A disturbing interview from a far-left activist is shedding new light on the coordinated efforts of radical organizations and individuals who aim to push irreversible transgender procedures on children, and New Mexico is at the center of this dangerous campaign.
Mandy Giles, founder of the extremist group Parents of Trans Youth, appeared at a protest in Houston this week defending the practice of transporting minors across state lines for so-called “gender-affirming care,” which often includes hormone injections, puberty blockers, and genital mutilation surgeries. In the interview, she confirmed that New Mexico—a state with virtually no restrictions on transgender procedures for minors—is one of the top destinations for these procedures.
“There’s not many surrounding states… the closest to us is New Mexico—to Albuquerque—which is a long way away,” Giles told the interviewer when asked where Texas families are going for such procedures. “A lot of families are finding care in Washington State, Oregon, Colorado, Massachusetts, New York…”
That shocking admission highlights how New Mexico, under its Democrat-controlled government, has become a magnet for irreversible, life-altering procedures on vulnerable children. Rather than protecting minors from exploitation, the state has become what critics rightly call a gender mutilation sanctuary—offering surgeries and cross-sex hormones without meaningful oversight, age limits, or parental accountability.
While Texas lawmakers have acted decisively to protect children from these irreversible harms—passing Senate Bill 14, which prohibits doctors from providing puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and transgender surgeries to minors—activists like Giles are working overtime to circumvent these safeguards.
Even more alarming, Giles admitted that nonprofits such as the Campaign for Southern Equality are now actively involved in helping families smuggle children across state lines for these procedures. “They provide navigational help for families to find those clinics and doctors and transportation help,” she said, also referencing financial “microgrants” that grease the wheels of this medically and ethically questionable process.
Giles’ own bio paints a picture of someone deeply embedded in the transgender advocacy machine. A past president of PFLAG Houston and an Equality Texas leadership graduate, she has testified multiple times in opposition to laws designed to protect children from radical gender ideology. Her organization, Parents of Trans Youth, openly promotes affirming minors’ confusion and fast-tracking them toward experimental medical interventions, using her status as a parent of “two nonbinary young adults” to influence other families.
Despite her claims of compassion, Giles is pushing an agenda that many see as deeply harmful and irreversible. The long-term effects of hormone therapies and transgender surgeries are still being studied, but countries like Sweden and the UK have already begun to reverse course, halting youth transition procedures due to mounting evidence of harm.
New Mexico’s role as a destination for these procedures deserves scrutiny. Why are Democrats in the state legislature not only tolerating but encouraging the trafficking of vulnerable minors into their state for irreversible medical experimentation? Why are New Mexico taxpayers footing the bill for policies that could leave a generation of children permanently scarred?
As Texas strengthens its laws to protect children from irreversible harm, New Mexico appears to be racing in the opposite direction—becoming a haven for out-of-state activists who believe ideology should triumph over biology, medical ethics, and common sense.
For the safety of children, this dangerous pipeline must be exposed and stopped.
There are too many of these mentally sick sub-humans in NM, and they keep voting the equally mentally-deranged scumbag politicians into office here pushing these sick agendas. Perhaps the Chinese will do us on the right a favor and develop a virus that targets only those on the left with these insane woke ideas.
I agree with Tom I have told family members if their kids go against God they will be cut out of my will and banned from my home
My family in Albuquerque think my Niece is A “Boy”. I told them it is not possible and you should have heard the anger. I never see or talk to them and do not miss them. I do not want to be around people that stupid. The real problem is that both parents of this girl are teachers In APS. These people should not be allowed to go near or influence other peoples children.
Here’s another reason why we moved out of state. Lots of these erroneous and damaging agendas in New Mexico schools. Its a shame and horrific what New Mexicans are tolerating. And no, dont tell me its the democrats. This would end if the Right would organize, work together and stop pushing the responsibility for change onto others.
Just more children on the sacrificial alter of liberalism, nothing to see here. When is enough going to be enough? Up to birth abortions and child mutations it is all in a days work for the DNC. These people are all criminally mentally ill, it is time to start treating them as such.
Might take a big millstone to sink this fat freak as per Luke 17.
Our state “leadership” has no respect for life…we are a hub for late-term abortion and genital mutilation. No wonder Epstein set up house here!
So new mexico is first in something.
Where in New Mexico is this happening? UNM? Presbyterian?
Private clinics? Where? We need to know!!!
I agree totally. Names must be published and then private conversations must take place communicating clearly that this stops now. This hand wringing accomplishes nothing other than showing weakness.
Come to New Mexico, a great tourist destination. If you want an abortion or to mutilate your child..
This freaking state government is morally bankrupt.
Try and get a doctor for a legitimate procedure. I had to go to Tucson to get my angiogram..
Secede Lea County
Every thing East of the Rio Grande should go back to the Texas Republic.
This is EVIL and Satan inspired. Is there ANYONE in NM who is level heaed, with good morals and values who see that this is So satanic, EVIL and diabolical. I’m so ashamed of NM and it’s so called ‘leadership’. They are trying to had to get to Hell and dragging all of NM down with them. God help us Please.
Vote.
New Mexicans did not ask for this. It’s going against GOD! There are more people in NM that believe in GOD than this trash. Yes it is trash! Believed in GODs ways. This is just evil.
