Gender Reassignment Surgery for Everyone and New Forms of Human Conception in USA. ‘Something Terrible’ from Voskresensky and Elfimov Fact-checked

Also, both Yelfimov and Voskresenskiy discussed Michelle Obama, the wife of the 44th President of the United States, Barack Obama.

While the Democratic Party in the US was holding a convention to nominate a new presidential candidate to replace Joe Biden, something “terrible” was reported on at the Belarus pro-government Radio “Minsk”. Both political scientist Vadim Yelfimov and politician Yuriy Voskresenskiy claimed that mobile operating rooms roamed the streets of Chicago, offering free gender reassignment surgery to anyone who wanted it. Michelle Obama, meanwhile, confessed to using a new method of human conception. The team at Weekly Top Fake got to the bottom of this.

The Democrats held their convention on August 19th, 2024, nominating Kamala Harris as their new presidential candidate to replace Joe Biden. 

On August 21st, 2024, both political scientist Vadim Elfimov and politician Yuri Voskresensky discussed that event on “Radio Minsk”. The YouTube video of their conversation was titled “SOMETHING TERRIBLE! The US presidential race.”

Elfimov claimed that the Democrats had deployed mobile operating rooms around Chicago to offer free gender reassignment surgery during their convention.

“I have an important announcement for our listeners and viewers regarding an event that hasn't received enough attention yet. It's a fact. Medical vehicles have been dispatched from the Democrat convention in Chicago,” Elfimov said.

“Ambulances.” Voskresensky clarified.

“No, they're not ambulances. They're large, mobile operating rooms, driving around Chicago, offering free services: abortions and gender reassignment surgery — anyone can come in and change their gender,” Elfimov explained.

“So, one goes in as a man and out as... Well, you know, it's a dream come true for our Ukrainian colleagues,” Voskresensky added.

In fact, the Planned Parenthood mobile clinic near the venue of the Democratic Party convention was offering free medical abortions and vasectomies. This was reported by Chicago media.

Vasectomy is not a gender reassignment, but male sterilization for men who do not want to have children. But after this operation, they do not cease to be men.

The mobile clinic is in no way associated with the Democrats. And the clinic's initiative discussed was a form of promoting its services.

Neighboring states have bans on abortions, which has led to an increase in the flow of patients to Illinois, where Chicago is located.

Also, both Yelfimov and Voskresenskiy discussed Michelle Obama, the wife of the 44th President of the United States, Barack Obama. She spoke at the Democratic Party convention in support of Kamala Harris.

Yelfimov heard in her speech a story about the use of new forms of human conception.

“What's more, she confessed in front of everyone at the convention that she once had a child…  I'm quoting now, I don't know how you'll understand this, that she had a child who was conceived through artificial insemination,” the political scientist noted.

“Not from Barack?” Voskresenskiy clarified.

“Not from Barack Obama. And Barack Obama was next,” Yelfimov replied.

“And what's written on the birth certificate?” Voskresenskiy asked another question.

“She didn't say which one. But a strange phrase 'had a child'. Had? Disappeared? It's not clear. But the point is not in that. The point is that she is declaring about some new forms of human existence as a being,” Yelfimov explained.

In reality, in her speech, Michelle Obama said:

“Cutting our health care takes away our freedom to control our bodies, and the freedom to become a mother through IVF like I did.”

This is all she said about her child in this speech. In English, IVF stands for In Vitro Fertilization, which means fertilization in a test tube. The fertilization of the egg cell by a sperm cell occurs in a test tube under the control of medical professionals, and then the embryo is transplanted into the woman's uterus.

IVF is not a new form of human existence, as Yelfimov suggested. This method of conception has been known since the late 1970s and has helped many couples who cannot conceive naturally. It is also used in Belarus. The first test-tube baby was born here in 1995. And since 2021, one free IVF attempt has been offered in state clinics.

It's well known that Michelle Obama turned to IVF, writing about it in her 2018 book. A natural pregnancy ended in a miscarriage, leading her to undergo the procedure at age 35. This doesn't mean her child wasn't fathered by her spouse. IVF can use the partner's sperm or that of a donor.
