CDC, Where Family Is Not Enough

Here is the truth — the only truth about human biology.

The human body contains somewhere around 37,000,000,000,000 cells( a fluid number) and each one of those 37 trillion cells contains DNA which is identical to the DNA in the other 36,999,999,999,999 other cells. That DNA is organized into chromosomes. Those chromosomes define who we are. Among those chromosomes are what we call an “X” chromosome and a “Y” chromosome.

Intellectually, the chromosomes can be paired at reproduction into XX, XY, YY. Biologically YY is not a possibility. Why? Because men are characterized by an XY pair and Women by an XX pair. No matter how hard one tries the only scientifically allowed combinations are XX (females) and XY (males). Period.

Here is another fun fact: No matter ow many hormone blockers or hormone injections or disfiguring surgeries you have in an attempt to change your gender/sex you still have 37,000,000,000,000 cells that have the identical DNA and the identical combination of either an XX or XY chromosomes.

Gender is not “assigned” at birth it is determined at conception. You are what you are from the moment of conception until the day you die and it never changes.

That passage was taken from an article I published a bit more than two years ago. I reproduced this passage here because it is best argument for the elimination of DASH.

More than one week has passed since President Trump ordered all DEI activities in all federal agencies to cease and for all personnel involved in creating and promoting DEI content be placed on administrative leave. DASH, that is CDC, continues to post content on CDC.gov that promotes LGBTQ+ ideology and treats so-called transgender individuals particularly children, as if they are a distinct biological entity separate from XX and XY individuals and not individuals in need of competent mental health support.

Nowhere on CDC.gov is the posting of LGBTQ+ content more egregious than on the DASH page which provides links to GLSEN as well as other pages that instruct schools how to create sex education programs for teens which includes instruction on LGBTQ+ ideology and how to create in-school Condom Availability Programs for children.

Prior to issuing his Executive Order which ends hiring and other personnel practices based on “Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI)”, the foundation for inclusion of LGBTQ+ ideology in our daily lives, the President declared transgenderism to be a form of “insanity” and that so-called gender affirming care is “child abuse” and “child sexual mutilation”.

In 2022 I wrote In Loco parentis. In Loco Deus. In that piece I described how CDC and other agencies and corporations were actively engaged in replacing parental and faith based authority with school authority. That continues today at CDC.

This past Friday and Monday (yesterday) I submitted media requests to the CDC Office of Media Relations in which I noted that they had yet to comply with President Trump’s DEI executive order and asked if they had a schedule for compliance with that EO. I did, of course, make it clear that I intend to publish a story about their compliance with the EO. On Friday they failed to respond. Yesterday that Office stated that they would contact me but as of this morning they have not. It is clear that CDC has no intention responding or of complying with the President’s Executive Order.

CDC, under Rochelle Walensky and now, following issuance of the President’s EO concerning DEI activities, has established a pattern of being above the law. The immediate response should be the termination of the CDC Division of Adolescent and Student Health.
