Sadly, ICE learned what not to do in Minnesota… they have not left… but are spreading out in disguise tricking and nabbing people before we can respond. We need a new plan….

Trans Youth Suicides Skyrocketed In UK After Care Drawdown; Government Covers It Up A Freedom of Information request to the National Child Mortality Database reveals that 22 trans children under 18 died by suicide in England in 2021-22 alone.

Then covered it up again when caught.

Now, after fighting for years, the data is public: trans suicide increased 5x in the country.
