It is the elections.
I’m worried.
I’m worried about me.
I’m worried about Trump.
I’m worried about our country.
But most of all, I’m worried about me.
As we learn more and more about the vindictiveness of the Trump administration, I am worried about being trans under this administration.
I look at how DOGE mined IRS files for immigrants!
And I am worried that they can do the same for us—the trans community. With the press of a button, you can find out I’m trans. Trans people in Germany were rounded up and put in concentration camps.
Politicians in this country have said the same things!
Republicans have talked about institutionalizing people!
I worry about what will happen on November 4th.
That’s why I’m stressed.
I remember James Baldwin’s words…
"It is a terrible thing to be completely at the mercy of another people... but it is even more terrible to have to fight every day, from the moment you wake up until the moment you go to sleep, just for the right to breathe."
He is right!
Never in my 78 years did I think I would be scared of what my government would do to me.
