Very thankful for this letter to Becky Pepper-Jackson (the 16 year-old trans girl SCOTUS ruled against yesterday) from James Dale, a gay man whose expulsion from the Boy Scouts was upheld by the Supreme Court in 2000.

Because this is a brand-destroying action by Senate Dems.

Firing and demoralizing feminized jobs as enemies of the state while brazenly bribing men with violent jobs that almost instantly puts them into the middle of middle class is very basic gendered warfare. Fulfilling the manosphere’s promise.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

NEW: SCOTUS allows Trump admin to send eight men to South Sudan with no process. Sotomayor, joined by Jackson, dissented, calling their colleagues' actions in the case "indefensible." It was one of several alarming signs for the nation on the Third of July. This evening, at Law Dork:

1. In a devastating ruling out of the 11th Circuit, a trans female teacher will be forced to use "Mr." in the classroom in accordance with Florida law. Trump appointed judges ruled that this is not somehow a first amendment violation. The dissent is scathing. Subscribe to support our journalism.

11th Circuit Rules Trans Teacher Must Misgender Herself In Classroom In Accordance With FL Law
The ruling by Trump-appointed judges contradicts other classroom speech cases and is a clear case of the state barring disfavored speech, according to the dissent.

It’s a terrible bill. It will literally kill people. The most vulnerable among us will suffer as the wealthiest benefit. It’s perverse. I wish there were something I could do. But alas, I am only a U.S. Senator from Alaska whose “no” vote would kill the bill. So I voted yes. You get it.

“No worries, class actions are available.” “Ok can everyone join” “Well, no” “So it’s a constitutional right and some people won’t get remedies” “well, depends on the circuit” “Um. So if you’re in the right circuit…” “And the administration follows circuit precedent…” “Wait, what?”

It’s possible that I’m missing stuff, but I don’t get the sense that the people complaining about the injunction decision “don’t get it.” As if, once given all the details and walked through them by law professors, they’ll see it’s not so bad. I think they get it and agree with the dissenters.

If you're a Democrat saying don't be "weak and woke" you're just announcing that you're the former. Weak, sniveling, willing to take messaging direction from Republicans rather than stick their heads on figurative spikes
