While the progressive media are preoccupied with rioting and race baiting, the Trump administration Friday rolled out a very important administrative change that under different circumstances cold have sparked riots of its own. Daniel Payne of Just the News reports:

The Trump administration on Friday announced revised federal policy regarding sex discrimination, rolling back an Obama-era rule that had redefined "sex" under federal antidiscrimination statute to include a broad, subjective interpretation of "gender identity."
The earlier rule change was a concession to LGBT activists, who in recent years have sought to have significantly broadened interpretations of sex enshrined into local, state and federal law.

The rule expanded sex to include "an individual’s internal sense of gender, which may be male, female, neither, or a combination of male and female." Entities that fall under federal Title IX statute were forbidden from discriminating against anyone on the basis of that revised definition.

A press release from the Department of Health and Human Services on Friday announced that the government was formally rolling back that re-definition, returning to a strictly objective definition of the word "sex" as determined by biological indicators.

Expect progressives heads exploding over this one.. Trump is killing the left slowly with new Court appointments of conservative judges.

I really like the old America I remember growing up under.
There was only two sexes, male and female.
Anyone who deviated, kept it to themselves, and it was not an option for public display.
People were expected to work, and expected to be paid properly for it.

Feelings were just emotions, and laws were not devised because people had them.

People were expected to keep their promises, and a handshake was as legally binding than as a signature.

There used to be a God.
Like him, love him, or fear him.
People used to understand that being alive on this planet was a gift, not a right.

The golden rule was not just a suggestion, but a very strong standard.

Things used to last, and we never bought a thing from China.

Anything Trump does that brings us closer to those forgotten, abandoned thoughts and times, is just fine with me.
