00:00:30.000 Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show.
00:00:32.000 Live on Sirius XM Channel 111 every weekday at New East.
00:00:42.000 Hey everyone, I'm Megyn Kelly.
00:00:43.000 Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show.
00:00:45.000 Today, I'm joined by a mother who was in the fight of her life
00:00:48.000 to save her daughter from radical transgender ideology 0.98
00:00:52.000 after a California middle school introduced it into the curriculum.
00:00:56.000 Luckily, she was one of the ones able to successfully turn things around for her daughter.
00:01:02.000 To save her daughter from this cult.
00:01:05.000 And she's now advocating for other children and parents who fall victim to this ideology.
00:01:10.000 You must hear her story.
00:01:12.000 Joining me now, Erin Friday, California attorney and co-lead of Our Duty USA, a nonpartisan advocacy group.
00:01:20.000 Erin, I'm so glad to have you here.
00:01:24.000 Thank you so much for being on the show.
00:01:26.000 Thank you so much for inviting me.
00:01:28.000 I'm so sorry about what was done to your daughter.
00:01:31.000 I was increasingly outraged as I read her story.
00:01:35.000 And not least because I feel like our old New York City school was trying to send kids down this same path.
00:01:42.000 I know they still are.
00:01:44.000 I just saw a parent from that school the other day.
00:01:47.000 And I just talked to a mom yesterday who was telling me about her friend whose daughter was sucked into this ideology,
00:01:55.000 had previously shown no gender confusion and has now socially transitioned to being a boy.
00:02:01.000 And the mother's in a full panic. 0.99
00:02:03.000 And the mother sitting there saying, but I got her therapy. 0.89
00:02:05.000 I got her therapy.
00:02:06.000 Not knowing.
00:02:07.000 No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:02:09.000 That's not what you want to do unless it's a very well chosen therapist.
00:02:12.000 They're going to shove her down the road. 1.00
00:02:14.000 So let's can we start with your personal story and then we'll talk about what's happening in California.
00:02:19.000 Sure.
00:02:21.000 So my story is actually pretty typical, as you just expressed.
00:02:26.000 You know, our schools are now teaching these kids that there is such a thing called gender identity. 0.94
00:02:33.000 And they're going in lower and lower classes, even at the TK.
00:02:38.000 So that's pre-kindergarten.
00:02:40.000 They're reading stories to children that they could be born in the wrong body.
00:02:44.000 And they're getting that dose all through their academic careers, even in private schools, as you know.
00:02:51.000 And when that child is then going through, you know, puberty, which is distressful, especially for girls like my daughter, they suddenly decide that they want to, you know, jump ship.
00:03:05.000 They no longer want to be a girl because it's uncomfortable getting hips, getting breasts, getting their period. 1.00
00:03:12.000 And they think that boys have it easier.
00:03:15.000 And so they think that they can just wave this magic wand and become a boy because that's what their teachers have been telling them.
00:03:24.000 So that happened to my daughter.
00:03:26.000 She was distressed, lonely.
00:03:28.000 It was COVID, all alone, living in this virtual, you know, reality, and then getting groomed online.
00:03:36.000 So she got a good dose at school.
00:03:38.000 And then the groomers come out as soon as she put on her Instagram account, MTF, or sorry, FTM, female to male.
00:03:48.000 This is a calling card for pedophiles, for older groomers to find her and help her disassociate with her body more. 1.00
00:03:58.000 And once it's concretized, then the child comes out to the parents, you know, they have a script.
00:04:07.000 It's well, you know, versed.
00:04:10.000 And then there's no, there's no help in the medical community whatsoever.
00:04:16.000 Every doctor I took my daughter to told me to affirm her.
00:04:19.000 Every psychiatrist, psychologist told me to accept that I had a new son and to celebrate it and to forget those 13 years that I had raising her as a girl with, you know, really girly tendencies.
00:04:36.000 That that all was a charade and that she was just waiting to come out as the boy that she is.
00:04:43.000 So parents, you know, we walk this alone.
