Letitia James Orders NY Hospitals to Continue Trans Surgeries on Minors

By Lincoln Brown 

 

Democrats are sending a message: election or no election, executive orders or no executive orders, reality or fantasy: “This is our world, and you might be welcome to live in it, so long as you toe the line.” Make no mistake, they may have lost the White House, House, and Senate and elected David Hogg as the DNC vice chair, but they are digging in and remaining intransigent while they plot their return to power. And they aren’t content to merely lose their minds over confirmation hearings or the fact that the party is over at USAID.

The AP reported that on Monday, New York Attorney General Letitia James sent a stern warning to the state’s hospitals. The warning came in a letter to the hospitals that despite Trump’s executive order to halt funding for transitioning treatments for minors, hospitals that did not continue what the Left refers to as “gender-affirming care” would be in violation of New York’s anti-discrimination laws. James commented, “Regardless of the availability of federal funding, we write to further remind you of your obligations to comply with New York State laws.” The outlet noted that hospitals in Colorado, Virginia, and Washington D.C. had hit the pause button on the procedures while they evaluated the order.

In its coverage, Newsweek gave a cursory nod to the contents of Trump’s order. But true to form, cited experts who backed up the usual progressive talking points:

Harper Seldin, an attorney with the American Civil Liberties Union’s LGBTQ & HIV Project, told the Associated Press: “It’s very clear that this order, in combination with the other orders that we’ve seen over the past week, are meant to not protect anyone in this country, but rather to single-mindedly drive out transgender people of all ages from all walks of civic life.”

That’s to be expected. Last week, Newsweek reporter Joshua Rhett Miller wrote a softball piece on the story of Steven Joseph Hayes, a man who contends he is a woman and who regrets the crimes he committed against a Connecticut family almost 18 years ago…
