4th Circuit Rules That States Can Compel Trans Adults To "Appreciate Their Sex" Via Care Bans
They ruled that states "encouraging citizens to appreciate their sex" through care bans is a constitutional goal, affirming West Virginia's Medicaid ban for trans adults.
1. Horrifying ruling out of the 4th Circuit.
An all-Republican 4th Circuit panel has just ruled that states can compel trans adults to "appreciate their sex" by enacting care bans.
It even directly says that trans adult care bans are legal in the ruling.

I have seen this in action from other companies. They basically use all the data they have about you, if youβre not logged in or on your own device they look at IP address location etc and change prices based on the maximum they think youβll pay. So there is a common floor but a flexible ceiling.

Anyone supporting the U.S. and Israel in this war is supporting ecological destruction, along with bombing of schools and hospitals. You donβt get to pick and choose what parts of war you support.

Every time a woman runs for president I hear that sheβs too emotional and unstable to make wartime decisions, unlike the men in charge who make really reasonable decisions like bombing kids to death, starting water wars, and poisoning the entire planet

The President has launched our nation and our great military into a war of choice, risking American lives and resources, ignoring American law, and endangering our allies and partners. It does nothing to help with the urgent problems here at home that Americans face every day.

I'm already sick of "It's all a distraction from Epstein" replies. This regime is killing innocent people because our leaders are all power-hungry tyrants and war profiteers. When you say it's "just a distraction" you minimize the gravity of what's happening and the lives lost.

Itβs bad enough that the president is starting illegal wars that will cause tragic losses of human lives. The irreverent attitude and glorifying violence makes it so much worse. Wish the constitution was still in effect. Oh and the cherry on top is that this will wreck the already shit economy.

The morally bankrupt Trump administration has partnered with another morally bankrupt authoritarian to declare an unprovoked war on Iran, already killing scores of civilians.
We need an immediate vote from Congress on a War Powers Resolution. Then articles of impeachment.

A U.S. official said American military strikes on Iran were underway.
Remember when Congress authorized the use of force against Iran?
Me neither.
Any U.S. attack on Iran would violate U.S. and international law.

She didnβt say people canβt complain she just said sheβs tired of it happening in her comments. Especially when itβs usually off topic. Iβm curious why someone expressing their preference would make you angry? Why do you feel entitled to make every conversation about your feelings and experiences?

Any political party spreading lies about voter fraud as a pretext to make it harder for every one to vote is sending a clear message: they can't win on their ideas alone.

I am really really resentful of people who donβt like the direction America is going in but do fuck all to try to change it. Like post and complain all day and then canβt be bothered to call a representative, go to a protest, or give five bucks to a charity. The bare fucking minimum.

BREAKING: The House passed the so-called SAVE America Act which threatens to upend our freedom to vote.
The bill could disenfranchise millions of eligible voters by requiring documents like passports or birth certificates to register to vote and forcing voter roll purges. The Senate must reject it.
