It's never about the science. It's always about having a legal basis for your fear and hatred of other people.
My husband has taught human reproduction and development to the Cambridge medics for over three decades. When people start banging on about "only two biological sexes" he starts with "which sex: genetic, hormonal, or gonadal"?
Biological sex is not binary. www.scientificamerican.com/article/sex-...

Sex Redefined: The Idea of 2 Sexes Is Overly Simplistic
Biologists now think there is a larger spectrum than just binary female and male

Donald Trump doesn’t hire on merit he hires only based on loyalty. He does not give a fuck if you suck at your job. All he cares about his having people loyal to him and it puts our nation in grave danger

First, it was bathrooms, then sports, and now they’re getting to what they really wanted — the complete erasure of the trans community.
Also, if you think this is going to stop at trans people, you are deeply mistaken.

I need y'all to sit with this headline and understand what is being done to our community. They're trying to criminalize our very existence.
This is a campaign of eradication.

Doge is auditing NASA today.
This is absurd. The owner of Space X should not be auditing NASA.
It’s a massive conflict of interest.

As a software engineer I can tell you: Musk's coders are _not_ improving systems at various govt agencies. Any such claims are lies to hide the real intent.
The best engineers take weeks even to understand complex systems; months to plan how to upgrade them; and years to do so without disruption.

I’m going to put my rich guy hat on and say I hope that Mexico and Canada issue equal, retaliatory tariffs and stick to them for an extended period.
I apologize to all the people it will cost money and the businesses it will hurt.
But it’s the only way for tariffs to be seen for what they are

It would be fantastic if major federal institutions would acknowledge that the executive branch cannot legally unilaterally cancel or redistribute congressionally appropriated funding on ideological grounds and thus they have no legal obligation to comply with such directives
Trump funding freeze a blatant violation of Constitution, federal law: Legal experts
The Constitution, federal law and court decisions make it clear: President Donald Trump's order to pause federal funding is against the law, legal experts tell ABC News.

Liberals claim that DEI played no factor in the crash at Reagan National Airport. Then how come the Army aircraft was a Black Hawk helicopter and not a White Hawk helicopter?

Don’t go along with illegal orders. Don’t preemptively do things like taking pronouns out of your email signature and disbanding everything that might be construed as DEI. Make them stop you
The most frustrating thing is people are just going along with illegal orders. Don't DO that! Like the person who was fired without whom there is no quorum and whose term doesn't end til '28 should not be considered fired and everybody should stand by her.

Trump is currently attending a National Prayer Service at the Washington National Cathedral presided by Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde. I interviewed Bishop Budde, she told me, "Trump seeks to dismantle everything I stand for.” Then I learned of the unlikely Trump resistance within the cathedral.
My latest, a tough and important article to write. @rollingstone.com On Carter's death and the Trump resistance. “Racist, sexist, misogynistic, transphobic ideology. It’s violent, and we have to name the violence. We have to stop the violence. That’s our task.”
