Do note that the NYT push alert tonight is not six *new* hospitals ending gender-affirming medical care for minors. It is the cumulative six since mid-May, the most recent two of which DOJ announced — and I covered at Law Dork — last Friday.

As Trump loses ground and lashes out, some remain willing to capitulate when it comes to anti-trans hate
More alarming settlements from medical providers in states that have laws aimed at stopping anti-trans discrimination. On Friday, it was NYU Langone and UPMC.

If DOJ can extract $8.5m from Langone under bogus False Claims Act assertions relating to gender affirming care then I expect the next Dem admin to extract nothing less than $850 billion from GOP slush fund vendors like Palantir and SpaceX.

Macklemore just announced he’s donating the $1 million he made from Sheeran’s tour to 6 organizations to support Palestinians and he’s asking Robert Kraft to match it. This is just the first part announcing it.
With everything that has happened over the last 48 hours, I want to bring the conversation back to where it belongs: to the Palestinian people who are still being killed, still living under military occupation, and still fighting for their freedom.
I will be donating the entire $1 million of my net earnings from Ed Sheeran's Loop Tour to six organizations working directly to support the Palestinian people. And I invite Robert Kraft to match my donation. Whatever we disagree about, perhaps we can agree on this: Palestinian lives are worth protecting. A Palestinian life is no less valuable than any other life on this earth.

The NYPD has long been on notice that its Community Response Teams are responsible for disturbing levels of unlawful policing. As those warnings have mounted, the NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch has continued to assign cops with troubling histories to the units. hellgatenyc.com/jessica-tisc...
A Hell Gate analysis of public CCRB records, legal settlements, and officer histories shows that the commissioner has assigned at least 17 officers with troubling histories to CRTs, promoted at least 13 officers with significant histories within the units, and retained at least 10 officers with significant misconduct histories in leadership positions within the CRTs.

Mt. Sinai has caved to Trump—but so too have NYC's mayor + NYS' attorney general. Ending this gender-affirming care is illegal, not only under federal but also state + city laws. So why aren't Z or Tish fighting back? The answer is money—and it shows why NY must increase its fiscal independence. 🧵
