Scrubbed

Feb 20th, 2025 5:04 pm | By

Wes Streeting objects.

Wes Streeting has raised concerns after a Telegraph investigation found that doctors who change gender are able to have past wrongdoings scrubbed from the public record.

The Health Secretary said the General Medical Council (GMC), which regulates doctors, should urgently overhaul its practices, adding the situation should “not have been allowed”.

The GMC holds a public register of all doctors, allowing the public to check whether a medic has been subject to restrictions or suspensions, or has been struck off.

However, on Thursday the watchdog admitted that it erases the public disciplinary history of doctors who change their gender identities.

It raises the prospect that medics seeking to hide a chequered disciplinary history could exploit the system by choosing to change their gender identity in order to erase their past. It also means a female patient who specifically requested a female doctor would be unable to find out if their [her] doctor was born a man [and thus is a man].

On Thursday night, Mr Streeting demanded immediate changes from the regulator. He told The Telegraph: “This is extremely concerning, and should not have been allowed to happen.”

But but but trans people are special so of course it should have been allowed to happen.

WHAT?!!

Doctors who change gender are allowed to scrub past wrongdoing from public record

Because changing gender=a new and improved doctor who has never done any harm to anyone?

Sandie Peggie’s case against NHS Fife for alleged harassment after the nurse raised concerns about a trans colleague has caused alarm among women and campaigners across the country. The NHS, she claims, was prioritising the rights of Dr Beth Upton, a trans doctor who was born male but insisted on using the women’s changing room, over her rights to a single-sex space.

Now, it can be revealed that the General Medical Council (GMC), which regulates doctors, takes an even more extreme stance on trans medics – effectively scrubbing the public disciplinary history of doctors who change their identities in this way.

“If a doctor had received a historical sanction [i.e. the suspension is no longer in place] prior to transitioning, this information would not be available on their new public-facing record on the medical register,” says a GMC spokesman. The GMC confirms that Dr Upton is one of 62 doctors to have been given new registrations under different GMC numbers.

It’s reminding me of The Church and the concept of sainthood. Swapping gender=sainthood.

Except of course that it doesn’t. Rather the opposite: it encourages narcissism, bullying, dominance, entitlement, and similar repellent qualities. Look at Upton just for one.



Guest post: The road isn’t going to get any shorter

Originally a comment by Your Name’s not Bruce? on Congress is supine.

Musk warned Republican lawmakers in December that he was compiling a “naughty list” of members who buck Trump’s agenda. He also pledged shortly after Election Day that his political action committee would “play a significant role in primaries” next year.

A Republican senator told The Hill that Musk’s wealth makes primary threats “a bigger deal.”

One hopes that at some point, it will become a badge of honour to have opposed Trump. Unfortunately, that time is not now. What America needs are Republican members of Congress who realize Trump is destroying the country. They have to stop being okay with that. By supporting a man who famously refused to show his own tax return, you’ve surrendered the tax information of all Americans to his attack dog. It shouldn’t make a difference whether the billionaire digging through this information to which he should not have been given access is named Soros or Musk; trespass is trespass. Trump does not own the “property” to which he has given Musk free admission. Republicans have to learn to care for their country’s future more than their own political career. They have to stand up, and stop being cowards. I know, a tall order. But your options and opportunities are running out; the more obvious and likely ones have been all missed or wasted. We’re all clinging to hopes and dreams that become increasingly improbable with every day and every Trump transgression of tradition, norm and law. Once you’ve run out of horses, it’s perfectly natural to keep praying for unicorns. But there comes a time when you have to stop wishing and start walking. The road isn’t going to get any shorter.

These are not normal times. This is not a normal president. Republicans have made a choice, and it’s the wrong one. Trump has taken over their country. The longer they go along with him, the harder it will be for anyone to take it back. How long before it’s too late is anybody’s guess. The current batch of Republicans still thinks they’re on a pleasure cruise. They need to take a closer look the tour itinerary. Do they really want to go where it’s heading? Is this what they signed up for?* Is this what they swore to protect? They’ll think that everything is great so long as it’s their opponents who are being thrown to the sharks. They are not pampered guests and passengers, they are rubber-stamping dupes and hostages. In reality, if they get in the Captain’s way, they’re next up to be chum. They need to wake up and smell the fascism. Time to put down the cocktails and step away from the buffet. Before long you’re going to try to hide that photo of which you’re so proud, you sitting there, smiling at the Captain’s table.

