It’s like they can’t help being assholes.
Texas can’t secede fast enough, maybe we can get a twofer with florida
Oh hey, it’s this asshole. This guy is the reason I reacted to that news about making all court rulings only apply locally with some humorous positivity. (also because humor helps me cope with general awfulness)
The hypocritical Republican activist judge of course.
How Christian of them.
Seems to me that if you can discriminate on gender identity and sexual orientation, you should be able to discriminate on any basis at all. Maybe next time this asshole goes out to dinner, he should be served like the little bitch he is. Bring his food and drink in pet bowls and remove his silverware.
They would wholeheartedly agree with you because they can buy their way out of discrimination and we can’t.
Yeah like would not this mean that we couldst nowen discriminate against cishet people?
Most welcome tidings, twere it not for the inverse of such.
How long until straight men will be fired, or at least yelled at, for supposedly being gay for not risking their lives at work?
My work photo is my brother-in-law and I posing in tuxes at his and my sister’s wedding
Objectively, I look super gay in the photo
I haven’t changed it because I’m waiting for the homophobe to yell at the straight guy for his gay-looking photo
Oh I’m sure it’ll be soon. That’s an excellent cover to essentially abuse workers.
The fuck??? 🖕🇺🇸🖕♾️
average Texas moment
Page 21 of the ruling:
First, the Enforcement Guidance contravenes Title VII’s plain text by expanding the scope of “sex” beyond the biological binary: male and female. Although Title VII defines “sex” to also include “pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions,” §2000e(k), the Enforcement Guidance concludes that “sex” under Title VII "includes ‘pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions’ and sexual orientation and gender identity." Enforcement Guidance, §I(A)(5) (emphasis added). Notably, the Guidance uses quotation marks around “pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions”—but not “sexual orientation” or “gender identity.” Because neither the plain text of Title VII nor Supreme Court precedent defines Title VII “sex” this broadly. Thus, the Enforcement Guidance lacks statutory or jurisprudential authority to expand Title VII’s definition of “sex” to include these new categories.
Interestingly, this also seems to provide a legal basis to discriminate against straight people and cis people. It’ll be interesting to see how Republicans attempt to close that extra loophole without also closing the loophole for discrimination against LGBTQ people.
No, they absolutely can help being assholes. But for them it’s not enough to win, those they see as “losers” must suffer.
Relax. Its not great but this is one of those judges the government always puts there shit in front of. We should do work to get him removed but this will hopefully be brought down in the courts which so far haven’t been totally useless
It’s amazing how just a few months ago the people’s option on the courts was at an all-time low. Now because President Trump has caused so much chaos they’re more popular than ever.
It’s the difference between getting stabbed and getting your arm degloved. Sure getting stabbed sucks but getting your arm degloved is far far worse.
He’s not a judge - he’s a right wing mouthpiece playing to goddists. What a piece of shit.
You know what isn’t protected in the US? Political affiliation.
Start denying MAGA trash employment and service.
This man’s such a piece of shit even Tyndale didn’t want to stick around.
