[00:00:00] This is the FCB Podcast Network. Just Listen to Yourself presents I'm Just Saying with Kira Davis. Last year a doctor at Texas Children's Hospital came forward to blow the whistle on their barbaric so-called gender transition program for children. The whistleblower not only exposed a program at
[00:00:26] Children's Hospital most people never realized existed, he detailed horrific treatment practices including limited or completely absent psych evaluations, offering double mastectomies to adolescent girls and the pressure parents receive from doctors to comply with expensive surgical and
[00:00:45] pharmaceutical treatments or risk losing their children to suicide or the child welfare system. Now that doctor is being investigated by Biden's Department of Justice and faces up to a decade Ethan Haim, 34, of Dallas was a resident at Texas Children's Hospital in April of 2023
[00:01:05] when he decided he could not ignore what he saw as egregious medical malpractice when it came to treating children for gender dysphoria. He originally came forward anonymously telling reporter Christopher Rufo, I am absolutely sick to my stomach, we're ruining them. Said Haim
[00:01:24] in the original report from last year, it is absolutely astonishing so many of the charts that I have just perused and read through as I'm doing my work. They have serious mental health issues, they're autistic, they have previous suicide attempts, they're depressed, they're on anxiety
[00:01:41] medications, they have a disability of some kind, it's just absolutely wild. Haim also shared a story about a 10-year-old girl who came in presenting as a boy named John. The girl expressed fear and
[00:01:55] discomfort about her period and for those thinking 10 might be too young for one of those, it's not. Says Haim, the conversation gets going and the provider refers to her as him and she says John
[00:02:07] what's going on what can I do for you today? And then the mom replies and accidentally refers to her daughter as a her and she says well she's having these kind of issues and it's kind of pain
[00:02:18] and then the girl turns around looks at the mom and she goes I'm a he mom, I'm a he and I'm watching this exchange and the girl is a beautiful girl but she's dressed like a boy very masculine, baggy pants
[00:02:29] oversized shirt and then the doctor asks this girl how are your periods coming along? Would you like for your periods to go away? Do you feel uncomfortable? And the girl looks at the doctor and says
[00:02:41] yeah can we do that? Yes I would love that and the provider tells the girl it's totally fine you don't have to have a period at all if you don't want to. The mom had some real concerns and
[00:02:51] this provider totally shut her down. Haim told the reporter these gender transition treatments could earn the hospital up to 70 or 80 thousand dollars per case while innocent law-abiding Americans are being murdered by criminals pouring over our southern border or having their property
[00:03:09] stolen at will and without consequence by brazen smash and grab gangs while terrorists take advantage of our chaotic immigration mess while human trafficking skyrockets and the national security threat rises higher and higher every day while inflation has left families grambling for the
[00:03:27] very basics of the American dream. While all this is going on Joe Biden's department of justice has decided the best use of their time is to go after a doctor who exposed a medical program
[00:03:41] that is likely involved in a very dark form of medical malpractice at the expense of children. The four-page indictment alleges the doctor inappropriately accessed patient records under false pretenses even if that were the case this hardly seems like an issue for the federal justice
[00:03:58] department to spend their resources on. This is an issue for the state but perhaps the feds don't care for that idea because the state of Texas has come down hard on TCH leading to the drawdown
[00:04:11] of their controversial gender transition program. This is simply another way to punish Texas for their audacity of operating as a sovereign state and another way to make an example out of anyone
[00:04:23] who makes a public display of their wrong think. These are dark times but dark times breed brave men. Hame is just one of many who will be asked to pay the cost for the truth but the truth is its
[00:04:36] own reward and thus will always deserve a defense. You can contribute to Ethan Hame's legal defense at his crowdfund page at givecentgo.com slash Texas underscore whistleblower.
