Excerpt from Slate, a extremely right-wing sight  Roll Eyes



On Friday, the Washington Post reported that the Trump administration had banned  certain scientific words from use at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. According to an unnamed, outraged CDC source, higher-ups instructed staffers to avoid seven phrases in budget documents: vulnerable, entitlement, diversity, transgender, fetus, evidence-based, and science-based. In the days since, editorials have likened this to censorship in China, Cuba, and Belarus; to Polish laws prohibiting certain language to describe the Holocaust; and to the totalitarian regime described in 1984.* Follow-up reports said the “irrational and very dangerous” policy on budget language might put “millions of lives in danger” with its “an astonishing attack on reality-based medical treatment.”

But if reality is indeed in danger here, it’s not because of Donald Trump. The story of the language rules at CDC has quickly broken free of underlying facts. Despite what you may have heard, the alleged “ban” of seven words does not reveal a secret “War on Science” carried out by thought police in Washington; nor is it some evil plot to “enforce a political and ideological agenda,” as the Washington Post editorial board suggested. A more sober measure of this soggy crumb of news—one that’s, well, evidence-based rather than reflexive—suggests it should be understood as a byproduct of the Trump administration’s much-less-secret war on science funding. It appears that the ban is an attempt by bureaucrats to save their favorite projects from unforgiving budget cuts.

Naah, Trump sat down at the desk and put on his crown and wrote the banned words and sent them off, in a pure exercise of tyrannical Power.
Ohhh, wait,, I Called This!
I was Right!
Again!

Will anyone admit their duping here?

Don’t hold your breath.
How many stories does it take?
It shows the intention is not in journalism, no...
But pure ideology driven.

Folks ain’t that dumb.

They clamp down on every indicator that their beliefs are correct. That's natural. What's unnatural is to CONTINUE to believe Trump is some idiotic ogre after being WRONG over and over and over.

I'm fully expecting the people who oppose the tax cuts to take the money they have now and send it to the government.
