Welcome to today's edition of The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show podcast.

Welcome in The Clay Travis buck Sexton Show Wednesday edition. Appreciate all of you hanging out with us. I am in Washington, d C. Buck remains on the French rivi Era, meeting with all the advertisers, probably with I don't know what the rose. I don't know what the preferred drink of the French rivi era is, but as we speak it is evening in France, and I bet he's got a rose on the beach somewhere chatting with advertisers desperate to get into this show.

He has loved it, and I appreciate Senator.

He has loved it, and I appreciate Senator.

Haggerty for keeping he and his debate partner busy and learning a lot. So I will be back in Nashville tomorrow, but it has been an eventful time. I'm to be up here. By the way, the reason I'm going to be back is probably not going to shock you. The federal government, at least at Congress is shut for two days for the Juneteenth Holiday.

This is real. They are off Thursday and Friday.

This is real. They are off Thursday and Friday.

I got to have two days of not working because of the Juneteenth Holiday. So that is why we are headed back because Congress is going to be shut down and as a result, they are not going to be working on Capitol Hill.

And so yeah, I you know on my calendar.

And so yeah, I you know on my calendar.

I don't know about you, but I hadn't blocked off the Juneteenth holiday. I will be with all of you, not taking two days to celebrate Juneteenth, but we will.

I don't know about you, but I hadn't blocked off the Juneteenth holiday. I will be with all of you, not taking two days to celebrate Juneteenth, but we will.

We'll be back. I'll be back at Nashville on Thursday.

We'll be back. I'll be back at Nashville on Thursday.

And the reason I want to say, I'm back in Nashville, my home state, my home city. And I was proud this morning when I woke up and a major Supreme Court decision came down that we have talked about on this program. And I think it's not a revolutionary idea, it's not a crazy idea. But the state of Tennessee decided that miners would not be allowed to have their gender change. They would not allow this phrase gender affirming care.

To take place.

To take place.

They wouldn't let you if you're fourteen get your boobs chopped off. They wouldn't let you if you're fifteen or sixteen. I hate to be graphic, but get your penis chopped off because you think you're a girl, or more sadly, because your parents think that you are a boy or a girl in a different body.

They wouldn't allow.

They wouldn't allow.

You to get puberty blockers, which have been shown to sometimes sterilize people. And they wouldn't allow these surgeries which can and treatments which can. As I just mentioned, you're doing something at thirteen or fourteen years old that might keep you from growing up and having children one day. That is crazy, and I have been saying on this program for a very long time. Strip it away from this gender related issues. In most states, you cannot get your fourteen year old a tattoo legally without being prosecuted as a parent. And that doesn't even consider what your spouse might do to you. If I came back from Washington, DC and my son had an arm sleeve tattoo, I think my wife would murder me. I'm not kidding about it. He is seventeen. If I came back from Washington, DC and she was like, well, how did the internship how did you do being responsible for our oldest son for two weeks? And I said, well, it went great. And you know, we were out one night and I thought to myself, we should go into a tattoo parlor, and so I got him a full back tattoo. It looks awesome. I think she would murder me. I'm not even kidding. I think my wife would look at me, would turn, would walk into the closet, get the gun, come back and just shoot me and say you can't be trusted anymore.

And it would be prosecutable.

And it would be prosecutable.

Sometimes I feel like in this world in which we live in, we have forgotten that there were other generations before us, and they had some small measure of wisdom. And one of those elements of wisdom which everyone who has ever been a teenager before in life has come to as you get older, is yeah, lots of times teenagers are morons. It would probably be better if we didn't have them make a tremendous amount of life altering decisions at fourteen, fifteen, sixteen years old. What you think at fourteen is often not what you're gonna think at twe four, forty four, sixty four, And everybody out there listening right now, you're all nodding.

What you think at fourteen is often not what you're gonna think at twe four, forty four, sixty four, And everybody out there listening right now, you're all nodding.

As I have said for some time.

As I have said for some time.

