S&G: On Thursday, U.S. District Judge Louis Guirola Jr. struck down a Biden-era rule that expanded Title IX discrimination protections to gender identity. Guirola’s ruling states, “In the opinion of the Court, Congress only contemplated biological sex when it enacted Title IX in 1972. Therefore, the Court finds that [Biden’s] HHS exceeded its authority by implementing regulations redefining sex discrimination and prohibiting gender-identity discrimination.”

SCIENCE: Last week, SCOTUS rejected Anthony Boyd’s final appeal, allowing Alabama to carry out his death sentence by administering pure nitrogen gas. The three liberals on our highest court – Sotomayor, Kagan, and Jackson – dissented from the majority as shown in the excerpt above.
The problem with their dissent is that it is based on the idea that breathing pure nitrogen is a painful way to die. Scientists say it is carbon dioxide buildup that triggers the feeling of suffocation referenced in the justice’s dissent. Inhaling pure nitrogen causes only some dizziness and confusion before quickly causing unconsciousness and death.
In fact, breathing pure nitrogen is allegedly such a simple and painless way to die that a euthanasia advocate invented a device called a “Sarco pod” (sarco being short for sarcophagus) to allow people to commit suicide painlessly.

SHUTDOWN: On Thursday, the Senate held its most recent vote on a bill to guarantee paychecks for active-duty service members, air traffic controllers, border patrol agents, and other federal employees required to work during the shutdown. The measure needed 60 votes to pass. Three Democrats—Sens. John Fetterman (Pa.), Jon Ossoff (Ga.), and Raphael Warnock (Ga.)—joined Republicans in support, along with Independent Sen. Angus King (Maine).
On Friday, President Trump told reporters, “A friend of mine, a man that’s great, I’m not going to use his name unless he lets me do it … He called us the other day and said, ‘I’d like to contribute any shortfall you have because of the Democratic shutdown … with the military … if there’s a shortfall I’ll contribute.’ And today he sent us a check for $130 million … that’s what I call a patriot.”
SWITZERLAND: Article 261bis of the Swiss Criminal Code was enacted in 1995 to prohibit the dissemination of ideas based on race, ethnicity, or religion that degrade human dignity. In 2020, it was expanded to include sexual identities.
In December 2022, Emanuel Brünisholz posted the above to social media. Activists reported him. The courts fined him US$600. He lost on appeal and was fined an additional US$750. He refused to pay, so they tossed him in the pokey for ten days.