00:04:46.000 It is a lonely, difficult journey because everyone is against the parent, from the teachers to the doctors, to even sometimes your own family members and your, your friends.
00:04:59.000 And it's a lonely, difficult task to swim upstream and pull your child out of what I call the gender cult, because that's what it is. 1.00
00:05:09.000 Yes.
00:05:10.000 Oh, so disturbing.
00:05:12.000 So was the school in your case working against you?
00:05:16.000 Oh, absolutely.
00:05:17.000 So the school had changed her name and pronouns behind my back.
00:05:22.000 This was a school that had never set eyes on my daughter because it was COVID and it was freshman year of high school.
00:05:29.000 So they knew nothing about her.
00:05:31.000 They changed her name, pronouns.
00:05:33.000 And when I called the school to read them the riot act, not really knowing what I was getting myself into, because, you know, I was a, I was a good little liberal.
00:05:43.000 I read the New York Times and never heard anything about this gender ideology that was underfoot. 1.00
00:05:50.000 But I called the school and I, you know, laid into them.
00:05:55.000 And they told me that the school needed to be a safe space for my daughter.
00:06:01.000 Now, my daughter is going to school down the hall for me.
00:06:04.000 So by extension, I was unsafe.
00:06:06.000 And the school made clear that I was unsafe because they called Child Protective Services and the police that then showed up at my house.
00:06:18.000 Because you wouldn't affirm.
00:06:21.000 Well, they did it under the guise of we think she may be suicidal, but it was definitely a signal of, listen, parent, we're in charge here.
00:06:31.000 And if we want to call your daughter a male name and male pronouns, that's what we're going to do. 0.95
00:06:37.000 Is there any thought?
00:06:39.000 I mean, when you because I was talking to this other mom yesterday, it wasn't her child, but a friend of hers is just going through this.
00:06:46.000 And I said, you know, please tell me that she hasn't started the puberty blockers into cross sex hormones.
00:06:51.000 She said no, but she's socially transitioned the daughter.
00:06:55.000 And I was like, oh, you know, that's very hard to pull back from, too, which a lot of people don't know how dangerous and how big a step social transition is.
00:07:06.000 I'm just guessing in California, absolutely nobody flagged any of that for you.
00:07:12.000 No, of course.
00:07:16.000 Of course not.
00:07:17.000 I was told the opposite.
00:07:18.000 I was told that my daughter would commit suicide if I did not socially transition her.
00:07:23.000 I mean, if I had a dollar for every time I was told that I would be a millionaire.
00:07:28.000 This is how they hold the parents hostage.
00:07:31.000 And if you are a terrified parent, which most are, you listen to the doctors, because at some point we trusted the medical community.
00:07:40.000 We can no longer do that.
00:07:43.000 But yeah, social transition is so dangerous.
00:07:47.000 I tell parents who come to me and I work with thousands, do not capitulate.
00:07:53.000 Do not call your child by another name and pronouns.
00:07:58.000 If anything, use no name or use a pet name you used as a child.
00:08:05.000 But the parents have to be the off ramp for the child to come back to biological reality.
00:08:11.000 And if the parents buy in, even if they're doing it just to go along, to get along, it is a huge mistake and it gets concretized even more.
00:08:21.000 And as soon as that child turns 18, they are going to be off to Planned Parenthood and getting those syringes of testosterone or estrogen, no questions asked.
00:08:32.000 And they will be lining up to get those irreversible surgeries.
00:08:36.000 I can guarantee it.
00:08:38.000 In California, they can do it even younger, can't they?
00:08:41.000 I'm pretty sure you can do it during the school day during California without telling your parents.
00:08:46.000 Well, not really.
00:08:48.000 Still in California, to get any type of medical intervention, such as puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones or surgeries, you need parental consent.
00:08:59.000 But here's the opening, here's the really frightening part of this.
00:09:03.000 We have a law that allows 12-year-olds to leave their family home for any reason and go into a residential facility.
