    Your "god" is irrelevant.

    It's nice to know that Cruciferous Vegetable Joe has nominated someone who is qualified to be Assistant Secretary of Health.......in Sudan.

    Then Levine should/could have simply answered no to the question.

    I think it should be the child's decision, but only as an adult. There are some whacked out parents that wanted a boy instead of a girl a would mutate their child to satisfy their own self serving ambition.

    You just can't admit that chopping off (or chemically castrating) a pre-puber's penis or breasts is a BAD idea? What's the problem here. Instead of talking about the issue you are worried about Rand Paul.
    SAD!

    And she may have not answered based on the context. That is what I'm asking for and none of you seem to know what that context is.

    It's literally in the video with the exchange.

    Maybe this will help you → https://www.tampafp.com/u-s-senator...chel-levine-transgender-issues-with-children/

    Direct question → “Do you believe minors are capable of making such a life-changing decision of changing one’s sex?”, Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) asked Levine.

    Rachel's response → In response, Dr. Rachel Levine thanked Paul for his “interest” in the question of transgender medicine, calling it “a very complex and nuanced field with robust research and standards of care that have been developed. If I’m fortunate enough to be confirmed, I will look forward to working with you and your office and coming to your office to discuss the particulars of the standards of care for transgender medicine,” Levine said.

    You should really try not be so coy and evasive..

    LOL - Right.

    Either you don't get it or you don't want to get it.

    Let's try this again, shall we?

    If no one is talking about gender change surgery for anyone under the age of 18, then Levine should/could have simply answered no. There would be no need for evasion.

    Biden really dug into the dumpster for this pick. You'd think he could have found someone who didn't send Covid patients back to nursing homes to be Asst. Secretary of Health, but apparently the position demands the most reckless and incompetent person possible in what little is left of his mind...

    This post is nonsensical. I shared the direct U.S. Senate testimony and you call in "propaganda".

    Why would anyone explain another person's argument, when the that person's argument is provided directly? Why do you want an interpretation? Do you require all of your information be interpreted by others for you? This does explain much about today's Leftists.

    Don't sweat it. This is what liberals do when they can't form a rebuttal. because there is actually NO good rebuttal or argument for this topic.

    It's damn strange. You give them direct source material and even that is not good enough for them.

    Anyone voting to confirm this total loon should not be sitting in the U.S. Senate. China Joe put up a mentally ill person, because he thinks it appeals to the woke crowd. Even his child sniff and groping ass, should realize this is insane.

    Yeah, this is truly disgusting. I know someone who knows someone who is forcing a transition on their 5 year old because the kid said he wanted to wear a dress one day . (A FREAKING 5 YEAR OLD)
    I'm all for some one doing what they want with their own body but not when they are that young.
    TRULY DISGUSTING

    Thanks for the link, but WHO (other than Paul) is promoting this hormone therapy for children under 18? That's what I'm asking, because as we all know, strawman arguments are par for the course on the Right.

    I agree with the fake libertarian. The govt knows best how to raise your kids, not you.

    She has literally gone on tour, giving lectures about how to do it for prepubescent children. You can hear it directly from the horse mouth below.

    Oh, awesome, an opportunity to actually agree with conservatives on something... except I have to wade through waist-deep transphobia to do it. No thanks. Keep it classy, folks.

    what in the heck is transphobia? Who in the heck is afraid that some trans is going to attack them? THis is about the guy nominated by Biden and how he won't answer the question as to whether or not he supports addadicktome or lopmydickoffme surgery for minors

    Way to ask a question and then demonstrate the answer. Quite impressive.

    Interesting, it had a chance to state its position clearly and unequivocally but it refused to do so. Your defense is an embarrassment. Senator Paul is spot on here.
