When the CPS worker investigated us in our home this year, she ended her interrogation of me by asking me if I had any questions.   I did. Quite a few, actually. Like "How do you sleep at night" and "Show me in the Constitution where any of this is legal."  Buckle up. Angry 🧵:  — Amber Briggle (she/her) (@mrsbriggle) September 1, 2022ALT
Instead, I looked her in the eye, steadied my shaky voice, and asked her if she knew how many kids in custody of @TexasDFPS died since 2020.  "I dont know," she said.  "At least ONE HUNDRED," I told her.  I continued:  — Amber Briggle (she/her) (@mrsbriggle) September 1, 2022ALT
"How many MORE children are going to suffer and DIE, because employees like you are wasting valuable, scarce resources terrorizing families like mine for doing nothing more than loving our transgender kids unconditionally?"  She didn't have an answer for me.  — Amber Briggle (she/her) (@mrsbriggle) September 1, 2022ALT
It's no secret that @TexasDFPS has been an absolute shitshow for YEARS now. Kids are sleeping under desks, getting lost in the system, and are dying due to neglect from all the adults in their life — including their CPS caseworker.  — Amber Briggle (she/her) (@mrsbriggle) September 1, 2022ALT
More than 2000 DFPS employees have quit since @GregAbbott_TX and @KenPaxtonTX issued their illegal edict against trans inclusive families. TWO THOUSAND fewer caseworkers just this year, in an agency that was already understaffed, underfunded, and overworked.  — Amber Briggle (she/her) (@mrsbriggle) September 1, 2022ALT
Mark my words: more children will die from this. And it won't be just trans kids who die by suicide from being told they don't belong anywhere. It will be the most vulnerable children already in CPS custody, who will die from *actual* abuse and neglect.  — Amber Briggle (she/her) (@mrsbriggle) September 1, 2022ALT

If you don’t live in Texas it’s probably easy to forget that our state department of family and protective services is still under a directive from our fucking evil state officials to treat trans affirming parents as abusers.

It’s so vile. I have friends who work for other state departments who just told me at someone’s bday last weekend that TDFPS is a dumpster fire of horrific proportions.

I was able to read it freely using a Firefox private browser, but just in case the paywall on that^ link is an obstacle for you, here’s another round up of what’s currently going on:


According to these dipshits, it’s okay to hit your kids, but supporting their transgender identity is child abuse.