00:09:11.000 And if that child goes into that residential facility and then becomes a dependent of the state, at the age of 12, that child can then dictate their own medical treatments.
00:09:24.000 And so this is what California is doing.
00:09:27.000 It's pushing forth all these bills to make children be autonomous little adults and be able to leave their family home if their families are non-affirming.
00:09:38.000 And this is coming to every state in the nation.
00:09:41.000 We're going to say goodbye to the SiriusXM audience in a minute and take this over to podcasts and YouTube.
00:09:46.000 But before, I want the Sirius audience to hear what help you need before we sign off.
00:09:51.000 So just bottom line it for us before we sign off.
00:09:56.000 What help, I'm sorry, can you repeat that?
00:09:58.000 I mean, because you want support with a ballot initiative.
00:10:03.000 And it's, as I understand, protectkidsca.com.
00:10:08.000 And I'll just give you the last minute to explain to the radio audience what that is, what that will help with.
00:10:13.000 Yes.
00:10:14.000 So this is a California ballot initiative at protectkidsca.com.
00:10:19.000 Anyone in the state of California can go to the website, download the petition, sign it, and send it in by May 15th.
00:10:27.000 What it will do is it will stop all sex changes, so-called sex changes on children under the age of 18.
00:10:34.000 So no child can get puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, or surgeries.
00:10:38.000 It will get all the male bodies out of our girls' sports, bathrooms, changing rooms in the state of California, both for minors and for collegiate athletes. 1.00
00:10:50.000 It's a no-brainer, okay?
00:10:52.000 It's protectkidsca.com.
00:10:55.000 All right, Erin stays with us. 0.99
00:10:58.000 We're going to continue.

00:12:02.000 If we can just go back to your daughter's story, this piece of it reminds me so much of what I experienced at my daughter's all-girls school in New York City before we pulled our kids and moved to Connecticut.
00:12:17.000 My daughter was young in grade school, maybe third grade, but there was a contagion happening in the 10th grade.
00:12:26.000 And it was out of maybe a class of 60 girls, there was something like 10 or 11 girls who had suddenly said they're trans, that they're actually boys at an all-girls school.
00:12:36.000 Never before anything like this at this school or any of the other private schools in New York.
00:12:41.000 And as you know, the gender confusion was always typically a male issue, almost never a female issue.
00:12:48.000 And I spoke with another mom at the school, a very committed lefty, saying it's a social contagion.
00:12:55.000 She was offended and told me I was wrong.
00:12:59.000 There's no such thing.
00:13:00.000 This was a legitimate thing.
00:13:01.000 And, you know, maybe I was playing fast and loose with the numbers.
00:13:04.000 Well, needless to say, it was all true. 0.96
00:13:06.000 I was right about my numbers.
00:13:07.000 It was a social contagion.
00:13:09.000 And more and more now, even liberals are starting to see this because they love their kids just as much as conservatives do.
00:13:16.000 And they've been sold a false bill of goods about what empathy looks like and what's necessary to, quote, help your child.
00:13:25.000 Well, you, too, saw something happen in your daughter's Girl Scout troop.
00:13:32.000 That's right.
00:13:33.000 About half of the Girl Scout troop came out as trans or something on the LGBTQ spectrum.
00:13:41.000 And that was very typical because these kids are given this whole list of different identities that they can jump into.
00:13:50.000 And it's intriguing, especially when they're learning that being a white middle class girl with two parents that are together and own a car are now oppressors.
00:14:04.000 The way that they can jump in and become a victim is to glum on to some LGBTQ plus identity. 1.00
00:14:13.000 And that then gives them some status.
00:14:16.000 So it's definitely a social contagion.
00:14:19.000 We know that social contagions traditionally start with adolescent girls, bulimia, anorexia, cutting, the feigning.
00:14:30.000 We know this.
00:14:31.000 And this is no different, except that we're medicalizing these children and we're concretizing their beliefs.
00:14:39.000 Yeah.
00:14:40.000 And causing what Abigail Schreier accurately termed irreversible damage to them, whether it's losing our sex organs or creating infertility in a perfectly healthy child or the inability to have a normal sex life.
