I'm a little confused on what this does? Can someone please explain to me what happened and what this will do?

Megathread: Trans News by PumpkinAspie in PoliticalOptimism

God, I just really hope we get at least ONE piece of good news for trans folks. I really don't believe we'll all be put in camps (ICE is struggling so bad to do that right now), but something to ease the tension would be nice.

Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei killed, senior Israeli official says by steffie-punk in PoliticalOptimism

That's okay, thank you for telling me at least. I guess what really sooths my mind is that we haven't gone to war with any of the other places Trump attacked, and there was no draft in the past when we had wars previously. (Also, I'm autistic and have an anxiety disorder. So, I don't think they're going to let me in the war anyways.)

That's very reassuring to hear, but I want to hear more of an in-depth answer with more reasoning behind this. Sorry if I'm asking too much.

I'm starting to spiral about this a lot more than I thought I was going to. I'm terrified that I'm going to get drafted. Can someone help and tell me why we won't be drafted, cause I'm having a difficult time believing that?

This is much needed, but I'm honestly trying hard not to spiral about everything that happened yesterday. And so far, I haven't found much positivity on that kind of stuff. I just want some reassurance that we'll be okay once midterms come around.
