Elie Mystal on Tennessee's Anti-Drag Ban: GOP Is Pushing Bigotry & Attacking the First Amendment

On Friday, a Federal Judge in Memphis, Tennessee, temporarily blocked a law signed by Tennessee Governor Bill Lee banning drag shows in public, and legal experts say it will likely continue to be blocked all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court. Tennessee's drag ban was always bad law. It was always against the First Amendment," says Elie Mystal, justice correspondent for The Nation. One of the things that these Republicans are trying to do is to directly attack the First Amendment when it suits them to push their bigotry against the LGBT community."
