It’s a liberal conundrum.
If it is a mental illness then it’s covered.
If it’s ‘normal’ then it’s not........................
I am prepared to declare myself a woman, if the money is good.
We know three will vote in favor. Eyes are on Roberts to see which way he swings.

Under current, when legislatures pass law, it goes to the bureacracie3s for interpretation and application. After that it is supposed to go back to the legislature for final approval before implementation.
Trump removed many rules this way because the law was not followed.
I wonder if the supreme court will think about this?
If SCOTUS finds it does get covered, I look forward to seeing drag queens and trannies in the handicapped parking spots.
Justice Jackson has no idea what a woman is.
If we have judges who dont know what a man is or what a woman is, how can they even be a judge in such a case?
Ketanji Brown Jackson says she doesn’t know what a woman is.

Roberts has been compromised by the Deep State.
He will do whatever he is instructed to do.
We know it won’t be. You will have to take a pay cut. Women who claim to be men get a pay raise.
I have declared myself Bill Gates’ son. Where’s the money?
“Ketanji Brown Jackson”

Unfortunately, since the American Psychiatric Association has legitimized it as a diagnosis, and it has been given a DSM Code, I don’t know how they can NOT include it.
