Episode Description

Trump is calling it a “Big Beautiful Bill,” but the Republican budget is hiding an ugly new attack on gender-affirming care. Imara examines the rollout of Trump’s military ban after the Supreme Court cleared the runway for the removal of trans service members. And that’s not the only thing SCOTUS has been up to. Imara breaks down an ongoing scandal in Maine where, after being censured by the Maine House of Representatives for targeting a trans teen online, state rep Laurel Libby has had her voting rights restored.
