Video footage pertaining to show the moment two FBI agents intimidated a Texas nurse has gone viral.
The footage relates to a major healthcare scandal in which nurse Vanessa Sivadge alleged that the Texas Children’s Hospital illegally billed Medicaid for transgender procedures. Medicaid is not permitted to be used on so-called “gender reaffirming” treatment.
Savidge, who worked extensively with the hospital’s transgender patients, realised she was unwittingly participating in a secret “gender-affirming” clinic despite previous public promises by the hospital to close it down.
A City Journal report in May 2023 detailed how an anonymous whistleblower – now known to be Savidge – provided documents on the secret continuation of the program, which included providing young children with implantable puberty blockers.
Christopher F. Rufo, who broke the scandal, shared a detailed thread on X about the story including a video from shortly after its original publication in May last year.
In the clip (at the beginning of this article), two FBI agents can be seen asking for Savidge at what appears to be her home.
“I’m sure you’re aware of some of the things that have been going on at your work lately,” says one of the agents in the clip, before asking whether they could “sit down for a minute and let me do my song and dance” when the footage ends.
Savidge later claimed that she was intimidated by the officers due to her sharing of the allegations.
Many responded in outrage at the allegations in response to the video.
On the other hand, some questioned as to why Savidge let the officers in.
