Biden’s Department of Justice (DOJ) has unsealed its indictment against Dr. Eithan Haim, who faces up to 10 years in prison for releasing evidence of ongoing ‘sex changes’ for children as young as 11 at Texas Children’s Hospital in Houston.

(LifeSiteNews) — The Biden Department of Justice (DOJ) has unsealed its indictment against a small-town surgeon who revealed that ghastly transgender surgeries were being secretly committed on minors at Texas Children’s Hospital (TCH) after the hospital had purportedly discontinued its transgender program.

Dr. Eithan Haim – who identified himself earlier this year as the anonymous whistleblower who provided evidence of the ongoing so-called “sex change procedures” for children as young as 11 to Manhattan Institute journalist Christopher Rufo last year – had U.S. Marshals show up at his home earlier this month, summoning him to court to face four felony counts of alleged HIPAA violations.

The now-revealed multiple count indictment alleges that Haim obtained protected individual health information for patients who were not under his care and without authorization.

Haim will appear before U.S. Magistrate Yvonne Y. Ho in Houston at 2 p.m. on Monday.

Rufo broke news of the DOJ’s indictment on X:

The U.S. Attorney’s Office, Southern District of Texas, said in a statement:

The four-count indictment alleges Haim obtained personal information including patient names, treatment codes and the attending physician from Texas Children’s Hospital’s (TCH) electronic system without authorization. He allegedly obtained this information under false pretenses and with intent to cause malicious harm to TCH.

According to the indictment, Haim was a resident at Baylor College of Medicine and had previous rotations at TCH as part of his residency.

In April 2023, Haim allegedly requested to re-activate his login access at TCH to access pediatric patients not under his care. The indictment alleges he obtained unauthorized access to personal information of pediatric patients under false pretenses and later disclosed it to a media contact.

If convicted, Haim faces up to 10 years in federal prison and a $250,000 maximum possible fine.

FBI conducted the investigation. Assistant U.S Attorney Tina Ansari is prosecuting the case.

Haim has always maintained that no medical privacy laws were broken when he provided evidence of TCH’s continued transgender program to Rufo. He and his legal team remain uncertain about the details of the charges and will have to wait until Monday, June 17.

“It’s my responsibility as a doctor, as a physician, to expose this to the public,” Haim told the Daily Wire. “If I don’t, then this abuse can continue. I knew that future generations, like my children, would never be able to forgive me if they knew I had the chance to do something and I decided to stay silent.”

“It requires average, everyday doctors to stand up and speak out against things like this,” said the 33-year-old general surgeon.

Part of a larger, troubling pattern by the Biden DOJ

The DOJ’s investigation, which began nearly a year ago, and the looming prosecution of Haim is largely seen as an intimidation tactic intended to enforce silence on those who would otherwise speak out against the favored policies of the Biden regime in general and against those who object to child-mutilating “gender transition” surgeries and chemical interventions in particular.

“This is not the first time that we’ve seen the Justice Department behave this way, wielding executive power to intimidate both political opponents and cultural enemies,” National Review’s Madeleine Kearns said in an interview. “We’ve seen this with pro-life Americans, traditionalist Catholics, even vaccine skeptics. And… it looks like they’re trying to bully their enemies into kind of going along.”

“With a staggering 99.6% success rate in court, some federal investigations under the Biden administration’s Department of Justice (DOJ) are drawing scrutiny for alleged partisan bias and the little-known problem of overcharging – fueling calls for urgent reform among experts,” Fox News journalist Jamie Joseph recently explained.

“We have just lost our damn minds when it comes to criminal prosecution,” healthcare defense attorney Ron Chapman told Fox News Digital in an interview. “Ninety-five percent of cases do not go to trial, because prosecutors can find fuzzy statutes to get such high maximums or even mandatory minimums at play, which force innocent people to plead guilty. And that’s what we’re dealing with – we’re dealing with tons of innocent people who may not be innocent of all the crimes, but they’re innocent of the ones that were overcharged against them.”

“It’s a bigger problem than people think,” FBI whistleblower Kyle Seraphin told Fox News Digital. “Most Americans don’t realize that there could be an active national security investigation on anyone. That’s the thing that should scare the bejesus out of Americans.”

