Attention parents! New database provides detailed breakdown of which facilities are performing sex-change procedures on minors IN YOUR AREA



Stop the Harm is a database created by Do No Harm that tracks and reports on “gender affirming care” for minors taking place in each state, the goal being to “encourage positive change and protect children” from the insidiousness of gender ideology.

With a click of your mouse, you can easily see the exact hospitals in your state that are offering gender affirming care to children, how many sex-change surgeries they’ve performed, how many prescriptions they’ve written, and how many patients they’ve seen.

The site also provides statistics on the worst offending hospitals and doctors in the nation.

It’s a wealth of resources for parents who want to stay informed on one of the most egregious issues of our time.

“This is an ideology; this is not science, certainly not medicine. Medicine is intended to treat something that is wrong — to heal,” says Liz Wheeler. “Over 90% of children with gender dysphoria will outgrow that feeling once they have hit puberty, once they become adults.”

“So if we actually wanted to help young people with gender disorders, we would send them to counseling; we would wait for them to grow up; and we would adamantly refuse to transition them,” she continues.

While the movement is certainly driven by a destructive ideology, it’s also driven by something perhaps even more nefarious: the love of money.

“You'll never guess how much money these hospitals and doctors profited off of mutilating these children in the name of gender ideology,” says Liz, who invites the director of programs at Do No Harm, Michelle Havrilla, to the program to discuss the revolting statistics on the Stop the Harm database.

“We're told, of course, by the left that sex changes on children don't happen, but what did you find when you were analyzing this data?” Liz asks.

“The data show that approximately 14,000 children throughout the country under the age of 17 and a half have received some type of sex-change treatment — whether it be surgery, such as a body modification surgery, hormones, or puberty blockers — totaling, in terms of claims submitted, $120 million over a four-year period between 2019 and 2023,” says Havrilla, adding that this is “a very, very conservative estimate.”

To amalgamate the statistics in its database, Do No Harm only “looked at insurance data,” as it was barred from accessing other sources of information.

“Kaiser for one does not allow their data to be public. We don't have information on self pay, and we also don't have information on charity pay,” says Havrilla, adding that in the state of California where gender affirming care is rampant, “Kaiser is probably the number one payer in the state.”

“When we looked at California, we saw a total of $23 million of submitted charges within that time frame of 2019 to 2023, so without the addition of Kaiser to that, we suspect that it's probably higher,” she explains.

Another factor that’s skewing the numbers to be lower than reality is the fact that Do No Harm was “very conservative in [its] methodology.”

In order to ensure that treatments were indeed within the category of gender affirming care, Do No Harm “matched [procedures and prescriptions] with a gender diagnosis code or an icd10 code.”

We did this “to make sure that really there was not any ambiguity in what we were presenting,” Havrilla tells Liz.

To sum that up, the stats you’ll find on the Stop the Harm database are already telling (and horrifying), but they’re merely scratching the surface when it comes to the reality of how many children are being butchered by the medical industrial complex that sees our most vulnerable population as an opportunity to get rich.

JD Vance DESTROYS supporters of gender affirming care for minors: ‘And they think WE’RE weird’



The Harris campaign has been relentless in its mission to brand Trump’s VP pick, JD Vance, as a “weird” “white supremacist.”

But Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” knows that couldn’t be further from the truth.

“JD Vance is not a white supremacist, he’s just someone saying basically true things that everybody used to know 20 years ago,” Rubin says.

In a recent interview with the NELK Boys on the “Full Send Podcast,” Vance illustrated Rubin’s point perfectly, when he was asked about medically altering children based on leftist ideology.

“These people think that everything that’s different about men and women is, they use this word ‘socially constructed,’” Vance told the NELK Boys. “Yeah, some of our differences are cultural, some of our differences are just basic biology.”

“They’re so uncomfortable with that, that they try to biologically change men into women and women into men. ‘Cause if you can get rid of the biological differences, then you can get rid of all the differences, too,” he continued.