It’s going to be hard, but they’re going to have to think again. They have to imagine that they’re storming the beach of a hostile, occupying power, because that’s what Trump is. Liberation won’t happen if the troops are all milling about on board the landing craft, too afraid to be the first to step and wade ashore because they might be primaried. It’s criminal that the service and sacrifice of millions of Americans who fought against tyranny is being defiled by odious cowards trying to save their pensions or book deals, all in the service of a vile monster like Trump.

*Yes, I know that for far too many of them, this is exactly what they signed up for. Trump’s malignancy was not news.



The king’s jester

Feb 20th, 2025 2:37 pm | By

A joke but not a joke.

Donald Trump has called himself a king.

In a post to Truth Social on Wednesday, Feb. 19, the president, 78, praised his own efforts in attempting to revoke revoking New York City’s recently reinstated congestion pricing system.

“CONGESTION PRICING IS DEAD. Manhattan and all of New York, is SAVED,” he wrote, adding, “LONG LIVE THE KING.”

Hur hur, so funny, he’s such a card, hur hur.

Weird that other presidents haven’t made that joke though. Maybe they thought it would be inappropriate, unfunny, narcissistic, trashy?

Also of course you don’t save Manhattan by promoting more and more and more traffic. Manhattan isn’t built for a lot of traffic. It’s a skinny island: there isn’t room for a lot of traffic, so the more of it you have the more gridlocked it gets.

Shortly afterwards, the official White House Instagram account shared a fake Time magazine cover, depicting Trump wearing a crown. In place of the magazine’s title was Trump’s name in big letters — and again, at the left corner, read the words, “Long live the king.”

He’s not the king, he’s the hitler.

Congress is supine

Feb 20th, 2025 10:59 am | By

More terrifying (and terrorizing) every day.

Robert Reich:

Musk and his associates have not only burrowed into the Treasury’s payments system; they are now burrowing into the Internal Revenue Service and the Social Security Administration.

They are gaining access to the most sensitive personal information about Americans available anywhere, along with computer code capable of altering that information and those systems. The Muskrats have been able to turn off government funding without Congress’s consent, even in the face of federal court orders to turn the funding back on.

This is blatantly illegal, yet Congress remains silent.

Congress is supine because Republicans are in charge, and Musk has also become Trump’s hatchet man — threatening Republican members of Congress if they deviate from Trump.

Iowa’s Republican Senator Joni Ernst was firmly set against Pete Hegseth for secretary of defense until Musk hinted that he’d finance a primary challenger to Ernst, who’s up for reelection next year. Presto: Ernst supported Hegseth.

Indiana’s Republican Senator Todd Young expressed concern about the nomination of Tulsi Gabbard to be director of national intelligence until Musk tweeted against him. A besieged Young spoke with JD Vance, who arranged a call with Musk. Presto: Young announced he would back Gabbard.

Musk warned Republican lawmakers in December that he was compiling a “naughty list” of members who buck Trump’s agenda. He also pledged shortly after Election Day that his political action committee would “play a significant role in primaries” next year.

A Republican senator told The Hill that Musk’s wealth makes primary threats “a bigger deal.”

Musk’s financial and political power have been enough to intimidate even the mainstream media. An advertisement set to run in The Washington Post yesterday calling for Musk to be fired from his role in government was abruptly canceled, according to Common Cause, one of the groups that had ordered the ad. When asked why the Post had pulled the ad, the Post said it was not at liberty to give a reason.

When and if America ever wrests back control of our government, we must remember this: The combination of great wealth and great power — epitomized by Elon Musk — is destroying American democracy.

Oligarchy is the enemy of democracy.

And the enemy is well dug in.



Alas all that missing Marmite

Feb 20th, 2025 9:19 am | By

A news flash from Jonathan Gallant:

President Trump has issued an executive order, cancelling the name of the FDR Drive along the east side of Manhattan in New York City.   Asserting that FDR deserves no special recognition for leading the USA through World War II, President Trump asserted that there wouldn’t have been a world war at all if he had been president.  “The Poles just brought it all on themselves when they provoked Germany by signing a military alliance with Britain,” he said.  “Poland could have made a deal with Herr Hitler, by turning over Danzig and the Polish Corridor to him, and then there wouldn’t have been any war.” 