Speaking as a former teenage boy, no one is dumber in the entire history of the world at any age than teenage boys. They think, and we used to think, we are the coolest people who ever, who have ever lived. No one has a larger sense of self regard and a lower sense of actual talent than a sixteen year old boy of any age at any point in history. You all know it, You've all seen it. And as a result, sixteen year old boys often make disastrous decisions. The most dangerous drivers on the planet sixteen year old boys. So we say, as a society, hey, you know what, let's try and limit some of the decisions that more on teenagers can make that might have incredibly devastating impact for them as adults. I'll give you some examples. We don't let kids even rent cars. I believe I am correct that you have to be twenty five years old to rent a car in most states in this country right now. We don't allow most I believe I'm correct on this too. We don't allow most eighteen year olds to rent hotel rooms because we don't trust what they might do in the hotel room. We don't let twenty year olds actually by beer in this country. Yet you're gonna tell me that a twelve or thirteen year old should make the life altering decision that they're not the gender that they are in their body. Now, I don't even blame the kids, I really don't. I blame the parents who are allowing this to become a reac You ever, notice how the more left wing you are, the more likely you are to have trans kids. This is the reality. There's lots of people in Hollywood that have multiple trans kids. The idea of one parent having multiple trans kids is statistically off the charts improbable. Yet it's happening all the time in LA, It's happening all the time in New York. The richer you are, the more of a celebrity you are, the more likely you are to have a trans kid. Does that make any sense?

Does that make any sense?

Of course not.

Of course not.

And so we have made a lot of decisions about the choices that kids should be able to make and that their parents should be able to make on their behalf. And we're going to talk at two o'clock Eastern on this program with the Attorney General of Tennessee Jonathan Scermetti, who just won a six' to Three Supreme court decision, saying in the state Of, tennessee you cannot treat someone to change their gender when they are a. Minor this is hyper, rational this is basic common. Sense the fact that we have such a delusion in this country that all three left wing Judges Kagan sodomayor And Katanji Brown jackson would all say the state shouldn't be allowed to do this is a sign of incredible mental illness on the left and how this woke virus has spread that we have gotten here. AGAIN i would just like to ask those three justices do you believe that fourteen year old should be able to get full body? TATTOOS i bet they would say, No, well the tattoo is less significant medically than potentially sterilizing a child at fourteen years, old which they are arguing the state should not be able to. Prohibit and SO i JUST i look AT i mean, AGAIN i think of this in the context of, tattoos because it's a body altering in some way. Procedure AND i don't think there's anybody in The Supreme court right now who would, say, hey we are going to disallow a state from prohibiting minors from getting. Tattoos that, is in other, WORDS i think Nine Supreme court justices would, say, yeah it's in the state's interest to allow us all kids restricted from being able to get. Tattoos yet they're going to say that it shouldn't be permissible for a state to stop. This i'm sure there's knucklehead fourteen and fifteen year old kids out there that have wanted to get tattoos and have wanted to sue their parents for not allowing it or the state for not allowing. It but we would overwhelmingly, say, well that's. Appropriate so somehow it has become orthodoxy on the left to allow. This we'll talk about this With Jonathan. Scermadi but here's WHAT i want to say. Too we should have national legislation to stop this from. Happening AND i mean, AGAIN i want to reiterate this because it's important because the result here and Bravo, tennessee my home state for getting this done and winning this, case but the result is going to, be, well we'll just travel To illinois and have this, surgery or we'll just travel To New york and have this surgery or world has traveled To. California gender surgeries on minors should be prohibited. Nationwide we shouldn't be allowing A tennesseean or An, alabamian or A, georgian or A texan or A floridian to get on an airplane and travel somewhere to get their genitals chopped.

