- Reposted by Aaron HomerPer this new report: Since January 2025, more than 40 hospitals have restricted transition-related care for trans young people. The article also includes a scrollable chart of all the hospitals, with useful details like what patient population they have paused or stopped care for.
- I tallied all the hospitals and health systems that have stopped providing gender-affirming care to young people in the last year (so you don't have to) This includes nine that have stopped providing hormones and puberty blockers since the beginning of the year. www.statnews.com/2026/02/05/h...

- Reposted by Aaron HomerThis keeps happening. Trump makes an absurd threat or exerts his power in a clearly illegal way. The White House comes up with some bullshit policy justification. Republicans dutifully parrot it. Trump then backs down, but for obscenely vain or brazenly corrupt reasons.
- Think about what it says that we're not all freaking out that Trump has said he would unfreeze appropriated funds fund infrastructure if Chuck Schumer agrees to rename Penn Station and Dulles airport after Trump. www.cnn.com/2026/02/05/p...

- Reposted by Aaron Homerin real terms, #7 would give states leverage to put an end to surges, #8 would give states the ability to outright stop construction of new detention facilities, #1 and #6 would slow the rate at which DHS could train and deploy officers, #2 and #10 would likely shrink the pool of recruits

- The CIA just stopped publishing their World Factbook and took every page, including the archived copies of previous versions! This sucks. It was public domain, so I recovered the 2020 edition (the last one published as a zip file) and shared it to GitHub simonwillison.net/2026/Feb/5/t...

- Reposted by Aaron HomerRemember the incident where DHS claimed officers shot a guy because he attacked them with a snow shovel? Yeah. It didn't happen. They shot him through the door of his own home. And then arrested him. And then lied about it. Again. And they almost shot some kids in the process.
