Trump’s Attacks on Trans Rights with Chase Strangio
In recent years, despite trans people making up a relatively small percentage of the population, there has been an outsized and deeply harmful wave of anti-trans backlash.

The Los Angeles fires were not preventable, virtually nothing could have been done to prevent the devastation.