POST a Divided Supreme court cleared the way for states to ban certain gender transition treatments for. Miners even the phrasing is. Dishonest but then listen to this a polarizing national? Issue do you think this is really that? Polarizing every same parent In america believes that miners should not be having these. SURGERIES i think it's an eighty twenty. ISSUE i really, do maybe ninety, ten but a polarizing national. Issue The trump administration has seized on in initiatives targeting transgender. Rights do you think that trans miners have a right to chop their penis off at, Fourteen that's what they're arguing a transgender right. Is do you think a girls should have a right to chop her boobs off at fifteen for the rest of her? Life do you think that there should be a right to sterilize children in The United states because their parents happen to believe this lie That, SADLY i, MEAN i really do feel sad for these, kids BECAUSE i think what the data shows is they are profoundly, sad many of these, kids and they're looking for a reason why they are profoundly, sad and like many, kids they latch onto an idea that is oftentimes not accurate because they're teenagers and their brains aren't fully, developed and they, decide if ONLY i were to take this huge, step THEN i would be. Happier the Reason i'm not happy is Because i'm a boy in a girl's, body Or i'm a girl in a boy's. Body adults should, say, no it's probably not the reason you're. Unhappy let's work on trying to make you happier because you're an emotional. Teenager let's try and bring you through. This let's also maybe have conversations that it's okay to be sad and depressed, sometimes and that part of being an adult is working through being sad and depressed without taking drastic. Action we don't want you to feel, Like, hey When i'm sad and, DEPRESSED i have to go grab a bottle of, liquor OR i have to use an illicit. Substance the best way to deal with emotion is to work your way through it to become a healthier. Adult it's not to pretend the emotions are one hundred percent real and that what you are feeling in a small moment of time is actually representative of how you're going to feel at thirty four or sixty four or hopefully ninety four one. Day and SO i just feel like we have failed in many parts of this country kids and pretending that this is a normal thing and that we should in some, way some ways affirm their necessity of these awful. Surgeries we'll talk about it and we come. Back i'll take some of your calls on, it but this is a WIN i wanted to start. With we're also going to update you on the Latest Iran israel. Issues we're going to talk With Senator Bill cassidy From louisiana bottom of the third, hour and Again Jonathan, scurmetti The Attorney general Of tennessee who won this Big Supreme court, ruling will be this top of the third. Hour but in the, MEANTIME i want to tell you a lot of people deciding that they want to put gold in their overall four to oh one ks as a part of their, portfolio just to have some solidity in a time where it feels like currency fluctuations are, happening stock market fluctuations are. Happening for, centuries gold has been a reliable hedge against inflation and it has retained its value and of, late as overall currency values have, declined it has maintained its.

HOUSE i will, say you, Know buck AND i were in The Oval office With President trump On thursday last, week And trump wanted us to see all of the changes that he had. Made he has added a great deal of gold to The Oval office and it looks really. Good but first of, ALL i understand that many of you are Like. Clay you can't even address. YOURSELF i don't know IF i would trust you on whether or not you can judge anything of any. Consequence SO i respect, that BUT i will tell you like you sit and look up at the ceiling in the oval, office and there is an awesome presidential seal in gold that he is embossed. There he's also right NOW i think this is, known but, well, anyway he has broken ground on a brand new outdoor patio that he is going to create so he can have basically an outdoor dining room when the weather IN dc is, good which probably is what seven and a half eight months out of the year where you could in theory have a meal outside IN dc maybe maybe seven, months and so that is going to be very. Cool but he's trying to create essentially the same sort of patio that he has In Mara. Lago and he was out in front of the media addressing the situation In. Iran President trump was And i'm going to play a couple of cuts on that here in a. Moment i'm going to continue to take your reactions to the big decision from The Supreme court Giving tennessee the, right affirming the state's ability to say that you can't have surgery trying to change your gender when you are a, minor something THAT i would imagine almost all of you out there that our parents think makes, sense and so we'll continue to take reaction from that as. Well The Attorney general Of tennessee who won That Supreme court, Case Jonathan, scurmetti is scheduled to join us about an hour from, now and then also we're going to talk With Senator cassidy Of louisiana bottom half of the hour in the in the next in the next, hour my final, hour and my final two hours here IN.

Thirteen, okay we got. That this is FROM cnn earlier. Today AND i know there's lots of online pest as people argue different sides and they've tried to, Argue, oh the base For trump does not want him to strike in any Way iran and keep nuclear weapons from being. There this would in some way betray The America First. AGENDA i disagree with, that and so do the vast majority of. You we're gonna play this cut here in a, moment but.

Let me just say, this there's nothing wrong with.

Let me just say, this there's nothing wrong with.

