B.P.J. ruling shows liberal lawsuits face a harsher Supreme Court reality

The Supreme Court ruled that states may bar transgender women from competing on women’s sports teams, signaling a hostile climate for liberal litigants and warning that even prior trans-right victories like Bostock may not translate to sports. The piece argues liberals should focus on political avenues to influence the judiciary and consider strategies to reshape the federal bench, as the Court under a Republican-leaning majority appears unlikely to expand trans rights in spaces involving sex distinctions.
