Every year, January to April, people accuse me of fearmongering in my reporting. Every year around this time, bills pass. And without fail, every year, the ratchet tightens. And now Idaho just passed a bill that could put me in prison for years—for washing my hands in a bathroom.

@erininthemorning.com Time for the left to wake up.

Of course, many on the left, especially centrist Dems, are more than happy to be complicit, as long as it’s in a way that allows them to pretend they’re morally righteous.

Also, it’s time that LGBT people, and especially trans people, leave these states. The cries of “I have a life here,” and “this is America, I get to live where I want” don’t hold water. No, you don’t get to live where you want precisely because this is America.
