It isn't that America lacks courage. It's that we’ve become so cut off from one another that many of us feel alone, which makes us feel afraid.
But when we are surrounded by courageous people, all of us become more courageous.
Courage is contagious.

The world is on fire and you're posting cat photos... please stop. I know, life goes on right? Maybe not.
If DJT and fElon Musk aren't stopped soon, life could literally end, for a lot of people!
So save your cute cat pics for a happier time... we simply cannot afford to be distracted right now.

I literally found out yesterday that my brother decided to get married in the States so we don't have to worry about going to Spain after all, but we'll be damn sure to get my fiancee an accurate passport anyway as soon as we can

BREAKING: A federal judge finds Trump’s order banning transgender people from getting accurate passports is likely unconstitutional.
The court ordered the State Department to allow correct gender markers for our clients as we continue to argue until this order is blocked for everyone.

Another huge ruling! The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals just DENIED the government's motion for a stay in the trans military ban case.
The government CANNOT enforce it's ban on transgender people in the military still.
BIG day for pro-transgender rulings.

Guys, this is David Brooks in the NY Times. If it's like this 90 days into this presidency with people who wouldn't be caught dead saying it last year, imagine it in two years. Something good is happening, we just have to lift everybody up so they can see it.

1. In a landmark ruling, a federal judge has blocked the passport ban for transgender Americans... government ban likely violates equal protection, and is made with animus.
Though the ruling only applies to plaintiffs, it is expected expand in coming weeks.

Judge Blocks Passport Ban For Plaintiffs, Citing Government Animus And Equal Protection
The federal judge ruled that transgender people's passport changes do not, as the Trump executive order stated, deprive the "dignity, safety, and well-being of women."

Susan Crawford wins the Wisconsin Supreme Court election, according to many election analysts.
This after Elon Musk and others poured millions into anti-transgender advertisements in the state.
The anti-trans panic failed in Wisconsin.
This is a major victory for LGBTQ+ people in the state.

"Progressives hijack Democratic party" What do they think the Democratic party is supposed to be?!
Fox News is OBSESSED with @katmabu.bsky.social She is running for Congress in IL 9th district. Jesse "The Snowflake" Watters thinks she was trying to get him fired. Fox criticizes other networks every single day and includes clips from MSNBC, CNN, etc. Criticism comes with the job.

And just like that, immediately after the DC circuit issued a complicated administrative stay that could bring back the trans military ban...
A federal judge in WA has just issued their own order blocking Trump from removing trans people from the military!
