Summary
Donald Trump signed an executive order rolling back transgender and diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies, reversing key measures introduced by Joe Biden.
The new order declares the federal government will recognize only two genders and bans agencies from promoting gender transitions.
Federal documents, prisons, and agencies must comply.
Trump also targeted environmental justice grants and diversity training programs.
Civil rights groups condemned the move, pledging legal challenges.
Don’t worry. According to
Russiansideological purists, this outcome is better for my trans son than if Kamala Harris had won.Now if you’ll pardon me, I have to get back to working on moving my family out of this shit-hole country.
Can’t afford rice and bread, .01% hold more wealth than the rest combined, but persecuting trans people and renaming the Gulf of Mexico will fix those problems…… how?
What problems? None of this is affecting a billionaire negatively.
Well he did sign an executive order “addressing the cost of living crisis,” so rice and bread prices are all fixed now! If only Sleepy Joe thought to sign something! /s
Yeah but what about the price of eggs?
Went up to 10 dollars.
At least the people in Gaza are okay now.
people in Gaza*
* - Israeli settlers who are no longer being sanctioned by the US.
Pretty sure none of the residents of Gaza is okay right now, even though the bombing has temporarily paused.
That’s the point…Gaza protest voters are bigger suckers than trump voters…
Yeah. As dumb as the trump voters are, they at least got what they wanted. There’s a time and place for a protest vote, but it’s not when so much is on the line. Oh well, the protest voters and their families can go to the death camps knowing that they really stuck it to Kamala…
Congratulations on helping fascism win, you are equally culpable for everything that happens for the next 4 years as Biden was in Gaza. And I hope you lose just as much sleep over it.
MULTIPLE orders once you read past the language on merit based hiring.
Full text of each order here:
First, roll back 78 Biden orders on various protections:
INITIAL RESCISSIONS OF HARMFUL EXECUTIVE ORDERS AND ACTIONS
Defending Women From Gender Ideology Extremism And Restoring Biological Truth To The Federal Government
Ending Radical And Wasteful Government DEI Programs And Preferencing
Reforming The Federal Hiring Process And Restoring Merit To Government Service
I’m gagging on the phrase “Defending Women” in the context of anything done by this rapist and his misogynist forced-birther cronies. Especially as a cynical “justification” for denying/destroying the lives of nonbinary, trans and intersex people.
(Look at Melania’s Defense Hat, she knows who women need protection from.)
