00:00:12.000His 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.
00:00:21.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:00:52.000So, I am a detransition activist, a former transgender kid, and former gender clinic patients.
00:00:58.000I went through the process of going through a social and medical gender transition starting at the age of 12 with a social transition, meaning that I changed the way I changed my name, I changed my pronouns, I changed the way that I presented myself through my hair and my clothing.
00:01:11.000And then at 13, I started undergoing the medical process with glupron to suppress my puberty, testosterone to replace my hormones.
00:01:20.000And at 15, I underwent a double mastectomy to remove my breasts.
00:01:23.000And I stopped punishing at 16 when I was studying childhood developments in a class of mine in high school.
00:01:30.000And I realized that I wanted to have children.
00:01:34.000I wanted to be a mother and embrace my femininity.
00:01:38.000And that by transitioning, I was losing those parts of myself.
00:01:44.000And since about a year after that, since I was 17, I have been speaking about my experience trying to advocate for a better standard of care for these children and young men and women who are going through this and for the rights of these children, of their families, of their parents and their caretakers.
00:02:03.000Do you feel like you were misled on the potential costs of this treatment when you were young?
00:02:10.000I was not informed of not only the medical complications physically, that the way that it could affect my body, most of the complications I'm experiencing now, I was not informed of.
00:02:24.000But at the age that I was, I just wouldn't have been able to consent.
00:02:28.000It's too much to expect of a child to make an irreversible decision around their developments, the development of them and their identity and their social lives of themselves sexually as potentially future parents.
00:02:45.000Where were you located when this happened?
00:02:48.000I live in California and I was born and raised in California.
00:02:52.000Were your parents involved in this decision?
00:02:56.000They actually did not want me to undergo any of this.
00:02:58.000They did not want me to be making any permanent decisions around my body.
00:03:02.000They wanted to allow me to just be a kid to experiment, but within boundaries.
00:03:09.000But they were told by our doctors that the choice was either between death or transition.
00:03:16.000What was it, and forgive the brutality of this statement, were they basically telling your parents it's better to have an alive son than a dead daughter?
00:04:08.000If they're suicidal, it's not because of their gender.
00:04:12.000It's not because of the way that they're born.
00:04:15.000It's something deeper, whether they have some sort of trauma or any psychological issue.
00:04:22.000You have to address that with your child.
00:04:24.000Final question, and I want to get Alex in on this.
00:04:27.000Chloe, I'm told by certain activists on campus that transition regret is not a real thing, that the detransition movement is marginal at best.
00:04:37.000Talk about how this is a growing community of people.
00:06:35.000And I didn't really have a niche or community where I felt like I could really fit in.
00:06:39.000So I turned to the internet, and with how closely knit the broader LGBT community seems, with so many people coming from these broken backgrounds, all coming together, seemingly as one.
00:07:03.000I wasn't directly interacting with anybody in the community at the time, but seeing how similar these people were to me, these creative, artistic, open-minded kids and young men and women, it gave me this convenient explanation for as to why I felt so different from the other women around me, even within my own family.
00:07:25.000There was a big part of it was a theory that people who are dysphoric, they present, I mean, it's really based on stereotypes.
00:07:34.000They present more like what is expected of the opposite sex.
00:07:39.000And they are insecure in their bodies because they have the brains of the opposite sex.
00:07:43.000And it was just, it was very convenient as somebody who was very curious about the world, who always wanted answers to everything.
00:07:49.000When you decided to detransition, you were very scared, I assume.
00:08:43.000I mean, we'll never know just how many children are being affected by this.
00:08:47.000But just from insurance data alone, there's thousands of children across the U.S. who are being put on these treatments.
00:08:54.000And just so everyone knows, I have had five people come up to me here at this event saying, my kid is now on TRT, Lupron, you know, divorced.
00:09:03.000And so, I mean, you guys probably know one or two people, right?
00:09:07.000And I just, so it's not like it's so isolated, so fringe that it's unheard of, right?
00:09:13.000So is it fair to say tens of thousands?
00:09:16.000I mean, probably tens of thousands in the last decade, right?
00:09:33.000If it's 100,000 people that are sterilized, and in a previous world, they would have two, three kids per, that's an impact on the population by 300,000.
00:12:45.000These people are being told that there's a genocide being waged against them, that there's a genocide being waged against children, that they are losing their right to life-saving health care.
00:12:56.000And what wouldn't you do when you believe that there is genocide being waged against a population of children?