00:14:54.000 I mean, all of this to minors who can't possibly consent to it.
00:14:59.000 One of the many reasons you're now fighting back in the bluest of blue states.
00:15:04.000 You mentioned groomers on the Internet.
00:15:07.000 I think that's of interest to our audience.
00:15:09.000 So how how does that happen, especially because you seem like an attentive, loving, involved parent?
00:15:16.000 So I think attentive, loving, involved parents think this can't happen to them.
00:15:21.000 Well, that's the that's the tragedy.
00:15:24.000 And that's where I fall on the sword.
00:15:26.000 I I thought I was an on top of a parent.
00:15:29.000 I looked at my daughter's phone.
00:15:31.000 I monitored her social media.
00:15:33.000 But these kids are smarter than us.
00:15:35.000 And she created all these fake accounts that I watched.
00:15:39.000 And then she had these other accounts that I was unaware of through Discord, even Pinterest.
00:15:45.000 These kids can DM each other.
00:15:47.000 They get in touch with each other on Google Live Docs.
00:15:52.000 And these older kids like there's 16, 17 year old girls who say that they're non-binary or trans are teaching the 12 and 13 year old girls.
00:16:04.000 And so there's this grooming going on among these young kids themselves.
00:16:11.000 And then there are the adults that hop in.
00:16:14.000 So I was able to look at things on my my daughter's Instagram that would, you know, curl your your toes.
00:16:22.000 It was so foul, older men telling her to send naked pictures of her because it's not her body after all.
00:16:32.000 She's going to have a male body in the future. 1.00
00:16:35.000 So this is the predatory aspect of the trans movement. 1.00
00:16:40.000 And it happens to the boys, too.
00:16:42.000 I don't want to leave out the boys because, you know, the social contagion is now hitting them also.
00:16:48.000 But these young boys are being tricked through really foul pornography, too. 0.99
00:16:55.000 It's called sissy porn. 0.97
00:16:57.000 And these young boys are being exposed to it and they can't distinguish reality versus acting or, you know, predatory behavior. 0.98
00:17:08.000 And so these boys are getting confused and thinking that they are women now, too, because of the porn that's being fed to them.
00:17:16.000 I mean, the porn that my daughter was exposed to is just draw jaw dropping. 0.99
00:17:22.000 And as I looked through it, I was inundated with more disgusting material because there's an algorithm that pushes this deeper and further.
00:17:33.000 And so these young kids are being exposed to really just fetish, horrible material that confuses them and also makes these girls, as they watch what happens to women in these porn sites, they don't want to be that woman.
00:17:55.000 They don't want to be subjected to women. 1.00
00:17:56.000 They don't want to be subjected to it.
00:17:58.000 So you see this non-binary identity or asexual identity emerging.
00:18:03.000 You know, it reminds me of a story.
00:18:06.000 We were going to talk about it last week.
00:18:08.000 We didn't get to it.
00:18:09.000 Of the rise in choking of young women as sex partners and how, I mean, the numbers were stunning. 0.92
00:18:19.000 I don't have them in front of me, but it was like a majority, a high majority of young girls have seen this, have been asked to do it, say that they've asked their partners to do it to them.
00:18:33.000 It's choking where they go online and they look at videos on how to get choked, where to have your partner choke you exactly so you can, you know, live.
00:18:43.500 And I just think of these young girls who are having this gender confusion as a result of the social contagion, seeing the videos like that, like in order to please your lover, you have to let him nearly asphyxiate you.
00:18:57.500 And then thinking, no, I I'm so out.
00:19:01.500 I don't want any piece of this.
00:19:03.500 And I thought it was interesting to Aaron, how you talked about the body changes.
00:19:06.500 I hadn't really considered it, but, you know, the prepubescent girls look very much like boys in their body type. 0.82
00:19:14.500 You know, they're straight, straight down for the most part from the shoulders down.
00:19:18.500 And for them, pausing puberty and maintaining that shape may feel like just normalization.
