On July 9, 2025, one of the most significant events in US history occurred. It was an event with huge consequences for families here in Washington state – families whose children are being lied to, brainwashed and manipulated by the Trans Drug Cult in schools all across our state. Yet this remarkable event was barely mentioned by the lying legacy media. The event was a Federal Trade Commission (aka FTC) 8 hour “workshop” on the dangers of “Gender Affirming Care” for minors.

The term “gender affirming care” is extremely misleading because it actually means getting millions of kids in the US addicted to toxic Trans Drugs and then permanently sterilizing them by mutilating their body parts – all to make hundreds of billions of dollars in profits for the Trans Drug Cult – money stolen from us tax payers (as all of us are paying for this insanity through skyrocketing taxes and health insurance premiums). The FTC focused on the crimes being committed by the Trans Drug Cult against the children and parents whose lives were being destroyed by the lies (aka “fraudulent health claims”) of the Trans Drug Cult.

At the end of the workshop, the FTC announced that they intend to bring both civil and criminal charges against those responsible for using lies to harm children. In short, the FTC intends to blow the lid off the Trans Drug Cult. In this article, we will summarize some of the crimes exposed by the FTC workshop – and what you can do to make sure that more people in our state find out about it.

Here is a link to an article about the FTC workshop posted on July 12^th:

Here are some quotes:

“Panelists were reduced to tears during the FTC day-long workshop, featuring multiple panels of experts and detransitioners who shared their stories as the agency assesses whether consumers have been subjected to misleading or unsubstantiated claims about "gender-affirming care."

“The first panel, titled "A Conversation with Parents and Survivors," was moderated by FTC Chairman Andrew Ferguson… Elvira Syed sobbed as she told the story of how her daughter, who struggled with autism but spoke multiple languages and played several musical instruments, took her own life at age 18 amid her gender confusion."They treated her ideology, not her illness.”

“Multiple doctors spoke about the dangers of transgender procedures on minors, including Dr. Patrick Lappert, who participated in a panel titled "What Does the Science Actually Say About Gender-Affirming Care?" He stated: "The transgender treatment industry operates through the use of deceptive labeling and deceptive practices. It mislabels gender affirmation surgery as reconstructive rather than cosmetic, using that deceptive labeling to defraud public and private insurance programs, as well as defrauding families while medicalizing these young people for life."

“A panel titled "How Can the FTC Protect Families from Harm?" featured Brandon Showalter. Showalter, who has extensively reported for years on the harms transgenderism has inflicted upon children, asserted the ideology is incompatible with truth, has led to deceptive trade practices and must therefore be dismantled.”

Here is a quote from FTC Commissioner Mark Meador: “The FTC has an “unequivocal basis” to start investigating the transgender medicine industry after a workshop highlighting stakeholders’ horror stories. A key part of the context of the possible deception and fraud is that doctors told parents of children experiencing gender dysphoria that they can choose between having “a dead son or a living daughter,” or vice versa. The rhetoric implying a child would commit suicide if not allowed to medically transition is “emotional blackmail. “

How the FTC Investigation can help us win the war against the Trans Drug Cult here in Washington state
This FTC Investigation matters here in Washington state not only because tens of thousands of our kids are being harmed by the Trans Drug Cult, but because two of the national leaders of this cult are Chris Reykdal and Bob Ferguson. This FTC Investigation can help us win the war against the Trans Drug Cult here in Washington state.

For many years, both Reykdal and Ferguson have made a series of false claims about the benefits of getting kids addicted to Trans Drugs and sterilizing them. During this entire time, I have written a series of articles pointing out that there was no benefit to drugging kids – and instead, drugging kids was extremely harmful to kids.

The 12 FTC presentations on July 9, 2025 provided a mountain of evidence from the latest studies confirming not only that Reykdal and Ferguson were lying about Trans Drugs being safe and effective – but that those lies broke federal laws. Now all we need to do is get this information in the hands of the parents and voters here in Washington state – and it is highly likely that the voters will toss both Reykdal and Ferguson and the entire Crazy Cult running Olympia out of office.

What we have done to get the truth out about this evil cult
Unfortunately, the FTC workshop was published as a single 8 hour video on the FTC website. Thus, very few people are likely to even find much less watch. To provide better access to each of the 12 sessions that made up the 8 hour workshop, we have broken the 8 hour video into 12 20 to 40 minute presentations – and added a brief introduction to each video. We have then posted all 12 videos on our Washington Family Rights Coalition YouTube channel. This will make it much easier for folks to watch the 12 individual sessions and share these sessions with other concerned citizens. We have also posted transcripts of each of these 12 videos on Washington Family Rights Coalition.org website so that you can download the transcripts, read them, quote them and share them with your friends and neighbors. Our hope is that over time, every parent in Washington state will be able to watch one of more of these 12 important FTC presentations.
