US President Donald Trump had a tense confrontation with a Democratic governor on Friday regarding his executive order banning transgender athletes from competing in women’s sports. The governor responded sharply, telling Trump, “See you in court.” The order allows US government agencies to withhold funding from schools that permit transgender athletes to participate in women’s teams. Trump also stated that he plans to urge the International Olympic Committee to revise its rules on transgender athletes ahead of the 2028 Los Angeles Games.
