When Joe Biden nominated her to be assistant secretary for health, Dr. Rachel Levine became the first transgender person to win Senate confirmation. She led the Public Health Corps, which comes with the title of admiral.
Now the Trump administration has rewritten history and busted her down to the poop deck.
On the seventh floor of HHS headquarters, the line of photographic portraits of all the past leaders of the Public Health Corps still includes Levine—but not her legal name. Instead HHS went to the trouble, during the shutdown, of deadnaming her.
Donald Trump's people know how to be petty. They've learned from the best.
