Trump's \$8 Million 'Transgender Mice' Claim Debunked
A recent claim by Donald Trump alleging that the US government spent \$8 million on making mice transgender has been widely circulated. However, this claim is inaccurate. According to a recent video by Receipts Only, the funding was actually part of an NIH research project investigating the effects of hormones on brain function, specifically in relation to conditions like autism and depression. "They weren't transitioning mice for fun," Receipts Only stated. "It's neuroscience, not gender studies for gerbils." The video highlights the importance of verifying information, particularly in the context of political discourse. The actual research, though not focused on gender transition, is relevant to understanding human health and development. The video serves as a reminder to critically examine information before accepting it as fact, especially in the age of widespread misinformation.
