Rachel Levine Promotes Discredited WPATH on NPR

NPR claims to hold powerful people accountable. It also claims to “follow the science.” In an interview with U.S. Assistant Secretary for Health, Rachel Levine, NPR spectacularly fails at both.

In this video, Peter Boghossian and Matt Thornton first share NPR’s statement to potentially triggered listeners, explaining why the voice of former President Donald Trump was broadcast in an interview. NPR sounds like a kindergarten teacher explaining to a kid mid-tantrum why the class goldfish has to stay in the tank.

This is followed by an interview with Rachel Levine. The reporter, busy stroking Levine’s ego throughout, hasn’t yet learned how to forward NPR’s narrative in stealth mode. While the misinformation is infuriating, it’s hard not to chuckle at the palpable admiration this reporter has for Levine and her staff.

Please note: We received many comments about Peter and Matt referring to Rachel Levine, a biological man, as “she” and “her.” We discussed this issue in the “Viewer Feedback” video. We appreciate hearing diverse viewpoints on this and all issues of consequence.
