It was never about the children.

yes, but also maybe take the threat against trans people seriously? like, Trump just said he wants to ban trans healthcare. it seems like that should also be a big deal. saying that everything is a distraction from the Epstein files has become a distraction from some serious shit.
The point is that the Epstein files has been pretty much the only thing to bring cracks in Republican support for Trump.
Everyone who is upset at this news on Trans health care already know Trump is a useless piece of shit. His base on the other hand will probably cheer this on.
So driving that wedge that is the Epstein files is imperative if we want to chip away at his approval ratings and hope we can salvage this shit in next year's midterms (I know, a stretch).
The other stuff is also bad–the fascism and stuff–but it might be useful here.
Oh, so when the government shuts down in a day or two, because you’re a piece of shit and no one wants to give you money to continue with being a piece of shit, of course you’re gonna blame trans kids for this
You piece of shit
It's a yearly ritual at this point.
CALL HIS FUCKING BLUFF!
LET HIM DO IT AND FAIL OR WITHDRAW AND BE WEAK
How enthusiastic are ICE agents deployed to whereever going to be without a paycheck?
Looking from outside in, seems to me that this is one of those rare instances where a lot of those already doing it would happily do it as a passion project or a hobby on the side… I’d wager most people with even a trace amount of morals wouldn’t do it, not for a paycheck or otherwise.
Let them shut down the government. Keep it shut down. Let's see how long the troops will work for free.
I’m quite confident Schumer will continue to display the backbone of a sea cucumber and capitulate with no meaningful opposition whatsoever.
Oh no! I guess the ONLY Option is to Ban ALL Transgender Healthcare in American in exchange for NOTHING!
-Chuck Schumer!
I hope he shuts down the government, honestly.... It might limit how much damage he does.
I honestly don't think he even knows what shutting down the government actually means. I'm betting he thinks it's just the poors not getting access to essential services, which he's probably fine with. I'm positive he doesn't realize that it cuts off literally every perk except for secret service that he gets as president. The entire White House staff will be sent home except for executives and unpaid interns.
Honestly, at this point the government already is shut down. It's been shut down for months. We're just still in the denial stage. Trump's claimed and a criminally corrupt SCOTUS has endorsed Trump just refusing to pay funds allocated by Congress. There is absolutely zero point in Democrats negotiating with Republicans on this, as Trump can just refuse to pay any Democratic priorities they fund.
Cis people should be scared about this too. Things like supplementing estrogen (for woman after they have gone through menopause) or testosterone is a quite normal thing. Im betting my ass, that this regulations will affect these things too.
Good. Do it. The government ain't doing shit for people who actually need help anyways.
Still scrolling down looking for the basic Transgender Solidarity post but I guess allies are sleeping in....
Trans dance party starts here. I am starting the dance party.
Then we can take a break and write our reps and remind our friends and go back to our daily revolutionary work of staying alive and experiencing joy three steps ahead of the murderbigots.
All trans healthcare? Does that mean all transition-related care? Or all healthcare to trans people?
My moneys on both
How many kids did this fucker rape??? Every day it's a new horrid thing to try and distract us from the fact He Raped Children!
I'd call him a garbage human, but he's way beyond sub-human at this point
I have to fly back into the states soon, I would appreciate it if air traffic controllers would first off, get proper time off, pay, and benefits, but also that they are paid
TACO?
Solidarity. Trans important!
Or the truth, Democrats are shutting down the government because Trump and his regime are developing into a fascist autocracy.
IDK how dumb this idea is, but what if Trump/Republicans that align with him are trying to cause a shutdown to take advantage of the chaos somehow and blame it on the Democrats, and part of the reason for sending the military to Portland/LA was to anger the Democrats enough to not fold?
Of course they are going to blame the Democrats. That was never not the play, lol.
Sounds like he's looking for a win because he's going to lose on healthcare in general. It's a smart way to go about it because the transgender people are going to be sacrificed again and it puts healthcare at the top. It's smart, but 100% evil.
If the Democrats cave on that, then fuck them too.
But as far as I'm concerned Trump just delivered an easy win for the Democrats - this is an easy out for Democrats to not cooperate with Republicans (obviously morally abhorrent demand) and shift the blame for the shutdown to the right.
Do it you fucking orange, do it.
But don’t be surprised when half your population moves to a better country.
Wait.
Is he trying to reverse psychology something
He's trying to convince his very stupid followers this is a shutdown he started over transifa. They will overwhelmingly accept this.
Its almost as if he doesn't care about the reason and will make up anything on the spot.
Oh, and hes also a child fucker.
