Supreme Court Makes SHOCK RULING for now…
Pragmatic Optimism: Why Attacks on Trans Rights Threaten All LGBTQ Protections
Celebrate the denial of Kim Davis’s appeal only briefly; the real threat to LGBTQ rights is currently being litigated by the Supreme Court and targets the most marginalized in the community. Learn where to focus advocacy efforts for true protection.
Short Summary
- The perceived victory against Kim Davis attempting to overturn Obergefell is misplaced, as the petition faced standing issues and was unlikely to succeed.
- The actual legal battle focuses on the Supreme Court case Little v. Peacocks, concerning protections for trans athletes under the Equal Protection Clause.
- Attacks on the trans community serve as a vehicle for rolling back broader LGBTQ rights and threaten marginalized groups beyond gender and sexuality issues.
This discussion between Rachel Cohen and Tiara Mack pivots from the Kim Davis case to highlight more serious, active legal threats against the trans community (Little v. Peacocks and Trump v. Orr related rulings). They emphasize that protecting the most vulnerable is essential to securing rights for the entire LGBTQ spectrum.

Of course they target the trans community. It's always a religious, self-righteous attack on any less powerful and oppressed communities. The hypocrisy is so revolting.
It went all the way to the Supreme Court because of just one hateful government worker? Ridiculous.
CORRUPT SCOTUS, POTUS, DOJ & CONGRESS! SHAMEFUL!
Wasting tax payer money rehashing our rights . Disgusting Should make a law no going backwards.
Thank you ladies for covering this and talking about this subject.
Hitler targeted gay folks...that same spirit of hate is in the souls of those in this day who do the same. Americans need to speak out on the shadow docket! Anyways,
Is there an update on how the judges and lawyers protest at the Supreme Court went???
If churches get the opportunity to dictate our lives- they need to start paying TAXES for representation. For billion dollar entities that pay $0 to have control of our lives is unconstitutional. No taxation without representation can go both ways... no representation without taxation-this should also apply to billionaires getting the largest tax breaks.
There are ppl out there who seriously believe Trump lies like "Bobby went to school in the morning with a penis, but came home later as Brenda with a vagina." Stupidity, religion and bigotry are an issue from lawmakers down and I think the fight should be taken up with those who should have the intelligence to know better first. You can't fix stupid.
The Regime is anti human.. and certainly anti Christian. Corrupt to the core.. a cancer to society... it stems from Wealthy people living in abstraction.
