If you're Australian, consider coming along to a Rally to Protect Trans Youth near you!

The rallies are to protest the Qld decision to pause puberty blockers as we draw a line in the sand about being used in a political culture war and importing overseas ideology. The Trans Justice Network is gathering across the country for a day of action, it's as accessible and covid-safe and family friendly as possible, with a focus on community and inclusive trans joy. There are also follow up actions planned.

Dutton wants to cut spending (and thus make government services worse) by slashing public service jobs but won't provide details to his plan.

Well, guess it's time for all those No voters for the Voice referendum to treat Dutton with the exact same aggressive aversion, right?

Surely this won't lead to an obvious hypocrisy and double standard, right???

Dutton apparently thinks "make thousands of people unemployed" is a great tactic to win during a cost of living crisis.

Anyway, this plan is obviously very bad as it'll screw over pensioners, veterans, welfare recipients, and anyone else who relies on government services for their quality of life which is *checks notes* literally everyone. That's what the public service is for. Everyone.

You will (you should oughta) contact your representatives to call for immediate investigations into the activities of Elon Musk and Musk-associated "team members" in and outside of DOGE whose reckless actions and total disregard for the law and common sense are putting national security at risk in a way that directly threatens your and your representatives' personal safety:

Actions taken by Musk and those in Musk's orbit are creating vulnerabilities in federal computer systems that can and will be exploited;

Sensitive and classified information is already compromised;

Every minute Musk & co.'s actions continue unchecked, more vulnerabilities are opened as more unapproved, unreviewed protocols are introduced into more systems;

It is unclear what if any screening many of these people have;

Routine safety procedures are being bypassed;

Information systems used by members of Congress and their staff are at risk via improper access to and use of General Services Administration systems;

Their physical workplaces and all services they rely on that are managed through GSA are or soon will be rendered unsafe unless immediate action is taken;

China, Iran and Russia, already known for anti-US cyberattacks, in addition to hostile non-state actors, will exploit this and are no doubt already attempting to do so;

Vital infrastructure our federal government relies on to manage funds and resources and to coordinate and conduct virtually all its activities, including officials' confidential communications and emergency management, is at extreme risk;

This is obviously dangerous, and cannot continue.

If you live in a red state/red district and have never contacted your Republican reps before, now is a golden time to start. Y'all know liberal talking points won't phase them, so you need to be calling/emailing and speaking their language. Demand to know why the Republicans are soft on crime with Trump pardoning the Jan 6ers. Demand to know why Republicans hate Christian values by their attacking the Catholic Church. Demand to know why your tax payer money is going to incarcerate illegal immigrants in prisons. Gulf of America? More like why not the Gulf of Lower Egg Prices?

Call them. Most importantly, speak their language.
