What Girls Stand to Lose in the Supreme Court’s Title IX Case

The Daily Signal - Wed, 01/28/2026 - 08:06

The Supreme Court heard oral argument recently on multiple state statutes addressing the participation of transgender-identified male athletes in girls’ sports. What was once settled policy has become a national reckoning on identity, privacy, fairness, civil rights, and what it means to be a girl. 

In the pair of cases from West Virginia and Idaho, the court is being asked whether states may limit participation in girls’ and women’s sports teams to females, or whether doing so violates Title IX of federal civil rights law. 

These cases concern far more than team rosters. Title IX governs the entire educational environment, from classrooms and scholarships to housing, athletics, and the most intimate spaces on school grounds. It protects girls not only where they compete, but also private spaces like locker rooms and bathrooms. 

The court must decide whether Title IX will continue to protect girls’ sports and spaces as it was written, or whether males and females will be treated as legally interchangeable. The integrity of women’s sports, privacy, and dignity depends on the court choosing the former. 

During oral argument this week, lawyers for the plaintiffs argued that Title IX’s ban on sex discrimination requires schools to allow transgender-identified athletes (boys and men) to compete on girls’ teams if they identify as female. That reading deliberately perverts the true meaning of Title IX, and in doing so, disenfranchises the girls and women it was designed to protect.  

Title IX was adopted to ensure that girls and women, who have natural physical differences from boys and men, had fair opportunities to compete and benefit from all that comes with athletic competition. Before Title IX, existing girls’ teams lacked funding, scholarships, and administrative support. 

 Before Title IX passed, women received about one percent of college athletic funding, and boys outnumbered girls in high school sports by more than twelve to one. Within decades of the law’s passage, girls’ participation grew from fewer than 300,000 to nearly three million. Women now make up more than 40 percent of college athletes. 

Justice Brett Kavanaugh described that growth as one of the “great successes in America.” He also noted the cost when a girl “does not make the team or doesn’t get on the stand for the medal” because a male has taken her place: “There’s a harm there … we can’t sweep that aside.” 

Separate teams were created not as a courtesy but to give female athletes equal opportunities and protection as male ones. It is unthinkable that 50 years later, the law that demolished the foundation of inequity between the sexes is being used to rebuild it.  

Chief Justice John Roberts warned during oral arguments that whatever rule the court adopt would apply to all areas governed by Title IX, “across the board and not simply to the area of athletics,” including classrooms, programs of study, housing, and Title IX’s protections against sexual harassment, assault, and other violence against women.” 

If sex no longer matters in sports, it will not matter anywhere Title IX applies. What begins with athletics would quickly extend into every aspect of school life. 

Unfortunately for many girls, this injustice is already real. On the field, that means losing championships, records, and scholarship opportunities to male competitors. It means training for years only to watch a podium or roster spot disappear, then being told that objecting is a form of intolerance or bigotry. Across the country, girls are being forced to accept policies that erase sex-based boundaries in the name of inclusion. 

These losses are not limited to elite athletes. When a male takes a spot on a girls’ team, it is often the late bloomers, bench players, or those just good enough to make the roster who are cut. Their chance to participate disappears, along with their access to coaching, teamwork, discipline, and the physical and emotional benefits of competition. 

Off the field, girls are being told to change clothes alongside males and to treat their discomfort as something they must simply overcome. A framework that once protected fairness and privacy is being replaced with one that elevates ideology over experience. 

The court’s decision will determine whether states are allowed to protect their female citizens from that harm. 

The Supreme Court does not need to settle every cultural debate about gender–our elected lawmakers must step up and do that. The court does, however, need to affirm that sex, when used in our law, means sex, and not self-idenfication, to protect women and girls’ sports. For more than fifty years, the law has protected girls by recognizing that sex matters in sports and in private spaces. And it matters just as much today as it did fifty years ago.

No De Escalation Ever: Bannon Says You Blink Now and You’re Going to Blink Forever

Steve Bannon's WarRoom - Wed, 01/28/2026 - 07:58

No De Escalation Ever is the core warning from Steve Bannon as Minneapolis openly defies federal immigration law and dares the Trump administration to retreat.

No De Escalation Ever in Minneapolis

STEVE BANNON (HOST): It’s Wednesday, 28 January, Year of Our Lord 2026. MAGA is not breaking over this. Of course, everything’s bending a little bit, but not going to break by a long shot. We’re anti fragile, and we’re resilient. Been through these before.

President Trump, and this is coming hot off the press, because I think he’s getting a belly full of it again. He turned to Truth Social, and I quote, this is from the president.

“Surprisingly, Mayor Jacob Frey just stated that Minneapolis does not and will not enforce federal immigration laws.

