People keep talking about how just it is that Hyde-Smith blocked Colom’s judicial appointment and now he put her out of a job. But no one should forget why she blocked his appointment. He stood his ground on gender-affirming care and he won MISSISSIPPI.

Also appoints the AG which is huge. Alaska AG was heavily involved in a lot of attacks on gender affirming care. They're coplaintiffs on the lawsuit against WPATH.

Shumate was responsible for implementing all the DOJ subpoenas to gender affirming care providers. The rats are fleeing the sinking ship.

finally coupling gender affirming care and abortion. this is the way!

FAO people who still believe many people regret transitioning and use that as a reason to restrict affirming care. It’s just not true
Nearly 97 percent of transgender people who received hormone therapy as teenagers did not regret it five years later, a study found.

Though some patients did regret medically transitioning, those rates are relatively low compared to other medical interventions.
Most transgender people have no regrets years after hormone therapy, study says
The study, conducted by researchers in Texas, is the largest yet to examine satisfaction and regret in people who transitioned before they reached adulthood.

The sole Republican dissenter that was against the ban on gender affirming care
Wow: BLaw Texas reporter Ryan Autullo reports that Republican Texas Supreme Court Justice Debra Lehrmann, now sitting on a 5-4 court, is weighing the timing of her retirement. If she retires before the end of term, Hinojosa would get to appoint her successor, likely giving Dems a SCOTX majority.
Texas GOP Justice Weighs Timing of Exit With Slim Court Margin
Texas Supreme Court Justice Debra Lehrmann (R) said she hasn’t ruled out retiring before her term expires, following a blue wave in the state that cut the GOP majority on the court to one seat.

Oh, and lest I forget: he led the charge to end gender affirming care in hospitals and public health.

Monstrous man.

I'm constantly seeing this exact dynamic around gender-affirming care for trans kids too, and I'll never stop being mad about it.
Something you notice about reporting on e-bikes is how rarely the voices of kids and teens are actually included. It's a whole lot of adults and leaders yelling about those kids and teens.
