Trump’s Lawyers Didn’t Disclose Proposal to Put Up Full $464 Million Bond
==
An appeals court reduced Trump’s bond by more than 60% after his attorneys claimed it was a “practical impossibility” to pay the full amount.
Their failure to disclose a proposal from a billionaire financier may have violated #ethics rules.

In the New York Times last week a pair of reactionaries argued against the term "assigned sex at birth" in an impossibly dumbed-down discussion that ignored the existence of intersex people, the reason the term exists in the first place.
On Assigned, we hold ourselves to higher standards for both scientific accuracy and thoughtfulness.
Therefore, please enjoy this opinion essay by a medical doctor arguing assigning sex is harmful and unnecessary. #trans #science #news

As a reporter, I've followed the science of gender-affirming care from before the current political moment. I have always committed to following the evidence, whether I like it or don't like it.
Today on Assigned, I've published a piece by a freelancer who did her master's on the informed consent model of gender affirming treatment. She wrote us a digest version.
The narrative is the narrative. The evidence tells another story. #trans #science #news #journalism

Despite years of air monitoring, inspections and millions in penalties for petrochemical plants, the air in Calvert City, #Kentucky, remains polluted.
The EPA’s inability to fix it is an indictment of the laws governing clean air, experts say.

More than 180 have since either escaped or been freed. Lisu, which is not her real name, was one who escaped and now lives in group housing under state care. She feels she is being treated worse. “I do regret coming back.” Read more from the BBC: https://flip.it/.VJSUC

A little known fact about trans people is that transgender Americans are twice as likely to serve in the military.
This means many rely on VA healthcare for their medical needs. But politicization of trans healthcare has resulted in a lack of access to trans surgeries for vets.
The Transgender Americans Veterans Association is fighting to change that. Alyssa Steinsiek has more, for Assigned.
