On Friday the Trump administration removed protections against discrimination in health care for transgender people. The Washington Post said the move “represents an important setback in the movement for LGBTQ rights.”

On Monday the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that gay and transgender employees are protected from workplace discrimination. The New York Times said the ruling gave “the movement for LGBT equality a stunning victory.”

Tomorrow I expect both newspapers to analyze why every LGBTQ person in the nation is afflicted with motion sickness.