00:19:26.500 You know, I'm I'm just going to stay normal if I pause my puberty and I take a cross sex hormone to stop these changes from happening to me.
00:19:35.500 I'm going to stay in the place I'm comfortable, which is like the place I've been up to age 11, which makes it especially dangerous.
00:19:41.500 Right. I'm going to stay in this safe body and I'm not going to become the girl who has to get anally raped or choked in order to have a womanhood, which is what they're being fed via these vile 0.92
00:19:56.380 sites. Yeah, absolutely. 0.98
00:19:59.380 Absolutely. These girls want to escape womanhood because of the belief that this is what they have to subject their bodies to. 1.00
00:20:08.380 And there's also, you know, these girls develop at a younger age than their mental health that their brains can comprehend. 0.91
00:20:19.380 So they're not sexual beings, but their bodies become sexualized on the exterior.
00:20:24.380 So they have men looking at them and they don't want that. 1.00
00:20:27.380 We're also raising a bunch of kids that don't want to have distress.
00:20:32.380 So having a period every month is distressful and doctors are now giving out, you know, period suppression medicine at a child's whim because she just doesn't want to go through what it's like to be a woman. 0.96
00:20:48.380 I mean, we're normalizing all this very, you know, predacious activity where we're turning children into young sexual beings, which they shouldn't be.
00:21:04.380 We see this in every state with the books that are being exposed to our kids.
00:21:10.380 And then we're telling kids also that they don't have to grow up at the same time.
00:21:14.380 It is stats my team just forwarded.
00:21:20.380 This is from a New York Times op-ed by Peggy Orenstein, who wrote the book, Boys and Sex.
00:21:25.380 Nearly two thirds of women in her most recent campus representative survey of 5,000 students at a major Midwestern university, nearly two thirds said a partner had choked them during sex.
00:21:39.380 One third in their most recent encounter.
00:21:42.380 The rate of those women who said that they were between the ages of 12 and 17, the first time it happened, had shot up 40 percent, 40 percent from her last survey.
00:21:50.380 She said, I started to ask more.
00:21:52.380 The stories piled up.
00:21:53.380 Another sophomore confided she enjoyed being choked by her boyfriend, though it was important for a partner to be properly educated, pressing on the sides of the neck, for example, rather than the trachea.
00:22:03.380 Note, there is no safe way to strangle someone.
00:22:06.380 A male freshman said girls expected to be choked.
00:22:10.380 And even though he didn't want to do it, refusing would make him seem like a simp. 0.94
00:22:14.380 And a senior in high school was angry that her friends called her vanilla when she complained that her boyfriend had choked her.
00:22:22.380 She was vanilla because she didn't want to be choked. 0.95
00:22:25.380 This is just one example.
00:22:26.380 We're down a lane here, but just one example on what's being fed to young girls online for people who don't understand what they could possibly see that might make them say, I don't want to live life in this body or be a member of the sex to whom this happens.
00:22:46.380 I could be dead by age 19.
00:22:50.380 I know it sounds like, oh, you should have a firmer foundation than that.
00:22:54.380 But as you point out, most of these girls who will see this will have already been fed a vile diet from backdoor sites. 1.00
00:23:03.380 I mean, when you mentioned Google Live Docs and Pinterest, even I, who spend a lifetime talking about these websites, did not know you could backdoor those sites with this type of filth.
00:23:15.380 Yeah, and there's no parental blockage that you can put on these phones to protect your kids.
00:23:23.380 It just doesn't exist.
00:23:24.380 I did it.
00:23:25.380 I had anti-porn sites put on.
00:23:29.380 I did all sorts of things with my daughter's phone.
00:23:32.380 I eventually had to take the phone, the iPad, turn the internet down off to get this indoctrination from continuously flowing towards her. 0.94
00:23:44.380 I mean, these kids, kids now at the age of 10, 15% of 10 year olds have already watched hardcore porn.
00:23:53.380 10 years old.
