Hey fam, it's me, Amara.

Welcome to the Translash podcast, a show where we tell trans stories to save trans lives.

Well, the first 100 days of Trump's second term have been a firestorm, maybe a nuclear bomb, of attacks on democracy and marginalized groups of all kind.

From his attempts to ban gender affirming care for minors to attacks on trans athletes and military service members, the assault on our community has been relentless and overwhelming.

Moreover, he perhaps inadvertently has targeted members of his base, well, the entire country,

through the announcement of wide-ranging and sky-high tariffs, which possibly will lead to a recession, a decline in the

stock market, as well as supply shocks along the lines of 2020. So today, we're going to be

taking a look at all that we have endured over the past 100 days, and look forward to what might come next with two journalists

who have been covering this administration every step of the way.

First, I sit down with Christopher Wiggins to lay out the major moment so far

of the second Trump administration and what might be in their heads moving forward.

The fact that one of the first things that Trump did was administration and what might be in their heads moving forward.

The fact that one of the first things that Trump did was make it the policy of the U.S.

government that trans and non-binary and intersex people don't exist was shocking to me.

Then I'm joined by Caitlin Burns to discuss the impacts on our communities.

We have all these protests, and we're protesting things that aren't necessarily trans-related,

and that's okay.

But bring your trans flag to that protest.

Now, if you want political analysis and to stay up to date with all of the headlines,

including many of the ones that you have missed, that are political in nature,

then you should check out the mess.

And that is Amara's Guide, that's me, to our political healthcape.
