A recent study that claimed to show the benefits of “transgender” medical procedures on minors was secretly funded by a company that specializes in producing puberty-blocking drugs that are used in such procedures.
As reported by Breitbart , the study, “Sex Assigned at Birth Ratio Among Transgender and Gender Diverse Adolescents in the United States,” was written by researchers Brett Dolotina, Alex Keuroghlian, Dana King, and Jack Turban. Featured prominently by several mainstream media outlets, the study defended such practices as hormone injections, puberty-blockers, or amputating sexual organs.
“The sex assigned at birth ratio of TGD adolescents in the United States does not appear to favor AFAB adolescents and should not be used to argue against the provision of gender-affirming medical care for TGD adolescents,” the study claims, attempting to debunk the “social contagion” theory that transgenderism is more of a social trend rather than an actual medical condition.
However, an investigation by the Daily Caller soon revealed that one of the authors, Turban, had previously been paid at least $15,000 by Arbor Pharmaceuticals; Arbor manufactures the drug Triptudor, which is used for puberty-blocking treatment in developing adolescents.
Turban is set to start a new career as an assistant professor of child psychiatry at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF), which also has ties to the puberty-blocking industry. A previous report by Breitbart revealed that Stephen Rosenthal, director of UCSF’s Benioff Children’s Hospital Child and Adolescent Gender Center, had been paid nearly $17,000 from both AbbVie and Endo Pharmaceuticals, who also produce puberty-blocking drugs.
Another author of the new study, Brett Dolotina, has had known affiliations with far-left and LGBTQ advocacy groups for years; he previously volunteered for GLBTQ Legal Advocates and Defenders, which also promotes sex-change surgeries and other harmful medical procedures on children.
Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our Giving Fuel. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