Disagreeing one of the great things About america is we don't have to agree on, everything and in, fact by having discussions debates about what we do and do not agree, on we oftentimes are going to get to a better. Result the reason WHY i read The New York times and The Washington post every morning is BECAUSE i want to know the arguments that are being made by many people who disagree with, me AND i am open to the idea that sometimes they might have arguments that make sense THAT i should consider as a part of the arguments That i'm going to discuss with you on any given. Day conflict one THING i wish we could talk more. About conflict is good in public. Life without, conflict there is. Dictatorship the most important right that we have In america is the right to. Disagree The First amendment is the most profoundly important of all of our. Rights so the fact that every single person doesn't agree on every single issue is in fact, good and we should debate and discuss robustly all different sorts of, ideas and over, time the best argument should. Win this is probably the most foundational BELIEF i have in my, life to the EXTENT i believe in, ANYTHING i believe in the marketplace of. Ideas this is WHY i was so troubled when suddenly in The biden administration they're restricting our ability to share stories On facebook or. YouTube When YouTube wouldn't allow our interview With President trump that we did with him At bedminster to be posted because they didn't like some of the things he. Said that's the antithesis of the Entire american democratic. Process you should hear everything that every potential elected official. Says you should contemplate, them you should consider, Them you should weigh whether you agree or. Disagree they wouldn't post Ran paul's interview with us while Rand paul was running for reelection In. Kentucky Every kentucky and out there should be able to hear every single thing Ran paul. Says Every american should be able to hear every single thing The president of The United states, says you should weigh, it you should consider, it you should contemplate if.

Disagreeing one of the great things About america is we don't have to agree on, everything and in, fact by having discussions debates about what we do and do not agree, on we oftentimes are going to get to a better. Result the reason WHY i read The New York times and The Washington post every morning is BECAUSE i want to know the arguments that are being made by many people who disagree with, me AND i am open to the idea that sometimes they might have arguments that make sense THAT i should consider as a part of the arguments That i'm going to discuss with you on any given. Day conflict one THING i wish we could talk more. About conflict is good in public. Life without, conflict there is. Dictatorship the most important right that we have In america is the right to. Disagree The First amendment is the most profoundly important of all of our. Rights so the fact that every single person doesn't agree on every single issue is in fact, good and we should debate and discuss robustly all different sorts of, ideas and over, time the best argument should.

Foundational so the fact That Tucker carlson might disagree with me on whether we should drop a bomb On iran to wipe out their nuclear, facilities or the fact That Marjorie Taylor green might disagree with the president if he decides to do, that that's. Fine we don't all have to uniformly agree on, everything particularly when hard decisions have to be. Made, ultimately when you vote for president of The United, states do you know what you're voting?

For?

For?

Judgment you are voting and saying some of the most difficult decisions that have to be. Made the president is going to sit right behind that resolute, desk and there are going to be people that make arguments in multiple different directions to him about what he should, do and then he's going to consider all those arguments and he's going to make what he thinks is the best. Decisions sometimes those are really hard. Decisions in, fact if they make it all the way to the, president they very often are very hard. Decisions how to Handle iran's nuclear pursuit is not an easy. Decision if it, were it would have been decided a generation. Ago the fact that it's still being decided by the president is a testament to how, committed in my, Opinion iran is to getting nuclear, weapons which actually is super. Rational like take yourself out of The United states and pretend that you were religious Fundamentalist Ayatola kameni and The iyatola was sitting there In iran takes power nineteen seventy nine and he, SAYS i want my religious, CLERICS i want The malas to be in power here for the next thousand. Years what CAN i do to make sure that that's, happened that that's going to. Happen IF i were An, IRANIAN i would advise, him AND i was trying to keep The malas in, POWER i would, say, sir you should get nuclear. Weapons that is a rational decision by. Him he looks At Kim jong un In North. KOREA i Wish kim jo onoon didn't have with nuclear weapons In North. Korea guess what the odds OF us taking Out North korea and reuniting The korean, peninsula WHICH i think is what would be the best thing for global, commerce peace and the growth of human rights in the world becomes almost impossible if we have to, consider, well we got a crazy guy with nuclear. Weapons there's no telling how many tens of millions of people he might. Kill we'll, just, unfortunately have to Allow North korea to be a, crazy backwards totalitarian. Nation the same thing would happen In iran if they got nuclear. Weapons The ayah totally gets. It Most americans get. It in, fact even CNN's Harry inton this morning was discussing ON cnn that the vast majority Of, Americans independents And, Democrats, Republicans, democrats and independence All americans overwhelmingly agree That iran should not get nuclear, weapons and then a substantial overwhelming majority Of republicans actually believe That trump should be willing to Use american force to keep that from.

