PeterRS Posted May 24 Posted May 24 Steven Hotze, a Republican donor from Texas and Houston-area physician, has been on an anti-gay campaign since 1982. In that year he launched a petition in Austin, Texas, to legalize housing discrimination against gay people. He called gays "criminals" and "soldomites". He alleged that giving protection from discrimination to LGBTQ people is "like thieves and murderers trtying to gain political power." Hotze has tried without success numerous times on numerous anti-gay issues. Until the Supreme Court legalized gay marriage in 2015. This idiot launched a "Faith, Family, Freedom" tour using a cacophony of anti-gay slurs from his usual rhetoric saying he was fighting a "wicked, evil" movement to informing the Houston Chronicle that "Kids will be encouraged to practice sodomy in kindergarten." Now Hotze is suing the US federal government to roll back PrEP. The Supreme Court will hear the case in the next few weeks. As an article in today's Guardian points out, "A decision in his favor could upend healthcare access for LGBTQ+ people across the country – and derail a wide array of preventive treatments for tens of millions in the process." With another of Trump's idiot as Health Secretary, who is to say what Trump's court will decide. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/may/23/supreme-court-case-steven-hotze-hiv-prep vinapu, floridarob and Ruthrieston 2 1 Quote
