In reply to the discussion: Florida courts could take 'emergency' custody of kids with trans parents or siblings [View all]ancianita
(43,308 posts)48. I'm not just talking about them. I'm including the whole federal system. You're not
looking at the bigger picture. Not all cases end up in the SCOTUS, you know.
One huge group of wins were the 61+ over state election challenges in 2020.
But that doesn't indicate what courts would do when minors' civil rights and parental rights are challenged.
Thing is, on this topic, I'm not going to do the bulk of the homework on court rulings -- not duckin', but it's kinda late in the day and I'm not up for the challenge. You might, though.

I hear you loud and clear. It's a money war. But they underestimate this administration, DOJ, ACLU

I hope you are right. All the Biden administration & ACLU can do is take them to court.

I doubt the courts will fail us. The SCOTUS has such low polling it might actually do its job
