Public life is a minefield.
I saw yesterday that some right-wing outlets were running stories about me, which I’m used to. But this time I’m going to say something about it, because these were framed to imply that I was aligned with their own transphobia. ⬇️

The "MOU" document Trump signed includes a promise of $300 billion to rebuild Iran. Is this "reparations?" Whose money?
Trump also promised to remove all sanctions and return all frozen funds to Iran.
No methods to verify Iran's "no nukes" promise are mentioned.
Sounds like a surrender to me.
