1. Federal judge blocks Texas A&M's drag show ban, allowing 'Draggieland' to proceed

A federal judge on Monday temporarily blocked the Texas A&M University System from banning drag shows on its campuses, making way for the annual “Draggieland” event to occur on Thursday. The ruling comes after the Texas A&M University System Board of Regents earlier this month banned drag shows from all 11 of its campuses.

A student organization, the Queer Empowerment Council, sued claiming the ban was targeting the group’s annual event, Draggieland, scheduled for March 27. The lawsuit claims the ban violates the First and Fourteenth Amendment rights of the students. 

2. Chiefs WR Xavier Worthy sues woman who accused him of assault

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy is suing his former girlfriend who accused him of attacking her. In his lawsuit filed Monday in Texas, Worthy alleges the woman assaulted him and stole or destroyed more than $150,000 in cash and property. Worthy filed the lawsuit against Tia Jones in Williamson County, Texas, where the two lived.

Worthy was arrested earlier this month after Jones accused him of assaulting her, but the district attorney declined to file charges in that case after speaking to multiple witnesses. An attorney for Jones declined to comment on the lawsuit.

3. North Texas congressman introduces bill that would ban minors from using social media

A bill being taken up in the 89th Texas Legislature's regular session could prohibit minors from accessing social media platforms.