Thirteen there's been a lot of talk online and on social media and in podcasts of a divide within The republican, ranks but here on this, question IF I RAN's trying to make a nuclear, weapon look at that sixty nine percent Of. Republicans the, clear vast majority Of republicans FAVOR us air strikes On iran on their nuclear. Facilities but there is this substantial minority twenty seven, percent who oppose such an. Idea so it's not surprising you're hearing those other. Voices Besides Donald trump out, there there are plenty of them in The republican ranks who oppose striking THE us Striking iran if they're trying to make a nuclear. Weapon but the clear, majority the clear majority Of republicans are With Donald trump if in Fact iran is trying.

Strike, okay and it's around eighty percent Of, Democrats, republicans And independents in that same clip that Agree iran getting nuclear weapon is a bad. Thing, now some people are, saying, Well America first would never support. This America first doesn't mean that we have to rely on other. Countries just choosing not to BOMB Us america first means we should Protect americans. FIRST i agree with, that And americans are protected more so if fewer crazy people have nuclear, weapons which could kill theoretically millions Of americans in the. FUTURE i don't see this as a difficult. Decision If Donald, trump who has consistently in his, career is being advised that by attacking this mountain In iran where they are trying to create nuclear, weapons that we could once and for all wipe out the ability Of iran to get nuclear. Weapons that seems to me to be the very foundational element Of america first, now and around seventy percent Of republican voters seem to. Agree now larger, context what should we do beyond? THAT i think that's actually the difficult. Call my concern is if The iatolas are left in control Of, iran they are not going to give up on getting nuclear, weapons because it is eminently rational of them to want nuclear. Weapons doesn't mean that it's better for the, world but it is eminently rational Of iran to want nuclear. Weapons why do you believe That iran is suddenly going to, say, oh you know, what we don't want nuclear. Weapons this government since nineteen seventy nine has said death To, america death To.

Weapons if we agree on, that and most of us, do then the next question is do you believe they're ever going to stop trying to get. Them the analogy THAT i made yesterday was it's a little bit like. Antibiosotics for those there that have that have an, illness you start taking. Antibiotics if you take your entire, antibiotics you kill the.

Ayatolas if you don't kill the, virus eventually they may come back stronger than. Ever BECAUSE i believe they are not going to stop trying to get nuclear. Weapons that is the more challenging. Question if you buy, that WHICH i think is, true then the next question, Becomes, okay what do we do to try to address? That do we take the next step and Support israel killing The? Ayatola do we think That iran would let the royal family come back in and that that would in some way make A ron a free or safer, place not only for the people who live, there but for us In america and for those of us who believe In western civilizations supremacy around the.

Wait and then all of a, sudden My Solicitor General Matt, rice who argued the case in The Supreme, court said it's out and then we immediately scrambled to read it and see what. Happened AND i still haven't been through all of the, opinions working my way through, them but, yeah my phone absolutely blew. Up we've been doing a bunch of media. Stuff Senator blackburn AND i did a press conference ON ai a few minutes ago, too so there was a little break from The Supreme court. Stuff but it's been a busy.

Win all, RIGHT i think you're one of the best attorney, general. Smartest i'm not just saying this because you happen to be in my. STATE i think if you look at the, data you have been on the right side of a lot of these. Issues having said, that would you have ever believed that you would need to argue that you can't do these surgeries on minor children when in the context of body Alteration it's been common since for generations, that for, instance a fifteen year old couldn't get a full back tattoo virtually, anywhere that no parent would be allowed to do. That it's kind of staggering that we got, here isn't.

