You won’t believe who AG Garland was just appointed to the Corrections Advisory Board – Townhall

President Joe Biden’s Justice Department, headed by Attorney General Merrick Garland, will stop at nothing to push his “woke” agenda by any means possible.

In June, Townhall revealed how the DOJ targeted a Texas doctor who exposed a hospital-based child sex-reassignment program. Townhall reported how Dr. Eithan Haim came forward to the City Journal and revealed that Texas Children’s Hospital lied about ending experimental, irreversible transgender services for children. These services are offered to children as young as 11 and include puberty blockers, hormone treatments and sex reassignment surgery.

Haim now faces a felony charge of violating HIPAA.

Now the Justice Department is promoting its pro-transgender ideology in another way.

Fox News reported this week that Garland had appointed a left-leaning state prison official to serve on the Justice Department’s National Institute of Corrections (NIC) advisory board.

Cheryl Strange was first appointed to the position of Washington State Corrections Secretary by Democratic Gov. Jay Inslee in May 2021. Strange played a key role in establishing so-called “gender-affirming care” for inmates who believe that are “transgender” (via Fox News):

Among the policies implemented was one that searches or other searches would be “conducted by a correctional officer of the gender formally requested by the transgender individual.” For example, a biologically male inmate who identifies as a trans woman may request that a female warden conduct the search.

In a statement Monday, Strange said, “This is a great honor at the end of my career.”

“In Washington State, we have implemented leading national reforms that have created a more humane corrections system while improving public safety. I look forward to engaging with other national leaders at the federal and state levels of government on approaches that can be implemented at the national level,” Strange added.

NIC works “to influence the policies, practices, and operations of correctional agencies across the country” in both the federal and state correctional systems, according to its website.

“Secretary Strange’s appointment is a testament to her lifelong commitment to public service and reform,” Federal Bureau of Prisons Director Colette Peters said in a news release Monday. “Her progressive leadership has transformed Washington State’s corrections system by prioritizing both public safety and humane treatment, and her vision and experience will be invaluable as the NIC and Advisory Council work to raise the standard of corrections across the state .”
