"...a major hope is that the Supreme Court will finally issue a universally applicable ruling spelling out the biological definitions of sex. “ - Lierre Keith

Why did conservative ballot measures on transgender sports and medical procedures for minors pass in deep blue states?

@MiaCathell says it's mainly due to how the questions were phrased on the ballot.

"Elspeth Cypher, [WoLF Board President] a retired Massachusetts Supreme Court judge, said the justices could take up one of the three cases at issue, but the most important factor will be whether the lower court has a record defining “transgender status,” enabling them to make an informed decision."

“It is difficult to predict what will happen, but one of the reasons we wanted to represent women’s interest in Withrow is we do not have a clear definition of ‘transgender status’ as it is used in Bostock,” said Cypher. “That is not surprising because different definitions of transgender are used by the trans rights advocates.”

Thank you for your reporting, @MiaCathell

Good to see noted sports fan Amy Klobuchar help clear up the Hawks vs. Hawkeyes confusion

[Aaron Rupar @atrupar]

holy shit -- turns out Jack Smith went to a Hawkeyes game in Maryland but Schmitt's team is so reckless they concocted a conspiracy theory that Smith was actually in Atlanta seeing a Hawks game and colluding with Fani Willis. Klobuchar points out to Schmitt, "you have your teams wrong."

💰 GOFUNDJIHAD?

A woman raised $13K on this GoFundMe page for her husband "stuck" in war-torn Gaza to come to the US.

The couple is now charged with visa fraud after the DOJ said he joined the Oct. 7 attacks, was allowed in the country under Biden, and hung out in Louisiana until Israel tipped off US authorities that he is allegedly a terrorist.

The FBI warns this is part of a larger problem with fundraising sites.

Latest from @MiaCathell.

How much you wanna bet the media outlets fretting about "Christian nationalism" and "separation of church and state" will be totally crickets about this?

[Hudson Crozier 🇺🇸 @Hudson_Crozier]

DEEP DIVE: When undisputed killers plead insanity in Fairfax County, doctors for the defense AND prosecution often back their claims, leading judges to approve the pleas.

Soros-backed prosecutor Steve Descano’s team says his hands are tied if the government’s own experts corroborate the insanity defense.

So who is he picking for those evaluations?

[Hudson Crozier 🇺🇸 @Hudson_Crozier]

"Like many Americans, I think I wrestle with a lot of the decisions that the country made in response to 9/11, perhaps some good, some bad. But what it has shown me is at least, as a country, we debate and discuss those things and actually wrestle with them. And I hope that will continue to be one of the things that separates Americans from the kinds of people who will settle disputes by flying planes into buildings."

@dcexaminer staff put their hearts and souls into these tribute videos. We hope they're meaningful to you.

A former staffer who worked underneath Acton in the Ohio Health Department said she was a difficult boss to work for, exhibited frequent mood swings, took an abrasive approach that put people on the spot and “humiliated” them, and acted passive-aggressively toward subordinates who said something she disagreed with.

“It was a very passive-aggressive punitive place.”

The ex-staffer said that a group of former employees who have “PTSD after working with that woman” still get together for drinks years later to rehash those days under Acton.

Dr. Amy Acton, the Democratic nominee for Ohio governor, cried at work and was an emotionally volatile leader who struggled to handle the demands of the job, even pre-pandemic, while serving as the top health official in charge of leading Ohio’s COVID-19 response, according to sources who worked with her in the state government.

https://t.co/HS9FGHCD70

[Mia Cathell @MiaCathell]

In interviews with @dcexaminer, current and former state government workers, including staffers from the Ohio Health Department, governor’s office, and a career civil servant, described Acton’s conduct in the workplace as erratic and prone to emotional episodes, to the point that she was once allegedly found “curled up” into a ball on the hallway floor before one of the emergency response meetings and had to be coaxed out of a fetal-like position.

In another incident, an ex-health department staffer recalled Acton crying in the bathroom and having a full-blown nervous breakdown, allegedly saying she “can’t do this,” before she had to present the agency’s budget proposal in front of the state legislature.