It it is incredible how fast everything is. Moved but that comes on the back of decades and decades of academic work by people who, are you, know really focused on the. Ideology and what we saw when we put this case. Together what we, saw Because alabama had been litigating it and Their Attorney, General Steve, marshall had been fighting really, hard is that all the science underlying giving these treatments to kids was, fraudulent that it had been doctored in ways that were particularly designed to affect the outcomes in. Court and so it's just built on a house of. Sand and you see even these countries In, europe you, know THE uk And sweden And norway and all these countries which are by no means, conservative but as they look at the evidence coming, in they've, said we can't do this to our. Kids there's huge, risk there's little if any. Benefit, so you, know it's it's wild that we have seen such big. CHANGES i think what we're seeing now is a course correction and people realizing that as real these feelings are for, kids as hard as it is to deal with gender, dysphoria the evidence just does not support these treatments for.

Them, Okay so six' Three supreme court says the State of tennessee can. Do this this means that other states out there are also able to put in place similar laws as The one. Tennessee has but it also MEANS that i would imagine other states are not required to follow. This law they can pass their. Own laws what are your thoughts As The attorney General of tennessee on the idea Of a, tennessee kid, let's say Going to Illinois Or new York. Or california do you think this should be something looked at on a? Federal level how do you look at those kind? Of decisions someone leaving the state to have a surgery that wouldn't be Allowed.

In tennessee So the constitution gives each state a lot of authority about what goes on. IN state i certainly got very strong personal opinions, about this, but legally you know what we can Do in tennessee is stop stuff from coming in from. Other states so if a doctor is trying to send hormones into the state. For kid, you know That's against. Tennessee law we could do something, about that, you know there are certain laws that can deal with, you know folks who aren't the parents trying to take kids out. Of state but there are still some really complicated legal issues. Out THERE and, i think, YOU know i suspect that at the end of, the day this is going to be resolved by the medical evidence as opposed to. BY litigation i think you're you're you're seeing a lot of momentum on the side of how however serious a problem, this, is permanent irreversible treatments for kids is not. The answer, you know most kids outgrow feelings of, gender confusion and so subjecting them to these these procedures that will, sterilize them that can eliminate any sort of, sexual function that cause all sorts of potential, development issues both physically. And cognitively, you know the science just. Isn't there and my hope is that as people pull back from the, culture war pull back from, the ideology and just look at what the medical research, tells us you're going to see a lot of these hard left states move in The direction, tennessee's gone not because they're, culture warriors but because. They're rational.

That's.

Well, said also it, would suggest AND again i know you're the, attorney general BUT that i would imagine we both have law degrees here to what you.

Just said as kids.

Just said as kids.

Are aging and there are not an insubstantial number of these kids that are growing into adults, and, DECIDING boy I wish i had never done. THIS surgery i want to. DE transition i would think a lot of these kids who were minors when they had surgery would have real compelling lawsuit opportunities as plaintiffs against the doctors and hospitals that operated on them. As miners wouldn't there be in, your mind some claims out there that are likely to be moving through the, court, system which in addition to all of the investigatory data that, is, saying hey this is not actually making kids healthier or, better off there's also potentially liability from a civil perspective that many of these doctors and hospitals might.

BE facing i think that's absolutely. A consideration and, you know particularly when you look at the people who are pushing the, fraudulent research you know that that is difficult, to defend and of course there are jurisdictional issues people have to have a cause of action. To BRING but i certainly would be pretty NERVOUS if i were somebody who had been. Doing this, you know it's still relatively early for large numbers of people to be getting, these treatments and as time, goes on, you know it's inevitable that the number of detransitioners, goes up maybe goes up very quickly to a very. Big number, you know there is a lot of potential, exposure There and i'm sure that there are lawyers on both sides of the v looking at what that. Might portend talking.

BE facing i think that's absolutely. A consideration and, you know particularly when you look at the people who are pushing the, fraudulent research you know that that is difficult, to defend and of course there are jurisdictional issues people have to have a cause of action. To BRING but i certainly would be pretty NERVOUS if i were somebody who had been. Doing this, you know it's still relatively early for large numbers of people to be getting, these treatments and as time, goes on, you know it's inevitable that the number of detransitioners, goes up maybe goes up very quickly to a very. Big number, you know there is a lot of potential, exposure There and i'm sure that there are lawyers on both sides of the v looking at what that. Might portend talking.

