Gaines and Thomas tied for fifth place, but the trophy was given only to Thomas at the award ceremony. Gaines has since dedicated herself to advocating for female sports and athletes, and she even testified before Congress. Here's some audio of that.

Yeah, Trump really hit the ground running here. On day one, he signed an executive order stipulating that it's the official policy of the United States government that there are only two genders. Additionally, Trump signed an order banning taxpayer-funded gender transitions for minors, which has already stopped some hospitals from performing those often irreversible procedures.

Yeah, that appears to be the plan. The House passed the Protection of Women and Girls Act last month, but the Senate, which is also narrowly controlled by the GOP, has yet to vote on the bill. Here's Republican Senator Tommy Tuberville on The Megyn Kelly Show urging Republicans to get that bill passed or at least get lawmakers on the record.

Meta Platforms has agreed to pay Trump $25 million for suspending his Facebook account following the January 6th riot back in 2021. Most of the settlement, $22 million worth, will go toward Trump's presidential library, while the rest of the money will cover legal fees and other plaintiffs.

The deal comes after Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg met with Trump at Mar-a-Lago in November, seeking to repair ties with the incoming president. The lawsuit was one of several Trump filed against social media companies with mixed success. Senator Elizabeth Warren criticized the settlement, calling it a bribe.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. for Health and Human Services Secretary, Tulsi Gabbard for Director of National Intelligence, and Kash Patel to run the FBI were all grilled by lawmakers today.

At the same time, in a different room, Kash Patel sat down for his hearing to lead the FBI. In one particularly tense exchange, Senator Amy Klobuchar implied that he previously claimed police lied about aspects of the January 6, 2021 riot. Here's that.

Meanwhile, Tulsi Gabbard was pushed on several topics, including her previous statements on Edward Snowden and a previous visit she took to Syria where she met with Bashar al-Assad. Here she is answering a question from Arizona Senator Mark Kelly about her meeting with the Syrian leader. I shed no tears for the fall of the Assad regime.

Right. So building off of past declarations on gender, Trump signed an EO that directs the DOD to ban men from using or sharing sleeping, changing, and bathing facilities that are designated for females. And it also rescinds a Biden order that allowed other gender identity related accommodations, arguing that it hinders military readiness and other standards.

Now, additionally, this EO stops taxpayer dollars from funding gender transitions, including surgeries for military members. This was actually happening under President Biden to the tune of millions of dollars. The Trump administration said that this applies to trans-identifying children of service members as well.
