The Obama administration said that Title IX anti-discrimination protections should mean that transgender students had access to facilities of the gender with which they identified, like single-sex locker rooms and bathrooms.
In August, the Northern District of Texas federal court placed an injunction on the order and the Obama administration appealed.
On Friday, the Trump administration announced that it was dropping the appeal, saying the order “radically distorted” Title IX, which “was intended to equalize educational opportunities for women.”

In the course of my duties as the incoming National Security Advisor, I held numerous phone calls with foreign counterparts, ministers, and ambassadors. These calls were to facilitate a smooth transition and begin to build the necessary relationships between the President, his advisors and foreign leaders. Such calls are standard practice in any transition of this magnitude.
The CIA and the liberals must be so proud of themselves today, as General Flynn resigned from President Trump’s Team. He will no longer be there to protect the American people with his honesty and to advise President Trump, as he is going to need it. This is just the beginning of the attacks on Trump’s Team.
JUST LIKE THE JACKALS WHO FEED ON THE DEAD, SO DOES JUAN McSTAIN SHOW UP TO BASK IN THE MEDIA SPOTLIGHT
Senator Chuck Schumer, of all people, laid out on January 2 what was going to happen to the Trump administration if it dared take on the deep state – the permanent bureaucracy that has contempt for the will of the voters and feels entitled to run the government for its own benefit.
The president, after accepting Flynn’s resignation overnight, tweeted Tuesday morning that, “The real story here is why are there so many illegal leaks coming out of Washington?”
Retired Lt. Gen. Keith Kellogg served as the National Security Council chief of staff under Flynn and was tasked with overhauling the Defense Department under President Trump’s transition team.
The Senate confirmed Rex Tillerson as Secretary of State with 56 votes; Jeff Sessions as Attorney General with 52 votes; and Betsy DeVos, who barely reached a majority of 51 votes without Vice President Mike Pence’s deciding vote to confirm her as Secretary of Education.
Moments after the ruling, Trump tweeted, “SEE YOU IN COURT,” adding that “THE SECURITY OF OUR NATION IS AT STAKE!”
Senate Democrats flew a restaurant worker all the way from Los Angeles to Washington on Thursday, to help them portray President Trump’s nominee for Labor Secretary not only as “unqualified,” but also as someone who steals money from workers; looks the other way when workers are sexually harassed; forces people to work for free; punishes them for calling in sick; and fights against raising the minimum wage.
When Jeff Sessions was confirmed to be the 84th Attorney General of the United States Wednesday night, a vote was held to move Rep. Tom Price’s (R-GA) Health and Human Services nomination forward for a final vote. Around 2:15 A.M this morning Price was confirmed in a 52-47 vote.
Activists have targeted those Republicans who they believe have reservations about DeVos, particularly those from rural states, where alternatives to public schools — such as those promoted by DeVos — are few and far between. But other than Murkowski and Collins, no Republican has indicated that their support is shaky.
Before leaving for Houston where the game is being played Sunday night, Pence arrived at Andrews Air Force Base to escort two wounded U.S. veterans and their guests to the game with him and second lady Karen Pence.
IF ALL THE LEFTISTS WENT ON STRIKE FOR A DAY, WOULD ANYBODY NOTICE?
