Biden's jaw-dropping move on behalf of trans insanity
Exclusive: Jerry Newcombe spotlights DOJ targeting of policy group working to protect children

The United States under the Biden administration is choosing to favor dangerous medical treatments for children dealing with gender dysphoria – and using the force of government against those who oppose such harmful treatments.
In recent months, the Eagle Forum of Alabama (the national group was founded by Phyllis Schlafly) has helped write legislation in that state to protect children with gender confusion from receiving "treatment" that could permanently damage them.
In his End of Day Report of Sept. 9, Gary Bauer writes, "After Alabama banned transgender surgeries on children, the Biden administration sued the state in federal court to block the law. But they're not just arguing against the constitutionality of the law. They are also going after a conservative public policy group that lobbied on behalf of the law." Of course, that group is the Eagle Forum of Alabama.
The United States' Department of Justice issued a subpoena in August demanding records from the Eagle Forum of Alabama, stating: "Several public statements suggest that Eagle Forum of Alabama staff may have had some involvement in drafting the legislation or its predecessor bills. As a result, the United States is issuing the enclosed subpoena for certain records in the Eagle Forum of Alabama's possession from Jan. 1, 2017 through the present."
The official subpoena demands: "any draft legislation, proposed legislations, or model legislation." This included all their communiques on the subject, e.g., "any social media postings."
TRENDING: I don't get no respect – do you?
Eagle Forum of Alabama responded to this "unprecedented request": "This should cause every single advocacy group or individual in America engaged in the legislative process to pause and consider the potential ramifications if any part of this subpoena is allowed to stand."
Kristen Ullman, president of Eagle Forum (nationally), comments on the wider issue here: "If the Department of Justice doesn't like your viewpoint it may target you next."
What is the government alleging was illegal? Certainly, it's not illegal for an organization to be involved with crafting legislation.
The Biden administration's action is particularly astounding because we do not yet fully grasp the long-term deleterious effects of the puberty blockers and body-part-removal surgeries to "cure" gender dysphoria.
In her eye-opening book, "Irreversible Damage: The Transgender Craze Seducing Our Daughters" (2020), Abigail Shrier chronicles the incredible harm being foisted on so many children in our society today, especially girls, because of this current fad of transgender mania.
Shrier, a writer for The Wall Street Journal, notes, "In 2016, natal females accounted for 46 percent of all sex reassignment surgeries in the United States. A year later it was 70 percent."
She adds, "Some small proportion of the population will always be transgender. But perhaps the current craze will not always lure troubled young girls with no history of gender dysphoria, enlisting them in a lifetime of hormone dependency and disfiguring surgeries. … No adolescent should pay this high a price for having been, briefly, a follower."

The left is imposing on this country a form of mental insanity. Both God and science teach us that we are either male or female. God said He has created us male or female in His image. Science teaches us that we have trillions of cells in the human body, and virtually every one of them provides a marker that you are either male or female.
Now, there is such a thing as gender dysphoria, where some children feel confused. "Am I a girl trapped in a boy's body?" they wonder. But experts say that about 95% of these children with gender dysphoria will grow out of this by around puberty – if the process is not interrupted along the way.
Tragically, there are many people in high places that are interrupting this process all too often.
And then when children go through with some form of transition, very often deep depression follows, as documented at www.sexchangeregret.com.
Dr. Ryan Anderson, author of "When Harry Became Sally," writes: "The most thorough follow-up of sex-reassigned people – extending over 30 years and conducted in Sweden, where the culture is strongly supportive of the transgendered – documents their lifelong mental unrest. Ten to 15 years after surgical reassignment, the suicide rate of those who had undergone sex-reassignment surgery rose to 20 times that of comparable peers."
The founders gave us the First Amendment to enshrine in the Constitution the right to freely practice religion and by extension, the right of conscience. We also have free speech rights and the right to petition our government in case of grievances. That would include lobbying for legislation for the good of society.
But the Biden administration is steamrolling over conscience rights, despite the Constitution.
Phyllis Schlafly herself once told me in a 2004 television interview: "The Constitution is not out of date. It's just as good today as when it was written." Would that it was being followed today by the Biden administration.
