On Friday, Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine, who claims to be a Republican, signed an executive order banning transgender surgeries for children under the age of 18 at any Ohio hospital or ambulatory facility. That's good, right? Wrong.
The order comes a week after the governor vetoed sub-HB 68, a bill that not only would have banned transgender surgeries on children, but also would have outlawed chemical castration, puberty blockers, and men participating in women's sports. It also included a provision that would allow recourse for women harmed by men participating in their sports.
When he vetoed the SAFE Act, DeWine parroted left-wing trans activists, claiming, without evidence, "Ultimately, I believe this is about protecting human life. Many parents have told me that their child would not have survived, would be dead today. They would have taken their life when they were teenagers."
Apparently, he isn't worried about suicide when it comes to banning mutilating irreversible surgeries for mentally ill children.
The blowback from Ohio leaders and citizens was enormous. It's not clear whether that had any effect on DeWine's decision to ban trans surgeries for kids.
The order reads, in part:
WHEREAS, although I vetoed Substitute House Bill 68, I stated clearly in my Veto Message that I agreed with the General Assembly that no gender transition surgeries should be performed on anyone under the age of 18 and I directed agencies under my purview to draft rules to ban this practice in Ohio;

and WHEREAS, the Ohio Department of Health has drafted rules that would prohibit gender transition surgeries on anyone under the age of 18 in Ohio’s hospitals and health care facilities, including ambulatory surgical facilities; and WHEREAS, these rules are necessary to protect Ohio’s children and families; and WHEREAS, Section 3701.13 of the Ohio Revised Codes authorizes the Ohio Department of Health to supervise all matters relating to the preservation of the life and health of the people of Ohio; and WHEREAS, Section 3722.06 of the Ohio Revised Code authorizes the Ohio Department of Health to promulgate rules establishing health, safety, welfare, and quality standards for licensed hospitals; and WHEREAS, Section 3702.30 of the Ohio Revised Code authorizes the Ohio Department of Health to promulgate rules establishing quality standards for health care facilities, including ambulatory surgical facilities...

What his mind lost, his wallet gained.
Kiddie transitioners are pedophiles.
Guess we know something about dewine then.
These RINO bitches always try to fall back on “parents choice” or some crap like that. They forgot they are supposed to protect citizens from evil. Especially the most innocent.
No surprise, just look at him.
Abortionists, facing the loss of income due to the repeal of Roe vs Wade, invented the child mutilation industry. Think of transing as the post abortion abortion.
During the COVID fiasco this guy revealed himself as an unapologetic Nazi.
No. A distributor of his wife’s pie recipes.
The illusion of choice in elections is a thin, transparent curtain. Across all societal institutions is the same goal: the corruption of the human ideal.
DeWine fell under the influence of a crazy radical, Amy Acton, his health commissioner during Covid, who showed herself to be a radical, anti-democratic control freak who knew no boundaries to her attempt to take over the state. She is also strongly progressive ie pro abortion and no doubt pro-transgenderism. She convinced DewIne this was all a matter of “following the science.” I smell her machinations behind this insufferable stupidity by the governor.
No excuses. For an adult? A politician? He is just stupid? Really?
No. He is a child mutilator. Pure and simple. By denying the age of consent he joins the ranks of pedophiles, rapists and other mutilators. The correct term is sociopath and he needs to go to hell.
