State Department Classifies ‘Mutilation of Children’ as Human Rights Violation in New Report

President Donald Trump’s State Department is classifying “destructive ideologies” formerly promoted by the Biden administration in the United States as human rights violations.

The State Department’s annual Country Reports on Human Rights Practices will now account for transgender procedures for minors, DEI hiring, attacks on free speech, and state-funded abortions, a State Department official told The Daily Signal.

“In recent years, new destructive ideologies have given safe harbor to human rights violations,” principal deputy spokesperson Tommy Pigott said. “The Trump administration will not allow these human rights violations, such as the mutilation of children, laws that infringe on free speech, and racially discriminatory employment practices, to go unchecked. We are saying enough is enough.”

The State Department submits Human Rights Reports on all countries receiving assistance and all United Nations member states to Congress in accordance with the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 and the Trade Act of 1974.

Member states will be required to count the number of abortions taking place in their countries, and they will be denounced for funding abortions or the distribution of drugs which end an unborn baby’s life.

The new instructions for the report require that U.S. officials note the following “infringements” on human rights in foreign countries:

• Sex-change procedures for minors, such as hormone replacement regimens or irreversible transgender surgeries.
• Government funded abortions or abortifacient drugs, as well as the total estimated number of annual abortions.
• Arrests, administrative penalties, and “official investigations or warnings” for speech or “hate speech.”
• The enforcement of policies like affirmative action or diversity, equity, and inclusion that “provide preferential treatment” to workers on the basis of race, sex, or caste.
• The facilitation of mass or illegal migration across a country’s territory into other countries.
• Attempts to coerce individuals into engaging in euthanasia.
• Violations of religious freedom, including antisemitic violence and harassment.
• Medical abuses, including forced testing, forced organ harvesting, and eugenic gene-editing practices on human embryos.
