Levine should resign and the Biden-Harris administration should issue an immediate reversal of their policies promoting “gender affirming care” for minors. Xavier Baccera, the head of HHS, should resign along with Merrick Garland, who as head of the DOJ has gone after state that have attempted to ban this medical malpractice. This is the greatest medical scandal of this century and Biden and Harris have done nothing less than cheerlead for its expansion.

Wow, that was a tough one to read, but I'm in 1,000 agreement. Not only should Levine re-sign, but let's hope that, in your words, Jon, there is a "legal reckoning coming for those who perpetuated it." These people didn't just perpetuate what they call "gender affirming care," but they blatantly hid evidence that went against their worldview just for the sake of protecting that worldview. One can't get much more evil than that.

Wow, just wow. What do folks who promote pre-puberty transitions gain from depriving their targets of orgasmic capacity?

Kudos to Andrew Sullivan for finally opening his eyes on this issue - he's built a career as one of the few influential gays willing to challenge queer sacred cows. The rest are cowards or complicit in the evil of trans ideology. And thanks to Jon for spreading the word on the despicable Biden-Harris administration and their delight in destroying the futures of thousands of confused American kids. Their parents and medical providers should be prosecuted and imprisoned.

The Right's Gender Scam: How They're Conning America with Fake Outrage

A grotesque theater of bathroom panic and pronoun hysteria, designed to keep you scared, distracted, and obedient—while they ignore the real problems.

What about the 15,000 children who have had their reproductive organs removed?

Is that a scam too?

We clearly see things differently, and that’s okay. I strive to follow Christ’s teachings of love, compassion, and respect for everyone. I also believe in the American principle of freedom — the idea that all people should have the right to live authentically and without judgment. You may not agree, but that’s the path I choose to walk.

p.s. There are sources of information other than Trump rallies and News Max.

Keep striving to follow Christ's teachings—all of them, not just his commandment to, above all things, love God and our fellow man with all of our heart. (Matthew 18:6 comes to mind.)

Your line at the end is condescending and baiting, and shows you know very little about me. That's ok.

Go in peace and love, and continue to the search for the light and truth. I will do the same.

What POSSIBLE reason would medical professionals “hide science” if any kind? it’s not like these doctors get green stamps for every child they “turned”. It takes a long time for people to even believe in their own mind that they need to make this drastic change let alone tell family members and seeing doctor. This is not a whim. It’s not a fad. It is what these people need to survive. Next you’ll tell me people can decide not to be gay…🙄Doctors help people. There is no hidden agenda. It’s doctors trying to do the best they can with the current knowledge they have to help patients.

(is it true that maybe in the future it will be discovered that some practices were less than helpful? Yes. Because that is the nature of science. We learn more and do better…Let me guess; you believe the Covid vaccine is some evil government plot.)

You religious people are nuts.

You people are so delusional. First of all, what business is it of yours about what trans people do?

Not every trans person has their genitalia altered, so their “sexual pleasure” is not affected at all. That’s a decision they make. Children are given puberty blockers to delay the process to give more time to fully vet this decision. NOBODY is cutting off the genitalia of children. Period. End of subject.

No one makes the decision to transition lightly. It’s not like choosing chicken or fish. To expose yourself to the prejudice and ignorance of others is scary. Most trans people have considered suicide because not being in the right body and getting to live the way they need to is devastating. Transitioning is not done on a whim. They do it because they’d rather be dead than to be trapped in a body that doesn’t match who they are.

Shame on all of you .

Removing the reproductive organs of kids because they're confused over gender is an atrocity. Hiding science that sheds light on the problems and lack of scientific rigor behind "gender medicines" for political reason is evil.

If you think these things are fine, you're the delusional one.

I’m not sure you read the article objectively. And I think everyone agrees with you that the process needs to be delayed and allow more time to a person to making lifelong decisions. Don’t get so upset about those doctors who are also questioning whether all of this is moving too fast and reckless.

1) This guy is a FAILED med student so he is misrepresenting himself as some sort of authority on the subjects he writes about. 2)The writer gets his information from another article that quotes Do No Harm ad nauseum. Do No Harm is a special group of nut bags that specify IN THEIR MISSION STATEMENT that they are an association “combatting the attack on our healthcare system from woke activists” so yeah…I trust their objectivity🙄 4)As a person who has 3 trans family members, I know the hurdles they face to just live an ordinary and happy life. The transition care they receive is LIFE SAVING, because now they are happy. How many trans people do either of you know personally? Yeah…that’s what I thought.
