I spoke to the mom of the 3-year-old soccer star who was left "thinking he did something wrong" after a league official called police "due to a disturbance between parents" The youth sports league said they launched a review and reached out to the family

These anti-trans Dems are saying "biological males" should be banned from girls sports because they know exactly how bad it sounds if they say "transgender girls" should be banned from girls sports. They're using "biological males" framing as a sort of self-justification and self-soothing.

only latin america carries the spirit of the republic
Brazil's new elected Head of the Women's Commission is a trans woman despite the extreme hardships trans women in brazil face while the US has an attempt to petition the FDA to put all trans women on a registry via estrogen bans. only latin america carries the spirit of the republic

Holy shit, it gets worse. A reader tells me that this is from Balint's questioning of Bondi over Epstein survivors. Certainly looks like it would match from this video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=3mmH...

Another evil layer to this ad from Josh Turek: When he turns to say "stop the nonsense from both extremes," he opens with a clip of Rep. Becca Balint, the first openly gay woman to represent Vermont in congress and one of the few openly gay members of congress.
Josh Turek of Iowa, Democrat, comes out with one of the worst anti-trans ads yet. Not only is it an anti-sports ad, it proposes a ban on federal funding for gender affirming care. That would hit all medicaid and medicare patients, and any ACA federally-subsidized plans as well. Horrific.

correct. you aren't supposed to hold your nose and Respectfully "vote blue no matter who" you're supposed to make your political candidates terrified and desperate that they may lose your vote Even If you're going to secretly vote for them anyway. psychological warfare. etc
I think people intuitively understand that democratic candidates tossing trans kids to the wolves is not only morally repugnant but also politically ineffective, otherwise they wouldn't freak out every time someone said they weren't voting for a democrat who did this

currently under a coup btw
Bolsonaro-friendly mayors appear to be sabotaging public transport on Election Day. Buses aren’t running in Lula-friendly areas, flights and ferries mysteriously canceled. Traffic lights have gone out and people’s power cut in Salvador, indigenous people’s travel restricted

Many people have had their voting places change to a WHOLE OTHER STATE, where they can't get to bc there's no flights Many also report having their name unduly marked as "not allowed to vote" as if they had legal hangups when they didn't... This is a straight up a thinly veiled hostile takeover

We are watching a coup d’état attempt unfold in real time in Brazil. I’m consumed by desperation.

democracy does not die from the top down, but rather the bottom up. it's not the institutions that become crudely crushed by an authoritarian boot, nor is it the pacification of an otherwise politically active population through mindless entertainment. it's the manipulation of the decision space.

There are some people who claim "oh, Dems in blue states will never shift towards enacting anti-trans policy" Meanwhile Colorado is literally enacting a medical detransition protocol for trans youth on medicaid.
Rather than cover the cost of gender affirming care for trans youth under medicaid, Colorado is voluntarily enacting the republican "taper and detransition" policy for youth on medicaid and dropping coverage. WTF.

"Trans people are a tiny group with no power" This isn't true, and I hope my trans readers can internalize this. You are more powerful than you think. Trans and gender expansive people are 2.34% of the US population in the latest survey. That is more than enough to swing a race.

I'm a disabled trans woman with cerebral palsy. I can't walk and can't work. We found me an apartment. I'm days away from getting out of this hotel, but if I can't cover move-in and the hotel bill lose it and end up on the street. Please help if you can givebutter.com/keep-a-disab...

I will never vote for an anti-transgender Democrat like Josh Turek and you should not either. I'll probably be writing my case to abstain from a handful of races like his on Monday. Josh Turek is showing the exact slippery slope I've called out, in real time.
