CAS Upholds Ban on Ukrainian Skeleton Athlete's Memorial Helmet at 2026 Winter Olympics
https://newsletter.tf/ukraine-athlete-helmet-ban-olympics-2026/
A sports court has banned a Ukrainian skeleton athlete from competing in the 2026 Winter Olympics because his helmet showed pictures of fallen soldiers, which was seen as a political statement.
-
The Court of Arbitration for Sport has decided that Ukrainian skeleton athlete Vladyslav Heraskevych cannot wear a helmet showing pictures of Ukrainian athletes who died in the war. The court agreed with the Olympic committee that this breaks the rules about political messages during the Games. Heraskevych can stay at the Olympics but cannot compete.

On Thursday, the Michigan House of Representatives passed the first transgender sports ban in the state’s history, pushing through legislation after contentious hearings in the Government Operations Committee. The bills advanced to the House floor and passed largely along party lines, with just one Democrat breaking ranks to support the measures. But the effort is likely to stop there. Democratic senators tell Erin In The Morning they have no plans to take up the bill in the Senate, a move that would effectively kill the legislation—and with it, Michigan’s attempt to codify a ban on transgender participation in sports.
Michigan Senate Majority Leader Winnie Brinks’ office said in statement to Erin In The Morning, "Our legislative agenda is long and attacking kids is not on it." The sentiment was shared by multiple other Senators in the Michigan State Senate who confirmed that the bills would not receive a hearing, essentially putting on ice attempts to ban transgender people from sports.

From the article: "Political campaigns in 2024 saw many Republicans — especially Donald Trump — and even some Democrats attack the inclusion of transgender females in girls’ and women’s sports, saying “men” shouldn’t be in these sports because of a supposed competitive advantage. On February 5, Trump signed an executive order called “No Men in Women’s Sports," with the White House claiming it is law. He warned that public schools and colleges that do not comply with the order would "risk their federal funding." But executive orders are not laws; they are directives issued by the president to federal agencies.
"Legal experts note that executive orders cannot override federal civil rights protections without congressional action and are expected to face swift legal challenges. This order is expected to face those challenges as well."

From the article: "More than 400 LGBTQ and civil rights groups on Monday urged lawmakers to reject legislation that would bar transgender athletes from competing in women’s sports, claiming the measure, which the House is expected to consider this week, “would harm women and girls and undermine civil rights for all students.”

I examined the Republican obsession with transgender athletes, which led to the creation of a sports ban in Kansas, when Republicans overrode Democratic Gov. Laura Kelly's veto.

CW: Keir Starmer, bans, trans women in sport
I reckon only a 40% chance Labour will clear a majority in the next election. More likely I think is a hung parliament.
Against that backdrop, I don't know what to do about Starmer. He's no ally to trans people, he's going to hurl us under the bus as soon as it is advantageous to him. I don't want to vote for that *other* than I hope the Unions might force him to pack this shit it?
I dunno.
