useful to remind people that "if they go for A then they'll go for B next" is just a half truth. what actually happens is they attempt to leverage B against A then when A is rightless & policed by B, they'll leverage C against B. it's the assumption that B is untouched but B is Recruited Against A

tbh, the US supreme court not budging on gay marriage is great, but also this happening while codifying anti-abortion and anti-trans laws is either strategic in the face of opposition or an example of the project of homonationalist integration, at a time where fascist parties have cis LGB leaders

IOC funding a study a year ago that showed trans women do not have an advantage over cis women in sports and may in fact have a disadvantage due to T suppression and now moving to ban trans women & intersex women while keeping israel around and starting the genital inspections anyway

Just in case you thought this was about trans athletes. This was solely about creating a fascist and racist gender bureaucracy over what constitutes being feminine enough to be considered a woman.
They're targeting cis women who may be intersex and banning them from sport.

#BREAKING: Justice Jackson has issued an "administrative" stay, temporarily pausing a district court order that would've required the USDA to continue using contingency funds to pay SNAP benefits.
The stay expires 48 hours after the First Circuit rules on USDA's request for a stay pending appeal.

Trump administration asks Supreme Court to block order on releasing SNAP benefits
A federal judge had directed the administration to release full benefits for November. The administration is appealing the order.
Trump is going all the way to SCOTUS to starve 40 million people. I'm sure the court will say that somehow Trump not being able to starve children is a greater injury than starving children for... reasons.

The 6th Circuit has been competing to be the most anti-trans circuit in America and is now carving out a right to bully transgender kids.
Despicable.

As if the SCOTUS decision wasn't bad enough, the 6th circuit said "hold my beer" and explicitly created a constitutional right to bully trans kids who are already at tremendous risk of self harm and suicide.
These judges want dead trans kids.

A scanned Supreme Court of the United States order, dated November 6, 2025, in the case Donald J. Trump, President of the United States, et al. v. Ashton Orr, et al., No. 25A319. The document discusses an Executive Branch policy requiring passports to display an individualโs biological sex at birth. The highlighted passage reads: โDisplaying passport holdersโ sex at birth no more offends equal protection principles than displaying their country of birthโin both cases.โ The Court grants the governmentโs application for a stay at this preliminary stage, reasoning that the government is likely to succeed on the merits and that the policy does not violate equal protection principles.
SCOTUS has granted a stay in Trump v. Orr, the trans passport case, meaning that the government will be able to once again deny gender marker changes to trans passport applicants.
This is a terrible decision with horrifying consequences for trans folks.
