The Charlie Kirk Show - A Father's Fights to Save His 11-Year-Old from Medical Mutilation with Libby Emmons

00:00:00.000 Jack us up again for Charlie Kirk.

00:00:01.000 Well, he's on assignment in Wisconsin.

00:00:03.000 We speak to Libby Emmons, the editor-in-chief of the Postmillennial, about a very serious topic, the medical mutilation of our children, done in the name of gender affirmation.

00:00:15.000 This is being done at children's hospitals across the country.

00:00:19.000 And we got a lot of emails on this one, but I want to make sure everyone knows this is a serious topic.

00:00:24.000 It's maybe not meant for little ears, but every parent in America needs to hear what Libby has to say.

00:00:30.000 We also have a huge announcement with our partners over at Salem now.

00:00:34.000 If you go to Salem now, starting tomorrow, you will be able to watch the explosive new documentary, Border Battle, that's been put out by Turning Point USA.

00:00:43.000 It's only available at Salem now.

00:00:46.000 This documentary, Border Battle, you sit down with Border Patrol agents, even ones who are currently serving law enforcement, special forces.

00:00:55.000 And this thing, I got to tell you, it's gory, it's graphic, and we tell you the truth about the cartel wars that have been spilling over across the southern border.

00:01:04.000 Border Battle Salem Now.

00:01:06.000 Go watch it immediately tomorrow.

00:01:07.000 Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.

00:01:09.000 Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campus.

00:01:11.000 I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.

00:01:15.000 Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks.

00:01:18.000 I want to thank Charlie.

00:01:19.000 He's an incredible guy.

00:01:20.000 His spirit, his love of this country, he's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA.

00:01:28.000 We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.

00:01:37.000 That's why we are here.

00:01:40.000 Brought to you by the Loan Experts I Trust, Andrew and Todd at Sierra Pacific Mortgage at andrewandTodd.com.

00:01:49.000 Charlie Kirk on assignment in the Rust Belt.

00:01:53.000 He's traveling to Wisconsin with Senator Ron Johnson.

00:01:56.000 We're up there to explain to the American people, to the workers of this country, as Charlie would say, the muscular class, the people who take showers before and after work.

00:02:07.000 Explain to them what's happened to our country. 0.51

00:02:12.000 Explain to them what's happened to our trade, what's happened to our manufacturing, the fact that our oil and energy policy was outsourced to the Middle East in the name of empire.

00:02:22.000 Our manufacturing was outsourced to East Asia, again, in the name of empire.

00:02:28.000 So who benefits? 0.93

00:02:29.000 Quibono, the imperialists.

00:02:32.000 And they've become fat and rich off of the backs of our labor, slave labor in many cases, and off of the wealth of the Middle East.

00:02:43.000 They made the Middle East incredibly wealthy. 0.62

00:02:45.000 The Saudis, the Iranians, why do you think they have all the money they do now? 0.98

00:02:48.000 It's quite simple. 1.00

00:02:49.000 The spice must flow, right?

00:02:52.000 Well, the spice can flow here in the United States as well.

00:02:56.000 We have our own spice now.

00:02:57.000 We don't need theirs.

00:03:00.000 But because this has led in addition to the rapid financialization of our markets, all the way back to 2008, the money printer has not stopped since 2008, since the financial crisis.

00:03:14.000 We have yet to actually recover from the mass financialization that's gone on since then.

00:03:21.000 Oh, they call it quantitative easing.

00:03:22.000 Isn't that so great?

00:03:23.000 They're pumping money, trillions of dollars into our system, and they call it easing.

00:03:27.000 It's easing.

00:03:28.000 It's not easing.

00:03:29.000 You're printing money nonstop and you're handing it off to your friends at BlackRock and Blackstone.

00:03:33.000 And they're using it to purchase up the agricultural producing land, the food producing land.

00:03:38.000 They're purchasing up homes.

00:03:39.000 They're purchasing up entire divisions, subdivisions, everything.

00:03:44.000 You'll own nothing and you'll be happy.

00:03:46.000 Where have I heard that before?

00:03:47.000 Oh, right.

00:03:48.000 Right before Klaus Schwab sent his thugs out to go and frisk me and my team when we were in Davos, Switzerland.

