Great read all around but this stuck out

During oral arguments in the case, Reyes brought up the existence of intersex people and asked whether DOJ lawyers knew what “intersex” meant; per court transcripts, they did not, leading Reyes to explain that Trump’s executive order was “just incorrect” as a matter of biology.

Pitiful. I would think lawyers targeting trans individuals would be somewhat educated.

You get what you pay for, but they also have to be willing to work with you. In this case, that either means they have absolutely no morality, or they're fascists too.

They always seem to find lawyers for this shit, but they all seem to be the rejects that no one else wanted. Competent lawyers want nothing to do with them.