00:23:55.380 So when we look at like this trans movement, what is it designed for? 1.00
00:23:59.380 It's designed to sexualize our children. 1.00
00:24:02.380 It's designed to sterilize our children. 0.98
00:24:05.380 I mean, think about this for a second.
00:24:07.380 You put a child on puberty blockers, a boy on puberty blockers. 1.00
00:24:12.380 His penis never grows. 1.00
00:24:13.380 His penis never grows. 1.00
00:24:14.380 Sorry to be gross here, but I'm going to be graphic. 1.00
00:24:17.380 His penis never grows. 1.00
00:24:18.380 So it becomes, it stays like a micro penis, a little boy's penis for life. 1.00
00:24:23.380 Think of the fetish with that. 1.00
00:24:25.380 These boys don't age.
00:24:28.380 They look young because of the estrogen.
00:24:31.380 This is fetish. 0.59
00:24:33.380 We saw with Michael Schellenberger's WPATH files, the fetish component of the transgender movement. 1.00
00:24:40.380 We now have human beings that are being operated on. 0.99
00:24:44.380 They continue to have their penis and then they are being given a neo vagina. 1.00
00:24:51.380 So it's somebody with a penis and a vagina. 1.00
00:24:54.380 This is what we're doing now. 1.00
00:24:57.380 It's sick.
00:24:58.380 I know that there's somebody at that WPATH, which is the organization to which states and schools look for guidance on how to handle all of these issues.
00:25:15.380 And there is someone named Laura Jacobs, who's a contributor to WPATH and the so-called standards of care.
00:25:25.380 This guy you found on fetish sites and has some weird obsessions that you found as well.
00:25:37.380 And maybe you can tell us what they are, but this is one of the people connected with this WPATH, which is supposedly the gold standard in advising those in charge.
00:25:48.380 This ban is a contributor for the adolescent section non-binary for the WPATH so-called standards of care.
00:25:56.380 You're a lawyer, Megan.
00:25:58.380 I'm a lawyer.
00:25:59.380 They're not standards of care by the legal terminology.
00:26:02.380 Going back, because I know a lot of parents are going to have this question.
00:26:05.380 You did manage to stop it with your daughter, which just seems like finding a unicorn these days.
00:26:13.380 How did you do it?
00:26:17.380 I went directly in.
00:26:20.380 I did not affirm her.
00:26:23.380 I made it very clear to her that I love her and that I would lay down my life for her, but I would not buy into this ideology.
00:26:35.380 I started to protest and I left my signs all over the house.
00:26:40.380 I left all my books all over the house.
00:26:43.380 I counted on the fact that for 13 years we had a great loving relationship and that she would respect me and that her real self was truly in there.
00:26:57.380 I took her out of the public schools.
00:27:00.380 I took away the phone.
00:27:01.380 I took away the internet.
00:27:03.380 I took her out to nature.
00:27:06.380 I gave up my life for her life.
00:27:09.380 Oh, you give me the chills as any mother would, but most just don't know what to do there. 0.89
00:27:17.380 They stop with the psychiatrist who says affirm or she's going to kill herself.
00:27:22.380 It takes a very strong and very well informed mom or dad to say, no, I'm not doing that.
00:27:32.380 That's right, but it has to be done and it can be done.
00:27:37.380 And there are there are actually thousands of parents who've gotten their children out of the gender cult.
00:27:42.380 They just don't speak about it or they're silenced. 0.98
00:27:46.380 I've been silenced by the left media, you know, non nonstop since I started speaking about four years ago because we're the best kept secret because we're we're liberals and we're Democrats and we don't believe in this gender ideology garbage. 0.82
00:28:03.380 And we don't follow the narrative and they try to silence us.
00:28:08.380 So you will not be silenced.
00:28:11.380 And that brings me to what's happening in California and the effort that you have underway.
00:28:15.380 And please, please listen to this, folks, because Aaron needs your help.
00:28:19.380 We should all be paying attention to California.
