They've done such a good job dehumanising trans people, even many of our allies don't even realise they erase us as humans when they talk about us. We are just words on a page or a screen.

I don't know why people don't get it. Trans folk do not exist as a sacrificial lamb for your safety. The sheer amount of privilege to demand that Trans vote against themselves because "at least I will be ok" is wild. Field better candidates, or else if I'm not safe, you're not safe.

I really need people to understand that saying that insulting my oppressors and their co-conspirators ‘doesn’t help the cause’ Calling it ‘a different flavor of prejudice’ Telling me to nicely persuade people who are doing violence to me - You’re saying my dignity is contingent on your feelings.

#NoKings overlaps with Central Arkansas Pride again this year. William Mitchener of Newport (80 minutes from Little Rock) marched down Capitol Avenue with an American flag and Pride flag. He said he wants to scare off anyone who wants to harass Pride attendees. So far he hasn't found any harassers.

Billionaires get mad at things that can't be bought, like talent. Surely they should be able to write books and perform music and have mathematical insights just as well as the talented -- they're rich! If we let them dismiss and devalue real talent, we're going to pay a big price.

As Tracey has noted on social media, the anger directed toward him has also reached his siblings and his mother. Tracey said on X that his father, with whom he shares a first name, has received “literally thousands of nonstop crazed texts/calls/voicemails.”

On Thursday, October 8, Tracey began receiving D.M.s on X from a woman he didn’t know. She said her name was Lauren, and that she and her husband had purchased Tracey’s childhood home in New Jersey four years earlier, and that, as a result, they were now receiving threats. “Can you please post on here that you do not live at this address?” she wrote to Tracey. “Please, we are trying to protect our family and this is so out of hand we are horrified at the comments we are seeing.” She told him that they had started receiving packages delivered in his name.

“Please,” the woman wrote. “Help us.”

The Department of Homeland Security and Los Angeles US Attorney Bill Essayli took time out of the day to fact check me, and in so doing appear to suggest that their own lawsuit is wrong. I hope the California is paying attention; they are saying online what they weren’t willing to say in court.

@USAttyEssayli

That's not true. The 20k represents the number of noncitizens confirmed by a review of federal databases. This has been confirmed by @USCIS and @HSI_HQ. The data has been provided to California, and they are free to check the work. But that suggests California is actually interested in complying with federal election laws.Another QT of my post:

Incorrect, the numbers add up.
DHS's July figure, up to 190,832 records, was a PRELIMINARY universe of CA voter-registration records that matched records of aliens in DHS holdings that were pending manual review. The approximately 20,000 referenced in @TheJusticeDept's complaint are just the subset of records manually verified so far.
Preliminary screening and completed verification are not the same thing — there is zero discrepancy.Lawsuit screenshot: 45. As part of an investigation into unlawful voting, USCIS-after executing the processes just set forth-sent to HSI for further assessment a list of more than 20,000 individuals who USCIS believes are registered to vote in the federal election in California and are likely noncitizens.
46. HSI then performed its investigative process described above and reasonably believes that around 20,000 noncitizens are registered to vote in California. This means
that, consistent with state law, nearly 20,000 noncitizens in California have been sent a vote-by-mail ballot to participate in the federal election (or will receive one), with many addresses listed in Los Angeles County.Lawsuit screenshot: 60. To be sure, the United States actively investigates and prosecutes incidents of unlawful voting. But it is not practicable or feasible for the United States to investigate before the 2026 election concludes thousands, let alone tens of thousands, of individuals that two federal investigative offices identified on the California voter roster as likely being sent vote-by-mail ballots. California is thus knowingly imposing an obstacle on the United States' ability to enforce 18 U.S.C. § 611 by facilitating unlawful voting rather than working with the Federal Government to prevent it.

While Douglass disagreed with the attack on the federal arsenal (he fully supported freeing slaves and starting a hideout in Appalachia), he was close enough to Brown that he had to flee after the raid. With an arrest warrant out for him, Douglass crossed into Canada.