00:03:55.000 But the more money they have, the more affluent they become.

00:03:58.000 Crazy has just turned up at an exponential level.

00:04:01.000 And I wanted to bring in Libby Emmons here, the great Libby Emmons, editor-in-chief of the post-millennial, to break down this horrifying story that she is an exclusive of out of New York.

00:04:14.000 In addition to the fact of all the news that she's been breaking out of Philadelphia, so much so when it comes to the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, that the Philadelphia Inquirer is attacking her and attacking me simply for doing our jobs and simply for doing the job of reporting what the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia gender unit, what their co-founder is up to using her own words and statements.

00:04:40.000 Libby Emmons, welcome to the Charlie Kirk Show.

00:04:43.000 Thanks so much, Jack.

00:04:44.000 Glad to be here.

00:04:46.000 I did not know that the Inky was attacking us.

00:04:48.000 The Inky.

00:04:50.000 The hometown paper?

00:04:52.000 My God.

00:04:52.000 Well, so I know, right?

00:04:54.000 Well, so it's what's interesting is that the Inquirer, when you and I were growing up, the Inquirer was the paper of record for the area.

00:05:00.000 Now it's just considered another left-wing rag. 0.95

00:05:02.000 I don't actually know anyone who still reads it, but for a lot of people, it's like many of these institutions that the new Wokerati use as skin suits, basically, to push their agenda and then use the imprimatur.

00:05:14.000 You see this as well with CNN, The Washington Post, the New York Times, Wall Street Journal in some cases, certainly with Rolling Stone Magazine, so many others. 0.57

00:05:23.000 They just wear these labels and they say, well, if the inquirer wrote, it must be true.

00:05:29.000 The same thing is true of the New York Times.

00:05:31.000 Very similar situations.

00:05:33.000 So which one do you want to tackle first?

00:05:35.000 Let's go through. 0.93

00:05:37.000 Let's throw.

00:05:38.000 Producer Andrew says Wokerati sounds like an amazing sports car.

00:05:42.000 Okay, you can buy the first one.

00:05:44.000 So Libby, let's break down though.

00:05:47.000 It is electric, so be careful.

00:05:48.000 Yeah, not going to be doing those turns down in Monaco.

00:05:52.000 But let's talk about your exclusive because it is your exclusive out of New York State.

00:05:57.000 Everything that's going up there in this case, this horrifying case, I believe it's a custody battle that's also turned into a battle for the gender of a man's daughter.

00:06:09.000 Yes, that's correct.

00:06:10.000 This is a pretty difficult story to stomach.

00:06:13.000 I could imagine that a lot of parents would find it very difficult to hear about.

00:06:17.000 This family, the marriage is coming to an end, which already is its own tragedy.

00:06:23.000 And then it turns out that there is a difficulty between the parents over whether or not the girl child, the daughter, should be a boy or should be let to grow up as a girl.

00:06:36.000 So the father is very insistent that the child should not go on what are called puberty blockers, which suppress the natural development from child into adult and are substantially dangerous drugs that are being pushed as though they are candy and can just, you know, no big deal.

00:06:59.000 So the father does not want this to happen.

00:07:01.000 The mother has told him that she would die on this hill.

00:07:04.000 The law guardian who has been appointed in the case to look out for the best interests of the child has said to the father that there's not much time.

00:07:12.000 If they want to get the child on these drugs, they have to act now because she is entering puberty.

00:07:20.000 And also they have spoken to a nurse practitioner at the Golasano Children's Hospital in Rochester, who has also advocated for the use of these drugs.

00:07:32.000 The child has already been socially transitioned at the school, meaning that the school calls the child by a new boy's name, allows her to use boys' bathrooms, and also refers to her with male pronouns.

00:07:50.000 I want to tell you about one of the most important organizations in the country created by co-founder of the Home Depot, Bernie Marcus.

00:07:56.000 The folks at Job Creators Network defend and advance policies that help small business owners across America grow their business.

00:08:03.000 We talk a lot about labor in the media, and we're always responding to the complaints of labor, and that's fine.

00:08:09.000 Obviously, it's important, but who actually creates the jobs that labor actually is able to enjoy?