However, Vance made the point that leftists who believe in gender ideology think the differences are a bad thing.

“It’s a source of one of the coolest parts about being, like, a living, breathing, human being in the world,” Vance said. “Women think about stuff slightly differently than men do, and that is a good thing, and we shouldn’t try to destroy those differences in the name of ‘equality.’”

Vance also explained that the differences between men and women is “not an excuse to sterilize kids, to try to turn a girl into a boy or vice versa.”

And while the left claims the medical procedures children are being subjected to are not permanent, Vance sees it differently.

“If you give hormonal therapy to a 9-year-old kid, that is not totally reversible. I mean these kids have bladder problems and other stuff that’s just gross. And why are we doing this to our kids without any real confidence in the science? It makes you realize a lot of the public health establishment in this country is pretty deranged,” he said.

Vance also is under the impression that if your child wants to undergo hormonal therapies in a state like California, and you disagree with it, you’re at risk of having your child taken away.

“I’m a father of three. That would make me go absolutely like, ‘We’re moving to the hills, keep your hands off my kids, this is crazy town,’” Vance told the NELK boys, adding, “Their view is that we should be teaching kids gender reassignment, and they think that we’re ‘weird.’”

“Doesn’t make a lot of sense,” he added.

Meet Eithan Haim, the heroic whistleblower who’s also — a criminal?



What happens when your personal convictions put you in direct violation of the law?

That’s the question Dr. Eithan Haim, a surgeon in Texas, was forced to confront last year when he discovered some disturbing information about Texas Children’s Hospital, where he was serving his residency.

Despite the institution’s pledge to cease providing transgender medical care to minors in the wake of Governor Greg Abbott and Attorney General Ken Paxton passing a law that deemed sex changes on minors and puberty-blockers “child abuse,” Haim found that medical staff was continuing to offer services in secret.

He then stepped into the courageous shoes of a whistleblower, but part of being a whistleblower is providing proof, which in this case, is medical records. However, to share sensitive medical information is a violation of HIPAA.

Haim ultimately decided the risk was worth it and gave conservative journalist Christopher Rufo medical records to prove that the hospital was continuing to provide transgender care to minors.

Now, Dr. Haim has been indicted on four accounts for HIPAA violations.

Today, he meets with Glenn Beck to share his story.

“Thank you for what you’ve done,” says Glenn, praising Haim not only for his courage to speak up but also his willingness to go through his savings and retirement funds to pay for the attorneys — and ultimately for the protection of children.

“[My wife and I] had a decision to make,” he tells Glenn. “Do we try to fight back, or do we submit to the ideology and try to make it all go away? We knew that we were going to have kids someday, and what kind of world would we be delivering them into if there’s not men and women in this world who are willing to sacrifice in order to deliver them to a better future?”

“We’ve sacrificed a lot — everything we have, but what you gain back is so much greater,” he says, noting that his wife is currently pregnant with their first child.

“You raise [children] to have the virtues to have a good and fulfilling life,” but “this government is criminalizing those virtues; the justice system is protecting criminals going after the innocent; the medical system is creating sickness and going after the healthy; the education system is miseducating people. It’s like every institution is doing the opposite of what it’s meant to do,” Haim laments. “People like us have to do something about it even if that means sacrificing.”

We applaud Dr. Haim’s courage to stand up for the innocent and fight back against those who prey on the most vulnerable. To donate to Dr. Haim’s cause, visit givesendgo.com.

GOP governor forces radiologist to resign from state board of medicine after doctor openly opposed genital mutilation of kids



At the behest of a Republican governor, a renowned interventional radiologist in perhaps the most conservative state in the nation has resigned from its Board of Medicine because he publicly opposed gender-related medical interventions for minors.

Last year, Mark Gordon, the Republican governor of Wyoming, confirmed Casper radiologist Dr. Eric Cubin to serve on the state's Board of Medicine, which mainly grants and renews the licenses of Wyoming physicians and physician assistants. Cubin was then reconfirmed earlier this year for a term that was scheduled to end in 2028, the Cowboy State Daily reported.

