A federal judge blocked most of a law championed by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis ® that strictly limited transgender health care for adults and banned it completely for children.

In his decision, U.S. District Judge Robert L. Hinkle rejected a common mantra of the DeSantis administration, saying that “gender identity is real,” and that the state cannot deny transgender individuals treatment.

“Florida has adopted a statute and rules that ban gender-affirming care for minors even when medically appropriate,” Hinkle wrote. “The ban is unconstitutional.”

    even if Biden doesn’t do anything, there is a real possibility that if the other guy becomes president two old farts retire just before they die and let him appoint two more young demons to serve a lifetime.

    hell, they don’t even pretend to give a shit about democracy anyway, I’m not even sure they won’t kill one of the liberal justices.