00:08:14.000 Big business has their lobbyists, but small ones don't always have the time or money to defend themselves against the forces of global corporations and their crony capitalist pals in the kingdom of Washington, D.C. Job Creators Network, that's right, Job Creators Network, fights for small business owners across America, and they're looking for a few good men and women to join their growing army of small business advocates.

00:08:37.000 They'll train you to be the face and voice of Main Street in your communities and beyond.

00:08:44.000 That is jobcreatorsnetwork.com.

00:08:46.000 Small business is the heartbeat, the backbone, the lifeblood of our economy and the American dream.

00:09:01.000 If you are a small business owner, if you're involved, go to jobcreatorsnetwork.com.

00:09:06.000 That is jobcreatorsnetwork.com.

00:09:11.000 So, Libby, this is horrifying.

00:09:14.000 For folks that aren't as familiar with some of these terms, these new terms that the left is so fantastic at coming up with, they're constantly coming up with something new, something beyond.

00:09:24.000 And let's boil it down to brass tacks.

00:09:27.000 So they're euphemisms, of course, but they're trying to call something horrifying as if it's just benign and normal and routine.

00:09:35.000 When they say social transition, they mean they're calling someone a false name.

00:09:40.000 They mean they're calling a lie that this girl is now a boy and that they are going and they're making it that everyone else has to refer to her by this name in their classroom, everyone else at the school.

00:09:55.000 And if I remember correctly from your reporting, the court as well has said that the father, when he has, I guess he has visitations, that during those visits, he must refer to his daughter by the new name.

00:10:08.000 He cannot even call his daughter her own name, the name that he and his wife at the time gave her.

00:10:16.000 He is forbidden by law, the new law of the state of New York, to even call her her own name.

00:10:23.000 Is that correct?

00:10:24.000 Yes, that's correct.

00:10:25.000 That is what the court has determined.

00:10:27.000 So, interestingly, the court also said that neither parent can speak to the child about gender, but they did say, as I reported, that the parents must refer to her, including the father who disagrees with this entirely, must refer to the daughter as a boy, must use the male name, and must use male pronouns.

00:10:47.000 So, in saying that you're not allowed to talk to the child about gender, but you must go along with the gender identity, it's almost as though the court is bypassing its own order right at the outset in favor of medically gender transitioning this child who is only 11 years old.

00:11:08.000 So, we're talking about an 11-year-old.

00:11:10.000 And what's the current situation?

00:11:12.000 So, it's a custody dispute.

00:11:13.000 And so, the father doesn't want to have the daughter transition, but it's the mother that's driving this.

00:11:20.000 Is that what's going on?

00:11:21.000 Yes, that's my understanding after talking to the father that this is something the mother initiated when the child was.

00:11:28.000 So, it's interesting if you track back.

00:11:30.000 The child was interested in going to beauty pageants, was very interested in frilly girly things at about six or seven years old, and did attend a beauty pageant, from my understanding.

00:11:40.000 It was after that, when she was about eight or so, she started to get a cursory understanding of puberty and of growing up, realized that she did not want to undergo menstruation, which is understandable, did not want to undergo increased breast size, and said that she wanted to be a boy.

00:12:01.000 And it was right around that age that the mother started working to, as I said, socially transition the child, to change her name at school, to change pronouns, to change the way that she was treated instead of a girl as a boy.

00:12:17.000 The father had said, you know, it doesn't matter what clothes she wears. 0.82

00:12:22.000 It doesn't matter if she's not interested in girl things. 1.00

00:12:24.000 None of those things make you female. 1.00

00:12:27.000 Your biology makes you female and there's no way to change that. 0.99

00:12:31.000 But yeah, he discovered after about a year of these conversations that his wife. 1.00

00:12:39.000 I'll pull it back in here.

00:12:41.000 This was going on for a year before the father even knew.

00:12:44.000 Is that what you're saying?

00:12:45.000 Yeah, that's a full year.

00:12:50.000 So they were doing this to his own daughter.

00:12:53.000 This wasn't like, you know, sometimes, you know, Tanya, I'll take our kids to swim class.

00:13:01.000 But even then, you know, which class do you want to go to?

