Just out! Our peer-reviewed critique of the Cass Review has been published by BMC Medical Research Methodology. Please read and share. We show that the Cass Review is fatally flawed and should not be the basis for policy or practice in transgender healthcare.

Politics of gender-affirming care, Russiaโ€™s pursuit of Ukrainian territories A new report from Trumpโ€™s Department of Health and Human Services tries to discredit gender-affirming care, contradicting leading medical experts who say it can save lives.

I was just on NPR Member Station KCRW's "Press Play" where I fact check the Trump HHS Review targeting transgender healthcare.

โ€œThat they should be the ones to welcome Pope Francisโ€™s coffin in the basilica is because these people are those who represented the focus of his mission,โ€ said Father Giulio Albanese, head of missionary cooperation and communications for the Vicariate of Rome. โ€œThey are those who live on the peripheries, geographical and existential peripheries.โ€

The final honor guard for Pope Francis included migrants, prisoners, transgender people, the homeless and others selected by the Vicariate of Rome as a symbol of the late popeโ€™s mission of inclusion and outreach.

We've got Bill Kristol saying abolish ICE and standing up for trans people, David Brooks quoting the communist manifesto, and Sen. Van Hollen forcing a dictator to give proof of life of a hostage in a death camp.

Meanwhile, Dems like Newsom are doing podcasts with fascists.

Make it make sense.

A formal letter dated April 11, 2025, from U.S. government agencies addressed to Dr. Alan M. Garber and Penny Pritzker of Harvard University. The letter, featuring logos from the Department of Health and Human Services, Department of Education, and General Services Administration, expresses concerns about Harvard's failure to meet intellectual and civil rights expectations tied to federal funding. It proposes reforms as a basis for continuing financial support. Key provisions mentioned include governance and leadership reforms aimed at reducing influence from students and administrators focused on activism rather than scholarship.

Merit-Based Hiring Reform to eliminate race, color, religion, sex, or national origin preferences.

Merit-Based Admissions Reform to ensure objective, merit-based student selection with public data reporting.

International Admissions Reform to prevent admitting students hostile to American values or involved in anti-Semitic behavior.

Viewpoint Diversity in Admissions and Hiring requiring an external audit to ensure diversity of thought across all departments.

Whistleblower Reporting and Protections for those reporting noncompliance.

Transparency and Monitoring involving federal audits, reporting of foreign funding sources, and compliance with immigration data requirements.

The letter concludes with a call for immediate cooperation from Harvard to implement reforms and return to its core academic mission.

The Trump Administration sent Harvard a detailed list of extreme demands on Friday. It called for the dismantling of "DEI" Harvard centers, including a legal clinic, tha study human rights, and the surveillance of students political views.

Harvard has responded and rejected these demands.

The Trump Administration Is About To Release It's Own Anti-Trans, Junk-Science "Cass Review" The review is expected by insiders to establish new standards of care to justify state bans, with no expert participation in its crafting.

1. The Trump administration is about to release it's own anti-science "Cass Review," a sham review with pseudoscience that will be used to justify sweeping crackdowns on trans care in the United States.

No experts are involved in its drafting.
