A Trump-appointed judge ruled against part of Republican Florida Gov. Ron Desantis’s “Stop WOKE Act” on Tuesday holding that it violates the First Amendment. In a 2-1 decision the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit blocked the higher education portion of the 2022 Sunshine State law that was meant to stop left-wing gender ideology and critical race theory (CRT) from being taught in schools, according to the ruling. The 2022 law prohibited professors and workplace training from teaching about race or gender in a way that induces guilt or blame in the classroom, under threat of a fine or penalty. Florida argued that the professor’s classroom speech belongs to the state because they are paid by the government. Judge Britt…Open
