Nationwide Public Radio (NPR) lately did a narrative about how the Trump administration is cracking down on using Medicaid and Medicare for so-called ‘gender affirming care’ particularly on the subject of kids.
That is one other 80/20 concern that the overwhelming majority of the general public helps, it would even be 90/10. Most individuals don’t imagine that kids needs to be concerned in any of this. We don’t permit kids to get tattoos, why would we permit them to get irreversible (and pointless) surgical procedure that may have an effect on them for the remainder of their lives.
Regardless of public outcry, Democrats and the left normally, have made it clear that they merely won’t let go of this concern.
The language within the NPR story exhibits that.
NewsBusters stories:
Touted as an unique story on Nationwide Public Radio from well being reporter Selena Simmons-Duffin, “Trump’s HHS abandons risk to withhold Medicare and Medicaid funding over trans care” dutifully repeated the “gender-affirming look after youth” misnomer within the lead whereas offering solely trans-supportive sources.
The Trump administration is abandoning its most aggressive try to finish gender-affirming look after youth nationally, in line with an official doc obtained by NPR.
The doc exhibits that the Division of Well being and Human Companies won’t be finalizing a proposed rule that may have blocked all Medicaid and Medicare funding for hospitals that present pediatric gender-affirming care…
The published model that aired on NPR’s All Issues Thought of Monday added a “harmful” adjective to the combo.
Simmons-Duffin: ….The American Medical Affiliation and the Kids’s Hospital Affiliation each urged the federal government to withdraw it. They mentioned it violated a number of legal guidelines and set a harmful precedent….
That is precisely why for years now, conservatives have been calling for the defunding of NPR.
They current each concern via the lens of the far left and fake that it’s the rational, cheap, and regular place.
Defending kids is the cheap place. There’s nothing harmful about that.
