Oh the white house can use the word transgender if they use it to bash democrats. But not to describe a transgender person.
Weak vibe.
transGENIC - meaning they were able to modify cells in mice to more resemble human to be able to develop new medications that were difficult to develop, but I guess anything that has word "trans" is woke. The transportation secretary should be on a lookout.
... transgenic mice to test whether male-level androgens ... are necessary and/or sufficient for androgen inhibition of in vivo LH pulse parameters
They used the transgenic mice to test if hrt works. And the others have nothing to do with transgenic mice, most are explicitly about hrt and one is testing if asthma differences in sex is actually caused by hormones.

Yeah, they want to make genes trans now. The woke are out of control!
Oh my god, I looked at the Rolling Stone article and this is the real explanation? I expect them to be stupid, but this is the basis for their talking point?
I am accurately using the word "literally," when I say I literally can't keep up with how stupid they are. I genuinely lowered my expectations as far as I could, and it wasn't low enough.

There's a list of experiments. They mostly sound pretty standard, looking at the effects of various (hormone, etc.) medications on things like breast cancer, reproduction, etc. Tons and tons of medical experiments covering all sorts of different things are carried out each year. And they're a big part of why the USA has long been a leader in drug and medical research.
Edit: The full press release:
I work with someone who is happily parroting this bullshit and I'm not even near America. Please Americans... Do something.
Stupidity is contagious and the Internet is a superspreader. It's like COVID except it lasts even longer than long COVID and it's way more dangerous.

Reality is a team sport, to some people.
Their stated ideals are ad-hoc justifications. All that has ever mattered is ingroup loyalty.
And they think that's all you're doing, because they think that's all there is.
The underlying cause is they are more emotional driven than the baseline human, I think. We're all emotional, but I feel like some people really let the truthiness gutfeel of emotions rule the day and facts are just not that important to them.
Pick like any of those and you see they had a choice between feelings that make them feel smart or part of an in-group, or facts that made the world clash with their beliefs. And because they're kind of fools and cowards, they go with the feel-good most of the time.
Yeah, it's a fear response, that's why they want the strong man who will fix things and punish 'the elites' and 'the immigrants' and 'the Jews'.

Maybe instead of fact checking, we should keep dropping little truth nuggets that sound like lies but are actually true.
Like it's a sexy secret
Trump Decried Millions Spent ‘Making Mice Transgender.’ It Was Cancer and Asthma Research.
tl;dr: trump lies again, while also failing to comprehend the written word.. again.

The fact that Whitehouse.gov has turned into another extension of Trump's Twitter is so fucking insulting to the entire country and everything it stands for. Go fuck yourself you whiny little pussy.
Republicans have lied for decades, why would they stop now that they are in power?
The Fake News losers at CNN immediately tried to fact check it, but President Trump was right (as usual).
Sounds very official and professional. Everyone at the white house is required to talk like Trump now?
Ladies, gentlemen, and my fellow freaks and geeks, i give you: the final form of the US Government.

And I am being serious here, it's actually bolded on the webpage.
I want to laugh. I want to cry. JFC. The world has gone insane.
for now, I plan to dig deepering into the actual claim, but the wording of the press release is... something...
I am livid at seeing this kind of language on my government’s official commissions.
How do we even find redemption at this point? How can the world ever take us seriously again?
