Here's what we know and what you DEFINITELY should NOT do:
Here's what we know: On January 28, President Trump issued Executive Order 14187, “Protecting Children from Chemical and Surgical Mutilation,” which (illegally) bans medical providers in the U.S. from providing gender-affirming care to any trans person under the age of 19. Last week, the Department of Health and Human Services issued “whistleblower guidelines” for implementing that Order. These guidelines would allow health care workers, clinical staff, and unrelated third parties to report providers who give gender-affirming care to young trans people, even if it meant violating a patient’s privacy. HHS also opened an online portal to take reports. IMAGE: HHS whistleblower website. What you should NOT do: We can’t emphasize enough that you should NOT go to the snitch line’s address, follow the instructions, and submit a false report. Spamming the snitch line with false reports could hinder the Trump Administration’s heroic work “protecting children!” Because everyone knows that the “best” “protectors of kids” are the ones who were friends with Jeffrey Epstein!