  President Trump added that FDR’s administration had prolonged the war by sending Lend-Lease military aid to Britain after hostilities broke out.  He added that it was stupid to provide all that support without its being secured by the promise of US property rights to key British resources, such as Cornish tin, Welsh slate, and Marmite.

An important distinction

Feb 20th, 2025 8:31 am | By

Liberal party will allow women to tell the truth.

The Liberal Democrats have been forced to allow women’s rights campaigners who believe in biological sex to have equal footing with other groups after claims that they had been “vilified and censured” for their beliefs.

Except they’re not beliefs, they’re facts.

Facts are beliefs in the banal sense that people may believe them, but it’s misleading at best and dishonest plus manipulative at worst to call facts “beliefs.” It’s not a mere belief that jumping off a tall building will cause death. It’s not a mere belief that fire burns, that rain is wet, that Antarctica is chilly. Women’s rights campaigners don’t “believe in biological sex”; we know that biological sense is real and that trans identity is a nebulous hodgepodge of stupid ideas.

Sir Ed Davey’s party have agreed to “draw a line under this period of intolerance” and allow Liberal Voice for Women (LVW) — the gender critical section of the party — to be allowed to hold events, have exhibition stands and place adverts after a previous ban.

A previous ban on women who know that men are not women, and refuse to say that men are women. In a party that calls itself liberal. You couldn’t make it up.

Zoe Hollowood, the chair of the Liberal Voice for Women, said: “For too long gender critical members have been vilified and censured in the party for their ordinary belief in the immutability and importances of sex.”

Or rather their ordinary recognition of the immutability and importance of sex. If we approach the edge of a cliff we don’t believe it would be dangerous to keep going, we know it would.

The agreement was confirmed in a letter to LVW from Mike Dixon, the party’s chief executive, who wrote: “The Liberal Democrats recognise that Liberal Voice for Women is entitled not to be discriminated against in respect of the lawfully held protected beliefs”.

Except they’re not beliefs, they’re just ordinary humdrum reality. Pretending that men can be women relies on a belief; not doing so is just recognition of reality.

The wording matters, obviously. Trans ideology is all about lies and fiction and fantasies while rejection of trans ideology is just a matter of everyday facts that we all know, even if some of us pretend we don’t know.

A Liberal Democrat spokesman said: “We are proud to be a liberal party where our members have a range of views on all sorts of issues, but come together to discuss them in a friendly and constructive way. That’s what Lib Dem conference is all about.

Well, I gotta say, the Liberal Party shouldn’t be proud to have a range of views on whether or not men are women.



Wait who’s the dictator?

Feb 20th, 2025 5:03 am | By

Side with the aggressor much?

President Trump escalated his attacks against Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Wednesday by calling him “a dictator without elections.”

Why it matters: The smear marks a new low in the deteriorating U.S.-Ukraine relationship. It comes as the Trump administration is negotiating a deal with the Kremlin to end Russia’s war in Ukraine without Kyiv’s participation in the talks.

Remember when FDR negotiated a deal with Hitler to end Germany’s war in Europe without Europe’s participation in the talks?

 “A Dictator without Elections, Zelenskyy better move fast or he is not going to have a Country left,” Trump wrote in a Truth Social post. “I love Ukraine, but Zelenskyy has done a terrible job, his Country is shattered.”

Trump has never called Russian President Vladimir Putin a dictator.

Never has and never will.



Then what do you mean?

Feb 20th, 2025 4:34 am | By

So…we mustn’t oppress trans people by having criteria for what “trans” is and how anyone knows who is trans and who isn’t, but at the same time we also must agree that trans people are indeed trans (because they say they are). So…what does “trans” mean then? What is it? Why is there so much noisy pressure to give trans people whatever they ask for at any moment? What are we even talking about?



Guest post: You’re not going to get all, like, kingly and shit on us, right?

Feb 19th, 2025 4:17 pm | By

Originally a comment by Nullius in Verba on Accountable to the pumpkin.