00:13:04.000 Which one makes sense for the schedule, et cetera, et cetera, you know, survival swimming for the little one.

00:13:09.000 You know, but even then, of course, we're in communication.

00:13:12.000 Obviously, we're together.

00:13:12.000 These guys, it sounds like they're divorced.

00:13:14.000 But she's doing something where she's perpetuating a change in their own daughter, his own daughter, a daughter they're supposed to share together against his wishes.

00:13:26.000 And now, there's something you've mentioned in your reporting that I wanted to break down a little bit.

00:13:30.000 And that was called gender affirming.

00:13:32.000 What is the standard?

00:13:33.000 And that is the standard of care.

00:13:34.000 What is gender affirming?

00:13:36.000 What does that mean?

00:13:37.000 Gender affirming is a totally manufactured, made-up term meant to cover up a lot of really heavy-duty medical procedures and treatments, including, as we said, puberty blockers, which the FDA has already said are dangerous, can lead to brain swelling.

00:13:56.000 The manufacturer of these drugs, Lupron, just made by pharmaceutical company ABVI, has said that people should not be on these drugs for more than three months, does not recommend them for a gender affirmation, despite the vast increase in sales that they have had.

00:14:10.000 So that's one aspect.

00:14:11.000 Gender affirming care also means giving cross-sex hormones after puberty blockers to teens to encourage the growth of secondary sex characteristics of the opposite sex. 0.71

00:14:25.000 So this will see boys develop breasts, girls develop facial hair. 0.84

00:14:31.000 It will also lead to the atrophy of reproductive systems and sterility. 0.88

00:14:36.000 Gender affirming care also means double mastectomies of healthy breasts for girls and penile inversions and the creation of what they call a neo-vagina or the appearance of the sex organs of the opposite sex. 0.89

00:14:52.000 This is a horrifying situation. 0.96

00:14:53.000 This is called chaos.

00:14:54.000 This is a horrifying situation for any parent.

00:14:56.000 And the idea that behind, and the philosophy behind this, I know this is heady stuff and I know it's lunchtime for a lot of people out there.

00:15:02.000 I'm sorry, but you need to listen to this because any parent that could be caught in a similar situation needs to understand that this nightmare is going on in our own country right now in the state of New York, probably going on in other states.

00:15:15.000 This is just one brave father who didn't know what else to do.

00:15:18.000 So he came forward to you.

00:15:20.000 And this idea that gender affirming care, that if the child says they want to change their gender, then you must affirm it.

00:15:26.000 There's no diagnosis.

00:15:28.000 There's no testing.

00:15:29.000 There's no discussion over what's the best for the child.

00:15:32.000 No, they push them right into this stuff.

00:15:34.000 They put them right into the program because they want to get you as young as possible.

00:15:40.000 Are you like every one of us that thinks our country has gone nuts, whether it's Russia Gate market crashes or selling oil to China or this insane inflation?

00:15:49.000 Well, right now, you need a financial mind who understands your concerns, but at the same time, as a Christian worldview of money.

00:15:56.000 That's why you should talk to my friends at PAX Financial Group.

00:15:59.000 Look, I've given my money to PAX Financial to manage.

00:16:01.000 If it's good enough for me, I think it's good for you.

00:16:04.000 Like all of us, they have concerns, but they also have hope.

00:16:06.000 In this market, you must have a financial person who shares your hope and at the same time can help you with biblical responsible investing, B-R-I, biblical, responsible investing.

00:16:17.000 That's why I want you to text the word Charlie to 74868.

00:16:22.000 That is Charlie to 74868 to connect with my friends at the PAX Financial Group.

00:16:27.000 Biblical responsible investing.

00:16:28.000 So take out your phone, just text Charlie to 74868.

00:16:32.000 That's 74868.

00:16:34.000 Text Charlie to connect with my great friends at the PAX Financial Group.

00:16:41.000 Libby, breakdown for us.

00:16:42.000 What have we learned?

00:16:44.000 I want to be serious about this.

00:16:45.000 We were talking, the terms you used were penile inversions and neo-vaginas.

00:16:52.000 Is this type of stuff going on in children's hospitals across our country?

00:16:56.000 Yes.

