A New York Times podcast on transgender youth health care, released June 5, features the mother of a trans girl against her will after producers caught a vulnerable moment on tape. The teaser for the podcast, The Protocol, says that it will examine the history and politicization of gender-affirming care for youth. But Assigned Media has learned the six-episode podcast is slated to include audio from the mother of a trans girl who begged producers not to include it in the show. It comes at a time of rising anti-trans hate incidents, with trans and gender-nonconforming people most targeted by discriminatory violence in the past year. In light of the NYT’s own record of biased coverage of trans youth, as highlighted by activists and even many of their own contributors, the decision to play hardball with the parent of a trans young person suggests that The Protocol will double down on harming trans people rather than chart a new path. The audio clip captures a confrontation between Heidi, the mother of a trans girl, and Jamie Reed, a former Missouri gender clinic staffer-turned-activist whose sworn affidavit misrepresented the medical history of Heidi’s daughter, Grace.

Federal law enforcement officers raided a Minneapolis taco restaurant Tuesday morning, sparking protests from immigrant rights activists and neighbors. Officers wearing the uniforms of Immigration and Customs Enforcement, U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration, Minneapolis Police Department, Hennepin County Sheriff’s Office, the FBI, and the criminal investigation arm of the IRS surrounded Las Cuatro Milpas on East Lake Street. Protestors gathered on the other side of the police tape, shouting at officers and questioning why Minneapolis police — whose leaders swore wouldn’t assist federal agencies in civil immigration enforcement — stood alongside ICE agents as officers searched the building. Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey posted on social media that no arrests were made. “While we are still gathering details, this incident was related to a criminal search warrant for drugs and money laundering and was not related to immigration enforcement,” Frey wrote. Five years ago, this stretch of Lake Street was filled with protestors, who clashed with police following the murder of George Floyd. Today, protestors tossed traffic cones and trash cans in the way of law enforcement vehicles as they drove away from the scene, and shouted at the officers to go home, or quit their jobs.