The poll among prospective voters between the ages of 18 and 29 found Trump trailing Joe Biden by only two points at 47 percent to Biden’s 45 percent. Another poll conducted by the Quinnipiac Polling Institute found Trump leading with registered voters in the 18 to 34 age group by one point.

A new poll has found that former President Donald Trump could end up winning the youth vote in the upcoming presidential election.

Former President George H.W. Bush was the last Republican to win the youth vote during a presidential election back in 1988. But a new New York Times/Siena poll believes Trump is very close to ending the 36-year reign of Democrat over this demographic.

The poll among prospective voters between the ages of 18 and 29 found Trump trailing Joe Biden by only two points at 47 percent to Biden’s 45 percent. Another poll conducted by the Quinnipiac Polling Institute found Trump leading with registered voters in the 18 to 34 age group by one point.

In 2020, exit polling showed that Biden won the 18 to 29-year-old vote by 24 percentage points. Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton won this same demographic by 19 points in 2016.

Trump offering policies that cater to preferences of younger American voters

Analysts are suggesting that Trump is offering policies that cater to the preferences of younger voters even if those proposals don’t map neatly to the conservative consensus within the Republican Party. Axios journalist Neal Rothschild is suggesting three key policy proposals that have made Trump stand out among his colleagues in the GOP: TikTok, cryptocurrency and tipping.

Firstly, after a proposal to ban TikTok received bipartisan support in Congress and got the approval of Biden’s White House, Trump baffled conservative China hawks by coming out against a unilateral ban.

The electoral upside of such a stance is clear given TikTok’s popularity among younger Americans, and support for a ban is lowest among the young voter demographic. Trump himself is attempting to appeal to young voters by going on TikTok himself and posting content on the platform.

Secondly, Trump has increasingly embraced the world of cryptocurrency. He has promoted Trump-themed NFTs (non-fungible tokens), vowed to end the federal government’s regulatory hostility to crypto and endorsed the possibility of the U.S. government mining bitcoin as a way to help America become “energy dominant.” This stance is in contrast with the Biden administration’s posture toward the industry.

Finally, Trump has recently vowed to get rid of tip taxation in comments made at a recent rally in Las Vegas.

“For those hotel workers and people that get tips, you’re going to be very happy. Because when I get to office, we are going to not charge taxes on tips,” said Trump.

“You do a great job of service. You take care of people. And I think it’s going to be something that really is deserved,” he added. “So those people that have jobs in restaurants, whatever the job may be, a tipping job, we’re not going after for taxes anymore.”

As much as 43 percent of all adults in the U.S. have personally worked in a job where their income relied on tipping. The allure of having a significant portion of their income not subject to taxation is a clear one, especially since service industry workers like those in hotels and restaurants skew young.

Pope Francis faces a United Nations human rights investigation for allegedly authorizing illegal wiretaps on British financier Raffaele Mincione during a Vatican embezzlement trial involving the sale of luxury London real estate.

(LifeSiteNews) — Pope Francis faces a U.N. investigation for allegedly authorizing illegal wiretappings of phones during the Vatican embezzlement trial linked to the sale of luxury London real estate.

The Telegraph reported on Sunday that lawyers of British financier Raffaele Mincione, who is accused of defrauding the Vatican in a London real estate deal, filed a complaint to the United Nations for alleged human rights abuses committed by the Pope during the trial.

According to the Telegraph, the complaint is addressed to the U.N. special rapporteur on the independence of judges and lawyers, Professor Margaret Satterthwaite, and lists the Pope as a “perpetrator” of human rights abuses.

Leading human rights lawyer Rodney Dixon, who represents Mincione, has accused Francis of personally authorizing illegal wiretaps of Mincione’s phone during investigations into the investor’s alleged wrongdoing.

“This unreasoned authorisation to prosecutors by an absolute monarch greenlit the undertaking of surveillance without the articulation of definite reasons, ongoing judicial or other independent and impartial supervision, or a mechanism by which to challenge the implementation of the surveillance before an independent and impartial tribunal,” Dixon argued.

