Move blocking funds through Medicaid and Chip to make it harder for vulnerable children to get healthcare, experts say The Trump administration finalized a rule on Tuesday to end gender-affirming care through Medicaid and the Children’s Health Insurance Program (Chip), a move that will make it harder for vulnerable children to access healthcare and that eschews evidence to advance an anti-transgender ideology, opponents say.

    Edward could you back this false information with peer reviewed facts? I know I'm engaging with someone who has blindly drank the Kool aid but this is a cruel policy. In my eyes gender affirming care is vital and I don't understand the mental gymnastics occurring where picking and choosing what gender affirming care is allowed. Testing and giving military who are assigned male at birth who identify as male testosterone is gender affirming. Is it okay in your eyes for AFAB woman to get breast implants or is this type of gender affirming surgery also an affront to your existence?

    I don't see how I'm a bigot when I don't want children to be the brainwashed into getting a life altering surgery and be tricked into taking drugs that are known to cause cancer and other major medical complications I believe that you can be whatever you want to be but nobody has the right to trick you into doing things to support somebody's agenda and the real bigots are those who won't see the other side of the story

    I don’t see how I’m a bigot

    Of course you don’t. Because bigots never think they’re bigots. Just like how you never see anyone admit they’re a racist or a pedophile- yet, they still won’t stop whining on truth social.

    My god you’re pathetic. Jesus is weeping because of your hate.

    No Jesus was celibate meaning he didn't engage in relationships also God was against the homosexual lifestyle it's in the Bible God vaporized 2 Cities filled with homosexuals and people say Jesus is God incarnate so if he was in favor of the homosexual lifestyle why would he have vaporized those two cities
