      The decision is 6–3. Gorsuch wrote the majority, joined by Roberts, Ginsburg, Breyer, Sotomayor, and Kagan. Alito wrote the dissent, joined by Thomas and Kavanaugh. (LOL textualism.)

      Donald Trump promised conservative evangelical voters a Supreme Court justice who would give them everything they've always wanted, including a rollback of LGBTQ rights. Not sure how his "I gave you SCOTUS!" line will work on the campaign trail now.

      I'm loving the chaos energy of this moment, frankly. SCOTUS, the great guardian of our democracy, the council of sages, the head of our judicial branch, the ultimate arbiters of American law, cannot load an opinion onto a website.

      The timing of this decision could not be worse for the Trump administration. It just rolled out two new policies rejecting protections for transgender people under laws that bar discrimination because of sex. SCOTUS basically just said the administration's theory is dead wrong.

      Gorsuch's majority opinion is 29 pages. Alito and Kavanaugh's dissents are a collective 138 pages.

      Today's Supreme Court decision is, by a mile, the biggest legal victory transgender Americans have won in the history of the nation.

      Today's SCOTUS decision is also an extraordinary victory for gay and bisexual Americans on the heels of Obergefell, which guaranteed a right to same-sex marriage just five years ago. What an incredible expansion of legal equality in an extremely short amount of time.

      Kavanaugh declined to join Alito's fiery rage dissent, which bristles with hostility toward LGBTQ people. Kav knows that doesn't fly any more. Instead he wrote his own dissent that basically congratulates LGBTQ people for winning, even though he thought they should lose.pic.twitter.com/RCgLPjWaSv

          Here's my piece. This is a huge victory for LGBTQ equality, a triumph for the Supreme Court's independence, and just a terrific day for the country. In the end, Gorsuch stuck to his principles, and the most straightforward understanding of the law won out.https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2020/06/supreme-court-lgbtq-discrimination-employment.html …

          Don't underestimate the anger today's SCOTUS decision will provoke on the right. It could boil over into a crisis. Conservative donors spent millions getting Gorsuch on the bench. They wanted results. Now they're going to ask Republicans: THIS is the return on our investment?

          I am a fan of Gorsuch's explanation here. Broad laws have broad applications. As @GillianAtLaw has documented, the history of Title VII is a history of courts saying, "we actually did not anticipate this, and neither did Congress, but that's definitely sex discrimination."pic.twitter.com/nZxTSs6oSX

          The Supreme Court's decision today rips the heart out of the Trump administration's crusade to legalize anti-trans discrimination. It's a massive, fatal blow to the legal framework propping up the administration's bigotry. https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2020/06/scotus-trump-lgbtq-discrimination-agenda.html … @Slate

          You're still a long way to go. There are things that the court didn't address that should be put in legislation.

          That’s why Roberts joined the majority after seeing Oberfell. IMHO. Could the Grinch grow a heart?

          He wrote a cautious concurrence in Oberfell, noting that this is something Congress should have taken up (but was unable to pass- proposing amendments to Title 7 has happened many times).

          It's interesting that Alito's dissent to recognizing the law's inherent LGBTQ protections is based in part on a full-throated *endorsement* of the politically left-coded idea that sex and gender are totally separate things.pic.twitter.com/4CrJb8QLFm
