Debunking Trump’s Claims on Transgender Mice

During his address to Congress, Trump mistakenly confused transgenic mice with transgender mice, raising concerns about his understanding of what he is saying.  It appears that no one is fact-checking his statements, or perhaps Grampa Trump was simply confused or uninformed. This is particularly alarming considering he has control over the nuclear button!

Transgenic mice, also known as genetically modified mice, are mice whose genomes have been altered using genetic engineering techniques. These mice are commonly used in research as models for human diseases and to study genes. The NIH recognized the significance of this technology in 1994, noting its impact on various fields of biology.

In a bizarre turn of events, Trump mentioned Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency during his speech, claiming the organization found wasteful spending in the federal budget, including $8 million allegedly spent on making mice transgender. This absurd statement was made on live television, highlighting the lack of understanding behind the proposed budget cuts.

It is concerning that major decisions affecting federal agencies and employees are being made without proper research or consideration. It seems that when you vote for the clown, you also get the circus. Let’s hope for more informed and responsible leadership in the future!
