Tensions in this small city of 34,551 people, 39 miles southeast of Charlotte, North Carolina, over a local diner and restaurant’s drag shows have escalated from sidewalk protests into dueling lawsuits inside a federal courthouse.

In a 10-page report released on April 16 by staff for the Democratic majority of the U.S. Senate Finance Committee, the Republican attorneys general of Tennessee, Missouri, Indiana, and Texas are accused of using “abusive legal demands” to collect the medical records of transgender patients in furtherance of the attorneys general’s “ideological and political goals.”

A Drag Story Hour event hosted by the Arlington, Va. gay bar and restaurant Freddie’s Beach Bar was interrupted by a bomb threat sent by email on April 6 requiring parents and their children attending the event to exit the bar into its rear outdoor seating area and parking lot until police and a bomb sniffing dog searched the premises and found no trace of a bomb.

The annual Walt Disney Company shareholders meeting took on a contentious environment April 3 as far right anti-trans activists attempted to push through a measure that would force Disney to pay for services for transgender people who choose to detransition.