00:16:56.000 So there are gender clinics all over the country at children's hospitals.

00:17:01.000 Many of these clinics treat patients up to 25 years old, and many of them say outright that they would not do what they call bottom surgery or genital surgery, what we think of as sex change surgery.

00:17:14.000 They would not do this on people under 18.

00:17:18.000 However, many of these organizations, these hospitals, follow what are called WPATH guidelines, which are coming from the World Professional Association for Transgender Health, which specifies that in some cases, surgeries could be performed at lower ages if there are mitigating circumstances and everyone thinks this is the right thing to do.

00:17:40.000 So we do know that there have been cases of these kinds of surgeries being performed on people under the age of 18.

00:17:48.000 And certainly double mastectomies are performed on healthy girls and their healthy breasts down to the ages of 13. 0.60

00:17:56.000 And this was true of a gender clinic in Texas.

00:18:00.000 There is a doctor in Miami, Florida who does this and calls this practice of double mastectomies of healthy breasts yeeting the teeth. 1.00

00:18:10.000 That's actually what she says.

00:18:11.000 She advertises her services on social media and gains clients this way and posts very dramatic photos of herself with young girls who she has operated on with gaping wounds and gashes where their breasts should be. 0.94

00:18:26.000 This is called care in our country.

00:18:28.000 Many other countries have forbidden this. 0.83

00:18:31.000 In the UK, they have shut down their primary gender clinic and they have to reassess it after realizing that it just was not actually good for people.

00:18:41.000 In France, there is a heavy caution on use of puberty blockers.

00:18:45.000 In Sweden, they have said outright no that they're not going to do this anymore.

00:18:49.000 In the U.S., we are so driven by profit and the children's hospitals are as well.

00:18:53.000 So it's at all of these clinics.

00:18:55.000 It's at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia.

00:18:57.000 The founder, one of the co-founders of the gender clinic at CHOP, which you've spoken about, it's such a renowned hospital.

00:19:06.000 And people need to understand that when you're in that area, growing up in Philadelphia, God forbid something happens to one of the kids.

00:19:12.000 You go to Children's Hospital, Philadelphia.

00:19:14.000 They were the number one hospital for children in the entire country.

00:19:18.000 They are beloved.

00:19:19.000 They are sacrosanct.

00:19:20.000 Everyone trust them.

00:19:21.000 You know, if something happens to your little boy or little girl, you take them in shop, God forbid, and they will make them better.

00:19:28.000 You will get the best standard of care there, period.

00:19:30.000 That's how important that name is.

00:19:32.000 When we hear these stories about how she's recruiting children from homeless shelters like Covenant House, going into the foster system, because sure, the foster kids aren't messed up as it is.

00:19:42.000 They're not faced with vulnerable, tense, high-stress, traumatic situations.

00:19:46.000 And now you're injecting these types of experiments and procedures on these children.

00:19:51.000 And the founder of the gender unit there, I'm not even going to call it a clinic because it's an experimentation unit.

00:19:56.000 So the gender experimentation unit at CHOP, what they're doing is they're proud of it.

00:20:00.000 And by the way, they've instituted a dark alliance with Dr. Rachel Levine, AG Josh Shapiro, to give them the air cover on this.

00:20:08.000 The ACLU is coming in talking about it.

00:20:10.000 The AMA is saying you and I should be prosecuted.

00:20:13.000 By the way, I'm serious.

00:20:14.000 The AMA just put out something today or yesterday saying that journalists should be prosecuted by the Department of Justice for reporting on physicians that are performing these experiments.

00:20:28.000 They just said that today.

00:20:29.000 Libby, what's your final thoughts on all of this?

00:20:31.000 There is just one more thing I wanted to say about puberty blockers and the harm that they can cause.

00:20:36.000 One of the reasons that Nina Dowshin at CHOP gives for prescribing puberty blockers is that they will prevent the need for future surgeries.

00:20:55.000 If you are a boy, you're going to end up shorter. 0.94

00:20:57.000 They also have with them come bone loss and other issues.

00:21:02.000 So when people say that these drugs are completely reversible, they are ignoring even the evidence of their own doctors who prescribe these drugs.

00:21:11.000 This is absolutely horrific.