'At the end of the day, I stood up for my principles, I stood up for what’s right, and I stood up for the children in the state.'

Likewise earlier this year, Wyoming lawmakers were considering a bill to ban so-called gender affirming care for minors. Nicknamed "Chloe's Law" after high-profile detransitioner Chloe Cole, the Children Gender Change Prohibition bill bans any form of transgender-related medical intervention — including cross-sex hormones, puberty blockers, and, of course, surgical genital mutilation — on children.

Dr. Cubin, who does not necessarily oppose such medical interventions for adults, sent an email to all state representatives in February, encouraging them to support Chloe's Law.

"The evidence and medical data on gender affirming care is all over the board," Cubin wrote, according to the Daily. "Unfortunately, much of the data on both sides is politically charged and it is difficult to decipher exactly what is true and what is not true."

Both chambers of the Wyoming legislature appeared to agree with Cubin. The bill sailed through the state House and Senate, and Gov. Gordon signed it into law in March, albeit reluctantly, according to the Daily.

"I signed [Chloe's Law] because I support the protections this bill includes for children; however, it is my belief that the government is straying into the personal affairs of families," he said at the time.

Gov. Gordon also took issue with Cubin's email about Chloe's Law, claiming that it demonstrated an inappropriate bias for a member of the Board of Medicine. "Medical professionals should be confident that their licensure, which is their livelihood, will be handled professionally and clinically examined on merits alone," Gordon said. "Even the appearance of bias can be disquieting as well as erode confidence in the board’s presumed impartiality."

Gordon additionally stated that since Dr. Cubin is a member of the Wyoming Medical Society, his email could have been perceived as representing the views of WMS as a whole, even as WMS leaders ardently opposed Chloe's Law. "We believe that decision [about transgender-related care for minors] should be between a patient and their medical provider," said Kris Schamber, president of WMS.

In the email, Cubin did take WMS to task, claiming that its board had been overtaken by "several very vocal, extremely liberal members" whose "woke" views ran counter to those of its general membership. "It seems that [WMS board members] have decided to prioritize politics over their stated mission of physician advocacy," he said.

On April 22, Gov. Gordon sent Cubin a letter, informing him that while he respected Cubin's right to free speech, he did intend to "remove" Cubin from the Board of Medicine because of his political advocacy. Rather than wait for his ouster, Cubin resigned, effective April 29.

Cubin has since claimed that he is at peace with his actions and the consequences that resulted from them. "At the end of the day, I stood up for my principles, I stood up for what’s right, and I stood up for the children in the state of Wyoming," he said.

Gordon told the Daily that he has no further comment on the matter.

New York Times warns of 'ideological extremism' by transgender activists, stresses detransitioners' nightmare of 'gender-affirming care' as children​



The New York Times published an article warning of the potential dangers of children undergoing so-called "gender-affirming care." The article cited several individuals who had detransitioned after realizing that puberty blockers and transition surgeries were not the cure-alls that doctors and transgender activists had advertised.

The New York Times published an opinion piece on Friday by writer Pamela Paul, titled: "As Kids, They Thought They Were Trans. They No Longer Do." The piece stands out from previous NYT articles because it reaches a far different conclusion regarding transitioning children with unproven procedures and drugs that may have hidden and life-altering consequences.

According to the op-ed, transgender activists have pushed "ideological extremism," which demonizes any opposition to children enduring potentially disruptive treatments for gender-oriented pursuits.

Paul noted, "Clinicians are expected to affirm a young person’s assertion of gender identity and even provide medical treatment before, or even without, exploring other possible sources of distress."

"Many who think there needs to be a more cautious approach — including well-meaning liberal parents, doctors, and people who have undergone gender transition and subsequently regretted their procedures — have been attacked as anti-trans and intimidated into silencing their concerns," Paul continued.

