Federal Judge Lee Rosenthal just issued an order blocking Texas A&M University from canceling a drag show on campus because, according to her, Trump's Executive Order "cannot override First Amendment Protections."

"Nothing in the Draggieland performance offends the executive order the Board cites. No male performer in the drag show is stating an intent to become a woman. Nor does the Board point to evidence in the record establishing that the president’s executive order on “biological truth” specifically refers or applies to drag shows."

"The court grants the motion for a preliminary injunction. The Board is enjoined from enforcing the ban. The Draggieland performance scheduled for March 27, 2025, in the Rudder Theatre, may proceed as originally scheduled."

That’s two today that I know of.

“Draggieland”! At first I thought that was some derisive remark from someone like me.

G.H.W. Bush

[yuleeyahoo]

I didn’t know that drag shows were about giving speeches.

[Resolute Conservative]

Sad that A&M is slowly becoming UT.

Block federal funding. Another self appointed Queen.

[Palio di Siena]

Duh.
Aggies - Draggies
Sick

[Magnum44]

A&M can do what they want, just without tax dollars.

[cgbg]

The creepy leftists have chosen the pervert hill to die on.

[Carl Vehse]

She’s batcrap crazy. Time to send in the men in white coats to put this judge in a straitjacket and take her to the loony bin.

[FlingWingFlyer]

Every clown out there is trying to get into the act these days. We need to impeach ALL OF THEM.

There was no reason to cancel it in the first place. It was an example of malicious compliance. It was for adults in an adult venue and was not part of the curriculum or other official act of the Uni.

[McGavin999]

Let them come. Just turn out the lights and lock the doors. Let them “perform” outside in the dark

[Texas Fossil]

Texas A&M will never be like UT.

Aggie Alumns will see to that. Yes, I know that A&M is not like it was when my father went there. He died 3 year ago at 94. Was a WWII Vet. And always an Aggie. (he did not graduate from A&M, too busy with a family.)

[READINABLUESTATE]

“cannot override First Amendment Protections.”

I suppose she allows protests in her court room then.

[goodnesswins]

Then they can find another venue...not a public university getting fed funds

[Antoninus]

Right. So men dancing around in women's clothing is "free speech" but you can't allow a conservative speaker on campus because it's offensive and dangerous.

It's pretty obvious what's going on here.

[MayflowerMadam]

I wish the very worst for these judges and their families at the hands of perverts and illegals. I know that’s terribly wrong, but how else can they understand the evils?

[DownInFlames]

Freedom of expression is not limited to speeches.

[oil_dude]

‘Contributing to the delinquency of a minor’ used to be a chargeable crime, I think this falls into that camp

[13Sisters76]

So maybe they put on their “show”?
And maybe regular people start showing up to laugh at, shame and heckle them?
Perhaps public shaming will get them to STFU?
