Hunter Schafer, a transgender woman, said her previous passport had listed her as female, with the change following President Trump’s executive orders on sex and gender.

Hunter Schafer is detailing her “harsh reality check” amid the Trump administration. After being inaugurated for his non-consecutive second term, on January 20, 2025, President Donald Trump issued an executive order that, in part, declared that only two genders will recognized by the United States, male and female as assigned at birth.

Officials in New York announced they have arrested two more individuals who they believe are connected to the torture death of a Minnesota transgender man, Sam Nordquist.

Seven suspects have now been arrested and charged with murder after the body of 24-year-old Sam Nordquist was found last week in upstate New York.

Authorities say Nordquist died following repeated acts of violence and torture for more than a month by multiple people.
