The whistleblower who exposed the covert continuation of transgender procedures on minors at Texas Children’s Hospital says the Biden administration is targeting him as part of a politically motivated attack.

There has been a great deal of (seemingly warranted) scrutiny directed at Texas Children's Hospital since reports emerged two weeks ago of the Department of Justice going after whistleblower Dr. Ethan Haim, a resident at Baylor College of Medicine, on charges of improperly accessing and disclosing patient information in violation of HIPAA. In 2023, Haim told journalist Christopher Rufo that the hospital was continuing to perform "gender-affirming" surgeries on minors — a practice that was outlawed by Texas Lawmakers in September 2023. The uproar over Haim's targeting was followed by reports of a visit from FBI agents to a nurse...

Back on June 10, we told you the story of Eithan Haim, who blew the whistle on Texas Children's Hospital performing "gender-affirming" surgeries on minors, 1) after the hospital had claimed to have shut down the program, and 2) after Texas passed laws banning such surgeries for minors. We remember when the Left thought whistleblowers were heroes. Agents from the Department of Health and Human Services knocked at his door and said he was under investigation for violating HIPAA, legislation that makes it illegal to share protected health information. And as we reported Tuesday, a second whistleblower from Texas Children's...

CV NEWS FEED // The Biden administration sent a pair of FBI agents to the home of a nurse who asserted that staff at her hospital were committing Medicaid fraud in order to subject children to illicit “transgender” procedures. “According to a new whistleblower, doctors at Texas Children’s Hospital [TCH] were willing to falsify medical records and break the law to keep practicing ‘gender-affirming care,’” scholar Christopher Rufo wrote in City Journal Tuesday. This whistleblower, Rufo noted, is Vanessa Sivadge, “a registered nurse at [TCH] who has worked extensively with the hospital’s ‘transgender’ patients.” Sivadge told Rufo that TCH, America’s...

This is where we are right now as a country. The Biden regime has sent two FBI agents to intimidate a nurse who exposed controversial practices at Texas Children’s Hospital. Christopher Rufo recently shared on X, “The Biden Administration sent two FBI agents to intimidate a nurse who told the truth about the child sex-change program at Texas Children’s Hospital. The regime is mobilizing to threaten and imprison anyone who opposes ‘transgender medicine.’” Writing for the City Journal, Rufo detailed the events that led to the FBI’s intimidating encounter with the nurse.

A surgeon whistleblower says his savings have been “wiped out” by lawyers after he exposed a Texas hospital’s secret procedures on kids. Dr. Eithan Haim, a former Texas Children’s Hospital surgeon, told Fox News that he has had to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars in response to an investigation against him. The doctor is reportedly a whistleblower who is behind the release of documents that allegedly show the hospital had not abided by Texas’s ban on transgender surgeries for minors. Texas law prohibits prescribing puberty blockers and hormones to children. While the Texas Children’s Hospital has reportedly said it...

Daily Wire Editor Emeritus Ben Shapiro interviewed Dr. Eithan Haim, the whistleblower for the bombshell story about secretive transgender surgeries for minors at the Texas Children’s Hospital, who was hit with targeted harassment by the Biden administration’s Department of Justice. As The Daily Wire reported, Haim said for him the story all started in September 2022, when he saw The Daily Wire’s investigation of Vanderbilt University’s transgender clinic, where so-called “gender-affirming” care for minors was described as a “big money maker” and irreversible treatments such as double mastectomies were being performed on children.” He then learned that the hospital where...