Unfortunately, we’ve been sliding toward de facto dictatorship for a long, long time. Presidential administrations, regardless of party, have a history of expanding executive power and diminishing congressional authority as defined by the Constitution. (Or as Jon Stewart put it, “Again, for some reason, we have given presidents the power of a king. And then we say, oh, by the way, with that power, you’re not going to get all, like, kingly and shit on us, right?”)

  While this particular move directly asserts White House control over independent agencies, the broader pattern of presidents’ centralizing power at the expense of Congress has been ongoing for literal decades. This Trump order isn’t exactly an outlier, not even from what Democratic presidents have done.

– Both Democratic and Republican administrations have increasingly bypassed Congress in military actions (e.g., Libya intervention under Obama, Syria strikes under Biden), avoiding formal war declarations. The last time Congress actually did its Constitutionally defined job and formally declared war was over eighty years agoin 1942. That means every single war the US has been … not a war?

– The Obama administration increased White House oversight over regulatory agencies, particularly through executive orders such as Improving Regulation and Regulatory Review (EO 13563) and Regulatory Planning and Review (EO 12866, which Obama reaffirmed). These required independent agencies to justify their regulations under cost-benefit analysis frameworks set by the White House.

– The Biden administration used executive orders and agency directives to enforce major policy changes (e.g., student loan forgiveness, OSHA’s vaccine mandates) without clear congressional authorization. His regulatory review changes (EO 14094) further centralized regulatory power under the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA), similar to Trump’s move.

– Under Dodd-Frank (2010), the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) was set up to be largely independent of congressional budgetary control, with funds coming directly from the Federal Reserve. This effectively removed oversight from Congress, paralleling Trump’s attempt to consolidate oversight under the executive branch.

– Through the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, the Obama administration effectively redefined immigration enforcement priorities without congressional approval. This set a precedent for the executive branch to determine de facto immigration policy, bypassing legislative debate. It’s not like that came back to bite anyone in the ass, though.

– Presidents frequently declare national emergencies to bypass congressional gridlock. Obama declared an emergency over the Swine Flu, while Biden extended COVID-19 emergency powers long after the pandemic’s peak. This follows a trend where executive declarations serve as justification for unilateral policy changes.

Sometimes it feels like America just wants to live in a dictatorship. Well, at least a dictatorship run by the people on our side. That’s certainly the way we behave.

Trump missed every pitch

Feb 19th, 2025 10:35 am | By

Tom Nichols at The Atlantic:

I watched Sean Hannity’s Fox News interview tonight with President Donald Trump and Elon Musk.

But I am still not sure who’s in charge. If there is a headline from the interview, it is that the president of the United States feels that he requires the services of a multibillionaire to enforce his executive orders. Trump complained that he would write these “beautiful” executive orders, which would then languish in administrative limbo. Musk, for his part, explained that the president is the embodiment of the nation and that resisting his orders is the same as thwarting the will of the people. Hannity, of course, enthusiastically supported all of this whining about how hard it is to govern a superpower.

Of course the president is not “the embodiment of the nation.” That kind of thinking is used to justify royalty, but presidents are definitely not supposed to be royalty. Trump’s galactic vanity does not contradict that.

The interview was arduous both for the viewer and for Hannity, because everyone who interviews Trump must always contend with the president’s apparent inability to hold a single thought for very long. Hannity, as usual, tried to throw softballs; Trump, as usual, missed every pitch. Hannity at one point noted that Trump has “become a student of history” and then asked how the Framers of the Constitution would view his efforts to rein in the bureaucracy. Trump verbally wandered about before returning to his talking points about Musk, who he said is “amazing” and “cares.” So say James Madison and the other Founders, apparently.

Seriously? Did Hannity really think Trump could respond intelligently to that question? Surely not. Surely it’s obvious to everyone that Trump’s brain is melting away, and he can’t respond intelligently to anything. You’d think Fox people would be careful to throw him softballs.



Anybody got their addresses?

It turns out that actions based on moving fast and breaking things can be…well…destructive. Who knew?

The movers and breakers are trying to unfire some of the crucial people they fired so swiftly and breakingly, but they’re having trouble because they did so much breaking.

