Summary

The Supreme Court, led by Chief Justice John Roberts, appears poised to uphold Tennessee’s ban on gender-affirming care for minors, signaling a pivotal moment for transgender rights.

Roberts, citing state authority over medical decisions, compared the case to his 2015 dissent in Obergefell v. Hodges, where he opposed judicial intervention on same-sex marriage.

Conservative justices emphasized minimal judicial scrutiny, while liberal justices, including Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan, warned of harm to transgender youths.

The case underscores broader tensions over constitutional protections versus legislative authority in regulating trans rights.

    MAGA is just another word for NAZI

    I don’t care what anyone says. They are the same.

    A MAGA is a NAZI. A NAZI is a MAGA.

      Yep. That’s what I’ve been saying since about 2015. Anyone putting on one of those fucking hats might as well be donning some SS gear.
