It’s very simple and it’s been said over and over but I guess it needs saying continuously: if you deem one group too small to have equal rights you are enabling fascism, not fighting it. The people saying Dems are GREAT on trans rights are not paying attention and/or saying stuff like this.

The Kennedy Center joins the Reflecting Pool, Lafayette Park and sort of the White House itself (no tours) where supposed renovations have led to indefinite loss of public access. After taxpayer funded plans/construction, these places are fenced off and closed down, not improved.

Under Republicans' segregationist logic, it's not racism or sexism unless Hegseth says "I refuse to promote anybody except white men," and even then he'd be afforded every possible opportunity to explain that further. If he added "because white men are just better," that would be accepted.

I don’t choose that word lightly. The idea that an entire field of medicine, as well as numerous academic journals, systematically suppressed evidence that gender-affirming care doesn’t work is a conspiracy theory. Meanwhile, none of these people can provide a shred of evidence for their core claim

@Aaron The integrity of academic journals is a major issue here. It's not something specific to gender medicine, though certainly the lack of viewpoints published on the subject hasn't helped.
The problems here are twofold. First, there's the one-sidedness of most of the published articles. It's much easier to get something published in JAMA or the New England Journal of Medicine if it's supportive of gender-affirming care. Second, there have been some major problems with some of the studies published on this subject. In some cases, bad outcomes for patients were overlooked. That's what the evidence reviews have found. And that doesn't inspire a lot of confidence from the public.

@David Bruce If there's one area of agreement between the health professionals who support limiting access to medical treatments and those who don't, it's that they both believe the political interference has been harmful. Medicine is definitely an area where an either/or binary doesn't usually work.
And what I've found in my reporting is the same thing Hilary Cass, the noted British pediatrician, found when she conducted a review of gender medicine for the NHS.
Evidence for and against these procedures is often misrepresented and cherry picked. So what's a parent who doesn't know how to read academic journals supposed to do?

While we’re worried about the war, the Epstein files, drone attacks in CA… Josh Hawley and Republicans are taking this moment to push legislation to strip FDA approval for Mifepristone The assaults on Americans are coming from inside the house.

THE HILL
SENATE
Hawley introduces bill to remove FDA approval for Mifepristone
BY ALEXANDER BOLTON - 03/11/26 5:29 PM ET

THE HILL
Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) on Wednesday unveiled legislation to remove Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval for the use of mifepristone to end pregnancies, a bill that has quickly gained the support of major anti-abortion groups.
The legislation is an ambitious undertaking given the drug's widespread use in the United States, where an estimated 7.5 million women have used it to terminate pregnancies since the FDA approved its use in 2000. It accounted for 63 percent of all abortions in the U.S. in 2023.
But mifepristone, which when combined with the drug misoprostol can end pregnancies at up to 70 days of gestation, has become a major target of the anti-abortion movement. President Trump has sought to satisfy those anti-abortion voices by launching an FDA review of the drug, which has not been completed.
Hawley says the ability of doctors to prescribe the drug across state lines has led to rampant abuse and alleges that incidences of adverse health effects are far more common than the drug's maker, Danco Laboratories, has acknowledged.
