Trump Administration Investigates Alleged Use of 'Transgender Dolls' in Minnesota Schools

The U.S. Department of Education has launched an investigation into the alleged use of 'transgender dolls' in Minnesota schools. The dolls, known as MyGender Dolls, are reportedly designed to help children understand gender diversity. However, there is no evidence that public funds were used for their creation or that they will be used in public schools. The dolls' creators state they are intended for use by licensed clinicians and psychologists, not in educational settings. The investigation follows claims by right-wing media, despite a lack of substantiated evidence.
