Rainbow Ideology

The Trump administration is asking the Supreme Court to allow the Pentagon to remove 29 transgender service members from the military, arguing that federal courts are improperly interfering with the military’s authority to determine who is eligible to serve.

Solicitor General John Sauer urged the justices to take up the case before a trial scheduled for January, describing the dispute as a matter of “exceptional importance.”

“The authority of the U.S. military to determine who may serve in the Nation’s armed forces is a matter of exceptional importance,” Sauer wrote in the government’s petition.

The dispute involves a Trump administration policy restricting military service by individuals with a history or diagnosis of gender dysphoria.

The Supreme Court last year allowed the administration to implement the policy while litigation continued. But in a separate lawsuit, U.S. v. Talbott, lower courts prevented the Pentagon from discharging the individual service members challenging the policy.

Sauer called that decision “gravely erroneous” and argued that it conflicts with Supreme Court precedent requiring substantial judicial deference to military decision-making.

HARRISBURG, Pennsylvania (LifeSiteNews) — Pennsylvania Democrat Gov. Josh Shapiro is moving to update the state’s health code by replacing terms denoting females with gender-neutral language, underscoring the woke reality beneath the moderate image sometimes attributed to the governor.

The Daily Wire reports that the governor’s proposed updates, which span more than 500 pages, replace instances of “woman” with “individual” and refer to new mothers as “postpartum individuals,” ostensibly to leave room to recognize the ultimately-fictional concept of “pregnant men” – as explained by a notorious 2021 opinion from the left-wing American College of Gynecologists and Obstetricians that “Some postpartum [so-called] transgender individuals may not identify as ‘mothers;’ thus, obstetrician–gynecologists and other health care professionals should be mindful of the language they use.”

“Somehow, in the midst of hundreds of pages of new government mandates, the department also found it necessary to erase words like ‘pregnant woman’ and ‘mother’ in the regulations and replace them with terms like ‘pregnant individual,’” responded Republican state Sen. Michele Brooks.

“The changing of language in the regulations represents the triumph of ideology over biology,” said Independence Law Center chief counsel Randall Wenger. “This change of language doesn’t reflect reality; it obscures it. It erases female identity as a stable category in favor of a fluid concept of gender. The Shapiro administration is so concerned with affirming transgender identity that it can no longer recognize the realities of biological sex. The department cannot pretend to fight dangerous diseases with its delusions about gender.”

The Trump administration asked the U.S. Supreme Court on Friday to consider the legality of its policy effectively barring trans-identifying individuals from serving in the military.

In its petition, the Department of Justice (DOJ) requested the high court to determine whether the War Department’s rule that “generally disqualifies” those who have “gender dysphoria, a history of the condition, or a history of related interventions” violates the “equal-protection component” of the Fifth Amendment’s due process clause. The filing was made by U.S. Solicitor General John Sauer, who often represents the administration in oral arguments before the court.

At issue is a February 2025 Pentagon memo establishing guidance implementing such a policy. The directive came as part of the agency’s compliance with President Trump’s January 2025 executive order ordering War Secretary Pete Hegseth to revise the military’s policy on gender dysphoric individuals serving within 60 days the order’s implementation.

Upon request from trans-identifying individuals, D.C. District Judge Ana Reyes, a Biden appointee with a laundry list of left-wing activism, issued a preliminary injunction in March 2025 blocking the policy from taking effect. A three-judge panel for the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals later temporarily paused that order in December 2025.

Despite the U.S. Supreme Court pausing a similar injunction by a different district court on the policy in May 2025, a different D.C. Circuit panel upheld a portion of Reyes’ injunction in June. In a 2-1 ruling, the Democrat-appointed majority held “that the government could not enforce the ban against the challengers who were already in the military,” as described by SCOTUSblog.

A top Trump administration healthcare official has labeled doctors who push children into gender transitions and then abandon them to the devastating consequences “wolves in white coats.”

On August 22, Adm. Brian Christine, assistant secretary for health, went on NTD News and discussed the new Health and Human Services crackdown on fraudulent insurance coding for “sex-rejecting procedures” on minors. There are millions of dollars in the gender transition industry, which is why quite a few woke doctors and medical professionals are happy to encourage it. But when the kids realize they can never be the opposite sex and want to reverse the so-called treatments, the dishonest doctors simply drop them and move on. The surgeries are irreversible, and so is the regret.

Adm. Christine explained that Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s HHS team actually took the time to talk to parents and children who regret the procedures they accepted in pursuit of transgender ideology. Instead of mocking or ignoring detransitioners, the Trump administration is giving them a voice.

“We also heard again and again from these children and their families, is that when they had decided, and and you alluded to this, when they had decided ‘no, I made a mistake. I’ve been led down this path, but …this isn’t right, I want to stop my treatment, and I want to try to detransition and go back.’ They were virtually abandoned by the same wolves in white coats who led them down this pathway, they were abandoned, which, again, is heartbreaking, is heartbreaking to hear.”

WASHINGTON, D.C. (LifeSiteNews) – The U.S. Department of Health & Human Services (HHS) released a report Thursday identifying millions of dollars in insurance claims that billed for underage gender “transition” procedures under false pretenses.

The 64-page report, Wolves in White Coats: How Doctors and Hospitals Pushed and Profited from the Fraud of “Gender Medicine,” examined more than 225 hospitals and health systems nationwide that offer pediatric gender programs by reviewing scientific literature, hospital records, whistleblower accounts, insurance claims, and interviews with patients and their parents.

It found “approximately $50 million in insurance claims for puberty blockers billed using endocrine disorder diagnostic code E34.9 (Endocrine Disorder, Unspecified). It further reported that nearly $11 million in claims for patients ages 13-17 were billed using a diagnosis code for precocious puberty E301 — findings the report said warrant additional review of insurance coding practices,” according to an HHS press release. The report called for greater oversight and review of insurance billing and coding practices as well as further evaluation of “gender medicine” policies.

Transgender care for U.S. service members and minor dependents exploded under the Biden administration, documents obtained exclusively by the Daily Caller News Foundation show.

“Gender dysphoria” patient counts jumped roughly 82% during President Joe Biden’s first year in office, according to internal Defense Health Agency (DHA) records. The documents identify 17,596 unique patients in a DHA gender dysphoria dataset from 2014 to 2022, including 3,807 patients under 18.

The documents were originally obtained by the Center to Advance Security in America (CASA) through Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) litigation and provided to the DCNF. (RELATED: Air Force Doc Appeared To Reassure Medical Staff They Couldn’t Be Sued For Sex Changes On Minors)

A mother and her daughter paid $1,000 apiece for tickets to Monday’s Indiana Fever vs. Atlanta Dream game at State Farm Arena in Atlanta.

They came specifically to watch Sophie Cunningham, the only player in the woke WNBA with the courage to speak biological truth out loud and stand against men invading women’s sports.

They showed up wearing XX/XY shirts in open support of that stance. The back of the daughter’s shirt delivered a simple, unambiguous message: “For the girls.”

They say arena staff confronted them over their clothing and gave them two choices: Cover their shirts or leave, according to Adam Francisco. They were handed oversized shirts to throw on over their own clothes like they were the problem.

Outkick reporter Jon Root said, “During OT, a security guard told them they had to put provided Atlanta Dream shirts over their shirts or they would be escorted out…”
