Trans man discloses the HORRIFYING reality of gender transition surgery: 'I've lost absolutely everything'
Scott Newgent is a 47-year-old transgender man and the founder of TReVoices, where she is an outspoken advocate against child transgender “treatments.”
Newgent found herself in a vulnerable position when her Catholic wife began to joke that Newgent was a man born in a woman’s body, and the two decided to see a transgender therapist.
“I started to think, wow, what would my life have been like if I was born a male?” Newgent tells Allie Beth Stuckey.
But she wasn’t born a male, and now children who are much more vulnerable than she was are being affected.
“42% of these boys would grow up to be, you know, homosexual males or same-sex attracted,” she tells Stuckey.
“We have a society that thinks that transgenderism and homosexuality are the same thing.”
“There’s no study that says it’s beneficial for these kids. There’s seven studies that came out and said they were beneficial — all been retracted or modified,” Newgent explains.
However, Newgent wasn’t privy to all the information she has now and chose to begin medically transitioning just weeks after she met with the transgender therapist.
Now it’s left her with health complications.
“It was wow, I wonder if I was born in the wrong body. Next week, therapist. Next week, hormones. Next week, appointment for the plastic surgeon for the top surgery. Four weeks later I had my first surgery,” she tells Stuckey.
In the eight years since she began her medical transition at age 42, she’s had seven surgeries.
“I’ve had a pulmonary embolism, I’ve had a stress-induced heart attack, I have had a reoccurring infection, I mean, to the end I had an IV sick tube or picc tube or whatever in my heart,” she explains, but that’s not all she’s suffered.
“I have a handicapped arm for life, I had a ligament protruding through it, I’ve had sepsis, I’ve lost my house, my car, my home. Everything, I’ve lost absolutely everything.”

Another Christian artist deconstructs and goes ... DRAG?!
If you grew up in early 2000s youth groups, then you’re likely familiar with the 1990s Christian band Caedmon’s Call.
But what you’re likely not familiar with is the band's lead singer Derek Webb "deconstructing" — and putting out a song praising drag queens.
The song is called “Boys Will Be Girls” and features his friend drag queen “Flamy Grant.”
Webb says he no longer identifies as a Christian but rather as a progressive.
The song features lyrics like “sometimes boys will be girls / sometimes armor will be pearls / what you put on / oh it shows the world how hard you’re fighting sister” and “I heard Jesus loved and spent his life with those who are abandoned by proud and fearful men / so if a church won’t celebrate and love you / they’re believing lies that can’t save you or them.”
While Webb is no longer a Christian, he still refers to Jesus, the Bible, and the church as authoritative in people’s lives.
“He’s really just using it as a mallet to get you Christians to do what he thinks is right, even though he doesn’t actually believe in Christ any more,” Allie Beth Stuckey comments.
Though he may believe in the person of Jesus, it’s not the same.
“You can’t just believe that Jesus was a good teacher, because he also said that he was Lord. He also said that he was the son of God, and so he’s a liar, in which case he wouldn’t be a good teacher,” Stuckey explains. “Or he is a good teacher, because he’s not a lunatic, he’s not a liar, and therefore the only other option that you’re left with is that he was who he says he was.”
Stuckey, who used to be a fan of Webb, finds it all extremely disappointing.
“It’s pretty disturbing,” Stuckey says. “They seem so sincere, they seem so good. It’s like how could you be writing those songs and feeling and singing those lyrics about the wonders of God and the majesty of Jesus and the beauty of the gospel and your heart still gets so calloused and still gets so hard and your mind gets so ignorant.”
“That’s pretty scary.”

Ne-Yo EXPOSES publicist's fake apology, says what he REALLY thinks about child gender transition
R&B artist Ne-Yo went viral this past Sunday after slamming parents who allow their kids to make “life-changing decisions” through gender “transitions.”
“Parents have almost forgotten what the role of a parent is. It’s like, okay, if your little boy comes to you and says ‘Daddy, I want to be a girl’ and you just let him rock with that, you just let — he’s five,” Ne-Yo is recorded saying.
“If you let this five-year-old boy decide to eat candy all day, he’s gonna’ do that. When did it become a good idea to let a five-year-old, let a six-year-old, let a 12-year-old make a life-changing decision?” he continued.
The backlash on social media was fast and furious, and several media outlets condemned him as being “transphobic" (no surprise there).
Ne-Yo’s publicist quickly published an apology on his Instagram account that expressed Ne-Yo’s “deepest apologies,” telling his fans he’s “always been an advocate for love and inclusivity in the LGBTQI+ community.”
The apology went on to say, “Gender identity is nuanced and I can honestly admit that I plan to better educate myself on the topic, so I can approach future conversations with more empathy.”
However, Ne-Yo, who was outraged by the behind-the-scenes damage control, had other plans.
On Tuesday, Ne-Yo posted a video response on Instagram that basically said he didn’t agree with the apology that his publicist put out.
“I need y’all to hear this from the horse’s mouth and not the publicist’s computer. So check this out, first and foremost I do not apologize for having an opinion on this matter. I am a 43-year-old heterosexual man raising five boys and two girls. Okay? That’s my reality,” he began.
“I will never be okay with allowing a child to make a decision that detrimental to their life. I will never be okay with that. I don’t care,” he continued.
While Ne-Yo noted that he will “definitely” be educating himself more on the topic, he said he doubts “that there’s any book anywhere or any opinion that somebody’s gonna tell me that’s gonna make me okay with letting a child make a decision like that.”

Tori Kelly & Bronny James: Why are young stars collapsing?
There has been a disturbing trend surfacing in the news lately.
Young stars like LeBron James’ son, who recently suffered a cardiac arrest, have been collapsing despite otherwise being extraordinarily healthy.
Allie Beth Stuckey is worried and thinks we may need to be asking some questions — but believes we also shouldn’t be jumping to conclusions.
“For people to come to an immediate conclusion — that it has to be because of the vaccine, because of political reasons, because that’s expedient for you to get clicks or whatever — I don’t like that, because we really don’t know,” Stuckey says.
“It could be because of mRNA, or it may not be. Either way, it’s pretty scary,” she adds.
Bronny James plays basketball for the University of Southern California and suffered a cardiac arrest during a workout. Luckily, he is now in stable condition and no longer in the ICU.
Even Elon Musk has come out of the woodwork to comment on what’s going on with young athletes suddenly collapsing.
“We cannot ascribe everything to the vaccine, but, by the same token, we cannot ascribe nothing. Myocarditis is a known side-effect. The only question is whether it is rare or common,” the CEO of Twitter, now X, tweeted.
LeBron’s son is not the only one who has been in the news lately. Two-time Grammy winner Tori Kelly is being treated for blood clots in her lungs and legs after being rushed to a hospital on Sunday after collapsing.
Stuckey believes that ascribing everything to the vaccine, while it has been a major change in our society recently, is not the way to go about this.
“That can’t be our automatic reaction every time, our automatic assumption, because we live in a fallen world. There are a lot of things that can wreck our health, tiny microbes, things that we don’t even know. There are a lot of factors that go on in people’s lives that we just, we don’t know about,” she says.
