Transgender girls have a biological advantage at... winning homecoming queen? That's apparently what Clayton County Public Schools in Georgia believes. They have blocked a transgender girl from running for homecoming queen in her high school Subscribe to support our journalism.

To recap: three GOP-led states that wanted the Supreme Court to overturn Roe v. Wade in order to "send abortion back to the states" are now asking the Court to strike down abortion protections in blue states

It was so fun this year to watch the Lynx reinvent their team from last year and not miss a beat. Olivia Miles is electric and a rising star. Seeing new players like Howard, Caldwell, and Brodie succeed and continue the culture is inspiring. K-Mac hit 10 threes in one game and I was there!

Lynx gonna become the first top overall seed in WNBA history to not win a single playoff game. Got some serious questions to answer this offseason.

What an embarrassing first half for the Lynx after a dreadful second half last game. No energy, no plan on offense besides hoping jump shots fall or that the Liberty’s taller interior players will not try to defend the paint. Completely earned their double digit deficit.

Man, the WNBA product just seems to get better and better. Every team has to really bring the energy and focus, because the competition is on your heels every second.

Olivia miles is pretty clearly hampered by her calf injury. Hesitant to explode or use her lower body aggressively. That’s gonna be a real problem for the Lynx offensive flow.

WSJ Exclusive: The Trump admin used federal funds from the Department of Homeland Security to finance those controversial pro-Trump ads that started airing on TV. The taxpayer money used to fund the ads came from U.S. Customs and Border Protection.

A phenomenal moment in the Senate. Eric Schmitt, R-Mo., claims he has evidence Jack Smith went to a HAWKS game in Atlanta. Smith denies it. Schmitt declares he has busted Jack Smith for perjury. Smith, vexed, says he went to HAWKEYES game in Maryland. WATCH IN FULL, UNINTERRUPTED

Please consider supporting our @jsteyz.bsky.social's research by taking this survey at tinyurl.com/ucwomenfans They're looking for "Women who identify as women's sport fans"
WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF THIS RESEARCH STUDY?
The purpose of this study is to examine the impact of witnessing digital body-based abuse directed at women athletes, coaches, and sports personnel. Specifically, we evaluate how exposure to this abuse within women's sport fandom spaces affects women fans, focusing on body surveillance, self-image, and their overall sense of belonging.

WHO WILL BE IN THIS RESEARCH STUDY?
Women who identify as women's sport fans will be recruited on social media fan pages (e.g., Reddit). Approximately 300 participants are being recruited. Participants must be at least 18 years old.

When they get back in power, Democrats need to go all-in on higher education. We need a campaign of reinvestment in public universities across the country that makes the Morrill Land-Grant Act look like nothing by comparison *and* a GI Bill of Rights-style program of tuition grants.

You know when public attention can reverse a prosecutorial decision like this you almost get the sense that the decision to shrug it off in the first place was not based on an assessment of the quality of the evidence so much as an assessment of the seriousness of the crime.

The glam feature photo here doesn't do the story justice. This is a well-written and researched story. It is instructive for people who don't have any idea who Fuentes, groypers, etc. are, providing an avenue to learn more about these insidious people. And it's definitely not sympathetic