00:28:21.380 Not only did all these wacky car standards that we're now looking at that the Biden administration is enforcing on us, like no more EVs by a certain year, 2033, whatever it is, or only EVs, I should say.
00:28:33.380 Right. That's all based on California.
00:28:35.380 Like and I know you've said, Aaron, as California goes, so goes the nation.
00:28:39.380 Sadly, that's true.
00:28:41.380 So pay attention.
00:28:43.380 What exactly are you looking for help with?
00:28:46.380 What's the petition and what are you trying to stop?
00:28:50.380 So here in California, we put forth a petition called ProtectKidsCA.com.
00:28:58.380 That's the website that you can go to.
00:29:01.380 You can download the petition and sign it and send it in by May 15th.
00:29:07.380 And this will get this measure on the ballot.
00:29:10.380 Anyone in the nation can donate to the endeavor.
00:29:15.380 And I encourage them to do so, because like you said, as California goes, so goes the nation.
00:29:21.380 Title IX already happened in the state of California.
00:29:25.380 Medi-Cal is already paying for all these, you know, trans so-called sex changes. 1.00
00:29:32.380 We started it all.
00:29:34.380 We have males in our female prisons. 1.00
00:29:37.380 But back to the ballot initiative, it's going to do three major things.
00:29:41.380 It is going to get boys out of girls' sports, bathrooms and changing rooms. 0.99
00:29:47.380 It's going to define the word female and male in biological scientific terms. 0.97
00:29:54.380 I can't believe that we have to do that, but that's where we are.
00:29:59.380 The second thing that the ballot initiative will do is to stop all so-called sex changes 0.94
00:30:05.380 on minors, no puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones or surgeries on children.
00:30:13.380 The third aspect of the initiative will stop schools from lying and deceiving parents when
00:30:21.380 their children are gender questioning and also will prevent schools from socially transitioning 0.98
00:30:29.380 these kids by giving them binders, by giving them changes of clothes, by giving them trans tape 0.98
00:30:36.380 behind their parents' backs.
00:30:38.380 So it is a huge undertaking.
00:30:41.380 But just imagine the bluest of blue state stopping, you know, so-called sex changes on children.
00:30:51.380 The rest of the nation will follow.
00:30:53.380 I guarantee it.
00:30:55.380 If we don't stop what's happening in California, it doesn't matter that 23 red states stopped gender 0.80
00:31:04.380 interventions on kids because California is a trans sanctuary state.
00:31:10.380 That means any child from any state can run away to California, and we will hide them, and we 0.97
00:31:17.380 will protect them, and we will give them a new family, and we will transition them.
00:31:22.380 So a child-
00:31:23.380 And doctors too.
00:31:25.380 And that's correct.
00:31:26.380 The doctors can break their law in Tennessee, get on a plane, fly out to California, and we
00:31:33.380 will hide them.
00:31:34.380 No long arm of the law will, you know, police will not go find this lawbreaker.
00:31:41.380 They have sanctuary in our state.
00:31:45.380 And our governor, Governor Newsom, is raising millions of dollars to go advertise in those
00:31:53.380 red states to, hey, come to California.
00:31:56.380 You want to get your body parts removed? 1.00
00:31:58.380 Come to California. 0.90
00:31:59.380 We'll do it for you.
00:32:01.380 Doctors, you want to break the law? 0.84
00:32:02.380 Come to California.
00:32:04.380 So it doesn't end until we end it in California.
00:32:07.380 That's why this ballot initiative should be a national issue.
00:32:12.380 Everyone should be watching.
00:32:14.380 Everyone should be contributing.
00:32:16.380 And anyone in California should be gathering those signatures.
00:32:20.380 It can be done.
00:32:22.380 I'm a Democrat.
00:32:23.380 I get Democrats to sign this, no problem.
00:32:26.380 So you need 500,000 signatures?
00:32:30.380 546,000 signatures by May 28th, which means we need them mailed in by May 15th.
00:32:39.380 Okay.
00:32:40.380 And protectkidsca.com, that's only relevant for signing the petition if you're in California.