00:13:02.000And so can you just talk about for a second some of the threats you've received, some of the experience?
00:13:07.000Because you came out as a detransitioner and you have been attacked a lot.
00:13:13.000Yes, and I have been from the very beginning.
00:13:15.000Before I even started speaking out publicly, before I was a public figure, just on my personal social media, when I talked about the pain of transitioning and detransitioning, the regret, the shame, these people who I thought were my friends or like a second family to me started turning their backs on me.
00:13:33.000They went out of their way to harass me, telling me that I was wrong, that I should have known better, that I wasn't a victim, that I had nobody to blame but myself, that I should be ashamed for talking about it, that I should just shut up because I'm harming the transgender community.
00:13:51.000What was the moment you decided you'd had enough, you'd been misled, and you needed to go back to the original you?
00:13:59.000That was after I, in my junior year of high school, was taking a class in psychology.
00:14:05.000And towards the end of the unit, it was very much focused on like family and children.
00:14:09.000And I mean, sometimes like fertility and breastfeeding were talked about in the consultations for these treatments.
00:15:48.000I mean, right now, there really aren't a whole lot of organized resources for detentioners or people who are regretting trenches, but Gen Spec is one that I would recommend.
00:15:59.000This Christmas, the new film from director George Clooney arrives.
00:16:02.000It's a Rag to Riches absolute crowd pleaser based on the number one New York Times best-selling book, this inspirational true story about one of the most difficult sports in the world and the 1936 University of Washington College rowing team that competed for gold at the summer games in Berlin will inspire you.
00:16:18.000This team rode out of need, need to eat, need to sleep, and it gave them an edge that captures the power of working together to overcome all odds while rowing for America.
00:16:26.000They don't make movies like this anymore, and it's filled with wholesome content that makes it an ideal multi-generational movie for Christmas.
00:16:32.000Joel Edgerton and Callum Turner star in this exciting and incredible story of courage, hard work, and determination, showcasing America at its best.
00:16:39.000Believe in each other, believe in the impossible.
00:16:41.000The Boys in the Boat open Christmas Day in theaters only.
00:17:26.000Yeah, I feel like I've been to these things for the last got to be four or five years, and this is by far the biggest and the highest energy.
00:17:32.000And what's noteworthy about it is Fox does not have a presence here.
00:18:06.000I think next year is going to be really fun.
00:18:08.000I might be the only person who thinks that in the whole country, but I've been preaching it, and I think this is the first hard piece of evidence that that's going to happen.
00:18:15.000Yeah, I want to reiterate two things that you said.
00:18:32.000When he talks about the fact that we have blown the record books away right here at this event, we beat last year by over like 3,000 tickets sold.
00:18:48.000And by the way, I'm not going to name the other conferences, but when you go there and you see, you know, the main session, and Dave, you've been to these before.
00:18:56.000You go to like, I'm not going to name names.
00:18:58.000You go to the general session, there's like 20 people sitting listening to like, you know, congress people speak.
00:19:03.000And right here, you've got standing room only.
00:19:04.000And when you stand on that stage and you look back out at the audience, I'm telling you, it's like as far as the eye can see.
00:19:11.000I mean, it's hard to capture on camera how big this space is and how big this venue is.
00:19:16.000Yeah, and I was leading a breakout yesterday morning.
00:19:19.000I think it was a 9:30 a.m. breakout, and the room was full, standing room only on some Monday morning.
00:19:27.000Like, this is what's going on at an event like this that shows the energy of the movement, a movement that people anticipate 2024 is going to be phenomenal.
00:19:47.000Like, there's a groundswell that's happening right now.
00:19:51.000Whether Fox wants to be here or not, it doesn't matter.
00:19:54.000The people's voice, what the people desire, like these fundamental tenets of our Republican democracy, those things are showing themselves strong again.
00:20:54.000This is cultural, and it's a big shift.
00:20:56.000And it's something that Charlie and Turning Point, you guys have done a great job at this, because the rabble-rousers, which, you know, sometimes that energy is necessary, but sometimes being classy is good too.
00:22:02.000Charlie was talking for parents, for dads to go out there and stand up.
00:22:06.000You want to talk about a dad that's standing up out there, Terry Newsome, the good Newsome, not like Gavin Newsome.
00:22:12.000Terry, tell us your story out of Chicago.
00:22:14.000Yeah, I started speaking up for my twins back at their high school about all the porn, the doctrination, and I got the attention of Antifa leftists, congressmen started coming after me.
