So, the HHS fabricated a study that paints everyone that even acknowledged the concept of trans people existing as violent extremists.

Does anyone have a better secondary source, that might put this into context? I’ve only found the OP (who is okay, I guess) and then dozens of right-wing tabloids taking this at face-value. This is the most dystopian shit I’ve read lately, so why isn’t this bigger?
