Appeals court rules against transgender military ban

A divided panel of appeals court judges has ruled that a Trump administration policy illegally banned transgender troops from military service. Monday's majority opinion by a three-judge panel from the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia circuit partially upholds a March 2025 ruling by U.S. District Judge Ana Reyes in Washington. Reyes concluded that President Donald Trump’s executive order to exclude transgender troops from military service likely violates their constitutional rights. The administration appealed after Reyes issued a preliminary injunction requested by attorneys for six transgender people who are active-duty service members and two others seeking to join the military.

Supreme Court rules against Colorado ban on LGBTQ+ ‘conversion therapy’

The Supreme Court has ruled against a law banning “conversion therapy” for LGBTQ+ kids in Colorado, one of about two dozen states that banned the discredited practice. The high court majority sided Tuesday with a Christian counselor who argues the law banning talk therapy violates the First Amendment. The justices agreed the law raises free speech concerns and sent it back to a lower court to decide if it meets a legal standard few laws pass. President Donald Trump’s Republican administration supported the counselor. Colorado said the measure simply bars a practice of using therapy to try to “convert” LGBTQ+ people to heterosexuality, a practice that’s been scientifically discredited and linked to serious harm.

Have you ever noticed how the tRumpublicans & Conservative Christians are obsessed with Sex? They think that Trans people will sexually assault them in the bathroom or locker room. They believe that Trans people are sexual deviants. But, it's always a tRumpublican politician or Conservative Pastor that is guilty of such crimes. #transgenderrights #transkids #TransgenderVeterans #lgbtqia
