Trump, White Coat Waste, and DOGE Expose Transgender Animal Tests While Left-Wing Media Continues to Push ‘Transgenic’ Fake News

President Donald Trump recently praised the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), led by Elon Musk, for exposing and halting disturbing taxpayer-funded experiments on animals, specifically pointing to transgender tests funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH).

Left-wing media outlets, including CNN, Mediaite, and NBC, have scrambled to spin the narrative, falsely claiming Trump confused “transgender” with “transgenic” mice, even though taxpayer watchdog White Coat Waste has extensively documented how NIH and other federal agencies wasted 100s of millions to create “transfemale” and “transmasculine” lab animals via surgeries and hormones to mimic transgender people.

In an article about Trump bringing up the transgender tests during his address before Congress, CNN initially claimed Trump had misspoken, suggesting he meant “transgenic” mice, genetically modified animals used in medical research, instead of “transgender” mice. This framing implied Trump was either ignorant or deliberately misleading. However, CNN’s fact-check fell apart when the White House provided documentation confirming the studies involved hormone treatments on mice to mimic transgender human conditions, not genetic modifications.

Only one of the NIH studies mentioned “transgenic” mice, and even then, it was in the context of transgender analogs. These mice were not even “transgenic” in the traditional sense. They were hormonally altered to study biological effects, a process that doesn’t align with the media’s spin.

CNN was forced to issue a correction, admitting their initial report was inaccurate.

Despite the correction, some journalists, like NBC’s White House correspondent Garrett Haake, continue to peddle this disinformation and ignore the retraction.

In a post on X, Haake called the transgender lab tests a “thoroughly debunked claim,” but was quickly met with photos of the experiments by WCW Vice President Justin Goodman.

In a comment about the media lies, Goodman told The Gateway Pundit:

“Despite a desperate disinformation campaign claiming otherwise, President Trump is absolutely right that the Biden Administration wasted millions to create transgender mice. I should know since White Coat Waste’s viral investigation uncovered this senseless spending and I testified before the House Oversight Committee about how agencies like the NIH and NSF squandered tax dollars to create “transfemale” and “transmasculine” lab animals with surgeries and hormones to mimic gender transitions in kids and adults and then subject the animals to electroshocks, infections, wounds, and drug overdoses.

White Coat Waste commends President Trump and DOGE for slashing senseless spending on sickening sex changes for lab animals uncovered by our investigation. These Trump cuts prompted by WCWs campaign are saving thousands of animals and millions of tax dollars from government abuse.

It’s shameful that instead of acknowledging this progress to protect animals and taxpayers, biased reporters are still denying the well-documented existence of cruel transgender animal experiments and spreading disinformation just to discredit Donald Trump.”

Before President Donald Trump and the Department of Government Efficiency began slashing funds, $400 million in active grants were allocated in whole or in part to the study of transgender animal testing. These experiments ranged from surgically altering the gonads of rats to mimic sex-change procedures to force-feeding testosterone to adolescent mice.

In one example, a $1,155,503 grant, uncovered by White Coat Waste and highlighted by The Gateway Pundit, gave $1,155,503 to the University of the Pacific to castrate male rats and inject them with estrogen, remove female rats’ ovaries and inject them with testosterone, and then overdose them with GHB to “evaluate the potential for altered toxicity/overdose risk in transgender men and women.”

“GHB toxicokinetics will be evaluated in OVX and castrated animals in the presence or absence of individual male and female sex hormones. Hormone replacement studies in the opposite sex (cross-sex hormone therapy) will evaluate the potential for altered toxicity/overdose risk in transgender men and women,” the grant description reads.

The grant was part of the National Institutes of Health’s diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) program.

The university boasted that the research “spotlights Pacific’s commitment to diversity and inclusion. The NIH SCORE Program is designed to increase the research support at institutions such as Pacific with a history of training and graduating students from groups underrepresented in the biomedical sciences.”

Over 500 animals were slated to have sex changes and ultimately be killed for this research.

Other now-defunct research included a $299,240 grant to create “transmasculine” lab animals by giving female mice testosterone and removing their ovaries and a $442,444 grant to sterilize animals, inject them with hormone therapies, and then inflict wounds to mimic transgender humans receiving gender-affirming surgeries.
