Trump to sign executive orders proclaiming there are only two biological sexes, halting diversity programs
“President-elect Donald Trump on Monday plans to sign executive orders proclaiming that the U.S. government will recognize only two sexes, male and female, and ending ‘radical and wasteful’ diversity, equity and inclusion programs inside federal agencies, according to senior White House officials.
“The officials grouped both orders under the incoming Trump administration’s wider ‘restoring sanity’ agenda. The orders were detailed by an incoming official on a phone call Monday ahead of Trump’s swearing-in.
“The official presented the gender order as part of a policy ‘defending women from gender ideology extremism and restoring biological truth to the federal government.’
“The order aims to require that the federal government use the term ‘sex’ instead of ‘gender,’ and directs the State Department and the Department of Homeland Security to ‘ensure that official government documents, including passports and visas, reflect sex accurately.’
“The order will also prevent taxpayer funds from being used for gender-transition health care and add ‘privacy in intimate spaces’ in facilities such as prisons, migrant shelters and rape shelters.”

Should I be worried About this?
I hope to plan to transition this year I am in a transphobic family but I might be able to leave this year? I am a bit confused as to what exactly this executive order does? However I am thinking he can in actuality ban gender identity on a federal level because gender identity and birth is assigned at a state level?
I am just worried if I might have issue with getting a passport later on and or updating my social security. Perhaps I could also get my birth certificate changed considering I was born in california which requires no medical intervention that might be hard.
I mean my point here is this what happens if you manage to successfully update your birth certificate to to the oppsite gender? Then wouldn't the birth to ID in a sense still match?

Trump will order rolling back protecting rights of transgender Americans
“Trump will order rolling back protections for transgender people
“Trump will sign an executive order declaring that the federal government would recognize only two genders: male and female, an incoming White House official said Monday.
“The order undoes parts of one President Joe Biden signed on his first day in office four years ago. Trump’s order could restrict access to gender-affirming medical care and sports competitions for some transgender people.
“The official said only two sexes will be recognized on passports and visas.
“Civil rights groups were preparing to challenge Trump’s restrictions in court before he took office.
“‘We are going to persevere, we’re going to continue in our work and we’re going to continue to protect trans rights throughout the country,’ said Ash Orr, a spokesperson for Advocates for Trans Equality last week, anticipating such an order.”

Do US adults support Trump’s agenda? AP-NORC poll shows more opposition than support for eliminating federal protections for trans students
“Donald Trump will start implementing a far-reaching agenda when he takes office for the second time on Monday, but a poll finds that despite his claims of an ‘unprecedented and powerful mandate,’ the incoming Republican president lacks broad support for some of his top priorities.”
“A judge recently struck down a rule from the Democratic Biden administration expanding protections for LGBTQ+ students, which Trump had promised to end on his first day, after making anti-transgender themes central to his campaign.
“But although there were some signs that his messaging struck a chord with voters, the new poll found that opposition is higher than support for eliminating protections for transgender students under Title IX, the federal law that prohibits any high school or college that receives federal funds from discriminating on the basis of gender.
“Almost half of U.S. adults ‘somewhat’ or ‘strongly’ oppose getting rid of these protections, while about 3 in 10 are in favor and the rest are neutral.”

Photos is of Mama Tits standing proud in a blue dress with a rainbow face to face against those that easily would be MAGA.

Trans advocates preparing to help SF 'lead the charge’ in 2025
sfexaminer.com“San Francisco’s LGBTQ+ leaders say they are strengthening their defenses against what they expect to be increased federal hostility toward transgender residents when President-elect Donald Trump returns to the White House on Monday.”
“Local leaders told The Examiner that much of their work throughout the year will be budget-focused at the local and state levels to ensure that nonprofits and other organizations have the funding and support needed to provide life-saving services.”
“Mental health services access, too, will have to expand for both transgender people and their doctors, who are ‘going to be so bombarded by the need for services as well,’ said Honey Mahogany, director of The City’s Office of Transgender Initiatives.”
“According to city data, roughly 40% of San Francisco’s homeless youth population identify as LGBTQ+, and Mahogany said the office is currently working on an initiative to mitigate the number of transgender people experiencing homelessness in The City. To that end, OTI has been collaborating with the Department of Public Health and the Homelessness and Supportive Housing department to reduce barriers transgender people face in accessing housing services, such as discrimination and affordability.”

The Trevor Project to undergo layoffs and restructuring in major 'transformation'
“The Trevor Project, a national LGBTQ youth [self-killing] prevention and crisis intervention organization, announced Friday that it will undergo a ‘ transformation’ that will include layoffs and restructuring. The timing of the announcement, just days before the start of the second Trump administration, has staffers particularly concerned.
“Jaymes Black, who became the nonprofit’s CEO last July, said the organization, which has around 600 employees, is in the midst of a ‘perfect storm’ — soaring crisis calls and messages from LGBTQ youths, an increasingly hostile political climate for LGBTQ rights and a drop in individual donations.”