The US government is trying to rehire nuclear safety employees it had fired on Thursday, after concerns grew that their dismissal could jeopardise national security, US media reported.

The National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) workers were among hundreds of employees in the energy department who received termination letters.

The Trump administration has since tried to reverse their terminations, according to media outlets, but has reportedly struggled to reach the people that were fired after they were locked out of their federal email accounts.

A memo sent to NNSA employees on Friday and obtained by NBC News read: “The termination letters for some NNSA probationary employees are being rescinded, but we do not have a good way to get in touch with those personnel.”

“Please work with your supervisors to send this information (once you get it) to people’s personal contact emails,” the memo added.

Amateurish much?

That’s the problem, see. Breaking things is breaking things. If it occurs to you five minutes later that you need the things you just broke, well, maybe you shouldn’t have broken them.

Musk and Trump’s moronic method here is just to throw out all the people who are easy to fire because they don’t yet have protections. Their method is not to investigate what people do and try to figure out which jobs are least essential. Their method is what a child having a tantrum would do, but it’s not what anyone with an adult brain and a lick of sense would do. It’s fast, but then so is a missile launch; that doesn’t mean you want to launch missiles at the very people who are there to warn us of approaching missiles.

The sheer infantile stupidity of it is hard to believe.



Honey we didn’t mean it

Oops wait a second come back

Trump’s administration is attempting to rehire officials with the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) who worked on the government response to bird flu before being fired over the weekend, US media report.

The layoffs were a part of a cost-cutting mission across the US government by Trump and his Department of Government Efficiency (Doge) leader Elon Musk.

The terminations came as the latest outbreak of the bird flu has wreaked havoc on poultry and cattle farms, causing egg prices to skyrocket and raising concerns among public health experts.

A USDA spokesperson told the BBC that although “several” officials working on bird flu were “notified of their terminations” over the weekend, “we are working to swiftly rectify the situation and rescind those letters”.

So you’re saying maybe it’s not a good idea to fire whole agencies without pausing for one single second to look into what they do and why it’s needed? Wow, radical.

“USDA’s Food Safety and Inspection Service frontline positions are considered public safety positions, and we are continuing to hire the workforce necessary to ensure the safety and adequate supply of food to fulfil our statutory mission,” the spokesperson added.

Along with firing lots of them fast and at random.

Trump and Musk appeared on Fox News on Tuesday night to defend the mass cuts they are making across the government, with Musk claiming Doge is just trying to “restore the will of the people through the president”.

Ya unh huh that’s how it’s done, move fast and break things and call that “the will of the people.”



Accountable to the pumpkin

Feb 19th, 2025 9:00 am | By

The transfer to dictatorship proceeds apace.

Trump has signed an executive order making independent regulatory agencies established by Congress now accountable to the White House – a move that some experts said clashes with mainstream interpretations of the constitution.

The order forces major regulators such as the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) to report new policy priorities to the executive branch for approval, which will also have a say over their budgets.

Everybody and everything has to get Trump’s permission to do anything, and if he doesn’t give his permission, that’s the end of it.

In a fact sheet, the White House described the move as, “ensuring that all federal agencies are accountable to the American people, as required by the Constitution”.

Trump is not the American people.

The latest apparent power grab from the Trump administration would give the office of management and budget head, Russell Vought, oversight over a suite of major agencies – including regulators of Wall Street, campaign finance, telecommunications companies, labor and even the Postal Service.

The Trump order aligns with campaign promises to make independent agencies accountable to the president and a pledge Vought made in 2023: “What we’re trying to do is identify the pockets of independence and seize them.”

Aka make the US a dictatorship.

“The [order] directs that all independent agencies shall subordinate themselves to the office of management and budget (OMB) and Trump’s OMB hatchet man, Russ Vought,” said Robert Weissman, co-president of the consumer advocacy group Public Citizen.

“Under the [executive order], independent agencies’ rules would be approved by OMB and Vought, their funding would be determined by OMB and Vought, and they would be required to follow White House policy dictates,” said Weissman.

Weissman argued the move was an effort to shield major corporations from the scrutiny of such independent agencies. The SEC, for instance, often investigates major corporations on behalf of shareholders.

“Not incidentally, both the FTC and SEC have ongoing investigations or enforcement actions against companies owned by Elon Musk,” said Weissman.

