So what exactly do Easter eggs have to do with trans people? Imara dives into the asinine conservative uproar over Trans Day of Visibility this year and Caitlyn Jenner’s never-ending bad takes.

But Republicans aren’t the only only ones making a mess. Imara takes a closer look at how the Biden administration is dragging its feet on protecting trans athletes through promised changes to Title IX rules. And as pressure mounts on the President to take action on Gaza, she takes a look at the split-screen images of the Democratic National Convention’s glitzy celebrity fundraiser and growing pro-Palestine protests.
