(assuming we can still call them trannies)

https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/supreme-court-upholds-state-laws-banning-transgender-girls-and-women-from-school-sports

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court on Tuesday upheld state laws barring transgender girls and women from playing on school athletic teams, in another setback for transgender people.

The court's conservative majority, which has repeatedly ruled against transgender Americans in the past year, ruled that state bans in Idaho and West Virginia don't violate the Constitution or the federal law known as Title IX, which prohibits sex discrimination in education

It was always obvious that Republicans and Republican justices were partisan first and foremost

Posted by DT <iframe src='https://mb.boardhost.com/TheDeuce/info/user=DT' width='330' height='300' border=0 style='border:none;'> on June 30, 2026, 15:49:04, in reply to "Amazing what the Republican party has become"

Textualism and judicial restraint and federalism were not actual beliefs that were held or applied in any intellectually honest way. They were solely instrumental positions, adopted because they produced the desired outcomes. The instant there was a conflict between philosophy and the interests of the party, all schools of judicial thought were instantaneously jettisoned.

I mean, the current court is happily eviscerating the foundational principle of the Constitutional order, divided government, in order to serve Trump more faithfully. The upholding of birthright citizenship is a limited and temporary bowing to the crystal clear text of the Constitution and the remaining very faint glimmers of conscience that a few of the Republican judges still have. But soon enough Roberts will convince himself that he can kick that over as well, or another more modern and even less principled Republican will join the bench and render his very occasional spasms of honesty against the desires of the party moot.
