Washington DC:
After a federal judge ordered the repair of web pages that were removed under the executive command of President Donald Trump on gender ideology, the US senator from Utah, Mike Lee criticized the decision and called it an “unprecedented attack on legitimate presidential authority” and labeling “Absurd” for judges to dictate which web pages of the government should exist.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk also responded to the senator's post and called the development 'really absurd'.
“These judges make an unprecedented attack on legitimate presidential authority, all the way to dictating which web pages the government has. This is absurd,” read Lee's Post.

In response to Lee's Post, Musk wrote: “Really absurd. Judges as website -editors !? We must at least try to dismiss this junky lawyer. The idea of having a right job for life, no matter how bad the judgments are is ridiculous!

This is after the American district judge John Bates has agreed to grant a temporarily limiting order that the group asked, doctors for America, who argued that its members used the websites in the treatment of patients and conducted research. The non -profit organization said that the removal of the web pages by the Ministry of Health and Human Services and its components violated the Federal Law, CBS News reported.
Bates has established that the challengers would probably overcome in their argument that the Ministry of Health and Human Services, CDC and FDA violate the Act by removing medical information from public websites.
On his first day at the office, President Trump signed an executive order in which it was stated that the United States recognizes only two genera, male and female, and federal agencies instructing it to remove materials that promote or support gender ideology.
Days after the president had issued his order, the Office of Personnel Management issued a memorandum that ordered all agencies on January 31 at 5 pm to remove all websites, social media accounts and other public media “that promote or promote gender ideology.”
In response to the memo, the CDC and the FDA took out countless web pages and data sets, including recommendations on how doctors should treat sexually transmitted diseases and adult immunization guidance, CBC News reported.
