President Donald Trump has gone to the Supreme Court seeking an order halting a passport plan that has “no basis in law or logic.”
It is D. John Sauer, the nation’s solicitor general, who explained to the court that a lower court decision that allows people “to select their own sex designation” regardless of their biological sex should be halted.
“Private citizens cannot force the government to use inaccurate sex designations on identification documents that fail to reflect the person’s biological sex—especially not on identification documents that are government property and an exercise of the President’s constitutional and statutory power to communicate with foreign governments,” Sauer told the justices in his petition.
“That injunction injures the United States by compelling it to speak to foreign governments in contravention of both the President’s foreign policy and scientific reality. As the lower courts have declined to stay this baseless injunction pending appeal, this Court’s intervention is warranted,” Sauer said.

Since the beginning of such designations, U.S. passports have allowed people to list male or female on their passports.
Then came Biden’s transgender agenda, in which he advocated for chemical treatments and body mutilating surgeries on both adults and children.
Trump’s reversion to the previous standard, Sauer explained, is “eminently lawful.”
It was Judge Julia Kobick who made the claim that Biden’s policy was required.
And then it was the Daily Caller that explained her connections to and support for Democrats and Democrat agendas run deep.
Nominated by Joe Biden, she previously clerked for leftist extremist and vocal anti-Trump justice Ruth Ginsburg.
She also worked with Massachusetts Gov. Maura Healey when she was attorney general.
She also worked with the “Government Bureau’s Racial Equity Working Group.”
She also volunteered for Democratic political campaigns, including a stint promoting John Kerry and Elizabeth Warren.
Sauer was at the high court on Friday, seeking to correct the decision from the lower court.
Trump’s administration largely has been successful in its cases before the Supreme Court, which often have been moved there because of the politically driven agendas used by district court judges against Trump.