During the Vatican embezzlement trial, which began in 2021, reports emerged that the Roman Pontiff authorized phone wiretaps during investigations into the financial scandal.

The New York Post pointed out that in April 2021 Pope Francis amended Vatican law to facilitate prosecutions for cardinals and bishops. Days later, the Pontiff reportedly ordered “the adoption of technological tools suitable for intercepting fixed and mobile devices, as well as any other communication, including electronic ones,” according to leaked documents.

Shortly thereafter, Vatican officials and Italian police officers reportedly seized Mincione’s phones and computer while the businessman was on vacation.

In December of last year, a Vatican tribunal convicted Mincione, alongside Cardinal Angelo Becciu and several other defendants, sentencing him to five-and-a-half years in prison.

In his complaint to the U.N., Dixon argued that Mincione cannot be sentenced by a Vatican court on the basis of canon law for a “secular transaction.”

“It is not appropriate for religious tenets to be imposed on the regulation of a secular transaction without the consent of those involved in the transaction,” Dixon said in the complaint.

Dixon also criticized the alleged surveillance of Mincione’s lawyers while they were in Rome for the trial in front of the Vatican tribunal. He said the lawyers seemed to be “victims of interference if not intimidation” at the “instigation” of the Vatican.

Mincione told the Telegraph:

My basic rights have been trampled on and been ignored. How can it be correct that I have been handed criminal penalties for breaches of spiritual law which only applies to members of the Church, which don’t seem to apply to anyone else that handles the Vatican’s investments, and which I didn’t know anything about?

The Telegraph report states that Mincione is appealing his conviction by the Vatican court “on the basis that he was actually cleared of the criminal offences from the original indictment and only convicted of new offences introduced at the 11th hour and based on the Vatican’s canonical – religious, not criminal – law.”

The Vatican has maintained that it acted lawfully. The Telegraph quotes a Vatican spokesperson who said, “The legitimacy of the investigations and the correspondence of the Vatican judiciary system to the principles of fair trial has been recognised by various foreign courts.”

The Vatican trial around the luxury London flat

The Vatican embezzlement trial involving Mincione, Cardinal Becciu, and other defendants chiefly centered on a Vatican property investment in London, which Becciu authorized as Substitute for General Affairs at the Vatican Secretariat of State. In 2014, Becciu bought a stake in 60 Sloane Avenue, a luxury London real estate development using charitable funds from the Vatican as collateral for loans of 200 million euros (around $260 million using conversion rates at the time) that were then funneled through a fund operated by Raffaele Mincione.

Mincione joined Becciu in the dock, was found guilty of “embezzlement” and money laundering, and was handed the same sentence of five-and-a-half years in jail, an €8,000 fine, and a permanent ban on public office.

Mincione’s company had purchased the property in 2012 and sold a stake in it to the Vatican. When the Vatican finalized its buyout in 2018 – courtesy of Becciu and Monsignor Mauro Carlino, Becciu’s former secretary – Mincione made around £128 million from the Vatican in the process.

It was these transactions that Becciu is believed to have “personally authorized” and to have kept them hidden from attention of Cardinal George Pell, then-Prefect of the Secretariat for the Economy.

As controversy and scandal grew around the property in late 2020, the Vatican initiated its own corruption investigation into Becciu’s dealings in late 2020 – by which time he was prefect of the Congregation for the Causes of Saints, and had been since 2018. Francis at this point accepted Becciu’s resignation, when the cardinal renounced his cardinal privileges, while retaining the title.

Becciu was then indicted July 2021 by the Vatican Tribunal with Mincione and eight others also indicted for corruption. Becciu was personally charged with “embezzlement and abuse of office, also in collaboration, as well as subornation.”

In July 2022, the Vatican sold the London building at the heart of the ongoing investigation, with a reported loss of $200 million, as the AP estimated the Vatican had spent around €350 million (around $359 million) in purchasing the building initially.

In December 2023, the Vatican court sentenced nine of the 10 defendants, including Mincione and Becciu, to financial penalties and jail time.

Becciu and his lawyers have maintained his innocence and claimed that Pope Francis himself had supported the London investment deal.

LGBTQIAAP2S+ is a dangerous religious cult.

