Fact check: Advocated for imprisoning doctors who provide gender-affirming care, and called for “Nuremberg-style trials” for them.

1. Summary of the results

The original statement claims that an individual advocated for imprisoning doctors who provide gender-affirming care and called for “Nuremberg-style trials” for them. According to the analyses, multiple sources confirm this claim, including ^[1], which states that Charlie Kirk advocated for imprisoning doctors who provide gender-affirming care and called for 'Nuremberg-style trials' for them, as seen in his statements from 2023 and 2024 ^[1]. Additionally, ^[2] directly quotes Charlie Kirk from his show, where he explicitly states that doctors providing gender-affirming care should be put in prison and calls for 'Nuremberg-style trials' for them, supporting the claim ^[2]. Other sources, such as ^[3], mention Attorney General Pam Bondi stating that 'Medical professionals and organizations that mutilated children in the service of a warped ideology will be held accountable by this Department of Justice,' which implies support for the claim of advocating for imprisoning doctors who provide gender-affirming care ^[3]. However, not all sources directly address the claim, with some discussing investigations into health systems or reviews of medical interventions for children and adolescents with gender dysphoria ^{[4] [5]}.

2. Missing context/alternative viewpoints

Some sources provide alternative viewpoints on the issue, such as ^[6], which mentions the Department of Justice issuing subpoenas to doctors and clinics involved in performing transgender medical procedures on children, which could be seen as a form of investigation or prosecution ^[6]. Additionally, ^[7] discusses restrictions on gender-affirming care and opposition to these restrictions from medical organizations, highlighting the controversy and debate surrounding this issue ^[7]. Key context that is missing from the original statement includes the specific statements made by Charlie Kirk, as well as the broader controversy and debate surrounding gender-affirming care. Furthermore, sources such as ^[8] and ^[9] provide additional context on the FBI's initiative to investigate doctors and clinics providing gender-affirming care, and the Trump administration's efforts to restrict access to gender-affirming care for minors ^{[8] [9]}.

3. Potential misinformation/bias in the original statement

The original statement may be misleading or biased as it does not provide full context of the issue, and may be selectively presenting information to support a particular viewpoint. For example, the statement does not mention the controversy and debate surrounding gender-affirming care, or the opposition to restrictions on this care from medical organizations ^[7]. Additionally, the statement may be sensationalized by using the term "Nuremberg-style trials", which could be seen as inflammatory or provocative ^{[1] [2]}. Charlie Kirk and his allies may benefit from this framing, as it allows them to present themselves as strong advocates for their cause, while medical organizations and LGBTQ+ advocacy groups may be harmed by this framing, as it could lead to further restrictions and stigma against gender-affirming care ^{[3] [7]}.
