Policy analysts at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta were told of the list of forbidden words at a meeting Thursday with senior CDC officials who oversee the budget, according to an analyst who took part in the 90-minute briefing. The forbidden words are "vulnerable," "entitlement," "diversity," "transgender," "fetus," "evidence-based" and "science-based."

    This could be Trump's most difficult campaign promise to keep.

    I think you are right. It looks like the only campaign promise he is going to keep this year is the one to give billionaires and bigcorps a yuge tax break.

    But what can you do, even his own wife [twitter.com] and children [twitter.com] are generals in the War on Christmas. Traitors all around him!
