Oklahoma Governor Kevin Stitt Signs Bill Blocking Hospitals From Receiving Funds If They Perform Gender Transitions on Minors

The GOP can behave as a functional, responsive party -- if we make it.


Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt (R) on Tuesday signed a bill that blocks University of Oklahoma hospitals from receiving federal American Rescue Plan Act funds if its children's hospital continues to offer gender-affirming care.

Oklahoma Children's hospital in a statement said it was no longer prescribing hormone therapies or performing gender-affirming surgical procedures on patients younger than 18.

Stitt in a statement on Tuesday called on the state legislature to pass a bill that bans doctors in the state from providing gender-affirming care to minors when it reconvenes in February.

Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt (R) on Tuesday signed into law a measure blocking one of the state's largest hospital systems from receiving federal funds if it continues to offer gender-affirming care to transgender youth.

The bill signed Tuesday was passed last week by state lawmakers during a special session to appropriate the state's $1.87 billion in federal American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds.

Under the proposal by two Republican state House members and two Republican senators, University of Oklahoma (OU) hospitals will only be permitted to receive $108 million in ARPA funds -- including nearly $40 million earmarked for a pediatric mental health facility -- if Oklahoma Children's Hospital ceases to provide gender-affirming care.

On Tuesday, Stitt said signing the bill was only the first step toward shielding children from "permanent gender transition surgeries and therapies."

"It is wildly inappropriate for taxpayer dollars to be used for condoning, promoting, or performing these types of controversial procedures on healthy children," Stitt said in a statement, and called on the legislature to enact a total ban on gender-affirming care for minors when it reconvenes in February. Some state legislators had urged Stitt to call another special session for the purpose of passing legislation to outlaw such care for youth.

...

Stitt in March signed into law another bill that bars transgender women and girls from competing on female sports teams, and a measure that has prevented transgender students in Oklahoma from using school facilities like restrooms and locker rooms consistent with their gender identity has been in place since May.

There are many "Republicans" who are still "uncomfortable" fighting back against the Culture War the Democrats have fought and won -- almost unopposed -- over the past 20 years.

They feel it's "icky" and "judgmental" and "Not Quite Our Class, Dear."

They feel this is something the Uneducated Deplorables do -- not something that the Educated Better Sort of Republicans do.

The status they crave is conferred only by liberals and liberal-dominated institutions and so they conform themselves and their politics into a shape acceptable to the status-conferring liberal hegemony.

David French embodies this line of class-based, status-seeking line of "thinking."

And what's worse, they're not even content to remain non-combatants in the culture war -- no, they actively side with the left, and beat up people on the right for attempting to defend themselves. They frag their "own side" to prove their true loyalty, which is to the left.


These are not Republicans; these are Democrats who like low taxes and want to keep minorities out of their suburbs. They must be purged from holding any positions in the party. They are still allowed to vote for us, which they will do, about one third of the time. Because they're Democrats with slight Republican leanings.

We can no longer allow them a place in any position of political leadership or influence -- including in magazines of ideological persuasion. We are not fighting to reduce corporate tax rates. That is not the sum of our aspirations.

Tyranny wins again. The last place anyone should want the government involved is in personal healthcare decisions. The government is not your doctor, and should not be binding your doctor to make recommendations - or fail to make recommendations - that your doctor knows to be in the best interests of your health.

This is chilling to an extreme degree, and marks an escalation. Thanks to the poor decision on Roe v Wade, your doctor cannot prescribe an abortion even if it is essential to your physical or mental health. Transgender children are now second-class citizens in Oklahoma, and will be denied the affirming healthcare they need.

What will they outlaw next? Contraception? Cancer treatment?

It's not just cruel to children, though it is especially that. It's cruel to everyone.

But as the Left constantly has to mutilitate language as well as people (I see a pattern there) that term was too precise so they had to mutilate the term gender and now we are in a losing battle so far to prevent kids getting their dicks lopped off or breasts chopped off.

114 Like most cities, there is a dominant Reddit in Portland, which has more than a quarter of a million people subscribed.

The moderators of the Portland Reddit are pro-Antifa, hate the cops, and ban anyone who says that Portland's Soros DA is less than competent in performing his duties. Naturally, with the election coming up, only favorable comments are allowed for hard-left candidates, and unfavorable comments for everyone else. (They are in hysterics that a Republican might actually get elected governor.)

Over the last few years, the main Portland Reddit has banned thousands of people, so a small, but rapidly growing alternative Portland Reddit has formed, that allows actual political conversation, both left-wing and right-wing.

Well, today the Reddit administration swooped in, banned almost everyone moderating the alternative Reddit, obviously as a precursor to banning the alternative Reddit itself.

