In 1933 the Nazi Party looted and destroyed the Institut für Sexualwissenschaft (Institute for Sex Research) in Berlin, the first clinic for modern gender-affirmation surgeries in the world. The Institute's library and archives were publicly burned.

If you have ever seen news footage of Nazi book burnings, odds are it was the library from the Institut für Sexualwissenschaft being burned. As that one was extensively documented by cameras and reporters, both German and from other major nations.

Donald, you can't eliminate the DoE "returning things to the states" and then mandate this crap. Executive Orders are for the executive branch. The DoE is not the executive branch, especially at the state level. States and districts in a federated system can do whatever they want.
