More Social Security talk in the MICHIGAN Senate debate tonight. Mike Rogers calls for "a bipartisan solution" to prevent a 22% benefit cut without backing a specific path. Abdul El-Sayed says: "The answer is obvious here. We should eliminate the cap."

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.”

New: The Trump admin is rolling out a nationwide tour to combat hate and antisemitism — meanwhile, a rabbi arrested for protesting Israel now says that ICE agents told him they "don't care" about his religious needs, like the ability to pray away from a prison toilet during the Jewish holy days.

We may cover this tomorrow, but I just wanted to signal boost this. After months of pushing the administration to make good on its promises for trans youth, NYC appears to be taking steps to do so. I do believe the city can be doing much more, but this is a wonderful start from Mayor Mamdani.
