Advocates report harassment and loss of gender-affirming care as trans women face transfers to men’s prisons
Summary
Donald Trump’s executive order banning recognition of transgender identities in federal prisons has led to widespread crackdowns.
Trans women have been placed in isolation, told they will be transferred to men’s prisons, and denied gender-affirming medical care.
Civil rights groups warn this violates federal protections and puts trans prisoners at high risk of violence.
Lawsuits have already been filed, with one judge temporarily blocking a transfer.
Advocates fear the order will lead to increased assaults, suicides, and loss of essential healthcare.
The cruelty is the point. They want us all to die, and they're going to encourage it however they can.
I am pretty sure you can remove "federal prisons" from that title. They won't stop until they kill/deport/force to leave, anyone who is an "other" to them.
Michael Knowles let the mask fall right off and people still aren't paying attention- or don't give a fuck.
Completely evil.
