Texas Scorecard By Will Biagini | December 4, 2024
State Rep. Brian Harrison called the motion for a gag order against the surgeon “outrageous.” The U.S. Department of Justice attempted to place a gag order on Dr. Eithan Haim—a Houston doctor who blew the whistle on chemical sex change procedures on minors at Texas Children’s Hospital.
Burke Law Group, the firm representing Haim, explained that the DOJ filed a reply on Monday supporting its motion for a gag order against the whistleblower.
Among other restrictions, the DOJ’s gag order aims to effectively block Haim from retweeting notable figures who came to his support on social media platform X—according to BLG.
Among those listed were several Texas lawmakers, including U.S. Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-CD2) and State Rep. Brian Harrison (R-Midlothian).
“The prosecutors in @eithanhaim’s case are doubling down on their shameless effort to ask the court to censor us and our client on @X,” Burke Law Group stated. “We will continue to zealously represent @EithanHaim’s liberty, and now his (and our) First Amendment right to Free Speech.”
