Rules:

1. Be civil


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.


2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.


Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.

4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.


Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.

Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.


7. No duplicate posts.


If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.


8. Misinformation is prohibited.


Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.


9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.


All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link.

Summary

A federal judge ordered HHS, CDC, and FDA to restore deleted health webpages removed under Trump’s executive order on gender ideology.

The ruling favors Doctors for America, which argued that erasing medical data violated federal law and harmed patient care.

The deletions impacted STI treatment guidance, youth health data, and immunization resources.

Judge John Bates found the agencies acted unlawfully, endangering the public health. His ruling requires restoration by Tuesday night, marking another legal setback for Trump’s executive actions.

Good; it's not much, but every wall put in their way helps.

[–] FenrirIII@lemmy.world 20 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Until they ignore the rulings and there's no one to enforce them. The Trump admon believes that they are above the law.

1 say make them show their true colors now while the transition is still happening. If they’re flagrantly breaking 1aws, make them do it f1agrantly. It forces their hand, publishes the behavior for all to see, and may cause them to accelerate plans before they’ve fully solidified mi1itary and bureaucratic pwer.

[–] theangryseal@lemmy.world 17 points 1 year ago

Keyboard broken?

No that’s not it?

Trying in vain to make LLMs dumber?

What’s going on here?

[–] Atelopus-zeteki@fedia.io 39 points 1 year ago

Great, we've all be harmed by drumpi, it's his fault. We should sue.

[–] bradv@lemmy.ca 36 points 1 year ago (3 children)

And who will enforce this ruling?

[–] ThePantser@lemmy.world 16 points 1 year ago

The highest court in the...... nevermind.

[–] blanketswithsmallpox@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Anyone who knows how to leverage the threat of isolation, violence and murder. Aka, the people, the backbone of every civilization.

The people who are either reveling in the changes, the ones who don't care because it doesn't effect them, or the ones living paycheck to paycheck that can't afford to get a criminal record for protesting and lose their job?

A critical mass of people won't do anything until it becomes an imminent matter of their own life and death, and this ain't it.

[–] BossDj@lemm.ee 16 points 1 year ago (1 children)

A set back. If he complies. And temporary once the other courts get involved

[–] phdepressed@sh.itjust.works 26 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I mean it's basically using the R strategy, sue and delay, delay, delay until someone else is in power.

[–] Empricorn@feddit.nl 17 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Delay, Deny... I feel like there was another step that someone used successfully?

[–] normalexit@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Hopefully it wasn't deleted, deleted. Normally I feel like there would be backups, but I could see our fearless leader ordering it ALL to be permanently wiped such that recovery would be impossible.

[–] mosiacmango@lemm.ee 14 points 1 year ago (2 children)

The internet archive likely has it.

[–] NuXCOM_90Percent@lemmy.zip 14 points 1 year ago

The Internet Archive is basically under constant attack from, among other things, the US government.

And even under a good administration: Getting permission to restore to something that a random website claims is what was there is gonna be a LOT of paperwork and a LOT of lifelong bureaucrats signing off on it.

[–] OminousOrange@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago

There were a number of self-hosting, data hoarder type folk that were actively archiving government URLs once Donny was elected.

[–] bg10k@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I personally have full backups of some of it so I'm 1000% the data exists in its entirety out there

[–] atzanteol@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It would be pretty difficult for the CDC to vouch for data from your personal backup though.

[–] bg10k@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 year ago

Ceed (We're close friends so that's what I call the CDC) would have no problem. He knows I'm good for it.

[–] Punchshark@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago

Ha! Like rump gives a shit what the courts say anymore.

[–] funkless_eck@sh.itjust.works -1 points 1 year ago

Crazy how the HHS lives in the final fantasy 8 universe, judging by the font on the sign. Does it also get up and fly around to unleash child soldiers?
