Donnie Demento’s Ridiculous “Transgender Mice” Claim

Following President Donald Trump's claims earlier this week that the Biden government allocated $8 million so that scientists could attempt to make mice transgender, people have been left to try and figure out what exactly he's talking about. Experts quickly realized that Trump was likely confusing "transgender" with "transgenic," which refers to mice that have had foreign DNA mixed with theirs. It's primarily done with human DNA, so that experiments can be conducted to see how certain medications or illnesses interact with the rodents, and thus teach us more about how they might affect humans.

49.8% of the people who voted voted for Trump. That number is not to be confused with the American population or the American population that was eligible to vote at the time of the election.

[P]reliminary data from the University of Florida's Election Lab shows many millions of Americans who were eligible to vote in the 2024 general election did not.
