I want to examine one thing in the big, beautiful bill, one specific thing that stands out to me in the big, beautiful bill this morning that I mentioned in small part yesterday, but I want to dwell on just a little bit more today. And that is that Trump's big, beautiful bill defunds transgender surgeries All the way across the country, no more federal spending on this.
No more federal spending on this at all. This is a big piece. Breitbart has an excellent piece up on this today. Take a look here. Trump's big beautiful bill defunds Medicaid covered transgender surgery. Now, even before we dive into any more of the details, do you understand what it means? If something is Medicaid covered, it means it's for poor people. It's for poor people in the United States.

Chapter 2: How does the Big Beautiful Bill affect transgender surgeries?
being issued and crime skyrocketed in that city.
And so I got rid of six more factual findings that the DOJ had done under the Biden administration, basically accusing cops and police departments or sheriff's departments throughout the United States of misconduct based on minor statistical anomalies or differentials between arrest rates or police encounters, as you will, with homeless people trying to import
ADA, Americans with Disabilities Act, discrimination requirements onto 911 response times and teams and just nonsensical pie in the sky idealism that bears no relation to reality or the quality of life issues facing America's communities. And so what we are promising is that we are not going to be engaging in that type of remote control, second guessing of the police. We will continue to prosecute
officers who lie to get inappropriate search warrants or who commit acts of violence against citizens that are unjustified and otherwise are inappropriate. But I want people out there to know that the DOJ is also their partner, and Civil Rights Division helps
police departments throughout the United States with a program called COPS, Community Oriented Policing Services, that helps do audits of police practices at the request of police departments and helps with targeted training of best practices when police departments want that. And I think it's great where people want to improve and modernize, use new technology.
And so we're examining those and helping with those where appropriate. But what we're not going to be in the business of is micromanaging from D.C. with some idealistic lawyers what the police are doing every day in communities to keep America safe and risking their lives to do it. We appreciate that. We want to be their partners.
And that micromanaging wasn't helping anybody. It was actually making America more dangerous. The Department of Justice led to more crime, which is so completely appalling. Harmeet Dhillon, you're running in a very important division of the Department of Justice. Thank you very much for your time today. Good to talk to you. Thank you.
There's a Harvey Dillon running the civil rights division there at the Department of Justice. Isn't that amazing? So they set up these consent decrees with these police departments across the country. Everyone gets, all the lawyers get paid. They make millions of dollars. Everybody's taking a ton of money out of this.
And the crime situation gets worse because the Justice Department got involved and made everything hell. That's over now under Harmeet Dhillon and President Trump. What a massive, massive change here. Harmeet Dhillon doing some good stuff. And when you talk about civil rights law, she's got a lot of stuff. It's not just race, it's religion, it's gender. So she's going after all these issues.
