Trump approved words to be used by the CDC. Good, bad, sad, fake, fake news, and everyone knows.
Diversity
science-based
evidence basedā¦
Just to make things perfectly clearā¦you cannot say the word āJehovahā either.
These things are enforced by funding levels. Researchers are stuck having to write proposals to government agencies to do their work. In this months Science there is an article about how DOE is requesting the words āclimate changeā be removed from their proposals.
āC.D.C. bases its recommendations on science in consideration with community standards and wishes.ā
āAnd since most red states face an obesity crisis, and in accordance with community standards, 32ā/s/s is hereby annulled for all Confederate areas.ā
Not all damage is reversible.
They call that entity āpre-bornā. gag.
Which is funny because that is the last thing Carlin would believe. Carlin wad clearly an atheist.
Thereby hangs a dogās tail.
Oh! Me! Me! Call on me!
Thought police!
They sense a disturbance in the Force?

DTās new CDC Director. Itās also disturbing that he said heās āgoing to re-build the FBIā.
From a November NYT article after the VA elections:
"In Washington State, Democrats won a special election to take control of the State Senate, establishing total Democratic dominance of government on the West Coast. Democrats took council seats in vote-rich Delaware County, Pa., in the Philadelphia suburbs, a perennial congressional battleground. Even in the Deep South, Georgia Democrats captured two State House seats where they previously had not even fielded candidates while snatching a State Senate seat in Buckhead, an upscale area of Atlanta. Chris Vance, a former chairman of the Washington State Republican Party, placed the blame squarely on Mr. Trump:
āAmong college-educated suburbanites, he is a pariah.ā
The current Republicans in Congress donāt give a shit, but the long-term damage that Trump and his fluffers in the GOP are doing to its prospects among the college-educated are catastrophic, just as they are with respect to minorities and women. If you poll the college-educated, youāll find that those who do continue to support Trump or Republicans are basically the Fox News demographic: old and white.
Among young college-educated, support for Trump and the GOP is cratering. If you subtract out those whose degrees are from Bible colleges, the percentage of current students and recent college graduates of accredited public universities and private liberal arts colleges who support Republicans is even lower. The GOP is very far down the road of being a political party primarily for white nativist bigots and racists evangelicals and other conservative religious nuts without college degrees.
With apologies to Joan Didion, these people have made 2017 the Year of Magical Thinking. If you donāt want collusion, you keep repeating, āthere was no collusionā in order to make it so. If you disapprove of transgenderism, science or other inconvenient concepts, you just ban the words that describe them and they will disappear. This isnāt Orwell, this is just plain ridiculous.
I am so stealing thisā¦
