They’re turning the frogs mice gay trans!
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.
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.
The I stands for idiocy
“Artificial Idiocy” does have a certain ring to it.
There’s nothing artificial about it.
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.
You’ll know when he seemingly gains 20 iq points.

/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.
Easy. Elect Democrats in a landslide in 2026. Impeach Trump, send him to jail for the rest of his life. Impeach and arrest anyone complicit with his crimes. Replace those open seats with more Democrats. Put heavy restrictions on Vance and drum him out in 2028.
Holding corrupt people accountable is the only way out.
Voting isn’t enough. We need a plan B and it will take hard work. We need capable organizers, physical security, mutual aid, economists, doctors, and more. If that’s you, please consider joining the DSA.
Conservatives have stacked the system in their favor through gerrymandering, coups, politicized courts, voter intimidation, and at times outright fraud. Not to mention that many Democrats vote alongside Republicans in favor of the oligarchs.
Vote, yes, but also please help us make a society that renders oligarchy obsolete.
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.

I mean even CNN issued a clarification of their own fact check that says what he said is true. Just in typical Trump fashion he worded his rant like a 5 year old that found a thesaurus.
eventhough cnn shills for trump in some form.
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.
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.

Which is such an easy strategy to counter if the dems could just grow up. All you have to do is some outrageous act or make some outrageous claim and the zone will get more flooded pushing out the gop shit. It’s not a good way to do news but we have to stop trying to counter bullshit with plain reason. It’s not effective. We need to first get the bullshit out of the lime light then tackle it in smaller settings where facts can be agreed on. The “zone” is better suited for cat memes and what ever else, not political shit.
… 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.
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.
I agree. I saw a point brought up elsewhere that the asthma study included research on whether there is a difference with asthma rate before and after MTF participants took estrogen. The reasoning being that the prevalence of asthma among females compared to males tends to double by the end of puberty, so having trans participants in the study allows them to isolate the effects of estrogen in an ethical way. Very cool happenstance.
But no, the point here was not whether the science is good or bad, as you and I both full well know. The point was to Ctrl+F “transgender” in government-funded study abstracts and cancel all of them you can find so you can tell your base you’re hurting the people they wanted you to hurt. While you rob the nation blind with the other hand. MAGA doesn’t care that the research might have helped them. They don’t care that 9 million bucks is only a drop in the bucket. They have centered their lives around how important it is to win. All they care about is that they feel like they’re winning.
The point was to Ctrl+F “transgender”
I think they are literally doing a Ctrl+F on “trans”. I can’t wait to find out how much the military spends on transmissions. It’s probably why they are so keen on getting rid of trans service members.
Thanks for sharing this thought. I had the same feelings and was disappointed to see that many of us are falling into the same headline clickbait trap that we accuse the other side of. Thankfully, you’re getting plenty of upvotes.
Yes, the word transgenic was used in the description of the one of the funded studies. However that same cited study is intentionally attempting to study the effects of androgen treatment on reproductive health for the benefit of transgender individuals.
I do not condone this ridiculous writing from an official Whitehouse press release. I also fully approve of every single study listed. But the “haha they’re dumb” rhetoric is not helpful. What’s helpful is encouraging people to demand sources, think critically, and hold authority figures accountable when they lie.

Yeah, they want to make genes trans now. The woke are out of control!
What will they publish when they wind out that the government transcribes speeches and so on?
More than meets the eye!
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 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’.
And by “elites,” they mean anyone that might be more intelligent than them, and have the gall to use that intelligence for academic or scientific purposes.
Yeah, of course. The actual elites that own all the wealth are with them as long as they make the right noises. There’s no guarantees after they’ve solidified power though.
They want to punish the Jews, yet they also back Israel?
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.
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.
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.
Maybe instead of fact checking, we should keep dropping little truth nuggets that sound like lies but are actually true.

“They also spent millions on transgender cars!”
“That says transmission repair”
“TRANS.”

Not the frogs!
Omg, I forgot about the forggs!!
We must make the frogs gayer
This is going to seem unrelated, but I wish my fellow countrymen didn’t have a virtually unlimited appetite for finding out.
They’re not turning mice ‘trans’; they’re turning science into a circus for political clowns.

Hello wonderful new meme template.
Indeed.

Millions?
Hundreds of millions. Maybe even billions, if he was able to find enough couches.
Spent after!
To shreds you say?

I feel like that should qualify as libel. I know Biden is a public figure so the rules are loose, but that’s gotta be crossing a line.
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:
It is slowly becoming globally known how absolutely stupid the current administration is.
Slowly?
Yeah. Believe it or not the US is not the center of everyone’s universe.
