President Trump handed a victory on a silver platter that has Leftists seething
Trump has done it again. The man knows how to win.
And President Trump was handed a victory on a silver platter that has Leftists seething.
The final, peer-reviewed version of President Trump’s bombshell review of so-called “gender-affirming care” for children dropped Wednesday, and it is an absolute massacre of the medical establishment’s sacred cow. After ten independent experts and research groups tore through it, not one of them could point to a single major error. The verdict is unanimous: there is virtually zero solid evidence that pumping kids full of puberty blockers and cross-s*x hormones is safe or effective, per what the lead author said to the New York Post.
Dr. Leor Sapir, the Manhattan Institute fellow who led the project, told the outlet the critics had every chance to expose mistakes and came up empty.
“They were given the chance to show mistakes, show errors. And they were not able to identify any,” Sapir said.
Even minor nitpicks didn’t touch the core conclusions on the pathetic state of the evidence or the glaring ethical problems. And get this: one of the reviewers was the former president of the Endocrine Society—the very group that’s been cheerleading these interventions for years. He still couldn’t find anything wrong with the report.
This report was born from Executive Order 14187, signed after Trump got back into office. The order stated that American doctors are “maiming” teenagers with experimental treatments that “must end.” HHS was told to deliver the cold, hard truth about what we actually know—and what we don’t—when it comes to treating gender-confused kids.
What they found is devastating for the activists. The studies the gender industry parades around are, in the report’s words, “very low quality.” We have almost no reliable data on long-term psychological outcomes, quality of life, or how many of these kids grow up to regret having their bodies irreversibly altered.
Meanwhile, the United Kingdom has already slammed the door shut: puberty blockers and cross-s*x hormones for minors are completely banned there.
The Trump report’s recommendation is simple and sane: hit pause on the drugs and focus on intensive psychotherapy until we actually know what we’re doing to these children.
When the draft dropped in May, the usual suspects lost their minds. Trans activist groups screamed that the report was “biased” because it came from the Trump administration.
Sapir pointed out the authors worked completely independently of HHS—and most of them are Democrats who would never vote for Trump in a million years. The team includes MIT philosophy professor Alex Byrne, Duke medical ethicist Farr Curlin, Colorado State philosopher Moti Gorin, psychiatrists Kristopher Kaliebe and Kathleen McDeavitt, endocrinologist Michael Laidlaw, and researchers Evgenia Abbruzzese and Yuan Zhang.
“We are very politically and ideologically a diverse group,” Sapir said. “Most of the authors are liberals, Democrats. They wouldn’t vote for Trump if he forced them to. This is a bi-partisan initiative.”
When the report was sent to three of its critics for formal review, only the American Psychiatric Association bothered to respond—and even they offered no substantive critique of the evidence.
Seven additional medical experts across multiple fields also reviewed it. Dr. Richard Santen, professor emeritus at the University of Virginia and past president of the Endocrine Society, called it “scientifically sound.” Others, including pediatric neuroscientist Dr. Lane Strathearn and bioethicist Dr. Johan Bester, praised its accuracy.
Bottom line: all the screaming, all the accusations of “transphobia,” all the attempts to cancel and smear—and not one critic could name a single factual error.
“They can condemn the report all they want, but they were not able to identify a single mistake. Not one,” Sapir stated.
This is what happens when actual science is allowed to speak instead of activist pressure and pharmaceutical money.
The gender industry has been running a grotesque experiment on America’s children, and Trump just pulled the emergency brake.
The medical establishment now has a choice: keep pretending this is “life-saving care,” or finally admit they’ve been winging it with kids’ bodies and futures on the line. The evidence is in, the peer review is complete, and the verdict is crushing.