Of course they do.



A circle of disinformation

Feb 19th, 2025 6:52 am | By

Zelensky points out that Trump tells a lot of lies.

“I would like to have more truth with the Trump team,” Mr. Zelensky told reporters in Kyiv during a broader discussion about the administration, which this week opened peace talks with Russia that excluded Ukraine. Mr. Zelensky said that the U.S. president was “living in a disinformation space” and in a “circle of disinformation.”

Which is a lightly veiled way of saying he lies non-stop.

Later Tuesday, Mr. Trump said of Ukraine’s leadership and the war, “You should have never started it”…

Note: he didn’t start it.

“Yesterday, there were signals of speaking with them as victims,” he said of the Trump officials’ tone in discussing the Russian officials, whose government sparked the largest war in Europe since World War II, which has killed or wounded about a million people on both sides over three years. “That is something new.”

It’s what they do. It’s what trans ideologues do and it’s what Trumpists do. Blatantly reverse victim and victimizer and ignore all corrections.



Spot the insult

Feb 18th, 2025 4:30 pm | By

Jo Bartosch at UnHerd:

The United Nations has been dragged into the global conflict between the defenders of biological reality and the demands of transgender activists. UN Special Rapporteur on Violence Against Women and Girls, Reem Alsalem, has dared to acknowledge the existence of two sexes in her reports — at once a fact so mundane and an act so rare — that over 200 NGOs have signed a letter denouncing her.

According to this outraged coalition, co-led by Planned Parenthood International (PPI) and Women Deliver (WD), Alsalem’s “sex-based” approach is nothing less than a “Western colonial patriarchal worldview” that “undermines decades of progress.” Apparently, recognising that men commit violence against women “further marginalizes vulnerable groups, including trans and gender-diverse persons, increasing the risk of violence and hatred.” Because nothing threatens safety quite like correctly identifying the sex of rapists, wife beaters or extremist religious leaders who stone rape victims. The furious missive is the latest attack on Alsalem, an expert who has faced calls for her dismissal from her UN role for over two years, alongside constant accusations that she is transphobic.

“Colonial” ffs – as if colonized people think men are women. That’s colonial if you like.

Bizarrely, to the NGO set who enjoy expense-account lunches in Geneva while churning out unreadable reports, Alsalem’s insistence on biological sex is supposedly rooted in white supremacy. As the letter states: “The category of ‘woman’ has always been racialized, with white women expected to enforce binary gender norms violently upon anyone deemed non-conforming.” 

They’ve been reading Judith Butler, haven’t they.

Alsalem’s work, which exposes the brutal reality of male violence — child marriage, sex trafficking, femicide — triggers the #BeKind conformists because it refuses to kowtow to their luxury beliefs. Anyone with a functioning moral compass should be horrified by these crimes, not by the language used to describe them. Yet WD and PPI seem more exercised by words like “biological sex” than by the actual atrocities committed against women and girls worldwide.

It’s all in the language, you see. There is no reality, there is only chat.



This morally rudderless mountebank

Feb 18th, 2025 11:53 am | By

Michael Tomasky puts it starkly:

I’d be hard-pressed to argue that JD Vance’s meeting with the leader of the German fascist party on Friday was weakly covered by the press. Yet somehow, it hasn’t registered quite the degree of shock and revulsion here in the United States that it deserves to. That visit, along with Vance’s shocking speech at the Munich Security Conference, confirms every worst suspicion about this morally rudderless mountebank. The argot of diplomats and newspaper editorials, which express “concern” or even “grave concern,” doesn’t begin to describe how we Americans should feel about what Vance did last week in our name.

The Alternative fur Deutschland (AfD) has been declared a “suspected extremist” organization by the German domestic intelligence agency. It has been shunned by all other parties; with a Bundestag election coming up February 23, the leading candidate, Christian Democrat Friedrich Merz, has vowed that he won’t form a government with the fascists. AfD’s leaders have constantly downplayed the country’s Nazi past. And the vice president of the United States just met with its leader. While shunning a meeting with the sitting chancellor.

Vance and Musk, and by extension their boss, President Donald Trump, like what AfD stands for, and they want the world to know they like it.

They want to rub our noses in it.
