Admiral Rachel Levine wants teachers and others to be ambassadors and truth-tellers about trans issues

We’re not sure when this video was made (September, we’re told), and we’re also not sure if we’d even have seen it under “Twitter 1.0” because it contains the g-word beneath video of Admiral Rachel Levine. As Twitchy has reported, the Biden administration is all-in on “gender-affirming care” for minors, and President Joe Biden himself shot a video for the Transgender Day of Visibility.

Still, watch this video and see Levine make the argument that teachers, school boards, community centers, and more become “ambassadors for science” when it comes to trans issues — these are the people who will be the truth-tellers against the ongoing fight against trans rights.

Watch as Levine says those opposing gender-affirming care are doing so from a background of politics, not science.

This is the same speech given as the keynote address at the WPATH conference in Sept. https://t.co/Ods9vadD90

WPATH = World Professional Association for Transgender Health.

There is nothing wrong with providing psychological support, but minors should not be subjected to life-altering drugs and surgery. They can make those decisions as adults. Levine accuses critics of being motivated by "politics," and not medicine, but in fact the reverse is true. https://t.co/SD7d80yB0J

“These conversations don’t have to be limited to a medical setting.” Haven’t we been told that we should get out of the conversation because it should be solely between the doctor the patient and the parents? Sounds like we’re back in the conversation now.

Biden wrote in an executive order in June:

My Administration must safeguard LGBTQI+ youth from dangerous practices like so-called “conversion therapy” — efforts to suppress or change an individual’s sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression — a discredited practice that research indicates can cause significant harm, including higher rates of suicide-related thoughts and behaviors by LGBTQI+ youth.

It can cause higher rates of suicide-related thoughts? Is this what the science really says? Are we being truth-tellers?

"If you're looking for suicide reduction, this isn't it."

Doctors sound alarm on sex reassignment surgery.

"If you follow them out 10 years … they have a completed suicide rate 19 times that of the general population … no improvement there."
