Tulsi Gabbard Says Biden Admin ‘Promoting Child Abuse’ by Pushing ‘Gender-Affirming Care’

Tulsi Gabbard, a former Democratic presidential candidate who also served as a Hawaiian congresswoman, criticized the Biden/Harris administration for “promoting child abuse,” accusing the White House of harm by releasing statements that endorse the use of puberty blockers and irreversible surgeries for children.

Pseudotumor cerebri, or idiopathic intracranial hypertension, is when the fluid around the brain and spinal cord builds up in the skull for no obvious reason, causing high pressure that affects the brain and the nerve in the back of the eye, the optic nerve.

Gabbard’s remark came several weeks after Rachel Levine, the Biden
