Where did this bogus "transgenic" narrative come from? And BTW he didn't say "research on transgender mice", he said "making mice transgender"... which is technically incorrect but obvious to me (and, I thought, anyone knowledgeable in the field) that the research involved giving mice hormone therapy.

Saying "technically incorrect" is downplaying what is really totally incorrect from any reasonable interpretation. There is nothing in that fact check that it's close to what was said. Let's just call it wrong and not try to excuse it

The ability to turn a study on "the effects of testosterone hormone therapy on breast cancer" into "transgender", into "why are they twisting his words! everyone knows he didn't mean transgender" requires some serious excuse making mental gymnastics. Why are you still trying to convince yourself rather than just recognize maga has gone completely off the rails?
