Even though I wrote the above headline, even I shake my head in disgust when I read it. Mastectomies performed on children have increased by 389 percent over the last five years, while the overall number of so-called “transgender” children has doubled. So how and why is this abhorrent trend exploding?

“This is not an accident,” says Tulsi Gabbard, and she’s naming names of those she says are responsible.

On a recent edition of her podcast, the former Hawaii Democrat talked about the staggering rise in the number of young girls having double mastectomies, citing a research paper published by a prominent medical journal detailing the spike, and the results of a UCLA study showing the overall number of “trans” kids has doubled over the last five years, as well. Those numbers are as troubling as they are staggering.

According to a research paper that was recently published in the Journal of the American Medical Association of Pediatrics, there has been a 389 percent increase in children receiving mastectomies from 2016 through 2019.

I wanna say that again: children receiving mastectomies. The UCLA School of Law, Williams Institute, published a study that found the number of transgender youth has doubled in just the past five years.

I’m not sure which is worse: that this happening at all, or the number of adults who promote it.

It’s no accident the number of transgender youth doubled in the last 5 years, and children mastectomies are up 389%. It’s a direct result of the radical ‘woke’ agenda being pushed on our kids by so-called “healthcare professionals,” MSM/social media, and even Biden directly. pic.twitter.com/FliY3MWuET

Again, who should we blame, according to Gabbard?

This didn’t just happen. This is very intentional and it’s the consequence of this radical agenda that is being pushed on our kids. They’re rejecting the existence of objective reality by rejecting this most fundamental truth of the differences between a biological male and female.

Now, even as there are no long-term studies on the effects of these dangerous treatments on our kids, those in power in government and so-called medical professionals continue to push them.

“Many of the standard protocols that they are pushing include puberty blockers, and hormones,” the former Democrat noted, “some of which were just recently flagged by the FDA because of their plausible link to serious brain disorder, cognitive problems.” She then took a direct shot at Joe Biden:

Now that hasn’t stopped President Biden from going and telling parents that quote, ‘Affirming your child’s identity is one of the most powerful things you can do to keep them safe.’

Let’s go straight to the horse’s a mouth as he mumbles through the following, shall we?

To everyone celebrating Transgender Day of Visibility, I want you to know that your president sees you. … our entire administration sees you for who you are, made in the image of God and deserving of dignity, respect, and support.

But we know it’s hard when there are those out there who don’t see you and don’t respect you.

For example, the onslaught of anti-transgender state laws attacking you and your families is simply wrong. This administration is standing up for you against all these hateful bills.

Uh-huh — and that’s not all.

To transgender Americans of all ages, I want you to know that you are so brave. You belong. I have your back. pic.twitter.com/mD4F0m3rU1

And Biden is also standing up for irreversible mutilation of children’s bodies; not only previously-mentioned double mastectomies but hysterectomies and castrations, as well. A White House press release at the time even worked in “systemic,” one of the Democrats’ favorite buzzwords:

Today, the Biden-Harris Administration recognizes Transgender Day of Visibility, an annual celebration of the resilience, achievements, and joy of transgender people in the United States and around the world.

Every American deserves the freedom to be themselves. But far too many transgender Americans still face systemic barriers, discrimination, and acts of violence.

This mind-numbingly repetitive nonsense would be systemically boring as hell if it wasn’t so horrific.

Incidentally, as I reported in late October, the National Health Service in the U.K. warned doctors that even social transitioning, such as changing a child’s name and pronouns or the way he or she dresses is not a “neutral act” and could have “significant effects” in terms of “psychological functioning.”

And in the U.S., nearly 80 percent of voters oppose so-called gender-reaffirming surgery for minors. The question is, why do Joe Biden and  Democrat Party continue to refuse to listen?
