This is a hell of a crowd size for a protest at the Treasury Department.

People do not like Elon.
The Treasury Department right now. People are turning out against Musk and DOGE staging a takeover of the Treasury’s payment system. This crowd is big. The whole block is packed. “Lock him up,” everyone yells.

They just shut the door in our face at Tom Tillis's office in Greensboro! I guess they didn't want to help their constituents that don't agree with them.

No executive order can truly erase LGBTQIA+ people. We’ve always been here. 👇

The sweeping executive orders are supposed to make us feel hopeless. I refuse to let them.

KNOW YOUR RIGHTS: Let your children know that if ICE/Border Patrol comes to their schools, they do not have to answer questions - even if an adult tells them it's okay to talk.

This is my favorite picture of Stonewall.

They knew they were getting arrested just for being LGBTQ+.

Yet... they're still here, standing outside of the boarded up Stonewall Inn, smiling as the world was at a fever pitch of hatred against them.

I think about it a lot in moments like this.

The far-right are more concerned with targeting the trans community than they are actually delivering for the American people. They would rather divide us than help everyday people.

We need leaders like @delia.bsky.social who will fight to build a world that works for all of us.

These executive orders on banning federally funded entities from recognizing trans people or disallowing them from using the bathroom are not self-executing or immediately enforceable. They require formal rule making at a minimum. They are a scare tactic. Ignore and do not comply in advance.

1. Yesterday, Trump released a broad anti-trans executive order that could have extreme impacts on transgender people's lives if implemented.

There has been much discussion of what it actually does.

In my latest piece, I go line by line to explain it.

Remember you have more allies than enemies. It’s just that the enemies have the microphone and the ability to make terrible, but temporary changes to our lives. Remember that an executive order does not exist past the seated president.

Today is a heavy day for all of us, and the next 4 years will be difficult, to say the least. Know that we will get through this as a community. Do what you can to minimize the constant drum of confusion and chaos. No matter what happens we will be okay.
