Trump to end diversity programs, define two genders: official

Raw Story  

U.S. President Donald Trump will issue a series of executive orders targeting diversity programs and gender identity policies Monday, moving swiftly to deliver on divisive campaign promises to dismantle "woke" culture. An incoming White House official told reporters ahead of the presidential inauguration Trump will order the US government to recognize only two biological sexes as well as to end federal diversity programs. The government would also only recognize two genders -- male and female -- ending official policies that recognized a third gender, denoted by an "X" on US passports for example. They added that the incoming administration would move to "terminate all discriminatory programs" while "This includes environmental justice programs, equity related grants, equity action plans, equity initiatives, these types of things," the Trump official said.
