OPINION:
The government-run health care system in England sent word around the medical community that “puberty-suppressing hormones should not be routinely commissioned for children and adolescents who have gender incongruence or dysphoria,” CBN reported. Why? ‘Cause docs there deem them unsafe, that’s why.
And all of America’s medical bureaucrats and Democrats go: eh.
This White House has made clear its priority is exploiting children. Of course, they don’t call it that. They use different words.
“Biden calls restrictions on treatment for trans kids ‘immoral,’” The New York Post reported in October, 2022, about President Joe Biden’s condemnation of states that have tried to do as England is now doing, and slow the roll on sex-change treatments for those of ages that are too young to understand what sex-change treatment truly means.
“Biden versus GOP-led states on trans surgeries and puberty blockers,” The Washington Examiner reported in the same 2022 time frame.
It’s a showdown, alright.
It’s Democrats and their doctors of doom versus the children.
The odds are certainly stacked against the little kids.
When it comes to transgender rights, transgender surgeries, transgender wills and whims and preferred pronouns and hormone pills galore — when it comes to the shedding of all sense and sanity; all that’s godly; all that’s normal — this White House unleashes its forces faster than you can say “Afghanistan withdrawal,” harder than you can say “China strong.” Let no man stand between Biden and his puberty blockers.
This is the administration, after all, that happily hung a rainbow flag front and center on the people’s house, wedged in between two American flags, while topless trannies pranced on the South Lawn at the presidentially hosted LGBTQ+ Pride party. Sure, press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre called out the sex show as “unacceptable.” But she probably more meant that it was “unacceptable” only three went topless, and not three dozen. This is the White House with the Justice Department, after all, that has issued clear warnings to states — to Republicans — about the legal perils of keeping little kids from accessing their “gender-affirming care,” that is to say, from hiring doctors who will help them decimate their bodies while enabling and advancing their mental instabilities. It’s how Democrats show their love; exploiting children is ultimately for the good of the state.
America, under Democrat control, will never cease and desist its quest to turn little boys into little girls, or little whatevers — even as other countries are awakening to the evils of this form of child medical experimentation.
“We are now going out to targeted stakeholder testing on an interim clinical commissioning policy proposing that, outside of a research setting, puberty-suppressing hormones should not be routinely commissioned for children and adolescents who have gender incongruence/dysphoria,” England’s updated medical guidance reads.
Norway, Finland, Sweden — they’ve all issued similar policies to their own medical communities. Meanwhile, a major insurance company in Australia is now saying no to coverage of gender-altering medical procedures. Want to whack a body part? That’ll be an out-of-pocket expense then.
America, the nation that used to lead the world in the world of health care, is sticking on the fringe of evil, though.
“Biden says efforts to restrict transgender rights ‘close to sinful,’” CNN reported in March.
His comments came in context of discussing Florida’s Republican-led attempt to protect children from being pawns in the political push for normalizing transgenderism; specifically, to ban transgender medical procedures for little kids.
“What’s going on in Florida is, as my mother would say, close to sinful,” Biden said, in an interview with The Daily Show. “I mean it’s just terrible what they’re doing.”
He also said then, “It’s cruel. We [should] make sure we pass [federal] legislation like we passed on same-sex marriage [to say] you mess with that, you’re breaking the law and you’re going to be held accountable.”
The rest of the world is waking up to the wickedness of the transgender movement and how it’s destroying children.
Biden? The Democrats? Their cabal of complicit enabling doctors on the left? They’re digging deeper to exploit and experiment more.
What comes to mind is a passage of Luke, speaking of those who harm God’s children: “It would be better for him to have a millstone hung around his neck and to be thrown into the sea than to cause one of these little ones to stumble.”
Meanwhile, in this life, the children still suffer from Democrat evils. And they will — until those of godly minds make them stop.
