A federal court rules that a bigot has a right to impose their anti-LGBTQ bigotry on orphans. Andrew breaks down the case, Bates v. Paakseresht, with Sam Grover, a constitutional attorney at the Freedom From Religion Foundation. The majority in this case essentially ignored the rights of children and focused solely on the rights of this Christian bigot, represented by ADF. Plus, a rapid fire round up of everything else that’s happening. 

Case discussed, Bates v. Paakseresht, (9th Cir., July 24, 2025). Link to the opinion.
