They’re turning the frogs mice gay trans!
Transgender… Animal Experiments? What the fuck are you even talking about?
Every day I’m just wondering if all this is even reality. I think this is The Bad Place 🤔
Muhahahahahahaha, aw man! I can’t believe that you figured it out! You really suck ERROR: Earth.exe has crashed.
well, we created a system of social cohesion and coordination so strongly based on obedience to authority and staying in your lane that the authority doesn’t actually have to make sense or serve us for us to obey.
in fact, they don’t even need to acknowledge material reality. they can live completely, entirely, in their delusional ketamine fueled fantasy worlds, and we will still be killed for disobedience, no matter how mad and irrational their commands get. such a shame there’s no alternative.
yes i clicked articles. headline is the article. how typicle.
Indubitably.
Can someone check my math? I’m estimating Trumps first term tax cuts saved the top 1% at least $100b durning his first term. Trump is complaining about less than $9m being spent here. $9m is 0.009% of $100b. Did I get that all right?

It is closer to $2.5. trillion.
But you aren’t a conservative. If you ever argued with one about this it will boil down to: taxes are theft, the rich are entitled to those tax cuts.
taxes are theft,
the rich are entitled to those tax cuts.and it’s much easier to steal from poor and/or uneducated people.Fixed it for you.
I’m not a conservative. Just in case it wasn’t clear. I believe taxes are a bandaid, a stop gap that let’s the rich get away with too much, when we should instead seize the means of wealth generation.
but of course; the poor are not.
The only right they understand is might. Like a pinata it only trickles down after beating it with a stick.
Apparently the Times of India has entered the chat…
Researchers tested drug cross interactions. On mice. The most common subjects in lab tests.
Take a grain of truth. Twist it. It is the core idea behind every fascist propaganda machine.
there’s not even a grain of truth here; they thought he word ‘transgenic’ meant remotely the same thing as ‘transgender’. or thought nobody would check.
Also, take the opportunity to also attack freedom of the press, dehumanize trans people, and delegitimize scientific research and healthcare.
White House is now a branch of newsmax
Nah, newsmax has better editorial standards.
You’re actually right. Newsmax is still beholden to the law and has been taken to task over their bullshit.
The troubling thing is that this is Trump signaling the right wing media that it’s ok to go even harder.
Can we take the time to acknowledge that the phrase “fake news losers at cnn” was used in an official executive white house release? This is on par with the release they put out a couple weeks ago that spelled “executive” as ecexutive” 🥴🤡 America is cooked.
In theory this will be available for the remainder of the history of the United States too
this shit is so embarrassing. death to america, so we can take this down. please.
All of this needs to be, for the same reason what Nazi Germany did should be remembered. Humans are dumb fucks and WILL do this again (after the US collapse, I mean), but maybe it will be held it off for a bit longer.
sparing so many nazis the noose was kind of a huge mistake. re-wilding huge portions of germany would have been the move to try and cut out this social cancer. we transplanted that shit into every world power after the war.
TBF, Hitler got a lot of his ideas from the US. Germany was just a smaller and less ethnically diverse country than the US, so there was less resistance to fascism.
Letting the South off easy after the Civil war was the big mistake.
it was. it got us the nazis. letting a single confederate officer (who wasn’t a double agent or something) avoid the noose was such a huge mistake. not dispossessing everyone who claimed to own another human completely was also a mistake.
Same mistake the US made going easy on the South after the Civil War. Look where it got us.
yep, every single officer needed to hang if we wanted to genuinely win that war. at least have their families banned from holding any government office, elected or otherwise, and from holding more than a certain amount of property, for a generation or two.
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.
More than meets the eye!
I’m kind of torn on this one. I’ve seen the “transgenic” explanation in several other places, and as I normally do, my initial reaction was “Ha ha, stupid Trump.” (And also a deep underlying sadness that doesn’t ever really go away)
But I clicked the link on this post. They listed the grants referenced in their $8 million total. One did mention transgenic mice, though others could use transgenic mice and not specifically mention it. But if you click through to the grant proposals (which I assume DOGE did not write), every entry does indeed involve research on the effects of gender-affirming medication, even the one that mentions transgenic mice. To be clear, the other claim from media reports is also true - that these are grants for cancer and HIV research. But specifically, for things like the interaction between HIV vaccines and gender affirming meds.
To make my position clear, I support these studies. I think it’s important to study how asthma and cancer medications may affect the trans population differently than those not on gender-affirming meds. And you never know what additional discoveries will be made along the way. But I think that the response that MAGA got confused about transgender vs transgenic is disingenuous at best, if the information from this link is true (who knows if the 8 mill is the full contract or remaining values, etc).
I think diversity, equity, and inclusion are exactly what we need, and historically, a lot of harm has been caused by treating white male as default in medical studies. It is a truly terrible thing that they are canceling studies like these. But I think we need to recognize that when they say things like, Biden spent 8 million dollars trying to make mice transgender, what we’re dealing with is bait. They want us fighting over whether or not we made mice transgender. The point here is that this is yet another example of this Federal government usurping the power of the purse without being checked. They will always try to use small lies to hide the Big Lie.
Gender affirming does not mean Trans.
Testosterone creams and pills would be gender affirming medications. It’s probably important to know how those medications are going to react with other medications and conditions. 9 Mil for a study is a drop in the bucket.
Doge is chasing fragments of pennies, at a time where there are glaringly obvious actual loopholes and waste in the government.
… 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.
Thanks for the hint. Also CNN added context to their article.
The morning after Trump’s speech, the White House provided a list of $8.3 million in federal grants to health studies that involve mice receiving treatments that can be used in gender-affirming health care. The White House list made clear what Trump, in the speech, did not: The studies were meant to figure out how these treatments might affect the health of humans who take them, not for the purpose of making mice transgender.
What will they publish when they wind out that the government transcribes speeches and so on?
Yeah, they want to make genes trans now. The woke are out of control!
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.
It’s somehow even worse than Idiocracy.
Because in idiocracy they acted out of incompetence but were generally not bad people, this is just straight up malicious intent.
They probably have a Trump AI for this sort of thing.
Oh wow, I just realized that they could put an AI in office if Trump were to die, and the only way it could be found out is by lack of typos and correct grammar.
The I stands for idiocy
“Artificial Idiocy” does have a certain ring to it.
There’s nothing artificial about it.

/s?
so it’s not /s
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?
It will be hard you will have to work very hard now.
This is why I sorta roll my eyes at the people who cry about the sarcasm tag. Poe’s law is too strong, it always wins.
I’m quoting the press release, those aren’t my thoughts.
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.
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.

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.

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’.
They want to punish the Jews, yet they also back Israel?
Modern antisemites are heavily zionistic. They see Israel as the answer to the Jewish question, and use the backing of Israel to deflect any accusations of antisemitism.
Hitler’s initial plan was to send them to Madagascar. They’re happy for Israel to exist, and both Zionists and Neo Nazis are fine with making Jews outside of Israel feel very unsafe.
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
