Every day there’s a bombshell coming out of the court system. But this one has left everyone’s jaws on the ground.
Because a rogue Ohio court just completely stunned the U.S. Supreme Court and caused national chaos.
Recently, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that they would be allowing the state of Idaho to start enforcing their duly passed law that would make it illegal for anyone in the state to administer “gender change” drugs to minors or give “gender change” operations to minors.
This seems like a common sense move for the U.S. Supreme Court. Even if you set aside the obvious legality of a state being allowed to legislate how they see fit to protect their own citizens, the vast majority of Americans believe that minors do not need to be given experimental puberty blocking drugs and other so-called “gender identity” affirming medical “treatments.”
According to a 2023 study from McLaughlin and Associates, 71 percent of American voters believe that anyone who helps administer puberty blocking drugs to minors should be held responsible for any and all negative side effects that may arise. This includes the drug manufacturers and the pharmaceutical companies as well.
Nearly 70% of all American voters believe minors shouldn’t be administered experimental puberty blocking drugs. When you isolate down to voters who are parents, that goes up to about 90%. So almost all parents in America believe that, of course, you shouldn’t be giving minors drugs that not even the drug manufacturers fully understand yet.
These drugs are only intended for instances where a child as young as 7 might be going through early onset puberty and it may threaten their life. Even then, as soon as the drugs have done their job to prevent life-threatening side effects of early onset puberty, the children are taken off of it.
Over in Ohio, the state legislature bravely passed a law that would make it illegal for anyone to be administering gender-change “treatments” to minors, similar to the law in Idaho. The so-called “Republican” Governor Mike DeWine vetoed that bill. However, the state legislature voted to override his veto and make the bill become law. It was a real shameful moment for Mike DeWine as he seemingly cared more about his popularity than protecting kids in his state.
The law, though, is still under attack. Just this week, an Ohio court ruled that they would be placing a temporary hold on the law from being enforced. Yes, another example of wacky court officials trying to take matters into their own hands rather than letting state legislatures do their job of legislating.
A Franklin County judge this week blocked the law after a lawsuit complaint came in that was filed by none other than the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU).
“Today’s ruling is a victory for transgender Ohioans and their families,” a lawyer for the ACLU said in a public statement.
“Ohio’s ban is an openly discriminatory breach of the rights of transgender youth and their parents alike and presents a real danger to the same young people it claims to protect,” they shared with reporters.

The law, which has not been struck down entirely yet but just put on hold, would also make it illegal for young men to compete in women’s sports even though they identify as a woman eligible for women’s sports. All K-12 and public school institutions would be forced to comply with this part of the law.
As for Mike DeWine, it was recently discovered that the RINO Governor has accepted tens of thousands of dollars in kickbacks from medical field “professionals” and hospitals that are openly in support of children transitioning to whatever gender they want. What kind of Republican does that? That’s not even remotely conservative.
As for the U.S. Supreme Court, it’s unlikely they will be able to ignore a blanket ruling on the transgender issue for too many more years as so many states are seeking to pass their own laws on the matter. Left and right, though, these laws are being challenged in court.
Sadly, more often than not, it’s the Republicans who are trying to pass laws to protect minors who don’t know any better who are being challenged in court.
This should be a cut and dry matter. Kids do not need to be given experimental puberty blocking drugs just because they told a therapist they “feel” like a member of the opposite gender.
It’s unimaginable how the United States can continue to remain split on this issue when it’s a matter of justice. Some radical Leftists believe it’s just “helping” children be who they think they are, whereas the rest of the nation sees it for what it is: preying on innocent children.
