The FBI is now going after trans people and their healthcare. Today it's gender affirming care, tomorrow abortion. This is the authoritarian playbook on display.
A tweet from the official FBI Twitter account dated June 2, 2025, reads: "Help the FBI protect children. As the Attorney General has made clear, we will protect our children and hold accountable those who mutilate them under the guise of gender-affirming care. Report tips of any hospitals, clinics, or practitioners performing these surgical procedures on children at 1-800-CALL-FBI or tips.fbi.gov." The tweet has 106K views.

It should terrify everyone that a green card holder was black bagged and disappeared to Louisiana simply for having opinions this administration dislikes. They're building the prisons and camps to do it to citizens. The time to stand up to this is now.

Normalize muzzling your dog even if they are not a bite risk. It helps train reactive dogs and make them feel safe. Shout out to Big Snoof Dog Gear for the beautiful custom muzzle. #dogsofbluesky

NEW: Meta has quietly dismantled the system that prevented misinformation from spreading in the United States. Machine-learning classifiers that once identified viral hoaxes and limited their reach have now been switched off, Platformer has learned www.platformer.news/meta-ends-mi...
Behind the scenes, the company was also quietly dismantling a system to prevent the spread of misinformation. When the company announced on Jan. 7 that it would end its fact-checking partnerships, the company also instructed teams responsible for ranking content in the company’s apps to stop penalizing misinformation, according to sources and an internal document obtained by Platformer.

The result is that the sort of viral hoaxes that ran roughshod over the platform during the 2016 US presidential election — “Pope Francis endorses Trump,” Pizzagate, and all the rest — are now just as eligible for free amplification on Facebook, Instagram, and Threads as true stories.

A trans woman on tiktok posted about getting her gender marker changed on her Florida drivers license. Florida investigated her over it, canceled her license, and then leaked the story to libs of tiktok to announce it publicly to humiliate her.
The image shows a tweet by "Libs of TikTok" (@libsoftiktok), reporting on a trans activist who allegedly exploited a loophole in Florida law to change their gender marker on their driver's license. The tweet states that the Florida Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (FLHSMV) responded with a letter acknowledging the error and promising to address it. It also claims Florida law does not permit gender marker changes based on gender identity and alleges the activist may have lied about losing their license to facilitate the change. Below the tweet, two elements are visible: a video still of the activist smiling and holding their license, and a letter from the FLHSMV dated January 6, 2025.The image is a detailed letter from the Florida Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (FLHSMV), dated January 6, 2025, addressing the improper change of a driver's license gender marker from male to female. It explains that the change violated Florida law, which defines "sex" based on biological and genetic characteristics and prohibits alterations based on gender identity. The letter confirms the cancellation of the improperly issued license, issuing a corrected license instead. It also discusses potential misrepresentation of facts during the application process and warns of legal consequences for providing false information. The letter is signed by Dave Kerner, Executive Director.
