The administration has already been blocked from implementing its ban on gender-affirming care in prisons. Last year, three transgender people currently incarcerated in federal custody filed a class action suit against the administration and the Federal Bureau of Prisons challenging those policies. In June 2025, a federal judge granted a temporary injunction requiring the BOP to continue providing gender-affirming care to trans inmates as the case proceeds.
Once again that fucking dictatorship trying to impose its own “moral values” by systematically eliminating anyone who’s not white/“Christian”/straight/hetero/Aryan/crypto
And he wonders why people keep taking shots at him?
They’re working their way up to extermination.

Just in case cis folk are unaware, HRT isn’t something you can just “wean” someone off of. It depends upon the person’s circumstances of course but for many of us, especially those of us who have been trans for a long time, it can have severe health effects such as osteoporosis. You know, in addition to the fact that it’s literally meant to be torture.
Thanks for the write-up. Forcefully stopping someone’s medical treatment (especially with effects as strong as HRT) already sounded terrible in theory but these side effects and the deliberate intention of torture are scary and horrible as fuck. And yet, the administration and its supporters claim to be “moral”… bunch of ghouls.
It’s also similar to how England tortured Alan Turing for being gay after he helped them in WW2. He was essentially sentenced to receive forced HRT in an effort to sterilize him. He later committed suicide.
I’ve heard some of what they subjected him to… after everything he had done for them he was treated like a ‘useful idiot’ and then a pest. Abysmal. That’s their plan for trans people too - an active and passive genocide (outright killing them or pushing them to commit). I hate the state of the world right now.

MAGA is absolutely out for blood, but even the neoliberals in the Democratic party seem eager to drop support for us as a bid to appease their donors. It’s beyond maddening
Yup, SO many dems are willing to sacrifice minorities either out of genuine phobia or to appease and win some voters on the right. I know that the wish for ‘absolute moral purity’ can mess up SO MUCH in politics, especially for dems during elections as far as I have seen. Trans people make up such a small percentage of the population and are ALREADY victimized ridiculously more than they commit any crimes or moral failings and these people just feed into the deliberate misinformation campaign of “violent trans shooters”.
Guess those poor inmates will find out. And it already was one of the worst countries to me, with every new news it gets worse.
Leave while you can, I’d say. It won’t get better, the US is in deep-dive-mode to Idiocracy…
I have an eu passport, I can get my kids one too. One of them is a trans man. They won’t go :( I can’t leave without them.
Well fuck, that sucks some big sweaty monkey-balls. Especially if you so easily COULD. But why the fuck would any trans (or anything that is not straight and white and born in that stupid country) not want to leave?! Don’t they SEE what is happening?
Yeah, he loves his home. I can respect that.
Then let’s just hope nothing ever happens and shit doesn’t get worse.

I did :) And I’ve been helping others figure out their exit strategy
Great! And helping is also great :) Where did you end up in and how is it?
My partner and I had been preparing prior to the election so we pulled the lever and moved to Canada at first chance. I’ll note I already had friends here to start.
Quite simply, we’ve only received the warmest welcome since we arrived and have since fallen in love with the country and its people. We’re both artists and have had zero trouble finding our communities and making connections. I even decided to take the opportunity to speedrun French and have already attained a conversational level (I’m fluent in Spanish which helps a lot)
That’s not to say Canada doesn’t have its own political issues either, it has plenty of those to go around (shocker I know), but what country on earth doesn’t right now?
True, all countries are somehow shitty, but you picked one of the better one. And already are fluent at their language. CHEATER! :-) But happy for you guys. Good decision, good pick. At least it surely can’t be worse and you’re not surrounded by hate.
Punch an american today
I’d prefer helping someone up that’s already lying on the floor 😉
At this point. I am honestly surprised they were still given anything.
I mean born americans are getting shot dead broad daylight by government agents.
US born citizens losing their right to vote bc they changed their name for marriage.
Some ‘criminal elements’ not having approved medical care in a for profit prison system … I mean wasn’t some texas prison saying inmates don’t need access to clean water? (even for drinking)Yeah I remember the days when I thought we were third world because of our lack of universal healthcare. then the unmarked and masked militia started randomly grabbing and killing people on the streets.
We told you this would happen if the Republican scumbags were allowed to take power. We fucking warned you.
Americans. Do. Not. Care.
I’m an American and I care very much. I go to protests. I donate to causes like the Trevor Project. Republican Americans largely don’t care.
Those are things you’re supposed to be doing during the BEST of times. That’s called “participating in democracy.”
You’re doing fuck all to fight fascism.
Yes, we do

Your anger is justified, but directed at the wrong person. Regular people aren’t the enemy here. The enemy is, and always has been, the wealthy class.
Apparently not since this guy is in office again.
Cruel and unusual punishment is supposed to be unconstitutional…
The Constitution was dismantled a long time ago. The 4th Amendment’s been irrelevant for decades they cut so many holes in it.
Do it enough and it’s no longer unusual, and the law says it has to be both. Such bullshit
That “and” does a lot of heavy lifting, because the courts have decided that treatment needs to be both cruel and unusual. That means that if they do it to everyone all the time, it’s no longer “unusual” and isn’t prohibited.
Disgusting.
Of course they do. Because that’s the whole point of this: cruelty. As every other fascist dictatorship, they need enemies. And right now, who are their best (as in easiest to hate and beat) enemies? Yup, lgbtq+ folks and inmigrants.
Expect things to get worse before november and, depending on what happens then, maybe even worse after november.
As for the justice system, yeah. It’s about time usians understand the meaning of the words “[usian] police serves the capital, not the people”.
The only ones that can enforce the judicial decisions are the police (state, local, federal, any of it) and since they serve the capital (which is the class ruling you), do you really think they’re gonna hurt the people they serve?
The US are already a russian-type of “democracy”. You’re only missing the fake elections but they might be coming in November so hang in tight.
Courts, you will continue to be more irrelevant if no one enforces their rulings. Existential crisis.
That’s what the US Marshals are for. They are a police force answering directly to the courts. It’s a police force of limited jurisdiction, but an agency executive not obeying court orders falls within that jurisdiction.
Well that’s really cool…
Let’s see if they get the Marshalls organized within the next couple weeks. It would be cool to see them arrest a few uncooperative wardens.
Use it or lose it, courts.
Beyond deranged.
“In defiance of court order”. What are the courts going to do about this?
Write a mildly worded email.
Nothing courts are entirely powerless children. They have no real power. Those who have the actual power are starting to realize that if they just don’t listen to them there’s nothing they can do.
Hold people in contempt, put out arrest warrants, and stick the US Marshalls (police force directly answerable to only the courts) on 'em?
It would be nice if they actually did this.
Fuck it. They should just order people released if the government isn’t going to follow court orders. And if the administration doesn’t released those the courts ordered released, they courts should let private citizens storm jails and free the wrongfully held at the point of gun. All they would have to do is say, “the courts will not hear any cases relating to private individuals using force to enforce lawful court orders.”
Then it would be perfectly legal to go and simply shoot your way into prisons to free the unjustly held.
Find some totally unrelated way to punish the most vulnerable
