Donald Trump signs executive order rolling back many transgender rights & protections

Story by Daniel Villarreal (21 Jan 2025)

Among the roughly 200 executive actions, memoranda and proclamations that Donald Trump signed on his first day as president was an executive order declaring that there are only two sexes (male and female) and repealing numerous pro-transgender memoranda and orders made by former President Joe Biden.

In response to the order, Human Rights Campaign President Kelley Robinson said in a statement, "Make no mistake: these actions will not take effect immediately." Indeed, many of the order's provisions provide a 30-day deadline to go into effect.

"Today's expected executive actions targeting the LGBTQ+ community serve no other purpose than to hurt our families and our communities," Robinson added. "Every person deserves to be treated with dignity and respect in all areas of their lives. No one should be subjected to ongoing discrimination, harassment, and humiliation where they work, go to school, or access healthcare."

 "Any attack on our rights threatens the rights of any person who doesn't fit into the narrow view of how they should look and act. The incoming administration is trying to divide our communities in the hope that we forget what makes us strong. But we refuse to back down or be intimidated."

It's my hope that we'll all look back on this and laugh in a few years time, when he's been impeached 17 times, tried to start world war three probably half a dozen times, and come out with more stupid stuff than the cast of Monty Python on Nitrous Oxide.

On a serious note though. As much as I'm worried about what he's going to try and get up to, I'm probably more worried that a majority of America voted him in. A significant majority this time. He didn't get where he is on his own merits. The guy's a charismatic idiot. I hope he can't run a third time. And... that sentiment in your country changes. Because he's just the pimple on the tip of the blackhead. If people didn't agree with him, we wouldn't even be talking about this.
