Waggoner: The Ruling Extends to Locker Rooms and Showers

Supreme Court BOMBSHELLS: Against Trump on Birthright Citiz… · Jun 30, 2026 Government

Kristen Waggoner argued the Supreme Court's ruling is not limited to athletic competition. The court's biological-sex logic, combined with Title IX's equal-opportunity guarantee, will extend to locker rooms, showers, and dorm rooms. ADF already has clients who suffered sexual harassment and assault in these spaces.

Kristen Waggoner & Madison Kenyon: Reacting to the Victory

At 1:01:40 · chapter starts 58:00

The guests arrive and the emotional weight of the day is immediate. Madison Kenyon says she has been waiting six years for this day, and her heart is full of gratitude for ADF, the attorneys general, and the female athletes who stood with her when the whole world seemed against them. She traces her journey from a speech class assignment defending the Women's Fairness in Sports Act to becoming the first collegiate plaintiff in this litigation. Kristen Waggoner immediately names Idaho Attorney General Labrador and West Virginia Attorney General McCuskey as unsung heroes, praising their willingness to defend these laws when so many other officials were spineless. She then signals ADF's next move: they are coming for the 23 states that still lack protections, arguing the court's biological-sex rationale and Title IX's equal-opportunity guarantee will apply there too — and beyond sports, into locker rooms and showers.

Surveillance vs. Privacy: The Fulcrum We Need to Find

The Surveillance Economy, and How Capitalism Can Fix Poverty · Aug 10, 2026 Government

Mass surveillance is here to stay. The real battle isn't stopping cameras — it's ensuring judges and laws keep that data out of family court and civil disputes, admitting it only for violent crimes and national security. The surveillance economy currently yields more upside than downside, but only if we build the legal guardrails now.

Northern Europe Isn't Socialist — It's Capitalism Done Right

The Surveillance Economy, and How Capitalism Can Fix Poverty · Aug 10, 2026 Government

When people cite Scandinavia as proof socialism works, Galloway says they've got it backwards. Northern Europe runs highly competitive free-market economies with more competition in many sectors than the US — they just make sure taxes are actually paid and redistributed. Billionaires and universal healthcare can coexist.

How to Fix the UK in Four Moves

“We’re At The Beginning Of A Revolution” - Jimmy Carr - #11… · Aug 10, 2026 Government

Two percent adjustments to income tax and stamp duty tweaks are deck-chair rearrangements. The UK's competitiveness hinges on four structural levers: currency valuation, energy costs, regulatory burden, and tax rates. Devalue the pound, build 56 nuclear plants, slash red tape, introduce a flat tax — and the country transforms.

Lisbon Solved Its Drug Crisis — Then Forgot Why

“We’re At The Beginning Of A Revolution” - Jimmy Carr - #11… · Aug 10, 2026 Government

Lisbon had one of Europe's worst heroin crises. Then Portugal legalised drugs and redirected all enforcement money into rehabilitation and housing. Crime collapsed. Addiction fell. Then politics moved the money elsewhere, and the problem started creeping back. Chesterton's Fence: you forget why you were spending that money.
