@cbsnews: Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins stated on X that a $600,000 grant to Southern University in Louisiana was being revoked for studying "menstrual cycles in transgender men," in the latest mischaracterization of a grant that was then canceled by the Trump administration's Department of Government Efficiency team, known as DOGE. DOGE highlighted the Rollins post, reposting it on the official doge.gov website and on X. The grant was actually intended for research on the potential health risks posed by synthetic feminine hygiene products and for developing alternatives using natural fibers and fabrics, according to the project's documentation, which was publicly filed on the USDA website.

It’s like they did a search and find and didn’t actually read it before canceling it

They use ai to detect key words and arbitrarily decide based on findings.

Why are they so focused on demonizing such a small portion of the population? What do they gain from this? It’s just hate. Everyone needs medical care. I can’t believe I hate this country.

Hey CBS, let’s assume this is true. Why aren’t you writing stories about all the legitimate proven fraud that they have found. Your bias cherry picking isn’t news. You are fake news.

Ladies, we are over half the population. "Women" is literally on their banned words list. They're removing us from everything, our contributions, our health research, our choices, our voice. Stand up!

Are there not already a lot of product on the market for women who are menstruating? I mean, wouldn’t it be the same product for a woman who thinks she’s a man? I don’t see the need for more research

600,000? That’s peanuts. JHC, if people don’t stop thinking $100k and $1B are even remotely close, we’re doomed. Just losing services for headlines.

They still would have cancelled it because a) it benefits women and b) is sustainable
