Texas Judge Rules That It's Okay To Harass LGBTQ+ People - The Logical Leftist



In a controversial ruling, a Texas judge has declared that Transgender Americans have no right to protection from workplace harassment. On Thursday, Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk, appointed by Trump, issued a decision stating that Title VII no longer safeguards LGBTQ+ individuals from discrimination in the workplace. This ruling comes after a lawsuit filed by the Heritage Foundation and the state of Texas aimed at challenging existing non-discrimination laws. In this video, host Jeff Waldorf from Logically Left dives deep into the implications of this ruling for LGBTQ+ Americans and examines how it aligns with Project 2025's broader agenda to undermine transgender rights. Join us as we unpack the legal ramifications and the potential impact on the lives of countless individuals.

... is an unspeakably vile excuse for a human being. In any civilized state, he would be removed from the bench and disbarred. In Abbott's Texas, he's a hero. A sick, twisted, and depraved gargoyle to the good people of the Lone Star State, but a hero to those who delight in bullying those who don't conform to the Mr.Macho Jockstrap mentality.
