The Left is trying to fight President Donald Trump on every single policy item in his agenda.
But they are quickly learning that they have little support in this upcoming battle.
And Donald Trump is preparing for a Supreme Court showdown after a Democrat governor made this one unthinkable dare.
Donald Trump takes men out of women’s sports
Donald Trump just signed an executive order that is widely popular across America.
The order, titled “Keeping Men Out of Women’s Sports,” vowed to defund schools that allowed biological males to compete against women.
The order states, “The policy of the United States to rescind all funds from educational programs that deprive women and girls of fair athletic opportunities, which results in the endangerment, humiliation, and silencing of women and girls and deprives them of privacy.”
“It shall also be the policy of the United States to oppose male competitive participation in women’s sports more broadly, as a matter of safety, fairness, dignity, and truth,” concluded the signed executive order.
A recent New York Times/Ipsos poll discovered that 79% of Americans back the idea that biological men should not be allowed to compete in women’s sports programs.
But that isn’t stopping Democrats from trying to die on this hill, as they are determined to fight against this widely popular belief.
During a Senate vote on legislation to codify the executive order into federal law, every single Democrat voted to filibuster the proposal.
But the one Democrat who has fought to become the face of men competing in women’s sports was Maine’s Governor Janet Mills.
The White House recently hosted a luncheon with governors from every state, and President Trump took the opportunity to directly call out Mills over the state of Maine allowing a biological male to compete in a pole-vaulting event for high school girls.
As expected, the male easily defeated every female athlete in the competition.
During the luncheon, President Trump warned Governor Mills that if she continued to allow these types of atrocities to continue, the state of Maine would lose federal funding for its schools.
“You better do it because you’re not going to get federal funding,” Trump warned Mills, explaining that she had to comply with federal law.
But Mills refused to listen, responding with a challenge of her own.
“We’re going to follow the law, sir,” Mills fired back. “We’ll see you in court!”
President Trump laughed at her attempt to appear tough and accepted her challenge with a smile.
“Enjoy your life as governor, because I don’t think you’ll be an elected official afterwards,” slammed Trump.
Following the event, the Trump administration wasted no time to follow through with their promise.
The chief financial officer at the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) sent an email to the head of the University of Maine System (USM) explaining that, pending an investigation, their federal funding had been cut off.
The USDA officer declared that “awarding agencies and staff offices to temporarily no longer issue any payments or authorize any other releases of funding to Columbia University or the University of Maine System.”
While the federal funding cuts are just temporary, the pause will be devastating as the University of Maine has been allocated $30 million in funding from the USDA in 2024.
“This pause is temporary in nature while USDA evaluates if it should take any follow-on actions related to prospective Title VI or Title IX violations,” continued the email.
“Please take any necessary actions to effectuate this direction from leadership,” added the USDA official. “This pause will remain in effect until further notice.”
Democrats want to fight President Trump on every issue imaginable.
But their decision to go to battle with Trump on forcing women to compete against men in sports is certainly not going to work out how they think.
