Digital ad spending on anti trans ads is on pace with 2024 and could potentially exceed it. Despite some reporting that PACs might be retreating on anti trans ads, that doesn't seem to be the case. adtracker.lgbtqlegislation.com

Remember, everyone, this isn't happening. Democrats are not campaigning against trans people. It's not happening.
Annie Andrews ad, campaigning against trans rights. She says "I don't support biological men playing in women's sports." Graphic next to her says "No gender surgeries for minors."Marcy Kaptur ad: I voted with Republicans to keep transgender ideology out of our schools. Sherrod Brown ad: In Ohio it's illegal to perform transgender surgeries on children. Marcy Kaptur ad: boys should not play girls sports.

This new Sherrod Brown ad debunks a anti trans ad while tying the Republican senate candidate to Jeffrey Epstein. THIS is how you fight back against anti trans ads.

A Tennessee appellate court has ruled that the killing of a woman may have been justifiable because she was trans. The court reversed a conviction, stating that the killer could have a new trial because the jury did not know the woman killed was trans. Trans panic in the modern era.

Killing of Woman May Have Been Justifiable Because She Was Trans, Tennessee Court Rules
The case is a bitter reminder of the ways LGBTQ people have had their identities weaponized by the courts in the past, most notoriously through a legal defense tactic known as gay or trans “panic.”

Sherrod Brown's new response to an anti-trans ad is remarkably different from many other dems. Instead of accepting bigotry towards trans people, he pivots and links his Republican opponent to the Epstein files. It is notably different from his earlier ads. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Below the title, the summary text asks: "Is the victory of the AfD in Germany a dark day for democracy or a glimmer of hope for sex realists? By David Allison." The bottom metadata displays the Genspect logo, "5 hours ago," and a "Listen" audio option button. In the top right corner, there is a teal "Subscribe" button alongside a circular profile avatar.
