Ahead of his presidential inauguration on Monday, Donald Trump revealed plans to issue orders that will define the United States’ stance on biological sex and diversity training programs. According to an incoming White House official, Trump will direct the government to officially recognize only two biological sexes: male and female.
“What we’re doing today is defining that it is the policy of the United States to recognize two sexes: male and female,” the official stated, outlining the administration’s position on the matter.
In addition to this controversial move, Trump announced plans to eliminate federal government diversity programs, which have been a focal point of debate over the years. The official highlighted an instance where the Department of Treasury included diversity training programs that claimed “all white people, regardless of how woke they are, contribute to racism.” Trump’s administration intends to end funding for these programs, with a focus on eliminating what the official described as divisive initiatives.
These decisions come as Trump begins his second term in office, following his historic comeback to the presidency. His stance on these issues signals a sharp continuation of his commitment to conservative values and a focus on curbing government-sponsored diversity initiatives.
Critics of Trump’s approach argue that these policies could exacerbate divisions in an already polarized nation, while supporters believe the moves represent a much-needed step toward reinforcing traditional American values. The coming days will reveal the full extent of these directives and their potential impact on government operations and societal dynamics.
