Whistleblower nurse claims FBI turned up at her door and threatened her after she accused America's...

[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] … largest children's hospital of illegally giving kids free sex change operations.

A whistleblower nurse who accused America's largest children's hospital of illegally using Medicaid benefits to offer children free sex change operations claims the FBI showed up at her doorstep and threatened her.

Vanessa Sivadge told journalist Chris Rufo that her employer, the Texas Children's Hospital, was violating state law by using the benefits to provide sex change operations to minors.

She further alleged that doctors at the hospital were manipulating patients into accepting 'gender-affirming care, and said she believed that some families feared the doctors would call Child Protective Services if they dissented.

But after speaking with Rufo about what she had seen, Sivadge claimed two FBI agents showed up at her door - sharing doorbell camera footage with him showing two plain-clothes agents knocking on the door and asking for her.

As she approached the men, one of the agents began asking her about her work.

'I'm sure you're aware of some of the things that have been going on at your work lately,' he says in the video, which Rufo shared to X.

When she replies that she is, the agent then asks if he could come inside to 'let me do my song and dance.'

From there, Sivadge claims the agents began to threaten her.

'They threatened me,' she told Rufo. 'They promised they would make life difficult for me if I was trying to protect the leaker. They said I was not safe at work and claimed that someone at my workplace had given my name to the FBI.'

Sivadge is now the second employee at Texas Children's Hospital to make such claims.

Last year, Dr. Ethan Haim - a surgeon who completed his residency at the hospital - leaked documents showing that TCH staff had provided puberty blockers and other sex-change treatments to children, even after hospital officials said they had stopped the procedures in March 2022.

Just one month after leaking the documents, Haim said he received a knock on his door from FBI agents who handed him a letter identifying him as a 'potential target' in a federal probe.'

'I was given a target letter signed by a federal prosecutor that stated I was being criminally investigated for a case regarding medical records,' he said.

Haim now argues that such tactics are a 'blatant attempt at political intimidation,' claiming the prosecution is 'driven by a highly ideological division within the Department of Health and Human Services.'

Officials seek to 'silence whistleblowers who expose institutionalized medical corruption and the dangers of these hormone-based interventions for confused, adolescent children,' he said.

#1  The FBI wants to see our papers. Our papers are not in order. This could be a problem for us. They will visit us again in the near future to further intimidate us.
