🚨 Major developments on two fronts:

1️⃣ The American Society of Plastic Surgeons recommends delaying gender-affirming surgeries for minors until age 19, citing evidence that many children’s gender dysphoria resolves naturally by adulthood. A historic shift follows a $2M malpractice lawsuit in New York, highlighting the legal and moral questions around irreversible procedures on children.

2️⃣ Meanwhile, 700 ICE agents are being pulled from Minneapolis, leaving federal law enforcement in chaos amid violent protests and illegal roadblocks. Public support for enforcing immigration laws is strong, yet messaging failures have created confusion and demoralized conservative bases.

🎧 In this episode, we break down the implications for minors’ rights, law enforcement, federal policy, and political strategy — including why failing to message effectively can cost more than just public opinion.
