended care for trans youth.

Now, 10 families are suing them for violating state law.

Hospitals cannot be made to believe throwing trans people under the bus is risk free.