A trio of teenagers from Spokane, Wash., is facing felony charges after the boys were caught making their mark on a giant LGBT flag mural on the street.

Ruslan Turko, 19, along with two other teenagers who are underage allegedly rode their scooters over a freshly painted LGBT street mural, leaving marks all over it. They were arrested and charged with first-degree “malicious mischief,” the penalty for which could be up to 10 years in prison.

On top of that, prosecutors are asking for $15,000 bail, this despite the fact that the boys harmed nobody – all they did was speak their truth in a public place atop a gargantuan shrine to perversion that quite frankly has no business being painted on a public street in the first place.

Keep in mind that there are no penalties for burning or defecating on an American flag, nor can someone get in trouble for spitting on a veteran (unless the veteran can successfully argue that the spitting constituted assault).

“In America, you can spit on Vietnam veterans, defecate on the U.S. flag, threaten the lives of U.S. Supreme Court Justices, mock Christianity, and burn entire cities to the ground in the name of a career felon,” reported Revolver.

“But if you dare to trample on the rainbow flag, oh, there will be serious hell to pay, mister.”

Freedom is dying

The massive street mural devoted to “the kinky homosexual lifestyle” and other LGBT perversions is a centerpiece in downtown Spokane. Visitors are expected to honor it at all times or else face charges of a “hate crime.”

When witnesses at nearby O’Doherty’s Irish Grille on Spokane Falls Boulevard and Howard Street saw the boys riding around on Lime scooters purposely making skid marks on the LGBT flag mural, they called the police. From there, the boys were arrested and taken in for questioning.

A similar incident occurred back in February when a Florida teen was arrested and charged with felony criminal mischief for leaving tire burnout marks on a perversion flag painted in the middle of an intersection in that state.

Again, it is perfectly okay in America today to burn the American flag near the White House on Independence Day:

It is not, however, okay to ride your vehicle, bike or scooter in a “mean” way across a giant perversion flag painted on a public right-of-way funded by taxpayers, many of whom oppose LGBT perversion.

“This type of forced, government-mandated behavior is akin to Taliban-level religious tyranny,” Revolver warns about the double standard for LGBT. “It’s the left’s version of Sharia Law and should be called ‘Rainbow Law.’”

“That’s how incredibly dangerous and stifling the LGBTQ+++ movement has become – all by design. It was never about just ‘holding hands in public’ and tax breaks. The LBGTQ+++ movement, like everything on the left, is about power, control, and regulating thoughts and behavior, much like your typical run-of-the-mill Islamic radical.”

Kremlin has said the agreement seeks to boost regional stability and is not directed against third countries.

Russian President Vladimir Putin has approved the draft of a strategic partnership treaty with North Korea, which is expected to be signed during his upcoming visit to Pyongyang.

The Russian leader will begin a two-day state visit to North Korea on Tuesday, which will include a face-to-face meeting with the country’s leader, Kim Jong-un, as well as talks on a wide range of issues, including security, the economy, and the international agenda.

Hours before Putin’s scheduled arrival in Pyongyang, Moscow released a presidential decree stating that it accepts “the proposal of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs on the signing of… Comprehensive Strategic Partnership Agreement between the Russian Federation and the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea.”

The signing of the deal will take place “at the highest level.” The decree also allows the Russian Foreign Ministry to “introduce changes to the draft agreement that are not of a fundamental nature.”

Putin’s foreign policy aide, Yury Ushakov, said on Monday that the treaty will supersede several agreements between the two countries dating back to the Soviet era and the early 2000s.

Ushakov noted that the treaty “will outline the prospects for further cooperation” and will take into account recent developments in relations between Moscow and Pyongyang.

The agreement, he added, “will not be confrontational and directed against any countries, but will be aimed at ensuring greater stability in the North-East Asia region.”

The announcement came after Putin said earlier this month that Russia intends to develop relations with North Korea “whether anyone likes it or not.” In an article for the North Korean daily Rodong Sinmun published on Monday, he also said that Moscow and Pyongyang “will develop alternative trade and mutual settlements mechanisms not controlled by the West, jointly oppose illegitimate unilateral restrictions, and shape the architecture of equal and indivisible security in Eurasia.”