You see, the Reddit administrators are also pro-Antifa and hate the cops, and with an election coming up in Oregon that might actually elect some Republicans, it's time to enforce ideological conformity.

When I moved to Oklahoma six years ago I still had my Iowa CC permit, which Oklahoma recognized. It expired two years later. I wasn't wild about having to go through the whole process again but was making plans when Kevin Stitt saved me. Hello, Constitutional carry.

Four years ago Stitt signed a bill making medical marijuana legal (and shocking most Oklahomans who never expected that from a Republican). This has made a huge difference in the level of opiod addiction.

On August 25 Stitt signed into law a measure that prohibits abortion for any reason other than to save the life of the mother.

157 In Washington State, Patty Murray is running an ad featuring a slightly chubby blonde-ish girl (looks to be a teen) with a ring in her nose, who tells us, through her tears, how frightened she was because she could not get an abortion in her state of Texas. She had to come all the way to Seattle to kill the fetus.
Everyone I know who has seen this ad is laughing their asses off at it.

Posted by: Elric Blade at October 06, 2022 01:30 PM (iFTx/)

I can answer this one: the Oklahoma legislature doesn't meet until February and making the practice illegal would be a legislative act. However, OU Children's hospital is part of the State Board of Regents; effectively part of state government. Stitt can't make it illegal without legislation, but he can make executive orders on the use of state funds. Rest assured, come February when the legislature meets, it will be made illegal.

166 This should be a no-brainer, which even the Establishment GOP could grasp, as a political issue let alone a proper and necessary policy. But, as you write, naaah, gotta keep the Left (Far Left, in this case) happy enough to allow a controlled opposition party to make guest appearances.

The GOPe basically is a bunch of Mondale voters who also believe in:

1. Open borders;
2. Offshoring all manufacturing; and
3. Endless wars.

In other words, the GOPe is Bill Clinton near the end of his second term, basically indistinguishable.

172 The government is not your doctor, and should not be binding your doctor to make recommendations - or fail to make recommendations - that your doctor knows to be in the best interests of your health.

This is chilling to an extreme degree, and marks an escalation. Thanks to the poor decision on Roe v Wade, your doctor cannot prescribe an abortion even if it is essential to your physical or mental health. Transgender children are now second-class citizens in Oklahoma, and will be denied the affirming healthcare they need.

What will they outlaw next? Contraception? Cancer treatment?

I saw that, and was curious when they announced it they didn't mention Indiana - which also passed a very strict abortion bill (currently tied up in state court injunctions, but will be in place soon enough). And then I remembered - Indiana does not allow state medicaid or state regulated health plans to even pay for the procedure. So if you go out of state, you have to pay it all.

Democrats getting crazier affects primarily one part of the country: the cities. The cities are going to get worse. I'd be shocked if New York didn't burn in 2023, and it's just going to further degrade New York City's influence outside of its own borders.

Not exactly, but it would require a heavy lift.

Well, if we have elections in 5 weeks (no word of canceled elections yet, and I was assured that they'd be canceled by June), then some lever of political power still functions, especially if the 2021 VA election gets replicated across the country.

If that red wave happens, the real change will be at the state level, where it will have the most effect. Imagine a GOP governor in PA suddenly signing election integrity measures with teeth.

A memo describing the creation of these trucks is often used as a case study in technical communication...as an example of just how awful the Nazis really were...It's grim memo when you fully understand the implications of what's being described.

Nope. It's frigging conceding to madness.

Open the prison gates for dangerous individuals who've "served enough time"; unionize dope sales; have drug treatment clinics (both in- and outpatient in every community center; turn 'as many as possible' policing jobs over to civilians (Civilian Police Programs); take all of your grievances to your block captain, and more.

300 Democrats are, in actuality, a rump, urban party that only exerts control over national elections because of its control of those urban centers.

Democrats getting crazier affects primarily one part of the country: the cities. The cities are going to get worse. I'd be shocked if New York didn't burn in 2023, and it's just going to further degrade New York City's influence outside of its own borders.

319 This is something I've commented on for a long time. back in the early days of NRO's "the Corner", I noted that the NRO writers always went out of their way to compliment their counterparts at outfits like the Nation when citing to something the Nation writer wrote. And they'd say things like "my friend so and so at the Nation is an intelligent, honest guy, but his take on 'x' is wrong b/c". Or "so and so is a reasonable guy . . ."

Meanwhile, the leftist writers would essentially call the writers at The National Review fascist, racist, stupid, etc. and never return the favor. Even back then, the "conservative" writers were pathetic in their attempts to cuddle up to leftist writers and try and gain approval from the leftist writers.

