that the reasons that this is bad is not just because it's unfair to women and girls or children who could make irrevocable changes. It's that the backlash to these kinds of excessive, out-of-touch policies will, in the end, redound terribly to transgender adults. Do you feel like this executive order was sort of that warning coming to fruition?

That is one major social issue that people are talking about in the days since Trump took office. Another one, of course, is DEI. Trump terminated what he called radical and wasteful DEI programs across the federal government. And it has very literal and immediate consequences. All federal DEI employees are going to be placed on paid leave starting today, I believe.

We're recording this on Wednesday as the agencies prepare to close out all DEI related offices. We're sort of seeing a return to things that seemed maybe standard American 20 years ago, merit-based hiring, colorblind hiring. Peter, what do you think of what Trump is doing on this issue?

Let's talk about immigration. So there were a number of orders on immigration. Trump reinstated the Remain in Mexico policy, ending a program that released asylum seekers into the U.S. while their cases are under evaluation. There were a number of other things. But the most controversial one is that Trump moved to revoke birthright citizenship, something that is guaranteed in the 14th Amendment.

Anyone want to bet that he can pull this one off? 22 states, by the way, are already suing. And my sense, at least from we had a great little Q&A with Yale law professor Jed Rubenfeld, who likes a lot of what Trump did in these day one executive orders, but basically feels like this is going to be struck down by the court. What do you guys think about this?

Assuming he's right and it is going to be shut down, which is what many legal scholars are saying, why did he go for this? What's the point of it? If he likes winning, why choose a losing battle?

Okay, here's a question. Is changing the name of Denali to Mount McKinley and the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America, is that just like a weird Trumpism or is that something that has actual purchase, Batya, among the American people? Like, forgive me. I was focused on other issues. I don't know if that was a campaign promise of Trump's, but why?

So, no, it's not the most important issue, but it's kind of fun. I just think Denali is so much more beautiful than McKinley. Peter, Brianna, do you guys care about Denali McKinley now?
