Brought to you by the same guy who (likely sincerely) thought/stated asylum seeking immigrants were fleeing in-patient mental health facilities in their country of origin.

The same people who portrayed asylum-seeking immigrants as immigrants who left inpatient mental health facilities are now insinuating that kids are getting gender reassignment surgery because their teacher calls them by their chosen name and pronouns. Stop engaging with their intentional misinfo.

The GOP intentionally, ambiguously, conflates preferred names/pronouns with gender reassignment surgery, because then they don't have to do the work to respect their kids choices/agency at home, even if some trusted adults at school - gasp!- actually treat their kids with kindness and dignity.

...and, honestly, I think that having their kids treated with respect and dignity by other adults in their lives, when they can't bring themselves to do so, chafes them the most. It's not (just) accusations about top or bottom surgeries performed in schools, it's that kids are thinking critically.

I think that many GOP parents had children that asked them to call them by their chosen name and gender identity, and their heads exploded because they can't differentiate between sex, gender, and sexual orientation. And, perhaps, because the kids' teachers honor their kids' agency, they're furious.
An image of The Gender Unicorn from the Trans Student Educational Resource (TSER) available at https://transstudent.org/gender/

Designed by Lanyn Pan and Anna Moore

The image is of a purple unicorn with a drawing of chromosones between its legs, and a drawing of two hearts on its chest. To the right of the unicorn are depictions of spectrums broken out by category: gender identity, gender expression, sex assigned at birth, physically attracted to, and emotionally attracted to.

Under "gender identity" category are three teal arrows that point right, each depicting a spectrum - the first points to "female/woman/girl." The second arrow to "male/man/boy." The third to "other gender(s)."

Under "gender expression" category are three green arrows that point right, each depicting a spectrum. The first points to "feminine," the second to "masculine," and the third to "other."

Under "sex assigned at birth" category are three radio buttons for "female," "male" "other/intersex"

Under the "physically attracted to" categoty are three orange arrows that point right, each depicting a spectrum. The first points to "women," the second to "men," and the third to "other gender(s)."

Under the "emotionally attracted to" category are three orange arrows that point right, each depicting a spectrum. The first points to "women," the second to "men," and the third to "other gender(s)."

We can walk and chew gum at the same time. I'm voting straight blue, and filling in every oval. But when we win, if there is no movement towards true progress, accountability for centrist Ds as well as GOP. And not speaking out on behalf of the targeted persecution of Rep. Omar is intolerable.

I agree with you on the approval, however I also think it was self-interested (as always). Follow the money, and I guarantee it leads to stock holdings in the companies racing to develop the vaccines.

The planet isn't "dying" of natural causes. Forests don't just disappear. They are logged. Oceans don't just choke. They are polluted. Rivers don't just dry up. They are diverted. This is not a tragedy. It's ecocide. And ecocide should be a crime. #StopEcocide

Farmers aren't monolith. There are many, often small specialty crop farmers, that don't vote against their interests. Some IA farmers I know are the most progressive, amazing activists I know.

Support local sourcing by institutions (schools, senior centers, hospitals, etc), subsidize specialty crop small farmers so they can thrive and still supply affordable food, provide all farmers health and crop insurance, pass COOL, expand SNAP and Double Up Food Bucks programs...there is much to do.

To be fair, those agents have an acute awareness of what those soulless, evil people in those files would do to them and, perhaps more importantly, anyone they care about, without hesitation, if they exposed them. I could not imagine having to make that choice.

You also have to, you know, *investigate* to catch them cheating. Not looking, then balking at a "lack of evidence," is the circular thinking that drives me batty.
