With thanks you you and Alejandra Q for another superb round-up. It is continually dismaying that the Democrats and associated pundits mischaracterize state actions that in any sane world should be seen as uncontroversial. The Nebraska Women’s Bill of Rights E.O. seems to me a clear example of this. So many good links and commentary here, hard to know where to begin, but I do recommend the Davies-Aries article, in particular. And yes, I hope the Wyoming sorority members vote with their feet and refuse to continue participation. What an absolutely stupid decision the sorority made in the first place, and the judge made in the second place.
Bottom line: everyone everywhere should read these excellent “in brief” missives to get an accurate, intelligent picture of what is going on.
Gay Canadian here, and I met the news of the travel warning to the U.S. with my jaw getting rug burn. I travel to DeSantis country regularly to visit family, and I’ve never any difference in my safety. I follow the U.S. culture wars, as well as our own, and I can’t imagine any danger to one’s person cropping up in either place.
I’m trying to imagine the person--the people!--who decided on this advisory, and I can only imagine Ativan addicts huddled in a cupboard. That this was written down and sent out to the press is a huge embarrassment to the Canadian government.
It's not an embarrassment to the government at all... it was as intended.
The Liberal government under Trudeau cannot win the next election by going after a much more popular Conservative leader Poilievere nor go after the super majority (~85%) of parents in favour of schools keeping them informed about their child's desired name change. So what's a political communications officer to do? Well, head into the culture wards, of course, and try to have Trudeau run against misrepresented Republicans legislation. See? Not crazy at all.

This came out yesterday and made me want to vomit. I ache for these families; for these kids. This cannot implode fast enough: https://open.substack.com/pub/fairforall/p/fair-news-standing-for-parents-constitutional?r=9v8aq&utm_medium=ios&utm_campaign=post
As always, I appreciate all that you do! Thank you for writing!
