/1 🔎 BOMBSHELL — Internal docs obtained from our lawsuit against HHS reveal that 19 federal health agencies endorsed a plan to transform healthcare on the principle that gender is “multidimensional,” not biological.

Anti-science radicals have declared war on science: Image
/2 In an email from April 27, 2022, HHS Assistant Secretary for Health “Rachel” Levine sent an email to the “LGBTQI+ Coordinating Committee Members” with a presentation from the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine on “Measuring Sex, Gender Identity, and Sexual Orientation.”Image
/3 In the email, Assistant Secretary Levine states “I fully support these recommendations and offer any assistance needed in the implementation of the recommendations.” Image
/4 The presentation is notably paid for by taxpayer dollars and funded by 19 entities within NIH including the “Sexual & Gender Minority Research Office” and the “Office of the Director, Office of Equity, Diversity & Inclusion.” Image
/5 In the introduction slide, the presentation asserts that “better measurements of sex, gender identity, and sexual orientation will also improve the ability to identify sexual and gender minority populations and understand the challenges they face.” Image
/6 The presentation goes on to define the “Statement of Task” and the “issues related to measuring sex as a nonbinary construct…” Image
/7 The presentation then begins to break down definitions including sex, gender, and “gender identities.”

Notably, they define “sex” as a “multidimensional construct,” that is “most often defined at birth.” Image
/8 They define “gender” as something that is “conceptually distinct” from sex and “often conceptualized as binary…in Western cultures.” 

According to the presentation, gender is also “multidimensional.” Image
/9 They then go on to include several definitions for “gender identities” including, “two-spirit”  and “genderfluid.” Image
/10 The presentation includes a laundry list of definitions for “sexual orientation identities” including “questioning” and “same gender loving.”
Image
Image
/11 The presentation includes a slide titled “The Importance of Conceptual Clarity: Sex and Gender” which claims that “each comprise of multiple dimensions,” without further clarification as to what this actually means. Image
/12 Ultimately, the report comes to the conclusion that “A person’s gender is associated with but cannot be reduced to either sex assigned at birth or specific sex traits. Therefore, data collection efforts should not conflate sex as a biological variable with gender or otherwise treat the respective concepts as interchangeable.”Image
/13 The presentation also contains a chart that breaks down the “Conceptual and Empirical Distinctions for Transgender Measures:” Image
/14 Then, a recommendation is presented that “the standard for the National Institutes of Health should be to collect data on gender and report it by default.”

Effectively, Assistant Secretary Levine has indicated “full support” for disregarding biological sex at the NIH. Image
/15 In another slide, the panel provides a recommendation that the NIH should differentiate questions between sex on one’s birth certificate and their “current gender.” Image
/16 It also recommends further funding to conduct research at NIH on a range of radical topics related to gender extremism, including “alternate wording for the ‘straight’ response option.”
Image
Image
/17 This dystopian presentation would be laughable if it wasn’t being utilized to make policy decisions that impact all Americans…
/18 Assistant Secretary Levine’s radical transgender ideology is currently being implemented across the nation’s health apparatus. The Biden administration is working every day is destroy fundamental truth, i.e. biological sex, and force the American people to adopt their radical “gender identity” ideology.
/19 It should concern all Americans that the government officials who are charged with preventing pandemics, curing diseases, and providing health advice to the entire United States are occupied with redefining sex into a “multidimensional construct.”
/20 AFL obtained these documents through litigation against HHS to a FOIA request for Assistant Secretary Levine’s communications regarding pediatric “transgender clinics,” otherwise known as the genital mutilation and sterilization of America’s children.
/21 This presentation serves as further evidence that the Biden administration’s gender extremism is being pushed to the highest levels of our federal government, all at the taxpayers’ expense. 

This anti-science ideology must be stopped:

Fox News on AFL’s complaint against the Dodgers:

“A federal civil rights complaint has been filed with the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission against the Los Angeles Dodgers… for allegedly engaging in ‘unlawful discrimination.’ Image
“The complaint was filed by America First Legal, the nonprofit conservative public interest organization, against both entities, which are led by Mark Walter, the majority owner of the Dodgers and CEO of Guggenheim Partners.” Image
“‘Their employment practices, as described below, appear to discriminate against employees, or prospective employees, solely because of their skin color or sex. This is patently unlawful,’ AFL’s complaint, which was provided to Fox News Digital, began.” Image

/1🚨BREAKING — AFL just SUED IBM for illegal DEI-driven discrimination.

IBM leadership on a team call:

“Look at all the black and brown faces on this call.”

“If he keeps it up, he can expect a long career at IBM and lots of bonuses.” Image
/2 With JW Howard Attnys, AFL filed a lawsuit on behalf of John Loeffler, a high-performing technical seller for IBM’s Cloud Platform who spent nearly a decade delivering results.

IBM targeted him for termination because he didn’t check its DEI boxes:

❌ Older

/1🚨BREAKING — AFL filed a federal civil rights complaint against Colorado State University with the Department of Education for ILLEGAL DEI policies violating the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and President Trump’s Executive Order, “Ending Illegal Discrimination and Restoring Merit.” Image
/2 CSU President Amy Parsons sent a campus-wide letter claiming the university complies with federal law — despite clear evidence to the contrary.

Rather than ending its unlawful DEI programs, CSU simply renamed them to create the illusion of compliance.
/3 CSU’s “Office of Inclusive Excellence” overhauled its website to hide illegal DEI policies — but scrubbing the language doesn’t change the reality.

These policies are still enforced across campus, and CSU continues to violate federal law.