After having had a very good conversation with him, could somebody in his inner sanctum please explain that this statement is a very serious violation of the law and he is playing with fire.”

End quote.

All Walz and Frey have done is smack talk and say how they’re not going to enforce federal immigration laws in Minneapolis. That’s a sanctuary city. Homan’s out there.

We need to hold. It’s quite simple in the fog of war. Just look through it. We have to hold the line. There can be no de escalation at all. You don’t need to bring down the temperature. Raise the temperature. Put them under pressure. They’re the ones that are cracking. The whole nation sees it.

The polling is still there. The Washington Post said today Trump did so good on the border and closing the border, but he bit off more than he could chew because he said he was going to deport everybody and that’s impossible. It’s not impossible. It’s going to happen.

The Democratic Party business, the red green alliance business model, is to flood the nation with illegal aliens and just say it’s too hard to get them out. It’s too bad. Let’s have them vote. Let’s get them on welfare. Let’s do it all. It’s not going to happen.

That’s why Minneapolis is the lance to the boil. Frey is a weakling. Walz is a clown. We couldn’t get better casting.

Remember Frey during BLM. No compromise with these guys.

And Stephen Miller, let me be blunt. You can’t send 300 Customs and Border and ICE and not have a whole of government approach. You have to have DOJ. You have to have tiger teams and prosecutors.

I think they’ve had 12 prosecutors quit the Minneapolis office. That’s fine. Nobody’s forcing you to work. Surge other prosecutors. FBI. Where are the pipe hitters? Where’s Department of War?

You can’t put a handful of Customs and Border and ICE agents there and let them be surrounded every night by domestic violent terrorists.

This is an inflection point. You blink now and you’re going to blink forever. You bend the knee now, you’ll bend the knee forever.

If we stand in the breach and say screw you, we’re fighting for the country, I don’t care how many people I’ve got to deport. I don’t care.

If the families are there and they’re there illegally and we want to keep them together, guess what? You’re going to have to round up some five year olds with their parents.

But they’re going home. And home ain’t the United States. I don’t care how long they’ve been here on Biden’s watch. That’s not the point. They’re here illegally.

We can’t afford it. African American citizens, Hispanic American citizens, the white working class. Their lives are being destroyed. Their education systems. Their health care. Their jobs are being taken. Their wages are being driven down.

They’re American citizens. And illegal alien invaders are not American citizens. That’s a bright line.

Alex Pretti Reportedly Had Previous Run-in With Federal Agents

The Daily Signal - Wed, 01/28/2026 - 07:36

Alex Pretti reportedly had at least one previous encounter with federal immigration officials before he was shot and killed by Border Patrol agents on Saturday.  

About a week before his death, federal officers tackled Pretti, breaking one of his ribs as he was shouting and blowing a whistle while agents were attempting to make arrests in Minneapolis, CNN first reported

Anti-ICE protesters have commonly used whistles to alert passers-by to the presence of immigration enforcement agents in the area.

Federal immigration agents have kept a record of the individuals they have interactions with, according to CNN, but the Department of Homeland Security said it did not have a record of a prior confrontation with Pretti. 

Border Patrol agents shot and killed 37-year-old Alex Pretti in Minneapolis on Saturday, the second fatal shooting by immigration enforcement agents in the area in less than three weeks.

The incident is under investigation and has sparked calls for a reduced federal immigration presence not only in Minneapolis but other cities and states across the country. Pretti’s death occured after an Immigration and Customs Enforcement-involved shooting in Minneapolis killed 37-year-old Renee Good on Jan. 7. 

Federal immigration enforcement operations in Minneapolis have been met with opposition protests and demonstrations.  

ICE agents are facing a 1,300% increase in assaults and an 8,000% increase in death threats, according to DHS.  

“This unprecedented increase in violence against law enforcement is a direct result of sanctuary politicians and the media creating an environment that demonizes our law enforcement and encourages rampant assaults against them,” DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said in a statement earlier in January.  

Following the deaths of Good and Pretti, Trump announced Monday he was sending border czar Tom Homan to Minneapolis to take over the immigration enforcement operation in Minnesota. DHS Secretary Kristi Noem called Trump’s decision “good news for peace, safety, and accountability in Minneapolis.” 

Homan met with Gov. Tim Walz, and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey, both Democrats, on Tuesday. Following the meetings, Homan said everyone agreed on the “need to support our law enforcement officers and get criminals off the streets.” 

“While we don’t agree on everything, these meetings were a productive starting point and I look forward to more conversations with key stakeholders in the days ahead,” Homan said. “President Trump has been clear: he wants American cities to be safe and secure for law-abiding residents — and they will be.”