To The attorney General, At Tennessee jonathan scermetti big six' three win on behalf of the state as it pertains, TO these treatments i. THINK that's important i started off the show talking about having a great deal of empathy and sympathy for a lot of these kids who are, being led astray. But also parents i'm sure you've heard more than anybody you got ready, for this case the number of times, that, you heard oh you can either have a, live you know daughter or, a dead son or some variation of that that a medical professional would, tell a parent which is a form of Emotional blackmail that i'm not sure most parents are prepared, to deal with because the idea of something like suicide is so awful for so many parents out there to think about this is this is really kind of staggering that it became? A commonplace argument did you? Feel that way also just even stepping a bit out of the law and looking at the larger culture.

Surrounding THIS discussion so i think.

Surrounding THIS discussion so i think.

The single biggest thing that happened at the argument in this Case Is, when CHASE strangio the aclu, lawyer on it conceded that this does not have an effect, on suicide rates because that is that is what's been used to push a lot of, parents and listen this is really. Hard for kids this is really hard. For their parents they are dealing with a very confusing, and complicated issue and there's been such an ideological influence on how this has discussed, that you know what's best for your kid gets tied up with somebody. Else's POLITICAL agenda and i have a lot of sympathy for families that are. Dealing with this we all need to be, thoughtful AND supportive and i mean this, is a. Hard Hard thing so i'm hoping that by shining the light on the debate about medical evidence and by bringing the actual evidence, to the forefront and that's what. THE court, did i mean this is squarely about the legislature's ability to evaluate evidence and reach a decision in. The medical context i'm hoping that by talking, about the evidence we're able to bring some more clarity and some comfort to families and not just have this be a snap decision based, on you know who they voted for for president or who they're talking to and what they. Care about politics this is a really serious MEDICAL issue and i don't think we've been doing right. By our kids did you?

Expect this result it's always hard for anybody out there that is trying to analyze questions and the overall oral argument. Aspect of this were you confident this would? Be the result what did you expect and how does it comport with the result now that?

You have it so argument. Went really, WELL you know i thought our. BRIEFING was great i have a. Phenomenal team here they, did, a really really. Really good job they worked. Hard on this but you never you never want. TO be confident i mean that justices have months and months to. Go over this they could have come up with with some issues that we hadn't. Even thought, about you know they're looking at the effect of their decision on the law. As a whole there were a bunch of Different ways the court could have gone to give us, a WIN here and I Think the chief justice very carefully chose a narrow path that really focuses on the fact that we're talking about kids. And medical treatment this is not a case. About transgender status this is not a case. About sex, discrimination you know necessarily you have to take into account whether somebody's a boy or a girl when you're looking at how, medications affect them because there is a. Physical DIFFERENCE sometimes and i thought this opinion did a really good job of walking through why this is not a big ideological issue but simply a traditional look at how legislatures regulate the, practice of medicine which is something they've been doing for. Hundreds of years.

Last, question for you and maybe there's an answer. Different than, this IT seemed as i have had a chance to, look at this that treating trans people as not a protected class is a significant component. Of this ruling was there anything else that you've picked up on that you think is significant not only for this case but going forward so far that may not be getting talked about.

Enough, or discussed, so you.

Know there was talk About whether the court should look at whether transgender status is, a protected Class And the, chief justice said we don't have to get there because this isn't about a law that's directed. At transgender people it's about a law that's directed at medical. Treatments for kids so there was A Concurrence by Justice Barrett that justice thomas, joined, that said well we don't think it's a protected class us. And here's why there was An Opinion by justice, Alito that said i'm Not sure the court's really able to. Duck this question so this is. Looming out there there'll probably be more litigation. On that front Given how aggressive tennessee's legislature has been on these issues and how aggressive we've. Been litigating, them you know we may well be in the middle of. That going forward but there are still open questions Here that the court's going to have to answer.

Issues out there, so, thank you congratulations and we.
