Had an insightful meeting with AACAP to discuss how they’re advancing child and adolescent mental health.
 
In Congress, it starts by stopping proposed Republican cuts to Medicaid programs that help kids and teens access the mental and behavioral health care that they need.

He opined that it would be “more than disappointing” if AACAP ultimately chose not to retract the study. “That would be outrageous,” he said.

We've said it before, and we'll say it again: denying lifesaving healthcare to children is morally reprehensible and factually indefensible.

These decisions belong to families and doctors, not politicians and bigots.

In case anyone is wondering, the recent US report on gender flies in the face of the recommendations of every major medical organization in the country (AACAP, AAP, AES, AMA, and so on) and is nothing more than politics masquerading as science. The whole country deserves better.

in that his suit successfully pressured the journal’s owner, the AACAP, and its publisher, Elsevier, into amending the study last year with an “expression of concern” (EoC).

“The good news is we got the EoC,” as Murgatroyd put it to the nonprofit news site Retraction Watch.

Yet again: hmm, who do I trust? Some rando on social media who is howling conspiracy theories because they seem to have a creepily outsized need to control other kids’ and teens’ bodies, or the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry? 🙄🙄🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ www.aacap.org/AACAP/Policy...

George (Skip) Murgatroyd (Attorney): The article is still up. I requested a retraction. It now has an Expression of Concern.
Several Keller et al. authors now are/were leaders/editors at AACAP - making it even more convoluted.

The AACAP flagged Study 329 online on September 30, 2025, after Murgatroyd’s complaint was filed, noting that its journal wants to “alert readers to concerns that have been raised about the article.” “Further review is underway,” the journal’s notice reads,

I keep thinking about all the women (and some men too) who were sexually abused as children. The Epstein cesspool release has got to be disturbing to them and their families, evoking dreadful memories and feelings of shame and anger.
