CV NEWS FEED // Biden’s Department of Justice arraigned whistleblower Dr. Eithan Haim in June 2023, the morning he was supposed to graduate from the Texas Children’s Hospital, after he blew the whistle on an illegal child “transgender” medicine clinic. Haim has now been indicted with four felony counts of HIPAA violations by Assistant U.S. Attorney Tina Ansari.
Texas Children’s Hospital CEO Mark Wallace made a public declaration in 2023 that the hospital would be discontinuing its “transgender” medicine program and treatments of minors to comply with Texas statutes. Haim then revealed to the public that the hospital had failed to do as Wallace promised.
Haim, then a graduate student at the hospital, notified journalist Christopher Rufo that the hospital was illegally maintaining its transgender medicine program.
Rufo and Haim both maintain that they took great care to redact personally identifiable information in the documents related to the matter, rejecting the allegation that they violated patient privacy.
“For my own part, I can confirm that nothing in the information provided to me identified any individual; all the documents were, in fact, carefully redacted,” Rufo wrote this week. “Nonetheless, the prosecutor has pressed forward, hoping, at the least, to intimidate other medical professionals who would consider blowing the whistle on the barbarism of ‘transgender medicine.’”
According to Rufo, the importance of Haim’s voice cannot be overstated.
“The Haim case marks an inflection point in the debate on ‘gender-affirming care.’ If Haim prevails, other courageous doctors and medical professionals will follow his lead and speak out,” Rufo wrote. “We will need all their voices if we are to succeed in shutting down the child sex-change business in the United States.”
Haim has set up a legal defense fund to help him fight the charges brought against him by the Biden administration.

“I was given a target letter signed by a federal prosecutor that stated I was being criminally investigated for a case regarding ‘medical records,’” Haim wrote on the fundraiser page:
Since no laws had been violated (no personally identifiable patient health information was disclosed), this was nothing more than a blatant attempt at political intimidation. We believe this case is being driven by a highly ideological division within the Department of Health and Human Services that aims to silence whistleblowers who expose institutionalized medical corruption and the dangers of these hormone-based interventions for confused, adolescent children.
Rufo originally published the story of the hospital’s illegal operation on May 16, 2023, detailing that “despite its public statements, the Houston-based children’s hospital—the largest in the United States—has secretly continued to perform transgender medical interventions, including the use of implantable puberty blockers, on minor children.”
“[Haim] contacted me about how the hospital had lied about terminating the transgender medicine program,” Rufo wrote. Doctors “were, in fact, continuing to perform sex-change procedures on children as young as 11.”
The DOJ and Department of Health and Human Services reportedly threatened Haim in the wake of the news breaking in 2023, stating that the agencies “had identified him as a potential ‘leaker,’ presumably through forensic examination of the hospital’s computer systems,” Rufo reported:
Earlier this week, U.S. marshals appeared at Haim’s home and summoned him to court to face an indictment on four felony counts of violating HIPAA. His initial appearance is next Monday, where he will learn more about the charges against him.
Haim regularly updates his supporters and his story here and has taken his fight to Congress.
