A middle school teacher in Ohio has been awarded $450,000 after being forced to resigned for refusing to use pronouns.

It all started in August of 2022, when Vivian Geraghty refused to use the preferred names and pronouns of two transgender students because of her religious beliefs and continued using their birth names and pronouns.

The students emailed Geraghty telling her to stop, then reported her to a school counselor. That’s when the school forced her to resign from her position of teaching language arts – so she sued the district for violating her First Amendment rights.

A U.S. District Court agreed with Garaghty, ruling that forcing Geraghty to call the students by their preferred names was “compelled speech” and that the pronoun policy at the school was not neutral.

The organization that represented Geraghty, the Alliance Defending Freedom said “No school official can force a teacher to set her religious beliefs aside in order to keep her job.”

President Donald Trump: US is ‘laughing stock’ after New Orleans terror attack, Tesla Cybertruck explosion

In a fiery social media post, President Donald Trump took aim at the country’s “weak” leadership for failing to protect Americans just hours after authorities revealed they were investigating the attack in New Orleans & Las Vegas as terror-related.
Trump saying,
Our country is a disaster, a laughing stock all over the world. The DOJ, FBI, and Democrat state and local prosecutors have not done their job. They are incompetent and corrupt, having spent all of their waking hours unlawfully attacking their political opponent, ME, rather than focusing on protecting Americans from the outside and inside violent SCUM that has infiltrated all aspects of our government, and our Nation itself. The USA is breaking down – he said - a violent erosion of Safety, National Security, and Democracy is taking place all across our Nation,” he said.
