The Spin

Left narrative

The court's 107-page ruling correctly dismantled Hegseth's policy, noting that it disqualified people diagnosed with gender dysphoria even as children, regardless of current health. Banning qualified, willing service members based on hostility rather than evidence is, without a doubt, a constitutional violation.

Right narrative

Two Democrat-appointed activist judges voted to hurt the country's military readiness, unit cohesion and deployability. Gender dysphoria directly affects combat readiness, and the military exists to win wars. SCOTUS needs to step in and restore proper deference to military leadership.
