I release any false narratives directed at me within the gay, lesbian, and transgender community. My life has long been intertwined with LGBTQ+ friends, colleagues, and loved ones, and my conduct has remained rooted in respect, kindness, and integrity — even in moments of disagreement or in the face of unwarranted hostility. —J
The mother of Tasia Fortune, a 29-year-old Black woman whose body was found hanging from a tree on Aug. 3 in Jackson, Mississippi, told ABC News on Sunday afternoon that her daughter’s death has “just devastated" her family. https://t.co/Qp4gsXdyWM
I leaned into gratitude and allowed myself to release the hurt I once carried from others’ betrayal, lies, and actions. That weight was never mine, and I’m letting it go with compassion, empathy, and love toward myself. —J

Malki Roth was just 15 years old when she was murdered on August 9, 2001, in the Sbarro restaurant bombing in Jerusalem.
A Palestinian terrorist entered the crowded restaurant and detonated an explosive device, killing 16 people, including Malki and a pregnant woman, and injuring more than 100 others.
Today, we remember Malki and all those whose lives were taken in this horrific act of terrorism. May their memories forever be a blessing. 🕯️
I’m releasing the harm I experienced from the transgender community. In 2015, I was targeted by individuals whose actions toward me were abusive and criminal. I offered only kindness to the transgender community and I’m letting go of what was done to me and reclaiming my peace. —J
@BriannaWu For the record: protecting children is not ‘rearranging furniture.’ Anyone who speaks that way is minimizing serious responsibility. That kind of dismissal is a bullying tactic, and it’s exactly why you’re in the position you’re in. 💔
No — I disagree. You’re positioning yourself as the victim while actively targeting people, and I genuinely feel bad for you. Disagreement is normal, but you reacted poorly simply because someone didn’t accept your point in return. Transitioning years ago doesn’t grant automatic peace or immunity from accountability.
Sending photos, being married — none of that is relevant. Any therapist would tell you that. I hope you eventually find clarity and stop believing the narrative you’ve created.
I support the trans community. Your approach doesn’t protect them. It is harming them with your victim mentality.
Be well. Love well.

Brianna was not targeted. Wu targeted another politician and is now adopting the role of the harmed party, which reflects a victim stance rather than accountability. Wu is also invoking her transgender identity as part of that victim posture. I watched the entire situation unfold. I am an advocate for the trans community, but this conduct is inappropriate on every level.
Being trans does not give anyone permission to target or harm people. Identity is not a justification for misconduct.