00:32:49.380 You're a Californian, but anybody can donate to support this fight.
00:32:54.380 And why wouldn't we?
00:32:55.380 And they too should go to protectkidsca.com.
00:32:58.380 That's correct.
00:33:00.380 Erin, oh my gosh.
00:33:02.380 I worry.
00:33:03.380 I worry.
00:33:04.380 I just feel like California is so left.
00:33:06.380 I know there's 40 million people there, but can you find 500,000 to sign this thing?
00:33:11.380 They definitely exist.
00:33:14.380 There's a lot of conservatives.
00:33:16.380 There's a lot of independents.
00:33:18.380 And there's a lot of Democrat families who are against this.
00:33:22.380 They just don't know that it's even happening.
00:33:25.380 Right.
00:33:26.380 Some of them don't even know.
00:33:27.380 Like Northern, some of the ones in Northern California, Orange County, right?
00:33:31.380 Like there's San Diego.
00:33:33.380 There are pockets that are more red leaning.
00:33:35.380 That's how we've had Republican governors out there.
00:33:37.380 You just got to get the word out.
00:33:39.380 That's correct.
00:33:40.380 And they need to start believing.
00:33:42.380 And thank you so much for having me on because the press does not report on this.
00:33:47.380 They're not reporting that 13 year old little girls in the state of California are getting their breasts removed.
00:33:55.380 They're healthy breasts. 0.92
00:33:57.380 15 year olds, little boys are getting their, you know, genitals removed. 0.77
00:34:03.380 This is happening in our state and the press does not talk about it.
00:34:09.380 You know, I'm going to ask my friend, Adam Carolla to promote this too.
00:34:15.380 I know he's with us on this and he's got a huge show and he's California based.
00:34:20.380 I know he's got a lot of California listeners and that could help as well.
00:34:24.380 But I mean, you'd look at it that way.
00:34:26.380 500,000 out of 40 million that we should be able to do.
00:34:28.380 Protect kids ca.com protect kids ca.com.
00:34:33.380 If you're a California not living in California right now, but you still, you know, your driver's license still says California.
00:34:40.380 Is that valuable still to you?
00:34:42.380 If you're registered to vote in California and, and you've moved to another state, you know, there's laws in your state on when you have to re-register in your state.
00:34:53.380 Um, so if you moved to Florida, lucky you, I, I, if you haven't changed your registration, I think there's some rules that you would have to follow.
00:35:01.380 Um, I want basically if you're still permitted to vote in California, then you can, that's right.
00:35:06.380 You can sign, you can sign for this.
00:35:08.380 So that's, that's important.
00:35:09.380 Cause that's a lot, that's a wide swath and not all of them may be in California at this particular moment.
00:35:14.380 Protect kids ca.com.
00:35:17.380 Please come back.
00:35:18.380 We'll mention it again too, on the show, just to make sure that the word keeps going out.
00:35:22.380 Very worried and also inspired by your effort and God bless your daughter too.
00:35:28.380 Yeah.
00:35:29.380 I'm lucky.
00:35:30.380 Thank you so much.
00:35:31.380 So lucky.
00:35:32.380 And thank you for the blueprint for anybody who's struggling with this.
00:35:35.380 It can be done.
00:35:36.380 As she points out, a lot of families have managed to stop it.
00:35:39.380 You don't have to go along with it just because a school or a psychiatrist with an agenda says you do.
00:35:45.380 Erin Friday, all the best.
00:35:47.380 Thank you.
00:35:52.380 Thanks for listening to the Megan Kelly show.
00:35:54.380 No BS, no agenda, and no fear.
00:36:01.380 Thanks for listening to.
00:36:02.380 We'll be right back.
00:36:06.380 What did you feel?
00:36:07.380 If, what do you feel fine?
00:36:09.380 Hi, everybody.
00:36:14.380 This would have had the same way as the knockout has been.
00:36:15.380 By the way.
00:36:16.380 That's the KNOUN project.
00:36:17.380 If everyone felt comfortable with all of them?