Been saying this for awhile - the big T issue is actually driving women and gays (lesbians) out of the party. While they probably aren't signing up for the GOP, they aren't pulling the straight D ticket anymore. If a party is perpetually looking for the next victim, they eventually run out, and pit victim groups against one another. Its why hispanics are running to the GOP. Its starting to do the same with feminists. They will be smaller - and more crazy. All the better to clean them out of government as soon as possible.

The GOP will not change. That is a pipe dream.

Most people here want the red wave, and I don't, and here's why: Let's assume that best case scenario (red wave in November, then GOP retention of both houses, plus President Trump or DeSantis or whoever in '24).

In the next term, we get a few bones thrown to the donor class, no advancement of anything approaching a right-wing agenda, and no rollback whatsoever of the Dem agenda.

Then we get 4 more years of pure madness and increasing totalitarianism while both parties stand shoulder to shoulder, once again, sidelining President Whoever.

Now, consider mine... this won't happen, but let's pretend for a moment it did. A critical mass of GOP voters wake up to the shell game and stay the fuck home - GOP loses in November, and again in '24.

That would finish the ridiculous Republican Party as a viable political force. They'd go the way of the Whigs, never to rise again. The Dems lose their first and strongest line of defense forever, and the path is cleared for an actual opposition movement with energy and vision to take to the streets.

Respectfully disagree with what you think would happen - I believe it would be like the Czechs who voted for Communism in 1946 in a relatively open and fair election. No one in that country saw another actual contested election for almost 45 years. That's what would happen here; next actual election wouldn't take place until 2070 or 2080, if ever.

Respectfully disagree with what you think would happen - I believe it would be like the Czechs who voted for Communism in 1946 in a relatively open and fair election. No one in that country saw another actual contested election for almost 45 years. That's what would happen here; next actual election wouldn't take place until 2070 or 2080, if ever.

I would argue that we've *already had* a one-party state for at least thirty years. Removing the illusion of representative government would clarify the matter for a lot of people very quickly.

I would also argue that there is no voting our way out of this. That time is past. It's movement time, not elections time. We can all argue about Candidate Bunghole (X) vs Candidate Douchenozzle (Y) again after the regime falls. But as long as people can pretend to have a republic, they will, no matter how ridiculous it becomes, because it is comfortable.

I think there's still one last chance to avoid the worst of it.

Literally every single day we are seeing evidence that the Republican party not only can change but is changing at the most basic level. The number of Latinos moving from the Democrats to the Republicans is a seismic event not a trickle. Large number of black voters as well. And now the Republican party is the party of the working man and woman and not the rich, that would be the Democrats.

"Then, I joined the U.S. Army Reserves, put on the uniform, and (eventually) rolled out on my first mission “outside the wire” in Diyala Province, Iraq . . . where I couldn’t read Drudge or Politico and had to focus on a single objective -- to defeat the enemy that was trying to kill my brothers in arms and kill me."

In his case, “outside the wire” meant that the officer's latrine was full and he had to leave his office and go the common latrine.

The biggest source of frustration is that while the State Senate is dominated by strong conservatives, the GOP-e/Chamaber of Commerce caucus still control the Texas House. And that makes getting good legislation passed very difficult.

and it always bears repeating that the Texas Governor's office, by design, is one of the weakest such offices in any of the states. Abbott has actually been able to do some things to make it a little bit stronger than it was.

I was an army JAG. Any claim French makes that he was in any kind of combat is total b.s. I can see maybe he was in a convoy moving from one base to another and the convoy got attacked. But he would never have been sent on a "mission" outside the wire.

I really can't believe French can get any more dishonest.

599 Federal agents investigating Hunter Biden believe they have gathered enough evidence to charge the first son with tax crimes as well as a false statement related to a gun purchase, according to a new report.

The final decision on whether to charge the 52-year-old will be made by Delaware US attorney David Weiss, who was appointed to his current post by former President Donald Trump.

The Washington Post, citing people familiar with the investigation, reported that agents had determined months ago that they had assembled a viable criminal case against Hunter Biden. The newspaper reported that the investigation, which started by focusing on Hunter’s overseas business dealings, has shifted to whether he reported all his income from overseas transactions — as well as whether he lied about his history of substance abuse on a firearm purchase form in 2018.

Hunter Biden himself announced in December of 2020 that his “tax affairs” were being investigated by federal authorities in Delaware, and said he was “confident that a professional and objective review of these matters will demonstrate that I handled my affairs legally and appropriately.”

So. . . they'll charge him then settle or some other trick so that the Bidens can claim he was fully investigated, and all has been dealt with. Just like Hillary claiming it was proven she did nothing wrong because the FBI advised against proceeding with prosecution.

No way this is a legit, non-partisan action by the feds.

in his interview, he said they were very open to talking to him the first time, then promised they would interview him in more detail later - then stonewalled him for 2 years. The Grand Jury should have talked to him and hasn't.
