City Journal Morning Brief: Oregon Transgender Data, Civil Terrorism, Energy Transition, and Permitting Law
This City Journal morning brief covers multiple topics. A new study reveals that between 2016 and 2023, one in 240 teen girls in Oregon were on testosterone by age 17, significantly higher than the national average of one in 1,000. The data suggests a link between social identity and medical diagnosis, weakening claims of a biological basis for gender identity. The brief also discusses civil terrorism as a threat to democracy, citing Representative Adam Smith's experience with anti-Israel vandalism. It argues that the global energy transition is a myth, as oil use per capita remains stable and AI drives demand. Finally, it calls for reforming the National Environmental Policy Act to speed up permitting for infrastructure projects.
