Tremendously moving rally. Here a mother of a trans child shouts up at the Mount Sinai building. Folks handed out flyers saying: Email and call Mount Sinai to let them know the community rejects their bowing to Trump's DOJ. MSHPatientRelations@mountsinai.org 212-659-8990
Mother of a trans child shouts, pointing upward. She's holding a sign that says "PROTECT TRANS" in glitter ("YOUTH" is the next word, but not visible in this photo. Banner behind her says "RISE UP FOR TRANS YOUTH."

Four U.S. citizen children were detained in an ICE raid—zip-tied, separated, held for hours. Imagine if these were your precious little ones! Can you close your eyes to this depravity? Please don't. Remember If this could happen to these little kids, it can happen to yours. Speak out now!

An Andrew Tate and Charlie Kirk fan just murdered two teenage girls. In a livestream now taken down he claimed they had made fun of Charlie Kirk's death. This is the real world consequences of the hate and misogyny the right promotes while claiming the left is violent.

More than 450 lawsuits filed by people who say they were sexually assaulted as kids and teens in NYC juvenile detention centers have been tossed by a judge due to a 'flaw' in the City's law. Survivors are rallying right now at City Hall for the law to be fixed.

This is insane. If you wonder why some of us think the rule of law is about to fall, it's this. The U.S. Attorney for DC is not "President Trump's lawyer" and its job is not to "protect his leadership" nor prosecute people who "refuse to put America first".

Reminder to the NYT: there is no "transgender debate"- trans people are real and always have been- for an article about language choices I wish they would look at their own. They could reframe as How many human rights should the American people have?

The Justice Department’s decision to drop charges against Eric Adams only deepens public distrust in our institutions, because no one, not even a mayor, should be above the law. Trump may think this buys him access to terrorize our communities, but NYers always stand up for one another.
