Weathering the storm: Georgia's trans community & climate change activism [1]

['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.']

With just five days before the inauguration of a second Donald Trump term, the trans community in Georgia (and throughout the U.S.) has had to weather a storm of antir-trans sentiment; some of it put to use by the Trump campaign.

We check in with Jeff Graham, executive director for ⁠Georgia Equality⁠, to get a sense what their activism can accomplish with a decidely-conservative state legislature and GOP governor likely angling to solidify his conservative bonafides ahead of a potential Senate or Presidential run.

Speaking of weathering and storms, the founding director of ⁠End Climate Silence,⁠ ⁠Dr. Genevieve Guenther⁠ (author of ⁠"The Language of Climate Politics"⁠) joined me to add her immense credibility to correct a wave of disinformation as the Eaton/Palisades wildfires ravage southern California.

Oh, and reviewing ⁠Jon Stewart's blistering of hypocritical Republicans in DC seeking to add conditions to aid⁠ was worth a review, too.
