🧵The Biden-Harris Administration ‘War On Families’

The Biden-Harris embrace of transgender ideology puts parents who don’t affirm their child’s gender confusion at risk of being labeled ‘abusive.’

Across the country ‘non-affirming’ parents are losing custody of their kids.

In December, @katesrichardson reported on a document I discovered on a federal government website.

A federally funded “home visiting” program advised service providers to watch for signs of abuse against “gender-diverse children” like not letting a young child cross-dress.

The document was guidance for the Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting (MIECHV) Program which is intended to combat abuse and neglect while promoting “positive parenting” and school readiness among “pregnant people and families.”

The guidance offered to government workers who visit homes categorizes steering a child away from “gender expression” that does not correspond with his or her biological sex as abuse.

Under the title “Recognizing and
Reporting Abuse or Neglect” the now removed document ssays “abuse” may be

“more subtle
(e.g., denying a child the right
to play, dress, and act as they
would like; or neglecting a
child because the caretaker
perceives them as “different.”

“It is important for home
visitors to recognize and
address the abuse and neglect
that may result, either directly
or indirectly, from rejection of
a child’s gender expression.”

Wanting to better understand how the Biden-Harris administration was embedding transgender ideology into the child welfare system, the @DailyCaller News Foundation launched an 10+ month investigation.

@katesrichardson and I were shocked by what we found.

Our investigation showed the Biden-Harris administration paved the way for local child welfare systems to remove gender-confused kids from their parents, furthering the idea that not “affirming” a child’s gender confusion was neglectful and abusive.

In 2016, the Obama administration awarded a 10 million dollar grant to group of activist social workers who then developed a series of
social services interventions that trained staff and families to affirm the gender confusion of children.

Under the grant, a group from Ohio pioneered a program that strong-arms parents into affirming whatever confused beliefs children express about their gender. Parents who decline risk losing a voice in their child’s life.

We discovered a U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) webinar from last fall where an activist stated “Transphobia is child abuse” and cast a vision for completely transforming child protective systems nationwide.

The activists argued that “non-affirmation” must be treated as abuse.

“If they were denying them food or denying them access to school or denying other things, there would be headlines.”

“There would be prosecution.”

We showed how these interventions and ideas being embraced by the Biden-Harris caused a Christian family in Maryland to lose their 16-year-old autistic son when they refused to affirm his gender confusion.

Under the research grant, An Ohio child welfare agency that was directly working with the Biden- Harris administration created a “confidential spreadsheet” tracking the sexual orientation and transgender identity of children as young as 5.

The database tracked the sexual orientation, transgender identity and pronouns of children that interacted with the child welfare system in Cuyahoga County, Ohio. Nearly half the children in the database were listed as living outside of the foster care system in their “own home.”

The Biden-Harris push for transgenderism extended to the juvenile justice system.

In 2023, the Department of Justice (DOJ) issued a $1 million grant to integrate gender ideology into juvenile justice and child welfare systems nationwide.

This transformation of the child welfare system has happened quietly, not through the power of law but through the power of bureaucracy.

The appointees of the next presidential administration will likely determine if the trans agenda is further elevated or forced to retreat.

In researching these stories, I gained a deeper appreciation for how the transgender agenda threatens to overrule religious freedom, parental rights, and makes vulnerable children more vulnerable.