00:22:39.000On the way out, my children had to go through it twice, even though I was the terrorist, which I don't understand why they did that to my kids.
00:22:46.000And if it wasn't for Matt Gates sending a letter to Garland Ring and Majorcas, a demand letter, I suddenly popped off the list in, I think around May or June last year.
00:22:56.000But he asked them, was I on a list because I was an outspoken school board parent, or that I was peacefully at January 6th.
00:23:33.000And by the way, Andrew, Charlie, the whole team, what's happening in Chicago, the inner city of Chicago, Terry got me connected with these guys.
00:23:42.000The videos, the interviews we got, the black inner city is rising up against the left.
00:23:47.000They are so sick of what's happening with the border and the invasion on there.
00:24:27.000And by the way, if you come to these events, it doesn't mean you're going to be on a terror watch list, but it just means you're probably going to be on a terror watch list.
00:24:33.000No, they're still rounding up January the 6th people.
00:25:33.000It's all about consolidation of power, total control, total domination of thought.
00:25:37.000We had this church post where we had some of our church people talking to these Palestinian protesters, and they were saying, you know, tell us why you're protesting.
00:25:45.000No one would even respond because they're paid shows.
00:27:37.000But I'll tell you, I'll feel afraid if I feel like the audience is not going to like this.
00:27:42.000The Nikki Haleys of the world, they're afraid of what the billionaires are going to be saying about what she has to say when she's on that debate stage.
00:27:50.000Yeah, and I think you've seen that, as you said in the comments from the main stage, you had some pretty strong words from even Tucker Carlson, Vivek, I mean, Steve Bannon.
00:28:02.000I mean, she was, I think her and the RNC were probably the two main targets because both, just, you're right, they exude an establishment aura.
00:28:12.000The way they operate, it's very exclusive.
00:28:15.000And that is the key to this event, actually.
00:28:17.000This is why this event is so popular: everybody's invited.
00:28:30.000You're exciting news to share about saving babies by providing ultrasounds.
00:28:34.000Right now, there is a dollar-for-dollar match, doubling the number of babies you'll save with pre-born.
00:28:38.000There are babies alive today about to celebrate their first Christmas because of what we did together a year ago at this time providing ultrasounds.
00:28:45.000And right now, you can save twice as many babies.
00:28:48.000Maybe you're already wondering about end of the year giving and want to give every dollar, get the most results.
00:28:52.000Or maybe you just want to know that a girl making this decision deserves the truth.
00:28:55.000So that next year at this time, she's picking out a Christmas stocking for her baby's first Christmas.
00:30:06.000Oh, it's beautiful, but I mean, the underlying secret.
00:30:09.000Yeah, the underlying secret is my mom actually ran for mayor, Gabrielle Hansen.
00:30:14.000And what happened is she was part of a federal investigation behind what's actually happening.
00:30:19.000There's billions of dollars that are being laundered through from Maricopa County into Williamson County, and thousands of bodies being trafficked by high state officials.
00:30:29.000And so, what happened is my mom ran for mayor, and they found out that she was a part of this.
00:30:35.000And a high-state official who's a part of this trafficking scheme.
00:31:24.000I don't know the details, obviously, of that particular investigation, but this also inspired you to start getting involved with Turning Point.
00:31:54.000But basically, there was fraud and he stopped the election on MLK Day because they were refusing to file paperwork because they had, quote unquote, lost it, even though it was filed.
00:32:04.000So he had a halt for the mayoral election.
00:32:07.000When they come after you and your family, does that embolden you or does that scare you off?
00:32:13.000It makes me more confident because it makes me want to hit back even harder.
00:32:17.000That's exactly what I hear every time I hear one of these stories.
00:33:38.000A great example was actually for Pride.
00:33:40.000And my mom was an alderman at large before she ran for mayor.
00:33:44.000And basically what happened is Pride, there was a tiebreaker in the mayor.
00:33:47.000It's a weak mayor system, so the mayor has to make the tiebreaker.
00:33:50.000So he did the tiebreaker on Pride, and Christians ended up getting thrown in jail and arrested over having a shirt that just said Jesus on it.
00:33:59.000They were getting arrested for wanting to pray for people on a public property.
00:34:03.000It's called Harlandsdale that's funded by taxpayer money.
00:34:07.000And on top of that, it's a public event.
00:34:09.000Well, folks, I don't know what to tell you, but when we say the institutions have been invaded, they really have.
00:34:15.000When our country has been, the institutions have really been taken over.
