The amount of vitriol this article has gotten is ridiculous and it’s a student journalist? God forbid a student journalist highlights how the government is threatening to slash funds to ensure compliance
The participants in Wall's study were all above the age of 18, but Eli Coston, Associate Chair of the Department of Gender, Sexuality and Women's Studies at VCU, said these laws affect trans minors as well.

Coston said that for trans youth in particular, the most common treatment to receive is starting puberty blockers, a medication that stops the human body from producing the main two sex hormones, estrogen and testosterone. They said that anti-trans legislation can put transgender youth's access to these medications at risk.According to Coston, hospitals at universities such as VCU or University of Virginia rely on federal funds to provide a wide variety of services, not just gender affirming care.

"By continuing to provide gender affirming care to those under the age of 19, they would risk losing funding that supports all of their patients," Coston said.

Gender affirming care for minors is still legal in Virginia, though most providers who did provide that type of care no longer provide it because they are major hospital systems, according to Coston.

"There are still providers that provide those services, but they're largely independent and don't rely on federal funds," Coston said.

BREAKING: In responding to one of two lawsuits challenging the legality of the Trump-praising DHS propaganda ads, DOJ tonight does not defend the ads on the merits — instead arguing that the ads are set to end on Sunday, so there will be no irreparable harm. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
PRELIMINARY STATEMENT
Plaintiffs' motion should be denied because the alleged improper final agency action of which they are complaining "run[ning] partisan political ads, funded by U.S. taxpayers," Plaintiffs' Brief in Support of Motion for a Temporary Restraining Order and Section 705 Stay (Pls. Br.") (ECF No. 26) at 1-will not continue past tomorrow, the date on which briefing on their motion for a TRO will close. As such, Plaintiffs cannot demonstrate that a TRO is necessary to prevent imminent irreparable harm to them from Defendants' future conduct.

We rightly worry most about the core electoral machinery and that's holding up pretty well, but any election under Trump is still something less than free and fair. Even if it's not enough to flip the outcome, state resources and power are unambiguously being abused to favor the incumbent party.

The right wing crash out over asian students celebrating at a UT football game reveals that all along the true goal of reactionary colorblindness was never “meritocracy” but resegregation. (Gift link) www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/1...
Color-blind meritocracy was, for many years, a successful rhetorical strategy for undermining antidiscrimination law and excluding Black people from selective schools and prominent positions. That’s why so many former segregationists seemed to suddenly embrace the concept in the 1970s. For them, resegregation—not color-blindness—was always the goal. As long as the success of some immigrants could be used to paint Black students as undeserving, color-blind meritocracy was good. But now many on the right see a new problem: too many Asian Americans in elite spaces. Their success, therefore, must be portrayed as a sinister theft of real (white) Americans’ birthright.

The declining “social trust” that the administration warned against is, of course, not the fault of these students. The problem is bigots like Bo French who cannot accept into their community people who do not share their race and religion, and those who monetize or otherwise profit from that bigotry by spreading it through social media. Like the proverbial child who kills their parents and asks for mercy as an orphan, they are responsible for the problem they are decrying.

New working paper: the Norwegian wealth tax was a huge success. The "exodus" of wealthy people never happened (less than 100 individuals left). Tax revenue increased by 71.5%. No changes in business activity or investment. www.nber.org/papers/w35854
Taxing Entrepreneurial Wealth: Evidence from
Norway, 2021-2025
Marius A. K. Ring
WORKING PAPER 35854|
DOl 10.3386/w35854
ISSUE DATE October 2026
Whether imposing higher taxes on business owners adversely affects business activity by constraining investment and inducing capitalist flight is a central question in the ongoing debate on how to tax the ultra wealthy. To shed new light, I exploit a series of related Norwegian reforms during 2021-2024 that increased dividend tax rates, removed migration-related capital gains tax loopholes, and nearly doubled the effective marginal tax rate on business wealth. These reforms spurred international debate and, allegedly, an "exodus" of Norwegian billionaires (Financial Times,
2023). While I document clear effects on migration, these responses are concentrated among the top 0.1% of the wealth distribution and mostly confined to 2022 and 2023. My results indicate that at most 100 individuals left due to the reforms. I find no evidence of significant outmigration or reduced inflows of startup founders or inventors. I estimate that absent any outmigration, wealth tax revenues would have increased by 75% from 2021 to 2024. Reform-driven outmigration lowers the revenue gain to 71.5%. My findings further show that outmigrating owners' firms remain economically active and do not reduce investment. In a broader set of analyses, I examine whether business outcomes are affected, regardless of whether owners outmigrate, since firms may reduce investment both due to liquidity constraints or distortions to owners' savings decisions. I compare firms owned by Norwegian individuals subject to the wealth tax with firms owned by foreigners and other tax-exempt entities. By merging historical ownership data from Orbis with the Norwegian shareholder register, I perform these analyses on both Norwegian and foreign-domiciled firms.
Across settings, I find no evidence that Norwegian-owned firms pay out more dividends or invest less after the reforms,…