The article cited a recent study published in the Archives of Sexual Behavior that pointed out that 39% of young detransititioners held the "belief that gender dysphoria was an expression of other problems."

The study also found that 55% "believed they had been inadequately evaluated, medically or psychologically, before they transitioned."

Paul pointed out, "Parents are routinely warned that to pursue any path outside of agreeing with a child’s self-declared gender identity is to put a gender dysphoric youth at risk for suicide, which feels to many people like emotional blackmail."

A parent of a gender-confused child told Paul about a meeting with a specialist, who allegedly said, "In front of my son, the therapist said, 'Do you want a dead son or a live daughter?'"

A February 2021 survey published in the Journal of the Endocrine Society determined that it "could not draw any conclusions about death by suicide."

The Wall Street Journal published an article citing 21 clinicians and researchers from nine countries that found there was "no reliable evidence to suggest that hormonal transition is an effective suicide prevention measure."

Research from the Australian Journal of Psychology published in 2021 stated, "Children with gender dysphoria often experience a range of psychiatric comorbidities, with a high prevalence of mood and anxiety disorders, trauma, eating disorders and autism spectrum conditions, suicidality and self-harm. It is vitally important to consider psychiatric comorbidities when prioritizing and sequencing treatments for children with gender dysphoria."

The New York Times interviewed multiple individuals who had weathered gender-focused treatments as children, but detransitioned after they had matured.

Grace Powell – who started cross-sex hormones and had a double mastectomy to transition in her senior year of high school – told the Times, "I wish there had been more open conversations. But I was told there is one cure and one thing to do if this is your problem, and this will help you."

Powell, 23, said none of the medical professionals asked about "reasons behind her gender dysphoria or her depression" or previous trauma during her medical or surgical transition. Powell revealed that she had been sexually abused as a child.

Powell admitted, "The process of transition didn’t make me feel better. It magnified what I found was wrong with myself."

"I expected it to change everything, but I was just me, with a slightly deeper voice," Powell confessed. "It took me two years to start detransitioning and living as Grace again.

The article from the left-leaning New York Times read, "As one detransitioned man, now in a gay relationship, put it, 'I was a gay man pumped up to look like a woman and dated a lesbian who was pumped up to look like a man. If that’s not conversion therapy, I don’t know what is.'"

The individual added that if she transitioned to a man, she could pursue relationships with women instead of being criticized for being a lesbian "dyke," and "not a real girl."

Paul Garcia-Ryan – now a 32-year-old homosexual psychotherapist who detransitioned at age 30 – said, "When a professional affirms a gender identity for a younger person, what they are doing is implementing a psychological intervention that narrows a person’s sense of self and closes off their options for considering what’s possible for them."

WATCH Tucker Carlson’s head explode when expert tells him the CAUSE of the trans boom. (Hint: It all started with Obama.)



While leftists love to argue that transgenderism has been around since the dawn of man, the truth is, it’s a new concept – a very new concept that's gained incredible momentum over the last decade.

Many wonder where the trans boom originated and why it’s become so trendy in recent years.

Well, looks like we may just have an answer.

Dave Rubin plays a clip of a recent episode of “Tucker on X” in which the former Fox News anchor met with policy expert and documentarian Chris Moritz to discuss this very subject.

“In terms of the pace of growth for, let's say, clinics serving pediatric patients on gender issues, in the last 15 years in the United States, we had zero now to over a 100 clinics for kids,” he told Tucker.

“Why?” asked Tucker, whose brow furrowed in growing concern.

“It’s a very complicated question,” answered Chris, “and there's a lot of different reasons why.”

“I would say that the biggest single policy catalyst for this explosion is Obamacare. When ObamaCare was enacted in 2010,” a provision was “very quietly … written into the law,” Chris explained.

Due to this fine-print policy, “insurance companies were mandated to provide coverage for what is deemed to be medically necessary gender affirming care,” and “as a result of that, between 2010 and 2016, there was a 50% increase in sex reassignment surgeries, a 25% increase in insurance coverage for transgender individuals, and then at the very end of the Obama administration … an additional amendment to the Affordable Care Act was made whereby gender identity could no longer be a basis for denial of coverage by private insurance companies.”

