In this episode of "From the Heart: Voice of a Conservative American Woman," host RuthAnn Hogue speaks with Kristy Pandora Greczowski, a transgender activist since 2015, about the Supreme Court's ruling on June 18, 2025, regarding United States v. Skrmetti.
This case concerns a Tennessee law (SB1) that prohibits doctors from providing certain medical treatments, such as puberty blockers or hormones, to minors for gender transition, while still allowing them for other medical reasons like birth defects or diseases. The Supreme Court upheld the Tennessee law, ruling it does not unfairly discriminate and is constitutional.
Kristy Pandora, who identifies as a man who presents as feminine and has been living as a transgender woman since 2010, shares her unique perspective on this ruling. She supports the law, believing it protects minors from medical treatments they may not fully understand and stands with parents who want to shield their children from what she calls "the dark side of the rainbow." Kristi emphasizes that "transgender" has become an "ideological trap word" and an "umbrella term" that has appropriated the medical condition of gender dysphoria. She argues that the far left has used this term to push a "pseudo-religious ideological social construct redesign of gender and sexuality."
Kristy also shares her personal experiences with transition, noting that it's an adult decision that requires a full understanding of one's body, mentality, psyche, and spirituality, which children cannot fully grasp. She raises concerns about the long-term effects of hormone replacement therapy and surgeries, including bone loss and emotional struggles, and criticizes the current system for lacking proper diagnostics and accountability for detransitioning individuals. She states that there's no such thing as a "trans kid" because even adults in the trans community don't agree on the social construct of gender.
Kristy advocates for counseling and a shift in federal funding towards the diagnostic and mental health aspects of gender dysphoria, separating it from ideological belief systems. She believes parents should have control over their children's ideological direction regarding gender. Kristy also discusses her journey from being a "far-left social justice warrior" and part of the trans adult industry to becoming a conservative and supporter of the MAGA movement, driven by concerns about substance abuse within the transgender community and social media manipulation. She views the MAGA movement as her "family" and advocates for equal rights and American liberty for all.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
