- The regime is playing a dangerous game, encouraging the DOJ to “investigate and prosecute” journalists who publish “misleading information”—which could constitute almost anything. The real message: “If you stray from regime opinion, you might end up in prison.” – Christopher Rufo
As I told @IngrahamAngle tonight: "I have a message for Attorney General Merrick Garland: you can threaten us; you can mobilize the FBI against us; you can drag us out of our homes in a pre-dawn raid. But we are not going to stop reporting on radical gender surgeries on minors." pic.twitter.com/Mq1T0QHfyM

BREAKING: The American Medical Association is asking Big Tech and the Department of Justice to censor, deplatform, investigate, and prosecute journalists who question the orthodoxy of radical gender surgeries for minors, arguing that public criticism is "disinformation." pic.twitter.com/NHv32Zzdu5

- Ben Collins, Brandy Zadrozny, Taylor Lorenz, and Media Matters have spent years building an apparatus to declare entire realms of discourse “disinformation” and to punish dissenters with smear reporting and deplatforming campaigns—while their own outlets spread monumental lies. – Chris Rufo
- n 1968, the philosopher Herbert Marcuse called for the creation of a system of “intolerance against movements from the Right” in which “certain things cannot be said, certain ideas cannot be expressed, certain policies cannot be proposed.”
- The four stages of radical gender surgeries for minors: –It’s not happening. –It’s good that it’s happening. –It’s empowering when we say it’s happening, but disinformation when you say it’s happening. –The F.B.I. should put you in prison for quoting us saying it’s happening. – Chris Rufo
- I want to see every conservative news program play the videos, show the photos, reference the studies, and quote the queer theorists. Show the public exactly what they’re doing and raise the stakes with the line that “the Left wants the DOJ to prosecute us for questioning this.”
- Yale professor Jason Stanley has weighed in on the AMA letter. “If this is used to shut down journalistic critique it is wrong full stop,” he says. “I condemn all forms of authoritarianism left and right.”
- As a journalist, I’m proud that my investigative reporting has helped spark an effort for full-scale government suppression not once, but twice, in the past year. Bring it on, Merrick Garland. We will expose critical race theory and radical gender theory—and we will win. If “gender-affirming care” is so good, the activists and doctors who promote it—and profit from it—should defend their practices in the realm public opinion. In a democracy, everyone gets to weigh in on important issues, not just regime-approved apparatchiks. The morality of this situation is blindingly clear: • Threatening hospitals is wrong. • Censoring journalists is wrong. • Criminalizing political opposition is wrong. • Surgically removing a child’s genitalia is wrong. – Chris Rufo
Remember: according to the NYT, 70% of the public opposes teaching gender theory in elementary school—including approximately two-thirds of women and Latinos. These same demos will be *shocked* when they see radical gender theory's medical conclusions. pic.twitter.com/Zkor0K4PGO

News producers: I've created a guide to radical gender theory with quotes, stories, citations, and language, including evidence that schools and hospitals are creating a "school-to-gender-clinic pipeline." Feel free to take what you need. https://t.co/rDdLjKumo5
