TPM EXCLUSIVE: The University of Michigan hospital system confirms it's discontinuing gender-affirming care for minors after receiving a subpoena from the Trump administration: talkingpointsmemo.com/news/univers...

So all it takes for doctors and hospitals to abandon their Hippocratic oath, ethics, and promise to "do no harm" is a shit subpoena from this administration. They don't even fight it, don't even try to take it to court, just pure capitulation. Coward doctors who don't deserve the title or license.

God damn it! We can't submit in advance! And for a subpoena? If you hand a bully your lunch money, he's still going to keep threatening you.

I'd feel more sympathy for the position they're in and the hard choices they have to make... if it weren't for the fact that they KNOW caving won't save them.

And, Michigan bends the knee and kisses the ring. No more...GO BLUE! No more Hail to the Victors. The Victors surrendered their morals and reputation.

This is devastating… there won’t be any resources left for trans kids. People will have to start moving out of country and those that can’t will have kids with severe mental health problems. Suicide rates will increase. Fuck Trump.!!!

Do they think giving up their lunch money to the bully on Monday means the bully won’t demand their lunch money and a couple of extra bucks for a soda on Tuesday? It’s like they never heard of Neville Chamberlain….

And we have Dems in office that are glad Trump's doing this.

Can they clarify why they're including 18 year olds in their classification of "minors?" Last I checked, 18 is an adult.

Outrageous. This is the banning of medicine. No nation can hold together when medicine is banned. Big cracks started opening with Dobbs.

Foolish for minors to chose a career, or spouse, at 12, not mature enough. Once medical treatments start its life altering & mostly permanent, U got to get it right. Care up to 18 - good . Medical treatment after 18 - fine. But Dem policy affirming medical treatments for minors is a losing position

“The University of Michigan, including Michigan Medicine, is one of multiple institutions across the country that has received a federal subpoena as part of a criminal and civil investigation into gender-affirming care for minors,” the statement reads.

“In light of that investigation, and given escalating external threats and risks, we will no longer provide gender affirming hormonal therapies and puberty blocker medications for minors.”

Per an internal university memo obtained by TPM, University of Michigan Health first received a subpoena on July 14 that indicated the DOJ was pursuing a civil and criminal investigation.

The targeting of the University of Michigan health system appears to be part of a broader salvo from the Trump administration, as it takes further steps to threaten hospitals into backing away from providing gender-affirming care.

Is there no one who will stand up to this man? As far as I know Congress did not pass a law that makes gender affirming care illegal. Trump has no jurisdiction.

Viagra is gender affirming care. Hair implants and breast implants are gender affirming care. Hormone replacement for post menopausal women is gender affirming care. F**ing hypocrites.
