To fully address the root of the Gaza Holocaust we still see unfolding, as well as the root of so, so many horrors we've seen in the SWANA region and elsewhere, we must name and explain the original culprit that has plagued our region for literal centuries now.

Go worship a library instead. They actually deserve it, unlike MBAs.

This was the straw that broke the camel’s back for me. Going forward I’m an independent. I will only register with a party if I have to in order to vote in primaries.
Yesterday, 37 Democratic Senators voted to pass the anti-trans NDAA.
Those same Dems refused to allow Senator Baldwin to advance an amendment to remove anti-trans provisions from the bill.

This may be a controversial take but I think their refusal to endorse Harris due to Palestine was a smoke screen. But hey maybe two things can be true at once.

To set the stage for what's about to happen at SCOTUS at 10:00am, the case is called US v. Skrmetti. It involves a Tennessee law that bans gender affirming care to trans minors, mainly things like hormone blockers.

Junk science will play a large part in the Court's likely decision to allow the gender affirming care ban to stand. Because who cares what trans health care organizations asy about the necessity of puberty blockers to treat gender dysphoria in some cases.

This is devastating and cis people should watch this. And remember that, no matter the excuses cis lawmakers cite, this is the intention of anti-trans laws. And this is what Dem politicians are now leaning into. We have to stop this at all costs.

Dr. James Cantor is a professional witness in these cases. Also the man is a HACK. He does not work with adolescents and he has very few trans patients. This man is the opposite of an expert on gender affirming care.
