Another serious blow to the anti-science community:

From Daily Wire:

'In the opinion of the Court, Congress only contemplated biological sex when it enacted Title IX in 1972,' the judge wrote. 'Therefore, the Court finds that HHS exceeded its authority by implementing regulations redefining sex discrimination and prohibiting gender-identity discrimination.'

The rule had been put forth by the Biden administration on May 6, 2024.

...

'When it enacted Title IX, Congress's concern was prohibiting sex discrimination in education. It was particularly concerned with inequality that female students experienced. It did not at that time contemplate gender identity, transgender status, or "gender-affirming care,"' Guirola wrote.

Even though Trump's administration wasn't going to enforce this rule, the judge wanted to get rid of it so that it would be no longer enforceable.

Guirola said that since the rule was still in place, the 'threat of enforcement and legal action is real' and that the resolution of the legal questions at the heart of the suit would 'provide much-needed clarity.'

He said that the rule would have blocked state-created health benefit exchanges, recipients of Medicaid and Medicare, and others from denying transgender medical procedures.

Transgender devotees: If you want these protections for your fake science, you'll have to get it through Congress.