“As a result of that, the next year from 2016 to 2017, there was a 150% increase in sex reassignment surgeries in the United States.”

At this, Tucker’s expression goes from deeply concerned to downright horrified. To hear their conversation, watch the clip below.

Tucker Carlson turns Asa Hutchinson into 'a PUDDLE of NOTHINGNESS' over the subject of child castration



Last Friday, Blaze Media teamed up with the FAMiLY Leader to host the first presidential forum of the 2024 Republican primary season.

A charismatic and unapologetic Tucker Carlson conducted the interviews, some of which were well-received by the audience while others might be described as bloodbaths.

An unfortunate Asa Hutchinson fell into the latter category.

The Arkansas governor’s confusing stance on the subject of chemical castration for children didn’t go over so well with Tucker, who had several pointed (and entirely justified) questions for Hutchinson.

“But you said that children should be able to choose their gender, and their parents should be able to affirm that, and the state has no role in getting involved,” Tucker fires at a visibly flustered Asa.

“You’re saying that a child shouldn’t be able to choose a bathroom, but he can choose his sex. I don’t understand,” he continues.

“Let me finish!” Asa barks, clearly unsettled by the audience's applause for Tucker’s string of questions.

“I want the government to stay out [of schools],” he retorts, adding, “I want the parents and communities and our faith to guide us through these difficult decisions.”

Tucker isn’t satisfied with that answer though.

“You have repeatedly described delaying a child’s natural progression from childhood to adulthood through adolescence ... as quote ‘treatment,’” Tucker says.

He continues: “You believe, I suppose, that people can change their sex because if you don’t believe that, you wouldn’t call it treatment, would you?”

Dave Rubin fittingly describes Asa as “a puddle of nothingness” after Tucker hits him with this final question.

You have to see it to get the full picture. Watch the clip below.

Joe Biden shocks crowd by doubling down on this radical idea for kids



Joe Biden loves Pride Month.

In fact, he loves it so much that he’s using it to continue pushing for gender-affirming care for minors while speaking out against “anti-trans” bills.

Dave Rubin is tired of it.

“Joe Biden, the elderly man with dementia who sniffs little girl’s hair, the guy who’s pretending to be president but clearly is not pulling the strings,” Rubin says.

Rubin plays a clip of Biden at a recent Pride celebration.

“It’s wrong,” Biden said to an audience, “that extreme officials are pushing hateful bills targeting transgender children; terrifying families and criminalizing doctors.”

“These are our kids, these are our neighbors, it is cruel, it is callous. Not somebody else’s kids, they’re all our kids,” he continued.

“No, you old wind bag,” Rubin responds, “they’re the parents' kids. That’s all. My kids are not your kids.”

Biden is responding to the states, like Florida, that are pushing to make sure that if you perform these surgeries on kids and chemically castrate children, you will lose your license and possibly end up in jail.

But Biden isn’t just saying this to sound like an ally during Pride Month.

“He’s celebrating it,” Rubin says, “and he’s really pushing to legally advance it at every level and scare the hell out of everybody who pushes against it.”

Biden continued his speech to say, “We have to act as a nation. We need to push back against the hundreds of callous and cynical bills and laws introduced in states targeting transgender children.”

He added that these bills and laws “attack the most basic values and freedoms we have as Americans,” calling his own statement not hyperbole but a “fact.”

“It’s not a fact, you buffoon,” Rubin, who has done his research, says.

“There are no anti-LGBTQ bills. There are no bills to stop gay people from doing everything straight people can do,” Rubin continues, “there are no bills to stop lesbians from playing rugby, or bisexuals from turning their hair purple, or trans people from doing anything they want to do.”

“Again, this is about chemically castrating children; and for some reason, that elderly man with dementia is really into it.”
