I agree, if you mean the headline gives a sense of finality. Reuters probably cast it that way to dispirit opponents of trangenders participating in women’s sports.

Amazing how clueless and easily manipulated by headlines people are. The SC didn’t decide anything. They basically said, “not baked enough to get to us yet”.

Trump got a lot of praise at Free Republic for the number of federal judges he got confirmed.

About 70% of the Trump Circuit (Appellate) judges look like solid Conservatives.

However, I thought the Trump District judge record was a train wreck.

From memory - 60% of his District Court nominees were confirmed with at least 20 Democrat votes or by voice vote.

Trump had a list of Federalist Society approved judges he went by. I suspect he is little informed himself on the merits or demerits of any of them.

Exactly.

The knee-jerk reactions here are more and more juvenile. FR was once a place of informed readers

What happens when the High school boys soccer team that beat the US womens team declare they are a womens team?

Or a lowly ranked male tennis player joins the female pro tennis tour. Will there be enough popcorn?

Would any absurdity be enough to stop this nonsense?

When the women become angry then something will be done.


But they won’t. Their god is maintaining the ability to kill babies. This doesn’t move the needle on that issue, so they’ll conveniently ignore the ‘women’s rights’ aspect of this travesty.

Yep, imputing a seal of approval that at least so far the USSC hasn’t given.

Maybe some women but not all women want to kill babies. The media lies. But therein lays the problem also regarding elections ….. the media lies

What ‘kneejerk’ reactions would that be? Do you disagree with Justices Alito and Thomas that this case should have moved forward at SCOTUS?

The Supreme Court didn’t rule either way on the case.

The Supreme Court said the case has to go through the normal appeals process. The Supreme Court seldom grants emergency appeals, otherwise they’d have to take up thousands of additional cases every session.

Wow. The article doesn’t even hint that that’s the case. I believe you.

Do what NY is doing with gun laws the court previously ruled unconstitutional, do them anyway.
NY had its concealed carry permit scheme thrown out, in response it decided to implement something even dumber.
In response WV should just do it anyway.

"The knee jerk reaction seems to be that the Supreme Court has ruled in favor of all this transgender Sports business."

Not so much.

The spineless sc judges ruled against the WV trans in high school sports ban.

Thus continuing affecting actual, real girls.

I prefer the more accurate term Frankensexuals.

Interesting how Reuters makes it out like Justice’s Alito and Thomas just sat this one out and didn’t say anything.
