Exactly. Where is the modern day George Dale, a Muncie IN newspaper editor who spent his career exposing Klan members in the 1920s? blog.newspapers.library.in.gov/koo-koo-side...

18.06.2025 19:08 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0heartbreaking for TN youth, but let’s be clear about what this opinion does NOT do: greenlight other healthcare bans or anti-trans discrimination. It’s limited to equal protection claims re: healthcare for kids where there’s no animus or pretext for anti-trans discrim.

The court condemned these executive orders for discriminating, chilling protected speech, and more. Go team!

Dark blue graphic with white text that reads, Crucial Victory: Federal Judge Blocks Trump Admin’s Trans Military Service Ban".
Dark blue graphic with quote in white text that reads Today's preliminary injunction is a crucial victory for the thousands of transgender servicemembers who have been serving our country with honor and distinction. This decision affirms what we have long maintained: that banning Americans from military service solely because they are transgender is not only unconstitutional but undermines our national security and military readiness. These brave individuals deserve to be judged on their ability to serve, just like everyone else. While this injunction is an important step forward, we continue to fight until this discriminatory ban is permanently struck down." - Kell Olson, Counsel and F. Curt Kirschner Jr. Strategist for LGBTQ+ Seniors
👏 HUGE WIN: Today, a federal district court issued a nationwide preliminary injunction immediately blocking enforcement of the Trump administration’s executive order banning transgender people from enlisting or continuing to serve in the military.

My parents, both scientists, came from the UK to the US for jobs in the 60s at a time when the US offered greater opportunities. Now the brain drain will be from the US to universities elsewhere. Tragic.
