The legal definition of a woman in the UK now excludes trans people after a Supreme Court ruling defined sex as 'biological sex'
This is everything you need to know about the ruling 👇

One of the defining feelings in American life, for decades now, is elites doing plainly criminal shit and nothing at all happening as a result. It is deranging in a way that virtually nothing else is. Media fixates on perceived street lawlessness but shit like this matters much more in my opinion.

Unidentified men grabbing someone off the street and putting her in a car because she wrote an op-Ed. This as flatly authoritarian as anything we’ve seen in this country in a very long time.
Video of the international student at Tufts being arrested by "federal authorities" in Massachusetts has been released and it's terrifying.
They're not even uniformed officers. Just secret police thugs in hoodies and masks.

My band is considering a European tour next summer. I will likely not go, as I'm not at all sure I won't be detained at the border trying to come back into the country. Fun times for a trans woman.

MUST-WATCH: This is the arrest of Mahmoud Khalil from the perspective of his wife, who is 8 months pregnant.
This is federal agents in plain clothes dragging a man from his home as punishment for his speech.

Newsom’s capricious rhetoric attacking LGBTQ+ Californians will be met by massive protest and resistance from within his state, and activists must mobilize to end his political future.

You've read the stories about Gavin Newsom throwing transgender people under the bus in sports, prisons, and gender affirming care for trans youth.
Now watch the video and listen.
It's as bad as it sounds. He betrayed trans people and threw us under a bus driven by Charlie fucking Kirk.

Everywhere I’ve ever been, you could always just walk in whatever bathrooms there were. It’s not like they card at the door. The social stigma against being a creepy pest is all that ever stopped you, and that doesn’t change because trans people exist and need to use the bathroom sometimes.
Ex-Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel spouts transphobic talking points to Bill Maher.
"Look, in seventh grade, if I had known that I could have said the word ‘They’ and got in the girls bathroom, I would have done it."
